The box stan is not the only thing that will give Ryan a lot of mad nights between now and the 18th of April. for the infseid problem Is about as complex as that of the firing line. The proposition is an obtruse one in this way--instead of trying to find men for both the box and the infieid. he has an embarrassment of riches
 The solitary spot in the fnheld that is in doubt Is short. for with the de- hection of Kensail 1t leaves only Pepe- about whom anything Is known. Has sett and Fully being enigmatical. The conundrum that Ryan will have to solve will be to decide on the men most fit to cover first. second and third bases. Four of the fastest men in the south are slated for these points and as only one man can be worked at each of the three corners Ryan will have to mage solomon look like four flush.
 The hardest part of the job will he third and second bases--Gremin- ger is a great big fellow and it is debatsbIe as toswhether he will be ac- tive enough to work second base. A second baseman has got to be pretty quick and cover as much ground as shortscpr-Perry is pretty big and heavy himself. though he will hard ly carry as much weight as the recruit ITO1l 0IlunCdpOtir.5 GDtil thtCh iinNC at7. ways played third base and sone Of them will have to work second this summer---the indications are that both of them will be among the kfngpins of the infelder's in this years south ern league and 1t is an out-of -date clearing house certificate to gold eagle that neither one of them will be allowed to get away from this years Climbers.
 win Ryan shift Perry to second base this surnmer?This is not only possible but probable. Until the advent of Greminger, Perry was unqueStion- ably the premier third sacker of this league. However. from all indications. Grsminger will be easily the star of the Southern League if he Is put on the third cornerf of the inheld-
 When Connors was tried at third base last spring. Malarky shifted Per ry to the second sack. and while he was not such q glittering success as second baseman, his work proved that with steady work there. he could make about as good a second baseman as any of them He was not worked there long enough, to determine whether he could play the bag or not as he was shifted back to third when Con nors was sold to Savannah. The point of Perry's work at third was his magnifIcant throwing across the diamond and in going back into foul territory. after foul flies.
 It was an extremely rare occurrence when he failed to get one if it was anywhere inside the negro bleachers' fence. He was just the least bit fn- elined to fight ground balls. but the only point in his work that was at all weak was in handling bunts. At second base, he would not be called on to handle bunts and he would have 10 make a much shorter throw to first base. Perry is about as quick as they make them and he should not have the least trouble in making double plays with Kensall. Pepee. or who-

THE MOOSE SIGNED
BAXTER IS COMING FROM FAR AWAY BUTTE.
Perry Think He wiri Be AbIe to Bring KeasniI Into Line--Pund-
 ies For season Are aofS

The scorecard privilege was virtually sold yesterday to Dominick Agonrni asd Joe Abraham who bought 1t last season. Last year they paid s150 cash for the privilege. the sale of the cards to the patrons of the game at the grounds being included in the purchase price andsthe proceeds of course going to them. They made proposition this year to the Baseball Co, to buy the scorecard privileges for SIS and at 2 o'closk on the day of every gare to turn over certain nudber of the score cards to the Baseball Comptny. the lat ter conpany to sell them on the grounds themselves asd packet the proceeds. At this rate the Baseball Company would make s350 even if only 100 scorecards a game were sold for the 70 games The cushion privilege is included in the scorecard and as the Coca Cola Company bought inc refreshment privilege last spring for a term on three years all the privi- ieEes have been closed up with the exception of the sale of the advertis- ing space on the fences.
 Yesterdays inornisg mail brought the signed contract of Moose Baxter and a big list shrdiup cmfwyp hrdin and the big first sacker will be In Montgomery within the next few days. He asked in his letter that his trans ,portation be sent so that he could stop off at his old home is St Paul, but as his transportation had already been sent him he will have to arrange it with the railroad people in Butte about coming round by St. Paul. Letters also came yesterday from Buck Shannon and Charlie Fuller saying that they would .ieaye 70. Omaha at once and expected to day. In the same mail came a letter from Pofry eaytng that he had written to Kenseil and thought he could induce him 70 change his mind and come to Montgomery. If he does, Ryan will come pretty near having bomb-proof ,inf1eld.
 !! Work was started yesterday morning on painting the fences which will be almost white. but of pale yellowish tint. Arrangements were also made for the erection os the new score board which will be entirely different this as in eevrythins else. Is to make it as much on the National League order as possible. The board will be about IS feet high and 15 feet wide. It will be Sesp c.osss Tse naes aas s'1S' of ths eight cluubs Of the League will be printed in large black or white let- ters on. boards which will fit in grooves Instead of writing the different figures in chalk as has been the case, each figure from one up to fifteen, will be of bright-colored aluminium, and hung Inning, striktout. balls, etc. This aluminium arrangement will enable the weakest pair of eyes to distinctly see other thing ;s that the back of the board fronting on the street car sta- tion can be sold to advertisers as well as the front facing the grand stand.
 Ryan says that he is "cutting the corners" and that he intends to cater to the fants of Montgomery and give everybody 100 cents for their dollar.

