Assaulted In Woo ds

Charles H. Bryant, of the Fifth dis
trict, is in Jail awaiting hearing on
the charge of assault with intent to
ravish" upon Laura M. James, of the
same section. The girl, who is about
Is years of age, had taken her mother
and sister to the North East station
Tuesday morning and was driving
bac khome, along a lonely road below
North East. Bryant met her and got
in the buggy with her. At a lonely
point in the road he drove the team
into the woods, saying something
about 'fine huckleberries in here
He then attempted the assault and
was prevented by the sudden driving
up of Robert Donnelly and Frank
Bryson who hearing the noise rushed
upon the scene. The girl was so
frightened that she objected to con-
tinuing on her journey home until
Messrs. Donnelly and Bryant assured
her they would keep the man in GUS
tody until she was well away. Bryant
himself was arrested in a nearby field
later by Sheriff Morgan and lodged
in Jail. He has retained Joshua Clay
ton as his counsel and will be given a
hearing some time today Saturday..

While Mrs. Nicholas Gruss"meyer
was picking berries Wednesday after
noon near Leslie, she was attacked by
swarm of yellow jackets and died
shortly afterward before the arrival
of DR.. H. A. Cantwell, of North East,
who was Immediately summoned. Mrs.
Grussemeyer and her daughter-in-law
with some others were in the field
picking blackberries, when they stir
red up the yellow jackets nest. The
daughter-in-law became mentally un-
balanced by pain and shock combined,
while the other members of the party
escaped injury. The physician believes
that apopleXy induced by shock was
responsible for the unfortunate wo
mans dying so soon after the yellow
jackets attacked her. She was Sc
years of age and the wife of Nicholas
Grussemeyer, who is employed at the
Wilmington abattoir, also mother of
Joseph p Grussemeyer, of the Will
mington Police Department.

BASE BAIL

The West End A. G. Of Elkton. has
replaced Aberdeen in the Tri-C County
League and played the regular sche-
dule with Elkton on Elkton's grounds
last Saturday. 1t was one of the best
ana fastest games seen here this sea-
son, Elkton nosing out by one run. In
deed, West End would have had the
score tied up In the ninth inning, but
for the fact that w. Marcus in scoring
from second base failed to touch third
and was called out by the umpire.
That same Marcus, however, put up a
remarkably fine game at short stop,
covering lots of territory and having
seven assists and 10 put-outs without
an error. Ward was in the box for
West End and allowed Elkton only 5
hits, while Joe Clay moved down the
west Enders, allowing them four hits.
Elkton's winning Sturday, while Elk
Mills was losing to Oxford (12 to AZ
ties these two clubs for second place.
Newark won from Rising Sun Is to
A and it looks as if she mad stran-
gle hold on the pennant.

grounds by score of 5 to /, and thus

On Friday afternoon of last week
the North East Juniors won from the
Elkton North Streeters ON the Elkton

the Elk Mills Juniors by 10 to 7. They
played return game at Elk Mills on
Thursday afternoon and were defeated
On Tuesday afternoon the West End
Juniors kept up their winning streak
by defeating Johnny McGraw Terrell's
North Street All-Stars by score of
