BLANCHARD's NO HIT GAME.

Tommy Blanchard's name should be added to the baseball hall of fame, after his performance of Sat- urday afternoon, when he held tl1e heavy hitting Larkspurs of Hartford, to no-hit game, and sent back to the bench 12 of the visitors by the strikeout route. Blanchard, has been the nlafnstay of the Annex team for several years. A consistent winner when in the box, his latest achieve ment is one that will stand by him for some time to come. During the game the visitors succeeded in driy- ing the little white pellet to the outer garden but once, and this was gobbl- cd up by the guardian of the pasture in which 1t made it's way. Schneider of the winners featured at the bat with three healthy swats. The score:
