How They Stand.

Newport treated the Pine knot,; awful mean Saturday afternoon and didn't even let them score. Three to nothing, w2s the dope the yellow slip at Vego's popular pool room gave out. Kid Welch was on the firing line and pitched good ball, allowing only five safe swats, but Robinson for the Pearl Diggers was invincible and two lone hits was all that the Berryites could get. In addition to their poor stick work the Pine Knots had a bad as- sortment of three errors to their credit and these were largely re- sponsible for the loss of the game
 The Pine Knots open at Forest Park Monday afternoon for series of four games with Argenta and as the fans are ball hungry big crowd will be present. The season ends Labor Day and as things now figure out on the dope sheet Hot Springs has the rag in walk with the rest of the league as the percentage column now stands.

WIFE GIVES OUT
 IMPORTANT CLUE

Atlantic City, N J., Aug. 29.--Chas. 5, Roberts, who was mysteriously shot
 on the Boardwalk last Wednesday
 night, ts still alive in the Atlantic City hospital, but is very weak. The bullet which penetrated his liver. it is
 feared. caused q wound which may
 ri ove fatal.
 There is a belief that the solution
 lnS will follow in the investigl ltion of the movement of w. $. q. Williams on Tuesday and Wednesday, night a'- ter his return from Baltimore from the sanitarim, where he had be,1 for seven weeks. The police are at work on the case. The fact that Williams
 had been in sanitarium undergoing treatment and was not abroad was re- vealed to the police by his wife, who was with Roberts in a rolling chair at the time of *h. shooting.
 Two disclosures just made by the negro who was pushing the chair in which Roberts and Mrs. Williams were riding, are c% sidered imrOrialt b1 the police.
 When questioned with regard to the conversation which passed between Roberts and Mrs. Williams during the
 chair ride. Jesse Jackson, the negro. said:
 II did not hear anything except one remark of the gentleman heard him say just before the man with a mask came up to us. You have brok- en my heart l did not hear what the
 lady answered"
 In addition to the fact first related by him with regard to the shooting, Jackson now says that the masked stranger applied an epithet to Roberts. and ordered him to get out of the chair,
 The negro also insisted that he heard no demand for money following the first order, to hold up yoar hands.

For some reason, it is said, he took $27.000 from his stealings an tossed it into the cash receipts foY the day
 When the days receipts were counted this $27,000 excess cash was found. It could not be accoonted for The mystery surrounding the finding |of the cash wass not dispelled until the theft of the 73,000 was discovered Then the wrapper on the package Jf S500, GOO came to light It was seen that the markings had been chan"ed.

When Newport was here before un- der the management of Bob Shelton We could say very little for their ball playing other than that they were the worst kickers and rowdies that ever played on the local lot Since Dad Ritter has taken the management they play like an entirely new set of men, and too much credit can not be given Ritter for this.
