Opening Of shorter college.

The fall session of Shorter College
at Rome, Ca. opened Friday with in
teresting and impressive exercises in
the college chapel. After brief devo-
tional service, speeches were made by
Col. d. B. Hamilton, president of the
Board of Trustees. ex-President Gwalt-
ney. President Simmons and pastors of
the several churches. These addresses
were received with enthusiastic appre-
ciation Many visitors from a distance
and the city were present.
The number of students registered
to-day goes far beyond that of any
previous year. and the buildings will
be taxed to accommodate all who are
seeking admission. This is more sig
niflcant when It is remembered that
additional dormitory space has been
added since last June, and that the ca
pacity OF the buildings Is therefore
much greater than formerly.
The old furnace has been taken out
and a magnificent new and modern
heating plant has just been put IN.
Also, several adjacent buildings have
been purchased and added 10 the col

SOME CLUBS HIT HARD.

Number of Surprises in Baseball
Circles as Result of Games Yester-
day.
There were a few surprises among
the baseball leagues yesterday, the
chief of which was the winning of a
double-header by Baltimore from
Washington. AS the result of this
victory, coupled with the loss of a
game by Detroit, Baltimore and that
club are now tied in the last place.
Another unlocked for event was the
defeat of st. Louis by Cleveland in one
game of a double-header. st. Louis
lost one point in percentage and sew
eral as regards it's chances of the PEN
nant, as Philadelphia forged three
points ahead by winning a game from
Boston. In the National League an
other club to fall down, and fall hard,
was Cincinnati, which lost two games
to Chicago.
The standing and percentage Of the
clubs of the three leagues is now as

of the Savannah Athletic Club in its
quarters at Bay and Lincoln streets

Douglas Working at Tybee.
zeigler, the veteran of more than
four hundred battles, is confident of
winning, says his condition is alright,
and that the bout will not go the limit
by any means. Douglas is equally
confident that the long end of the
money will be his, and he has left moth
ing undone that will bring about this
result. He has trained hard and con-
sistently at Tybee for the past three
weeks, ever since the match with Zeig-
Ter was made.
That this work has had the desired
effect of making him strong and fast
is shown by the try-out that he took
yesterday as a sort of finishing touch
to his training. In this try-out he went
three two-minute rounds with three
men and showed remarkably good
form. Douglas has claimed from the
first that he was beaten in his mills
with Tommy Corcoran, only by the
fact that his hands were in bad shape.
He says now that his hands are well,
that he is in fine condition, and that
he will win the bout.
Some bets on the result of the bout
have already been made at even mon
ey. The soldiers Of Fort Screven are
admirers of Douglas and will attend
the bout in large numbers and with a
liberal supply of cash most of which
