BIRMINGHAM GOT TROUNCING
 AT HANDS OF MULES MEN
Young Maxwell Got in the Game and Made the Coal Miners Look Like Dummies.
 Score to l.

Once again that alleged baseball team up in Birmingham got in one run while the Climbers raised their Mondays score two better, the rnaf score yesterday being 6 to l in favor of Montgomery.
 Bert Maxwell pitched his second game since his arm was hurt, ana again it was a victory for him though far more clean cut one than his win last week. During the game five hits were made of him, and except in the first inning he had the Coal Miners completely at his mercy. In only one inning did two hits come together and that was in the first inning when they got their only run. The other hits were one in the fourth one in the seventh and one in the ninth While he gave two bases on balls and hit batter his steadiness with men on bases and control in tight places was magnificent. In the sixth inning win only one out he lost control of the ball and with Hausen's error the bags were full Not for an instant did ne show the least scintiila of nervousness, letting the next man down on short infield fly and striking out Walters, the third man. The best part of 1t all, however. was the fact that he fintsheu strong. stronger. if anything than when he started. This shows that he is fast getting back his old form, and the Southern League knows what that is.
 Maxwell received superb support from the Climbers and a counterpart of the lightning game put up Monday took place yesterday. Heavy and consistent batting. swift, heady base running and snappy. ginEery neialns literally swept the Birmingham out fit off its feet.
 It would be hard to single out any one man as yesterdays star Every baseball Clayton Perry with his nit one of them played championsnlf ting, fielding and baserunning was possibly the feature card, but to the hard working Heine cusch ien the casions he brought the Birmingham stands to their feet, once in the tourtl | innnfnr when he got under Dale Gears Texas Leaguer and again in the niti when he got Garyin's Texas Leasuet..
