are seen with strings of doves and
cartridges offering them for sale around
the street The hotels and restaurants
are fully supplied. This is also true
of ducks of all varieties.
The recent cold wave drove any
quantity of ducks down before it and
they can be had for the going after
them. At this time of the year proba-
bly, more sport is had in shooting ducks
than any other game. This kind of
sport requires more good hard outdoor
eXertion and more padding around in
water, thing dear to most sea coast
men, than overland hunting, and
seems to bring harder results.
1t is the usual thing Saturday after
noon to see the duck fleet in the Sa-
vannah river prepare for action and
start in two squadrons one up and the
other down the river. Besides many
go out from the salt water resorts into
the creeks and marsh rivers.
While game is plentiful in the
market and sportsmen are finding
plenty it is we'll known fact that
the quantity within easy reach from
the city is not nearly as large as il
should be under proper conditions or
would be if proper measures were
taken to give it protection.
There is much regret among true
sportsmen that the chances are slim
for any protective measures, or at least
any measures to enforce the protection
now offered to be enacted by the
present legislature. Not only should
wardens be provided to enforce the
present protective laws they say, but
some additional protective law should
be enacted to protect our only native
duck, the Wood or, more Familiarity
known, Summer duck is being slaught-
cred and exterminated because of lack
of protection. The duck lives here the
year round and breeds in the swamps
and low woods in the spring. 1t is
just shortly after their breeding sea-
son when they are more plentiful than
at any other time, less able to take
care of themselves than at any other
time and the period of the year when
all other game is protected that they
suffer most. Because of their lack of
protection they become at this period
the target for sportsmen Indifferent
to the preservation of game as well as
for Dot hunters.

that is gratifying, as it gives prestige
10 the track and CITY, as horses are
always stabbed at the best courses in
the country
Two carloads of stock will arrive to-
day or tomorrow and, they likewise
Will winter here. In a day or two
several other carloads. mostly runners
will arrive from Charleston. where
they are now racing, and will remain
mere until spring. When these lat
ter animals have arrived there will be
half a hundred or more of the best
horses in the South at the local course
to Ike kept there and conditioned for
next seasons work
Both Mr.. Morrow and Mr.. Haight
deny in emphatic terms the statement
made by Mr.. I. o. Mcbride, the book
maker, that the harness races recently
held at Jacksonville, were faxed and
arranged before the horses ever went
on the track. This, they say, is not
true and are prepared to make affida-
Wits, If necessary, that there was moth
ing crooked on the part of the horse
owners, though they were approached
With an offer to sell out. This state
ment was made to Mr.. Doyle.
Mr.. Doyle will have the track in per-
feet shape for the meet Christmas aft
ernoon and the sport furnished will
be the best of the kind ever given
here. At the last meet there was a
general. complaint that there was no
running races, and many did not at
tend for that reason. Now, the most
of these races will be running, and as
they will all be close and interesting a
large crowd will no doubt turn out to
see them.
The gentlemen also state that the
races scheduled for Bainbrfdge did NOT
materialize and that they lost money
by going there. They are sore over
the way they were treated and in the
future will be careful that everything
Is right before they take horses TO a

wide open, with nerves OF steel and
muscles of iron. he came laundering
down the home stretch with speed that
was dazzling to the spectators. With

a stride that was grander itself, Cres-

There was cheer. then a roar and
then a tremendous volcanic eruption of

Cresceus will attempt to lower his
record at the track Of the Savannah

pared and the people of Savannah will

TOrnOchichiS and Yacht Club
Doing Better Bowling.

The end of the fifth week of the
1nter-Club Bowling League found the
three teams, Hussars, Tomochichf and
Yacht Club, in the same relative stand
ing as last week. The Hussars in
creased their lead 2 points over the
Tomochichis, and the Yacht Club edged
up some on both Hussars and Tomo-
chichis. Thus far the Yacht Club has
played three games less than the
other teams. At the end of this week,
however, all the teams will have play
ed an equal number of games, and If
the Yacht Club holds the brace it took
in its last game it's standing will be
considerably better.
Of the individual percentages Guam
took leads, with 165 7-21 per cent. /;
Brewer, second, with 1853 2-21, and
Remmler, third, with 1872 2-21. These
three leaders are of the Hussars team.

VIII De Allowed I'm baltimore, Says
the Police Commissioners.
Boxing has received its death knell
in Baltimore as the police commission
ers of that city will issue no permits
for events after the 18th. Two per-
mits for events will be granted for
events before this date. as the men
have advertised the same and been to
considerable expense, but after that
the game is off.
Manager HEREFORD, of the Eureka
Club, of that city, in speaking Of the
action and comparing boxing and foot
ball. says:
why do we not hear protests from
these same gentlemen about the bru-
tally of football? Why. only this
morning 1 read in the Herald that ter
rible list of casualties happening on
the football field this year. Fifteen
killed and thirty-two seriously MANNED
and injured, to say nothing of the hun
dreds slightly injured. A mortality list
equal to that Of pitched battle. And
yet this brutal sport, in which on the
average a man is killed or badly
manned in every game, has the support
of our best people.
THE very same clergyman who re-
CARDS boxing with horror as a brutal
izing sport. attends the football game
and applauds vigorously, while before
his very eyes some poor fellow is carr
ried of the field with his ribs crushed
in or his skull fractured. What howl
would go up IL anything like that hap
pened in boxing. 1t Is funny how you
look at things.
THE worst a man gets I'm boxing is
a bloody nose or a black eye. which
he forgets when he steps out OF the
ring. ] am happy to say, however, that

boxing. Some Of our best citizens re-

BASEBALL'S PROMOTERS
Are Confident street Car Company
viii Furnish Park.


Messrs. Frank and Gilks, the base
ball promoters. are still meeting with
success in their efforts to place team
in this city a part of the Southern
League next summer.
Mr.. Frank said yesterday that all
remaining for the team to be formed Is
for the street car company to do it's
share in the enterprise and that he had
ne doubt but what the company would
do so. President Baldwin, Of the COM
pany, is out of the city but will re-
turn Monday, when the matter of thu
street car company furnishing the
grounds for the Savannah games will
be placed before him, and from the
encouragement given him by the Of
flcials now here he expects no
trouble in carrying through the deal.
Mr. Gilks said that as soon as this
matter is settled and it has been de-
cided to put Savannah in the league
he will leave for the north and west
to get players. He already has sew
eral in view, but will sign none but
the best. He will visit each man
personally and as soon as a sufficient
number have been signed up they will
be sent to this city and at once put
in training for the opening of the sea-
son. 1t is his intention, he says, to put
the best team in Savannah 1t has ever
had.
