however, seemed a shade stronger diiu

In the following round the Kaws forg-
ed ahead and all due to Blaine Duroln
This handsome little left handef mas
been known to clout the ball with great
success but this time up he dubbed II
10 death. It was the cleanlteSt three
bagger seen here in many a day--a long
drive to right center which bounded on
the fence. For a moment IL Seelneu
that il had gone over, then the white
grass and the fielder hurry it in. Dur
hin was held up at third and Rickert
walked. The seesaw steal was Jus.
ready to break into the game when
king hit fast down to Gagnier VINO
was forced TO make the peg to first
while Durbin sifted across the pan.
Even in Ninth.
The game was due to stop right there,
3 to .. BIT Paul 10. first up in the
ninth walIoped out a twobagger which
rolled to the fence Moral support from
the stands, if it is any good at all
would have saved Durbin completely on
this occasion. He struck out Mccormick
and Thomas few out to King. Dundon
proceeded to follow with a disturbing
scratch hit which banged into Durbin' s
hand and off again as he reached high
for It. Edmiston almost got it but
DVelTan and no throw was made as
Cobb was already brushing his uni
form at the bench.
With the scores tied up again and
Rickert having fits in left field Dur
bin settled to some mighty fine twiri-
ing and Hagcrman tightened up, too,
while the players threw out a reserve
supply of pepper and Jumps Nick ee
1necame so excited he called balls and
strikes in a voice like a thunderstorm.
In the tenth and eleventh it was one,
two, three for both clubs. In the twelfth
both teams got Il man as far as third
and failed to get him across the rub
Der. For Lincoln Thomas singled and
WAS sacrificed by Dundon. He stole third
on the strikeout of Cockman but Nc
C7raw went out through Emory and
there was TO score. For Topeka. Chap
man slashed out a three base hit when
two were gone. Edmiston was left in
his batting place in the hope he would
connect but he whitfield.
Gagnier got G hit for the Lopes j.,
the thirteenth but there was no assist
ance from his club. Durbin had them
on his hip.
Durbin Settled It.
Danny Dreamer gets credit for the
winning rrn as he does for tying the
score up in the first place. Krepps
