RATHER unusual vet simple
play came up in a very i'm
portant game last summer in


leagues. The fact that it happened In
the last half of the ninth. with two men
out and the score z tic is what created
most Of the trouble.
Both teams scored a run in the first
innifg. but in the following innings the
pitchers were the masters of the situa-
ton and not n run threatened IEc plate
until the last half Of the ninth. The
visitors were retired in order in the
first half of the ninth. and after two Of
the home team had gone out on striker,
the rootcrs leaned back in their seats
and began to prepare themselves Tor :.

pitcher was the lead-0fT man. known TO
bt. q hard fellow to pitch to because Of
his diminutiye size After Getting the
count three and two. he fouled of a
couple Of good ones and finally worked
the pitcher for base on balls. O2
course the play was for the runner TO
attempt to steal second. On the sec
Ond ball pitched, he made the break. II
he reached it in safety. a single would
surely win the game, az the runner was
very fast man.
The runner got away with pretty
good lead, making it evident to tho
catcher that he would have to hurry
his throw. which he did. The throw WAS
considerably wide Of the bag and il is
doubtful IL II would have gotten the
runner If nothing unusual had happened.
But as luck would have 1t. the ball
struck the umpire. who was squattcG

to the plate, but failed to get the man.

LAD THROWN FROM HORSE
HAS KULL CRACKED IN FALL.

Maddox, N. d., Dec. 2S.-A very
sad accident occurred near" Flora. A
1~4-year-old son Of Mr.. Chamberlain
was thrown from a horse and had his
skull fractured, the lad dying at $3.50
Saturday morning. 1t seems he had
been sent after the COWS, and mount
ing an unframed and fractions horse,
dashed headlong for the 5arnyard
gate, which usually stood open. The
gate, however, was closed, and in the
darkness this was not noticed. The
boy rode at the closed gate at top
speed and the horse stumbled, throw
ing the boy and horse some thirty
feet distant, fracturi1g the boys skull.
Physicians were summoned, but there
was no question but that the poor lad
was fatally hurt, and he passed away
next morning. Funeral services were
conducted by Rev. Miller at Oberon.
