This Mobile bunch seems hard to beat. Yesterday the Barons were trounced. The score need not be mentioned. In the five games that the Barons have played with the Sea Gulls they have lost four However, the Barons are expected to make up for the losses in the games this afternoon and tomorrow. Boyd will work this afternoon and should annex his game
 A Sea Gull that has been breaking up many games is Baby Doll" Jacobsen. This little bird is but six feet, three inches tall and weighs near 200 pounds. He has been hitting many doubles and few homers. Baby Doll' is a dangerous bat ter with men on bases. Center Fielder Maloney has also been hitting we'll Joe Dunn. the receiver, has been walloping the horsehide at a gay clip. while ''Whitey" Rohe has connected a few times.
 Berger and Demaree appear to be good fingers, too. At the present time the latter is going like a house on fire and it does not look as if any club in the league can stop him. Berger has pitched one or two good games and about the same number of bad ones However, he is said to be pretty fair.
 This afternoon Birmingham will get her first glimpse of the Gulls in action. In the meantime Mique Finn is smiling.
 The wind-up of the college baseball season is fast approaching. At the end of this week the stronger teams will be picked while the weaker ones will be shown up. Alabama plays Tennessee Thursday at University, while Auburn plays the Georgia Technical team Fri day and Saturday in Atlanta. This will practically end the season for both Ala bama teams.
 Today Georgia plays the University of Virginia, while the University of Ten nessee will stack Up against the Central University of Kentucky at Knoxville. A series that is looked upon to be close and exciting is the Vanderbilt Mississippi games at Nashville. Three games will be played and the results will be eagerly watched.
 Sewanee plays Maryville on Wednesday and Thursday, while Mercer and Wake Forest play on Tuesday and Wednesday. Upon this same date the University of Georgia and University of North Carolina will begin a three game series.
 Thursday the University of Georiga will play the North Carolina Agricultural and Mechanical.
 Auburn plays the Georgia Tech squad in Atlanta on Thursday and Friday while Mercer and Tennessee play together on the same date. Auburn has made an ex- cellent showing so far and if the team should show up we'll on the last road trip, it will get good ranking in the baseball world
 After playing first base one day, Harry Davis has decided that he is not fit 10 help the Maps along in the race for the pennant. He says that he is satisfied with the playing of Hohnhorst and that he will play him on the initial bag
 Many looked for Davis to play the initial sack again this season, as it was thought that neither Barr nor Hohnhorst was strong enough to play regularly.

New York, April 2S.-The stock market last week emerged from the depression which had held 1t in the presence of the Titanic disaster and reasserted the hope full sentiment regarding the business pros pect prevalent for some time past. or the actual events of the week the clearing up of labor controversies held promi- nent place in the influence on specula- tion This was seen in the buoyant move ment in the anthracite group due to the shaping of a compromise between the operators and the miners. The sign ing of the soft coal agreement at the same time tranquilized a large field of indus try. in which there was lately the threat of turbulence.
 Speculative confidence was aided, also by the course of the dispute between eastern railroads and their engineers. The influence there was more restrained, due to the still undefined result of med iation of the government officials. The avoidance of an actual strike, however, represented a gain over what was feared. There exists also an underlying impress sion in some investment quarters that the part played by government officials in the detailed negotiations of this wage contro, ersy may further the end desired by railroad managements of an allowance of freight rate increases.

HEMPHILL HAS GATHERED A
 BUNCH OF VETERAN PLAYERS

Atlanta, April Especial )-Tne Southern league has long been haven of refuge and usefulness for big league players who were too old to stand the pace in the major leagues, but who blossomed out in fine style in the south But it has remained for Charley Hemp hill. manager of the Atlanta club, to organize the first all-veteran team that the south has ever known.
 Hemphill is an old-timer himself, though he doesn't show it in fielding. running or batting Especially at bat ting) for Tt last accounts he was lead ing the league But he is 36 years old and has played baseball 16 years, most of the time in the major leagues. He knows couple of thousand oldtime players intimately. has played with them Whenever the choice comes be- tween an old-timer, who is a known quantity, and a youngster, Hemphill has always chosen the old-timer.
 As a result of this system Hemphill now has team that averages more than 30 years of age-that is. the in flelders, outfielders and regular catcher up, anu the pllcHtis are s'ii SNPpi AciiSSe men with one exception, and the ex- ct ption doesn't threaten to stick long,
 Now thirty years doesn't look very old in most professions. But baseball is essentially young mans game Look at the star players of the major leagues. There are a few veterans there who are still good--Lajoie, Wag- ner, Callahan, and the rest But to off, set this there are hundreds of kids boys of 19, 20 and 2t.
 A man who has followed big league .eams for years estimates that the av- craze age of the players now actively engaged in big league baseball to he under 25. The Cracker team has five good years advantage over that in age.

 Many believe that Johnny Siegle will win the Rome game this afternoon. t Is probable that he will put Elmer Ran dall on the hill and many think that Randall will bring home a victory. There is little doubt but that he will have a club in the running real soon. With Randall, Kane, Chaput and DAVIS on the pitching staff, he cannot lose al ways.
