kicks were made on him during the game and both of these were good ones. In the first place he called McAndrews out at the plate when he looked pretty safe, but that was a close one and the fans have decided to give him the benefit
 of the doubt. The hair which broke the
 eameis back came In the latter part of
 the eighth when hopes ran high and
 victory was near. Vaughan was on third
 and Smitty on first with two out. Brown
 in attempting to dodge the ball hit a
 grounder towards second base and Smith
 fumbled He attempted to pitch It to
 Beck but Smitty was already there when
 to the horror of fandom Keefe gave Smitty the high ball motion, which meant that he was out. An awful growl arose from the rooters. Players rushed around
 expostulating with Keefe but there was
 nothing to be done but to swallow the dose. It was a rank decision and prob ably beat Birmingham out of the game
 as Bawler who came up first the next inning hit safe. Keefe is a good umpire ordinarily and he should try to mend his erring ways of yesterday. All Birming- ham wants Is what Is coming to her and nobody will kick

AndtI guess that's umpiring son

Birmingham dished out large cluster of hits trapped with a froth of pebbles yesterday and In a running fight of over two hours crossed the wire in the class Of also rans. The Pirates put the block to Crabells delivery in the infant period of the struggle and scudded enough runs homeward to take a hitch in the Iron Makers immediate schances for the first division. The close score of to tells nothing of the awful suffering of the HOO fans who journeyed ito West End to wit ness a struggle of giants. Error after error anchored runners on the bags and the bifflng of the visitors trotted them home. Shreveport also jumped on the band wagon toward the finish and had in- field grounders ricocheting all over the diamond. A few nice clouts at the pro per time wouldAhave driven many an Iron Maker home and the game was liable to be broken up at any minute.
 Birmingham Hit Ball Hard.
 Birmingham handed out hits in large, Juicy punches but none of them came at the proper time and the O'Brienites final ly went to the bench with record of eighteen men leIL LIS bags. If any team can top that record around these diggings the manager will have to give an exhibition, as the Bir- mingbam fans are all from Missouri.

pany at Bell park tlteater Friday nlg5t.
Nh Taylor has received the most fiat
tering notices from the leading daily
papers throughout the west and south
fer his masterful Interpretation OF
this. the most difficult Iole known to
the stage, the dual role of Dr.. Jekvli
and Mr.. Hyde" The play wields a
peculiar fascination over its auditors
Tie intense dramatic situation. IT,
strangness of the plot the noblon css
of Dr.. Jekyll. the relentless cluelty
OF the monster Hyde. and tie air Of
mystery that shrouds the nay, makes
it one of the most faseina ing dramas
of the age. The play las been pre-
sented by but few actO.s Richard
Mansfield and Sir Henry Irving Civ
ing but occasional performances Of it.
The nervous strain Of assuming the
dual role forbids the r.aying Of it
regularly. 1t is at the request Of bis
many Pine Bluff friends that Mr.. Tay-
lOr present it here Friday night.
