From the Angle Of the Bug
by HUGH W. ROBERTS

. RYING over split milk has never
served a worthy purpose.
. Therefore, we will restrain our
tears for the time being. and with con-
siderable hope. watch the outcome OF
the next few games.
We are prone to the belief that the
Barons will show improvement on
tho road. THEY will strike New Or
leans this afternoon. and II the feh-
cans are as weak as scores nave III
dicated. the locals should achieVe
victory. In Mobile, they Will nave d
hard time, it is probable, but by con-
sistent work-especially if the new
strength has Joined them by that time
they. should win couple OF the lour
games. In Memphis they should nave
little difficulty, and Montgomery
should come easy.
When we lose, we looked awtui.
There's no way of disputing tnat TACT.
We have been losing and looking all
to the merry yellow" But another
day is coming, for which we are
thankful.
Tt is yet very early In the season.
Therefore, we have another reason Tor
being grateful to an all wise proVi-
dence. There Is still long row need
ing hoeing We have just begun the
fight as Paul Jones once remarked,
and when we conclude 1t is our pre-
diction that our Southern league op-
ponents will look as ragged and as
helpless as the gallant little craft
which stung for time Bonhomme
Richard.
We are about to plug couple OF
weak spots-not weak, but not strong
enough. Mcdonald, an experienced
man who last year hit .267 with Bos-
ton in the National league, will be a
tower of strength in the Baron in
field. He should prove as valuable,
If not more valuable than Almeida.
