shreveport at Atlanta.
 New Orleans at Montgomery.
 Memphis, May 23.-( -(Special.)-A clean two-sacller by Nick Carter, an error by Oylcr in throwing Neighbours bounder wild to first, permitting Carter to arrive at third. and a long drive to centerfield by Frank Owens, which, notwithstanding thu sensational loaping; catch by Moles- worth, allowed Nick to score, ended the last and most exciting game of the Bir- mingham series, and marked the seventh straight victory for Memphis.
 It was a grueling finish to a hard fought game in which Messrs. Cristall and Ragan locked horns in determined fashion. Both were effective, and both toied manfully to capture the candy But the star-eycd goddess of the great game had her searchlights trained on the home lads and there was no friendly smile for Birmingham.
 The great state of Alabama will have reason to remember the last game of the teams in the Bluff City. Carter touched the match to the talley fuse in both in- nings in which the Hustlers scored. Lead ing off with q single In the second, he was advanced whom Neighbors got q pass and both moved up a station on Hurl- burt's sacrifice. Cristall brought Carter in with q single and Neighbors romped home on Plass' fly 10 left Then Buck Thel lambas:ed a long one for three bases into center, scoring Crstall, but died on third when Babb "skied.' Two bases on balls in the fifth for Birming ham, a sacrifice by Oyler which moved both runners up, and single by Walters to left brought in both runners. The visitors tied the score in the next inning on pair of two-sackers by Gardner and Alcock Prospects looked bilious for the locals when Gardner in the ninth, led off with a single, but frightened again when Alcock flied out 10 short and Gar win famed then elouded up darkly when Lister got q hard slam to center that advanced Gardner 10 third, and placed the batter on second. But Oyler winged out on a pop fly to Cristall and the locals trouped in to win.
 Hurlburt was put out of the game in the fifth inning for questioning too stren- uously decision of a strike by Umpire Zimmer. owens took his place. Sensa- tional fielding for the visitors was done by Molesworth, Oyler and Lister
