DICKINSON GETS BAIL.
Defence characterized as "FYimsy.', y,
but Judge Rice Lets Him Out.

Aiken. Sept. 14.-Judge Hayne f.
Rice, of the I'd Judicial Circuit, heard
two appeals for bail today; one the
case OF the State VS. Owens. charged
with the murder Of his landlord. Mr..
Sanders, the homicide occurring at
Williston, in Barnwell County. The
state was represented by Messrs Best
and Nienstein, the Hon. James E.
Davis Of Barnwell. and for years So
licitor of this circuit. acting for the
defendant. His Honor. Judge Rice.
refused bail.
The second and more interesting
case was that OF the State VS.. q. Moye
Dickinson, charged with the murder
at Bamberg last Thursday night of
j. w. Riley. The dead man and his
slayer are both prominently connected
in Bamberg County, and the tragedy
the details of which were exploited in
the newspapers of today, is generally
deplored by the community. The de-
fendant was represented by Mr.. S. c.
Aayfield. of the firm of Mayfield &
Free, attorneys of Bamberg, while
Solicitor Il. l. Gunter, of this I'd Ju-
dicial circuit, of which Bamberg
county forms a part, represented the
Sta and fought the appeal for bail,
on the ground that Mr. Dickinson'S
defense was too fimsy. However,
Judge Rice granted bail in the sum
of $1,000, and the prisoner will be
released from custody so soon as his
bondsmen shall be arranged and shall
qualify.

line for over Devore's head. There did
not seem to be a chance for him to
reach 1t. He turned with the crack of
the bat and at full speed started in pur-
suit. The effort seemed forlorn but just
as the ball was about to pass over his
head-he leaped into space and made the
catch. the catch which brought one of
the greatest ball games ever witnessed
to an end. DeNore must have been in

There were but two innings of the nine
that Marquard prevented any of the Red

to finish he was in position most of tie

In the second inning, for instance. Lew

emergency and pitched himself out Of the

could not hit when hits were needed that
caused their defeat. The Giants played
the best game they have ever put up in a

bases stood out in contrast with that of
their rivals. Buck O. Brien did not p:tcn
a poor game of ball, the score will
show. He improved as the game pro-

but after that he was brilliant and the
Giants did little or nothing with his de-
