KNOCKS BLANSIT FROM BOX
Dawson Wins Last Game of Series
Harper Hits Long Home Run.

MONTEZUMA, June 16.-Having
played two tie games Dawson and
Montezuma locked horns here this
| afternoon. both anxious to win the
deciding game. Manager Mckenzie
, picked his best bet, Blansit, to twirl
| for the locals, while the visitors sent
the reliable Baby Wilder to the
mound. The weather was threaten
| ing, and the first five innings were
played in the rain, consequently the
game was a little more rocky than IL
would have been otherwise.
The visitors had a large following
of home rooters to pull for them, and
they went after the last gene with a
vim, thereby tieing the count with
the locals for this year.
| Mr.. Blansit went well in the first
| stanza. but in the second Thrasher
L.. got life on an error. He was sent
TO second by Mitternicht and scored
on a single by Williams. Then Har-
per walked to the plate and hit the
| first ball thrown over the negro
houses in right field for a complete
circuit. 1t was some swat and Ban
sit began to limp and look weak.
Dawson got three hits and two
runs in the third, and Manager NC
Kenzie sent Laricy to relieve Blan-
sit. He shut out the visitors and
Richards went to the mound in the
fourth. He was soon relieved by
Dumas, who pitched good ball.
The locals touched Wilder for nine
safeties, but by keeping them scat
tered they could get but four runs
The visitors got four two-baggers,
one three-bagger, one home run and
| five singles.
