Once more George Stultz has made good as one of the best pitchers in the South ern League. He shut the Pelicans out yesterday, letting them down with three hits, two of the hits coming in the ninth inning.
 Up to the seventh inning not a hit was made off of Stuitz and first base might as we'll have been in the Fiji Islands as far as the New Orleans aggregation was concerned. The initiaR bag appeared to them to be a million miles from tho plate, and, strive as they might, the Peli- cans were utterly unable to reach the coveted bag
 stultz pitched great ball. He was as cool at all times as watermelon on big block of ice, and several times he pulled himself out of ugly-looking holes master. His control was wonderful He gave only two bases on balls. and the way in which he scooped up Smiths hit in the eighth inning and ran Hurley down between first and second, demonstrated that his generalship and fielding Is as perfect as his pitching.
 His support was 1S-karat, too. Some of the individual plays bordered on the sensational and brought the fans to their feet with yells that will result in good many sore threats.
 Childs remarkable run and pull-down of Montgomery's fly in the sixth inning | ever witnessed on the local grounds, and | brought out a tremendous ovation for the chubby second baseman. | A stop by Kid Busch and one by Spratt also brought out thunders of applause. Altogether it was one of those golden | days that makes the average fan feel that there is something in this prosaic | old world after all.
 While Smith had splendid control only | giving one pass, the Black Sox hit him
 when hits were needed. getting nine hits, | Whistler having a couple of opportune 1 singles, Flanagan two-bagger and a single, Childs a two-bagger. and Clark, | Spratt, Molesworth and Kanzlier got sim l gles.
 In the last half of the first, the Black | Sox started off in their usual impetuous,
 rushing style, going after Smith as If | they meant to put him out of business for | good. With Childs down. Kanzlier hit | hot to handle. Kanzlier got the bag all right, but was forced out at second on l Moiesworth's hit to Prout. Then Whis- l tier lined out beauty to right field. and on Flanagan's clean hit. Molesworth
 scored Whistler scoring an earned run | on Spratts long drive and on Hurley S 1 wild throw to catch Spratt at second | Flanagan trotted in with the third run | of the game, and, as it proved to be, the | last.
 In the last of the sixth. the locals al- | most had another run. With his second hit, Flanagan lined out a two-bagger that put the manager
 on third, Spratt hit down to Atz who re-
 turned the ball to Hurley in time to nir
 Whistler at the plate, Smith catching Spratt playing off first
 The Pelicans hardly had look in dur ing the nine innings, and the game ended three and nothing in favor of the Black
 Sox, the score being

terday was the grandstand. The ladies demonstrated their enjoyment of the game, and many fair hand IS req tnis morning Refining will pitch for the Black Sox today. 1t will be his first league game, and everybody hopes he will show up well.
 The most remarkable thing about the present game of the Black Sox is the manner in which the infieldA has been steadied.
 Keefe is the best umpire seen here this season, the only one, in fact. The uniamented Mace could hardly be called an umpire.
 Something happened to these Western aggregations yesterday-3 and O. 3 and 0. and 2, and F and 8, represent their vic- torious careers.
 Hurley had on a Red Mems badge and from the roofing in the grandstand he had a good many friends out. But it didn't get him nothing
 Keefe knocked the Black Sox out of a couple of double plays yesterday. his faailure to give the decision in one of them almost giving the Pelicans a run. Dannehower, the man who struck out | sixteen men, will be in the box for the Pelicans today. But Refining and the | Black Sox will handle him all right and make it three straights.
 The clarks and three Smiths are large part of this league. There are two catchers and two pitchers named Clark and two pitchers and a short-stop rejoice in the Patriarchal patronymic of Smith.
 Mir. Stultz moved down the mighty Pelicans with the utmost nonchalance. MT. Stultz's efforts were not put forth l merely to establish himself in the good graces of the local fans. He was already favorite.
 Shreveport got up against something l fierce in Jack Keenan and the Ballyhoos hit there, suspicious that whisperings i must have been circulating in the neigh
 borhood of the slag pile.
 Judge Kavanaugh has allowed the pro- test made by Memphis when New Or- leans put Hutchcroft back in the game. That game has been thrown out and the standing of Memphis this morning is just like 1t was yesterday, while New Orleans has one less game.

 Andy Roth was sold to Nashville. the l deal having been closed with Newt Fisch- l CT yesterday morning, whereby Whistler gets big bunch of money.
