SOL SMILED
Long Enough to Give Augustus Heavy
Hitters their Opportunity.

Old Sol smiled on the Augusta lovers of
base ball, took compassion on the Augusta
manageme ,t, and so far controlled the rain
drops as to allow the Augustus to secure an
other one sided contest from the Haverhills
yesterday afternoon. The score stood nine
to nothing and about three hundred witnessed
the game. The playing of the Haverhills
was inferior to their exhibition on Monday,
while the home team played its usual steady
game.
Everybody played well. Sullivan pitched
again. and although he did not pitch for
strike outs. the Haverhills were unable to
discover the ball. The features of the game
we're the pretty stops by Wilson and Ring
of hot liners, Patterson's fine running catch
in right field. and the diamond playing Of
O'Brien, Ring, Wilson and King. which was
loudly applauded. The remaining players
put mp their usual good game hut had few
chances. The visitors were playing in too
fast company and were disgruntled at their
defeat. Below is the score:
