TWO NASHVILLE
 PLAYERS ARE ILL Stevens Has Mumps, While McCabe Is Down With
 Malarial Fever

Nashville, April 29.-tspecial.) )-The two Nashville players, Roy Stevens. pitcher, and Pinch McCabe, official pinch swatter and utility man of the Vols, have re- turned to Nashville on account of illness. Stevens was attacked 'oy the humps dur ing the late series witn the Turtles, and at present his face resembles the well known dentrifce ad, being swelled like bloated dried peach. Stevens started against the Loohouts here last week, but was so wild that he hae to be yanked, and since he developed a mans sized case of the humps few days later, 1t can be easily understood why he failed to show any of his customary stuff.
 McCabe has been seriously i'll since he returned to Nashville and at present is in his room at the Duncan under the care of two physicians. He is suffering from malignant attack Of malarial fe- yer and according to the doctors he will be out for several weeks at the very earliest. Since McNellis joined the Vols 1t is probable that he will act in Me- Cabe's former role of pinch-binger.

enterprise for this company Another year of training and he will he just about ripe.
 New Orleans fans are complaining over the umpires allowing the games to drag along for several hours with out attempting to speed them up. Down in the Crescent City Umpires OToole and Fiheld are holding the Indicator, and they are evidently asleep on the job there, as they wefe in Birmingham. Local fans have also been complaining over the dilatory work of the umps and the tiresome af fairs that have been staged here this spring. One game took hours and % minutes to play, while another lasted hours and b5 minutes. This grated on the nerves of the fans and many left along about the seventh in- ming. The failure Of the umpires to inject ginger into the play is mainly responsible for existing conditions, but the players themselves are not without blame for their lazy playing. has caused the game 10 lag along un- til all of the fans become thorough ly disgusted
 The Gulls arc not the only persons who have the drop on an opposing team. Earl Ningling. the young left handler secured by the Reds from Brooklyn in the Tinker deal, has been an enigma to the Cardinals for the past two years, and nearly each time that he has faced Miller Huggins players on the mound they have heen easy victims. This year he continues to have the Cardinal goat eating meekly from his salary wing.
 
 'On to Montgomery" is the cry of the Barons. and beginning today tho team headed by Carleton Molesworth will make an effort to recoup some of it's lost fortunes against the Billi- kens. In Birmingham recently three games were taken from Bobby Gilks and the Barons are In hopes of dunll- eating this again.
 Johnson pitched a good game yes- terday and deserved to win, but the failure of his teammates to bat when hits meant runs prevented him from scoring victory.
 In 1S isnings the long boy yielded only seven hits, and instead of weak ening as the battle progressed he grew stronger.
 Covington proved 10 be the batting star for the locals hagging three hits.
 The sale of Outfieider Stewart to the Barons revealed the fact that the To-day clause, which caused SD much trouble in the Evers ease. has been stricken from tho contracts of several Cub players.
 Providence has relinquished it's claim on Harry Holland. the Cracker third sacSer, and Bill Smith is now signing with relief. But that sigh likely cost gcoo wad of currency for the Provi- dence club did not drop It's claim with out some financial inducement.

INSPIRED with confidence through
 air-tight support accorded him n by teammates, Harry CoyalesNi. the giant Pole" who is endeavoring to anchor himself in select society on his third trial in the majors with the Detroit Tigers, has gotten away 10 q flying start, and the change in seen cry from the National to the American league seems beneficial To him. The Pole has made two appearances on the firing line for Hughie Jennings this spring. and the form shown on each gives rise to the prediction that co- valeski Is now in the majors to stay. Oscar Stanage, the Tiger backstop, knows just how to hold Govey in check. and the big southpaw is read fly responding to his coaching The Tigers are backing him in a splendid manner, the same as they did Mullen and Donovan. two Detroit pitchers of the past, and this has aided him to gain confidence In himself. Coyalesh is d finished product. and there is no doubt about him filling major league
  and the one that has proved fatal to him on each of his two preceding stays in fast company Is yellow streak. While everything is going smoothly CovalesN Is almost invinei- ble, but let his support blow up or things go wrong. and the big Pole falters and is easy. picking for the opposition.
 As yet his streak has not been un- covered by American leaguers and may not be if Covey can retain conh- dence and sticking ability. But if ever the American players get next to him and he fails to weather the gale. then the former Southern leaguer will stand just as much show in Ban Johnson's circuit as a Shakespearean masterpiece has in a Broadway mus ical house,
 Bobby Gilks is of the opinion that his Blllikens are the real speed boys of the league on the bases and in the field. While the Montgomery lead CT is thoroughly capable of sizing up players, having been scout for a number of years, he appears to be little partial. The Billikens may be the fastest team in the league. but they have yet to show 1t. In @ series with Birmingham their fielding was nothing out of the ordinary. while In four games only five bases were pill fered off Baron catchers.
 
 Holt Mcdowell, the Ensley boy cov- ering right field for the Billikens, is in danger of receiving the pink slip from Giks. according to reports. AL though McDowell is a promising play CT, he has not yet shown quite enough

New Gang Will Attempt Raise the Game of Nre Which It Has Sunken-'Terrble Turk and Finnish

According to well authenticated reports the wrestlers are coming back to Bir- mingham. This time they will enter the arena without the backing of the Bir- mingham Athletic club. The first bout will be pulled off at the Jefferson theatre. This bout, according to the promoters. will be strictly on the square"
 These promoters, according to their own statements, are going to try to raise the game out of the mire into which it sunk under the auspices of the Birming- ham Athletic club"
 They are going to have a hard time not that the B. A. c. aided materially in sinking the game into the mire, but that the game is deeply launched in the mire already that it is not likely that these reformation promoters are going to be able to pull off their raising act

 Surely the Birmingham public is too sophisticated and too metropolitan to fos- ter any sport at the expense of their in- telligence. It is to be hoped they will nip the asperations of these alleged wrest- lers in the bud.
