YESTERDAYS BALL GAMES
NEW HAVEN TOOK 4 DOUBLE
 HEADER FROM DERBY.

No Interest in the Contests Scores Ver. 6 to 3 and to 5-Neyy London and Bristol Wrnngie for Six Innings Game Given to New Lo London-Noryyicf SmOthers Meriden.
 New Haven had no trouble in taking a couple of games from Derby yester- day afternoon at the Savin Rock grounds in the second double-header of the week for the Blues. The scores of the games were to and 6 to 5. The first was about as slow and lifeess a game as seen at SaVin Rock this sea- son and the efforts of some of the new men on the visiting team to play ball were laughable. Reeves, Nelson and Duff are three late ones for Derby and their playing was responsible for near ly all the runs scored by the New Ha- vens. Reeves made a mess of two chances, and after that he was sent to right field and Nelson, who started in the right garden, was put in at short stop. While he made a. great catch in lHe SGCOIlu SdIlle HS lGt o SoNP'S f"" through him which cost three runs
 Ramon pitched the first game and did we'll He struck out ten men and was untouchable when there were men on bases. He made monkeys of some of the Derby batters, his brother Bill and Hi Ladd being the only ones who could cope with his speed. New Haven scored four times in the opinipg inning on a base on balls, two glaring errors by Reeves and singles by Braun and Connor. They made two more in the third and were then blanked for the rest of the game. Tn the third an error by Kiernan, Fitzmaurice's single, a base on balls and Duff's misplay were responsible for the runs.
 In the sixth inning Derby found Ban non for three hits, and. coupled with an error by Roger Connor, they made three runs. Bannon made wild pitch in that inning that was costly, allowing a man to score and another to advance a base.
 There was no regular umpire, Ashe and Manager Scannell doing the honors, The score of the first game is as fol- lows:

WRANGLE IN NEW LONDON.

l New London, Aug. 22.-After playing hopelessly idiotic ball for five and half innings here to-day Bristol refused to continue the game and at the end of a half hours senseess wranglng the um- pire, Hayes, declared the game forfeit ed to New London by the score of to 0. The score stood 5 to in favor of New l London at the end of the first half of the sixth inning. Stanhope, the New London right fielder, retired the third Bristol batsman on fly. He threw the ball to Wilson at second base. When the first New London batsmen stepped up to the plate the ball was missing and the Bristol players refused to al- low any other ball to be put in play. Wilson said he left the ball lying near second base, but 1t could not be found there. Several new and old balls were rendered, but all were rejected and when Stanhope identified one of them as the last ball in play the identification was disputed Hayes at first refused to compel the Bristol team to accept one of the proffered balls and there were half dozen incipient conflicts between players during the wrangling. Finally, lluWeVGi, lllG ulllpliC dSCluSu lIldL tol must continue, and when they re- fused he called the game. It was com- mon talk among the spectators before the game that the Bristol team had been unduly celebrating their yester- days victory over Norwich. The score as played:

PILLORIED
In Akron on Charue of
Assault.
SENSATIONAL CASE
In Which Some Very Delicate
Testimony Is introduced
--Ethel on the
Stand.

Over at Akron the case of Ohio
against Attorney Newton Chalker, is
developing some sensational testimony
Chalker is accused of assaultlng Ethel
johnson, girl not yet 16 years of age
1t is alleged that she visited the office
of the attorney and that it was while
she was there the assault was COM
mitted. The girl and her mother were
placed upon the stand Thursday and
gave their testimony.
The girl told of having visited Mr..
Chalker's Office in company with Harry
Finn to ask him how old she must be
to get married. This was about Feb
ruary 1. He told her, she said, that she
should come back another time and he
would give her the information When
she went again to the Office Mr.. Chalk
er was not in and she went a third
time. 1t was then, she said, that Mr..
Chalker took her into his private office
married; that he would rent room for
her and her friends need not know
where she was. She described the pri-
vate office by saying that 1t had mat
ting on the floor and contained few
chairs, lounge and a small desk or
stand 1t was on the occasion of this
visit, the girl said, that Mr.. Chalker
took liberties with her.
In the cross examination an effort
was made to get the girl to make ad-
mission that would tend to show that
her character was not of the best. She
admitted having gone to Cleveland
and that she was brought home by her
step-father and a cop. When asked If
her mother did not keep disreputable
house in Youngstown, the girl said: "T
won't answer that" She admitted hav.
ing been arrested in Cleveland where
she pleaded guilty to disorderly con-
duct and using obscene language. She
admitted running away with Harry
Flynn, but denied that she passed off
as his wife. An effort was made to get
her to say that she had told number
of persons that she was 16 or II years
of age, but she denied all such state
mentS.
The mother of the girl was placed
upon the stand and when she saw At
torney Chalker looking at her she
! shrieked:
Don't you look at me, or I'll scratch
your eyes out"
The prosecution has not finished its
testimony. The defense will make a
great effort to show the charact or of the
girl up in bad light.

SOME FIGURES
Cleaned by a Reporter From
the Books of the City
Clerk.

During the time of the business coun.
Gil, it is learned from the books in the
Cfiice of the city clerk, the council sold
bonds aggregating $3,467, for replen-
ishing the light fund. The overdraft,
March II, 1892, was $2,S06.67. There
was due the Sun Vapor Lighting com;
pany, in March, $SS3.22. The bill of
the electric light company was $768.34.
The bill of the artificial gas concern
was S126.24.
This was a total of $S,051.47. That
would have been the amount of the
overdraft il all bids had been paid.
In 1898, under the business council,
the overdraft was $4,O36.58. There
was owing to the Sun Vapor company,
in February $SS526. The electric light
people had in bill for $794.17. The gas
company's bill amounted to 1925. That
made a total of $5,S41.01.
The city is better lighted than 1t was
in 1928. They had but 112 arc lights
to pay for. The present council has
261 arc lights to pay for, and has made
a better showing with its light fund.

East Liverpool Girl Ends
Her Own Life.

--Was Beautiful
Girl.

Special to News-Democrat.
Washington, March 29.-Margaret
Mayer, aged 26 years, of East Liver
pool, Ohio, committed suicide by taking
morphine here Wednesday night in a
house, run by Grace Ferguson, at 1907
C street, Northwest.
The dead girl was a blonde and ex.
tremely pretty. She had been here
only five days. On her table in her
room was found an open New Testa,
ment with several passages marked
One passage underlined several times
was in Chapter II, Romans:
"The goodness of God calleth to re.
pentance," etc.
She is said to have inherited con.
siderable money from her father, but
squandered most Of 1t, and recently
turned to life of shame.
The New Testament which was found
in her room had written on the fly leaf
''To Margaret Grace Mayer, from Mar.
garet Duncan, East Liverpool, Ohio
1899."
Miss Mayer is said to be about 26
years old, and left East Liverpool
seven years ago. At that time she was
a member of the high school class, and
had the reputation of being one of the
brightest scholars in the class. She
was the daughter of Mr.. and Mrs,
William Mayer, both deceased.
The woman went from here to Pitts
burg and was a resident of that place
for several years. From there she
went to Washington, in which place
she has since resided. A brother is a
printer, employed In Cleveland.
