AVERAGES OF TEAM
SOME GOOD AND SOME BAD BALL IN
 PAST SEVEN GAMES.
Figures Showing the way in Which Each of MontgOmeFy's Players Has Batted, Fielded and
 Pitched on the Road.

During the seven games played on the road by the Climbers, including Saturdays game in Memphis, Malar- ky''s men have played some remark able ball and some very punk ball.
 That Sunday game in New Orleans would hardly be fair to blame them for. After playing some of the most remarkable ball ever known in the Southern League--two fifteen inning tie games--they had ridden all night in day coaches from Shreveport end rushed right into that game with
 The next three games were decided by one run, Maxwell winning his game by a score of to 1.
 The first game in Memphis was won by Walker, Walsh losing the sec ond game and walker going in again Saturday and pitching a thirteen in- ming game, losing by a score of 1 to 0.
 The team batting average Is down 2 points, .251 as against .253 last week. In the seven games the players have made ffty-seven hits. an average of eight game, and nineteen runs, not three game.
 Ball lead the weeks hitting with ten hits in his seven games. Wye leads the individual batting to date with ten hits in nine games, though he only played in two games last week. Ball has twenty-eight hits in twenty-four in nine games and ties him for sec- ond place. Malarky is next with nine hits in ten games. These four are the only ones batting over 300.
 Seabaugh leads the fielding with two errors in sixty-eight chances. Appe- rious having two errors in seventy three chances. In 1S5 chances Haul sen has only eight errors. Ball four in 123 chances. Baxter five in 1854 chances and Wye five in thirty-nine chances.
 Maxwell leads the box staff with three of his seven games won. A fraction over seven hits a game have been made off him. while he has given three bases on balls and struck out four batters a game.
 Walsh ruined his record by his sur prising lack of control in the last few games he has pitched, but Malarky seems to get better, giving less than three bases on balls a game and strik- ing out over five a game.
 Less than seven hits game have been made off Walker while he has given under two bases on balls and struck out four batters a game.
 The batting, fielding and pitching av- erages for the seven games, inclusive of Saturdays game In Memphis, are: nnA

Demanding Armories.


 Over in the State of Georgia the value of a military company is tested to com munities in which they are proposed to he organized by demanding substantial aid on the part of the citizens.
 Speaking of the matter and the move ment for companies in certain citles ot that state, The Atlanta Constitution says:
 Tt has become a part of the policy of the military department of the state now to require those cities in whicn new military companies are mustered into the service, to furnish armories for the troops, and this requirement. will be insisted on in every possible in- stance.
 "col w. G. obear, Inspector General, did not muster in the Monroe company because the number of men was insuf- ficient to meet the legal requirement. Since that time more than the required number of men has been secured, and yesterday the Adjutant-General re- ceived a dozen telegrams from bankers and business men of Monroe promising that full support would be given the company, and urging that Colonel Obear come back and muster in the men at once.
 Tn addition to the telegrams promi- nent citizens called up the AdJutantA Generals office from Monroe and asked immediate action. They were asked by Col. A. J. Scott. Assistant Adjutant- General, if Monroe would provide an armory for the new company free of cost. They replied that they would call meeting of the City Council at once and decide just what they could do in the matter. The company will not be mustered in until this Is settled. "A similar requirement. was recently made in the case of Winder, where an

BIG CROWDS AT THE PARKS Extra Street Cars Are Thronged. DEMAND FOR COOLING DRINKS Great Number of People Seek Fresh
 Air of Resorts. Most of Them Go to Electric Park, but Many Head Toward Pickett
 Springs for the Af- tern0On.

After so many rainy Sundays that
 the people of Montgomery had begun to despair of ever seeing the sun
 shine, the usual Sunday gloom was
 broken yesterday and there was gen.
 eral outpouring of the population to
 the parks.
 Extra cars were placed on the lines leading to Pickett Springs and to Electric Park and all these cars were taxed to their utmost capacity. Not before this season has there been such an outpouring of the people to park resorts.
 The greater number of the people
 were headed in the direction of. Elec- tric Park, and although somewhat slow to arrive, this popular place of amusement was thronged before the afternoon was far gone.
 All the various forms of amusements
 were in active operation and all were
 well patronized. The big refreshment
 hall was the most popular place on the grounds and in the evening it was diff
 ficult to secure a seat at a table. Being so much warmer than the preceding Sunday there was a general
 demand for cooling drinks, and with all sorts of queer liquid connections in front of them, great crowd sat and slipped to the accompaniment of sweet music. The orchestra was con- siderably augmented and an interest 1 ing entertainment was enjoyed. On account of the disagreeable
 weather, the parks have suffered. but that they are crowded whenever the | conditions are such as to permit the
 people to get out of the city, is the
 best indication that the park season will this summer be success. Manager Neal of Electric Park IS
 pleased with the prospects and it is
 his belief that this park will enjoy the
 most prosperous season of it's exist
 ence. The various amusements on the
 grounds attracted more attention yes-
 terday than at any time since the park has opened
