Serbian Women Face
Suffering and Death
By WILLIAM G. SHEPHERD.

SALONIK1, Dec. 25.-A million Ser
bian girls and women are facing intense
suffering and possible death through
lack of food and clothing, or worse
fate at the hands of rowing bands of
comitadjis, not yet entirely suppressed
by the invading armies.
Well clothed, well fed soldiers of the
allies suffered intensely from the cold in
southern Serbia. What is happening TO
the girls and women left behind by the
retreating Serbian army. the world can
only guess.
The Serbian government ordered all
men and boys to leave the villages and
join the army In the retreat through the
Albanian mountains. CoinCidcntally the
women and girls were ordered to re-
main to care for the villages.
In other countries the women said
cood-bl to their men and saw them go
to war. But these Serbian heroines
said good-by to their men and then wait
ed for the war to come to them, with
all it's horrors and outrages
1t Is not the refugees Who fled to the
SHOWS of the Albanian mountains who
are suffering most. 1t is the helpless
women and girls in the manless homes

Why Do They

Move by Batters With Men on the
Paths Caused by Ignorance Of
Rules. No Need Of Caution

dered why batsman always steps
out of II while base runners return
to their bases after foul ball has
been batted. II the batsman forgets
to do so he Is almost sure to be or
dered by the manager or coacher to
get out Of the box In such cases.
This applies of course, to fouls that
are not caught.
l wondered II II were supersti.
ton, a habit, or tradition for there
is no class OF people-not even nc
tors-more susceptible to superstition
or tradition than professional ball
players. Inquiry failed to uncover
any particular ink that would result
II the batsman did not get out OF his
position and await the return of a
base runner to the bag from which
he started Nor was It due TO a mere
habit because the players and man.
ayers seemed imbued with the belief
that It was a necessity. Finally 1t
developed that ignorance OF the play
ing rules is usually responsible for
this practice.
Players Don't Know Rules
Ninety.nine out Of every hundred
players will tell you, II you ask them

will tell you that II the batsman re-
mains In his position and the pitcher
delivers the ball before the runner
retouches his base after a foul the
runner will have to go back anyway
before he can advance on base hit.
Now none of these things is true.
II does not make bit of difference

Ball Out of Play
The reason is that the ball is au.

foul hit is made and not caught. 1t
Is just the same as II the umpire

gally until the ball is put in play

Umplres Face Trouble

Rule SO would be found to be de-
| cidedly live one If IL should happen
some day that pitcher did not wait
| for a runner TO return to his base af-
ter n foul and If the batsman cracked
| the ball for a home run. The UNI.
pire would have to rule that the hit
did not count because the bail was
not In play. He would have TO do
that II he enforced the rule literally.
II probably would cause a riot, and
consequently the wise umpire IN such
a case would penalize the pitcher for
not waiting by allowing the hit TO
stand. But in such case the runner
who was on his way back to base
after a foul hit would not have to re-
touch his base. He could run On a
fair hit from wherever he happened
to be when the pitcher delivered the
ball.
II is true that rule So says that a
runner shall return to his base II the
umpire declares any foul not legally
caught. But It Is also true that the
penalty for not returning to a base
In such case must be claimed by the
opposing side before the ball Is de-
livered to the batsman by the ritch-
er. Therefore, II the slabman pitch
es before the runner gets back TO
his base he forfeits the right TO
claim an out on the runner who lid
not 60 back.
Seldom Touch Base
Only a few players are aware OF
this and If you will watch you will
see that they seldom actually re-
touch base after foul that is not
caught. They go back nearly to the
base, which is the intent Of the
rule. Harry Lord almost never re.
touched his base after foul. lie
merely went back within n step or
two of 1t. Then If the pitcher want.
ed to put him out for not retouching
his base the ball had to be thrown
there so that he could be tagged. In
that case Lord could touch the base
but the instant the bali was deliver
ed to the batsman again Lord could
not be called out for not retouching
his base.
This is Just the same as when
runner cuts base In advancing en-
a hit. The claim must be made at
on'e or II will not be allowed. II
the ball is pitched before the penal
ty Is claimed the rules forbid allow.

cry OF the ball to the batsman.

PHELPS

Judge z. e. Swink attended a
meeting of the State Board Of
Agriculture, Of which he is a
member, at Carthage the latter
part of last week. The Board
was entertained during their
stay by Col. VIM. Phelps, and
they inspected his fine dairy
farm, on which there are over
one hundred Jersey cows. Judge
Swink says it is one of the finest
dairy farms in the State. They
also visited the stock farm Of
Mr.. Hill, who has more high
grade thoroughbred cattle than
any stock farm in the State.
They were taken through The
Gill quarry, from which the
stone for the new State Capitol
building is being quarried, and
the Judge says the manner in
which the great blocks Of stone
taken from the quarry is hand
led is one of the most wonderful
sights he has ever seen.
On his way home Judge Swink
stopped over at Steelville and
bought fifty head of fine mules,
part of which was sent to his
mule barns at Ste. Genevieve
and the balance to his barns
here.

