STREET TO STAY HERE
PITCHER SAYS HE WILL PLAY
 IN MONTGOMERY.
Manager Whistler Declares That Statements of Abner Powell of Atlanta are Bluffs-Based
 on Ragland's Visit.

Oscar Streit pitcher for Montgomery Black Sox. made the emphatic statement yesterday that he would stay in Mont gomery and that Abner Powell. manase' of the Atlanta team had no claim on him.
 This statement was mads apropos of a story published by The Atlanta Journal concerning conference between Powell and W. H. Ragland, President of the recently in Atlanta. It was said that Mfr. Ragiand agreed to Powelfs claim on Streit and offered to give Powell pitcn- CT in exchange or reimburse the Atlanta
 ..Powell has absolutely no claim on me-" said Streit yesterday afternoon, and intend to remain with the Montgomery club this summer"
 Continuing he said:
 after I had been with the Cleveland American League team Powell wired me asking my terms for finishing the season with that club. My terms were sausfac- tory to them and I pitched the remainder of the season for Atlanta. but not one word was ever said or written me about reserving me for this season. When Man ager Whistler sent me a contract for Montgomery I signed it and intend to stay here.
 Lew Whistler was equally as emphatic
 Powell has no claim on streIt and he knows 1t. 1t Is purely big game of bluff," he said. Powell claims" he con- tinued, that he wrote,to Streit during the past winter reserving him for the coming season and the letter was returned from Birmingham unopened. Now Streit was in Birmingham most of the winter and is very intimate with every empioye Of the Birmingham postofice, and If Powell can produce that letter with the Birmingham date on it he will have shadow to bolster up his claims. Failing to do this he has absolutely nothing to stand on and should muzzie his bluff. At any rate you can state that Oscar Streit will most assured ly stay with Montgomery. My motto Is that nothing is too good for Montgomery and certainly intend to hold on to Oscar Streit.
 "The same thing may be said about Roth," added Whistler. President Kav- anaugh has told everybody concerned that he belongs to Montgomery and will un- doubtedly insist on the catcher coming here s

BURNETTs FAST BUNCH.
Right Fielder Green of Interstate { Team Reaches Montgomery.

Green, the new right fielder for the montgomery Interstate League team reached Montgomery yesterday. With Greens arrival Manager Herk Burnett has twelve of his players with him.
 Matthews, the missing member of the team will reach the city today Bur nett yesterday received a telegram from Matthews saying that he would leave the third twirler of the team. He has been playing with St. Albans College team and is already in good condition.
 The twelve players were out for practice of the fast few days have prevented any very fast work on the part of the locals. They are, however. rounding into shape
 Burnett is confident that he will get at least two out of the three games of the opening series with Brewton. The League season opens at the Highland Park grounds Monday with Brewton against Burnett's bunch
 Brewton's team last summer was a mighty rapid independent team. It was one Of the fastest agsfegations that played in Montgomery during the sum- mer. The Brewton management was not, however. satisfied with what it had and it has strengthened the team con- eiderably. Moore, the second baseman who was with Montgomery awhile and who had previously been with the Phila- delphia National League team is holding down the second sack and explaining the team. Brewton has in addition, the tive Fritzs, ''Scrappy'' Martin, Rouskin. Leigh. ton, O'Brien and Laird
 The Mobile management commissioned Ren Mulford. the we'll known sporting writer, on The Cincinnati Enquirer tC atgn players. Mulford 1t is understood has shipped five or six promising bal players from Cincinnati and its vicinity

salt Bread for pvspeptics.

It has a saltier taste.' he says. than we are accustomed to. but it is very palatable. In fact. he who likes salty things $ apt to like it better than the other kind of bread. A physician asked me about three months ago to make some of this bread for his patients. At first l made six loaves a day, but now I maze thirty.

Morris tribune., 1903-03-28

In Illinois a change in the
public school system is pre-
posed. ALI district schools are
to be consolidated into a town
ship school which will be a
graded school with equipment
equal to that of the smaller
cities and villages, and which
will employ high grade teach
ers. To overcome the objection
of long distances that pupils
would have to travel o.and
from these schools, it is pro-
posed to establish the school
wagon" for the transportation
of scholars on routes to be laid
out and maintained by the
township. The experiment will
be watched with interest by all
friends of better rural schools.
