A play that always creates trou-
BILE in baseball is where a base rum
ner is compelled 20 hold his base
on a fly ball that Is caught before
he tries TO advance.
Hundreds OF times during the sum
mer arguments arise over this play.
AS a matter OF fact every time a rum
ner advances a base on a fly ball
that is caught his right TO do so is
questioned.
II the runner happens to be on
third at the time and is able TO score
on such hit all the more attention
is paid TO the play.
I know one major league manager
who evidently has instructed MS
players TO return the ball to the base
a runner left every time the play
comes up and appeal to the umpire
for ruling.
A number OF times I have had
players on his team make an appeal

runner had not left too soon. I

RANCH JUMPED
 SHEEP OUTFIT
 ASKS CUSTER
tFrom Thursdays Daily)
 Bob Dickson, Alleged to Have Entered Upon Possession of Bear Creek Ranch, Developed by Hudspeth Cattle Company.

What is described as an example of champion nerve is recited in a suit for an injunction to oust Bob Dickson from the premises of the Bear creek ranch of the Hudspeth Cattle company. The action was filed yesterday morning by Ellis & Loveridge.
 Elmer Hummer, a director of the company, authenticates the instru- ment that got the court in action. It is charged that about the first of the month Mir. Dickson established him self i'll the company's cottage at the Bear Creek ranch, took up the use .of one of its wagons, supplied him self from its stores of sacked beans and potatoes, raised on that ranch, began enjoying to the full and in a highly exclusive manner, all of the fruits of 25 years of occupation of that favored section. Moreover, it is alleged that the plaintiff deems an injunction the sole instrument of inl- mediate relief for the reason that the plaintiff believes any other attempt to approach the defendant on the matter of his occupancy of the ranch would result in display of violence.
 In support of its claim to pos sessory rights to the Bear Creek ranch, its acreage, improvements and water right, the Hudspeth company cites 25 years of continuous use and enjoyment of the premises and the fact that, in order to consolidate its possession, it filed location notices on the property i'll April, 1913.
 In the time of development as aforesaid, the company claims to have so improved the ranch that 1000 head of stock and a necessary remuda of 100 saddle horses are now dependent upon 1t.
 Dickson, it is alleged, has made evident his intention to remain on the rancho. He has added to the structures already built by the Huds- peth company, one frame house, con- structed during the month of March this year.1
 The prayer is for an injunction and a decree that the Hudspeth company owns the ranch subject to the prior title of the federal government.

Eli s. Perkins, we'll known mining man and rancher Of Congress June ton and Prescott, has been appoint led deputy internal revenue collector to succeed George Nj. Dickson, who resigned that position a short time ago after having filled 1t capably for the past several years. MT. Perkins arrived yesterday from the southern part of the state, where he has been working, chiefly at Tucson, during the closing days of the 1921 filing period
 MT. Dickson was moved to resign his position as revenue collector, be- cause of i'll health, and is planning to enter the public accountancy business in Prescott
 Alr. Perkins IS known probably to three-iourths of the county, and to all the old-timers. He was at one time reporter for the Journal Miner, in which capacity his wide ac- quaintance stood him in good stead Aside from this work, he has long been deeply interested in mining, and there is scarcely a pot-hole in Ari- zon2's hills whose history, character and development he is not accurately familiar with. He is one of those in terested in the NC-4 silver mine in the Jersey Lily district.
 The territory covered by MT. Perkins will be the same as that served by Mir. Dickson, including most of Yavapai county and part of Maricopa.
