MORE WORK FOR THE
DOWNTRODDEN UMP

Pity the poor umpire. Not being con-
tent. that the arbitrator should have to
brave the wrath of the indignant fanatic
and bear the brunt of unreasonable criti-
cism the rule makers have added further
to his burden.
Players are wondering just how the
new practice rule will work out Hereto
fore the home club has had the diamond
all to itself for batting study. while the
visitors had to establish their hitting
games up against some distant fence. In
the future the umpire will arrive on the
grounds early and will see to it that the
visitors are permitted to knock the ball
about for at least twenty minutes before
each game. This will be additional to
the time allowed for practice.
A lot OF the Nationals were wondering
the other evening how the new stunt
would work out. So far as enforcement
of the rule is concerned, there will be no
trouble but the poor umpire will have
Just one more burden.
1t will be hard on some OF the arbitra-
tors If Tim Hurst can arrive only five
minutes before the game starts-and that
is a little early for him as a general rule
how is he going to get there half hour
in advance? Another alarm clock will
be needed by the chubby one.

MURDER AT MooRHEAD.
G. Il. Bishop Shot and Killed Joe
Hutchinson.

One of the most dastardly MUIR
.ders of Sunfiower county occurred at
Moorhead when G. T. Bishop went
to the home of Joe Hutchinson with
double barrelled shotgun and fired
four times into the room occupied by
Hutchinson, his mother and sister.
One charge from the gun took eff
feet in Hutchinson's breast, killing
him instantly, but the two women
were unharmed, although Bishop
fired at random from the dark
through an open window and the
walls of the room were peppered all
over with buckshot. Mrs. G. T..
Bishop, recently divorced from the
murdered was in an adjoining room
and escaped unharmed. The Hutch
inson home is located on the Nixon
plantation, a few miles from Moor
head, and the affair has created a
sensation throughout the country.
Bishop gave himself up to the
Sheriff and assigned as his reason
for the crime committed that he had
been unjustly treated by Hutchinson.
Said that he had intended to kill the
whole layout and regretted that he
failed to accomplish his purpose.

Several Registered Packages Secured,

ward offered. 80

Omaha, Neb.-Masked bandits
held up and robbed Union Pacific
train No. 2, known as the Overland
Limited, a few miles west of this city
and secured number of registered
mail pouches.
The robbers evidently got on the
train at some town west of here. The
hold up occurred about five miles
west of the city limits in deep cut
along the recently constructed lane
cut off. The robbers climbed over
the tank and forced the engineer to
stop his train and then proceeded to
the mail car. The clerks were forced
to open the door and hand out sew
eral sealed pouches of registered
mail. Once they secured the bags
they hurried away in southerly di-
rection and permitted the train to
proceed.
The passengers were not molested,
and as soon as the robbers left the
scene of the hold up the train pro-
ceeded to this city. A big squad of
police hurried to the scene. and at
once started in pursuit of the ban
dts.
The train was delayed but fifteen
minutes and left Omaha for Chicago
on time.
The robbers gathered up seven
pouches and the leader then remark
ed:
"This is all we can get into our au
tomobiIe."
They left quickly, walked down the
track 800 feet and clambered out of
the cut. A continuous fusilade of
shooting was kept up during the rob-
berry, evidently to intimidate the pas
sengers and crew.
The Union Pacific officials offered
a reward of $1,000 each for the cap
ture of the robbers, and a big force
of police and deputies from both
Omaha and South Omaha have start
ed in search of the outlaws. What
direction they started in when they
left the train is indefinite, and
whether or not they had an automo-
bile is not known. 1t is believed they
took advantage of the first opportu-
nifty offered to rife the pouches and
made their escape to hiding place
chosen in advance.

it was due to the heroic effort OF

supervisors. He wanted to get infor-
nation first hand as. to the recurring
reports that democrats and republi-
cans are to have an equal chance in
the southern states for these posi-
tions. After conference with Presi-

that in Tennessee one-half of the CEN
sus supervisors are to be republican
and one-half democrats. The demo-
cratic senators of Tennessee are to be
consulted in the appointment of the
democratic supervisors in that state.
He could not state whether this is to
be the programme in the other south
ern states. but he presumed that it is
the intention to divide these offices
between republicans and democrats
generally in the south, and that in
the selections the democratic sena-
tors would be consulted as to the
democratic appointments.
