Atlanta, June s.--(Speeial.)-If we nave
ronveyed an intimation of the story of to-

was rotten to the core let us forget IT,
Rudderham is getting old, and even were
he as young and spry as on other oc-
casons, a bad day is apt to come to
every one of US. And II he is little
sore that the management of the Biz
ningham club was offered him some
months ago, and on his acceptance, was
not delivered, such soreness is natural.
The game was very close, and could
not have been decided without causing a
howl from some fans, whether Birming-
ham or Atlanta.

making a very game fight. Fleharty was
In fine form, too. but did not equal the
work of the sidewheeler in the Cracker
colors.
Atlanta won the game by a bit of smart
work on a couple of occasions, which
smart work escaped the notice of poor
old Rudderham. Jordan scored the run
which won by leaving third before Nc
Bride captured Moran's sacrifice fly. He
was ahead of the throw to the plate by
about one step. and he started two steps
in advance of the time he should have
started. The eighth inning was opened by
Jordan with clean single to center. Sid
Smith then stepped over the plate and re-
eeived one of Flehartys slow curves on
the shoulder. The Barons protested at the
resurrection of an old trick, made IA
nous by George Winters and Carlos
Smith, but to no avail. This advanced
Jordan to the keystone and he went to
third on an infeld out. He scored as ex-
planned above
