 Cranston is the keeper of the keystone, Fox is one of the mainstays of the out field and Garrity is the pitcher who let New Orleans down Thursday with one scratch hit.
 And this is not all A member of the Western association, Des Moines, is mak- ing an effort to obtain Pitcher Chappelle, contending that it's claim to the big twirl- CT ante-dates that of the Memphii.

 From the beginning in several of the leagues, this season might prove to be one for the ''underdogs." Mobile and Montgomery are leading the Southern.

 The defeat of Weems yesterday prob ably means that Ryan will ask for wal yers on the lad of Union Springs.
 According to local understanding Ryan was undecided between Weems and Mer- ryman, and the result of yesterday s game may mean his decision in favor of the southpaw.
 And still Weems is an excellent young twirer and will some day make present stars hump to keep their jobs.
 Montgomery has. recently purchased an other twirler-Biss-wh comes touted as a world -beater.
 The New Orleans fans are knocking the Pelicans from one of Louisiana $ bayous to the other.
 While we never loved the "Dutchman,' ? it must be admitted that he has a good team since Bartley and Fritz have seen fit to report.
 Franks men are older than the usual run of Southern leaguers and it will require several weeks for them to reach their proper stride. But the Pelicans will be heard from in spite of their present showing. and the fans might as well paste that fact in their caps.
 But the present knocking is music in our ears.
 All of which reminds that Bugs Ray mond got away with victory yesterday, and that Simon Bolivar Nichols broke up the New York Athletic battle in the twelfth with screaming double. Ex- Southerners are still on decls evidently.
