CRAZY OR DRUNK,
FIRES into HOUSE
Unknown Negro Fires Into
The Home of John NJ.
Mil burn.

On last evening, about dusk
a negro man passed the residence
of Jno. M. Milburn on East Elm
street, and when about half way
between the Milburn residence
and that of E. S. Caruthers, stop
ped, turned around, and fired a
pistol at Milburn's house. The
family, Mrs. Beaufort and daugh-
ter were all sitting on the front
porch, and the ball barely missed
Miss Hazel Scott, tearing into
the window caseing just beyond
her. He then proceeded to come
on toward town and so far has
eluded the officers.
The women and children were
so frightened that they could not
give a description of him.

LITTLE ROCK
NEWS BUDGET
Items Gathered at the State
Capital By the Picayune's
Representative

Little Rock, July 81. E. Will
liams, assistant general attorney
for the Iron Mountain in Arkan-
sas, i'll paying a tribute to the
late julius Lesser, says he was
the most systematic man and the
quickest with figdr he ever saw
He says Mr.. Lesser was at fre-
quent meetings of the Democrat
ic convention held in the SOS,
one of the secretaries, and was
always delegated to count the
ballots, and never failed to have
the ballot ready to announce as
soon as Yell county delivered its
vote. The system used by JUL
ius Lesser was never before used
in a convention in Arkansas, nor
did any secretary use it after he
retired from Arkansas politics
when James P. Eagle was nomi-
mated for governor.

No photographs of convicts are
taken at the Arkansas penitenti-
ary, and an order will probably
soon be made by the penitentiary
board, by which full set of ap-
paratus will be installed, so the
prison will be up-to-date as any
in this particular.
DR.. A. C. Millar, appointed by
the penitentiary board to visit
the state farm and investigate
the conditions there and see if
there were any grounds for the
charges of excessive cruelty made
by DIR. Russell, penitentiary ply
sician, left this morning for the
state farm, where he will remain
a week or more in making the
investigation. He was accompa-
MED by DR.. Russell and Stenog-
rapher wells, who will bring
back a copy of the evidence TAX
en- at the farm.
Through evidence secured by
Postal Inspector Means, W. 0.
Owen of Eads, Tenn, has been
arrested and held by the U. S.
commissioner at Memphis, charg-
ed with embezzling from the
mails. Owens is alleged to have
visited Hot Springs last year,
and while there received letter
addressed to w. O.. Owen, and
containing postal order for $23.
/ He was identified and cashed the
order, which was drawn by the
office at Campbell, Mo. The or
der was intended for another w.
! 0. Owens, who was from the
Missouri town. Owens admitted
that he knew of no one in the
Missouri town or anywhere else
who would be sending him mon
ey, nor did he know the remitter,
but had it cashed on general
principles.

CRIME WAVE
IS STILL ON
In Little Rock Authorities
Are at a Loss to Find
the Guilty Ones.

Little Rock. July Still thu
wave of crime continues to sweep
over Little Rock. and the author
tiles are completely at a loss as
to the identity of the culprits.
Arrests are made daily. but
though convictions are had,
there is nothing to fasten upon
the prisoners any connection
with the many crimes which are
going unpunished, as the crime
for which they are convicted al
ways turns out to be their first
offense. Good hauls are being
made daily by the porch climbers
and sneak thieves, who watch
for an open door and then ram
sack the house beneath the nose
of the occupants. Some of the
crimes are directly tracable to a
boy who has recently escaped
from the State reformitory, but
who knows the plain clothed
police so we'll as they cannot get
within blocks of him. He has
defied capture and has not left
the city tor full two weeks. The
freak of all the burglarities CON-
mitted recently has just been
discovered in the raid upon the
house at Eighth and Welt streets.
The burglars removed a transom
from a rear door to get into this
residence, ransacked the house,
but took nothing but the tran
som, which has not yet been To-
Gated by the officers. So free is
the robbing that chief Mcmahon
has issued a general order to the
police to bring in every vagrant
or suspicious character, and
strict will be the handling of the
cases in the police court so as tc
rid the city of this worthless
class.

DARTMOUTH WON.

Dartmouth won from Vermont in the first game of the season, II to 0. The home team did not have a walkover, as Vermont put up an ex- ceptionally good fight. Ingersoll' s playing was the feature. In the sec ond half he ran 70 yards through the entire Vermont team for a touchdown.
 Dartmouth's other score came in the first half when blocked kicks and an exchange of punts brought the ball to Vermont's 25-yard line. Marks was pushed over after Haw- ley and Ingersoll had brought the ball to the two-yard line. Captain Kennedy, Sherwin and Pavear excell- ed for the home team, and Thomas and Watkins played well for Yer mont.
 It was expected that "Sal'' Slavin would be in the lineup of Vermont but his late arrival at the college perhaps will keep him from partici- pating in the contests for week or more. Buckmiller and Zwick, right guard and fullback for Vermont, are Naugatuck young men. Zwick left Naugatuck high school only a couple of years ago while Buckmiller has played at different times with the Naugatuck town team
 Ryan of this city evidently has first call on the quarterback position at Dartmouth for he started the game yesterday. Ed Herr, also of this city and graduate of Dart mouth, is coach of the Vermont eleven.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1908-10-01

