same remarkable form displayed during the St. Paul games in Montgomery. Their work was perfect in every respect and the result of the game brought joy to the hearts of local fandom.
 Oscar Streit, of course, deserves the Hons share of the credit and 1t is possible that his marvellous performance of yester- day will hardly be equalled by a pitcher in the Southern League this season. This southpaw made the remarkable record of striking out fourteen of the Atlanta hit- ters. reputed to be among the best bat ters of the league. He only gave four bases on balls, two of them coming in that unfortunate fifth inning. The three times. and very scattering at that.
 The big crowd in Atlanta was equalled in enthusiasm by the crowd which heard the details of.the game at the telegraphic matinee.
 As heard over the wires the game went about like this:
 Kanzier, the first man to face Frank Wilson hit down towards third and got a life on Taylor's tumble. Spratt hit a foul fly which Stafford muffed, but Will son saved him an error by striking out the third baseman of the Black sox. Molesworth was thrown out at first by Wilson on his hit to the pitcher and Kanzler was caught stealing third.
 In the last half Oscar Streit began that remarkable work which is destined to
 
 League batsmen. Winters. Bennett and Lauzon were the Glrst three men up for the Crackers and the three of them were struck out in rotation. It was said the great throngs of people on the Atlanta bleachers and stands got on their feet and gave the clever Alabama southpaw an ovation that swelled the hearts of the enthusiastic fans at the matinee.
 In the sec ond inning hits by Lew Whistler and Kid Busch with a clever sacrifice by Wi.kie Clark put two runs over the plate, Whisters being earmed. The manager of the Black Sox opened up with a hit to left for one bag, koehler made a fine catch of Ike Durett's long fly to left field and for the second time of the game Taylor juggled a ball. fum- bling Stickney's hit to third. Clark s sacrifice put Whistler on third and Stick ney on second Both of them scored on Kid Busch's two-bagger. Streit retired the side with a foul fly to Stafford, but the score was Montgomery. ,; Atlanta, O.
 In the last half of this inning Streit re- peated his marvellous performance of the

ner and Frank Wilson. the first two men up. Winters was hit by the ball but kanzler got Bennett s hit to second.
 It was one, two, three with the Black Sox in the eighth. Ike Durett was out on a hit to Bennett, Stickney on fly to Koehler and Clark on a hit to Wilson.
 In the last half Lauzon struck out, Spratt made a sensational stop of Ma thews's hot line hit and Streit got Staff ford's hit to Whistler in time.
 The last inning of the Black Sox looked like whole bunch of runs were destined to come over But Frank Wilson fooled 'em. Kid Busch started things with a two-bagger, the swat of which was almost heard at the matinee. Streit struck out, Gruebner fumbed Kanzler's hot hit to second. but Busch was thrown out at the plate and the possible fifth run of the game for the Black Sox was cut off. Spratt retired the side on hit to Taylor and 1t was up to Streit to decide it.
 Kid Busch handled Taylor's hit nicely. Clark got under Koehlers foul tip. Gruebner struck out, and Strait had won his game by a score of 4 and ?.

special to the New Orleans Picayune

A special to the New Orleans Picayune from Pensacola says:
 The preachers of the city, headed by Rev. J. M. Dannelly of the Palafox Street Methodist Church, sprung a sur prise on the baseball fraternity today by calling to the attention of the Sheriff certain State laws prohibiting the games. Today was to witness the opening here of the Interstate League. and fully 1000 peo- pie had prepared to go to Palmetto Beach to see the game between the Mobile and Pensacola teams. when the Sheriff called upon the management of both teams and notified them that he would have to ar- rest every man who participated in the game if 1t was ptayed. Immediately there was meeting of the directors of the To- cal club, when it was decided to surren- der the franchise in the League The ex- penses of the Mobile players were paid, and the three New Orlans players brought here to play with the local team Pico. Bonafay and Willard were sent home. Dowie and Bleecher also of New Or leans, who had been signed. were notified to stay at home. Baseball has been played on Sundays here for ten or more years and it is the first time the efforts of the preachers to put a stop to it were successful.

