what Is an Earned Run.

What is an earned run9 This question. which
has racked the brains Of the baseball scorers
and reporters from the Bay of Fundy to the
Golden Gate, and which has caused endless
strife and the severance of numerous ties of
Friendship. yet remains unsettled. But the
chances that the vexed problem will at last
be solved, and in q judicial way. too. in the
Courts OF Philadelphia Sometime ago what
was known the Base ball Scorers Association
was formed In this city. 1t was intended to be
q fraternal organization of rhe men who mold
the reputation of baseball play ers and get big
salaries for alleged stars, and who dish up the
scores for the edifcation of the thousands who
dreds of points TO be determined by the associa-
ton, and the PROCEEDINGS of the meeting were
about az harmonious gathering OF cats sus-
pended over a c.othes-line with their tails tied
together. Every member was surprised at the
knowledge displayed by his neighbor, and early
in the proceedings every body began to suspect
that he knew bus very little when his standard
was measured by his neighbours.
Matters went along smoothly until some one
fred bomhshell into the meeting 10 the form
of the question What is earned run2" In
an instant every man was upon his feet. In five
minutes some one locked the door Of the meet
ing-room. and each member of the association
stood armed with broken chair legs, ink bottles,
cuspidores and broomsticks, means of assist
ing in the enforcement of his views upon his
antagonist. An adjournment was had. and in a
few days the Public Ledger poured ponderous
broadside into the ranks OF the organization to
show what il knew. This was followed by the
Sporting Life, the feathers OF which had been
RULED and rided shot was directed against Hez-
ekiah Niles. of the Evening Bullstin. MIR. Niles's
feelings were hurt. and he has invoked the aid
of the courts to call the editor of the Sporting
Life 20 order. Mr. Niles has entered suit
against Editor Richter for libel. aud he thinks
60, 000 damages and judicial decision of what
earned run is, will make him happy for life.
Baseball men all over the country will await
the result Of this suit with interest IL the de-
cision shall not, be satisfactory the case will be
