Gardiner Beats Watervile
& Fairfield II TO Z.
Weak Hitting and Too Many
Errors on the latteT'S Part.
halIoWen VIII Try Conclusions with A.
gusta Today Al Augusta.

watervilie, Me-, July 16.-(SpeciaD.-
The Twins suffered an ignominous de-
feat at the hands of Gardiner on Alum
nj field Monday afternoon by score OF
somewhat lax, owing for the most part
to Door work in the box. Whitaker,
waterville boy, strengthened the hopes
of the Waterville fans to no small ex
tent when it became known that he
was to take the chief responsibility of
winning or losing the game. The dis
appointment was propOrtionately great.
however, when in the sixth inning 1t
became evident that he could no longer
be retained, and Howard was substitu-
ted. The confidence in the Waterville
pitcher could not be said to be fully
warranted, as it was his first game
since the first Of last April. when while
playing ball in the South he became
disabled and has since retired almost
wholly from athletics.
The game was fairly fast until the
first half of the fifth inning. The crash
came when Tetreault touched Whittak-
er for a two-base hit with Pinkerton
out and Dwinal on first on an attempt
ed out Dryer singled and Tetreault
scored Whitaker hit Reilly. Austin
singled and Dwinal scored. While
Vaughn was striking. Farwell threw
wild and Reilly scored. In the follow
ing inning two bases on balls and an
out scored Moore after her had made a
pretty single.
In the seventh a base on balls to
Austin, hits to Vaughn. Bowman and
Moore and steals by the latter two net
ted three runs. Gardeners run in the
ninth was scored on two clean singles
Dwinal pitched a clean. consistent
steady game and the defeat of the
home team may be attributed more t.
the contrast in the pitching than in any
defect Of the work of the team in gen
eral.
