Masons Have Signed
Heavy Umpires.

There will be more than 500
pounds of umpires in Saturdays

American League Park for the
benefit of the Eastern Star Home.
The Masons are not at all par
ticular about argument in the
contest either. Billy Belts, who
tips the beam at considerably
over 200 pounds, and Cy Mac
donald, who isn't shortening the
life of any respectable scales by
stepping thereon, will handle the
baseball game. When it comes
to selecting umpires the Masons
aren't doing anything by halves.
Belts doesn't play with 'em and
neither does Cy, when it comes to
handling ball games.
