Defeats the Pratt City Club By Score
 of 12 to 2.


 The Howard college baseball team played their first game yesterday after noon and defeated the Pratt City crack team by score of 12 to 2. For the first seven innings the collegians goose-egged the Pratt City boys as fast they came to the bat. The greatest feature of the game was the pretty work of Williams, How ards southpaw pitcher. It was the most phenomenal work seen on the amateur diamond thls season. He famed out six teen men and only allowed two hits.
 For Howard the heavy batting was done by Fred Bell, Jones and Stevens. For Pratt the batting was done by Me Kay, who made the hit that brought two men across the plate, thereby saving the Pratt City boys from a shutout. Following is the lineup:
 Howard-Byron, second base; Martin, center field; Gordon, left field; Jones, first base; Cunningham, right field; Stew ems, catcher; Fred Bell, third base; French Bell, shortstop; Williams. pitcher.
 Pratt City-Fairley, second base; Me Kay, center field; Woodman, left field; Finley, first base; Vaughan, right field; Gammell catcher; Stovall, third base; S. Nelson, shortstop; Nelson and Donald son, pitchers.

Started Off With Rush.

hSi eS6 VII Bihii
 Another reason is that Birmingham started off with a rush, but soon there- after were set down good and hard, and there was little chance for an eruption in the bleachers.
 In the first inning Duffy manipulated four balls and walked to first. Lawler popped one up to the pitcher and Leigh ton hit safe. sending Duffy to third. Me Connel flied out to right field and Duffy scored. Millar got safe on Higgins error and Leighton went to third. moment later Jimmy Brlen cracked out beau tiful single and Leighton scored Millar was thrown out trying to reach third and the side retired.
 Things rocked along nicely until the fourth inning, when the whole shebang went up in smoke. Partridge had been little wild, but this time he managed to lay them over the plate, and the St. Paul boys proceeded to establish slaughter house on the field Pierce, first up, walked. Schaeffer hit for two bags. Kel- ley grounded out to Jimmy O'Brien and Huggins was hit by a pitched ball. filling up LAt DdotS. NdiOdh IAN SeltB StlNiii5 in two runs, and on a mlxed-up throw by Leighton all three men trotted in home. Sullivan hit safe but Davis went out. Shannon came next with a three-base drive to center and this, coupled with Jaekson's two-bagger, turned the dia- mond into merry -go-round, with the St. Paul sluggers touching the home rubber with a pitiful regularity. Pierce ended the agony by striking out. After that one more run was made on each side, and the players packed up their duds and left.
 o'Brien Hit Ball Hard.
 The work of Jimmy O'Brien yesterday was of the warm order. Besides making some beautiful stops, he unserewed three clean hits and got a base on balls. Law Ter also did some great work at second. Keenan, who went into relieve Partridge in the fifth inning, held the heavy hit ters down to few hits, and only allowed them one run.
 The game this afternoon will be called promptly at 3:3O o'clock, and as it Is the last game to be played in fast league company, large crowd is expected.

 Frank Smith may go in the box for the locals, but as he was still a little sore yesterday. it is possible that he will not be allowed to use his arm to any extent.
 The tale of yesterdays struggle is a mournful one, and it looked as if neither team nor the spectators cared whether the 'old hen set or jumped off" The game was absolutely lacking in interest, but withal some good ball playing was seen. The lack of interest WAS probably due to the heavy wind which was con tinually blowing across the field, causing the players to misiudge high balls and throw badly
