Some of those unfortunate-Individuals hao been driven into ' retirement,- suffering from shattered ! nerves and broken - hearts,, but there ;'" are a few rfpw jn retirement who look . back, with some pleasure to their esie rienrea with the indicator. Tha average ball player is loath to admit that there is reully.a first-class 7 umpire , In , the "profession." At ; some -time or another the beat Judges of play 'make errors In ' their Tullnaa which chum narrow-mimled players to bs tlielr . llfo-kmg 'enemies. Titers are men who bave withdrawn from actlvu baseball playing who persistently declare that - they never got s square deal from an umpire and who cannot be- convinced that the handlers of the ball and strike ' Indicator were nn-n on tho level. Yet ' n the history of bawehall.no umpire has evcrbeen chargHlwlthdlHhoriity. al- though, many have been HminriTTIfr lit- cumpetenry.- . ' . :. -J lonent John" Kell yrho w" a" aporttnr man of New York City, who refereed h Corbett-Mltcheli and the Corbett - - Bharkey - sf fairs, was -probably ons of lthe beat umpires .that, ever worked fof the National league. Kelly, a, six-footer - sad a man of cold nsrve, was a csar on the ball field.-- lie was quick wltted. keen eyed and determined to suppress - the rowdies. Ills word was law, and ha - voramanded general respect. But. there was Just one Incident In his eareef that h4 will probably never forget, and that ' wns a' run-la with Dude Ksterbrook ite-lilcb was short and sweet. '. '- ' XsUy Oot bloked. "' .'

He was a king among ' the players and ruled them with a rod ' pf Iron. But toward ' the. close of his ' -reer his habits ware .not exactly . srood and he lost his crip, until ons day In Harlem Iat Tebeau defied -lm and . se groHBly Insulted him that Gaffney fi ' nil around him. Bob Ferguson also was a competent judge or play In the Old days. Always ' firm is his decisions, he stood no non ens and was popular even with , the xnoHt exacting fana. When Tom Lynch, an artist 1i) his line, first became a . National laa-ue umpire he was gener- aVly-rWk'Ulee beeaiMMi of hm method of . iilllg out d'.lHlon. He -was also ; dubbed' "The Portman," for the reason that he peralated in wearing a uniform . ft gray flannel, with a cap that had a ' attralght lelher vtxor. Lynch soon con Vlnced the players that he was i the . roaster of the situation. He absolutely yeftmed to- indulge---la arguments and 'K giilckly punished klpkers either with . jlnes or expulsion from. the. jramef It rlld not take him long to become the est umpire In the btwlneaa, and though - un sutocrat of the dUunmid he enjoyed , - the confidence of the public and a ma-oriy-of the players..

' He had fined Doyle and Davis 100 each for disorderly conduct on the iolo grounds and waq quickly called to account by Andrew Preedman. Be- . causa of this Interference with his au thority Lynch s;ot out of the frame and devoted his time to a theatre he owned to -Connecticut.

" JCmslie has been on the Job for nearly ''"li years. If not longer, and has worn ell with the public He is fair minded, eiven tempered, but firm, although he ., liHd more trouble last year with the . Jtltkers than ever before.

As an evldenoe bf how Eddie House holder is appreciated Id Ban Francisco, the following not from the Bulletin will testify. Inasmuch as the McCredies did not think thst Householder was aood enough for Portland: - "One of the eld guard-who -has - fol lowed the game for 20 years regretted to learn that Jim Morley would drop Eddie Householder from the payroll In case he managed the- Seals .However, since Morley Is not coming. House holder may appear In right field -this season. The following will have the sDnroval of Householder's admirers: --"Sporting- Editor- Bulletin. As a base ball, fan for many years, l wisn to regis ter an objection against a suggestion made by James Morley In a recent Issue of Vour -naner. ' "Mr. Morley saya that he would not attempt to Improve upon the able man agement given the Seals by Mr. Harris, yet - would remove Householder ror a 'faster man, -- . "Now.-Mr. Edltor, -- we have- seen - a few ballplayers In Our time, and tho writer .has yet to see an outfielder with a better 'wing-' than this same man Morley would replace, and as for th hitting. I believe a percentage of .270 for a player 1s 'mlddlln" fair. If the Seals had had a few more 'slow' men like- Householder they would hsve won last year's pennant In a walk "The writer 'was In Portland when that club released Householder at' Los Angeles, I think It was, and the fans of the northern city set up a howl that could be beard In Rome. Mr. Morley no doubt is a good manager, but he Is surely starting out wrong when he lets go one of the most natural hitters that ever 'stepped to the plate. No, sir! Keen Eddie Householder and ret a few more Ilka him. He Is the kind that wins -f pennants. Faithfully. "A FAN FOR TWENTY TEARS."" O'BRIEN'S MORTIMER IS SWEDISH.
