Smitty's Awful Rap.

Smitty, however. had the necessary goods and twisted his bat around the ball to start off one of the most terrific raps ever viewed in the neighborhood of West End The ball went on a dead line to the fence in deep right center ana Smitty was on third before the ball had gotten back to the infield. Duke. in the meantime, had strolled homeward and that en1ed the run-getting for the first game.
 In the next inning Kennedy came up and was given the glad hand. In re- sponse to repeated calls to Knock her out he lambasted one of Stocksdales 8 benders and sent the ball scooting into the right-eenter corner of the park for three bags On Lawlers grounder he was thrown out at the plate and for the rest of the game it was a case of whip- saw with neither side able to deliver.

The Birmingham age-herald., 1903-08-19

The second game was nothing more nor less than pitchers battle between Streit and Campbell and a battle for blood at that Both men were on their mettle and the great crowd knew it. It is said that large sums of money had been wagered in Birmingham and Montgomery the night before, on this contest between the two southpaws and the excitement was intense.
 Though Streit pitched magnificent ball Campbell outpointed him from the start and keeping up his steady work the little Iron Man landed a well earned and loudly applauded victory. Campbell was never in better form in his life and the ragged remnants of the nine Legislators who frailed the air during the game Is grue- some evidence of how he had them guess ing.
 Duke Starts It of.
 Though there were many critical stages to the contest matters didn't grow serious until the eighth in- ming, when the Iron Barons be- hind the popular little pitcher decided to go in and win or call off the deal for the day It was a great opportunity for Duke, the youngster on third and he failed not III Idk1DB duNdDldSe lntTtOls <Aitti Ahet- guire had gone out on grounder to Spratt this boy of green years took swish with his amateur willow and sent the ball whizzing toward the score board for three bases. Campbell came next and after hitting a few fouls for practice land ed right on the nose of one of Streits plate splitters. He drove the ball to deep center for two bases and Duke again came home with the first, last, only and win ming run.
 After that the game was quiet.
 Busch a Star.
 While extolling the virtues of the Iron Men it must not be forgotten that Mont gomery was playing some. Kid Busch did some of the prettiest work at short ever witnessed around these diggings. He went after everything In sight and gener- ally got what he was looking for. On one occasion he made a dive behind second base after one of Handlers drives and turned out the prettest stop of the season. He fielded the ball as quick as lightning and the ball was shooting to first before the spectators had gotten through laugh ing about what they thought great hit. It was indeed phenomenal piece of work. The score:

Council Revises Ordinance Re-
lating to the Fire Limits
of the City
WILL MEAN BETTER BUILDINGS
Sheet Iron Covered Structures, Made
to Initiate Brick, Will be Done Away
With in the Business District in the
Future - Many Fire Traps About
Town Within Present Fire Limits.

The city council met Monday night
for the express purpose of considering
ordinances, preparatory to the general
revision which is soon TO be made
Messrs. Greene, Henry and Psenicka
were not present so that there was not
a sufficient number to suspend the
rules. Two dozen different ordinances
wer considered and placed on their
second readings. Mir. Webster. in the
absence of Mayor Jones presided at the
meeting.
The most important of the ordinances
considered was that of extending the
fire limits OF the city which, when
passed. will prevent the building OF
small frame structures. covered with
galvanized iron. and made to Initiate
brick. The council is alive to the Inn
portance Of preventing too many OF
these buildings to be erected WITHIN
the fire limits, and means to increase
the boundaries of the present fire nm
its SO that hereafter buildings OF sucn
a character can not be erected. The
small buildings spoil the beauty of the
business district, and the council feels
that they are dangerous. A great many
fire traps were pointed out within the
present fire limits. old buildings and
sheds that were built years ago before
any fire limits were established.
The new limits, as now proposed,
will extend north to the alley north
OF State, between Third avenue and
Second street Returning south on
Second to Main, a jog of one block is
made to First ehence south to the
alley between Church and Linn, and
east on that alley to Third avenue.
The limits in the depot district were
also extended.
According to the ordinance, as revis-
ed, nothing but stone or brick build
ings will be allowed within the fire
limits.
/. is likely that the fire limit ordi-
nance will come up for passage at the
next regular meeting Of the council.
