gave her name as Georgia Kimball. ana
said her home was in ST. Louis.
The assault was made at the close OF
the act, where Othello siezes lago ana
chokes him. James was playing Othello
and Lindsey Iago. James was dumb

stage while Lindsey, recognizing his as

LYNCHBuRG WON.
Their Hitting Ability Brought Grief
TO the Farmers.

PETERSBURG. VA. May 1-(spe-
claD-After a hotly-contested game this
afternoon the Lynchburg boys won out
in the ninth. Petersburg apparently had
a lead-pipe clnch on them until the eighth
inning, the score being 8 to l in favor
Of the home team. In the eighth the
visitors scored three runs. and the crowd
began 10 get nervous. as the score
was uncomfortably close. II had com
menced 70 rain just little. and If the
rain-makers had been on the grounds
quite a sum would have been subscribed
for a shower sufficiently heavy to have
ended the game
These Lynchburg people are hitters.
and when they need three or four runs
10 win in the ninth they generally man
age 10 get them. Well. this occasion was
no exception. The home team was
blanked in the ninth. McGann was hit
by the pitcher: Schabel and Smith made
hits scoring McGann; then Big jim Lit
tie hit over the right-field fence for a
home run. and IL was all over.
Armstrong. for Petersburg. pitched good
baU with the exception OF being a little
Wild Bruner, for the Hill Climbers. GER
tainlv appeared easy 10 the spectators.

down after the fourth inning. The

While the second game Of the series
between Norfolk and Richmond, played
Yesterday afternoon. resulted in defeat
for the champions, it was quite the pref
test played game Of the season, and the
200 or more cranks who witnessed it
were given their moneys worth in every
respect.
Both teams worked hard and not all
error was made by either side. Malarkey
twirled for Richmond. and manipulated
the sphere with great skill. He was
only touched up for five hits during the
game. and he had almost perfect control
Of the ball.
Blankenship. the prince Of leisure OF the
old Tri-City League fame. pitched for Nor
folk. and he, too, did remarkably well
lie held the Bluebirds down 10 quin-
tette OF hits. and though he was little
wild at times, did az whole great work.
The game was won BY Norfolk only
because luck was with the sea-cOast lads,
and not through any bad playing on the
part Of Wells's lads. Here is the score:

Roanoke won a game from Portsmouth

hammered the ball TO any part OF the

strong uphill game. one OF the pluckiest
exhibitions ever seen. and even IN the
