Newspaper Page TextFRIDAY, JUNE z 5. J. PLUVIUS STOPPED GAME; A DOUBLE-HEADER FRIDAY Shower just Large Enough to Wet Warren Park 'Held up Hostilities in Fifth Inning. Neither Team Had Scored. In the beginning o£ the fifth in ning of Thursday’s game between Chattanooga and Augusta, Jupiter Pluvius uncorked a shower about the size of a horse blanket, and as a >. suit of his interference a double-head er is now in progress at Warren Park. It didn’t rain anywhere eise in town, so far as can be learned. There was a thin mist on Broad street, lasting for jus; a brief moment, but it didn’t amount to anything, and the rest of town was dry. save Warren Park. It rained pitch-forks down there for about half an hour, and when the downpour ceased the diamond looked like au artificial lake. Neither team had scored. Although a little wild, George Pierce was work ing his way down the line to good ef fect, only one hitter having found him safely in four innings, that gent be ing Buttermilk Meek, the beef trust catcher, who worked off 20 pounds of paunch in four innings by the exer tion of chasing three foul flies. Two of those he caught. Handsome Hoot Mon McKenzie, on the other hand, was likewise, also, by the same token, in similar condi tion. Hohnhorst and McMahon were the only two hitters of the local band who solved him before the rain set in. Red’s bmgle netted three bases, but coming with two down and the bases lonesome it didn’t alter the appearance of the score board. nie first game Friday afternoon will be called at 3 o’clock, and the second as soon as the first is finished, plus an interval for rest. Dobbs states that he’ll work Ginger Clark in the first game. Ginger pitch ed here In the last series and lost, by the score of 3 to 1.
