LIME ROCK.
MAX MARION.

The ball game here last Saturday afternoon between the Norfolk and Lime Rocks came to an abrupt ending during the latter part of the third in
 ming. The score at that time stood Lime Rock l, Norfolk 0, and it looked rather squally for Norfolk as the home team had two men on bases, only one out, and the best batters coming up. Garvan, the Yale pitcher, who had been engaged by the Norfolk team was Sin the air.. found fault with one decision by the umpire, walked out of the box and declared he would not pitch any longer It is stated on good authority that orders were given to the team to throw the game. The umpire, Charles Turner of Pittsfeld, engaged especially for the occasion. is considered the best in Berkshire county and by his decis- ions showed that he was an old hand at the business After giving the Norfolk team five minutes to resume play he awarded the game to Lime Rock 90. The large number of spectators present were much disappointed at the Aasco, but attach no blame to the home team.

THURSDAY, AUGUST 30. 1900.

''The least said the soonest mended" is an old but good proverb. Suffice il today to say that last Thursday evening two politicians called at the NEWS office and demanded that the NEWS retract its conservative report of the caucus held at the Town Hall in North Cansap, Aug. IS. Tho visitors were in no mood to talk calmly or reasonably about the subject. One of them insulted the edi- tor and made vulgar and uncomplimen tary remarks concerning the newspaper. The editor was threatened with libel suit unless he retrsoted his report of said caucus. The editor informed the visitors that he was willing to publish any statement either of them desired to make in regard to the caucus. But that proposition did not satisfy them. and the editor was given the alternative to either within one week write and pub fish as retraction something he may lot be able to prove or else he must de- fsnd libel suit, and he was further more informed by one of the visitors that the visitor just as soon spend $2, ,0OO on the editor as on any body else. The Nxws does not wish to be outdone in courtesy and forbearance therefore it now offers said visitors one weeks time in which to calmly investigate the mat ter. ascertain the real facts and with. draw their unreasonable demands. The NEWS can afford to be lenient inasm uch
 e different persons have voluntarily of. fered to furnish all the money necessary to defend libel suits.
