Travellers.
 Elberfeld's Travellers demonstrated in no way the reason for their being occupants of seventh place in the league standing. In fact, the Little Rock aggregation played about the best ball of any team appearing at Redwood Park this season.
 The Travellers hit hard and timely collecting ten safeties off Coffindaffer. Two of these, by Frierson and Miller, were home runs, one going over and one through a breach in the right field walls. Each of these four-bag clouts came at time when there was a runner on bases.
 Peters got the only real hit made by the Barons. He hit sharply to center, and just made second before the ball reached the keystone. He was credited with double, Croll and Meeks each made a single.
 GAME TYPICAL OF SPORT
 Yesterdays game had a little bit of everything registered as baseball in 1t. Singles, extra base hits, stolen bases, sacrifice hits wild pitches, passed balls, errors, batters struck by pitchers, were some of the variety. The game was the typical of the national pastime staged nere III some tune.
 A near tragedy was enacted in the game. Brottem was at bat in the eighth. Baron Twirler Coffindaffar sent rather wild one to plate and the ball landed solidly against the head of Brottem. The Little Rock player went down for the count, and 1t was two or three minutes before he re- vived enough to stagger to his feet. He took his base, eventually, however.
 The Barons' part in yesterday s game was meager to say the least. Lit tie Rock and Yellowhorse were the whole show.
 SCORE IN FOURTH
 Except for two walks in the first three innings no Baron cached first base. In the fourth, however, with the score four to nothing against them, the local players put across one of their runs. Bernsen and Ellis grounded and flied out, respectively. Griffith was safe when McGinpis pulled Wano off the bag with his throw of the Baron's Rrourdar. Meeks singled through sec ond base, advancing Griffith to sec ond. Brottem failed to mold one Of YeIowstoncs pitches. and Griffith took third on the passed ball. Croll singled through hird, scoring Griffith, Peters grounded out, McGinnis to Wano.
 The other Baron tally came in the seventh Peters doubled to center. and took third on Coffindaffers infield out Stewart sent a sacrifice fly to left, and Peters scored. Stevenson struck out.
 The Travellers scored in four of the nine innings on punched hits, sacri- fees and free bases. Cofindaffer could do nothing with the Little Rock bats men, and eight of the nine tallies off hin, were earned
 BREAKS WITH TRAVELLERS
 It must be said however, that every break of the game was with Yellow horse. His team played in a style which comes to team only once in a season. The Barons hit hard and often. but every time local con- nected with the ball it happened that there was a Traveller waiting in the eX- act spot to field the ball. A glance over the put-out column of the box score will show the truth of this. The put-outs are we'll scattered over the lineup.
 Although not what one could call bad, the umpiring might have favored Birmingham a little more. Umpires williams and Pfenninger gave every close decision to Little Rock, except in one case, when Peters slid in home
