II and Other Things Decided at Meet

II and Other Things Decided at Meet
ing.
At @ conference between President Pull
lam and his stan OF National League um-
plres, held at old Point Comfort yester-
day, radical measures were taken to en-
force rules against Kicking" and rowdy-
ism.
The following important construction
was placed on rule %. relative to the
pitchers position. II is construed as
meaning 'that the pitcher. in taking his
position, shall place no part Of either foot
back Of the rubber, nor shall he take
more than one step In delivering the ball
to the batsmen." The enforcement Of this
rule viii do away with all preliminary
steps either TO tho rear of or side of the
pitchers rubber.
A stricter Interpretation OF rules pro-
hibhting the batsmen from baking the
catcher, and that OF innelders interfering
with base runners when caught between
the bases, was agreed ON. No batsman
hereafter win be allowed to take first
whan hit by a slowly delivered ball, the
umpire TO be judge Of such speed
Emphasis IS laid on the rule requiring
runners 70 keep within the three-foot lines
In going to first, and, in general, notice
is given of the literal enforcement OF
playing rules.
Those present at the meeting were
President Pulliam. Umpires Emslie

tary Heydler.

Written and Spoken Chinese.

Chinese is an Geographic language.
1t conveys the idea and not the word
for thing, as the figure s represents
the idea and not the wo9d. The Chi,
nese have invented more than 10000
marks for their writing, but it requires
only about 1900 marks for mercantile
correspondence and il is said to be
easier to learn than the words of an
ordinary foreign language. Russian is
more difficult for Americans than Chi
nese. 1t takes much longer to learn
the spoken language because of the
variety of dialects, but anyone can
learn enough of the writings to answer
ordinary purposes in few months
and have his knowledge perfected by
q linguist within about year. Exact
instruction in one of the Chinese Ian
guages can only be given by China
man.
