down the road both slipped and fell,
and as Jones fell the shotgun that he

BIG OPENER MONDAY

Anniston, April -tSpecal.)-At ths meeting of the Anniston Baseball associa- tion at the Alabama hotel Thursday eve ming 1t was decided to make no ehange in the plans for a gala occasion on tho real opening day at Anniston on next Monday, when the Bessemer team will be the offering here. The pennant will be raised on that day and part holiday will be observed, many of the stores clos Ing for the occasion.
 II was feared that the election might interfere wdith the crowd a second prl- mary being scheduled for that day. It was decided, however. that there is mora interest in the game than in the election.
 Another matter given attention by the directors Thursday evening was to cut down the "deadheads. 1t was decided in this connection that henceforth no po- licemen, deputy sherlffs or other officers will be allowed free entrance to the game unless in uniform and that they must be there half an hour before the game starts. The holepeepers and fence re- eliners are also to be taboocd in the f,L- ture.

New Orleans. April 19.HtSpecial.l--B mingham lost to New orleans to today in a red hot pitchers battle, Bonner hay ing the better of Green, though wild base running kept down the Pelican total. However. at that, the winning run came in on a double steal in the sixth. In this inning the locals really should have scored more than one run, but well held to the lone tally.
 With the score tied in the sixth, Barr beat out a aounder to Marcan, and Calla- han walked Spencer combed the pill TO deep right center. but for a time it seemed Jimmy Johnston was going to make the catch and quick backing up by Messenger held Barr at third. With no one on bases the drive would have been an easy double. Still the bags were filled and it seemed two or three runs should follow as none was down. But Hendrix grounded to Ellam and Barr was forced at the plate. Lemon picked Spencer off of second and Callahan held third while Ellam stabbed and jabbed at the sliding Spencer. With two down things were not so rosy, but the double steal went through when Lemon nude the long peg to Ellam. Callahan beating the return without much trouble.
 Birmingham was first to score, grabbing one in the third after two were down. Spencer dropped .Marcan's line drive and on the hit and run play Messenger singled to right. Bunting took the peg at third and tossed the ball wildly to Johnston to catch Messenger between first and second, Marean scoring.
 The Pelicans got that run right back after two were out, also. Johnston sim gled and Bunting doubled to right center, sending him home.
 Tn the sixth it seemed the Barons would score. but Bonner's pitching held them helpless in the pinch. Marcan opened with q rap to center and took second on Mes senger's out. Bunting fumbled Me Bride s grounder. but still had time to get Marcan at tbird. In the mix up he dropped the ball and then the Barons had men on first and third with only one out. That was all. however. for McGilvray flied to Knaupp and Jimmy Johnston famed. Bonner was nicked for only four hits Green twirled a game that will win nine out of ten times, allowing only six hits. He pitched brilliantly and if the Barons should have hit at all behind him he would have won easily.

Ar CT Murray was thrown out stealing. MerlSle hit for the circuit. Schardt was also hit rather hard, but he kept the Giants hits scattered.
 Mathewson was presented with an au- tomobile. gift of fans, before the game, and though he yielded 13 hits, he pitched steady game.
 The great throws by Murray, ono cutting off run at the plate and an- other retiring a man at third, saved Mathewson when it looked as though Brooklyn would start dangerous ra.- lies. McGraw was benched In the fourth and in the following inning was order ed to the clubhouse. Police Commis- sioner Waldo presented Mathewson with the automobile and also threw out the first ball.

Rowdyism is fast passing out of the baseball world, and seldom at the present time is a game won through brow beat Ing an umpire. In the big leagues Me Graw still remains, but whenever he opens his mouth he is fired, "Beefing' has never been tolerated in the Southern league. thanks to Judge Kavanaugh, the newspapers and the fans. The American as association Is only trine worse. The In ternatonal is almost as clean as the Southern.
 The general impression is that while the umpire may make mistakes, those mistakes are of the head and not the heart. It is almost invariably the cas- that the umpire is honest.
 In the little leagues there Is moee beef ing" than in those of higher class. This is due to the fact that the little fellows are made up of players who have slipped from higher company, and naturally feel slight resentment against fate. and of youngsters who have not learned that the people won't put up with rowdyism in any of it's stages
 
 The life of baseball depends on the um- pires. in opr opinion. Were there no umpires. it is certainty that there could be no games. Therefore the man in blue must of necessity be honest and he must be fairly dealt with. The people whose money makes baseball possible demand de- oency on the field They are entitled to decency. and they will have it. The man who is a "rowdy is man who is slip ping fast. You may put that in yoar pipe and smoke it. It Is axiomatic.
 And while we think. of it, "Commodore" orcutt is grinding away. This season he is operating his matinee on the second floor of the building situated at the corner of Norris avenue and Twentieth street. He has large quarters with sufficient light and sufficient air Sixteen windows fur nsh the necessary ventilation. In other words, he is better prepared for serving a first class menue than any other chef in Southern league territory.
