TWO GOOD GAMES IN
.Y.M.C.A. BASKETBALL
LEAGUE LAST NIGHT

In the senior basket bah league at
the Y. M. C. A. last night tho Wilson
Biggs defeated the Swans Downs by
the score of IS to 80, and the Karos
won from the B. F. Kings, 80 to 20:
Both games were exhibitions Of ~
tremely fast playing, all four tea as
having improved greatly IL an the
fine points of the game. The first
game, although the score showed a
difference Of Is points. was nip and
tuck throughout.
Until the last few minutes of play
the issue was very much in doubt.
The fast work of the Wilson-Biggs,
however, ended the suspense toward
the end of the game; the fancy goal
throwing of Long and McVoy, and the
pood work of the guards helping 20
do so.
The first half, ending with the score
% to 10 in favor of the Swans
Downs, seemed to indicate that this
team had a. slight advantage over
their opponents, but during the sec
ond half the Wilson Biggs increased

MIsTRIAL ORDERED
IN WEHME|ER CASE

After being out for three hours,
the jury was unable to reach YER
dict in the case of Mr.. and Mrs. C. C.
Wehmeier VS.. DR.. w. L. Address, for
$4,000. The case VIII go over to the
next term of court, in March.
The case was based on alleged in
juries claimed to have been suffered
by Mrs. @. c. Wehmeier, of West
Pensacola, in 1915, as result of al
legged careless treatment by DIR. w. l..
Address, and the sum of $4,000 was
asked.
The History of the Case.
In July, 1915, it appears, Mrs. Web
meier underwent major operation
at the Pensacola Hospital, the sur
geon being DR.. w. d. Mobiles. After
he discharged the case, DR.. Address,
the family Physician, continued the
treatment, which consisted of dress
ing the wound, an incision in the
abdomen. Becoming dissatisfied with
her condition, the family discharged
DR.. Address and summoned DR..
Mobiles again. This was on August
%, 1915.
Mrs. Wehmeier alleges that on
August "a, DR.. Address introduced
plain gauze (not the antiseptic iodo-
form gauze) into the wound, to
cleanse same, and used a pair of
blunted scissors to insert the gauze
with. She further alleges that DR.
Address punctured the intestine, caus-
ing subsequent corruption; and fur
thermore declares that he left piece
of the gauze inside her, which she as
serts, was only discovered on October
| 8, after DR.. Address had been dis
missed and while she was under the
treatment of DIR. Mobiles, who, it was
stated, discovered the foreign sub
stance when it worked up as a result
of an automobile ride she took on that
date.
On Three Counts.
The suit was based on three counts
% That DIR. Address had $50 care
lessly and negligently used and
handled said scissors that same
WOuhuSd anu UAulSSuI puAOtuiS Gu anu
penetrated the intestines." (2) That
scissors were not proper instrument.
(3) That he was guilty of gross negli-
gence in not removing the gauze
from the incision.
DR.. Address stated that he used the
scissors for convenience in steriliza
! ton, they being shorter than the reg
ular probe and easier to boil in the
pot available.
Drs. w. d. Mobiles, R. L. Bryan, C.
w. D'Alemberte, F. G. Renshaw, s. R.
M. Kennedy and ]. w. Hargis de-
clared that it was not improper to
use the scissors; that because of the
slippery and yielding nature of the
intestine, it was practically impossi-
bic for any blunted instrument to
penetrate it in the manner described
unless great and sudden force were
used.
One Is Thrown Out.
Judge Monroe, accordingly, ruled
that count should be thrown out
and the case was tried only on counts
/ and 8.

STACKHOUSE TO PUT TWO
HUNDRED ACRES IN PEANUTS

r. p. Stackhouse and Boyd Stack
house, accompanied by Tom Lane, Jr.,
spent Wednesday in Shellman and
Randolph county. The object of their
visit was to interview some of the
largest peanut growers in that section
and get their views on the peanut
crop as an investment. At Shellman
and in Randolph county live some OF
the largest producers Of peanuts in
the state, and among those visited by
the Americas party was DR.. W. S.
Terry, who planted 200 acres in pea
ruts last year, clearing $4,000 on the
crop, the hay taken from the acreage
more than paying the expense of cul-
tivation.
The visitors were highly pleased
with Dr. Terry's experience with pea
nuts and Mr.. Stackhouse, who had in
tended planting only a hundred acres
in peanuts, has decided to double this
acreage, devoting this immense body
of land wholly to the production OF
peanuts. There are other peanut
growers in Randolph county who re-
ported success equal to that attained
by DR.. Terry, although none OF these
planted so extensively ad he did. 1t
is stated planters from all over the
state are visiting Shellman and Ran
dolph county to get in touch with the
peanut grow ers there, and the crop
promises to become a permanently
profitable one through this entire sec
ton.
