AUBURN GOES DOWN
 BEFORE ALABAMA
TUSCALOOSA MEN SHOW SUPERI- ORITY AT THE BAT, TAKING ONE HOME RUN AND TEN SINGLES.

Tuscaloosa, April 14-(special)-The first game of the annual baseball series between Alabama and Auburn was played on the university campus this afternoon, and resulted in a victory for the home boys by a score of to 4.
 This was perhaps the most interesting game that has yet been played here, both on account of the nature of the game, and the existing rivalry between the two colleges As to fielding, the teams show ed up about equal both showing that they had been well coached in nice points of baseball. At the bat, however, Ala bama was far superior and to this ad- vantage Is due the victory. The wonder ful Weems of Auburn, who had late record of allowing only three hits in three games, was forced to yield one home run. and ten singles to the pounding Ala bamas, who were evidently bent on en- tirely demolishing his reputation.
 Auburn, however played a splendid game, and made things interesting throughout. The feature of their work was perhaps the batting of Hall. Eding- ton pitched a great game for Alabama, allowing only five hits. The feature of the game was the home run of Robin son of Alabama in the fifth, tieing the score. The series will be completed with a game tomorrow and one Saturday,
