GEORGE and JOE BOYS
have SPEEDY 1915 TEAM

The George and John team, OF New
Castle, is working out the kinks and Is

Two months ago Johnnie Berry. we'll
known to the baseball fans, was elected

be has been going along slowly but
surely signing players until now he has
secured the John Hancock of some OF
the most prominent ball players in the
State, including Big Joe Sullivan and
Bratton, as pitchers, and Gormley and
Dick McGrory as catchers. II will be
remembered that McGrory last season
gave the finest exhibition Of hard hitting
and catching seen in New Castle for
mary a moon. Gormley can take care
OF first in fine style until called upon
to receive the hot ones.
Joe Armpriester. the old reliable, will
cover second with a good understudy in
Paul Bowen. II Is expected that Nc
Daniel will play short. Third base IS
giving Johnnie more worriment than all
the other positions. as Carbon, the man
he depended on, is still undecided where
to plar. The outiield will be well taken
care of by Johnnie Gers, the boy who
played all last season without an error;
Auld, the boy with the whip; Ferguson
Osie Hance, Taylor. Padden, Freebury
and Proud. II also is expected that
listle Joe Iobin, the star of the old Holy

Emmitt McGrory, Tommy Leonard and
Samuel Lynch. The latter was athletic

ton. Slayton went to see Medora
Baptiste and, returning, said she talk.
ed SO fast he could not get her state
inents, but that he would return with
a stenographer, and he asked permits
sion of Mr.. Smith to go to Woodley
plantation to take some pictures.
The request was granted and slay.
ton returned few days later with a
young stenographer. Mr.. Smith and
his family were in North Carolina at
this time.
Slayton met Mrs. Morts-ner Guerin.
who lives with her husband in the old
johnson residence, and persuaded
her to-take the young woman in for
the night. saying he would stay with
Medora Baptiste. The next morning
slayton and the young woman. with
Mrs. Guerin. started to visit the tomb
OF Governor johnson, which is about
300 yards from the house, but on the
way he said the young woman knew
how to operate the camera, and he
would go back and look at the barn.
instead of going to the barn, he went
to the residence, and was in the back
room where the stairs are while Mrs.
Guerin and the young woman were
trying to get a picture of the tomb,
which occupied considerable time for
some reason or other.
Money in House.
Finally Slayton came out of the
house and called to them, and inform
ed Mrs. Guerin there was money on
the place, and il she would give him
permission he would lay hands on it.
Mrs. Guerin told him she did not own
the property, whereupon he said all
of the johnson heirs were dead and
offered to divide the treasure with
Mrs Guerin. She told him to wait
until her husband came from the field
at noon. While waiting, Slayton told
Mrs. Guerin he had got his informa-
ton from niece of Governor John
son, who was in an insane asylum
and muttered about money under the
third step of the stairway.
When Mr.. Guerin came in Slayton
took the matter up with him, and
they looked under the step and Slay-
ton said Some one has been here al
ready"
He them, according to the state
ment of Mr.. Guerin, appeared to be |
anxious to get away, and was driven
back to Medora Baptiste's place, .
from which he was sent to the Frisco
train.
The young woman who was with
Slayton is said to be very prominent I
in Mississippi and was released on
BOND last Wednesday. Governor John.
son is reputed to have been very
wealthy and there are those who be-
lieye there was something in the NUT
terlngs about money being concealed
under the stairway.
