Birmingham at New Orleans. Montgomery at Mobile. Nashville at Atlanta.

New Orleans, April 25.-(Special.) .)-The Pelicans are great finishers. They have won the majority of their games this sea- son by these thrilling last inning things which sends the bug home forgetful of all the delirious plays that happened in the early part of the game.
 That's the sort of a finish they pulled off on the Barons in this afternoons game. At o'clock the score stood to 3 in Birmingham's favor and at $40 the score was to in the locals favor and all the fans were homeward bound in fervent conversation about how it was done.
 It was done like this: To start the ninth Manager Frank sent John Weimer cred with a single to right field. Hyder Barr immediately replaced Weimer as base runner. Pope sacrificed Barr on to second. Klawitter hit to Yantz, who tried to throw Barr out at third but failed. Rohe hit to Phelan, who threw to the plate and would have had Barr out but for Pratt dropping the ball. Klawitter scored the winning run on Johnstons single.
 The Barons had held the lead most of the way but they didn't deserve it any more than the Pelicans deserved Barr5 run. They made two runs in the first ,n- ming, the result of errors. With one down Phelan flied to Kirke, who muffed. Phelan then stole second and third. Some base running demons these Barons
 Molesworth walked after Rohe had dropped his foul fly. He stole second and both counted on McBride's single to left The Pels took the lead in the third inning, errors also helping them out con- siderably. With one down Klawitter singled and Rohe went safe on Marcan's juggle. Johnston beat out hot one to the pitcher. filling the bases. Butcher flied to Mcbride, Butcher scoring. While Birmingham players were arguing about Hart's decision on the Butcher play, Johnston and Rohe worked double steal They scored on Callahan's single to right field
 The Barons tied in the fourth. Moles- worth led with single. Mcbride hit to Kiawitter, who threw wild to second try ing to catch Molesworth. After McGil- vray forced Molesworth at third Marcan singled to right and Mcbride scored. Me Gilvray was out trying to make third.
 The Barons took the lead in the eighth. With one down Mcbride walked, stole second, went to third on an infeld out and tallied on Johnston's error on Mar cans ground ball.
 It was fast game and exciting in spots. The Pels slightly outhit the Bar ons The game was played against stiff wind. which probably had something to do with the error making.

The Baron Hoodoo Still Pursues
POINTERS TO RANDOM

recent tours of the south that Dixie fans do not always show a true spirit of sportsmanship-are eager to find fault, almost to the point of being vicious, and slow to give that cheering approval which induces best efforts from players Can 1t be that the baseball public in the south, or rather any considerable portion of it., is less fair and charitable than else- where?
 "The evidence presented is against the Dixie fan. Recently we had stories of troubles in which members of the New York National league team had part that was not creditable. In Atlanta there was general row and some breaking of heads Past records of John McGraw's ball players were called upon as argu- ment that the New Workers were the ones to blame, but past records count for little. Authentic accounts that abuse by spectators In Atlanta was really respon- sible for the trouble in the beginning Catcher Meyers of the New York team, an Indian proud of his blood and a gentle man by training and a nobleman by na- ture was called nigger' by a beach- erite, with all the contemptuous infer ence that such remark. can carry when coming from southern man. This was the reception accorded visiting player in Atlanta. Action toward even home play CTS seems to be little less courteous, ac- cording to correspondents.
 "One of the ideals of the American nation has been the generosity, courtesy and hospitality of the southerner. It seems that it Is 'up.to the Dixie fan, as a representative southerner, to remember his training and seek to preserve that ideal"

choose between leaving the Democ-
ratio party in the senate short ona
vote, in time Of what Senator Ter
relj said was one of great party grav-
lty, or carrying out the reforms he
had planned TO execute as governor.
AS soon as the senate convened this
morning Vice President Sherman laid
before that body the copy Of the let
ter Of resignation sent by Senator
Terrell to Gov. Smith, and the clerk
proceeded to enroll it on the journal
After quorum had been obtained
upon suggestion Of Senator Bacon Of
Georgia, the vice president caused
the letter to be read in full.
In it the writer pointed out to Gov.
Smith in most explicit terms his un-
derstanding Of the constitution and
the law governing such cases from
which he deduced the conclusion that
his term as senator expired when the
legislature elected his successor.
Vive President Sherman followed
this with laying before the senate a
telegram from Mr.. Terrell informing
him of his action and preferring the
additional request that the presiding
officer direct the secretary of the sem
ate to strike Mr.. Terrell's name from
the rolls Immediately.
With the reading Of this message
ssenators looked at each other as If
to say: We'll that does settle it,"
Vice President Sherman said that,
or course, he would not assume, with
out direction from the senate, to tell
the secretary to strike any senator's
name from the roll, but he assumed
that Mr.. Terrelps request would be
acquiesced in by the senate. and he
also assumed that no senator would
offer objections to striking the name
from the rolls. Therefore, in the alb
sence of objections, he would so di-
rect the secretary. Does any senator
obJect?' he asked, looking around the
chamber. Not a man answered and
the secretary's blue pencil did the
rest. The Democratic manager look
ed rather concerned over this sum-
mary action Of Mr.. Terrelps but, rec
oghizing that he was acting within
his rights, and according to his lights,
they mad nothing to say. They are
very anxious about that vote. how
ever, and the wires to Atlanta will
be busy for the next few days.
