day after day the weather has begun
making threatening gestures early in

has followed the order of the tropics
where the rainy season continues for
weeks without a break.

WORST IN YEARS.
Southern League Baseball Managers
Lose Good Com.

Financially, the 1910 campaign in the
Southern League will be- one of the
worst in many years, barring a mas
sive switch in the few closing weeks
New orleans and Birmingham will
gather in the bulk of the profit. The
best Atlanta can do, unless the Crack
ers are in the hunt the lasn few weeks,
will be to break even. The others are
in for puncture of the W allet through
which a good many skekel.s will tricille
into the deficit column Nashville
Memphis, Chattanooga, Montgomery
and Mobile are sure tips for crimps in
the treasury department of the club.
They have only an outside chance of
breaking anywhere close to even. And

BEST BEHAVED TEAMS.
Sec. Morse Praises Lynn and Brocktor
N. e. League Clubs.

That the members of the Lynn and
Brockton teams are the best behaved
tossers on the New England circuit
was the assertion of Secretary Jacob
C. Morse, who said that he had receiv
ed letters from every city IN the New
England League. which contained
words Of praise for the. conduct of the
players in other cities. Confirming
these statements are the written opin-
ion of the umpires.
There has been less roWdyism on
the New England yards this season
than ever before, and some OF the
teams are beginning to follow the eX-
ample set by the Lynn players. In
three cities of the league the actions
in several games have been disgrace
full, according to reports made 10 me
by the umpres, and ! have inflicted
penalties which have caused the man
agecrs to think twice before pulling off
any more rough stuff. ! do not know
when | viii let Burkett get back IN
the game for Worcester
Mr. Morse said that he had received
letters threatening him with violence
if he did not let up on some of the
managers and players who have re-
sorted to roWdy tactics on the ball
field this season. The letters We're APP
parently written by fans with dis
eased mind and Mr.. Morse has paid
no attention to them. The secretary
refuses to say from what cities the
letters We're mailed.
They won't make any difference
with the course | have laid out and
intend to follow" said the official. IF
manager or player conducts him
self in a manner which causes his re-
moval from the game he can expect no
sympathy from me-"

BASE STEALING
THE CHIEF ASSET
OF THE CRACKERS
BY PERCY H. WHITING

Atlanta, April 21.-(SpeciaL)-The At
lanta team lays claim to the title of the
champion pilferers of the Southern
league
As things stand today the Atlanta team
cannot only out-steal anything in the
Southern league, but anything that ever
was in the Southern league.
The Atlanta team has never been slow
on bases-or not in several years at any
rate. But this season finds it lightning
fast.
An indication OF what could be expected
was given in the first game of the season
when Atlanta defeated Chattanooga by
base stealing. 1t appeared that every
Cracker who got to first was able to slip
down to second. The Crackers showed up
Meek to start with-a pretty good peg
GER as a rule. But he couldn't stop the
Crackers in their mad careers. The mar
veous speed of the Crackers made Meek S
catching efforts look so 'dublike" that
Manager Dobbs took him out of the game
and put Carson in. This man had looked
good against Pittsburg and other big
league teams. And Dobbs expected that
he could hold the Crackers on first. But
Carson did not look any better than Meek
when the showdown came, and when
Dobbs left Atlanta he was talking about
a new catching stan. And all because
the Crackers had stolen bases at will.
If Dobbs had thought 1t over bit he
would have realized that his men were up
against perhaps the best base stealing
team he has ever seen. There is only one
real marvel at stealing on the team, and
that is Seitz. He grabbed OF So last
year with the Norfolk club, leading the
Virginia league.
Where the Atlanta club shines is in it's
men who steal about a score a year. In
addition to Seitz there are two men on
the team who stole over 30 last year, four
that stole more than 20 and two more
who stole over 10. And in this last class
is Hyler Barr, who took down IL bases
in a handful of games with the Atlanta
club
Bayless led the Atlanta team last year
and is a useful base thief. Right behind
Bayless Is Jordan. When it becomes
necessary to get down to second he usual
~ does so. Jordan has the delayed steal
down finer than any other man in the
south. The playful way he strolls off
first, turns around to go back to the bag,
gets the catcher off his balance and then
breaks for second is beautiful to behold.
OF the new men on the team who shine
almost with the brilliancy of little Seitz
are DeHaven and Hohnhorst. Hohnhorst
stole 80 bases with Augusta last year.
and is speedy when in trim.
Another handy base thief of the Jordan
order-foxy If not fast-is Sentell Last
year, with Mobile, he took 26 away from
the opposing catchers. This year he is
just as fast as ever
One man not to be overlooked Ia Row
Moran. He stole "a bases last year, no
great number for a fast man.

some Scoring Here

Team H, composed of north side boys
under Is years yesterday afternoon set
a precedent for phenomenal scoring for
the season. defeating the X. o. K. A. boys
of the First Methodist churh by score
OF 90 to g. Though much smaller than
their opponents, there was hardly an in
ming when the youngsters did not rap the
ball to the outfleld
For Team II the battery was composed
of Albert King. pitcher, and Charles
Jones, catcher The other players were
Elwyn Cobb, first base; Henry Lyman
second base; Maxwell Sides, third base;
Frank Leslie. shortstop with Tom
O'Byrne captain, Albert Zimmerman
and Richard Macon in the outfield. The
team is open to schedule games with boys
of their size, through Ed Shirling of the
Powell school.

Row over a Scorer

Chattanooga April Especial 1.-The
scoring proposition in Chattanooga is
somewhat muddled, and unless some steps
are taken in the matter serious complica-
tons may arise between the sport writers
and the owners of the club.
Last February President Kavanaugh
appointed one of the sport writer's of the
city, bat some weeks before the season
opened he resigned his position and sew
cred his relation with the newspapers of
the city.
1t is an unwritten law, or rather prec-
edent in the league. that the official
scorer shall be newspaper man. Neither
of the papers here will publish the off
cial' score. and unless a change is made
1t is said that an outright disagreement
will occur between the local club owners
and at least one of the local papers.
