ed and veitch singled, but both were left on Leidy's easy out, short to first.
 The game was won in the ninth. When this inning opened the score stood one to nothing in favor of Little Rock. Sullivan, the first man up died at first on a hit to third, Mills waited and took his base. The rooters were raising pandemonium and Popp was rattled Wilhelm hit an easy one which fell into Lowney's hands and the crowd thought the jig was up, but Moss walked and Popp hit Veitch with pitched ball, fillnig the bases. Of the 1200 or more spectators present not one was sitting down at this time All were yelling and waiying hats. handkerchiefs, umbrellas, or any old thing that hands could be laid upon. Leidy faced Popp and dodged two wild balls. The third one struck him in the back and he took his base, Moss cross ing the home plate and tying the score. The yelling, already deafening, grew louder and louder until old Red Moun- tain roared with it's increasing volume
 Gettinger came up with the determina- tion to swat the ball over the fence, but 1t never came within reach of him. Popp delivered two, one going three feet back of him and the other still further on the other side of the plate. Iris was too much for Captain Lynch of the visitors and he ordered him to the bench. Black burnt took up the work where Popp had left off and handed Gettinger two more bad ones This forced Moss across the plate and the game was won. LaRocque retired the side by forcing Gettinger at second.
 In this inning eight men were at bat and only three of them got a chance to touch the ball. Two runs were scored and not a hit made.

 The Hooters.
 The rooters had great deal to do with yesterdays victory. They shouted and yelled at Popp until they had him so bad ly rattled he did not know whether he was pitching with his hands or his feet. But with all this shouting the Birming- ham players say 1t is nothing compared with the noise made at the games in Lit tie Rock, especially when the Little Rocks are in the lead. The players say that the spectators go to the park in that city armed with tin horns, tin pans, COW bells, or any other old thing that will make a noise, and that they are used for all they are worth.
 Brandt will pitch for the locals today and Sparger for the visitors. The game will be called at o'clock.
 Umpire Ebright gave satisfaction in the game yesterday, although he is hard on the pitchers, making them split the plate, but as he plays no favorites in this re- spect, no kicks were made.
