A Dry Time

The residents of this section of
our country have good reason to
complain of the prevailing drought,
as vegetation very generally is SUI
fei ing for want of rain, and the
condition of the crop of grass is
really alarming. Corn and also
potatoes are suffering and unless
rain soon falls, there will be very
light crops. The water supply,
however. continues abundant, and
the springs, wells and streams show
little sign of failure. In this respect
we are blessed above some other
portions of the world. In West
Australia great distress prevails,
as the water holes and artesian
wells have dried up and various
parties have dIed tor want OF water
Mines have closed down and hum
dreds of men are out of employment
AS 4 consequence they are unable
to pay the eXorbitant price demand
ed for water for domestic use. We
should, therefore. be thankful that
we are not reduced to the same en-
tremity and we have good reason to
hope that in few days we shall
have refreshing showers and nature
will give her usual increase.

The New Balk Rule a Puzzle to
MANY Baseball Cranks.

The new bak rule is not gencr-
ally understood, SAYS the Rutland
News. and an explanation of it will
be of interest to il host of baseball
enthusiasts.
A simple definition is this: "The
pitcher must throw to base if he
makes any motion to do so, or pitch
the ball, as the case may be. This
is all plain enough. Now, some
players and managers think, if, for
instance, a runner is on second base
and plays off he can run to third the
moment the pitcher turns around to
throw to second base, i. c., that the
pitcher must then throw to second,
and is not allowed to throw to third.
This is a wrong construction of the
new rule, and all players constituting
it that way will be caught and de-
clared out before they understand it
correctly. Such Il rule would be
ldiotic, and Of course, was never IN
tended bv the rule makers to be
construed that way. The pitcher
alter he takes one step forward out
of his pitching position signals that
he intends to throw to base instead
of pitch; hence he is not deceiving
the base runner and does not COM
NIT balk. After taking that one
step he can wheel around and throw
to any base he plcases, and runners
caught between the bases will he
declared out the same as heretoforc.'
This is the way the rule is defined
by President Young of the National
league, and all umpircs are instruct
ed to construe it as given above.
But if the runner is at first it is
altogether different. The pitcher
/ has no choice but to throw to first if
he has made the motion to do so.
