Baltimores and Philadeiphias proceeded to
their Georgia grounds, but both will cur
tail their stay and work northward as soon
rs possible in order to secure games where
by some monetary returns may be secured.
1t is a matter of history that the weak
eat section of the Union for the national
game Is the south and southeast. Virginia
and Texas alone of all the southern states
have enough baseball enthusiasm TO carry
through season. The Southern league
has been fiat failure for two or three
years past. Probably rest this year will
restore some Of the enthusiasm for base
ball which existed In the southern cities
half dozen years ago.
The application of Emsle, Hurst and
Lynch for an increase Of salary as National
league umpires will probably be granted,
with Sheridan included These four men
are four rare jewels, foupd by trying more
than 100 men. Their recompeDse has been
e240 a month, with all expenses paid, but
as the season Is but little over five months
In duration IL is seen that they have been
more poorly paid than half Of the ball play
ers by whom they are abused President
Young by long experience must appreciate
the worth OF such men on his staff, and as
the League has referred To him the question
of increasing their salaries, with power to
act, he will no doubt grant their request.
There have been umpires in the past
with judgments as good az II not better than
those of Emslie, Hurst, Lynch and Sheri-
dan, but they have fallen out Of the busi-
ness either through indulgence In liquor
or lack of nerve. Ball players will almost
unanimously agree that GafYney was the
best man for correct Judgment who ever
stood behind the plate to call balls and
strikes. But he couldn't overcome the
curse of drink. Young tried him over and
over again in the hope that he would con-
quer his weakness, but to no good result.
Keefe was another whose judgment was
excellent But the once great pitcher
lacked "sand." The players were not slow
in discovering this weak spot, and they
worked it until Keefe gave up in despair.
It is much harder to get good umpire
than it is TO find winning pitcher or
great batsman. And, considering the abuse
to which they daily submit from players
and spectators, Messrs. Emslie, Hurst and
Sheridan are probably the poorest paid
professionals in the United States.

DR.. PirlOt Practiced Medi-
cine in Boston.
Disappeared After the Trial
OF the Baldwin Case.
Story of How He Obtained a Ger
tificate in Massachusetts.

DR.. Julius a. Pirlot, who was found
guilty in the Common Pleas division of
the court fow days ago for practicing
medicine without first obtaining cer-
ficliate from the State Board of Health,
an who was also arrested and fined for
seliing liquor illegally i'm his South Main
street drug store and maintaining "a
nuisance, has a Boston record that does
not seem 20 be crcdiuable Pirlot is out
on bail as he appealed the ease of illegal
liquor selling. His sentence for liquor
selling was so and costs and 10 days in
Jail on each of the four complaints.
IL Is said that the doctor is wanted in
Boston For some years he had an office
in Hotel Pelham, Boston, and resided in
Beachmont. where no had some practice.
AT the latter place, according to the
Boston record, nc had for IA patient the
wife of Gilbert Baldwin, who had been
injured in street car accident After
several months he was substituted by
another doctor, and then sued the hus-
band for over 500 for services. He lost
his case, but in the hearing it was dis
closed that the medicine he gave Mrs.
Baldwin consisted of sea weed and chlor-
ide of potash Medical men testified that
this was likely TO destroy the stomach and
bowels
In the course of the case the medical
standing OF the doctor came under dis
cuss On and he swore that he matriculated
iD "a famous hospital in Paris. In order to
test this the case was continued and the
American consul at Paris caused search
TO be made of the hospital records, which
failed 10 substantiate Pirlot's statement.
The court gave verdict for the defend
ant. The statement made in the trial as
TO his position, IL is claimed, rendered
Pirlot liable TO charge of perjury for by
his presentation of an alleged forged
diploma from Paris he had been given n
certificate of practice in Massachusetts.
Before man who has obtained such n
certificate can be removed from the roll
he must have been convicted for some
offence. When the Baldwin trial was
over Pirlot disappeared before any action
could be taken.
He came TO this city and opened the
small drug store just south of Power
street on South Main street. 1t Is neat
appearing store and it made good inn
preston in the neighborhood as did the
appearance of the doctor, who has n pro
fessionai AIR with some outward show OF
success in his business. He is a little
above the average size and Is equipped
by nature to make a good bluff as a
doctor. The case in the Common Pleas
Court wherein he was found guilty of
practicing medicine without certificate,
has gone up to the Appellate Court on
exceptions.

was not In Boston yesterday, IA he left
soon after concluding the negotiations

ceived from sullivan, now in 81 Louis as
follows: Go ahead as L told you, and
