Manager Reynolds Will Arrive To-Night Cheer up fans! - V The fireworks will soon atart. . Jess Reynolds will blow in to-night from RoanoVe, Va., and things will take on a decidedly different color. It has been a long time between, ' but the genuine article seems to be near at hand. The manager sent word yesterday that be was ready and anx ious to coma to Charlotte. He wilt divide time between watching the construction of the new park and tending his hooks. Several likely fel lows are nibbling; and when the "haul" Is made, the. manager will hava a good string;, to pick from. Speaking- of the park the commu tes could not have selected a better spot. " The, location is high, permit tin a; of perfect drainage, and the soil is just what is needed In the con struction of an ideal diamond. Cars pass the (rounds every few minute and there are two spur-tracks for storing" extra cars. The early arrivals will probably be drPled on the old Latta Park diamond until the new one 1 finished. CAROLINA'S MATERIAL; PRACTICING HAS BEGUN Chapel Hill, Feb. If Although the - weather has been y slight ly unfavorable, baseball 'practice is now on in earnest. Every after 4 ifoott'ftt 2.10 the candidates gather at th gymnasium and. after a short ' conference with th coach, repair to . th athletic field for rigorous train ' . ing and practice of two and ' three hours' duration. Few positions are held with certainty, yet the more promising candidates are bs-oomln more easily recognizaoie Behind th bat Hobba, Wadsworth and Cox are showing up best. It is an assured fact that the receiving end . will be well taken care of. The can ',' didates for pitcher are numerous anj - some of them wl'l make the alab - probably the strongest position on - th diamond. Th pitching material consists of Fulenwtder, Stewart, Pear eon.i Andrews, Dula, Oliver, Clarenden, j Harris and Belk. The first bag will - be presided over by some of the fol ; lowuie: Hamilton, . WeUel, McClean and Wardlaw, There are four Can didate for second: Montgomery, Nix on, Roberts and Mlsenhelmer. The -short is contested for by Fountain, ' Dawn port and McAden. The most . conspicuous candidates for the third sack are Captain James,' Tlllett and Phlnlx. It la easily seen from the above that T STRENUOUS WORK FOR MINE'S BALL TEAM Special to Th Observer.

This is the champion team of last year with th following exceptions: . Ramsey wa in centre, Latimer on second and Moore in the box. None of these are back thla year.

CAPTAIN SUITER AND TRINITY'S 1908 TEAM In Suiter Trinity's baseball team Las a'eplendid captaJa and player and with him as leader and Dr. Adkins, a noted pitcher of. the Eastern League, as coach the Methodists ought to turn out an aggregation this season that will wlu many laurels of victory. Suiter has played two years on tt. Trinity team, being now a member of the junior class, and before entering college he was on the team of Trinity Park School, and he knows the game well. He plays eecondbase, which puts him in a fine position to direct his teammates. He is very fast in that position, and is especially good in re ceiving throws from the home plate. He is very cool and steady at alt times and, though this is his first experience in captaining a college team, he will no doubt "make good" all right. , Besides being a good man in the field, Suiter is a tremendous force in the matter of run -getting. He is a hard hitter, his percentag for both years in college being considerably above the .200 mark. Last year he led his fellow-players with .812 and th year before he batted .322, stand Ing third. . Both years h led in base stealing, ibelng very swift and surs in this part of the game. His hits are generally for more than one bad and a goodly number of his steals has been from second to third. Though Trinity lost four players that were unequaled in State baseball last season -"Rummy" Wrenn, "Boogie" puryear, Paul. Webb and Billy" Smith a strong nucleus of old ft- LOCAL BASKETBALL; INTEREST INCREASING The Toung Men's ChristUn Asso elation Is conducting a very success ful season In basketball. Never be fore In its' history has ther been manifested such wide-awake interest In basketball, and the game is becom inr more DoDulur each season it- ii played. Very few outside games have been scheduled owing to th fact that the aeatlng capacity in the gymnasium is limited, thus making it a difficult matter to meet the necessary expense from the nroreeds. The local asso ciation does not altogether approve of having Its team take out-of-town trips, as all of the players are em ployed men. and to have them away from their place of work lor any length of time might prove hasardous and unwise. Basketball is beginning to be rscognUed in this city a one of the best of athletic games, and no one can witness this sort of sport without becoming extremely fasci nated with th skillful and scientific plays that are made. The membership of' the senior league Is made uD oT'thrftnest mate rial in the association, and with but few exceptions the tesms are about equally matched. The teams have been playlna- so rloee together that it is impossible at preeent to make any pre-jicttons as to the flrfal outcome It la remarkable how wonderful has been the development In some of th players as compared with their play- in in tne Deginning of the season. The Intermediate league of the as sociation is composed of three trams. and so far they have had a very good season. Th star team of ths league Is the Semlnoles, captained by Locke wnite. This team has not lost gam this season, and mov of Its victories have oeen by overwhelming scorss. The waisaws and the Pelt cans ar the other teams of th league. The junior league, comprising the Rough Rider. Eagles and White Sox. is one of the best organized leagues In the boys' department. The Eagles are at present in the lead. with the White Sox a clos second. In th boys' league the Buffalo have won thirteen straight game, and ' their contestants, the Panthers and Leopards, have had very little show with them. The enthusiasm In the minor leagues Is just as great as in tns larger leagues. The season In basketball will close about th middle of April with a Danquet to tne player of the various leagues. Th game with Davidson College to-morrow night will be th only big game this season, and the home bnvs are prepared for the great battle. The line-up will be as fol ows' Dav dson. Turner, centre; Phsrr and Barr. forwards; Falrley and MeCllntoek, guards; Donaldson and Cromartl. subs. T. M. C. A.. Huntington, cen tre; Green and Crowell, forwards: Garrett and Clark, guards; Hlnson and Klrby, substitutes.

Two men of former teams are also In the squad, these bring Cmsley Armfleld, who covered the first bag, and "Bob" Gantt. pitcher. These po sitions they will probably occupy again this season, though Armfleld is try ing his skill at the receiving end. n is mis important position that Mercer Want a Game With Make For est.

Ths Imperial German' Automobile Club Is endeavoring to mitigate the limitations placed on foreign tour ists, and it has asked the support of the Emperor in Its efforts to make motor-car travel for foreigners in Germany easy and pleasant. After a quiet crusade lasting over two months to find defects in roads, missing signboards and choked dltchea, th Scran ton Automobile As sociation notified the supervisors of Lackawanna county.

Tho builder who will bo first In ths market with a motor driven farm wagon that will do the work of three or four horses soon will become a millionaire.

Another ground upon which to base an attack Is a discrimina tion in favor of motor-cycles. The newly-formed Automobile Club of Lawrence county. Pa., knows the way to gain good roads. One of It first acta was to entertain the county supervisors at a rattling good dinner and then push the good road movement with vigor. Every supervisor was converted In a jiffy. S .A.

As to the cost: Our membership fee is IS, annual dues 12. There are no as sessments of sny kind.

Mr. Pace, his owner, had the nerve to enter him In the trials, knowing that hs had to go up against the greatest dogs In the land, and what was the result?
