TWODAYS REMAIN
FOR McBRIDE MEN
Week Has Been Rough One At Hot Springs But
Nationals Captain Says Men Will Report In
Good Shape At Atlanta.

HOT SPRINGS, Ark, March 3.-Cap-
tain Mcbride and his seasoned Nation
ais have but two more days for work
ing here, and the arrival of good
weather brought them out today for
some stiff practice. Mcbride tried hard
to get "Old Fox" Clark Griffith to line
up his Reds against the Nationals yes
terday, but there was nothing doing.
Griffith couldn't see anything like that.
This has been a tough week for US, ;"
says Mcbride, but when we land at
Atlanta next week we'll be in pretty
good shape, good enough to make the
pace for the others"
The Nationals worked out yesterday
morning and afternoon, stopping in the
afternoon just long enough to chat with
the Reds and try to coax them into
game. Every man in the squad is down
to form.
Sunday baseball has been killed here
by the edict of Judge J. B. Wood, prose-
cutting attorney. He has ended gam

day, and it Is believed that If the ball
players attempt to pull off a game SUM-
day they will be arrested.

BALTIMORE. March Fright on top
of the announcement by Manager Joe

n aker Sammy Harris, of the Eureka

ing of Dummy Decker, the local well

Decker was billed to clash with john
ny Dohan, of New York, before Bar
rett's club, but the New Yorker was
unable to come here on account of hlood
poisoning as the result of a bruised
boil.
In the meantime Barrett got busy over
the long distance phone to get a sub

finally got Herman Taylor, of Philadel-
phia, to send on Joe Seiger, of Denver,
who had fought Decker in less than two
weeks ago.

Atlanta weather.

Those who are inclined to cyiticise JIM
my McAleer for his selection of Atlanta
as the Southern camp for the Nationals,
might do well to note the weather that
has been encountered by the baseball
colony at Hot Springs. generally con-
sidered ideal for training purposes.
Goodness and rain have been the rule
and, as a matter of fact, little real
benefit has been derived by the players
except in the course of baths.
1t may be that Atlanta will be unfa-
vorable this spring, but surely little
more so than has been the Arkansas re-
sort since players commenced to report
there couple of weeks ago.

legs of a centipede. the hands of an.

between third and second. and some
times goes into the outfieid or bumps
the pavilion for those crazy fouls. When
a manager has such a man he begins
to dope how he can use him somewhere
else. Why not make a pitcher out of
him? He can put them over. which is

NO DANGER FOR TREES
AFTER LATE Freeze
Orchards May Yet Yield Good
Crop

Sumter county peach orchards
will bear a crop next year, despite
the fact that many trees bloomed out
here recently as the freeze on Mon
day morning will send the sap back
into the ground and hold the trees n
check" said Mr. C. S, Verdery, an ex-
perienced fruit grower, yesterday.
THE trees that bloomed forth re-
Gently" continued Mr.. Verdery "are
as rule, old and discarded trees
that would have borne little fruit
at best. The real bearing peach
trees are still in fine form"
Mr.. Verdery has, for several years,
been superintendent at the Bagley-
Ray orchard here, and is an authori-
ty upon the Georgia peach at any
stage.
Several weeks ago, it will be re-
membered the trees in several or
chards about Americus put forth
blooms in great numbers as the re-
suit of the unusually warm October
weather. There was fear expressed
that the peach crop of next year was
doomed in advance, as the tree would
not bloom twice.
Mr. Verdery, however, is convinced
that the best fruit trees were not
among these late bloomers, and that
no danger attends the next crop from
that source. OF course the buds may
be killed in the late spring next year
but that is a danger to be reckoned
with at that time, and not now.
A great deal of capital is invested
in peach orchards about Americus,
and weather conditions, therefore,
are watched with interest.

LOCAL ORATORS
TO TAKE STUMP
FOR POPE BROWN
TO SPEAK IN near COUNTIES
Prohibition Leaders are Busy
Working Out Plans

Though no official announcement
has yet been made, it is understood
that the Pope Brown Headquarters
here will send out in a very short
time several speakers to address the
voters of nearby counties in behalf of
the prohibition candidate for gov
ernor.
1t is the plan of the local headqual-
ters to get the name of their candi-
date as prominently as possible before
the people of this section before the
day of the primary. In Sumter coun-
ty, it is believed sentiment in behalf
of Pope Brown has become pretty
well crystalized, so that good part
of the work to be done should be ac-
complished in the nearby counties, In
addition to what is to be done here.
Among the speakers whose names
have been suggested in Connection with
those of Messrs. J. E. Sheppard, J. E.
D. Shipp, E. A. Nisbet and w. T. Lane
The counties in which these speakers
will likely be heard are Webster, Lee,
Stewart, Macon and Schley, though
other counties may be included in the
list.
Further plans for this campaign OF
speaking will be worked out and an
nounced later from the Pope Brown
headquarters here, if it is thought de-
sirable to institute such a campaign.
The dates will be arranged so as to
make the speeches most effective.
Several local speakers, who are ad
vocates of Pope Brown, have made
known their willingness to enter into
the campaign in this active manner.
