 Ut was a case of could not find the plate with the Climbers this after noon. while the Bernard-Perdue comb ination yanked in eight very large the plate so fast that it made Mont gomerian's head throb. while at the same time. the bugs of this town were made delirious with q joy that could not be controlled.
 And what a crowdI The terrific clip at which the Volunteers have been going for the past week. together with the great article of ball that they are largest crowds ever seen in Nashville. It was the fifth straight win for the Volunteers today and likewise the fifth straight win for Hub Perdue.
 Talk about Q bunch of crazy people Well. say. the fans of this town would make batty house look like q band of philosophers. The big grand stand seats in the neighborhood of 2'800 only was every available seat, includ- ing the rows of boxes at the foot of the stand. filled with Q rahid. wild. eyed, leather lunged fan. but rows as chairs were ranged alongside the pas men were standing in rows at the hack of the passage-way. Four of the five tiers of the bleachers were packed and taking 1t altogether. there was between s,4oo and $500 yelling fans in the grounds.
 And did they have good time9 We'll. they had large clusters of yells coming all through the game and to- the Hermitage farm in, while the good people of Sumner County are thinking seriously of running him for Governor in the place of both Patterson and Carmack. He has already received the unanimous endorsement of the people of Gaflattn for the office of Mayor of the town that ts honored by claiming him as a favorite son.
 The Montgomery end of it7 Well. there was hardly any Montgomery end to 1t. to tell the truth, for the lad from Sumner had the Indian sign fastened on them with even more garish lights than Mir. Bernhard did in the couple of sad days that fortunately had talk day.
 only five scattering hits were made on Perdue. who was given about the cleanest, snappteSt support that pitcher ever got.
 McCafferty started in for the Climb CTS but he did not have very good con trol and the bunch from this town were hammering him so hard when he put them over that in the last half of the fifth Jimmy Ryan pulled him out and sent Juul to the hill to sec what effect his southpaw delivery would have on the hard hitting bunch from Sulphur
 Up to the last of the fourth inning five hits had been made off McCaferty and they were so cleverfy intermingled with five pretty expensive errors made by the Climbers that four runs had come over the plate.
 The first run came in the first inning when Bay walked. stole second and counted op Hunters hit. Daubert was walked in the second. was sacrificed to second by Butler and counted on Hub Perdue's hit.
 Daubert ripped open the fourth with a long drive to center for three bags. Then Butler rammed one to deep csn- ter for a home run, the ball rolling in hole near the center fence. Daubert and Butler amhling over the plate and

For Si% SMD while d he @ had struck s @ out four four men s Hunter, Eiegle, Daubert and Doc Seabaugh biting at his speedy curves. The first hit made off him was by Hub and the bali was too far out for Juui. both runners going safe, and both SCOT ing when Archie Persons let Wiseman,e hit get by him.

 These Nashville games are over and now It's try the game in the City of Slag.
 witness in a suit that was brought against President Kuhn of the Nash vile Association this morning. Yates, the outfielder who afterwards went to Mon tRomery, was with Nashville in the spring of last year. He boarded with a. Mrs Kullum and this morning she brought suit against the Nashville As- sociation for a S25 board bill for Yates last spring. At the hearing of the case the verdict went for the Nashville Baseball Association and against Mrs. Kullum. Archie was 1t.
 It Is a significant fact that the Nash vile team has not lost q game since the kangaroo act of Mccormick and the fans here say that if he had jumped month sooner Nashville would now be in first place. It is said that McCor- mick Is trying mighty. hard to get in good again with Bernhard.
