Baseball -An interesting gauze of baseball was played Friday afternoon at the recreation grounds between the Bensall Indians and the Exet t• nine the score being 8 to 2 favor of Exe- ter. Tho aborigines have been put- ting up a good article of frail is the onion town and they. put up a good game here, and bad the pitcher. cat- cher and first baseman reeeived any kind of support the result would have been different. For the first three innings the locals were unable to negotiate any runs and only Baw- den and Hoskin were able to connect with the sphere. The Indians secur- ed one run in tbe first innings but from then till the eighth, they Stere only able to secure three hits off lJatvdeu, and those tame in separate innings, so slid not figure in any run getting. In the eighth they got an- other run, owing ,to a wild pitch. .el the fourth the locals got three ,runs but for the next three in- nings I3eeswax the pitcher for the Indians put 'cm over and refused to let the locals score. In the eighth the boys in maroon got to the ilen- sall twirler and when the dust clear. ed away five runs had crossed the plate. The Indians were put out in one, two. 'three order, ending one of the most interesting games fitlayed here for some time. The home team was strengthened by tbe addition of some of the old time players. Sandy 13awden, Ike Bissett and "Rattler" Eacrett, each of which showed up well in the game. Bandy was there with the stick, out of four limes at bat getting three safe bingles and getting his base on a passed ball on the third strike. Beeswax fo rthe Indians pitched a nice tgame, and had the Exeter Loys guessing moat of the time. Following was the lineup and score. Exeter Indians Manns rf. 1 M.
