good. But do not spoil him by an agree

The New Orleans papers are ripping

ginning to realize that Frank has got to-

is consolation for them. If Frank tries,
and if he has not lost all interest in the
game, he can get good team as fast as
any other man.
Let us all begin the season with
kindly feeling for each other. This is
the way to land the rag. If the players
play together one for all, and if a gen.

will float for another season over the

After looking through the Pelican camp
yesterday, and finding therein little to
cause fear to Birmingham, suppose the
fans drift down the Louisville and Nash
vile a few miles, and there by the sleepy
Alabama behold the sleepy Pretzels.
This season. however, there is more life
In Montgomery than in many years. All
of the sporting writer's are dreaming
dreams of pennants and boosting Man
ager Malarky. The Pretzels do look
strong this season, although there is no
more hope of Montgomery winning the
pennant than there is that Charlie Frank
will refrain from beefng.
The first thing that impresses the Wis
iting fan is that Bert Maxwell, hailed
last season as the 'phenom' Of Dixie,
has been suspended 1t seems that Bert,
after his trial with Pittsburg, thinks he
is worth $250 and Manager Malarky
thinks his value is nearer $225. Bert re-
fuses to sign. Malarky suspends him.
and Mr.. Screws then tells the readers
of the Advertiser that Bert is of little
value after all.
