Games Today

It was a most disappointing Fourth of July.
 In the first place. but one game was played and that was taken by the Nash vile Volunteers.
 In the second place, every baseball lover in Birmingham was incensed in the afternoon when Umpire O'Brien over the protest of Manager Molesworth and Manager Bernhard, called off the after noon's engagement.
 Had the umpire postponed calling the game for ten minutes he would have found the sun shining.
 The grounds were in fine condition.
 The crowd left the field keenly disap- the official who had ruled so arbitrarily.
 Bauer Weakened In Ninth.
 The Volunteers took the first battle by a score of to 2.
 This result was occasioned by Gar rson finish on the part of the visitors, for their only run prior to the ninth was due to a wild pitcn by Bauer.
 But in the ninth all his speed forsook him and his curve failed to bend.
 The disaster was inevitable, and when Bauer's ineffectiveness was abetted and assisted by errors by Downey and Wal ters, 1t was a foregone conclusion that the result would come in the nature of a landslide.
 In the final inning the Volunteers piled up four runs, and these added to the one scored on a wild pitch in the second gave them a total of five,
 Johnny Duggan pitched well through out. While the Barons hit him in nearly every inning it was impossible to bunch bingles after the opening inning.
 In the first after Molesworth was out, Demont Raub and Douglass hit in suc- I cession, Douglass hit being the bingle that placed two men across the pan.
 The feature of the game was a rank decision of Umpire O'Brien in calling i Butler out at the plate when everyone about the field knew that he had scored. The hitting of Douglass. Bauer and But Ter and the brilliant fielding of Downey are noteworthy.
 O'Brien Literal Translator" 1 When it was o'clock in the after noon, it was sprinkling. i So fine was the sprinkle, however, that everyone realized that the damp ness could not continue for a longer period than 10 minutes.
 The fans were yelling, Play ball!' 1 Umpire OBrien was threatening to call the game. Manager Molesworth pleaded with him. Manager Bernhard pleaded with him. l The fans pleaded But MT. O'Brien was literally trans | lating an alleged rule, and called the i game.
 q am carrying out instructions, " said he
 If we could start the game" he ] added, q would call it and wait half 1 an hour. But the game hasn't started 1 you know" 1 R. H. Baugh, president of the asso- 1 ciation asked the umpire to recon slider, explaining that Judge Kavan- l naugh meant for his umpires to use discretion, judgment and common l sense.
 But OBrien called the game and 1t l stuck.
 Just then the sprinkle having ceased, the sun broke from behind cloud. l For the remainder of the afternoon 1 everything was calm and tranquil.
 But there was no game just the same.

Afternoon game:

The afternoon game proved the easiest kind of victory for Memphis. In the fourth inning Eastman was batted at will, which, coupled with ragged fielding, allowed the local team to score nine runs. Neuer relieved Eastman in this inning, and while he pitched good ball the result was never in doubt. Scope

The last of the election cases in
volving the form OF the general cleo
ton ballot to be used at the forth
coming election has been decided,
and the office of the secretary of
state which prepares. and approves
the form of the ballot so far as the
state candidates are concerned, has
given the official so. k.,''s to the
printers through the state. There
are five sets of presidential electors
to be voted for: Republican, DEMO
cratic, Prohibition, independence and
Socialist. There are only two state
tickets appearing in party columns,
the Republican and the Democratic.
The Prohibitionist and independence
parties have no state tickets, being
interested in the election so. far as
their presidential electors are con-
cerned. The Socialists have, a state
ticket, but under a ruling of the su-
preme court it appears in the 'sindi-
vidual nomination coiumn and not
under a party heading.

place where there was plenty of grass.
After he had had his supper and the

Dan soon fell asleep.
In the middle OF the night he found
himself propped up or one elbow, half
awake listening for something, he
knew not what. At length he was
fully awakened by a low whinny from
up the road. Half suspiciously he
crawled &c the back end Of the wagon
and pushed aside the flap of the cover,
There, some thirty or forty rods up

Dan saw the forms OF the tall, lank
stranger and--Triby. He sprang
from the wagon, uttering shrill
whistle. Hardly had the notes reach
ed Trilby's ears till she reared up in
the air and gave a tire mendous lounge
ward. Whether from fright or
surprise. the stranger dropped the
rope and ran. Dams only weapon was
the neckyoke which he had III. con-

himself with conjecturing as to what
would have happened ha6 he been
better armed.

spent in training her.

more care than before and became
teven a greater pet. This was inter
rupted, however, when the fall after
she was five years old, Dan bought an
