PITCHER BOYD ID
 BE WITH BARONS Turned Over by Cincinnati and Is Said to Be a
 Good Man

The Birmingham baseball club has obtained pitcher named Boyd. He is good pitcher
 Negotiations were opened for Boyd last summer, but Cincinnati landed him. Ottumwa, however. which club owned the pitcher, agreed to turn him over to Birmingham in case Cincinnati de- clined to keep him permanently,
 Cincinnati used him for about six weeks, and he won several games for the Reds-a task, as is known, of great difficulty. Following the passage of Clark Griffith and the incoming Hank Io'Day as manager of cincinnati 1t was determined that Boyd was too light for the majors. Therefore Birminghan got him. fkl
 Boyd is a right handler and is rather small. He will. however, make Bir- mingham a rattling good performer. At the present time the indications are that Birmingham will have four first ra te fingers, four, at any rate. These will be Foxen, Kent, Trough and Boyd.

BALE OF COTTON
BURNED LAST night

A bale of cotton belonging to Frau
enthal & Schwarz was burned at their
cotton yard in the southern part of
the city last night. The bale was
bought some time in the afternoon
and unloaded in the cotton yard. Soon
afterwards it was discovered to be on
fire. The bale was rolled out of the
yard and the fire thought to be put
out. 1t commenced to burn again,
however, sometime during the night,
and this morning it was about con-
sumed. 1t is supposed that the bale
must have caught fire when being
packed at the gin. 1t was covered by
insurance.
