The star catcher Of the league at

runners is Bill Dilger, of Birming
ham, who has allowed an average
of less than stolen base a game
Doc" Seabough is the boob catch

has allowed an average of four

OF course everybody knows that
stolen bases are not always the
fault of the catcher To prevent
them the pitcher must make the
base runner hug first and the sec

be able to tag out runners when
the ball Is thrown them in time.
In reality the scoring of bases
stolen in a game ought to give

belated returns from both states, was

the counting of ballots in several
doubtful states still is under way
That Illinois was safely in the
Wilson column was indicated early
in the evening but California, which

the Progressive ranks. The Wilson
plurality, however, early in the
evening again started upward as the
remote precincts reported, these pre-,
cincts usually are Democratic and
the Wilson lead seems safe.
After apparently holding Illinois
for nearly forty hours from the time
the polls closed, Col Roosevelt lost
its twenty-nine electoral votes late
in the day, when the assembling OF
statewide returns showed definite
victory of Gov Wilson. On the

the twelve electoral votes of that
state. The Wilson victory claimed
on the early returns had become
doubtful last night as the count pro-

perfectly useless to resort to me for
