 Atlanta, June Especial. 1.-The customers at the ball park yesterday afternoon saw IA innings of mixed good, bad and indifferent baseball in one of the longest games that has been seen on the local lot for somt time. There were eight and one-half innings of baseball that resembled anything but a professional ball game, but in their half of the ninth inning the locals suddenly came to life, scored four runs and tied up q ball game that looked to be gone be- yond hope of recall and then battled the Birmingham Barons IA innings to to z tie.
 The game was called after the completion of the fourteenth much to the Joy of the fans whose thoughts were recalled from visions of cold dinners and waiting families by a threat on the part of one or the other aggregatous walking away with the game However, this eventuality did not take place and when Umpire Jorda raised his voice calling the game there was mad rush for the exits
 Teams Fight
 More than one collar was wilted and more than one voice was cracked after the vocal and physical efforts on the part of the spectators who en- abled the Crackers to put over the tyfng runs and Carlton Molesworth. who occupied his usual position on the end of the Barons' bench threat ened his team with all sorts of vio- fence from mayhem to murder for all lowing the Crackers to snatch what he considered his ball game out of the win column. And fight, if any of the Barons figured that both teams were not fighting to a finish they are making bad guess, because both teams were scrapping tooth and toe nail for that winning run and it looked several times as if the game was gone or won depending on the affiliations and hopes of the, fan.
 Errors Abundant
 It is entirely possible that the Crackers amassed enough errors in this one game to last them for the rest of the season Lefty James, who was on the hill for the locals, pitched a real ball game, but the Cracker in ficlders and outfielders proceeded to kick chance after chance in the most heartbreaking manner, and allowed runs to score that should have never entered this column at all. The err TOT jinx was no respector of persons nor of teams and some mighty ex- pensive errors were chalked up against the visitors as well as the locals. And both organizations seemed to pick opportune times for their boots so that the other team would be able to score. It was a mighty ragged ball game for eight and one half innings, but from this period on the most rabid adherent of either team will have to admit that there was five innings of real Jamb up baseball.
 Scoring Starts Early
 The scoring in this game started early, the Crackers getting two coun- ters in the opening frame. At this point Lefty James settled down to pitch a real game. He retired the side in order in the first frame. strik-
