 The usual double materialized.
 Kanzlier's sacrifice was beautiful one and resulted in run.
 Kanzlier's two -bagger was as clean as | if 1t had been chemically treated. I Bob Stafford stole few points off Kid I when | the short-stop's liner.
 Good thing there is no game today. It will take day or so to get rid of the nauseating effects of the visit of the At
 lantians
 Bennetts stop of Whistler's grounder | and the resultant double play was one of | the prettiest pieces of fielding ever seen
 at Athletic Park.
 Crozier misjudged Jack Brennan's fly
 about thirty feet. The wind held the | ball, and the fault was not that of the
 auburn-haired left fielder. The hit went | for safety.
 | It was with a genuine sigh of relief
 guest when the oratorical contestants | from Atlanta boarded the Louisville and
 Nashville train last night. l the seventh, Tndue Il nODie
 effort for a home run. He landed vici- | ously on one of Stultzs blenders, but the l ball went on a line and not high enough
 in the air. Stafford went to first, but | got no further.
 Flanagan is now playing a splendid
 game in left. His fielding is sensational,
 his batting timely and on the bases his
 work is not only speedy, but he uses ex-
 cellent Judgment and is not afraid to | take chance.
 Clarks arm was working like a Krag l Jorgensen rife yesterday Once he caught | the speedy Winters so far that spectators | expected George to try to get back to | first. Instead Winters waited calmly to | be touched out.
 The Birmingham team cannot get here | in time to play the postponed game today | and 1t will be played on the first off day
 which Is the 9th of July. The three
 regular scheduled games will be played with Birmingham this trip-Friday, Satur- | day and Sunday.
 A telegram was sent to Judge Kava-
 naugh last night asking him to send
 Carpenter here for the Birmingham and | Nashville games. Carpenter is the only
 umpire who has been here this season
 who commands the respect and confidence
 of both players and public. l It IS well TOT the national game In | Montgomery that the Atlanta aggrega-
 tion's appearance here Is infrequent. | Powelrs men are the worst kickers ever
 seen on a local diamond. When an um- | pire's decisions are unjust, human nature
 compels a protest from the player who Is
 wronged. That Umpire Brennan Is not
 correct in all his iudgm ants Is patent to
 any spectator. The Atlanta players, | however do not confine their objections
 to decisions which are improper, If their
 action in the series just ended Is criterion.
 Insensate growlings silly howls, absurd | protestations followed each deliverance of | judgment by the umpire. It would per- | haps, be unjust to say that Manager
 Powell encouraged the rowdy actions of
 his men. That he either condoned the | puerile wranglinR or Is incapable of con | trolling the men he has employed, no one
 who saw Tuesdays or yesterdays game | can deny The Crackers made themselves | obnoxious at every opportunity. Like the
 rain their wranging fell alike upon the | decision just and the decision unjust. | Tactics never before seen in Montgomery l were used to browbeat and frighten the
 umpire. Disgusting "beefs." silly protes-
 tations and unspoTtsmanlike actions fol- ! lowed each other. The Crackers are gone.
 Montgomery patrons may well rejoice If
 the Atlanta players do not improve their
 conduct from other towns will be heard
 the plea which has been heard here:
 Judge Kavanaugh. please deliver us."
