Never before has rain interfered so se- riously with baseball. Every league has suffered, and money has been lost on all sides.
 Yesterday Jupiter Pluvius struck an- other fell blow. In the Southern league three games were postponed on account of rain. In the American league rain interfered with two scheduled games. In the American association, not single

 Jupiter, therefore, was victor in eleven contests.
 The gate receipts of the Southern league have fallen off SS 1-3 per cent as conn pared to the receipts of last season up to date. This decrease is due to the promiscuous rain.

Nashville at Memphis.
 Montgomery at New Orleans.
 New Orleans May 1.-(Special. )-But one game was played in the Southern league today, and that one occurred in Pelicanville, the locals winning a clean cut victory over the Montgomery Seepers.
 Reports from Shreveport, where the crippled Barons are the guests of the Pirates, are to the effect that rain fell throughout the day. Manager Vaughn. however, cares very little how much 1t rains just now. Meek. having injured his other catcher, Is injured, also. Oyler and Montgomery are out of condition, and others are complaining. All of these ac- cidents following on the heels of Ra- gan's recent stunt, have disconnected the team considerably. Wilhelm works for the Barons today, it Is reported, while Hickman will probably occupy the slab for Shreveport.
 Fun in Little Rock.
 Rain fell heavily throughout the day in Memphis, and the game scheduled be- tween the Nashville and the Bluff City outfit was necessarily postponed Nash vile and Memphis have split even so far, and over the game tomorrow, 1t is certain that there will be some lively scrappng. Rain, too, caused halt in proceedings in Little Rock. The Atlanta Boasters leaders of the league, are plan nins to retrieve their fortune after the defeat of yesterday. Incidentally, there is quite a lively bunch in the Arkansas capital. Lowery Arnold, vice president of the league. and attorney for the At lanta team is visiting Judge Kavanaugh. and endeavoring to have Billy Smiths registration as playing manager changed to a non-playing. If this Is done, Smith can keep the team of fourteen that he now has. If the change Is not ordered, then one of his present fourteen will have to skidoo. Smith naturally Is interview ing the president and the president IS saying what he thinks No intimation is given as to what the final decision will be.
 But Single Game.
 The game in thls city today between the Montgomery Sleepers and the Peli- cans was a very exciting affair Mont gonery headed by Manager John Malarky, started quite bravely to win, and suc- ceeded in the sixth in scoring the first run. In the eighth, however, New Or leans brought Atz and Gatins across the rubber. Just as the locals thought that the day was won, Montgomery tied the score in its half of the final. New Or leans, however, won the game. Sabrie, first up, was safe when Perry muffed his in- field fly, and Atz scored him on single from second.

CHANGES CH|LD's DRESS
BEFORE GIVING HER UP
Mrs. Fogel Vents Her Spite
Against Her Divorced
Husband

Seating herself on the stairway of
the Temple Israel. Mrs. Sarah Fogel,
mother of three-year-old Elsie Moore,
tore the chilFs dress from It's body
yesterday and replaced 1t with another,
before returning the little one, to the
custody of its father, from whom, her
attorneys admitted, she had wrong
Yully taken it. The scene was enacted
at the close of hearing on a petition
for a writ of habeas corpus, at which
Judge Lawlor had ruled that the child
must be given to the custody of it's
father.
John c. Moore and Sarah Moore, the
father and mother of Elsie, were di-
vorced in Sacramento in June, 1905.
The mother was given custody of the
little one at that time, but later the
decree was modified by the Sacramento
court and the father awarded care
of the child. Mrs. Moore recently mar
ried NJ Fogel, musician, and now
lives in California avenue. About q
week ago Moore took Elsie to her
mother for visit, at the end of which
Mrs. Fogel refused to allow her to
return. Moore made futile efforts to
obtain possession OF his daughter with
out resorting to the courts. but finally
was forced to begin habeas corpus
proceedings.
Mrs. Fogel was represented by At
torney P. A Griffin. The latter did not
contest the fathers right to the GUS
tody, admitting the validity of the or
der of the Sacramento court. and the
writ asked by Moore was granted at
once
Mrs. Fogel gave way to her emotions
when the decision of the court was
announced. and smothered her daugh-
ter with kisses as she left the court
room. Then she stopped at the head
of the stairway, and, taking the little
girl in her lap. removed the dress and
replaced II with one that had been
wrapped up In a package.

will have her just as she came to me.
with the same dress and ALL" she
cried to her former husband. And If
1 ever get her back again 1 will kill
her before I will return her to you"
Fogel added to his wife's words by
threatening Moore and abusing him for
taking the child, and declared that he
would aid his wife to the end
The matter has not yet reached an
end for Attorney Griffin left on an
afternoon train for Sacramento, where
an effort will be made to secure a
modification of the divorce decree, CIV
ing the child to Mrs. Fogel.
