There was no game scheduled for the Augusta club of tbe South Atlan tic League yesterday and Manager Brouthers’ bunch spent the afternoon in a little exhibition game down in the ‘‘Oldest City,” St. Augustine. Following is an account received from “down there”: St. Augustine. Fla. —Augusta’s new college twirler, Lee Stone, walked out onto the diamond at the beginning of the game yesterday afternoon and be fore the first ball was pitched fore told that he would win his game. He gave as his reason that he was now in the best of form and that from now until the end of the season that he would make things hum. Stone demonstrated to the locals that his talk was not mere "kidding” but was the real thing, as he gave up but two hits during the game. St. Augustine’s nine is not what can be called a professional club, but it is so near that it could possibly be called one. The locals made a bunch of errors and the visitors took ad vantage; this is the main reason for the high score. Davies for the local nine also pitched good game hut he could not hold the hits down, the visitors get ting eight and making all of them count. The following is the score by in nings: Score; R. H. E.
