The Wilmington baseball club continues to play
good ball much to the satisfaction Of those who have
friendly interest in the fortunes of the home team
In this connection wish say that the management
of the club is not receiving from the Wilmington pub
lie the full measure Of support it deserves after hav
ing put such splendid team at work on the diamond
We trust that there will be widespread interest
in the games from this time forward to the end that
the management not only may be able to meet

H desire among prominent Republicans and Pro-

shall get together and make common cause against
the Democrats Last Fall 'le Cleveland Leader which
is owned by Dan Hanna was an earnest supporter OF
the Progressive movement Hanna himself con-
trbuted $17700O TO the support of the Progressive
Under his direction the Leader has come out
in an earnest demand that the Republicans and the
Progrossyes compose heir differences get together
and organize to fight the Democrats and drive them
from power.
One of the best signs Of the times is that in Con-

the Progressyes last November the Progressves have
returned TO the Republican party. Tammany finds It.

The many hair-raising ghost stories
that now make the rounds of the Brit
ish press as result of the eXamina-
ton of an allegedly murdered million
aire, recall at least one story of an
apparation that got into the British
courts and was publicly tried to
finish.
One of the most circumstantial ap-
partitions was that of "Old Bootys
ghost" which was the subject of an
action in the Kings Bench Court, OF
London, in 1888. II arose from
statement of a certain Capt. Barnaby
that, when shooting rabbits on the is
land of Stromboli. in the Mediterran-
can, on Friday. May is. 1887. he had
seen Old Booty, his next door neigh
Dor, running into the burning crater
there, pursued by the devil Mrs.
Booty, the widow, had the captain ar
rested, and claimed thousand pounds
damages for what he had said. But
when the case was heard It was
proved that Old Booty actually died
within two minutes of the time he
was said to have been seen on Sfrom-
boil Island. and that all the circum-
stances Of the apparition were noted
in the logbooks of three ship captains
present On Old Booty's clothes being
produced in court they were identified
by the witnesses for the defense as
those worn by the man who iran
into the burning crater" Mrs. Booty
lost her case, the Judge remsrking;
"The Lord have mercy upon me and
grant that | may never see what you
have seen. One, two. even three wit
nesses may be mistaken. but thirty

officer may reduce q sentence or re-
nit 1t altogether.
A general" courtmartial has a
colonel as president, while dis
trict' court-martial is presided over
by major. and a "regimental" one
by a captain. The number OF mem
bers varies from nine to two. and one
may act in this capacity until he has
completed a certain amount of SER
vice. When an officer is being tried
every member must be at least equal
in rank to himself
With view to giving the accused
fair play. the members Of the court
martial are, as far as possible. Sc
lected from different regiments. The
prisoner also is allowed to engage
counsel. As however private only
draws a shilling day, this luxury
usually is beyond his means.
IL Is doubtful if any British legal
celebrity has had such a varied career
as Sir Rufus lsaacs, the attorney gen
eral of England, whose appearance
before the Marconi committee has
aroused so much interest. As a youth
OF II he shipped on a Scottish trading
Nessei, the Blair Athol, to Rio de Ja-
nero, with a cargo Of coal. AS he
n.imselI has put it, he had to work
hke a niger in more than one re-
spect, and as soon as the shin reach
ca It's destination he ran away. He
was caught, however and brought
pack ana was so sick of the sea when
ne returned to London that he tried
commercial life, first as an agent for
ms fathers firm OF produce merchants
ana later as a clerk on the Stock EN-
chanee IL was while working i'm this
capacity that he began reading for the
law with what result all know AS
a matter of fact. the knowledge ne
gained at sea and in business proved
valuable to him. for it was his mas
terry or mercantile and financial af-
ialrs that first enabled him TO win a
distinctive place at the bar.
Probably no man derived bigger
income from the legal profession than
Sir Rufus, and some idea of the value
piaceu upon his seryicess may be
gathered from the fact that i'm one
case IN which he was leading counsel
lour years ago, and the trial of which
lasted twenty-one days. he received Il
retaining fee Of 5000 pounds and a
refresher of 200 pounds a day. II is
estimated that his private legal prac
tice was bringing him in over 10000
pounds year when he became attor-
ney general in 1910
Sir Rufus capacity for work is one
OF his most remarkable characters
tics He can do with four or FIVE
hours sleep per night, and has been
accustomed to rising regularly al A
O'Clock every morning. Before he he
came attorney general it was his habit
to read briefs for hours before break
fast, and after attending the courts
all day would go to the House Of Com
mons and throw himself into Parla-
mentary work as though the day were
just begun. II was for this reason
that he became known as the man
who never tires"

