The Ways of the EMPIRES.
The WAYS of the genus umpire have
~ been beyond US. For example,
.srsmaker was chased and suspended
foor important days for panning
0Toueblin. Donovan yesterday was
tbssed from the park for saying out
jou5 what he thought about the hazy
rendition Of Nallin's eyosight. Yet IN

eynressed his wrath aloud, but IN ad-
oition took a good healthy SHOVE AT

,bly YET Witt was allowed 10 hnlsh
the game where if Iank had turned
ne same trick he would have peen sen
fenced 10 Siberia for forty-nlne years
judging from past precedent.
As we remarked above. II pans US
fevond measure to assail any cltlzen
who already has troubles enough OF
lis own. but Nallin's work YESTERDAY
rot only in the instance mentioned ou'
in other cases on both sides Of the
frsv. was a trife too crude and raw 10
be passed b. without comment.
Baker was out Saturday-out Tor a
month shead-but Rube Oldrlng was
among those batting and fielding with
brilliant debut. The RUDE, fresh
from his Jersey potato beds, opened
with q single and a double, scored two
,uns led a timely double steal ano
made TWO great catches in right, there

the keen earnestness he put INTO ms

H sHections of the crowd.
Yankees Still Hold Lead.
