The game abounded In sensational plays and a good many errors by the locals, to all of which was -added some of th most terrific batting- the Hornets hav ever exhibited. Brennen's work on second was after the most Improved fashion, that younif gentleman figuring In four double plays. He took down a liner In the fourth from Cooper's bat with a single hand, doubling on a runner At second. It was Kulenwlder's first off day since he joined the Hornets and bo- tan making the wonderful record h has attached to himself. He was rent himself by any means. At times he was effective, but In pinches he wont to nieces. After !u. with the asslMtance of others, had allowed th score to become tied In the eighth Inning.

Rainwater was a regular cloudburst In that eighth verse. Will somebody please head Spartan burg till we can get to 'em? Anderson certainly made a heavy bid for that victory in the eighth In ning. Brennen shone mightily around that second base yesterday. His work sparkled. That luck which has tackled Green ville Is a tierce article. -Four straight games lost by a score of one. Came awful near being a swatfest. By the. way. Industrial News, when does severe hitting become a swat fest? Manager Collins showed his wisdom when he retired Kulenwlder In the eight) and sent the Georgia southpaw to the pit. The luck which Greenville Is having Is near akin to that which has linger ed around and hovered over Charlotte all the sea-son. - This Is the day for the new man to report, if there be anything In the ru mors which have been running loose for several days. It was the first time that Fulenwl der could not get his- arm- to bring him another victory. He certainly has no kick coming. That Winston ball ground Is fierce. A good single to right field on the lo cal grounds is over the fence and a home run there. When Oakley gets tired playing hall, he might go on the stage and show the Inhabitants how to twist a human body into all sorts of shapes. The question as towho Is golng'to own the rag has not yet been settled. If Charlotte would -win about 30 more games, she might have a show. The sporting writer of The Green ville News some days ago Instituted a column of "stings" ih Dutch Vernacu lar. You can't understand him at all now. , t w' Ashcnhark'e record hers someear ago came near ruining this town on baseball. That partially accounts for the fact that It Is hard to stay in the cellar. ,-' "I like that kind of a game mighty , r-weu Tfter It s over, but 1 will Just be f, plagued (?) If I like If while its go ing on," Is ths language revised of an old rooter. That downward grsde must be looming up pretty long to Tom mle Stotich by this time. He went uphill during ai: of the first part of. the season. - .. . . - , . A 'prophecier -gives the pe'nnant either, to Spartanburg or Winston, forces Charlotte up to second or third place and Greensboro down to the bottom. , . - - Thi game this afternoon start at !:20 o'clock in order to allow Captain Rowland's people at Statesvllle who . WILLIAM FIRTH, PRESk ;U- ;.;.. ':;::. : 3 AMERICAN V20ISTENING J. S, COTHRAN, 8? are coming on an excursion to wltness- the transaction. -,, , , . Spartanburg is bound to? drop at least two more 'when she plays the Hof nel If will be an tfnunuai thing If Charlotte does not take a couple out of -the next three. " . , Somebody said there were too many girls here yesterday from Monroe to see Fulenwlder-pltch. Let's see what the Statesvllle crowd : will do toward influencing Sherrlll to-day. The scries which end this week In the circuit are going to be hard fought all around. Winston tackles Green ville, Spartanburg plays Greensboro and Charlotte goes after Anderson. According to geometric reasoning. Greenville and Charlotte will meet be fore these proceedings are over, pro vided the teams keep moving in the same direction toward which they now tend. It . . . I .4 V, a n . . V, Inn.l l,i. 11 JV Vl'UlU it. r- 3 . nn, IIIU, 11V.U late expressions of the Electricians loT a vocal spectrum when Bed fern was Jerked on them, one of these resound ing, echoing sighs would hate been the result. Bob Carter Is a good ball player. but he shows exceedingly poor taste In picking the best pitcher on the lo cal staff when he takes one from the assortment who has not won a game for Charlotte yet. Hohnhorst, the man who carried about with him a name suggestive of a forked Inhabitant of the sea, has been succeeded by Mr. Rainwater, at the first sucker's place on the Ander son team. Think of Itt Why would old Father Luck fly down and make Hlnton's throw of the ball from centre hit a bat tn front of The South Carolina League closes the last day of this month, and Man ager Caldwell, of the Chester team, which looks like the winner at this distance, might be prevailed upon to loan us some of his heavy hitters. Medea ry, who by many has' been considered one of the "best. If. Indeed, not the best pitcher of Winston, has been bought by Charlotte and is count ed upon to be here to-day. He held the OCals to two hits the last timo n pcrforrnp(j on tne ,ocal diamond Just a word to the . grandstand: There was a slight whispering of dis content yesterday when Manager Col lins took Fulenwlder out of the box which threatened to break Into some what of a storm. It was the wise thing to do without a doubt. Let the team be managed by the manager. There la still another thing: on sev eral occasions voices lh the grand stand have called to players to take certain balls. This dutjr belongs ta the held captain and not to the grand stand. The Gadsden (Ala.) Journal says: "B. L. Noojin, who graduated this year from the Alabama State Unlver elty. has been added to the faculty of the Seventh District School in the de partment of science- Mr. NooJIn is the son of J. T. Noojin, of this city, and is one of the brightest and most accomplished young men of the city. His many friends here will congratu late him on the position which he has secured and the honor which has been paid him by the district school." For the first time since this league openefl every team In the Carolina As sociation .Changed positions In the av erage columns yesterday. Some think a record has been broken in baseball, and this certainly Is true so far as the recollection of many old sports about town goes. In view of the f.ict that-) the sporting editor of The Industrial News at Greensboro declares that a Charlotte pitcher walked McKevitt several times on one occasion to keep that manager from swelling his bat ting average, the question might be referred to him.
