continuance of the hearing until

In this connection Attorney For
resi- said in part
THE legislators of the state IN
Illinois meet in the general assembly

This is so because along about
1856 congress passed numerous laws
regulating elections to the federal
house of representatives All those
laws made state officers of election

THE theory Of this Indictment is
that a state representatives when he
sets in an assembly OF the legisa

that ne is g representative of The state

This is not so. The Judges Of Cook

LEACUERS NEED
RECORD KEEPERS
New Official Would Keep Note
Of all Star Performances
DEMAND FOR OFFICIAL
IS MOST INSISTANT

Within q year OF two the Ameri-
can and National Leagues are likely
to add to the list of their joint en-
ployes a, Keeper of the official rec
ord" The demaud for such an Off
cial is insistent.
Nowhere In print to-day is there
anything absolutely to show the larg-
est number OF putouts and assists a
first, second or third haseman or
shortstop has ever made in a nine
inning game; how many men a pitch
er has ever struck out I'm succession;
how many men pitcher ever has
caught mapping in one game; how
many base runners ever were caught
stealing i'm one game how many men
has one outfelder thrown out at the
plate or at the other bases In a game,
OF how many times a right fielder's
throw has caught a numbering base
runner coming down TO first.
There is q SUSPICION in the minds
Of the old-time fans that PARROTS
record Of l6 accepted chances at third
in a nine-inning game Is a record
that LaiOie once put himself az the
head Of his class by accepting IA
chances at second I'm regulation
contest, and that the record al short
is is perfect plays in nine innings.
But who, indeed, knows? Great Is
the need Of a Keeper of the official
records"
Who shall say what outfelder holds
the record for the greatest number OF
put-outs or assists in nine innings
When Harry Bay made IL outield
catches without a slip in a 12-inning
game between the Maps and the Red
Sox in Boston a few years ago the
claim was set up that a record had
been established This was probably
true. but what is the record for q
nine-inning game?
Twice il has happened in a major
league game that one of the frs
basemen in the battle did not have {
put-out, while i'm several nine-inninl
games it has happened that one OF th'
first-sackers has retired as many al
% OF the runners.
Fans there are who claim that onc'
in one game Right-hander Evans o
the Cleveland team threw out threl
batters at first base. Did he? Wer'
there a keeper of the official rec
ords" there would be no need to in
quire.
Somewhere, too, the assertion hal
been made that in one historic majo
league game the catcher took part fl
every play, with something like Q
/, put-outs and four assists.

RECORDS AT
FIRST CORNER
Only Five Players Go Through
Game Without a PutOut

Five times in the history Of base
ball has a first baseman gone through
a game without having a putout.
In the contest between Pittsburg
and Chicago recently, Hoffman, of the
Cubs, did not have a putout. His
only chance was n throw from Tinker
and he dropped that II was the
fifth time in the history OF the game
that that record has been hung up.
