Deaver, manager-twirler-fie er-slugger and all around ball tosse, of the Pine Knots, won yesterday game from the Brinkley tail ender. when he rapped out a clean single to left 8field ill the last half of the ff1f inning and sent Gfroerer, Berry and Ware home in a gallop. Up to the time Deaver made the effective drive the 9game was anybody's, for the brlnKley lads took on a batting rally m the 1lrst half of that inning and by scoring two men, tied the three sceEe of the Pine Bluflians, who got &early in the lead.
 When Deaver connected with tbe ball the visitors lost heart and lost the game at the same time. When the fun ended the score stood g to 3 in Pine Bluffs favor. It was the third straight from Dawkins men and the Poplar Bluff successors left the cit? last night with heavy hearts and less per centage than on Monday, when they arrived here.
