Another new wrinkle. whereby he hopes 20

BY Arson 1t Is to constantly call the attention

bAtters than if left entirely alone.
A rather queer thing happened at Rochester,
May 10, in the Buffalo, Rochester game. Both
balls had been battsd over the fence aud out OF
sight Umpire Sullivan called for q new ball,
which he had . right to do, but before the new
ball was in play the old one was returned TO the
grounds. but Sullivan made them use the new
one. Thersupon Pitcher Barr deliberately
pitched the new one oyer the grand stand and
then got the old one. The Buffalos won, how
ever.
Glasscock certainly gets away with a trick
better than any man in the profession. In the
second inning McGeachy made . hard drive 10
right and Brown attempted to throw him out at
first base, but the ball bounded by Morrill, and
rolled toward the home plate. McGeachy had
overrun first and it Was impossible for him TO
turn around in time to take advantage of the
wild throw. Glasscock, however. who was in
the coaching box, started for first base at full
speed. aud Kelly picked up the ball and threw
1t 10 first with all his might. Nothing came of
the play a. the throw was accurate. hut had 1t
been wild McGeachy would have been advanced
u base or two.

That the game at Gloucester was q bare

when the General Conference met there were
some old fogiss who raised the point that they
could not be allowed to take part in the proceed
