Two twenty-five minute halves were

poor physical condition. The game was
a very clean one, and the Georgia

waycross, Ca. Nov. 11.-Mr. John w.
MCGEE was last night acquitted of the
charge of larceny after ust,which case
was heard in Ware Superior Court yes
terday afternoon. The jury was out
about thirty minutes before returning
the verdict that vindicated Mr.. MCGEE.

friends OF Mr.. MCGEE are greatly re.
lieved that the unfortunate affair ha,
finally been disposed OF and that he he,
been cleared Of the charge.

A PLUCKY GIRL.
She Defends Herself Against Buriy
Negro with n Hat Pin.

Columbus, Ga, Nov. 11.--As Miss
Maude Tomblin. a young girl, Is years
of age, who works at the Bib Mill on
East Highlands. was going to her home
on East Highlands, early tonight fol-
lowing a roadway in a rather lonely
part of northwest Rose Hill, she was
accosted by strange negro. The girl
ran and the negro followed. She want
ed him to let her alone, saying her un-
Gle, policeman, lived in a house just
a short distance ahead. He was not
frightened, and ran in front Of the girl,
blocking her path. She tried to escape
him by turning aside, but he turned TO
the same side of the road and kept her
back. The negro then advanced upon
her, making a desperate attack upon
her, with the evident intention of COM
hitting criminal assault The plucky
girl drew her hat pin and lunged II at
the negro, and she believes stuck 1t
in him. He struck her in the breast
and caught her round the neck, trying
to throw her to the ground. The girl
is strong for her age, however, and re-
sisted stoutly, at the same time MAX
ing desperate efforts to stick the negro

cries. and baffled by her stout resist
ance, he ran away. He carried the hat
pin, either In his hand or sticking in
his fiesh the girl did not know. The
negro was a stranger.
The alarm was given and blood
hounds were procured, while a
crowd of nearly 200 men is
on the scene tonight armed with guns
and pistols, looking for the negro. So
far the hunters have made no progress,
and it seems doubtful at this hour II
the brute will be caught.
At 10 o'clock the girl went to the
scene, and showed the place in the
bushes where the negro had hidden in
wait for her. She is the daughter of
Mr. James Tomblin, hackman. So
violently did the negro grasp her neck
that the skin was rubbed off in sew
eral places.

BROKE HIS COLLAR BONE.
Bobby WaIthOur, Bicycle Champion,
Injured i'm Atlanta,

Bobby WalthOur, Bicycle Champion,
Injured i'm Atlanta,
Atlanta, Nov. 11.-"Bobbie" Walthour
broke his collar bone tonight in his
race against Joe Nelson. The accident
happened in the second lap of the
fourth mile. Walthour was endeavor-
ing to pass Nelson when the motors
came together. Neither Bennett nor
Lawson, the motor men, were injured.
Joe Nelson dived twenty feet and arose
uninJured, going OUT a few minutes
later for a two-mile paced exhibition
Both Walthour and Nelson were
ahead of indoor records at four miles
made in sos, the first mile in 80 The
accident closed one of the closest and
best races ever seen in this city.
Walthour has many friends and ad-
mirers in Savannah, who will regret
to learn of his accident When he was
riding here he excited the wonder and
admiration of all who saw him by his
excellent work.
The accident will probably have the
effect of preventing Walthour from
carrying out his contract to ride
against horses on the Savannah track
on Nov. 20 Should it not prove so
serious as indicated by the above dis
patch, however, he may find himself
able to try his speed against that of
the horses that We're to be pitted
against him in relays.
