DAKOTA, THURSDAY,
tory during the entire tournament,
and they secured it by close score.
The Indians were getting scores in
every inning at the last, and 1t looked
like Pollock's salarled team was TO
lose every game. A Fort Yates player
stole third in the ninth aud was safe,
but overran the base and was touched
out. Had he held his base the game
would probably have been tie at the
end Of the ninth. The score follows:

Friday morning Hazelton met the
Indians and gave them their worst
drubbing, beating them by score of
eight to one, as follows:

In the afternoon Linton got in her
work. First Linton and Pollock
played, the former shutting out the
latter. Ellert was twirling for the
Reds and allowed but one hit, and his
support was errorless. One OF Lin
toms four hits was q three .bagger by
Kohl. a couple Of the runs may be
credited to the poor work of Pollock S
second baseman from Selby. Practi-
cally every time the ball was thrown to
him he let Il go clear TO center field.
The score:
I,a9,sss hlSsss 20 9 9 ! 9 I :" !" : g
Immediately after shutting out Pol
lock, Linton proceeded to do Hazel
ton, shutting them out, also, and
making twelve scores. Joss, who had
pitched magnificent ball against the
Reds in the former game, was batted,
to all corners Of the lot for total OF
fifteen hits. Ellert also pitched this
game and let the Hazeltsn Grays down
with only two hits. 1t was in this
game that bets of five to one ON a
shut-Out and ten to one on the game
we're made. Ellert did the star bat
ting of the tournament by making
four hits-a home run, a two-bagger
and two singles-in four times up.
The score by innings:

Saturday morning Hazelton and
Pollock again locked horns, and the
game turned out to be another joke.
Hazelton made twelve scores in one
inning, and most Of them were re-
ceived by errors. In this game one
Hazeltonite who struck out secured
score on errors, the ball being dropped
by the drst basamen. This was Pol
locks last game. Although they had
hired some fast men such as Jimmy
Ruzitska, Of Wishek, and Eddie King
man, Of Selby, it was proven conclu-
sively that ball-players, no matter
how good individually, cannot make a
winning team without practice TO-
gether. This, in addition to the fact
that a couple of the hired players
turned out to be poor material, was
enough to make the strong efforts Of
the Pollock people to turn out win
ming team in vain. This is the score:
Pollock .........i 0 0 . 0 . I-s 5 8
The first game after dinner was
another surprise for the spectators.
HaZeltOn and the Indians played, and
IL seemed that the EmmOns county
team had the game won until the
ninth inning, when home run tied
the score, and before it was over the
Dacotahs were two to thegood. There
was considerable betting on this game,
and, as result, the Dacotah sympa
tllizers were better fixed financially
after the game than before. Here is
the score:

At the close of the Hazelton- Daco-
tab game the last contest OF the series
was begun. The opposing teams were
the Dacotah Indians and the Linton
Reds. This result was OF great i'm
portance to both teams aud interest
was intense. The Indians had already
beaten Linton, and had they done so
again the two teams would have been
tied for first place. Linton took the
lead from the first, and at the end OF
the seventh inning, when the game
was called ON account. of rain, the
Lintonites had turned tables on the
Indian boys shutting them out as
they had done to the Beaver Valley
aggregation before. Flanagan was on
the rubber for the Linton Reds and
pitched star game. He allowed but
three scattered hits, and his support
was errOrless. The score:
(seven innings) "
