Early in the season he and ComislsCy hHd n wOrily duel at Gin. :"THti. and the experience so diSgusrCd O'I:''l'r's,' that he promptly r>ignCIi. much Ia President 3oung's rcliCf. think.
 The r- (: tu Gn was SwIrtwCOd- He, too, is an old Cx player. His weakness was want of C,,ursIcC. The players no sooner diScnvCrJsl this than they prncCSSlsri to make life miserable for him. and what the players didn't do the sIsrrialurS did not leave undOnc- Swartw'sSl CsIn5C frs1su the Eastern league, where last s.-l<-an hc did excellent work at umpirin2;. When iC was sent back to that circuit, he again gave satisfaction and iS now unl'irInG well.
 Then came Str;r', tlic champion s-.-int- CT. He never p!Iy,Sl a professional ssur of ball in his life. vat thCrc was I'' s1s3I found with his work ny fair minded ,-~s- pie.

 But his hC.l;th gave WY He was fDc~ quCntly ovcrCun2s with l -'t and Conll lain cti of sCvCU. pains hcnCaTl his heart My personal impression Is that Mir. Stage is n victim of OvUrtraining-
 Though u small man. MCCluadc has E.Trsat courage and never hCsitatS-s tn dCsll with loud mouthCi players as they dCSCrvC- He Is n tried man in the buSinC-sS and has sCrvCIl PrUsidCnT Young numlacr of yCslrs-
 EmsliC l. an exception tO the rule that a professional player dos not make n E;'and umpire Bob ssImc years ago was one of the hest pitchers in the American asso- citation. and Inc hasn't fUrEsut his own experience with umTips- -'Thcy IllIIlC me split the plate when pitched. and I do to them as was done ny" is his motto. ThCrrforr when Enlslic umpiNss h3sseS On balls arC likely tn br comparatively plrn- tiful. In curpCtnC=ss of dCS-iSiunS and i'm

 But in all tho qualifications which E,p to make up tho perfCCt umpiTC Tommy Lynch is king of them Of all He. tpn. is n nOnpruf,SSiOnal player yis srlCOess was instantaneous frum ih, time he ls- gan ter umpir'. lrack in the eighties He l. tho ranking umpirc of the National lCsa4-Jlc and commands mon salary fur his wssrk than any other man who works the indt- CatOr. While his judgment may u,'s Rss so Gosd all around as k EnslicS his man
 nCr Of work is mnrc suCsr'>Sful- | udCr rsO | cirCumstan will he sIsslk to 2 player nut the captain unless it lsr to give warn ing or imIs~s' a fine. But the Iu-lk which he turns upon the kicker is nun eloquent than Ia minute sPCCch- wh,n Tom my dCigns la noiiCc a players mouth
 ings long enough la give him that cold, | warning starc, the offender generally usss discretion and shuts up" like a morning glory at sunset
 Lynch makes acquaintancs-s of few hall players un ur of the field II" knows tl" principal men of the profession, but scl dom speaks to tho ''privntCs- Neither will he enter a clubs dUzsSing rsOm ar stop Ht the same hotel with n hall team l Thus hc manages to rrtain the dignity of his p,SiriOn h'Itcr than other members Oi Mir. EUunE's s;aif-
 Among the additions who have culnc along Ia i'll VncInr!Css several had Ils<tinG I existcncCs- Hartley Uf New York Was tried and prOvcSi quick failurc- Huag- land has met with plenty of trouble in his short carVr. and his profession Uf tc- | ing n champion jumper doesn't hClp him ! much Maybe tho discovery that uuag- land is willing TO hack up his dCC!siuH with his fists may aid him somewhat here- | after In 0 rcccnt game tCtwCCn the Clcve- lands and the Pittsbur-s that PugnaciOas young man, Tcbcau, O:TcrJ,i tO sc;tlc a | difference Of opinion with HuagIand by I putting on the gloves after the game HcaGiand on his part offered to discuss tt right then and thcrc without gloves in the presence of tho spectators.
 Eccfc, the veteran pitcher Is the latest ! addition to Mir. NuunR's staff. He has done too littlc work yvt to have It c1r- rcctly judgCSl Hut Tim always had success in umViring OcClsiunal galnsss when hc was playing hall, and tslieve | he will succrcd. He holds tho univCrsal inspect of all Lcaguc players, and that Is | n grcat point in his favor.
 l have Captain Ansun's wOrl for it that | such a crcaturc as ''thc iCst" umpiDs doesn't live and never did live. '-They' re all bad, my boy" hc exclaimed. and I ncVCr saw one in my lifC who would Agrca with me"
