There is no reason why the fans at
home should feel too much discouraged.
1t is early yet, and if the association is
successful in landing players to fill up
the gaps that are yawning the bad be-
ginning can be patched up so that you
wouldn't recognize 1t.
Manager Wordsworth is after another
inffelder and a pitcher or two
Let us hope that he gets them all.
That was interesting move Billy
Smith discards Maxwell. Charlie Frank
picks him up. Smith sends his star, At
kins to the slab. Frank sends the dis
card, Maxwell.
Prior to the game Atkins had met no
defeat and Maxwell no victory.
Well, Maxwell wins.
New Orleans took three of four games
from Atlanta and the Cracker fans are
exceedingly sore, no doubt New Orleans
fans are not knocking Frank as hard
they knocked last week.
Montgomery won four straights from
Mobile. President Chambers will now no
doubt issue another proclamation to the
effect that he has the pennant cinched.
Poor old Mobile! just the other day. it
appears, the Item declared that the Gulls
had reached the top to stay there.
At this time I can see no material
difference in the comparative strengths
of Birmingham, Memphis, Montgomery.
Atlanta and Mobile. Nashville is play
ing eXcellently. Little Rock, on present
form, looks ADLER than the rest.

DEMUND SURPRISE
AT BELMONT PARK

New York, May ESPECIAL -Demund,
the $500 counterfeit belonging to
Paul j. Rainey, redeemed himself for
some of his many disappointments at Bel
mont park this afternoon when he can
tered home to a mastery victory in the
Toboggan handicap, a six furlong dash
down the straightway course. That the
showing of Demund was a surprise can
be easily understood when he opened at

back him. The warm weather made the
old horse run at his best He got away
from the barrier flying and only hit the
high places in the run to the wire The
further he went the greater the lead, and
when he passed the judges stand he was
four lengths to the good with his rider,
Butwell, holding him under double wraps.
Field Mouse, the post favorite, captured
the place. Harrigan, which was played
from to l to 4 to l, brought up the
rear of the money division
The good weather brought out a good
sized crowd. The bookies conducted bus
mess as on the opening day. They lived
up to the strictest Interpretation of the

ability to hit at critical times, the same
trouble that has afflicted the Barons all
through the present series, caused them
to drop the fourth straight game to
the Travellers, who thereby moved into
a tie with Nashville for first place. The
u men left on bases tells the tale of
Birmingham defeat
In each of the last five innings two
were left Connolly. however, must be
given credit for pitching a better game
than Schopp. The little fellow was eX-
tremely effective in the pinches and
the two hits which started Birming-
hams rally in the ninth would have
been outs on a dry field, both Perry
and Flood slipping in the mud as they
started after ground balls. The in
field was a veritable quagmire, which
made fast play possible. Birmingham
threatened to score in every inning aft
er the first two, but just when a hit
would have meant one or two runs, the
batters fell down.
With the score 4 to 0 against them,
tie DdroHs Hudlly got started IN the
ninth. Larsen was credited with a sin
gle when Perry slipped in trying to
play a grounder that belonged to
Boucher Schopp got scorers single
when Flood fioundered around in the
mud trying to get his grounder. Moles-
worth hit to Flood, who slipped and
then fumbled, Larsen scoring. Henline
fouled to Casey and McGilvray to Per-
ry, but Gygli brought in Schopp with
single to center Wordsworth scored
and Gygli took third when ELAN hit a
low fytto right center that Sentz tried
TO scoop with one hand and lost. It
looked bad for the local pennant
chasers, but Raub lifted an easy fly to
Sentz and the game was over.
The Travellers started the scoring in
the fifth. With one out, Casey singled.
Connolly hunted and had it beaten. but
Raub's throw wasawide and Casey took
third and Connolly second. Boucher
scored the runners with a single to
left
Cocash's single and Perry's double
scored the next run in the seventh.
In the eighth Collins walked. stole
second and went to third when Raub's
wide throw bounded to center field
Flood scored him with a fly to McGn-
Vray.

Tailender Meets Tailender To-day
Bill DYabs WOYaI from
Ba1On S Very Sad Defeaf
BY BILL AK.

Little Rock. May 15.-(Special Core
spondence.)-The greatest satisfaction the
Barons find tonight is that they will not
have to face the guns of Mique Finn
tomorrow.
We are glad it is over. We were in
such condition of heart and mind that
our defeat was foreordained. We could
not win were 1t necessary to play dozen
more games here.
We have dropped four straights. But
all is not lost. Atlanta was beaten in
three of four games, and Mobile on
home grounds lost four straights, and
lost them, too, to Montgomery.
The team drops Off at Memphis and
plays there tomorrow afternoon.
Dickson will twirl for the Barons and
everyone is imbued with an idea that
victory, holding off SO long, is about to
come our way again.
But it is not altogether certain that we
will win. Charlie Shields will work for
Babb's bunch of badly demoralized tail
enders, and Charlie was always a diff
cult nut for Birmingham to crack.
After the game the Barons return to
Birmingham and play a three-game series
with Memphis, Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday afternoons.
After this series they go to Mobile and
New Orleans.

WITH THE sCRIBES.

Tom Downey had not been behind the
bat for six years until today, and he
never caught a professional game in his
life All the experience he ever had
was when he was a kid on the lots in his
home town of Bridgeport. Conn. Since
becoming a professional he has always
played in the infield, so his volunteering
to go behind the bat was a heroic act.
He said that the first splitter that Camp
bell served up looked mighty funny, but
he had no trouble in holding the ball. He
had no chance to show what he could do
on a throw to second. Downey is playing
very fast game at shortstop and threat
ems to be a fixture in that position.-Cin-

W0lesh0rth Refuses To
Waibe On Bill Barley
BY BILL AK.

Little Rock, May 5.-(Special.)-A men,
Der of the official family at home notified
Manager Molesworth this afternoon by
wire that New Orleans had asked for
waivers on Willie BARLEY and Memphis
on Jack Emerson.
Wordsworth was authorized to take any
step which he saw fit toward the acquisi-
ton of these men.
In other words, it was plain that the au
thorities at home are anxious to keep
Wordsworth posted and at the same time
want him to be the judge of the new
material which he acquires. There is a
reason for this. Wordsworth is expected
to bring results.

ager George Reed gave out the following
list of players who leave the club to
bring 1t within the Is rule player limit,

Ed Greminger, manager of Montgomery,
who finished a series here, today, has no
releases to make today to get within the
limit, as he Is already within it,

Now. Wordsworth will refuse to waive
on BARLEY. He does not know whether
he was the first to claim the pitcher or
not
Were 1 in Molesworth's shoes, I would
claim BARLEY for certainty, and Emer-
son, too.
BARLEY has got off badly this season.
but he's good twirler. The same is true
concerning Emerson. He did not win
for Babb, but no other pitcher has done
so, either. There is Just this objection
about Emerson-he wants to go north
again.
And Birmingham is full to the neck of
the player who couldn't stay away from
his northern fireside.
