BIG LEAGUE STARS ARE TO
 APPEAR SOON AT RICKWOOD

certain the Howard Selma team on March N2S. The Selma squad will no doubt be in fine fettle for the fray, as they are hard battle. Mack Robinson, a former Baron, is on the Selma reserve list. and may be able to pitch against the Barons.
 The Barons will then hustle back home and take on the New York Giants for one battle on March 30 Chief McGraw will bring a bunch of fine ball players here, and this should prove strong attrac- ton. Christy Mathewson, who pitched here last year in an exhibition contest, with Chief Meyers, and 'Lemon" Mar quard. are the main stars on the team, although Bert Maxwell, the old Baron, is with the Giants now.
 Last year the Giants defeated the Barons by the score of 1 to O. Mathewson and Rube Marquard hurled for the New Workers and showed wonderful form. It is probable that McGraw will let Maxwell hurl if he should accompany the veteran squad.
 The Detroit Tigers follow the Giants on April 1 and 9 The famous Ty Cobb, Hughey Jennings and the other Tigers will cavort here, and it is extremely prob able that all the stars will appear. Cobb, of course, will draw a large crowd him. self, and 1t is expected that the largest crowd of the exhibition season will be out
 The exhibition season will end when the Cleveland Yannigans play the Barons on April s. The season begins on April II, with Birmingham and Montgomery at Redwood.

OSTER BROS. TEAM TO
 BOWL AGAINST B. A. c,

The Oster Brothers bowling team will roll against the Birmingham Athletic club bowling team tonight at the Athletic club bowling alleys. In the last contest between the two teams the Oster Brothers team was able to defeat the B. A. C. dead head team by winning two of the three games.
 Tonight, however, it Is very, probable that the opposite will result asjthe B. A. c. bowlers are on their own alleys and are in good shape for the fray. They claim that they lost last time by bowling on strange alleys, and that they will surely defeat their opponents tonight.
 However. the Oster Brothers team is In good shape and they believe that they can turn the trick again. The team is explained by Kennaday. while Winker, Orr, Sake and Ullman completes the iive. Winker made the high score last time when he totaled I'll.
 The Birmingham Athletic club bowling team is composed of the five men who make the highest score for the week on the B. A. C. alleys. It is probable that Osborn, Ricter. Tickling. Hood and Cole man will represent the "deadheads" to- night. The Athletics were much off, color in the last match. The contest will begin at o'clock.

Atlanta was the scene of the hardest decision I have ever been called upon to render Memphis and Atlanta were the contending teams Throughout the season of 1906 these two clubs had put up a bitter struggle for pennant hon. ors. freak of the schedule brought these two teams together in final three game series, that would decide the championship. Atlanta had one game lead, prior to the start of the last series of the season.
 Atlanta took the first game of the series in a closely contested game. It rained on the second day Naturally 1t was believed a double header would be played on the final day. Memphis insisted on the double header, but Bill Smith, who was managing Atlanta. would only play one game. All kinds of threats of protest were made be- cause of the failure to play the double header Suggs of Cincinnati and Tom Hughes, formerly of the New York Americans. but now with Rochester in the Eastern lea que, were the opposing pitchers.
 For seven innings neither club threatened the plate In the eighth Att lanta got runner to second, Jim Fox, with one> man down. The next batter hit the ball to Charley Babb. who was playing short for Memphis. Fox went over to third on the play Babb fum-

I,uminaries of the most brilliant constel- Iation will soon arrive in the smoky city to engage the Barons in exhibition base ball games Stars are Cobb, Mathewson, .'I.emon" Marauard, Hurhr Brown, Frank Smith Muggsy McGraw, Larry Mclean and Hughey Jennings, wfo will soon ca wort about Redwood park and administer drubbings to our recruits. In all, F ex- hlbition games will be played by the hefty Barons
 The first team to breaksthe dullness or the training period will be the Chicago Cubs, with Frank Chance as boss. on March 2l they will play theS Birmingham recruits and again on the 22d. Chance will bring all his stars including Archer, who formerly played with Atlanta, and Mcln- tyre, formerly with Memphis.
 King Cole, Three Fingered Brown and other hurlers will accompany the squad, while Johnny Evers will play second while Joe Tinker will be on the short field
 Bill Foxen believes that he will be in good, shape for the fight. and states that hs would like to drub his former love--the Cubs-and get sweet revenge. Foxen was once a regular member of the Cub hurl- ing staff, and believes that he can beat them If he is in shape, Moley may let him go in the pot.
 The New York Yankees, with the new manager. Wolverton, will appear in the Magic City on March 2S. Hal Chase, for mer manager and star first sacker will be along with Gabby Street, the Huntsville boy, who was recently secured from Washington In a trade for Knight. Chase says that he will have better season this year, as he will not carry the man aeer's responsibilities. The Yankees will no doubt prove to be good attraction in this city.
 Then the Cincnnati,Nationals,u under the care of Harry o'Day, the umpire chief tain, will visit this burg on March 2o-26. Bill Trough will be along with the boys, and 1t is probable that he will stay in Bir- mingham for the rest of the season unless he shows rare form. Arthur Phelan, the star Baron third sacker, will also be here, while Frank smith, the third former Baron. will pay his due respects to his former love.

