thought Pratt, and he lined the
ball down to Rosie, who had too
much cheese, and the ball went
through him to the country and
the man trotted home with q tally.
The boys then rallied and put the
side out in one, two, three order.
Bowdle in their half of the sec
end batted s'more at Zieder and
danced around the diamond until
they had piled up four runs before
Zieder could get his feet together.
Then there was nothing stirring
until the fifth when Bowdle got
s'more runs and they thought they
had the game in their knapsack,
but Mobridge went to bat in their
half Of that inning with blood in
their eyes and tied the score and
in the sixth Bowdle got another
and held the lead until the seventh,
when Mobridge tied it again, but
Bowdle bound to be in the lead,
went one ahead and held it until
the ninth. At this time the
Boosters became wild rootecs and
came down out of the grand stand
and charged up and down the side
lines like a bunch of bowling
wolves. The ladies chased the
ball players off their bench and
stood upon it and waved flags and
yellel taunts at the Bowdle hire
ling who laid one over the pan to
Zieder, the first man at bat in the
last round, and he slept on it for
three bags but was caught going
home on what he thought was q
blocked ball. The rooters still
wild, and Truax bound to win,
leaned against the ball for his
third hit of the game and went to
third, when Pratt took another
ewipe at the poor boy from Mime
apolis. Truax going to third, Pratt |
pilfered second, Burns lifted .
high foul to the first case men,
two down and two scores
needed to win, and it was all up to
Willis and things did not look
very cheerful. While Willis is
going to make some kind of a ball |
player, he is yonng yet and not |
used to a bowling lunch of fans,
and some feared it was all off, but |
the youngster stepped coolly to the
plate and the first ball over he |
whaled it past the short stop so
fast all that gentlemen could do
was to watch it 60 and with it the |
game, for Truax and Pratt were
galloping home, and nearly had
their backs caved in by the frantic
fans. Doud rolled an easy one to
the pitcher who throw him out at
first. The score stood 7 to s when
Bowdle took up the bat for the
last time with a determination to
still pound out victory Burns
picked off the first one Up and the
next one batted hot one to kosi
who picked it clean and slammed it
to Doud who muffed. Burns then
lest sight of the plate for a few
minutes and walked the next slug
ger, and things were getting inter
esting, for the Bowdle fans got
busy and made some noise. The
Casey Jones that pulled the special
was not going to be outdone and
got busy with his locomotive whis-
tie and made some noise that was
real noisy. Jimmy, the old vet,
aside from being nearly dead for a
drink, was cool and set his foot in
the box and slipped bender over
which the batter raised about
mile over Rosie's head. Rosie,
wanting to get two instead of one
dropped the ball, for the batter
was out on an infeld hit, but the
base runners forgot it and ran
their heads off and were caught in
a fast double play, Rosie to Morri-
son to Truax, where the most in

seen in many day ended, and the
