| rewarded with splendid ga.ue of ball.
Alexandria won 6 to because the local
BOYS outlielded and outbatted Fairfax
!, Court House throughout. For six
innings the home team fielded without
an error OF any kind and the three
miscues finally charged against them
were e1cusable and cost nothing. Mar
tin pitched his first game for the Alex
audria club and performed creditably.
He was steady and kept the hits well
scattered except in the eighth, when
two scratch singles and home run
gave the visitors three runs. Scrivener
and SnoWden exchanged positions 10
the field and the shift worked adj
mirablY. Both men had plenty OF
work and did it well.
For Fairfax, Cross was the slugger,
double and home run being his con-
tribution to. the hit; column. Ford, at
second, and Waters on third, handled
some hard chances in fine style.
Bird" Trenary blossemed forth as
catcher and did not fade asdthe game
progressed. His work was good aud
he put snap into the whole team.
Fairfax scored in the second on a
pass to Cross and Ford's long two-bag-
ger to left. Ia the fourth Cross hit to
left for two but vas doubled at second
when Snowden made a fine running
catch of Woodyard's line drive over
third. With one out in the sixth Rich
ardson scratched single to third and
Waters hit to center. Ford forced
Waters. Pitts to Scrivener. and Pitts
threw Cross out at first. F. l.. Ford

error, but he could not advance. Two

to right. Gross then hit to left and the
ball climbed over the fence. A pass
and an error put two on in the ninth
but Martin famed the next batter.

when Trenary doubled to center. This
was the total until the sixth, though
Walker and ,Burrell singled in the
fourth and Scrivener in the fifth. In
the sixth Walker was showed around
on three wild throws. Burrell opened
the seventh with a single and was forced
by Pitts. Martin, who had stung the

sEUEAH AFRAID or BEATTIE

If Henry Clay Beattie, jr., is acqult-
ted of the charge of wife murder pre-
ferred against him by the common
wealth, there will be no further friend
ship between him and Beulah Binford /,
the girl for whose love the prosecution
charges that the crime was committed.
Sitting in her cell yesterday afternoon,
she not only expressed the hope that
whoever ia guilty will be convicted, "
but added that she was afraid OF Beattie
and could never be his friend again.
Il hope that Henry is innocent, "
said the girl, 'once would have gone
through fire at his word, but now |
would be afraid to 90 on the street with
him after dark. If he comes clear oil
the murder charge l hope never to see
him again. Moot all | want to get
away from Richmond where know
people will follow me on the streets.
I know absolutely nothing about the
murder;I do not even recall that Henry
ever mentioned his wife's name, to me.

Unconscious.

A fight took place yesterday after
noon on Fayette street between James

FRANCE AND GERMANY.

A cautious and firm semi-Ohicia
note was issued by the F'ench govern
ment yesterday afternoon relative tc
the negotiations with Germany, say
ing: =
Ambassador Cambon will return to
Berlin toward the end of August,
probably about the 28th. Meantime
he will have In Paris several Con-
ferences with the Premier, Min
lister of Foreign Aff,irs and
Minister OF the Colonies concerning
the subjects of his conversations with
Herr Won Kiderlen Waechter, the
German Minister OF Foreign Affairs.
Without endeavoring 10 PREJUDICE the
precise results, it is believed that the
difficulties will find q solution. It is,
however, true that such solution will
depend upon two conditions: first,
that the rights oi Francs sin Morocco
be recognized without dinlinution on
the part OF Germany and regulated
definitely 10 a manner to avoid all
future complications; and second, that
Germany reduce her territorial desires
in French Congo, which appear to be
manifestly excessive.

Keeping Cool The Electric Way is
pleasant and cheap, but there are many
other USES for the electric fan. Your
investment ia not for the hot months
only-it is an sli-the-year-round pTopo-
sition. AS a vsntilatlng device it keeps
the air healthy. 1t dries the cleansed
hair of Milady quicker than any other
way. It dries the cloths in the laundry
and removes frost from the windows.
1t circulates warm air throughout the
house in winter as we'll as it circulates
cold air in the summer. Ia the sick
room the electric fan is invaluable.
When the furnace or stove does not
draw well" nothing else helps like an
electric fan. This less.than-one-half-
cent an hour luxury finds good uses in
all seasons.
