 It's quite diffeernt story in that burg They are up aaginst it, it seems.

 "Cough up, you hear them say, turn loose the scads. We can't win with bunch of dubs that knows little differ ence- between a hammer and base hit" We can hear them because we have said those very same things ourselves.

Last evening. shortly after o'clock, it was all very quiet along the rialto.
 There was a lack of rollicking which had delighted the passersby on days pre- vious and no gladsome sparkle burst from the eye of fan.
 Foolish question No All ,2s7 1-3-Why?
 Because the Climbers had met our con- quering heroes, and walloped them black and blue.
 But hold on,
 Our record on the road is still very fine when you think about it. We have lost but three games and won five.
 And when you give the situation an- other thought. our standing is all right. We have won half our fights.
 So why the tearlet, Murphy dear? The stream still laps the Dundee's banks, and stands there still the willow!
 But while we have met no Waterloo, and no death on a dismal Elba is likely to be our destiny, that double -barreled defeat is little hard of digestion.
 But there is no difficulty in finding out why we lost In the first. Whitey Guese was shark with all the little fishes backed into corner Until the seventh he yielded no base on balls or swats that looked anything like safeties. And in the meantime the pesty Climbers had made no errors. So the paths gave forth no echo of a Baronial footstep. and all for the nonce. was dark. Lower had not Jared so we'll He gave a few bases on balls and was touched up for a few swatlets and big swats. And the Climbers by the coming of the seventh had piled up a quartet of runs.
 Our rally in the final round fell short, and there you are.
 Then starts the second. F1eharty was the man sent to the mound to save honor. But F'leharty proved an honor preseryer full of holes. He was freely clouted by the hirelings of Monsieur Greminger and toward the shank of the performance was chased to a bare seat on the bench. pr. Thomas, in the meantime, had kept our brave boys guessing throughout, and whenever it appeared that an opportuni- ty to register was presenting itself he took an extra hitch in his trousers. turned the tobacco in his jaw several times and it was all off. So there you are a second time.
 Mighty glad we got that first pair. You bet you are
 There are two interesting matters to which we wish to refer.

 That catcher down in Montgomery. Miller by name, was offeerd to Birming- ham once. As matter of fact the team of the New York State league, to which he formerly belonged, tried to make us take him. But he drifted on down to Mobile. and there did only indinerently we'll He was turned over to Montsom- cry this year. and since then, as a result of his ball hogging, the tall timbers have been kept kindling Unless some pltcher with a good fast one and a good curved one stops him he will establish lead which cannot be overcome.
 Harold Johns, the sidewheeler found by Billy Smith some years ago, is going nne- ly this season, and is winning his every game. He led the league last season. as is remembered. He is the mainstay of the Atlanta team and his good left wing will materially aid the Crackers in es- tablishing a worthy position this year.
 The fan is over prone to crltlcise. Foolish statement No. 12176s.
 In the seventh inning of the first game, when with two men on bases and two runs needed with which to tie the score, it was Ryan's time at bat The fans at the matinee in Birmingham called on Molesworth in Montgomery to send El- liot to the stick But the operator said nothing, and when the side was retired without the tying runs coming over the pot, Molesworth was criticised.
 '"rhere's where Manager Molesworth showed himself dub some of them were heard to say. Ryan has got but one hit this season. and Elliot might have saved the day.
 And much more was said to the detri- ment of the manager.
 And To, there came the box score into the office of The Age-Herald. 1t shows that Molesworth did replace Ryan With Elliot And Elliot failed to deliver.

Where They Play Today
Birmingham in New Orleans. Chattanooga at Memphis. Nashville at Atlanta. Montgomery at Mobile.

Montgomery, April 26.-( (Special.)- The first game of the double header was won by the Climbers hands down, though the visitors showed a form in the last inning which caused the local aggregation to have a case of "trem- bles."
 Throughout the seven sessions the pitching of the Montgomery twirler was the great feature of the game. Up to the seventh inning not a hit had been made off him, while he had struck out six batters who faced him, allow ing not a single base on balls.
 Daley, first man up in the first in- ming, singled to center field went to second on a sacrifice, and scored when Miller ripped out double. In the third inning Whiteman, first man up, singled 10 left field, was sacrificed to second base by Burnett and went to third when Newton fumbled Miller's drive. In re- covering, Newton threw to Ryan to keep Whiteman at third, Ryan imme- diately returning the throw to Ma~- can to retire Miller This Marcan did after tumble, but Whiteman scored In the melee.
 In the fourth inning Greminge walked and went to second when Me Gilvray fumbled Phillips drive. Pope sacrificed both runners and Greminger scored when Whitey Guese sent slow one to Newton.
 In the sixth inning Phillips flashed out a two-bagger and tallied when Guese drove another slow one to New ton
 The seventh inning started the pyro- technics for the Barons when with two men down McGilyray hit safe to sec ond base and went to third on New tons two-bagger 10 left field. Mcbride singled to right field. scoring McGil- vray Emory hit past third base, scor- ing Newton. Elliott was sent in tc bat for Ryan, but he went out on a long fly to Whiteman.
 The Second Game
 High-class fielding by the locals, in- vincible box work at the hands of pr. Forrest Thomas and fearful slugging by Miller made the last game of the double header a tragedy for the Coal Barons. Fleharty was batted out of the box and was relieved by McTigue in the sixth inning, Miller touching him for home run in the fifth. Bir- mingham made a lot of bad plays and put up a ragged fielding contest throughout.
 The first run by Montgomery was in the second when, with two down Greminger singled over second and scored when Phillips landed for a triple back of the clubhouse. In the fourth Miller hit for two bags to right. Os- teen bunted down the third-base line and Emory let it roll looking for a foul but it went fair. Greminger hit to center, and both runners. who had been stepped up on a passed ball, ca me home. Two more were chalked up in the fifth. Whiteman was safe on a bum play by Emory at third. Miller then hit for a home run back of the club house, netting two more tallies, the total being five for the game.
 The Birmingham players were clear 1y outclassed in the two games this afternoon. They could not hit when hits were needed and the ball look ed

Moley Tells . Story

Molesworth would not be taken for a story teller, but he is a good one. Sit ting with Greminger in the office of Pres dent Ed Joseph Monday, the failure of Juul to put them over on Saturday was taken up. Greminger said he had a sore arm. One trouble with his delivery was that while the ball would come down in the orthodox way, he had no force to it and it would fail to break at the plate
 That reminds me of the fellow who went to the plate and let the pitcher throw him two strikes. and then three,' said Moley. |" What the h. did you mean by letting him strike you out that way? asked the manager when the bat ter went back to the bench. Why, that 1 last ball he threw me was an out curve, and the alarmed think failed to break he said His reply was good enough to save | him a roast.'
