DESIRE on the part of the bats
"a man to also act as umpire was
- - the cause of very peculiar mix
up in a minor league game last sum
mer. It was a play that would have
never come up had not the batsman
made a ruling contrary to the one rem
dered by the umpire on the bases Here
is how il happened.
The batsman hit ball to the left of
the shortshop, and it looked like a
clean hit, so much SO that the runner
slowed up a trifle, believing that no
play could be made on the ball The
shOrtstop however, made a sensational
stop of the drive and an equally brill
liant throw to first base. Hearing the
shouts Of his team mates to hurry the
runner put on speed and slid into first
base Tt was very close play, but the
umpire ruled that the batsman was
safe, and so made known his verdict
by thrusting the palms of his hands
downward.
Started for Bench.
The batter who hit the ball believed
that he had been thrown out, and. get
ting up on his feet, started in the di-
rection Of his bench. His team mates
rushed out to meet him. informing him
that the umpire had called him safe. He
made rush back to the bag, but be-
Tore he could again reach the base, the
tirst baseman touched him with the
ball The umpire declared the runner
put The decision caused heated dis
pute and almost the forfeiture of the
game, but as the team that was ruled
against won the game the disputed
point was never definitely settled by
the head Of the league in which the
play took Mace.
Referred TO Big Leagues.
The ruling of the umpire naturally
caused much discussion, and the play
was considered from every angle by

The returns from the county
election are the same in tOday's
issue of The News as appeared in
the extra issued Wednesday. The
totals NAV be changed a little since
receiving the corrected returns but
the standing Of the candidates is
not affected III any way by the
changes.
Knowing that the readers of THE
NEWS would be anxious to learn
the outcome of the election, as
regarded the county candidates.
the extra was issued as soon As the
precinct reports could be secured
and the names of the successful
candidates learned.
As far us The News can learn
there was little, If any, double
crossing OF underhanded trading
INDUCED in by the candidates for
county Offices during the campaign
preceding the primaries.
Whether or not this will hold
true through the campaign up to
the fall election remains to be seen.
AS a rule, following an election,
there are II number of sore spots
and the defeated candidates or their
friends are apt to feel that they
failed 20 receive Il square deal.
But as time passes the soreness
disappears and the defeat is often
forgotten l.. the fight to defeat the
party's opponents.
AS q rule the bitterness of defeat
dissolves with time. but there are
exceptions to all rules, and it re-
mains to be seen whether the situa.
ton in Walworth county is TO be
classified as q rule-or an exception.
