Thomas ambled out to the boz
to face Bulge Upton, put in tc
hit for Callahan. Jaggs could have
done no worse. Bulge swung al
two slow ones, and then popped
Iup a weak foul to the catcher
Harrison, the next man up, took a
Istrike, and then dropped the bal
neatly over the third baseman'
head for a single. The fans in the
Stands suddenly came to life with
I a sharp cheer. They screamed
madly when the Red catcher drop
ped the next ball and Harrison slid
TO second. Like a flash the tenn
per of the great sullen crowd
changed. 1t began to roar for
blood. Thomas tried a fast in
shoot on Kennedy, and Kennedy
spun around and took the ball be-
tween the shoulder blades. The
umpire gave him the benefit of the
doubt, and Kennedy logged down
to first base, so much elated that
he forgot to limp.
Higher and higher rose the yell
from the stands. Thomas luck
was deserving him at last. Turn
about was fair play. Gibson, the
Red catcher, walked into the dia-
mond and handed the ball to
Thomas. The pitcher went back
into the box, and discovered that
his shoe needed tying. The Blue
Sox rooters interpreted all these
signs, and yelled 70 the umpire to
make the Reds quit stalling and
play ball.
Ben DAILY stood at the plate,
wagging a short, heavy bat in mar
rowing circles. Twice he gripped
his war club between his knees,
patted his hands in the dust, and
wiped them upon the front of his
shirt. Thomas knew all about Ben
DAILY. He had been pitching to the
veteran for seven years. Thomas
had many theories about Days
hitting and only one certainty. He
knew that DAILY might hit anything
anywhere.
The battery signals passed !;
Thomas was to try fast drop.
| The ball broke like wounded
swallow; broke too soon, and strik-
ing IN front of the plate bounded
back to the stand, with ellison In
hot pursuit. Kennedy raced to sec
ond and Harrison to third. An
insane asylum might have been re-
cruited from the grand stand; the
bleacherites were demented with
joy.
/ Out in right field Hardy could
barely restrain himself. He want.
ed to throw his cap in the air anG
add his voice to the tornado oil
sound. Only a baseball miracle
could cheat Ben DAILY out of hii
pennant now. Thomas was break
ing; anybody could see that. Al
any rate. whatever happened, they
could not say the Reds had moi
been trying.
Just then Thomas delivered the
next ball; Hardy, following it with
his eye, saw DAILY shorten his grin
on the handle of the bat, and Choir
wickedly. The next he saw of the
ball 1t was sailing toward him. ten
feet over the first baseman's head
Hardy heard tremendous below,

toward the diamond.
| The boy realized the situation in
one sickening flash. DAILY had
chopped the ball just beyond the
Iinfield. Before Hardy there lay
the choice of two things. He
might play the ball safe" by TAX
ing it on the first bound. but if he
did, Harrison would tie The score
and it would take a perfect throw
to catch Kennedy at the plate. On
the other hand, he might try for a
fly catch. Should he get his hands
on the ball before it touched the
ground, it would be an easy mat
ter to throw to second base and
complete a double play. If he tried
for the catch and missed, both men
would score and the game would
be over.
Before he had taken two full
strides toward the diamond Har-
.dy's decision was made and in that
length of time he had weighed his
chance of reaching the ball. He
would try for the catch, and if he
missed it-well, 1t was baseball
to take the winning chance.
AS he raced toward the dia-
mond, Hardy was conscious of the
monstrous unfa!rness of the thing.
Why should this play be forced
on him, of all the men on the
team? Why hadn't DAILY popped
that ball to center? 1t would
have been safer there, for the
center fielder was playing deep.
Without taking his eyes from the
ball, Hardy saw that the coachers
and base runners were willing to
gamble that he could not make
the catch. Harrison was almost
to the plate, Kennedy was run
ming down third, watching Hardy

Diaz Complains Against
Americans Aiding Rebels

WASHINGTON, April 2O.-Unofficial
adyices that the delayed reply of
President Diaz TO President Taft's
note OF last Saturday, Is a sharp re.
tort, instead OF pacific promise
created great stir in Official circles
here today
All officialdom, however, was deter
mined TO walt for Official information
as to the character OF the note and
would not accept as final the reports
which indicated II to be exactly oppo-
site to what was expected.
According TO the unofficial report
the Diaz administration has created
the impression among the Mexicans
about Mexico City and elsewhere that
the revolutionary army is largely
made up OF Americans and that the
revolution is practically an invasion
by 'Gringoes.'
II is said that the Diaz note, instead
OF promising TO take measures TO pro-
tect American lives and property on
the border, announced a mere repeti-
ton OF previous routine orders to the
army. and on the other hand blames
the Americans for the border trouble.
The Diaz note Is said TO contain
complaints against the conduct II
American soldiers and officials st
Douglas. Ariz.. who are alleged to
have given aid to the revolutionists.
II Is asserted that Lieut. Tonsoco, OF
the federal army, was wounded by
a shot fired from the American Gus
tom house.
Special complaint Is made against a
Major Gardner" Capt. Gaujot?) IL
command OF the American troops at
Douglas, Ariz., alleging that he in
terfered in behalf OF the rebels.
Reference Is made OF the fact that
a rebel whose gun was out of order.
crossed the line and had 1t repaired
by an American soldier. The note is
said 10 quote a sworn statement bv
John Dean, OF Douglas, to the effect
that the insurgent forces at Aqua
Prieta, were largely composed Of
Americans.
The whole tenor of Diaz reply is
said TO be that. while the Mexican
government deplores the occurrences
on the border, it does not hold itself
responsible, and blames the United
States for the conditions which Taft
specifically asked Diaz TO remedy. Il
Is said to state in plain language,
that In the opinion of the Diaz gov.
eminent, the United States is either
misinformed. or is wrongly interpret
ing the situation.
