Wolfe and Hansen Differ.
Hansen repeatedly denied holding the
conversation with Wolfe named in the
warrant for his arrest, but his admis-
sions concerning his relations with Wolfe
were such that County Attorney Magney
and Justice Britt declared that tho DIFF

essentials only.
Wolfe had previously testified that he
had o improper motive in his friendship

AUGUSTA DEFEATS
WINTHROP TEAM BY
IA TO 3 SATURDAY

A picked team from this city defeated
the st. Francis team of Winthrop Sat
urday afternoon on the Reuel Williams
field by a score of IA to 3. The game
was of a very one-sided nature as the
score shows, but in spite of this there
were times during the game when there
were exciting moments. Inability to hit
and many costly errors were responsible
for the defeat of the visiting team. A
good-sider crowd witnessed the contest
and although the game was not of big
league calibre it was interesting.
The elongated Eddie Pomerleau, who
was holding down right garden for tho
home team, landed on one of those
"foaters" that Loon served up to him
and sent the pellet nearly on top of
Malta hill for a home run.
Carey behind the bat handled the wide
ones with perfect ease and only one man
reached second alive, and that one was
the first man up, VINO went down on
peg slightly over the second baseman's
head.
The visitors scored their tallies in the
fifth, sixth and eighth innings on errors.
