The grounds Of Clarksville's protest
of the game with Cairo are thus ex.
planned by the Cairo Bulletin;
GAINESVILLE filed with the league
secretary a verbal notice of = protest
This protest is the first real protest
based on perfectly legal grounds. The
protest is based upon construction Of
the playing rule. In the seventh in
ming Clarksville had one Tqan out snd
a runner on second and third so they
claim. Jeffries hit q little pop up
which O'Connor muffed. Shuster de-
clared the batsman out on an lnheld
nit
The protest will be fled with Presi-
dent Thompson for his decision. UNI
pire Shuster and the Cairo players
claim that first base and second base
were occupied at the time that Jeffries
hit the pop up fly. The question is
covered by the following rule;
The batsman is out.

SCHEDULE FOR TODAY.
Viucennes at Paduoah.
Henderson ct Osiro.
Clarksville at Hopkinsville.

The Indians drew first blood in the
initial game of the Vincennes series
yesterday afternoon at Wallace park
before the largest crowd of ladies seen
at the park this season. The battle
was q hard fought one and the victory
OF the locals can be credited largely to
the misplays of the visitors, although
Paducah made only one hit less than
the Vincennes boys.
Freeman started the game for Pa
duoah, but got sick and made way for
Brahio in the Sixth inning. Brahio
finished the game, compelling the
visitors to battle three extra innings
before their wings were clipped.
Paducah Tailed her first run in the
second inning by Violet walking to
first. Warner hit a ball to pitcher
who threw Violet out at second.
Gerard popped out to left field aud
Wernecke walked. Warner started to
steal second and Lemon threw wild,
letting Warner score on the error.
Freeman popped out to first base re-
firing the side. One run.
In the fourth inning Vincennes tai
lied twice by Lemon flying out to cen
ter field. Gwyn knocked a hard fly
to Warner who let the sun interfere,
dropping the fly and letting the run
ner reach second base. wilkinson
got his base on balls and WAS followed
by Roedel who hit safe to left field,
Gwyn scoring. Kolb famed and Dou-
tells singled to left field scored Will
kins. Duffey flew out to center field.
In the last of the fourth the Indians
Tailed again by Violet going out from
pitcher to first. Warner walked and
was followed by Gerard who went out
from short TO first. Wernecke's single
scored Warner, but Wernecke was re-
tired while trying to steal second.
In the seventh the Indians scored
two more runs, Land was struck by
the ball, Violet hit safe to left and
Warmers fly to center enabled Violet
TO reach third, Land scoring on the
throw. Gerard's single scored Violet.
werneoke knocked a grounder to
pitcher who with the second basemau
completed double, retiring the side.
In the eighth inning the visitors
tied the score. Gwyn went out from
third to first but Wilkinson hit safe tc
center field. Roedel hit a double to
left field and scored Wilkinson. Kolt
flew out to left and Roedel scored on
Doutell's hit to right center. Duffey
followed with a single and Smeltz'S
strike out retired the side.
The game proceeded with goose eggs
for both teams until the twelfth in

How Great Men Proposed to Their

From the Chicago News.
 Of the late Field Marshal Count Wal dersee it is said that he proposed to Prin- cess Noer, who became his wife, under the following circumstances The princess had been shopping and had small par eel In her hand when he met her, saluted and turned around to accompany her to the door of her residence. The princess held out the parcel to him. He looked distressed. She affected not to understand why He reminded her of the severe rule prohibiting military men of every degree from carrying in the street parcels or even ladies wraps. She told him that the rule was absurd. and that in this instance it must be disregarded, or else. He laughed. took the parcel and called next day to know what penalty he would have incurred had he not broken the rule. She made a saucy reply. Both banded words half-gay. half sentimental. with the con- sequence that the visit ended In an en- gagement.

As the maiden he loves passes him the youth plays louder and more feeingly. II the girl ignores him and passes on he knows that she will have none of him; if she steps up to him and lays a flower upon the instrument he jumps up, grasps her by the hand. taking care not to drop the flower and they go away together.
 When d Dyak or Borneo makes love he helps the girl in the hardest portion of her daily toll. If she smiles upon him, no matter how sweetly, he does not imme- diately respond. but waits until the next dark night Then he steals to her house and wakens her as she lies asleep beside her parents. The parents, if they ap- prove make no sign, but sleep on-or pre- tend to. If the girl accepts she rises and takes from her lover the betel and sweet meats he has brought her. That seals their betrothal and he departs as he came, neither speaking nor being spoken to.
