Let the dreaming astronomer number each star That at evening peeps out from it's pill low of blue; But a pleasanter study to me is by far The orb that shines over cheek s rosy hue. Let the crazy astrologer search for his fates In the cusps and nodes of his keen luni- inaries; He Is wiser, like me. who his fortune awaits, As 'tls told in the glance that in wo- mans eyes varies Who studies. as do, the stars of the And cares not fig how all other orbs roll. I have studied them many long sum- mer's eve, When the leaves and the waters were quietly singing; And the science and knowledge that such studies leave Is a dream of bright joy, to the memory clipging. It is better than wasting the eyes and the brain, And the season of youth that was given for pleasure. In gaining a science that's useless and vain, As musty old miser piles round him his treasure, I would not give one glance from the eye that love To know all the stars that are clustered above

BALL CASE IS ARGUED
CoETROvERSY OVER LEAGUE
 TEAM IN COURT.
sshancellor ". l.. Parks Heard the lawyers on Petition Filed by W. T. Robertson But Re-
 served Ills Decision.

The injunction proceedings of W. T. Robertson against W. H. Ragiand, Will liam 6. Stickney, and the Montgomery Baseball Association to prevent the play ing of baseball in Montgomery under the control of MT. Ragland was yesterday submitted to Chancellor W. L. Parks, who took the case under consideration and will announce his decision today.
 The case was called in the Chancery Court room at noon yesterday with the room filled with spectators composed mostly of baseball enthusiasts and play srs of the Montgomery bali team.
 The argument was made on a motion of the defendants to dismiss the bill fer want of equity. There was only one new development. An attorney for the defence iS his argument said that the petitioner had prevented an early settle ment of the case by resorting to legal technicalities. which were almost unfair He applied for writ of injunction in the Chancery Court while the City Court of Montgomery was in session and the Judge of that court in the city ready to Immediately go into the case. He de- rlared that the Chancellor was within easy reach of the city, but the petitioner had the temporary injunction signed by q new judge. without giving the defendants a chance to prove before the granting of the preliminary injunction that there was no equity in the bill
 The case grew out of a petition filed by ". T. Robertson. alleging that the trans fer of the stock and properties of the Montgomery Baseball Association to W. H. Ragland was void. as he stockholdcr was not informed of the transaction until after 1t had been completed.
 The litigation Is supposed to have been primarily caused by the transfer of the ball team from Athletic Park on the line of the Montgomery Traction Company to Oak Park on the line of the Montgomery Street Railway. It will be remembered that the Southern League franchise fe Montgomery was originally granted ", IT. Ragiand, who in turn organised q stock company known as the Montgomery Baseball Association to which the fran chise was awarded.

the Montgomery Traction Company, of which MT. Robertson Is a director to play ball at Athletic Park. When Mir. Rag land severed his connection with the Montgomery Traction Company he ac- cepted position as yice-president of the Montgomery Street Railway. Shortly after So doing, a meeting of the Baseball Association was held at which the Base ball Association was dissolved and turned the franchise over to Mr. Ragiand in con- sideratien of a large sum of money.
 The announcement was then made that ball would be played at Oak Park on the line of the Montgomery Street Railway.
 After the filing of the bill by MT, Robertson, an answer in the form of a demurrer was filed by the defendants which alleged that the petitioner was entering into an affair in which he had no business and prayed for dissolution of the injunction.
 The outcome of the ease is awaited with much interest. It was the universal subject of conversation among baseball enthusiasts yesterday and their sole anxiety seemed to be that the case would not be decided one way or the other be- fore the opening of the baseball season.
