While driving across the railroad track
at Mill street in Moorestown on Thursday
evening, the east bound express struck
thrown violently to the ground. He re-
ceived bad scalp wound, a fractured
knee and numerous other cuts and bruises.
He was brought to the Burlington Coun-
pieces and the wagon was smashed. Mr..
Leworthy was very deaf and of course
could not hear the approaching train. He
was IA years of age, retired merchant
and widower. He is now recovering.
Since notices have been posted prohibit
ing the playing of base bali on the lot in
the rear of the Jail, the committee on
court house and grounds, it is said, has
given permission for the lot to be used for
two games a week, in order to appease
the clamor of the followers of the game,
who consider it an innocent and harmful
sport. This latter would be the case if
conducted properly. The allegation is
made that too much profanity is used and
another complaint is that adjoining prop
erty is injured by boys jumping fences
after balls, it being next to impossible to
keep up garden. Then again shutters
must be closed permanently through the
summer to protect the windows Those
people who suffer from these facts have a
genuine grievance, as the following state
ment from property owner in that neigh
borhood will show. On Thursday he said
IF the authorities allow ball playing
there and can dispose of my real estate
will move out of Mount Holly. have
several broken panes of glass in my house,
and as it isn't safe to keep the shutters
open, there is no use putting the glass in
until next fall. If any member of the
committee on court house and grounds
was annoyed by ball playing as l am,
they would think differently over the
matter"

SENATOR'S BATTING AND
FIELDING AVERAGES
Jack Doyle Has Played Perfect Game
Since Joining Wash
ington.

The greatest surprise in connection
with the work OF the Senators during
the past week. excepting. OF course. the
Saturday victory at Philadelphia. with
a greatly weakened club, was the hit
ting of Wolverton In the Boston games.
when he secured four hits out OF eight
times at the bat making batting aver
age OF 500. which was the bert work
accomplished in the hitting line by any
of his associates, although Lew Drill.
who participated in a larger number OF
games, is as a matter of fact entitled to
rs much praise as Wolverton for his
average of .429 Is as much an accom-
plishment.
Just so. TOO. with Carriclt. who looms
up as hitter in the games in which he
played, with a record equallIng Drills.
Jack Doyle has been hitting at a 1856
clip since he Joined the team, while
Ryan and Carrick have both been giving
good accounts of themselves in the bat
ting line.

Ing OF two pairs CT trousers. two vests.

tween the hips and shoulders. and from
the limbs. the flesh had been stripped.

by buzzards or animals.
Near the body was bundle. evidently
used as n pillow. In 1t were found
boOh, sung pooh, lNO pIU-
tographs. one that OF a woman. and the
other group. There was also found a

violin, and being "fddler," as he ex-
pressed IL, he purchased the instrument
for $50. The marvellous sweetness OF its
tone had impressed him. but he was no

The case is peculiar one, and public

where his father lives. He and his
partner were doing big business on the
Fourth. Half an hour before the shoot
Ing they had been attacked by three men
who attempted to rob them.
At the Crystal Palace. Taddai was ma

Gonly the partner was set upon by Hart
man. There was scuffle.
Fearing robbery Taddai shot Hart
man. Then Re fired upon Stitzel AMI
Trayer, both of whom are now dead. The
three are charged with being the ones
who attempted the first hold-up.
Until the wounded men fell those who
saw the shooting with its accompani-
ment of fireworks all about thought the
Italian was celebrating. The most re
markable feature of the affair Is that
three mon, supposed to be attempting
a holdup. were fatally wounded by the
shots fired and no bystanders or inno-

FOR 0LYMPIAN GAMES.
Elaborate Plans Are Being Made to
Eclipse All Former Contests.

Henry ]. Furher, jr., OF Chicago, pres
ident of the International Olympian
Games Association. is now on his way to
Europe. where he hopes to interest rep
-esentatives of leading nations in the
exhibition which is to be held in Chi
cago In 1904, under the auspices OF the
organization OF which he Is the execu-
tive head. He is accompanied by Judge
John BaSon Payne, La Verne w. Noyes,
and Benjamin Roscnthal. members of the
ioard of directors.
The efforts Of the association will be
principally directed along these lines:
l. Worlds championship contests In
standard sports, including field and track
athletics. racing. eQucstrianism, fencing,
Jicyciing. yachting. swimming, and all
such games as are international in char
acter.
2. Exhibitions of sports peculiar to va
rious countries of the world. Under this
bead will fall baseball, cricket, Japanese

yielding; French savate. or boxing with

Fielding Averages for Five Games.
Doylc's Fine Record.

Doyle has yet to spoil his record as
a perfect fielder. His work both in the
field and at the bat since joining the
Washington team has been about as
good as anybody could ask for, and
every local follower of the game hopes
that he may be able to keep up the
good work when the club returns home
Thursday for quite protracted stay,
during which time 1t will meet all Of
the Western teams and cne or two Of the
Eastern division cl,bs.
The fielding averages of the different
players up to Saturday night were as

Pledged for So on Day of Theft.

The recovery of the instrument and
the indubitability of its Identification
gave Flechter more hope, and he press
ed hard for the retrial which, in the
meantime, had been ordered by the APP
pellate Division. In the taking of new
testimony before Recorder GoT. Fox
who had sold the violin to Dooley, pro-
duced his books, which showed that the
instrument had been pledged on the very
day OF its disappearance for 81 though
he was unable to say by whom. The
taking OF this testimony was for the
purpose OF eliciting new evidence which
Flechter's lawyers claimed to have dis
covered During its progress the vio-
lin was taken apart in court by an ex-
pert who pronounced 1t q genuine Strad-
ivarius, and the one which Professor
Bott had brought to this country.
In the tendency of the new trial the
instrument was held as evidence, Mrs
Springer being recognized as its valid
owner. II is understood that Mrs. Bott
has paid Mrs. Springer $3.50. and that
she will receive from the Brooklyn wo-
man a release OF her claims to the vio-
lin. The dismissal OF the Indictment
against Flechter is natural conse
quence, as there Is no proof that he had
any connection with the disappearance
OF the violin. while the fact that II was
permitted to lie In a pawnbroker es
tablishment and to be sold as an unre
deemed pledge for a pittancc is regard
ed as additional proof Of the indicted
mans innocence.
