Umpiring Is Easier
Than in Early Days

The umpires of today have a compare
lively easy time compared to the arbit.
ers Of the early days of the nattona'
game when the batsman could not take
his base on balls till nine had been
called. But what made it harder, was
that the umpire called only every third
ball, keeping the count in his mind till
nine had been pitched. Then the bats
man ambled down to first.
The nine balls rule held for the first
four years of the National League, be-
ginning 1876 and continuing to and In
elusive of 1879
But the officials reached the conclu-
sion then that the pitcher had too much
leeway, and the number of balls was
reduced to eight n 1880.
The demand for more batting spurred
on the officials and they cut down the
number of balls to seven for 1881 and
1852. Still the disposition was to penal
ize the pitcher and tighten the labors of
the umpire, and the balls were reduced
to six in 1888, which number held good
for four years. Then in 1887 the pitcher
was again penalized by the adoption of
a rule calling for five balls, and in 1888
the number was placed at four.
This seems to have struck the mag
mates as being the proper number, and
no change has since been made.

The Emperor's Return No doubt
every one has read more or less of
the episodes in the great Napoleon S
life, and it will be of great interest
to those who witness this historical
love and jealousy drama. Besides be-
ing very interesting, the picture is
instructive The story involves as
the hero, one of Napoleon's subordi-
nate officers. A former follower Of
Napoleon and at present commanding
a detachment of the coast guard, is
celebrating the betrothal of his
daughter, Annette, to Marco. the fish
erman, Marco is late and appears to
share a secret with a girl friend of
Annette's. Annett notices this and
sees him leave note at the same
girls home on the following day. An
nette reads the note, in which an APP
pointment is made for a meeting at
st. Elois Bay. The coast guard mean
while receives a warning that Napole-
on may land at the coast Of Var. This
is Marcos secret. He wants to greet
the emperor and wishes the girl.

The Carnival" This is a story OF

frivolity demands that she devote
more time to her home and baby Fl
