interesting-this because of the liti-
gant's standing in their community
suits Of it's nature which has ever
occupied the attention Of the circuit

village OF Reynolds has contributed a
racy chapter to the criminal side OF

memories of those who daily packed
the court room as a pair Of spicy re-
lators of the ms and outs OI the racy

AN EXCITING FINISH.
Yesterdays Game at Galesburg Almost
Ends in u Free-for-All.


Ends in u Free-for-AII.
The ball game at Galesburg yester-
day almost ended in a knock-down-
and-drag-out. in which the audience
which gathered on the diamond was
anxious to participate. The trouble
arose in the ninth inning, when the
decision of the umpire against the
home team caused vigorous pre-
test, and his failure to comply
worked the audience up to such a
pitch of excitement that the diamond
was covered with the angry enthusi-
asts, showering threats Of violence
upon him. 1t was the ninth inning
with the score to 8 in favor Of
Sage's players, and there being no
immediate prospect of the Gales
burgs continuing the game. the Tri-
cities left the grounds. The umpire
was inundated by the crowd and
forced to reverse his decision in
favor of the Galesburgs, giving them
the game Q to O. He afterward
stated that it was done to avoid
trouble, and announced later that
thC W Viz
How 1t Began.
The trouble began this wise: A
ball was knocked to Whalcn at third
and he threw wild over first in at
tempting to catch the runner. The
runner made the circuit and was
caught at the home plate. The run
would have tied the score, but the
umpire insisted it was out, the
Galesburgs setting up the argument
that it was a blocked ball. In order
to get out Of the unpleasant predica-
ment, the umpire reversed his de-
cision. afterward declaring Sage's
men the victors.

occasionally occur that letter will get in

sometimes happen that IA foreign word
