Chattanooga at Mobile Nashville at Montgomery. i When all is writ, 1t will be found that tis pride that goes before a fall. One chesty leader, strutting with a near victory well in hand may reach first on palpable hit and deride the losing spec tators-and then be humilated by a crushing defeat in the seventh. It is good to laugh, but time your laughter that it may come after that of your op- ponent.-Ovid.

 In the seventh inning of yesterdays game, the Barons seeming to realize the futility of striking at Bsaherfy, changing their tactics, struck at the ball.
 As a result, in that one inning. they smothered the Atlanta Crackers beneath an avalanche of hits and runs. and took the second game of the series. to 8.
 The benders of Stockdale were much to the taste of the Crackers, but in spite of the fact that during the scrimmage they smashed out Il safe ones, it was only through unnecessary errors that they scored their runs.
 That eccentric heaver F1aherty had the Barons standing on their heads through out the early chapters of the game, and it seemed, finally, that nothing less than cataclysm could undo what the Crack CTS, as a result of their own good hitting, and three miserable errors by the Barons, had accomplished.
 Slaughter in the Seventh But when the seventh rolled around the Barons had accustomed themselves to the rapidity of motion and eel like maneuvers of Flaherty, and there remained nothing else than to slaughter.
 
 left-center, and Emery followed suit with a smash to practically the same spot. Stockdale then attempted a bunt, and did bunt Flaherty made one of his marvel ously quick throws to first, but the ball was not guided by good control, and like a shot, it flashed by the position of Lis ter Continuing its course it struck the ground about 50 feet beyond first, and pitched headong against the fence. By the time Tom Fisher had trailed the hide to it's place of concealment, Ellam had scored, Emery had scored and Stockdale had scored.
 The grandstand was by this time one mass of standing spectators-shouting crying aloud In excitement and joy, hug ging one another, and beating those less demonstrative over the heads and should CTS with hats and newspapers.
 But the good work had just begun.
 Filled the Bases Again
 As soon as the dust had cleared away Marcan pasted one to Walker, which that young man failed to handle. Then Mes senger singled sharply over third. Moles- worth laid down perfect bunt, and r1a- herty's effort to retire Marcan at third encountered failure.
 And the Barons had scored three runs, had filled the bases again and none were outl
 McBr1de then pasted one by Jordan at which the manager looked but did not attempt to field. Marcan and Messenger scored. McGilvray then pushed Moles- worth and Mcbride to third and second and his out at first was the first one 'Rowdy'' Elliott then succeeded to the willow, and his hit screamed through the diamond a mile a minute. Molesworth and Mcbride scored. Ellam and Emery then retired the side.
 Errors Were Disastrous
 The visitors scored in the first on hits by Moran and Smith and a wild heave on an easy chance to the plate by Marcan The Barons evened up in their half of the first. when Messenger, having drawn 8 walk, was scored on Molesworth's double to right field fence.
 The visitors got two others in the fourth. With two down and Flaherty on first. Walker singled to center; Moles- worth let the ball get by him and Fla herty scored. As Walker attempted to reach third Marcan threw wildly to that bag and he scored
 Then came the seventh and the humili- ation of the Crackers. No plays of ex- ceptional merit featured the game. There were many errors. A large gathering of spectators witnessed the fight and were thrilled by the unusual sensations thereof.
