'Red Birds Down he Lobsters Age IT BAD DAY FOR THE GAME Wilmington Protests. Game Because it Was Not Called VTwo Hours Before Sunset Pennant Series Won. Raleigh- 2 Wilmington Lost. ret. 0 1,000 2 000 In rand something less than ankle deep the Red Birds took the second of the pennant series yesterday from the Lobsters.

Not since the days of Noah and the lark has' there been such a continuous rain performance. All summer long it has reained, rained, rained. Yesterday the sky broke and the bottom fell out. There was water everywhere. The wise ones sire figuring on a fair day today, because they argue that the clouds were drained to the limit yesterday.

Both teams went out to the park more from force of habit than anything else. Several hundred of the faithful went for a reason very much the same. It did not stop raining until 5 p. but the bleachers soou began to burden and it was decided to The two teams sloshed around in the mud, and Wilmington' kicked1 against the game being played. King Kelly looked at the crowd and sized up a guarantee, so he stuck out for a game.

Manager Cowan of Wilmington notified Umpire Mace that the game would be protested the "reason that it was not called two hours before sunset. The game was tiresome and uninteresting. This was due to the condition of the grounds, which were such, that fast paying-was not possible. After, the Lobsters had taken their half of the eighth, Capt. Allen notified Umpire Mace that he tiad enough, and the game was called.

Darkness was approaching. The Lobsters started off in the firt inning like they intended to cinch the game at the 6tart. Bunting, a couple of passes and an error brought in three tallies. The Red Birds piled up six runs in the second lining out the ball and taking advantage of errors. It was a bad day for pitchers, but Stocksdale pitched a good game.

lie was unable to control the wet at first, but settled down and the Lobsters were unable to touch him. Newman wasThit feely, yet he p'tehed a good game. The Lobsters took advantage of the wet condition of the grounds at the start and played the bunting game with success. The visitors were tapping the ball in front of the plate and the Red Bird fielders were slipping around in the mud in frantic effort to get hold of the sphere. Clayton drew a pass as a beginner.

Devlin and AHfn bunted safely by conr: tesy of the mud. With the bases full Dommell was presented with a pass and Clayton was forced home with the first run. Then Bill threw wild to third and Devlin raced in. Warren flew to righ? and Derlin tallied. The Reds looked like sure scorers in their balf of the first, after Powers had bunted and Hughes drove the ball for two bases.

With none out and the third and second sacks occupied the locals could not score. Kelly popped up a ilv. and Sorber lined a hot one to Clayton, that in a double. In 4je second spasm the Red Bids had easy sailing and they never ouit until the game had been won. Six runs were tallied.

The Birds went to the bat eleven times in this inning and the remarkable feature was that Hennager, who faced Newman twice during the inning was presented with bases on balls. Hennager started the fire works by drawing a pass, but he1 was retired pilfering second. Cro'nin received a pass likewise, and Curran followed up with a double. Bill hit to Clayton who let the ball get away and two runs tal lied. Stocksdale' bunted safely.

Tacks Allen sliding across the diamond in an effort to get the Powers fanned and on the play BiM stole third. Tacks threw wild to Warren and Bill cdmpleted the circuit. A single bv Hughes scored Stocksdale. King Kel then hit for three bases, and Hughes tallied. Kel scored on a hit by Sorber.

aSocks" stole second and advanced to third on a wild pitch. Hennager was again passed to first and -'stole second, but Cronin retired the side on a fly. The game dragged along to the eighth Inning without material advantage, both teams having men on the bases. At the conclusion of the Lobsters half of the eighth. inning Captain Allen agreed thatj the game should be called, darkness be Ing at hand.

LINEHAN PROPOSITION IS TO VOTE AGAIN ON A BOND ISSUE 20 PER CENT Aldermen Now Talking of Having an Election for the Issu-suance of $100,000 in City Bonds mber the 1st Seote And now another bond election is oi the boards There is talk of holding an election 60 days hence for the purpose of issuing $100,000 in bonds for city street improvements. An alderman said yesterday: "I have heard a number of people who oooosed the recent issue of in bonds, say that they would vote for an issue of $100,000. They say the work of improving the streets should not stop." The idea of voting again on the bonds was talked generally yesterday.

The anti-bond people do not seem to think that another election will be held. Thev think the matter of issuing bonds ha been settled for some time, and thev maintain that if another election should be held the bonds would be voted down by an even larger majority. The act of the legislature authorizing an election to determine whether the city should- issue- bo-nog for street improvements provides that the is3ue may be $100,000. It was originally decided AB.
