Back in the days in Cass county when Charley Graves, now a staid and dignified attorney, Sam, Jim and Tom Patterson and other of the real ball players cf forty years ago were making the sandlots hum with the national pastime, and the daj's of the small rcores was unknown, D. It. Churchill was one of the players and an enthusiast. He is now living at Twin Falls. Idaho, and as the spring reason came on he had the inspir ation of the old days and lapsed into the muse as to the game as it used to be and this tribute to the old time baseball game was as follows: PLAYED IHOM THE BENCH By I. It. Churchill I We have a ha'.ehr.ll nine in town, they play most every day: That old time fancy prompted me to va ut to st e them play. We used to play some ball ourselves. a long, long time ago; I v.-ond?ivd if they'd learned some , tricks we didn't used to know. II I kinda sauntered down that way, ju: t sorta putt red 'long. But when I was a block away, I see an awful throng (V people, seitin' tverywhere; some boys up in a tree; And every b, dy yellin' I thought at first for me. Ill There was a fence around the lot. just like a big coral; I couldn't find a decent place where I could sOe, and tell Exactly what was goin' on on t'other side the fence, So I gave ;i boy my knot hole, and the gat" m. in lil'tv cents. I just got ill and found a seattraignt behind home plate-; The pitcher started to unwind, and 1 didn't have to wait But just about ;s. minute; then I gave that scoffing yell. For when that pitcher pitched that ball, no iivin' man could tell V At all where it was goin' to go I never saw the like; And if I had been strikin'. I'll tfriick a strike. He made a led o"motions to crowd's attention; The way that ball would 'round was ju-t loo rank tion. VI I said right out '"it" Sherad was pitchin' that old ball. It would go the way it started wouldn't veive at all." And. if a guv did. hit a b; knocked it ?- alley west. He'd only tun a ba.-e or two he'd stop, to l'ef. VI? Th v 'is 'd a bou t a peck or so oL" balls: And a lot oV'tllers bad on suits, that didn't play at all.
