GAME AT EAST LAKE,
erocerymen Defeat Huston Biscuit

With their garments unspotted save by
pure white cracker dust and a defeat or
two recently handed them by local anna
teur associations, the Huston Biscuit com
pany met the "Grocerymen" at East Lake
park yesterday afternoon for bout at the
national sport, but after nine innings of
grunts and groans and much batting by
the latter club they were Satisfied to re-
pair to their various abodes with smears
galore of grease and groceries daubed on
them in great "gobs" by the dealers in
more substantial things to eat.
The game in its earlier stages had the
resemblance of pitchers battle, but
Stewart, the biscuit boys twir1er, had a
dream which was soon over, and aver the
fourth he got his bumps. The grub mem

in touching Stewart up for ten hits and

Games Today.
Birmingham at Memphis.
Montgomery at Shreveport.
Atlanta at New Orleans.

Memphis, June Especial Prior to
the start of the second game between
the Memphis and the Barons at Red Elm
this afternoon, Manager Babb decided on
a line of attack which showed that the
first and third corners of the diamond
were regarded as the weakest points in
the visitors make up. Babb's plans work
ed nicely enough In the early innings for
slow fielding of hunts toward Vaughn en-
abled four local runners to reach first,
while Lee Garvin, who took the place
of the injured Montgomery made three
failures to handle the slow rollers push
ed towards him.
With such plumbers in the mechanical
movements the Memphii placed many run
ners on base during the early innings
but not one scored and when the lat
ter innings rolled around the visitors
commenced to smash the ball hard enough
to get one run in the seventh and an
other in the eighth which proved quite
enough as the locals could corral but a
solitary score.
Wilhelm Is Puzzler.
Sylvester Loucks, recently picked up
from the Atlanta discards, pitched against
Irving wilhelm. The hits were evenly
enough divided but in trickery Wilhelm
may have saved the game for the Barons.
He caught two runners in a chase by
his puzzlng movement, and they were
chased down between first and second,
He wheeled after feinting towards Sec
ond to catch one end of the double steal
in the second inning and trapped Nichols
at third, who was ready to dash to the
plate to complete his end of the double
attempt.
Possibly two thousand people were pres
emit when Thiel started the bunting game
towards Roy Montgomery's deserted sta
ton in the first inning. Garvin, who was
entrusted to the place pending the ar
rival of Alcock who was expected to-
night, was slow to cover the ball and
Thiel landed at first. Wilhelm soon trap
ped him with a chase and he died in Fa-
Their Vaughn's arms after being run down.
The bunting towards first and third con-
tinued in every round but finally Man
ager Vaughn's mettle was tested He
saved the score from being tied in the
eighth inning when he knocked down a
hit aimed at him. He used but one hand,
but 1t served to retire Carey and hold
Babb at third while Nichols. next up,
supplied the third out of the inning.
Gears single, Walters sacrifice and
Matthews single to left scored the first
run in the seventh. Garvins tumble OF
Nadeaus hunt In the Memphis seventh
followed by Plass' sacrifice and owens
single scored Nadeau with the only Mem
phis count.
Wilhelm won his own game in the eighth
with his double, afterwards scoring on
Molesworth's single.
