folbre q Sure Leaguer.

MT. Mallon Folbre played brilliant base ball at Hot Springs last week. In the eleyen-inning tie which he pitched against SuggS. he won quite a deal of fame, not only as a great southpaw pitcher, but as batting pitcher at that. hitting out the sphere for a single. twO-bagger and a three-bag- ger. This and his work generally, not only attracted the favorable attention of the Memphis manager, but of the Little Rock manager as well. and the two managers will probably vie with each other to secure him for next year if he continues to make good in the thorough try-out which he is now undergoing on trip through Ten nesSee with the Memphii.
 After the eleyen-inning tie Folbre begged to be pitted against Suggs for the closing game Sunday, and had his wish gratitied.
 The following special. head lines and all, appeared in the Commercial Appeal Monday, anent the closing game:
 MEMPHII WIN LAST GAME
The Forrest City times., 1907-10-11

Special to the Commercial Appeal:
 Hot Springs, Ark, Sept. 29-Suggs and Folbre brought the Memphii-Hot Springs eight-game series to a conclu- sion this afternoon in an interesting contest which the visitors were fortu- nate to get away with by the final score of seven to five In the game of last Sunday Suggs and Folbre had hooked up i'll an eleyen-inning tie and this incident was responsible for a thronged grandstand, packed almost sufficiently to hide the smiling face of Sir Michael Finn, of the Travellers. who had come over to see FOlbre given real hard workout. The prom lsing left-hander dropped his game. but he lost none of the points of es- teem which have favorably impressed both Babb and Finn
 h the second inning he faced Suggs l for the first time. secured a single, stole second and third, and incident ally allowed bis enthusiasm to prove 1 his undoing In sliding around Rich ards at the third bag he wrenched an
 ankle, which caused him to limp ! throughout the remainder of the con-
 test. Baxter, of Montgomery. playing l for the locals, carried his batting eve l \. from Suggs, contributing to the
 score materially, and was left on base
 each time when anything like assist
 ance from his less experienced team
 mates would have tied the score.
 Stoekdale began umpiring in the
 first of the game, but Manning in iured
 a finger, which one of Folbre's shots
 fiattened out against bat, and was
 forced to retire. Babb then came
 from the center garden to short, and
 Stockdale was sent to the weeds of
 the center field in time to figure in
 five put outs, none of which were ac-
 complished without speedy sprinting
 over bad territory. Three of these
 occurred in the third inning, Stock
 dale retiring the side.
 The fifth inning opened with the
 score six to four in favor of the Babb-
 lers. Baxter was first up and drove out
 a neat double. Carney followed with
 a single, but was caught mapping of
 first by alert George Suggs. Stark
 sent nice bounder to Richards which
 was easily handled, but Richards was
 undecided whether to throw to first or , hold Baxter, the decision only being reached after Baxter had backed to , third and Stark was safe at first.
 Suggs again got in the game by a quick throw to first when Stark i played otf too far. Stark started for second where Suggs threw him out to . James. Baxter was next caught nap. r ping off the third bag, which retired , the side with three assists for Suggs after q double, single and choice hac ] populated them.
 } The Babblers hustled off the field } al the close of the game To supper be | fore catching q 6:30 train for Mem $ phis. Mique Finn left with the boys
 returning to his home in LitCie Rock
 He was impressed with the work q : both Folbre and Stark.

The plumbers strike situation Is still

the strikers agree to return to their

masters have agreed TO lot the matter
go before the arbitration board for Its
decision, the employees refuse to per-
init this, saying that 1t is matter
of principle, and, therefore, cannot
be arhltrated. Several of the masters
have signed the agreement reached by
the board bf arbitration, which, how
ever, does not make any mention a.
to the open or closed shop. Some oil
