That fellow was August Belmont,

Those who ask--when is a basebit
not a basehit?'-may find the answer
here.
The Giants were playing the Reds
in New York with the home crowd at
bat Burns was on second and Doyle
was at bat. There were two out at
the time. The Red hurler served one
up TO Doyle and he smashed a bounder
TO deep short. Herzog almost ran out
OF the diamond 10 snare the ball-but
he got it
Herzog saw in a flash that he had
no chance to catch DOYLE at first be-
cause Larry was AT Inar very moment
only three jumps away from the bag.
Had Herzog made the throw Doyle
would have beaten it by three strides
at the very least SO HerzOg. having
noted that Burns got a slow start
from second, Tipped the ball to third,
Heine GrOh grabbed IL and touched
out Burns sliding in for the third
out
Doyle didn't get hit on that play.
It was scored as a fielder's choice.
Yet If no runner had been on the
bags Doyle would have beaten the
throw easily. It was a clean hit but
the slOwness Of Burns in that par
ticular instance robbed Doyle.
The play also stands out as another
instance Of Herzog's brafniness
Ninety percent Of the other short
fielders in the game would have had
their minds so focused on making the
play at first, that they wouldn't have
taken third into consideration But
HerzOg did and because of that he
beat Doyle out Of a hit killed off a
man going to third. retired the side
and possibly stopped the Giants from
scoring in that particular frame. |

the New York running horse tracks,
and the public, as usual is the goat
The prizes offered to bracket horses
at both the Jamaica and Belmont
tracks have been amazingly small, in
view Of the taken" at the gate Some
Of the total prizes for each race run
only around the $500 mark, others are
lower; a rare few are higher As
result some horsemen who intended
campaigning their animals on the New
York courses are shipping them else
where. Day after day there are num-
erous scratches
The averaae field at Belmont was
somewhere around five horses Once
a two horse race was staged Ihree
and four horse brushes are frequent
Rarely does the field total eight or
ten, as is the case on other tracks
where the meet promoters are some
what liberal.
The numerous Withdrawals were at
first charged to the fact tnaI many
of the steeds were afflicted with a
coughing ailment It is true that such

Decoration Day crowd there was about
$4,000 The admission was 50 for men

the total receipts were about $4,000.
And on that day the race officials
ran off six races with total prizes

"BECK'S" AMEN CORNER

NORTHWESTERN league is said
to be very shaky and there IS
fear that It may not last out the
season The Butte club has called
on the league president to produce
proofs that the other clubs Of the
league have all posted the $1,000 for
felt Managing shaky league is no
snap, believe me.
CLEAN sport OF none should be
the motto Of the Commercial
league. The directors meet tonight.
PENNY LEONARD has outpointed
Johnny Dundee. This would
make Leonard the logical candidate
for the next lightweight title bout.
Leonard, not White, should get the
bout in South America with the
champion.
NEW E. P. & S. W. team reminds
the fans of the old Feldmans.
Five of the former Commercial
leaguers are now with the railroad
team and they should be able to
hold their own with the best semi
pro. teams in the southwest.

from Almanac If Almana can get
the bout on at White Spurs, N. NJ,
for July 4. he is asked to communi-
cate with Sgt. Greene at once.

People To At

The series Of three meetings which
will be held in the interests of
Democracy the last three days of
this week are arousing the keenest
interest In the county among Demo
crats and Republicans alike who
have been caught on the wave Of vii
son enthusiasm which is sweeping
the county, state and nation.
The first Of these will be held
Thursday evening in Fredericktown.
The services Of Hon. James Rice,
ex-mayor Of the city of Canton, have
been secured for that occasion. Mr..
Rice is an orator Of powerful ability
and commands the closest attention
Of all who hear him. Early In his
academic days at Bethany college,
he developed powers Of speech-mak-
ing which have been one of his
strongest attributes.

nor Harmon and Governor Cox and in
such a capacity made a record which
has not been equalled since. He
stands close to the farmers OF Ohio
and, for this reason, will address an
institute in Danville on Friday after.
noon on purely agricultural subjects
His political address will be made in
the evening.
For the meeting at Centerburg,
which will be held on Saturday even,
ing, Oct. 2S, Hon. Benton w. Childers
OF Columbus. prominent business
man, will furnish the oratorical fire
works. Mr.. Childers is known
through the state as speech-maker
of marked ability. His powers OF
presenting the political questions OF
the day from the standpoint of the
merchant make him an exceptionally
appealing speaker.
A number of Mt. Vernon Democrat:
are planning to attend all three ol
the meetings to hear the many good
things in store for them. More yet
will be present at one or two of the
gatherings.
There has never been such opti
mism among Democrats OF Kno1
county for assured success at the
polls and these meetings, all of them
promise to be largely attended.

REsIsTs DRESSING OF MEM
BER.

While preparing a meal Sunday
night, John lump of Fairview, in an
alleged bad state of intoxtcation,
spilled some boiling soup on his left
foot, severely burning that member.
lump was still lying on the floor
when a physician, called Monday by
some of the neighbors, attended the
man. The outside of Zump's right
foot was badly burned. However,
after a great deal OF trouble trying
to get the man to permit the physic-
ian to dress the wound, the task was
completed.
Zump will be unable to move about
much for several days, but nothing
serious is expected from the badly
scalded member.

ANOTHER WHOpPER NAILED

Columbus, Oct. 25-Replying to
references made by Governor Willis
In his recent speeches to starvation
of state institutions" the Democrat
ic state executive committee yester-
day quoted figures from the records
of the board of administration show
ing that in the last year Of the Cox
administration an average of $47.37
was spent for each of the states
wards, while last year. with food
stuffs costing much more, only $46.72
was spent to supply sustenance for
each ward of state institution.

people.
While property must be pro
tected and respected, men, wo-
men and children, human beings,
must have the first consideration.
"Wage-earners cannot afford to
lose their rights and opportuni-
ties through negligence and In.
action.
Meet, discuss the great issues
to be decided on election day,
November 9TH, and then 90 TO the
polls, cast your vote as your con-
science directs for labor Justice,
freedom and humanity"
With such clear-cut issues before
them, Is it little wonder that Mt
Vernon workingmen compose good
ly part of the vast army which Ii

And, is not the workingman who
made the remark at the start Of thii
