one of the best of the season. The town
boys played unusually well and Eben Mil
Ter OF Brooks Was iii the box. For seven
innings it was practicallya contest between
the pitchers and not a score was made.
Man after man came to the box and after
watching the ball sail by him in all sorts of
curves would retire in favor of the next one
on the list In the eighth inning a CaStine
man made run and the spectators be-
gan 10 1eel the strain OF the moment The
hum of conversation ceased and the da-
mOnd was watched in silence. At the be-
ginning of the ninth inning the Searsports
were in the field and Miller in his usual
skillful way struck out his three men and
the audience seemed to feel some what
cheered up, although odds were still in ia
vor OF the visitors. But when the home
nine went to the box Miller and Henry
Trip made runs in quick succession and
the game was Searsport'S with a score of
to l. The Searsport nine wish to extend
