The trip to Columbus evidently had a good effect on Birmingham's ball players. They came home yesterday morning flushed with the victory of the day be- fore, and with Sparks in the box won out from Columbus yesterday with hands down. the score at the end of the seventh
 inning being 15 to and with seven ad- ditional runs in the eighth, with two men out and Sparks on second.
 Mckenzie, the new find, went 10 second, Leighton taking rest, and did some good work, showing up well and giving prom ise of being a strengthener to the team.
 Fuller finally succeeded in making an er-
 TOT, though 1t did not cost anything.
 Rappold's failure to hold Gibsons foul
 liner, r,which in reality was dead easy, cost
 Birmingham two runs. as Hunt was on
 second and scored on a hit which Gibson
 finally got in he also scoring on Miller
 single.
 Sparks pitched the game of his life, striking out nine men and only giving two bases on balls. Then, too, he fielded his position well and got in clean two-
 bagger, which counted.
 Miller, who pitched for the visitors, was very wild, giving seven men bases on DdllS. f1e ueiuou HIS pOSltlOn we'll, uOW- ever, and got three nice assists. In the second inning 1t looked little blue for Birmingham and the fans were on their uppers, fearing that Birming- ha ms two scores would be tied and prcoably doubled. Hall hit to Fuller, who failed to field. Hunt, in trying to bunt, struck out. Daniels and Gibson were given passes to first and the bags were covered and only one man out. Dad" Phelan, who Is one of the pio-
 neers of the diamond and we'll known to
 base ball enthusiasts here, stepped up
 to the rubber, stick in hand, and made
 a swipe at tile first ball delivered as if
 he intended lining out one of his old time home runs The fans knew his
 proclivities for this particular kind of
 work and were fearful lest he should
 recall his youthful days and do some
 thing ugly. But he cou1dn't connect, and
 was struck out in lightning order A sigh of relief fell from the lips of the
 rooters as he went to the bench and Mill Ter came to the bat. He was pie, and Sparks gave him three beautiful plate splitters, but his eye fooled him and he, too, sawed wind and the side retired. It was smooth sailing during the remaining innings, Birmingham adding four runs to her two already scored in the next in ming and another in the fourth. Walsh and Gorton fielded their. posi- tions like veterans and did some timely stick work also.

At MontEomery.

Montgomery April 30.-One of the best played games of the season was won by Mobile this afternoon by a streak of luck, or rank umpring, according to the bias of the spectator. The score stood 2 to 2, and in the last half of the ninth, with the bases full, Wiseman went to the bat and after two strikes hit ball down the left foul line, which struck the fence several feet outside the line, but Clark called 1t fair and it won the game, al- though Mobile would probably have won anyway. Both teams did excellent work, but if there was any difference Mobile put up little the best game. The fea- ture of the game was Buschman's one handed running stop of a hot grounder to second base that looked like a safe hit. Both pitchers did splendid work, and taken altogether, there is no reason to complain on either side. Score:

At Atlanta.

Atlanta, April 30.-The New Orleans team made its official bow to an Atlanta crowd this afternoon. A thousand peo- pie saw the game and it was a slugging match of good size, as well as game re- plete With errors, if the battery errors are considered. The Atlantas won the game in the first inning by piling up six runs, not single one being earned. In the second New Orleans earned a run and in the third Atlanta added another, but 1t was run due wholly to errors. New Orleans crossed the plate in the fourth without any earned flea ture being in the run. When the fifth opened the score was Atlanta's way by to g. but when that inning closed New Orleans had sent seven men across the plate, making the sheet show 9 to ' for the vis- itors. Two of the runs were due to home run drives by Knox and Bowman. In the sixth the Atlantas took the bit in their teeth and found the home plate four times more. one being an over-the- renee punch by Manager Knowles. At Ianta added two more in the seventh and New Orleans as many in the eighth. In the ninth Atlanta picked out four more and that ended the struggle. Of the tWenty-eight runs made nine were earned, and of the earned runs three were homers. In addition to the fielding errors, sixteen battery errors were charged up by the official scorer. Score:

 In answer to the recent communica- ton of Morgan R. Wise, in the Border Vidette, have the following reply to make:
 Mr. Wise had presistently refused from the very beG'nDipg to pay taxes upon his Improvements on government land. He hsd been repeatedly notified that tbe taxas were due ssd must De laid. He Dever made any response to a single notice sent him. When the time came for me to turn over the booKs to the board of supervisors tte taxes still remaining unpaid, l de- putized Judge Vanderlip to make de mond for payment, and it he met with refusal 10 levy upon property suffi- cient to satisfy the demands. The wagons and cows to which Mir. Wise re- iers in bis communication were not ss- sessed to him and consequently could not be legally seized iu pay yrent of his taxes. If this property belonged to him, he had failed to include it in his ss sessment list, which he msds under oath.
 His statement that the land was patented is wholly untrue, as the re- cords show.
