Murder may be the charge
against William Ward, the tailor
who Is accused Of assaulting his
partner, George J. Easter, at the
corner of Second and Howard
yesterday morning.
Shortly after the controversy, In
which Easter was struck on the
left side of his head, he appeared
at police headquarters in search
of a warrant for Ward. He was
staggering and 1t appeared that
he was drunk. His constant com.
plants of pains in his head, how.
ever, caused him to be turned
over to Steward Dare in the emer-
gency hospital. II was thought at
first that the pains were caused
from bad bruise, but as Casters
condition grew worse 1t was dis
covered that he had clot of
blood on his brain.
He was removed to st. Luke's
hospital, but lost consciousness
and has not yet regained his
senses. 1t was announced at the
hospital this morning that his
condition is very critical and the
possibilities are that he may die
without ever regaining conscious

MORNING GAME

When Jack yerbout stands up and
clouts out a three-bagger Win man
on base Richmond wins There Is
nothing else to it, and the fates nave
arranged it that way. Therefore,
when Herbout did that bright and
particular thing yesterday. the morn
ing game was won. the game had
been carefully laid away IN the Ice
box before Jack wrote his name on
the honor list, but that didn't make
anv difference. The winning sign
came late, but it came, and when the
last Lynchburger died the score was
4 to 0.
A rather small holiday crowd OF p
900 people came to the ball park yes
terday morning to see one OF the pref
test exhibitions Of the season. and
every one Of them stood up and yelled
when the ball was really opened IN
the first inning as Wallace landed on
one Of Brookss benders for clean hit.
Bigbie, who hit like a hend all through
the game, followed WITH a. safe one to
left field which would have put wal
lace on third easily. Griffin over
reached himself in attempting to field
the hit. and muffed the whole busl-
ness. Before he could recover Wal
lace had scored, and Bigbie was safe
on second. An attempted steal to third
was cut short and ended the inning.
Easy for Colts.
Cowan caught the spotlight fair In
the face in the next box with a classy
hit to left field. He took advantage
of a sacrifice, and with the whole
Lynchburg team looking at him, calm
ly stole home Verbouts three-hagger

prised than Verbout, brought Shaw
