player that "there arir eo flies on these Southern League towna" They have stood by boa ball as no other clean In the eountry ever stood Every obetacle possible has been encountered and toelay the Southern League is an orgaulzar tion well backed and prepared to try Its fate another season New Orleans Birmingham Memphis and Charleston base already re-organizsci their capital and have almost eoinplekid the rater of their Mons Atlanta base bail men have met and virtually decided to again enter the League Their backing is of the very best kind the directors being meu of highest social standing and peseessed of large capital In Mobile an association is being organized led will probably be a go The League now wants two other clubs one in Chattanooga and one in Nashviiie The latter city is especially desired and every luducament will be adored to get it Into the League This will make an eight-cornered League The 'queatiort asked will 'naturally be whether 'web a league will be successful It is conceded that New Orleans can support a team and with good luck Memphis and Charlestou can also The other cities are the most doubtful ones See what Btrmingbam Is doleg That city has