KILLED
BY KICK Of
HORSE
Children Victims in Accidents in
Different Parts of City at
Nearly Same Hour,

A 9-year-old bov was killed out
right and a 5-year-old boy received a
fractured skull which probably will
prove fatal, by being kicked by n
horse and a mule Tuesday afternoon.
The two accidents occurred in diff
ferent parts of the city less than half
an hour apart.
Robert Stewart, the boy who was
killed, was the son Of Mrs. Belle
Stewart, of 63 Ella street. He was
riding a horse and as he turned the
corner of Wells and Stewart streets
the animal became frightened and
threw him.
The boy fell directly in FRONT Of the
frightened horse and the animal
whirled and kicked him in the head,
killing him instantly.
Jeffe Barryhn. years old. was
kicked in the head by a mule belong
ing TO his father while playing in the
front yard of his home at sos Marietta
street.
IHS ClLllu was SilLlH6 III tiIt grass
playing with mis- toys, and the mule
was wandering around eating grass.
The animal came close to the boy.
and the child reached out and placed
his hand on the hind leg of the mule.
The animal kicked, one of his hoofs
striking the child just above the left
eye, causing a fracture of the skull.
The Barryhill boy was hurried to
Grady Hospital, where surgeons say
there is little hope for his life.

Declaring that Joshua B. Crawford

tween Mrs. Mary Belle Crawford and
Fred Lumb New York barber, ].
S. James. attorney for the heirs-at-
law to the $250,00O estate, announc-
cd Tuesday afternoon that he would
swear out a warrant for Lumb's ar
rest on the charge of murder and
have him brought back TO Atlanta
Dor prosecution.
"Lumb and Mrs. Crawford planned
this whole thing in Florida" said
James. "They planned to turn the
estate into cash and get away. Lumb
visited Mrs. Crawford in Atlanta be-
fore her husband died. He was here
when he died, and remained in the
city until two months after the tu-
Neral. We have evidence that will
convince any fair-minded. jury this
pair plotted to murder the old man,
and we will produce 1t at the proper
time

the arrest of Lumb on a charge OF
murder this afternoon. If he remains
in America we will bring him to At
lanta to prosecute him"
q would cut my throat from ear to
ear before l would degrade myself
by marrying this woman" is a re-
mark made in reference to Mrs.
Crawford by Joshua B. Craw-
ford before their marriage, accoding
to the testimony of Mrs. L. c. Dill
,lingsly Tuesday afternoon in the civ
Il hearing of the s25O.00O will case.
Mrs. Dnlingsly was one of the wit
nesses called to establish the conten-
ton Of the other heirs that the mar
rage was forced upon Crawford, and
that he was not in his right mind
when the ceremony was performed.
BY another witness it was sought
10 prove that Crawford at this time
was almost constantly intoxicated,
and to set up the probability that he
was in this condition when he entered
into marriage.
Mrs. Dillingsly lived at the Craw-
ford residence on West Peachtree
Street before Joshua Crawford's
death. She recited a number Of con-
versations she said she had with him,
and asserted that Mrs Crawford at
one time attempted to choke a Miss
Scott, the sister of the witness.
She said that on two different occa-
sions her sister was awakened in the
night by smothering sensations as
though something had been placed
over her face, and that each time she
saw Mrs. Crawford returning to her
bed.
