THIS UMPIRE WAS
 GENUINE ROBBER
This Bandit One Held the Indicator.

For years the baseball fans have yelled "robber' at the umpires, and there is no title implying expertness in grand larceny practices that they have not applied to the men who run the games. Well, at last there is some authority for bringing these indict- ments. The next time that anyone says you do an injustice to an um- pire. by shouting epithets that are in tended to reflect on the arbitrator'S honesty just show them the following story:
 A few days ago United States Mar shal Jack Abernathy was tipped off that a gang had planned to rob the postoffice in the little town of Harrah, Ok. Abernathy and a posse caught them in the act of pulling off the job. The robbers broke for cover and in the running fight that followed two of them were shot dead and the third fatally wounded.
 One of the dead men was identified as Frank Quigg, a, former umpire. He was better known on the diamond as Senator" Quigg, and had served as an arbitrator in the Texas, Pacific Coast and Iowa state leagues. In the West he was once considered star.
