SOX BUNCH HITS

Galatians Blank Giants Slam
ming Fromme's Delivery in
Fifth, Scoring Twice.

Portland. Ore. Nov. 19.-Chicago's
White Sox made it 10 all in their
games with the New York Giants, win
ming in the fifth inning by punching
hits on Pitcher Fromme- The score
was 2 to o.
McGraw's squad tapped Scott for
seven hits, but the swats were scat
tered and only once did the Giants
threaten. Scott frightened in the pinch
and pitched steady ball at all times.
Chicago repeatedly drove the ball to
Jim Thorpe in right field, but only
once did the Indian miss a chance.
That was in the fifth, when Speaker
dropped a fly which escaped Thorpe
when the Indian slipped. Speaker was
credited with hit on what would
have been an out on dry field. Thorpe
later redeemed himself by cutting off
what looked like a sure double by a
good throw to second after trapping a
hard drive which bounded off the
fence.
Following the game the players and
others accompanying the party at
tended banquet as guests of Portland
baseball enthusiasts. The affair was
in formal and 200 attended Score:

ISLAND CITY LEAGUE-

1t was the same old story last even
ing in the Island City Bowling league
and Brews and Colts COPIED of the
glories. Each swiped two games out
of the three and further than a little
change in the figures in the percentage
column for each team there was no
variation in the standing.
Each week the Brews have been
pulling the flag closer to their pole
and if the present run of scores con-
tinues it will not be long before they
have the title cinched.
At that, however, the tail enders
tied the Brews in the grand totals,
each rolling 2091. The 2600's, how
ever, punched their score in the last
game while the Brews won the first
two games by narrow margins.
Bredore of the 2600s made high
score with Az. In the first two games
he lowered near the 200 mark but
in the last he fell down to 12S. The
Colts copied the first and third games
from the Hubers.

Howell against G. w. Martin, where.
IN the complainant is suing the de.
PENDANT for damages in the sum of
$4,000, was for one-third that
amount, $4,000.
The suit grew out of a letter the
defendant wrote to his son at Culleo.
ka, wherein the complainant claims
that he was ilbeled. The case has
been on trial the two days proceed
ing and was one of the hardest fought
from a point of law that has been at
the Columbia bar for some time.
Messrs. PEBBLES & Forgey and Hatch
er & Hatcher represent the defend
ant, and r. S. Hopkins, j. c.. Voor-
HES and Judge Sam Holding repre-
sented the plaintiff, and every
point OF vantage was closely watch
ed and jealousy guarded.
The language of the letter is unfit
for print and contained some very
scurrilous references. The letter
was lost and was found by Howell,
who cannot read writing, and not
knowing who the letter belonged to
carried it to his wife, who read it
to him. This is the first trial of the
damage suit, but the defendant has
twice been tried under a criminal
charge on the same matter. In each
case there was verdict against him.
In the first trial an appeal was taken
and the indictment was quashed in
the circuit court on account of a de-
feet in it's caption. In the second
case there was a verdict and a SEN
tence was adjudged against him and
fine imposed. An appeal was TAX
Ell.
There were two indictments in the
criminal case and one of these cases.
and it is one of these cases that is the
subject of an application for a review
of the case which will be argued be-
fore the supreme court Saturday.
In the damage suit in which a YER
dict was, returned Thursday, the at
torneys are preparing a motion for a
new trial which will be argued Satur
day morning. The jury was R. M.

HANSON COUNTY LINE is
BURNED.
LOSSES ABOUT FIVE THOUSAND
Only Four Hundred Dollars of Insur-
ance and That Was on the Building.
Mules Had Been Sold for Delivery
Next Week.

Nineteen head of mules were burn
ed to death and two others badly if
not permanently injured in fire that
destroyed the barn of 10 B. Mckee
in the northern section of the county
Thursday night between 9 and 10
O'Clock.
In addition to the mules that were
burned there was also destroyed the
building, gasoline engine, lot of
farming implements, and a winters
supply of hay and corn, the aggre-
gate value of the losses reaching ap-
proximately $4,000 with only $500 in
surance, this policy being on the
building and was carried by Hendley,
Cochran & Thomas agency, Column
bia.
The fire was under such Roadway
when discovered that the doors of the
barn could not be forced open on ac-
count of the excessive heat, to release
the animals. There were two negro
tenants on the place, each living
within fifty or sixty yards of the barn
but they were not aware of the burn
ing until the flames burst through the
roof in the hay section
The burned animals had been sold
under contract by Mr. Mckee at $3.50
a round, and he was to have made
the delivery early next week. They
were in good condition and while not
of the larger sized animals, were
fine workers. The two that escaped
fell through the gates when they
were burned loose at one end They
were badly burned but it is thought
with proper care they will get all
right.
The origin of the fire was a mys-
terry.

Chancellor John Allison handed
down an opinion this morning in
which he upheld w. o. Farmer on the
suit brought recently in an attack on
the constitutionality of the interstate
anti-jug bill, passed by the last legis-
allure.
The court holds that a person may
order liquor without limit for his own
use; that a carrier may not be com
PEELED to give information concern
ing shipments and that a constance
may not be required to sign state
ment as to disposition of liquor re-
ceived.
The court does not go into detail
on all grounds on which the anti-jug
bill is assailed. The chancellor over
rules the motion to dismiss the bill
and an appeal to the supreme court
will be taken.
