Last year in Little Rock. 1t will be renem- bered that there was some troubie pc. ths Iaes s slus fns oysr Schedule that the local mogul had framed up. Now If Mike fs selected to get up. scned- ule for the Sally league this season. just put 1t down that the route that the Sally teams will have to travel druinE the coming season will be at least lots more satisfactory than the dates that we're handed them by the Boyer concern. This from Macon: "The baseball schedule for the South Atlantic League for the coming sea- son as prepared by ex-President Chas. W. Boyer fs anything but pleasing to the circuit at heart. Macon IS treat ed we'll enough In the new schedule, but both Columbia and Columbus are not. If tn. schedule Is to hold gooo race would come pretty near bank rupting both clubs. =
 This is because Columbia has been given two home stays of twenty n Gr. .one n1,s another lemon of the same color and size. One of the two teams Is also sent upon the road for twenty-flve con- teCuLlV6 games. II the 6Outu AtAAhets League had eight clubs before twen- ty-ive game trip might not be so bad. but as a starter 1t would prove very injurious.
 vile. has been asked by several direc- tors of the league to do something at once to remedy the trouble It has been suggested to him that a new cannot help from bringing up unlim- ited trouble and annoyance after the season of 1909 opens"
 And this from Columbia:
 "The directors of the Columbia ball club met last night and decided to pro- test against thes schedule adopted at the meeting in Savannah Sunday. The schedule was prepared at tba dtree. have been submitted last November so that the clubs could have fmade sug- gestions as to changes.
 As It was. the schedule was snovea alteration as there was so much else to be attended tn .s- 5s fs
 Tn the month Of June there are eigh- teen successiye sames here; ,,,, .s... are only three games here.
 During July the club will be away for an entire month.

 "This iS too much for, one town to put up with.The schedule may anect other clubs similarly, so the Gppeal has been made to President Jones to get Mfuue Finn to devise a schedule which does not spell Bankruptcy fora strugs gling club 1" And this from Charleston:
 sThe Charleston fans are criticising the newly arranged league schedule. It is not likely to give satisfaction ai- | though some people are withholding Jude1hent at the start. They general iy object to the system of grouping games, declaring that in some cases the number of games at home are too many on the stretch while h other cases the series is. broken into too much, according to the criticisms which are being made. The fans say that Charleston got the worst of the deal in handing out. the schedule"

Rube WaddeN to Shine as Traeedian:
 ! Spike Shannon has Him Ended

Spike Shannon has never butted into lthe footlights game SO far. or pro- Ifessionally, but 1t would be hard to find Ia cfeyerer song and dance comedian than this same, swell bnckstop of the lClimbers. The local fans who heard Isome Of his inimatable songs down at lClancy's and the Pickwick fast season Iwill back up this statement. But Montgomery fans will be amused at this from an Eastern Exchange. Just think of Albert Edward as a tragedian. tThe story referred to is: >s Not few of the big league players lof the present day have made good as lactors Whether they are good actors because they are good ball players or tof their ability to fool the public on 'ifhe stage, is hard to say. That some of them owe their theatrical success to the momentum of the name they have nied. but several have come Into the llaurels through genuine ability.

 Of the others. none ehas9received more publicity than "Rube" WadJell, the eccentric twirler, who was prime face tor in landing the first American League championship pennant for Con- nie MacKs Athletics in 1902. Wad- dell's stage career was rather meteoric, and did not last long, The "Rube" played the role of detective in "A Stain of Guilt" one of those lurid melodramas which usually last abont one season. Waddell did not last quite that long. and during the time he was lengaged 1t was a question whether he would be on time to save the heroine 1from the cruel clutches of the double Jdyed Villain. or leaye4it to the stage 1carpenter to effect the thrilling rescue. 1 jWaddeH was almost as reliable as an factor as he was as a pttcfsre and those .Iclose in touch with Connie Mack know tjust, how many anxious gn0menta he lcost the manager of the White Ele- Iphants.

 Saturday is half holiday in Mont Gomery and if tine, Decoration Day games can be arranged to be played on the 29th. of May, instead of the 3ist, 1t would be good bueiness. for the Montgornery club. ss
 or course there are seven other clubs in the league and every one of them ante up just as much money to the guarantee fund as does S'us.,' These clubs of course will have to be given a showing for their white al- ley. and as eight clubs can hardly be placed. for four games there will be an interesting time straightening out the tangle. which with the addition
