miskey's Chicago colts won by a score of 10 to T. there was an abundance of good hard hitting from the jump and when the Coal Barons cracked out three two-baggers and the same number of singles in one inning the rooters yelled themselves hoarse.
 The broadside was turned on Owen in the third inning and the Birmingham players took successive cracks at the ball until the little bundle or horse hide was spinning into all corners of the lot When the ammunition run out the Coal Barons had chalked up four runs and, but for a mishap on third, would have made 1t an even five, thus tying the score.
 Chicago opened up on Keenan in fierce style and before the curtain had dropped on the first inning the figure was hang ing on the score board. The White sox all hit hard and fielded their positions admirably, but pair of dumb plays made

 Marked Improvement.
 The Birmingham team showed a marked improvement over their performance n the initial contest last Friday with New York and all of them handled themselves in much better style.
 Mllrick made a decided hit and his back stop work was of the first water Not a Chieagoan was allowed to puroin the second sack and all who attempted 1t were sent back to the bench sadder but wiser men. In addition to his throw ing the big catcher cracked a two bag ger into center field that started the fire works in the third and though that was the only time he anchored safely the fans found a big lot of steam behind his willow.
 Mcconnell and Duffy sustained their reputations as hitters, and Leighton. the local amateur, is rapidly developing into a star. All three of these men rapped the ball good and hard, and in tls field behaved nicely. oBrien showed great.

the younger folk a good game and a
large attendance may be expected.
Those who like horse racing, a large
and growing element, will be given the
opportunity of se&ng some good races,
both trotting and running. The horses
entered in each event are the best
of the locals, and many strangers with
hne records. Again, the track is in
good condition and the officers of the
meet are experienced and competent so
there is every reason to expect good
sport.
Not the least enjoyable affair of the
day is expected to be the turkey shoot
and oyster roast of the Savannah Rifle
Association, which will be held at
Avondale Range, beginning on the ar
rival of the $50 o'clock car. There will
be target shooting with turkeys as
prizes, shooting at live birds. and
continuous oyster roast with the usual
trimmings.
Other amusement will be furnished
those whose taste runs in another d.
rection, for there will be both a matt
nee and night performance in the
theater by the Mabel Paige Company.
Again, in the late afternoon, the Y. M.
c. A. will give large reception sup
per and entertainment to the members
and their friends. These affairs which
are given each year, are usually we'll
attended, and the one to-day promises
to be unusually popular.
The day. will not be given wholly to
amusement. however, for a service to
consecrate the New Year will be held
in Fspworth Methodist Church at 8
O'Clock p. m. 1t will be conducted by
Rev. H. G. Christian, pastor of Wesley |
Monumental Church, and promises to |
be both interesting and well attended. |

SPORTS AND ADJUSTMENTS
MARK THE HOLIDAY

The New Year. like Christmas and
Thanksgiving, is holiday devoted
chiefly to sports and outdoor amuse-
ments, and to-day will be no exception
to this rule. The holiday will be OBJ
served by a general closing of the
greater number of business offices for
either the whole, or a half, day, and
will be observed as an entire holiday
by the banks. Most of the wholesale
stores and some of the retail businesses
also, will make it a half holiday.
1t is expected consequently that there
will be large attendances at each of
the various amusements that have
been planned for the day, that is unless
inelement weather should interfere
with the outdoor sports and this is
by no means unlikely as the forecast
for the day promises cloudy weather,
possibly rain.
The chief event of interest will be
the game of football that is to be
played between the Savannah team
and an eleven from Charleston at the
Bolton Street Park, in the afternoon.
The more interest centres in this from
the report that Charleston has a very
fast eleven and further because it has
been announced that this will be the
last game of the Savannah team this
season. Tho game will begin at
o'clock
Lighter teams will contend on the
gridiron at II o'clock a, M. when the
High School team will be pitted against
the eleven of the Lawton Cadets. Both
teams are strong ones. though light,
and as they have many friends among