HARVEY ELMER BARTON
HAS FATAL ACCIDENT
WHILE HUNTING

Monday morning about 8:15
O'Clock, while Harvey Elmer
Barton and Carl Davis were rab-
bit hunting near Leadwood,
their dog jumped up a rabbit,
and Barton in the effort to see
the rabbit during the chase
jumped upon big stump, where
he stood with the breech of his
single-barrelled shot gun rest
ing on the edge of the stump
and leaning considerable weight
against the barrel. Instantly
the breech scooted off the stump
and in some way was caused to
fire, the entire charge taking eff
feet in his left side just below
the heart. He died in a few Sec
onds. 1t was developed that
Carl Davis witnessed the acci-
dent and that the coroner's jury
found that the death ensued by
reason of an accidental gunshot.
Mr.. Barton was about 80
years old, leaves a wife and 4
children. They lived in New
Town near Leadwood. Inter
ment was had from the under
taking parlors Of Mr.. Boyer at
Leadwood.

where he found all the doors
locked, so he returned home and
called up James Miller, who with
his wife proceeded TO the plant
with Mr.. Moran. On entering and
searching the plant they found the
dead boy in the telephone booth.
Constable Bullock was notified,

him. Dixon claimed that young
Miller had called him and his bro
ther into the plant, locked the door
and started to beat MIN up, when
he drew his jack knife in self-de-

substantiation of this statement
young Dixon showed cut on the
side of his head which he claimed
was made by Miller striking him
with the telephone receiver. Evi-
dences of a hard struggle were
found at the plant, and the window
in both doors was broken.

jury young Dixon was held on a
charge of murder in the first de-

THE BIG EVENT OF THE
SEASON

Tonight, at the Monarch,
Pennington will be given one big
treat. AS this paper has stated
before, Laurence Smith and his
Orchestra will put on a lively
concert program, with the per-
sonnel of the orchestra being
composed of veteran and some
professional players, this organ
ization is able to deliver an en-
tertainment which can be
thoroughly enjoyed by anyone.
The tempo at which Mr.. Smith
leads his orchestra is marvellous,
his Interpretation most delight
full. And the best feature of the
concert is that the orchestra
viii furnish plenty of lovely mu-
sic. When this orchestra rem
dered a concert before the S. E.
Mo. Medical Association, many
said that it was equal to the
work Of many of the profession
al orchestras of the larger cities,
and that the selections were of
the most entertaining type. The
Mothers Club of Flat River
closed an engagement with this
orchestra for their annual en-
tertainment, as they have a wide
lrspdtation for securing the very
best, it is conclusive that Mr..
Smith has an AL concert pre-
pared.
Besides all this, he has decid-
edly the best reader that has ap-
peared with any orchestra in
Pennington. She needs no in
PRODUCTION, as Miss Cover will
be most heartily welcomed.
Miss Harris, the popular CON
tralto of st. Louis, will also be
with the orchestra. Her .rendi-
tion of "a Perfect Day" is so
exquisite that many have re-
quested her to sing it tonight.
Besides a selected number she
win sing Sympathy" from the
"Firefly' and the Barcarolle.
from the Tales Of Hoffman, both
accompanied by the orchestra.
In all the concert is exception
ally splendid and anyone failing
to hear this viii certainly re-
gret it.

SILVER JUBILEE AT ST. JO-
SEPH'S CHURCH

Thanksgiving day was made a
special service day at the Cath
olic Church, in celebration of the
twenty-ffth anniversary as a
parish church. 1t was a mission
church for many years before
that. Several former priests in
charge of the church took part
in the celebration, Rev. Joseph
Collins of st. Louis being the
celebrant, and Rev. B. S. Stolte,
deacon. Both were former
priests here, but are now in st.
Louis. Father Morgan acted as
sub-deacon, and Father Casey of
Desloge as master of ceremon-
les. Father Coffrey of st. Louis
preached the sermon from Col
ossians, chapter 3, verse IT.:
"And whatsoever we do in word
or deed, do all in the name of the
Lord Jesus; giving thanks to
God, and the Father by Him."
1t was a plain practical sermon
full of love and charity for the
world, regardless Of denomina-
tions, and with malice toward
none. One hearing Father Cof-
frey can understand the great
hold he always has on his con-
gregation in the city.
The choir rendered some fine
music. The members are: Miss
Hattie Smith, organist; Profess
sor Hugh Porter, Ewdard Bar
rol, Miss Barbara Caroline Tul-
lock, violins; sopranos, Misses
Irene Lang, Anna Putnam,
Mrs. R. P. Lang, Chas. Rein