Babb recovered the ball and made the throw to the plate heading off Fox. He tried to get back to third, but, seeing he was cer- tain out, he stuck out his arm in front of the throw. the ball rolled back of third and he apparently scored. There was a wild demonstration when called him out because of the interference. There is no telling what would have happened to me if the game hadn't ended to after 10 innings of play,

Thinner. who was catching. pushed the batter out of the way, stepped in front of the plate and ap- parently retired the man, touching him out 10 feet in front of the plate Natur- ally he had committed balk and under the rules I scored the run and sent the batter to first on what would have been the fourth ball. Zimmer turned to the stands and put the blame on me, yelling to the fans, What do you think? He called him safe" I managed to escape with my life.

TOM KANE, THE NEW BARON,
 TELLS US ABOUT HIMSELF
BY REUBEN A. LEWIS
aai

Thomas A. Kane is another new addi- ton to the Barons. He is a hurler and is an extremely hefty man, being just feet l inch in height and weighing exactly 1SG pounds. When a meek and humble base ball scribe approached him and asked his name he replied, Well, my name is Thomas A. Kane, the boys call me Tom, while others salute me as Tommie. So you see, I would have some trouble to give you the authentic one.
 II have been voting now for three years and was 24 years old on January F. A- though l appear to be quite a sober and quiet fellow, I can assure you that mar riage did not do 1t. for as yet 1 have not been smitten by Cupid. But these south ern girls down here look good to me, and I must say, and it is fact, that Bir- mingham has lot of good looking wom- en and l haven't been here but two days.
 'Yes, l had to be born, and that momen- tous occurrence took place at Tenafly, N. J., very near Jersey City, in 1888, on cold and icy day. l did not start playing ball until l was about 16 years old, when a little bird whispered that I was de- stined to be a hlnging artist and so accepted that fateful message. l played around the lots bit, and met Bill Foxen, who said that l had the goods and so he decided to smooth off the edges and to round me up.
 Then l pitched for the Tenahy team and had a successful season. 1 played semi-professonal ball for a long time, and then I finally secured a chance to play professional ball with the Barons. While l did not keep the carpenters busy repairing the fence on account of my terrific slugging, l suppose l am a pretty fair batter. It's cinch that the twirlers down here will have to put them over the grandstand 10 keep me from getting at the pill, for I have quite a reach.
 Besides being a slave to the profession of baseball, l am somewhat of boxer, although I have never defeated any cham pions. l boxed little with the New York boys and was able to get a few decisions. However, even if I am a boxer. l wish to assure you that I never murdered an umpire or killed my manager l am peaceful at all times, except at the dinner table

 Speaking of seemingly funny fellows the people in Birmingham judged thai Fleharty was almost .nutty.' Well. 1 must say that Fleharty has lot Of sense He is good man. and I look for him te be one of the best in the league this com. ing season. He would have gone well last year but he hurt his wrist.
 "A knocker is certainly a detriment tt every one Last year it seemed very funn, to me, as I had my team in third place and well up in the running, to receiv, knocks. l know a man that received a pass last year to the ball game, and upon every occasion he would sit up in tn, stand and knock the team. He won't re- ceive an annual this year, though.
 With good support ball club will play nicely, and many pennants have been won by boosting team. But. unfortunately, there seems to be a knocker In every town. If a team is doing nicely nothing can upset them so easily as bunch oi knockers. However I hope that the knockers have left town, and I am sure that it would be better off. I believe that I will have a good ball club this year. and hope to give the fans chance to boost a little''

Molesworth grew a bit serious yesterday and discussed many subjects. The first question that he answered was the topic of management. "The man that is most valuable" said Molesworth, 'is the player who has to be managed least. One of the main reasons why we were among the leaders last year was because every man used his own senses. In managing my men I always tell them to use their brains. don't say do this, but give them their in- structions and then tell them to do that if things go along right. The eday of the bonehead player is over.
 Now, suppose I would tell a man to use the squeeze play. The man at the bat would start to play that, but when he started to hit the ball he saw the in- felders right up on him. Then is the time to tell a real ball player. If this man should bat the ball through the nfield n- stead of bunting into their hands, l would say that he was ball player. Every man that had on my team last year used his own brains and we finished up high"
 When asked who was the cleverest and most comic ball player that he had ever had on the team, Molesworth said that Rip Reagan was 'Why, Rip kept us

HUDSON MAY ENTER RACE FOR GOVERNOR Reported Smith Faction En- deavOring to Have Hud-
 son Oppose SlatOn

Atlanta. March 5.-(Special.)-A recent story in the Atlanta Journal. stating that there is an 'insIstent demand from his friends all over Georgia" that Commis- sioner Hudson get into the race for gov eInor, is construed by politicians to mean that the Hoke Smith faction is endeavor- ing to force Hudson into the guberna- torial race,
 The story with a two column cut of the retiring commissioner of agriculture was given the most prominent place In the paper, and it went on to declare over and over again. that Hudson Is being impor- tuned by friends in every section of the state to run for governor.
 This announcement, coupled with the fact that no Hoke Smith candidate has yet made his appearance on the horizon, is naturally construed to mean that the Smith faction is looking to Hudson as possible candidate to put up in opposition to president of the senate, John M. Sa- ton.
 Friends of Hudson declare that he was fully vindicated by the legislative inves- tigation and report; his political enemies hold to it that he was shown to have made use of the power given him under the law to build himself up a political ma chine throughout the state, of which he proposed to make use in furthering his political ambitions.
 Hudson has given no intimation as to whether he will yield to importunities to get into the race for governor. He has already announced his candidacy for Con- gress from the Third congressional dis trict, and says only that his present plan is to make the race for that office.
 If heping f0 1OOl if Hudson ie a one last hope of the Smith faction to se- cure opposition to Slaton. The others have fallen out one by one, and 1t Is not now thought that there is any likelihood of Attorney General T. S. Fielder taking up that cudgel.
