The umpire suflers at the hands of both sides, The po wmpire is ont on tho ball ground, Pherc is a linp in his gait and | he earries a cane, 1oold vet, and od o right lively game before he was wounded. The ball struck him on the knee cap, and_when he was diseharged from the hospital he was placed on the retived list, What are they doing now The man at the bat made three strikes, nd the cateher has thrown the ball to irst base. 1s the m 1 out? Some suy he 18 and some say he isn't. What does the umpire s He has not had achance to say any- thing yet on account of the uproar. Why do the two nines gather so closely around the umpirer He ought to have a little fresh air, They are going to bulldoze him Has he rendered a decision yet? Yes, he has prononnced the man out. Who struck the umpire? The short ston. Who is that man kicking the umpire on his game leg? That is the man whom he declared out. It is a shame to kick, strike and abuse a lame man, True, but look at the third baseman, who is ereepingup behind him with a club in his hand. What is he going to do? He finds that it is necessary to kill the umpire to stitle further discussion. Has he struck him yet? No, he has not hit him on the back of s head, bed se the umpire has just re- sion. Yes, henow says the man is not out. Who fired that shot? The left fielder of the other club, Who is he shooting at? m. Why, they have killed the wmpire for going back on his first judgment! Yes, but what 1s the difference? He would have been killed auyway by the club on the other side. It'is six to one and half a dozen to the other, and an um- pire might as well die for an old sheep as a lamb.