the Coe Brass team of Torrington, struck a snag in the managemeht yesterday when he learned that the Torrington team refused to go to Hartford Saturday for the second game of the series. According to the original plans, one game was sch heduled for last Saturday, one for this Saturday, and a double-header was to be played during bridge week. The Torrington manager de- cided he could pick up little more money by playing game in Winsted on Saturday and a game has been arranged for that place, Jerry Con nell having charge of the picked nine. Manager Rorty got the Tor rington magnate on the phone and told him that if he did not stick to the original agreement the series would be called of as he did not in- tend to stand for such methods. AS the result of his initial appearance as manager. Rorty figures that he IS about 5 cents ahead of the game. He expects to have the Middletown Athletics at Hartford to take the place of the Coe Brass team.

AFTER THE DEER.
Maine Hunters Started Out With
 Guns To- Day.

Bangor, Me, Oct 1.-Hundreds of sportsmen went into the woods throughout the state to-day in quest of the two deer which they are allow ed to kill under the laws of the state between now and December 15, close time for this year having expired at midnight last night There were, a few sections of the state, however, where the open season Is not so long, and the killing of but one deer law full, and still others where continual ban is on against the hunting or kill ing of deer.
 No definite estimate as to the mum. Der of licensed hunters already in the woods Is possible as yet, but it is be lieyed that there will not be as many sportsmen this season as there were last year, when several thousand li- censes were issued to nonresident hunters in addition to all the na- tiyes.
 It is expected that in proportion to the number of hunters who go to the woods the number of deer killed will be about the average, as the animals are reported as being as numerous this year as at any time fin the past ten years.

THE SPORTING NEWS.
BASE BALL
YORKS BACK
 IN FIRST PLACE
Giants Trim Quaksrs--Deiroit i, Still Leading the American
 League.

The New Yorks showed yesterday that they aren't the people to let up under pressure and that they are stiff of spine. They took game full of close calls from the Phillies, making two runs in the first inning and making that small number suf- ficient to win. It took alert and stanch playing on the defense to prevent the Phillies from making two or more runs, but the home team hung on so tenaciously to theii slim lead that It carried them through. They played gritty ball. and that fact was in evidence more than once when the Quakers were in fair way to make runs. Donlin played the stellar role. Twice his lightninglike, accurate throws from deep right field cut off runs. Grip pied and lame as he was, he fielded his position perfectly and did great work with the bat. Five thousand spectators gave him notable ova- tions and made him acknowledge them by doffing his cap. His injured leg evidently ,pained him a great deal, but he just couldn't keep out of the game.
 An unsteady spell on the part of the Phillies In the first inning lasted long enough for the New Works to make two runs. Ames did some very effective work with men on bases in the latter part of the game, and Earl Moore was sealed book to the New Works after his wabbly start. A couple of double plays were factors in New York's holding the enemy off, and throughout the New Yorks were just well enough versed in the art of doing the right thing at the right time to maintain their advantage. That was pleasant to contemplate after the game, but during the game players and specta- tors were in an uncertain and un- easy frame of mind as to what their ultimate fate would be.
 The Philadelphia's run. in the eighth was made by Dooin, who scraped the left foul line with two baser and was batted home by Moore. There wasn't anybody out. but Grant forced Moore and Knabe and was run down in the lane in the second part of the eighth after an- nexing third by means of two-base thump and Needhams sacrifice. The score: .. sz

THE .PUGILlSTS
MORAN DECLARED
 WINNER OF FIGHT
'Festherweisbt Battle Went the
 Full Twenty Rounds Last Night.

~ San Francisco, Oct 1.-owen Moran, English featherweight. last night won the decision over Eddie Hanlon, lightweight, after twenty rounds of fighting. Despite dis parity of eight pounds in favor of the Californian, Moran had the bet ter of the fight from start to finish and only in one round did Hanlon have the advantage.
 Moran started In to make his fight from the tap of the initial gong and kept constantly arter his opponent until the contest ended. In the very first round he dazed Hanlon with a rapid fusilade of left punches to the face which he varied with solid rights to the body. Hanlon was no match in cleverness for the shifty Briton and soon realized that his only hope of ultimate victory lay in close range fighting.
 Moran, however, was not caught mapping and kept up merciless pep pering of Hanlon's face. In the sev- enth round he had the blood flowing in streams from the Californian's s nose.
 In the thirteenth round, the only one in which, Hanlon had any ad- vantage, the Englishman was caught while in a neutral corner. Hanlon shot a wicked right to the stomach that sent Moran reeling into the mid dle of the ring. Hanlon followed this advantage with a couple of face smashes. That was as far as he got, for the Briton covered up and when the round terminated he went smil- ingly to his corner.
 Moran in the succeeding rounds hit Hanlon almost at will. Hanlon's s nose was badly cut, his lips split and both eyes were all but closed. Han lon gave a remarkable exhibition of gameness and despite the heartbreak- ing punishment that was being meted out to him he was always fighting back hard and several times forced the Englishman to stall.