 They're all in couples this morning, these Southern League clubs. Montgom- cry and Nashville, New Orleans and Memphis. Little Rock and Shreveport and Atlanta and Birmingham being tied in the order named. The superb game of the Black Sox and magnificent pitching of Oscar Streit in the Atlanta game yes terday will have a whole lot of them guessing before the season is much older. Poor old Memphis evidently forgot that they were playing baseball yesterday and Gilks's crowd took the last of the games. New Orleans lost Sundays game before 1S.0OO people, French not getting the sup port that Guese did. The Pelicans got fourteen hits off Dolan yesterday but played yellow fielding game. There will not be any more games in New Or leans or Shreveport until Friday. Mem phis playing Friday. Saturday and Sum day in New Orleans and Little Rock the same days in Shreveport. Montgomery and Atlanta and Nashville and Birming- ham play two more games and then Bir- mingham opens here Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
 Yesterdays games are:
 Nashville A; Birmingham 1.
 Birmingham. Ala. April 27.-Before a crowd of nearly 4,OO0 people. Birmingham was defeated by Nashville today in a beautiful game. On scratch hits and Moss's two-bagger Nashville scored three runs in the first inning and Birmingham was never able at any time to overcome the lead. Smith was wild at times and allowed several bases on balls, while Herman was steady throughout the con- test. Smith struck out seven men. The feature of the game was the sensational playing of third baseman O'Brien for Bir- mingham and shortstop Lowney of Nash vile.

ChaR for the Fans.

The same teams will contest today. Tommy Matthews will probably do the twirling for Montgomery. Brewton's pitcher has not been announced.
 was no ''beefing' with the umpire and the men went in to play ball and they did it. Burnetts bunch of youngsters played in great shape.
 Herk Burnett on first base accepted numerous chances without an error and used the greatest possible headwork at every stage of the game. Burnett was also there with the stick doing business with two singles.
 Ramp. the catcher for Montgomery probably made the best impression. Moth ing went by him and his throwing is quick and accurate. Ackers did magnifi- outs. On account of lack of practice, however. his wing Is a trifle sore and he was far from the form in which he will be seen in midsummer.
 ''Let 'em Run" LaneA the fast young short stop. didn't get the chance yester- day 10 show his qualities. He talked a lot, however, and kept the players In good spirits. Lane also succeeded In get ting a pair of singles.
 Steele on third base played his game perfectly and quietly. as did the entire outheld. Left Fielder Dugan especially.
 Mahoney's work at the indicator was entirely satisfactory, and the only kick the fans had was that Montgomery didn't pull across another run.
 Bobby Langsford who has been playing professional ball so long he has forgotten dates. was the only unsteady member of the local team. Langsford should pull himself together and go in to win.
 The kind of baseball played yesterday is a winner if the home team was not.

Goldsboro, y. c., Oct. 23-Col. Jno. 5.
Cunningham, president Of the State Farm
ers' Protective Association, arrived IN the
city this afternoon where he was SEIZED
uled to make q speech before the Wayne
county branch OF the association, but
was debarred from dong SO or account
o. the very inclement weather which had
prevailed all day
Although the rain fell fast and furious
" this morning ct Fremont a. il did
here the people OF that section were not
deprived of the pleasure OF listening TO
this gifted son of the Old North State
as they were IN this city. The rain greatly
intertered with the attendance, but at the
appointed hour more than a hundred o.
the business men OF the town and the
farmers OF the surrounding section gath-
cred in the town hall, where Col. Gun
ingham mad a most interesting and II
structive speech.
He urged the farmers to raise cotton,
tobacco, corn and hogs and to diversity
such crops. He said that the farmers are
greatly depressed, owing to the low price
OF tobacco and the high prices which
they have to pay for supplies with which
to cultivate their crops. He referred TO
the fact that the people OF this section
have a perfect climate above a f~ertil-
sell, which yields almost every product
Of the temperate zone.
He gave It as his opinion that cool
tobacco would sell higher later on in the
season and that all farmers who car
hold their tobacco viii get better prices,
especially Tor the better grades. Col
Cunningham interspersed his speech today
with several jokes that were keenly rel
ished and rapturously applauded.
Colonel Cunningham read his audience
the charter OF the Farmers Protective
Association and urged on the farmers the
necessity OF organization II they expect TO
accomplish through legislation, both State
and National, what other branches OF IN
dustry have obtained. He said that at
a State meeting of the farmers some time
ago resolutions were adopted. copies Of
which were sent to the Senators of North
Carolina and Virginia, the two principal
tobacco growing States, with the request
that they present the same to President
Roosevelt and request him to deposit
some OF the treasury surplus IN the banks
OF this section a. he is doing in some OF
the Western States. He explained that
such a course would be benencial to ali
classes of people and that the South
which is a part Of the country as well
as the West, had as much right to use
the surplus as any section.
In closing his speech Colonel Cunning
ham paid an eloquent tribute to the ad
m~lnlstration of Governor Aycock.
