After revolving the facts In the man In
his mind for two days tho solemn funny
man of the Republican grew positively hi
larious Saturday over the fact Hint , nil.,
of the pen or of the llnotpye man's hand
caused what a captious critic might
construe Into a trilling error to
creep Into the columns of The
Tribune Thursday. The genius whose
burst of humor on Saturday made lumi
nous the ponderous editorial page of the
Republican Is no doubt the same aspirant
for the laurel wreath of fame who would
"Inaugurate" bock beer anil who Is wont
to use. such choice expressions as "tho
Well-known stranger," "the near dis
tance," "some party who wanted a bicy
cle," a "fine point of law" and "consider
able excitement." With the ear marks of
such learning and -culture evident It is
probably only Just to also give him credit
for tho effort to heap new honors on
Shakespeare by dazing the public with
the Information that the immortal Will
lam wrote "Klchelletl."

could be made as the scorer put all the
runs made by both sides In the one
column. The Bcore unofficially an
nounced was 16-0 in favor of the Butes.
The feature of the game was the speedy
pitching of the Butes' twlrler. who
smashed a bat held by Captain Beamish
with the first ball he pitched.

sports were a quarter mile race In which
