The game yesterday was q pretty one
from start to finish and the interest
was never tagging. Richmond fans were
there In soodly numbers and they cheer
ed to the echo when the Lawmakers
walked off the field with the first game
OF the series. And the champions were
the ones with the defeat proposition.
There was sadness In Lynchburg last
night.
The Shoemakers sent Darlnger, the
fast little shortstop, to bat In the first,
and he waited for four of them. Bowen

Proper Unpiring.

Umpire w. II. Horner, who was here
ut the opening OF the season, handled the
Indicator yesterday, and he was monarch
( OF all he surveyed. His decisions were
given in plain and loud voice, and he
didn't for minute tolerate any kicking.
He showed this in the second inning.
when he benched First Baseman Earl
Holt. of the Lynchburg aggregation. for
kicking. 1t happened when Shaffer, for
Richmond, stole second and was called safe.
Holt ran out to Hoffner and was ordered
back TO his position. He went back, but
didn't remain there, and In another In
,stant was out OF his position and pro-
testing again to Mr.. Hofrner. Hoffner
didn't say much this time. but waved
his hand towards the bench and Holt
had to so out OF the game. McKesitt
was brought in from right field and
played at the initial sack, and Walsh,
the star catcher OF the league, went In
right garden for the visitors. But the
tirmness OF the umpire had stopped all
scnseess wrangling. and the grand stand
npplaudcd the umpire. Tho trouble was
nipped in the bud
It will be remembered that President
jake Wells gave Just this kind OF in
structlons to the umpires and tho play
ers are In their own light to foolishly
protest. Umpire Hoffncr is the nrmest
handler OF the indicator seen In Rich

THE WALKING WOMAN.
A Queer Old Legend OF the city of
Mexico,


Queer Old Legend OF the City Of
Mexico.
AS Is generally known. senior, many
bad things are met with Mt night In
the streets of the city. but this walling
woman, In I.loronn. Is the very worst
Of them all She Is worse by far than
the Vaca dc I.umbre. that Mt midnight
comes forth from the potrero of San
Eebastlan and goes galloplng through
the streets like blazing whirlwind,
breathing forth from her nostrlls smoke
end flames, because the fiery cow. Sc
nor, while dangerous animal to look
at, really does nobody any harm, and
La I.lorona Is as harmful as she
can be.
Seeing her walking along quietly
ut the times when she Is not running
and shrieiing for her lost children
she seems IL respectable person, only
odd looking because of her white skirt
and the white rcboso with which her
head is covered, and anybody might
speak to her. But whoever does speak
to her IN that very same moment dies!
No one who has stopped her to talk
with her ever has lived to tell what
happens at that terrible encounter, but
it Is generally known that what does
happen Is this: Slowly she turns to-
ward the one who las spoken, md
slowly she opens the folds Of her white
rcbos0, and then Is seen bare grim
ming skull set fast to IL bare skeleton,
and from her fieshlcss jaws comes one
single Icy cold breath that freezes into
instant death whoever feels 1t. After
that, shreklng again for her lost chill
drcn, she rushes onward, the white
CLEAN OF her cushing the darkness, and
In the morning the one who spoke to
her Is found lying dead there with
look Of dcspairing horror frozen fast
In his dead eyes.
What is most wonderful Is that she
is seen In the same hour by different
people In places widely apart, one see
ing her hurrying across the atrlum of
the cathedral, another beside the ARGOS
de San Cosme and third near the
Salto del Augua, over by the prison of
3elcn. and MI in the very same mo-
mcnt of time.
She Is so generally known, senior, and
so greatly feared that nowadays few
people stop her to speak with her, and
that Is fortunate. But her loud, keen
wailngs and the sound of her running
feet are heard often and especially on
nights Of storm. myself have heard
them. scnor, but have never seen her.
God forbid that ever shull!-Thomns
