TODAY'S OLDEST STORY

Washington, July 6.-HaVe you
been among those hoaxed into hunt
ing for a passenger, or wood pigeon,
nest containing eggs, hoping to get a
$4,000 reward from Uncle Sam?
Thousands of persons have been
hoaxed in this way, the Department
of Agriculture announces in an Off
cial statement heading of future VIC
tins of the fake story. The Depart
ment says the wood pigeon like the
dodO, has long been extinct and that
it is not offering any reward, dispite
hundreds of letters which have in
Quired about the alleged offer.

third baseman had the ball waiting
for him. And he legged it home on
an infeld bOundeT, again making a
good slide.
Tinker will probably stand pat on
his infield, using Smith and Zeider at
short and leaving Farrell at second.
Fritz bats well and only a surprising
return to form on the part of ZeideT
can force him out of the job. Yves
terzil has been returned to Brooklyn
because of a bad leg. Tinker was
afraid to take a chance on him.
Brown was the pitching victim and
PTendergast won.
Today and tomorrow are off days
for the Feds. Kansas City comes
Thursday for four games. Then the
Whales go to st. Louis for a quartet
of battles, after which they hike home
to meet all the eastern teams.
Fielder Jones sensational action in
quitting the management of the st.
Louis Federals yesterday after a row
in Kansas City with Umpire Finneran
has brought the umpire question to
head. Jones protested a decision and
was chased from the game. He i'm
mediately notified the Terrier officials
that he was through as manager.
It is believed that Jones will recon-
slider his decision, as he is being sup
ported by the club owners.
Something like the act Of Jones was
needed to call attention to the punk
Umpiring that has been seen in two
leagues this season. The American
has been good, as usual, but the work
in the National and Federal has been
more a guessing contest than umpir-
ing.
Some of the indicator handlers who
have appeared on the West Side
drawing National league salaries
have been especially bad. They have
been off in their decision. No one
club has been favored. The work as
a whole has been a mess of poor

ing professions for the clubhouse. It
makes the umpires appear forceful to
the initiated. As matter of fact,
their judgment is WaVering. ---
In calling one decision last Satur-
day Umpire Emsie was so undecided
about calling Good out at first base
that his hand seemed palsied until he
finally decided to jerk it up in token
that Wilbur was out. Orth, EasOn
and Byron have also had trouble be-
cause they seemed to be guessing
and the players knew it, {
Over on the North Side matters
have been just as bad. Bill Brennan
and two or three others get along all
right, but Finneran, Howell and Fyfe
have been in continual trouble.
While Jones' action will have a d.
rect effect only on the Federal league,
it may cause President Tener to take
a slant at the records of some of the
National arbiters. Hank O'Day is still
without a job. Hank may have his
peculiarities, but he is a good umpire.
Grover Alexander pitched his third
one-hit game in month, banking
