UMPIRES DREAD DARK DAYS
Dislike to Work Owing to Many Pos.
sIble Complications.

"The days when it looks like rain
are the troublesome times for
umpires," declared Billy Evans, of the
American league staff, in recent
tanning bee. When the day is clear
and there are no clouds in the sky
everybody feels good and the Jumps
have comparatively easy time, but
just as soon as It looks like rain the
players become restless and If II com
mences to drizzle then there is some.
thing doing. Frequently the weather
leaks a little in the early innings. If
one team is ahead then that team
wants to hurry TO complete the re.
quired five innings, while the other
team backs water just as hard and
tries to get the game called before the
five innings are completed, so they
will not be charged with a defeat.
Then the umpire's troubles begin. Be
tween the team that desires to hurry
and the team that wants to go slow
there is always something doing. It's
one of the hardest things in the world
to make a reluctant athlete get into
the game II he wants to stall. Some
of the older players are so clever a;
working delays that It is pretty hard
matter to tell when they are blocking
the game unnecessarily. All the
umpires in the league bump into this
state of affairs many times each sea,
son and II is about as trying as any
position in which the umpire finds
himself. Give me the bright clear
days when the sun jumps out of the
sky and sets on your shoulders like
heavy weight, Then everybody is
full of ginger and the game goes
through to a quick finish"

CLAIM RECORD FOR PITCHER
Coast Baseball Fans Say w. johnson
Allowed No Runs In 81 Games.

Baseball enthusiasts in the north
west claim for Walter Johnson, 10
years old, attached to the Idaho State
league ball team at Weiser, south OF
Spokane, Wash, the worlds record as
pitcher, he having twirled 81 con.
secutive games without a run being
scored against his delivery. The
recognized record Is 50 games. Among
the performances to young Johnson's
credit is striking out the first eight
men who faced him in league game,
when he also struck out IL other bat
ters during the nine Innings. Another
feat was striking out 1S men in a
game, during which not a runner of
the opposing team reached third base.
Johnson is a native of California.
He is tall, is as strong as the pro.
verbal OK and has a reach that would
make the Bob" Fitzsimmons arms ap.
pear rather ordinary by comparison.
The team he plays with is not an am.
ateur organization, but is composed
of prominent players from the east
and middle west and every man is
a star in his position. The people of
Weiser are eager to back them
against any team west of the Missouri
river.

Baseball fans find little complaint to
make against the way the ball clubs
are hitting this season and the result
is that all adverse talk of the foul.
strike rule, which raised such a storm
couple of years ago, has passed
away.
While the individual batsmen are
not ranging higher in their percent
ages, the clubs, as clubs, are doing
plenty of stickwork, and the fans have
been regaled many time this sea.
son with smuggling contests that are
the Joy of the rooter.
Games in which the hits have
mounted into two fgures-from ten
upward-have been frequent, and
there have been many contests In
which the number of runs tailed has
reached similar proportions. Both ma.
ior leagues show that this kind of
games are not uncommon this year,
though the American league, with
fewer games played, has had a great
ar number OF big hit" exhibitions than
its opponent, the National organiza.
ton
Since the agitation concerning the
foulstrike rule has ceased the fans
have come TO see for themselves that
It is a good thing" said Secretary
Locke, of the Pittsburg club. "Any
innovation, no matter whether good
bad or Indifferent, will cause lot of
adverse criticism from critics, but
time will overcome all that just as It
has in this instance, and in others.
THAT the foul-strike rule does not
affect the batting is easily to be seen
by any fan who wants to see It. Let
him look over the records and he will
see in a jiffy that there is just as
much batting to-day as there ever was.
When a close game is played, with lit.
tie hitting, the fans don't like 1t half
as we'll as when the ball is hammered
all over the lot and a barrel of runs
are scored. They like the close games
well enough, but there isn't the inter.
est in them that is found in a regular
slugging bee"
BY little figuring 1t will be found
that in the National league, where 252
games had been played up to the time
of this writing, there were no less
than AZ contests in which ten hits
were made; SO of II hits, II of 12 hits,
20 OF 10 hits, Il of IA hits, three of IS
hits four of 16 hits, one of II hits,
three of Is and two Of 90 hits. which
l9 the highest number registered in
either league in one game this year
In the scoring of runs the National
league has had nine in which ten men
were scored, seven with II runs six
with 12 runs, one of 13 runs, two OF II
and two of Is.
In 1885, of total of 252 games, ten
or more base hits were made, and in
81 games ten or more runs scored.
The American leagues record is
slightly higher than the Nationals
or 24S games played, 147 had ten hits
or more and 20 games had ten or
more runs scored.
There have been AZ games, in each
Of which ten hits were made. "a of II