GUS DUND0N SCORED
 AND BROUGHT IN PAY DAY
Mike Finn Tells Story on One of
 Franks New Men.

Mike Finn Tells Story on One of
 Franks New HeH.
 Funny things some times happen in the best of regulated families" re- marked Mike Finn of Little Rock. when in a reminiscent mood recently. land the addition of Gus Dundon to the Pelicans reminds mo of the funni- est incident ever saw in baseball. for he was the chief actor in the tragedy.
 Tt was away back in the sos. when Dundon blew into Youngstown. was managing the team there and gave him a job. Pay day was not so frequent then as 1t Is In the Southern now, and our team lost game after game. No matter how hard they tried, and can say they really tried, but the games all. went to the other teams.
 Finally pay day rolled around and the players all came in for their money. I met them half way. Gently, but firmly, and in the most melodramatic style that I could conJure up. I in- formed each player there would be no pay day until game was won.
 Every man on the team was dead broke and this started the players to working in dead earnest. never saw ball players work like they did after that time, but luck hung on with the games going against them, in the same old way. We would get within one run of the game and 1t would look as though Youngstown was going to win, but the result would be against us.'
 s'Wifh this monotonous i'll luck. we struck Mansfield one day and the score rocked along until the eighth inning, with the other team ahead, when our boys brought it up to tie.
 "Ip the ninth inning Dundon went to ti1e bat and pulled up on four bad ones. He stole second; he stole third; and then he stole home. That won the game for us, and Dundon turned hand springs all the way to the bench. The other players grabbed Dundon and carried him out of the park on their shoulders. The crowd thought my players were dIppy, but there was a pay day that night, and they had a right to shout"

The Grand--Saturday Night.
 ElbeFt Hubbard.

The Lyceum takes peculiar pleasure fin announcing as its last attraction for this season, that unique character. El- bert Hubbard in his quaint lecture on Health. Wealth and Hippiness." In asmuch as MY. Hubbard claims he has lived in the nelghborhood for fifty years-without committing himself as to which side-without the need of a physician. he may almost be considered an authority on Health. And as The Roycroft Shop with the aid of The Philistine" Magazine. is bringing him in an independent income. his ideas of Wealth should be worthy of consider ation. And we Aln venture the asser- tion that any man with Health and Wealth can give the rest of us point CTS on Happiness.
 Mir. Hubbard is reputed to have the largest vocabulary of any writer since Shakespeare, and his epigrams are quoted every day in current liter ature.
 Of his lecture Monday night in At lanta. The Journal says he was greeted by "one of the biggest audiences the season has brought out, which crowded the house from pit to dome" and from The Constitution we quote tho follow ing:
 "Elbert Hubbard, the Roycroftsr Of East Aurora, N. Y. did things into lecture last night at the Grand that pleased beyond expression an audience of large proportions. His many epi> grammatic sayings brought forth much applause and a great deal of laugh ter, and 1t must be said that the Fra Elbertus talks as Interestingly as he writes, and, of course. talks as he writes. Leture is hardly fit word for his discourse. It was more of talk. probably he meant 1t for one of his heart to heart talks" adv

Cincinnati. March s--The National Baseball Commission gave out a num- Der of decisions today.
 There having been some question as to the transfer of Player Irwin Will helm from Birmingham to Brooklyn, all parties agreeing on the facts, the Commission apportioned the purchase money. $500 to Birmingham, $350 to the player and the balance to the Com mission for violation of the rules re- garding a non-reserve contract
 A fine of $260 is imposed on Brook lyn for covering Player John Doscher, who is declared to belong to the club on whose reserve list he appeared last fall
 The application of Edward !. Hughes for release from his contract with the Boston American League team was refused, the club having acted entirely within its rights.
 Formal notice was given to all ma jor league clubs regarding their act ions in the matter of purchased and drafted players, the threat of a fine for violation of the proisions of the na- tional agreement in this regard being made.
 Since the beginning of February nc fewer than fifteen ball players have joined the matrimonial league
