Did You EVerT axe
--A--
Turkish Bath?

If you did not, you don't know of its
results; the best of care and attention
is bestowed on you rom the moment
you enter until you depart; you feel
so much better after taking the first
bath that there is nothing better to
eradicate lazy, tired feeling, pains,
headaches, coughs, soreness and gen.
eral debility. 1t will improve you to
such an extent that you will never do
without your Turkish Bath.
D. you know what a Turkish Bath
means to your health? 1t improves
those who are Ill and acts as a pre-
ventive to sickness. Is it not a dis
play of good judgment to take care of
your health while you have your
health? Even the physicians send us
their patients.
These Baths are only 30 cents. Think
of it; only % cents more than Plain
Bath. Hundreds don't take these
Baths because they don't know of their
goodness. Do You know what a Turk.
ish Bath consists of? Ii consists of a
hot room, vapor room. plunge, spray,
needle and shower rubbing and spong.
ing off; then you are placed on a com.
Portable cot or lounge and you may
stay as long as you like. You have

 At second Charlie Carroll is in splendid shape and will probably be played Sat urday, He will no doubt be in better shape than Marcan, who will get here tomorrow. Carroll Is fast man and a sensational fielder. He also showed up well in batting practice against the Baron pitchers.
 Ellam, who was out yesterday. will probably be in good shape, although he has not practiced as yet. If Elam should not be able to get into shape by Satur- day 1t is probable that either Mldkin or Bell will be shifted to short.
 Jimmy Wall is showing up well at third and is able to hold the hard hit erounders with ease. He seems to be one of the fastest men that ther Barons have on the sacks, but his arm l. yet sore a bit. Midkiff Is in fine shape Tn every manner and Rapp is also in good condition.
 The outfielders have done very little as yet but Jimmy Johnston and Mcbrlde seem to be in good shape The youngster Cochran is also getting along nicely.

JIMMY WALL, GLASS BLOWER,
 CARVING NAME ON DIAMOND

James B. Wall is perhaps the most promising third sacker on the Baron team. He is young, has had much exper- fence, has been recommended highly and is an extremely good man from records. However, he has two mighty good young- sters against him-Rapp and Midkiff. He is just 5 feet inches tall and weighs 16o pounds. He throws, bats and fields right handed.
 Wall has shown splendidly. during the practices and everyone that has seen him work is favorably impressed. He is very fast and a sure fielder. He has always played third base. He is also Irish.
 T have just reached my twenty-sixth year, he says. T started ball at very late period, and have been playing as a professional but three years. I was born on cold and dreary day. February 21, at the little town of Lebanon, Ind. My parents were of Irish descent.

MGRAW OFFERED $8OOO FOR
 SER VICES OF DERRILL PRATT

St. Louis. March 13.-John McGraw, manager of the New York Giants, Is negotiating for the purchase of Derrill Pratt, the sensational young batsman who led the Southern association last year. from President Bob Hedges of the Browns.
 McGraw knows the qualities of this phenom, for he has offered Hedges sSc00 for his services.
 Manager Bobby Wallace has signed up Pratt to play for him and has stated as much to his boss that if Pratt is let loose the Browns won't have a chance of getting into the first divi- sion.
 Pratt is good infielder and can play either first or second base without much difficulty. He played with the Montgomery club last season and led the league with a batting average of .316.
 Mike Finn. scout for the Giants, saw Pratt and was highly pleased with his work, but at that time the St. Louis scouts had already look ed Pratt over.
 Pratt led the Southern association in run getting. scoring 96 tallies for Mont gomery. It was this base running per formance that attracted McGraw's at tention.
 It Is believed Hedges is holding Prat tt for bigger money.

Among the many peculiar decisions have rendered during, my baseball career i number one that is decidedly unique. seldom is an umpire called upon to face such a situation as was put up to me. Portsmouth and Mansfield of the ono Etate league were the contesting teams, inc first named city being the scene or the game.
 At the start of the fifth inning Ports smouth led by two runs. Manager Flood bf Mansfield started with a single Ket- Ter on an attempted sacrifice was safe at anrst, Flood moving to second, Breynuer' he next hitter, singled to right held. Flood attempted to score on the hit. Ball and runner arrived at the plate at Inc Name time. Catcher Doran in trying 10 but the ball on Flood, hit him with ms Elbow instead. Flood. thinking he could beat the throw easily, did not slide. ihe force of the collision sent him three or four feet back of the base line. It was evident that Flood had not been touched by Doran, and that he in turn had not touched the plate. Doran asked me What necision I had rendered, and answered IA man was always safe when net Touched by the ball" He then called my intention to the fact that Flood had missed the plate by three or Tour leet. an the meantime ketter had moved 10 n .ird. aiid Breymier to second on the play.

 DISPOSAL OF ROWDY ELLIOTT

the level of Jimmy Archer. Ira Thomas. Stanage, Myers or any of the other arch- angels of major league fame.
 F It is also admitted that Elliott thought more of Elliott than of any other man or woman who Is browsing on this nun dane sphere. It is admitted, too, that he was not a scholar in his use of re- fined English. It Is also admitted thee he was not always in that ideal condi- tion which assures best work and pro. sents fine example for other and espe- cially younger players s e
 ffH
 Therefore, what would you have done had you owned the club and been in position to dispose of the title of ball players?
 There is the one question.
 If Molesworth, knowing as he did that Elliott was an excellent catcher, knew at the same time that he failed last sea- son to give the club his best services every day, and promised to do no better, fired the man. then did Molesworth. as manager, act wisely?
 This is another angle of the argument.
 ss There is but one solution to the problem of manager differing with a star player, The owner must solve that problem by disposing of the manager or permitting him to dispose of the player.
 In the instance under discussion Wood- ward disposed of the star and retained the manager.
 As far as we are concerned. let it ba known that we have shed no tears over the bier of the departed Elliott. But tho way he can receive the pellet and throw 1t to the keystone is a marvl to behold. Sometimes we believe him to be in a class by himself-with no one in the world barred. 1T. w. R,

The garrulous sporting editors of south ern newspapers are discussing two themes:
 Q. Birmingham's premier outheld.
 @. Birmingham's disposal of "Rowdy'' Elliott.
 Our peculiar environment is such that we rigidly adhere to the theory that ad- vertising pays. Therefore. we are pos- sessed of no intention of protesting against the general topic of conversation. Naturally. we would prefer that all ref erences be teeming with complimentary lore. 1s we can't get that variety, how eyer, then we will take any old thing they shove in our direction.
 In contemplating these references in regard to matters in Birmingham. we note:
 u). Concerning the excellence of what Is to be our outfield there is unanlmity of opinion.
 @. Concerning the disposal of Elliott there is vast difference of opinion.
 This is natural. When you figure that Birmingham's outfield will be made up of three of the fastest men in baseball, each of which is an excellent fielder and good swatsman. you can reach but one conclusion. On the other hand. when you consider the Elliott matter. it Is prob able that no two of you will agree.
 
 It Is admitted that Elliott, while with Birmingham, was the best catcher of the league. He had Sid Smith outclassed in every respect. fAngemeer was no more on level with Elliott than Elliott is on
