The five-Tun lead put dampner on i {he spirits of the Colts and they ap peared bit disheartened but were fighting gnmely for the rest Of the way, but the play seemed io lack life and evidenced n semi.boIe lessuess. Of course after Big Bill's showing the fans were just saying to each other, "lt he had only pitched the whole game things might have been different"
 Leddy was on the receiving end for the whole nine innings and with the exception of the fatal second was in the points every minJte and added couple of snieties to the batting record
 In the iir,l only three batters faced N ood Putnam started out strong when Chafne Fallon, ~ho has become locul faxurite, nit to deep center and was advanced on Leddy's hit to right. L. HeurenX, the old reliable, brought him over,
 The ,hig blowout, which punetured Putnam s chance $, came lsom Il clear sky in the second Rooitaiile made 4 hard try Tor Geruaine's fly but tuggted 1t. Ledds then let Belairs third strike roll by, and by the time he had recovered il Belair was on third and Germaine hnd registered. Then four consecutive hits resulted in quartet of runs and when the inning closed with fafts to Q 1t looked pretty eef- tain what the outcome would be.
 Bill started the third for Putnam and only three men faced him. Putnam scored in the fourth. Counoyer got on by scratch single to short and Robitaille brought him over with a timely single.
 In the sixth a couple Of singles in succession gave the visitors their sixth run and in the eighth wild throw, two saielies and an error let in their seventh and last score.
 II. k K was fighting 10 close up The gap In the ninth they worked hard for last minute victory and for a while their chances looked bright. Gallagher hit to left and MaeComack was given pass fallon flied out, but t.eddy connected safely scoring Gallagher. Belalr obAgingly let Paige $ grounder roll by, on which MacCor- mack scored. The crowd was on ils lees yelling itself to parched and strained throats aud it looked as if NoTmanda was momentarily weaken ing, lie frightened up, however, and Cournoyef was an easy out, when he hil to lhe pitching box. and the game was over.
 Both Fallon and Gallagher kept themselves in the spotlight by some clever work in the ieatheld, while Fletcher, who was on the initial sack for the visitors, shone as their particu. lar star.
 IL was certainly hard game to lose but it seemed from the side lines that 1 ginger was lacking, especially after | the disastrous second. They might be nkened to Davy's Seotchmau who couldn | play ball until he got warm and could not get warm till he played ball.

The evidence was there be- yond a reasonable donbt that lack of ability to swat the horsehide when hits meant runs was what caused the down fail Of Billy Devine's aggregation of base ball artists The local team were able to pay trife over 50 per cent when the end ot the ninth inning ar rived, the score being Tattvllie [, II. * K, 1.

While Putnam was sIruggl- ing with the TatEyilIe gunner's broad sides ihe team from near Norwich was laying lhem down where they would do the most good especially in one in. ming hen Wood was doing the honors for the ocaIs.
 Wood started for Putnam but lasted but two brief Innings. In the second four consecutive hits, coupled with s third stfike ihal l.eddS failed to cap ture, and which rolled nearly to the

This was the spot where the .visitors did their execution and sent Putnam seurryiug back To their last reserve trenches from which they made few unsuccessful attempts lo recover the lost ground. After this disastrous assault Taftvile's big guns were silenced for the reason that the old war lhorse, Big Bill, was brought into action and his shots were so ef. fective that the visitors were eating out of his hand during the rest of the battle.
