Smith pitched wonderful game yes- terday and Minahan was put to his best to hold his own. Minahans wonderful fielding gives him a handicap over most any pitcher and it certainly told yester. day.
 Matthews took some witty cracks at Abner Powell, his former employer, yes terday. As Powell moved uneasily on the bench during the critical periods, Matty yelled out, "St still. Abner and don't wear your pants out on that bench. The grandstands not moving"
 Matty made the announcement yester- day that most of the catchers in this league had bird heads." When he took Milercks place he tried on four masks and never did find one large enough to fit him. His attempts to adjust the diff ferent masks were ludicrous
 Lynch is doing some wonderful work at second these days, and he is hitting above the S10 marx. So far he has not made pebble on the Birmingham dia- mond and has pinched off one or two hits every game.
 The fans are very much in love with Hanley, the big left fielder. He hits the ball hard and knows every inch of the game. For d man his size he covers an immense amount of territory.
 
 Mellor rapped ball into deep center yesterday that but for Duffy would have gone for three bags. Duffy ran back to the fence and caught the ball as he turn ed This little fielder later got robbed of a beautiful line drive to left which Cro- zier stabbed one foot from the ground.
 In the tenth inning yesterday Millerick was struck on the finger by foul ball in f.ax nj It is probable that he will be out Of the game for several days as his finger is badly lacerated.
 Harry Vaughan will soon be able to get in the game. He was out batting and catching yesterday and suffered no inju- rious consequences. Harry says he is ready to get in the game most any day he is wanted now. His physician, how ever, says don't be in too much of a Hurry.
 Jimmy Tamsett and Hollingsworth, two of the fastest shortstops in the business, were in the game yesterday and both did magnificent work.
 Toney Mullane. the man who umpired yesterday. was formerly a great pitcher. He was with Cincinnati a number of years. He can pitch with either hand. On one memorable occasion in Cincinnati he pitched a twenty-inning game and won it. Harry Vaughan caught him through out the long-drawn out battle. A crowd of ball players were interested yester- day in hearing them recall the experi- ence.
 Billie Smith made one of the prettiest throws of the season yesterday when he caught Koehler off second while attempt ing to stretch a single into a two bag ger.

he, that tuberculosis causes more deaths
Than smallpox, diphtheria, scarlet fever,
typhoid fever. measles, mumps and

States At Is estimated that about y per
cent. of the total Deaths are due TO tl-
bercuiosis. In Baltimore the past five
years there was a, total Of bl.7ls deaths.
OF this number s,tbs, or 1857 per cent,
we're from consumption
