Sensational Fielding

The fielding was great and both teams were in the game with vengeance until the curtain was rung down in the ninth. Johnston saved the game for the Barons in the second inning when he went into deep left center and took down a drive from Dunn's bat, which was good for a Walsh made a good stop and throw in the third, Paulet helping his wide throw, with swell catch at first. Starr made a pretty play on McBride's hit, but he had the ball beat out. It was hard hit liner which hit the ground just over second. Starr fielded the ball, but too late to get Mcbride at first, Almeida scoring from third.

After two wide ones, and Fisher, who followed had thrown his bat aside in disgust McDuff bingled to center. Hannas wild peg which passed Gutierrez, allowed three men to count.
 Selma made the first run in the second. Mastering hit to left for two bases and counted on a wild pitch. In the seventh another score was codnted. Sparks hit to left, went to third on a passed ball and counted on Nollys drive to right. All through the game Hill evaded Chastant.
 After Herman was out in the eighth, Chastant faced the model star pitcher. Two strikes were registered when Hill attempted to slip a splitter across the pan. Chastant caught it. It went high and Wasem made a desperate effort to knock it inside the enclosure. but his effort was vain as the ball cleared his init and sailed over the fence.

Selma, June 1s-(Special.) )--Anniston won from Selma this afternoon by the score of to 3. The game was devoid of features outside three fast double plays and two neat catches by Nelson and tia work of Hartley at second. Nelson played a brilliant fielding game, but timely hit by him in the eighth would have given the game to Selma. Instead he hit to McDun, who made a sensational stab at his high fly and with the bases full Sell ma was retired.
 The loss of the game for Selma can be attributed to Nolly's charitableness and Hannas bad peg upon which three runs were counted in the fifth. Even at that Selma would have tied the score but for a rank decision by Umpire Jenkins on the bases at first in the eighth.
