More Than Butterflies
m the Washington Post.

From the Washington Post.
 No sane man doubts that the women of this country will obtain the right to vote In good time. but that day will not be advanced by resort to absurdities.
 In Boston, for example. there is an organization known as the Woman's Homestead association, an officer of which describes bachelors as arrogant and egotistic," and declares that they make money their god and evade their duties to society,"" and this despite the fact that If the truth could be ascertained lit would be found that perhaps 90 per cent of the men who remain unmarried do so out of a sense of duty to dependent mothers, sisters or younger brothers, and not because of selfishness nor for any other reason renecting either upon their character or their opinion of woman. Many a bachelor who goes through life bearing the reputation of being a gay old boy, free from the cares of matri- mony is doing his duty to society by patiently bearing a burden of which the world knows nothing.

WORDSWORTH HAS SECURED AN
 OPTION ON THREE GOOD PLAYERS
Two Pitchers and Splendid Inder Will Soon Come to Bir mngham-If Waivers Are Secured They Will Be Here In Five Days-Bil Trough Will Probably Be
 One of the Twirlers

Should Almeida or the man whom Molesworth has secured hit as well in the Southern as he did in the National league he will prove to be a world of strength to the Barons. With Mo- Gilvray and the new acquisition in the inner garden there will be two hitters who will slug around the 300 mark. Carroll and Ellam will stick on account of their splendid fielding and timely hitting.
 With the-acquisition of the two twirl- CTS. the Baron staff should be as strong as any in the league Bill Foxen seems to have rounded into shape. It always takes him about two weeks after the season starts to get into shape. Yes- terday he allowed but two hits and 1t seems as If he is at last in fair shape When the southpaw once rounds Into condition he is a dangerous pitcher. Bill will win many games this season.
 Ray Boyd has pitched splendid ball for the Barons. He has won two of the four games and came near winning a third contest In one game he all lowed but two hits. while in the other he kept what few he allowed well scattered. He has demonstrated to the satisfaction of all that he will win nearly tWo-thlrds or ms games. lie has stated that he is going to work the harder to go to the "big show" Boyd is still young and ambitious.
 Clarence Smith should do well here. In the games that he has hurled he has demonstrated that he has plenty of nerve and ability. His control will be better after he has cinched his job and when the boys start to hitting more often he will get away with a few contests. Molesworth Is highly satisfied with these three.
 It Is probable that one of the two twirlers that have been secured is Bill Trough, who won consistently for the Barons last season. There is little doubt but that the Barons will have a good staff. twirler that Molesworth was anxious to get was Earl Bagby He would look mighty good in Baron uniform. We are satisfied that Bir- mingham will have five good pitchers

WORDSWORTH GETS TWO PITCHERS AND GOOD INFIELDER

Should Birmingham be able to get the three players upon which she has secured an option the Barons will get two corlxing good pitchers and a crack er-jaek infelder. The infielder under discussion hit over 300 in the National league last season Rick Woodward could not announce whom the new ae- quisitions were, but promised that they would burn up the Southern league Waivers have been asked, but not yer secured.
 Molesworth was ordered to go to the big leagues and to stay there until he sbon1d he able to get two winning nitehers and an infelder who could hit, fold and use his head. Molesworth and President Baugh have wired that they will be back this morning. It is evil dent that they are satisfied or else they would not return so soon.
 However, there is still a chance that Birmingham may not secure the play CTS. Should either of the 15 other clubs in the National and American league refuse to waive on the players upon whom Birmingham has secured options, then Molesworth must hunt elsewhere for his stars. While the price IS nol mentioned or any particulars divulged It is understood that Molesworth paid handsome sum for the trio.
 It is evident where the infielder will be played. Berghammer has shown very little and his bat has been very inactive The new infielder will play second base, should he be able to beat Marcan out. It is thought that Moles- worth has secured an option on AL meida, who hit well above 300 last year with Cincinnati. Henry O'Day, the umpire chieftain, was a bit sore at Almeida, who did not report in time to start spring training. While the owner would neither confirm nor deny that Almeida had been secured IL IS thought that he is the man In ques- tion.

Manager Molesworth declares that Clar- once Smith is as good a pitcher or will make as good a pitcher as Bill Trough.
 As Is generally known. Bill Trough Is a finger of considerable note. and Is reekoned strong enough to pull the Barons out of the hoe-that is. should he be returned
 Therefore, Manager Molesworth pays Clarence smith a distinct compliment.
 Clarence Smith as Is known Is local boy. He is big. strapping fellow. with great strength and a good face. He has been pitching around local :ois for eight or ten years. since, as matter of fact, he shelved his swaddling clothes.
 Last season he was given a trial by Manager Molesworth and 'farmed" to the Anniston team of the. Southeastern league.

Because we have known the youngster all his life we had an impression that he was not strong enough.

And our opinion was scarcely shaken when Smith moved down big leaguers with that reckessness with which he has

Games Today Birmingham at Montgomery. New Orleans at Mobile.

New Orleans, April 2 .--fspecial.)- J. Bunts again won for Birmingham today, this time to o. The Barons took two games out of four while here and both were due 10 bunts. Today Bill Foxen helped along right considerably, however, by holding down inc Pe sluggers. That worthy southpaw was dented for only two safe ties, one of these falling in the first and one in the ninth. He passed four, but was steady in the pinches. Six Pels were retired on strikes.
 The game was won In the second when Jimmy Johnston caught Bunting fat-foot- ed with a oller down third. Yantz dropped a sacrifice bunt down the first base line and Doc Johnston 'beaned" him in trying to field the ball to first Jimmy Johnston took third and Yantz went to second. Doc Johnston and all the I'eli- cans yelled long and loud. the locals claiming that Yantz ran out of base lines in going to first. They claimed that he had done this or else would never have been hit by the ball. Old Bill Hart stood firmly by his decision, however, and when the game was resumed Ellam bunted to first and was out, Jimmy Johnston raft ing home on the play. Carroll singled 10 right, sending Yantz across with the sec end run of the inning and the last of the game.
 Tn the fifth the Barons threatened to score again when the bases were filled with only one down, but McGilvray smashed to Swindell. forcing Marcan at the plate, and Big Bill was doubled at first.
 Charley Frank worked hard for the game and in the eighth retired Swindell, who bowled a good game to allow Clancy to bat for him. Hill pitched Tn the last session.
 But the pinch hitter famed and though Bunting singled in the ninth he never reached second. Foxen was in fine form and had the Peicans at his mercy. His curves and kinks were working to per lection and for this reason the Barons won.
 Only one Pel got to third That was Bunting, who doubled in the first, with one out and took third on Callahan's smash through McGllvray. The attempt ed double steal brought a beautiful re- turn by Marcan and Bunting died at the plate on the throw The Barons will leave tonight for Mont gomery, where they will play the Billi- kens.
