all OF Pamela's male relatives in
the Colonial army, which is at that
time starving In the historic camp
at Valley Forge. OF course this
does not prevent the British officer
from falling in love with the Colonial
maiden and eventually winning her.
but there is much conflicting patri.
otism and many plots ol war which
threaten the course Of true loye.
The culimation comes when Pa

at the deed brings all her love to
the surface for darcy, and an un.

in Southeastern League In other
Cities.
The movement for a professional
baseball club in Savannah, as the hold
er of one of the franchises of the
Southeastern league, is moving rapidly
forward to an abundant and Astounding
success. Those behind the movement
are evincing their interest in every
step they take and the people of the
city are united in their promised sup
port of the enterprise.
The principal trouble now confront
ing the mana cement is the choice of
grounds upon which to play the games.
The Bolton street ball park is in a
bad state of repair and could scarce
ly be used unless extensive improve
ments were made. The grandstand
and bleachers would have to be re-
quilt and other extensive and expensive
improvements would have to be made.
This would cost a good deal of money
The street railway company would
Nv inc Of
a professional baseball team and the
playing of professional games in the
city, and the management is making
an effort to enlist their support in the
enterprise. 1t is hoped that they will
see their way clear to furnishing the
grounds upon which the games are to
be played, and if this hope is realized
there will be little doubt as to the sue
cess of the baseball season in Savan-
nah.
OF course, if nothing better can be
done, it will be necessary to use the old
grounds on Bolton street, which will
be enlarged, improved and repaired for
the emergency. But 1t is thought that
something better than this can be ac-
complished.
The plan to use the State Fair
grounds has been practically abandon
ed and the street railway company will
be asked to establish a park in some
convenient location near the city.
There is a tract of land near the Ca
thedral Cemetery which is being con-
sidered in this connection and that Of
fers many advantages as a place for
the establishment of ball park. If
this can be secured on reasonable
terms it is not improbable that it will
be used.
Conferences have already taken place
between the hackers of the Savannah
Club and Mr.. George j. Baldwin, who
it is confidently assumed will be at
the head of the trolley car system by
next spring, and though they have not
been productive of definite results,
some understanding has been reached.
The movement for establishing. clubs
in the several cities, which; have been
selected for membership in the league,
