One of the best games ever played in
Savannah was played yesterday between
savannah and Charleston, resulting in a
score of 4 to 2 in favor of Savannah. No
one could ask for better field work than
the two clubs did, or better battery work
than was done by Ramsey and Jantzen
for Savannah, or Klopp and Zahner for
Charleston.

GOT his base on balls. Larocque followed
at the bat and Charleston's little pitcher
nut him nice one right over the plate.
Iarocque tapped it over left field and
scored Welch and himself

THE GRAND STAND HAPPY.
The opera chair people clapped their
hands, while the rest of the grand stand
and the bleachers went crazy for about
five minutes Ramsey then went to the
bat, and came near putting another over
the fence, but the center field was too
deep, and Polhemus took it in. Clarke
took the stick, and hit liner for two
bases Hutchinson nit slow to the
pitcher. and went out al first. This inning
took the wind out Of Beard. He changed
pitchers and Catchers, and it was then
four innings before IA run was made
on either side. The prettiest kind of
playing was done when the last half of
the seventh inning started. Behne
opened the inning with a slow hit to
Ramsey, who misjudged, and let the
ball slip. At any rate, it struck
the ground just at Welchs feet
Wech was unable, however, to stop it.
Behne took advantage of this and got to
second. Hill made safe bunt which
carried him to first and Behne to third.
M'FARLAND ssITs DOWN.
Mcfarland then took the bat and after
making three Intellectual efforts to touch
the ball. to the unbOunde1 and expressed
delight of the audience, returned to the
visitors bench. Klopp followed with a
two-bagger, scoring Behne and Hill The
next man hit sky scraper to Clarke,
who caught it, and by magnificent
throw, stopped Klopp from scoring. This
was the second throw of this kind Clarke
had made in the game. Beard went to
the bat. In vain did his team tell him,
Now is your time, oily" ''Hit him
for three, Beard" etc. 1t was
no good Ramsey had no idea of letting
oily do any such thing, and he ended
by hitting to Hutchinson, who put it
down TO Welch in easy time to catch OILY
about half way between home and first.
This retired the side, and ended the
score for both sides, and left Savannah
two ahead of the game. No one who wit
messed to-day's game can doubt the abil-
lty OF Savannah's team. The score was
as follows:
