Savannah took the conceit out of
Charleston yesterday afternoon before a
large audience at Columbus in an exhibit
ton game. Capt. McGarr put Quarles up
against the Sea Gulls and his curves were

in one inning. Savannah's boys pounded
Cross in style, getting nine runs off him.

ninth, when they piled up five runs. The
score by innings was as follows:
Savanna, JS3S 4 S7S9
Charleston, ........ 0 0 0 %
Savannahs club will arrive home
this morning and this afternoon Manning
and his men will again tackle Carneys
Charleston Sea Gulls and try to take the
postponed game from them. There ought
to be a big crowd at the park to welcome
the boys and encourage them to success.

ball like you have never played before.

and the peoples wish must be gratifed."
