Both games by agreement of the two man. agers were to go only seven innings. The first was terminated st the end Of the seventh inning, but in the sixth round of tbJ second game the fight ing bunch under Ed Greminger tied the score and it took the full nine innings to settle It the locals winning out in the ninth.
 It was Whitey Guese against Case In the first game, and while the hits were eyen-three and three-yet Guese outpitched Case and but for an unfortunate wild throw of Pepe's the game would have been 1 to In favor the Volunteers scored was in the first inning. Bsy walked and went to third on Wiseman's<two bagger. East hit an easy one to short and Pope would have had Bay at the plate but he made horrible throw to Hart and Bay and Wiseman both scored. The ball went back to the grandstand and East tried to go third but Hart threw out on a hit to Pope and while Seigle walked Hart threw him out at sec ond. There were two runs in, but the side should have been retired runless
 Guese drove in run in the third and the score should have been tied, only O'Brien didn't see Robertson block Guese. Hart had walked and Guese smashed out hit that went to the center field fence. Robertson ran in front of Guese as he rounded first and his speed was checked. only get ting to third when he should have had a home run, Hart scoring easily. With nobody out and a runner on third 1t looked like a pipe for another run, but East got Daly's line hit. kerwin and Whitenan ended it with inteld hits.
 Nothing more was done and 1t closed

Revolver in Her Hands Exploded
as She Stumbled and Fell.
DID NOT TAKE AIM.
Learned of the Killing When
Body Of Arm Was Found.
Little River Woman Describes
Incidents Relating to Murder.

Lyons, Kan, Sept. 17.-Interest in
the Brewer murder trial reached its
elimination. when Mrs. Myrtle
Brewer, the defendant. charged with
the murder of Fred Arm at Little
River on the night of May IL, took
the stand in her own defense. Mrs.
Brewers story followed closely the
lines of the story of the tragedy
printed at the time, except that she
claims, if the shooting was done by
her, 1t was accidental.
Mrs. Brewer Denies Murder Charge.
Mrs. Brewer said that on the night
of the killing she had put her little
daughter to bed and had gone down
stairs. When she returned the little
one met her at the head of the stairs
and told her man was looking in
the window. Mrs. Brewer said this
frightened her and she went to one
of her boarders and borrowed a re-
volver telling him she was afraid to
sleep in the room without a weapon.
Later she went down stairs again to
lock the back door and was attracted
BY noise in the yard. She stepped
| out, weapon in hand, and saw a man.
who are you?" she asked.
There was no response. She re-
peated the question, adding:
"Go on away or I will shoot"
Revolver Exploded as She Fell.
her, she said. This frightened her
and instead of shooting, she turned
and ran toward the house. She
stumbled, partly fell and the weapon
was discharged. She didn't aim and
did not know whether the bullet hit
anything or anybody. The man ran
away and next morning she heard of
the death of Fritz Arm. The body
was found outside the yard of her
home.
Audience Smiles at Woman's Story.
Persons from Little River smiled
incredulously at Mrs. brewers STORY
but it forms a strong defense. 1t is az
parent that Mrs. Brewers counsel are
preparing to argue that there is no
proof she killed Arm and that even if
she. did it was accidental. There wore
three cartridges in the revolver Mrs.
fred. she claimed, the Second she fired
accidentally and the thirdaremafned in
the gun. Yesterday this third bullet
was fired into a piece of wood, by di-
rection of the court, and will be weigh
ed and compared with the bullet taken
from Arms body.
Conductor Thompson Must Testify.
Sheriff Wilson was instructed to meet

procedure and indicates that the con-

is said to be the intention of the state |
to try to prove by him that 1t had been |
the custom of Mrs. Brewer and Arm %
visit other towns together, with a vi7sc |
to showing an improper intimacy in
their relations.
1t is believed the testimony is about
The arguments of counsel |
will be heard Saturday, and the case is
likely to go to the jury Saturday even
