She is famed for other things-was fined
$25 for slapping the undersherin in

Kate Hoffman. and is considered clever
at concealfng what she wants conceal

district court thatsu pints of whisky on
her bookcase never attracted her at

Mr.. and Mrs. Will Briggs, alias Mr..

were enjoined from selling liquor at
their home, S14 Quincy street. Alleg-
ing violation Of the Injunction, the
county attorney brought suit today in
the first division. Having heard an
hours testimony, Judge Dana took the
case under advisement.
Prior to her examination. Mrs. Briggs
challenged the veracity of the county
attorney. When she was called to the
stand, she dragged after her stalwart
son in Norfolks and. placed him ma
ternally on her knee. She is strenuous

perturably over the facts that liquor
was discovered on her premises in a
secret vault between the floor and CELL

despised bookshelf.

Mrs. Briggs responded it came from

he has picked up among the semi pro
teams of Topeka. Among these re-
cruits are Banish, the pitcher who
won distinction in the championship
series played here last fall; Heron.
an outfielder, and Stewart, another
pitcher. All three men made enviable
records during this championship
series as well as during all of the sea-
son of 1913, during which they met q
large number of teams in different
parts of the state. None of these men
have played professional baseball but
all look promising.
Among some of the other players Is
an outfielder named Dale. who played
under Abbott when the latter vas
manager Of the Lyons club OF the
Kansas State League in 1911. Dale
was sold to Topeka at the end OF that
season but was not fast enough for
the Western League. He is an excel
lent hitter. Tommy Griffin. a pitcher
who formerly was with Wellington OF
the Kansas State League and also
is another. Griffin will be one of
Abbott's best pitchers. Hensling. a
recruit with the Topeka club at the
end of the 1912 season. is another.
Abbott believes he will make good at
shortstop and thinks he will be among
the best hitters on the club.

Through his knowledge of the abil-
