and they are literally slamming
the ball all over the lot.
The game of Saturday was re-
plete with features and exciting
periods, and the pitchers did good
work and exerised excellent iudg-
ment. The umpiring Of Mr.. Trip
lett occasioned considerable mirth
among the rooters for the home
team, as his "Striker-One" had
never been heard here before.
We will say this. however: Mr..
Triplett is the most capable umpire
who has handled the Indicator here
this season. and if he gave the
Shepherd College boys any shade
the best of decisions, IL was not
particularly noticeable and did not
figure in the result of the game.
The features of the game were
the work of the Shepherd College
catcher, catch by the pitcher of
a hot liner from Young's bat: a
running catch by Walters in center
field, one-handed catch of a long
fly by Moore, in left field, the heavy
hitting Of Young, the local catch,
including home run with three
men on bases, the work of Foley
at shortstop, and the work of Gibbs,
the pitcher.

mount a bicycle and pedal rapidly
away. There were four men in
the crowd, and the others escaped
west ON Main street,
An examination of the door and
window in the rear of the poStofiice
disclosed the fact that the burglars
had endeavored to pry the door
and window open, but were proba-
bly, frightened away by the loud
barking of Bob, Postmaster
McCormick's black bulldog, who
sleeps in the postoAice room.
This makes the fourth attempt
