SUSPECTED as Accessory.

Columbia, Miss, July Ills
hair dyed and with wigs and
boys clothes in his possession,
man giving his name as Frank
A. Fuller was arrested three
miles from here this evening on
the suspicion that he is the &C.
cowplice popularity supposed TO
have snapped children with W:
G. Walters, alleged kidnaper OF
Robert Dunbar.
The accused came to this Sec
ton in a covered wagon, the same
as Walters used in driving thru
the country. He had been skulk-
ing in a littla cabin in the woods
in the daytime and making trips
to Columbia at night, it is said,
and it was these movements and
the fact that he avoided every
one and could not be drawn into
conversation that lead to his ar
rest. He had $500, a check book
in the name of w. G. Fuller, He
witt, Okla, and letters address
ed to J, B. Magner, Nina, Ark,
AMI his wagon bears the painted
inscription, &C. W. Petit. These
rather conflicting facts tend to
confirm the suspicious OF these
who believe the man is not all
that he should be.
At first the prisoner would say
nothing. Latter he declared he
came here from Oklahoma a few
days ago, and that he had mar
ried a girl at Nina, Ark, and
left her>the night of the marriage
and had not seen her since. Full
Ter will be brought here tomor-
row for q hearing.
The arrest was made by Dep
uty Sheriff J. B. Rawls, and the
prisoner was locked up for the
night in che house of Dick Davis,
q farmer.

HAMPTON IS WINNER!

Score of 20 to 0.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
HAMPTON, Va. November 2S.-Hamp
ton Institute defeated the Shaw Uni
versity foot ball team yesterday by a
score of 20 to O.
The first quarter was carelessly played.
Hampton's team went about it's work
in a listless manner, and not until
Shaw had the ball on Hampton s
4-yard line did the Institute eleven
awake.
Not more than three forward passes
were made by Hampton. all gains
being made by bucking the ball behind
splendid running interference. All Of
Hampton's team played well after the
first quarter. but the features of the
game were Gayle's general good work.
Marines all-around playing and the
work of Atkins, substitute halfback.
For Shaw. Harrington worked well
and Washington put up plucky fight.
In the early stages of the game Shaw
fought hard. but heavy tackling and
bucking Of Hamptons backs and ends
soon crippled the lighter team.

the Nineteenth Round.

LOS ANGELES, Cal, November %
Joe Rivers. the Los Angeles Mexican,
defeated Leach Cross, the New York
lightweight, in twenty rounds of fight
ing at the Vernon arena yesterday.
After two knockdowns in the fourth
and twelfth rounds Cross showed mar
veIous recuperative powers and fought
brilliantly but could not overcome the
lead Rivers won by consistent and
vicious milling.
Cross had a marked advantage in five
rounds. while Rivers led in thirteen.
Referee George Blake's decision was
popular with the crowd.
The most spectacular OF the twenty
rounds was the nineteenth. when Cross
apparently tired and beaten. electrified
his supporters by leaping after Rivers
and fighting him off his feet At the
bell the Mexican Was hanging on.
Rivers first kuockdown was scored in
the fourth. with short left hook to
the Jaw. Cross remained down for the
count of nine. Rivers repeated this
feat in the twelfth. fiooriug Cross with
right and eft swings 10 the face. Cross

BY ]. ED GRILLO.

| 1t develops that the deposing of Joe
| Tinker from the management Of the Gin
cinnati team was the direct result of his
| wanting TO allow Outfielder Johnny Bates
| to go to the Washington team Tinker
| took stand against retaining Bates
and urged President Hermann TO ge
waivers on him and make some sort Of
| a deal with Griffith. Hermann insisted
| that Bates be retained, refused to obtair
waivers and announced that Bates would
be found in the lineup of the Reds nex-
season.
Tinker made it plain that unless h,
could have the say of what players wer,
to be retained and let out. he did not wan
to be the teams manager, and as a re
suit the directors of the Cincinnati clut
agreed to release him.
Bates and Tinker had several squabble:
lasts summer. Bates did not play the
kind Of ball Tinker desired and the player
and manager were at swords ends mos,
| of the time. When Griffith expressed .
desire to make a trade for Bates. Tinker
was tickled at the chance of getting rid
of him, but when Hermann refused to
consent to such a transaction the breach
which resulted in Tinker Being deposed
resulted.
Fielding averages mean little 50 far
as percentages go. In the official
statistics of the American League in
only one position can the man who
tops the percentages be logically con-
Sidered one of the leaders at his job.
This is Heinie Wagner of the Red SoN
who leads the shortstopS with a mark of
.96J.
1t would be stretching il 10 say that
he was the best shortstop in the league.
He is a good one, but opinions waver

after them. They are punched well III

that the shortstops have IN advantage

Collins, generally considered the best
second sacker in the league, is very
close TO the bottom of that list with
an average of $50 against Berger's .9SS
On third. there is mess of small fry
on top. Opinions as to the best fielding
third baseman is very much divided.

tenth. Baker thirteenth and Foster tif-
teenth, or next to last.
The outfielders are rated even more er-
raticaily. Unquestionably Speaker and
Milan are the best fielding gardeners in
the American League. Speaker stands
twenty ninth and Milan thirtyfifth in the
list.
Milan was charged with twenty-four
errors last season, and IL is a safe pre-

a popular move with the patrons of the
