GAME WAS FORFEITED.
Unfair Decision of the Umpire Breaks
Up the Game.

Up the Game.
Special to Times-Republican.
.lAmes, May 1O.-The ball game in the
forenoon between Drake and Iowa state
College was well attended and prom
ised to be a good game at the start. but
at the beginning of the third inning 1t
began to rain and many of the specta-
tors went home, In the last half of the
fourth inning with Ames at
bat and two men out the UNI
pire furnished by Drake made a de-
cision which proved to be h last
straw that broke the camefs back
Ames refused to play the game out.
Furious of Ames was on third and at
tempted to steal home. The pitcher
threw the ball but as he proved a little
slow. the Drake catcher dropped on his
knee in front of the runner completely
blocking his way and on receiving the
ball put it on him and he was called
out by the umpire. Ames demanded a
new umpire or no game, but Drake re-
fused and the game ended. His decls-
ions all thru the game locke very par
tial to the Drake contingent and as
Drake have acquired a reputation in
Ames of winning at any cost Ames de-
cided to give them the game by de-
fault.
Captain Hollis, of Ames, said after
the game: "All we asked was a square
deal. Kehoe was put IN as umpire af-
ter Sheldon had been proposed by
Drake and accepted by us. He was
grossly unfair. Whistler was deiiber-
ately blocked at home. We We're will
ing to continue play with another UNI
pire in Kehoe's place and to consider
Whistler out, but Drake refused"
1t was a good fast game up to the
time of the trouble, with the Drake
team in the lead. In the first inning
Drake failed to score and Ames scored
their only run. The second proved
more beneficial for Drake. Kline got
first by being hit by a pitched ball, stole
second, then went to third and scored
on a single by Caster, who stole second
and scored on a wild throw to second
by Reese. This was h only scoring
lone during the second, Ames failing to
reach first base. In the third neither
side scored. In the fourth Drake started
things again. Kline got a single, Shaw
did the same. The next WI men UP
out center fielder. Another stolen
base by Kline and a hit by Jackman
netted the three runs which the
Drake university team received. The
next man up flew out to second base.

FRieHTFuL FALL OF MINERS.
Three Men Drop $50 Feet and Live t
Tell of the Experience.

Crystal Falls, Mich, May 9.-John
and Nicholas Mattson and hester Lar
son, miners employed in. the Armenia
iron shaft, fell a distance of $50 feet
yesterday and all are alive and able to
tell of their frightful experience.
Beyond a broken leg sustained by
John Mattson, severe cuts and a bad
shaking up endured by all of them, the
men are apparently none the worse for
the drop.
EARLY yesterday morning they en-
tered the hosting cage, preparing to go
into the mine. The brake broke and
the cage with its human freight crashed
to the bottom. Their escape from a
terrible death is considered marvellous
by the other miners.

BRYAN AS AARON.

Council Bluffs Nonpareil.l
NO." says Bryan. II am not a candi-
date. I've concluded to let some one
else be the Moses and 1 will be content
with being the Aaron"
That's right, Br'er Bryan. You can
make up better for the part of Aaron
than for that Of Moses. You're better
fitted by nature for that role. Moses.
you know, was a man of actions and
not words, and as he confessed himself:
81 am slow Of speech n Of a slow
tongue He was a modest man, too,
and when called to the leadership he
| protested and in great humility cried
out: 'who am l that l should bring
the children Of Israel u of Egypt?
They will not believe me nor harken to
my voice."
No wonder that Br'er Bryan couldn't
play the part of such a man. He
couldn't get even the first line right,
and instead of saying who am II" he
would begin by saying II am who"
Just imagine Moses not only insisting
on being nominated under the threat of
breaking up the party, but also on die
tating how the ten commandments
should be framed. No. Br'er Bryan
made a mistake when the tried the role
of Moses.
But he has hit it right now. He's built
right for an Aaron except that he hasn't
got the beard, but his populism can
soon grow one. 1t will be remembered
that While Moses was modestly declin-
ing to be the leader because he was
SLOW of speech and of a slow tongue
Aaron came along just then n the
suggestion was made: aaron can
speak we'll. He shall be thy spokes-
mai with the people. and he shal be,
even he shall be to thee instead of a
mouth" Aaron didn't wait to be asked
twice, but he went into the mouth bust
ness with both feet. He didn't stop to
ask what else there was in 1t, but went
to mounting and kept it up, but with
out doing any particular harm so long
as Moses had an oversight over him;
but one day Moses went up in the
mountains to get the tables of stone.
and Aaron being left alone with the
people he got them to feeling dissatis-
fed with their hard life and induced
them to take off their earrings and
other jewelry and give them to him to
put into a calf.
Br'er Bryan's experience in gathering
up from the people enough to enable
him to put $3.50 into a blooded heifer
ought to make it Easy for him to play
that part of the role of Aaron.
By all means, Br'er Bryan, let some
che else play Moses while you become
TO him instead of a mouth.
