Sundays Ball Game.

The game yesterday between Os-
wego and Vinita was not very in
teresting one, the score being 20 to 10
in favor Of Oswego. A fair crowd
witnessed the game. The winners
put up very fair game, but their
pitcher was batted all over the field.
Having good felders. this was what
Oswego wanted. The Vinita boys
played listless game all through.
Joe Little was batted all over the lot,
the visitors making nine runs in the
third inning. The local boys, who
mostly compose the Vinita team this
season, are good players IN their
class, butthey have no chance against
a strong club.

WONDERFUL SHOT
Eighty Gar Loads of Lime Stone Loos-
 ened at One Blast

LaGarde, June 2.-(Special .)-The La- Garde Lime and Stone company of Annis- ton and New Orleans have made wonderful strides in developing their large quarries here On last Friday a wonderful shot was made with dynamite and Judon powder. Several hundred pounds were used, and fully eighty carloads of line stone were laid over into the quarries with one blast. The work of preparing for this shot began several weeks ago, and it was one of the most successful known to mining experts.
 The company is shipping out from F to 16 carloads of stone and 300 barrels of lime per day. Ten months ago not stone had been turned in what is now one of the larg- est and most modern high-grade lime plants in the south. The company has 11S hands at work in it's different deoartments and has let contracts for the erection of two more furnaces.

COKE STILL IN
 HEAVY DEMAND Premium of Fifty Cents Per Ton
 Offered. NEW BATTERY STARTED UP Woodstock Furnaces at Anniston Would be Put in Operation if Fuel Could be Obtained ,ooo More
 Ovens Needed
NEW BATTERY STARTED UP

There has been a heavy demand for coke in the Birmingham district for several months, and still exceeds the production. So great was the demand last week that some of the furnace companies were of fering an advance on the usual quotation of $5 per ton for this material. It is stated that S5.5O per ton was offered by one of the local furnace companies one day last week. Fully two thousand additional ovens are needed in this district to supply the needs of the iron furnaces. Two years ago coke was selling here at from $2.5O to $3 per ton, compared with $5 per ton at present.
 The battery of coke ovens recently built near the furnace at East Birmingham by the Tutwiler Coal, Coke and Iron company have been started up and will be making coke in a day or two. The Tutwiler com pany has been annoyed considerably the past few months on account of the inability to get a sufficient supply of coke to keep the furnace in blast. The production of the coke ovens at the furnace, added to those in the country, owned and operated by Ma jor Tutwiler will give the furnace all the coke it can use.
 The two Woodstock furnaces at Anniston have been idle for several years and only remain idle now for the lack of coke, it is stated. J. D. Probst of New York, one of the principal owners and an officer of the Woodstock Iron Works, is authority for the statement that the furnaces would be put in operation if a supply of coke could be secured. He made a statement to this effect while in Birmingham a few months since, and 1t is said has repeated the state ment quite recently.

ROBBED AT EARLY HOUR THIS MORNING Charles Foster Victim of Negro
 HighWaymen. KNOCKED FROM HIS WHEEL Relieved of $le.ao in Cash and Gold Filled Watch and Fob-Occurred
 at Avenue F and Twenty
 eighth Street
KNOCKED FROM HIS WHEEL

Charles Foster, a young man who clerks at Lowensohns jewelry store, in First ave- nue. was held up and robbed of $16.20 in cash and a gold-filed watch and a fob chain at Avenue F and Twenty-eighth street about :15 O clock this morning Foster was on his way to his home at SIP Avenue F, and was riding his wheel When he arrived at Avenue F and Twenty-first street two negro men, one of whom he describes as tall and yellow and the other as black and chunky, rushed out from the dark and knocked him off his wheel. While he was lying on the street the negroes went through his pockets, getting the money and watch mentioned. The headlight of his wheel shone in the face of his assailants and thereby enabled him to see that they were negroes and to note their size. AS they knocked Foster from his wheel one or the men said, That's him." which were the only words uttered while going through his pockets. As soon as they had satisfied themselves that they had secured all the yaluables Foster carried the negroes made off in the dark and were soon lost to sight.
 Foster returned to the city as rapidly as possible and reported the matter to Captain Weir, who detailed two policemen to go to the scene of the robbery and try to get on the track of the highwaymen. Foster was covered with mud and and bore marks of the mems hands on his face, where they slapped him. They also secured from him a pocketbook, which contained several re- cepts and other papers.
