Playing a game of real ball is en-
tirely different from fungo hitting,
chasing around the bases, jumping
into sand pits and Tipping the medi-
cine ball. A real contest brings out
the fine points in the men and leaves
no chance for bull Thus it was
that Billy planned, and planned well.
I'm going to let two of these
pitchers go; they amt got nothing
Besides, I'm going to farm several
other would-be Richmond players be-
fore the end of this week" declared
Manager Smith. Billy used the
amt when he was cussing his way
off the diamond: therefore, he isn't
really responsible for the slang--it
was truly baseball spirit.
Richmond scored two of its runs
in the fourth inning and the other
five in the seventh off Waldbauer.

yanked and Beazley plugged in, who

MAINLY ECCLESIASTICAL

So Was Trial of Socialist Preacher
WOlfe-It Was a Scream-Social,
list, said to Have Bats in Belfry,
Held in $500 Bond for Seditious
Preachment
(By w. T. Bost)
Raleigh Cor, Aug. II, Greensboro
News.
Before United States Commission
er John Nichols today, Socialist
Preacher H. F. Wolfe, charged with
seditious preaching was bound to Fed
eral court in bond of $500 and the
farewell sermon is not yet.
All else is a scream. The hearing
that opened at high noon, ended with
Rev. Daniel Albright Longs passion
ate prophecy that Commissioner
Nichols decision would carry him and
his gray hairs to a dishonorable grave.
Office Deputy O. F. Johnson want
ed to arrest Brother Long for cat
lacking the government" but Com
missioner Nichols thought the thing
would somehow survive the clerical
bombardment and John Sturdivant,
field deputy who Gagged Brother
Wolfe, lost glorious opportunity to
get back at Brother Long.
It was a noble court in which marry
a lawyer appeared. It was largely
ecclesiastical. Deputy Marshal Stur-
divant, who arrested Mr.. Wolfe, has
been preacher, who abandoned the
profession, quoting his rejoinder to
DR.. Long, because of a better job.
The deputy marshal against defend
ing preacher and preacher defendant
held his ground in superb style. Tes-
tifying against Mr.. Wolfe the Fed
eral officer found less objectionable
to the defense than some of the
scriptural lore which Mr.. Sturdivant
has unconsciously carried concealed
about his system.
The trial went>yWell perhaps three
minutes. Mr.. Sturdivant said that he
had been commissioned to attend one
of Brother W'olfe's services. and Sun
day went out. The Raleigh deputy
had heard that Brother Wolfe would
preach against the draft and had
been stirring things up. Mr. Sturdi-
want went out. He found the church
crowded so he sat down on the steps.
! Soon Brother Wolfe began to expa-
tiate considerably. Gle said he had
been indicted several times but they
! never got anything on him. Mr.
Sturdivant said. "He said this was
| free country and a man could vote
as he pleases." .-<... -,
| Both the Jones and Bailey factions
| admit this, so Mr.. Sturdivant had tt
tell more. "He was a-talking about
the draft ad the slackers and sale
the worst slackers would be those
who went to France and got shot il
the back" Mr.. Sturdivant continued
"Then he said something about Pi
late being banished to France, h
J seemed to have it in for France
went on Mr.. Sturdivant in the di
rect testimony.
i "Pilate committed suicide" inter
posed Mr.. Long, "Pilate was not ban
| ished."
| "Never heard Of that" rejoined MI
Sturdivant.
"Maybe he was banished to the Isl
of Patmos ?" said Mr.. Long.
"John went there" returned Stur

dlvant.
Then they had it. Sturdivant talk
ed of Herod and DR.. Long reminded
him that he must be specific. There
were two Herods. The two theologi-
ans disputed as to which was which
and how much office they held. They
never got together there.
"Did you, you referred a few mo-
ments ago to Mr.. Wolfe's being un-
balanced, hear anything that day that
made you doubt that he was compos
mentis ?" asked Mr.. Long.
ooh. yes, he was a minister all
right" replied Mr.. Sturdivant with
great politeness and elucidation.
Then DR.. Long sailed into Sturdi-
want. Did Sturdivant have any Ii
quor on that day, was he in the hab-
it of drinking and was he not so
drunk on the second of August that
he didn't know what he was doing.
To all of these Mr.. Sturdivant, de-
spite the most minatory ministerial
manner, answered clearly mo-.
Court Wasn't Hearing That
81 can't hear all that" said Com
missioner Nichols. "This is only a
court Of inquiry. You may ask if he
was intoxicated that day, but what's
the purpose?"
"Please your honor" replied DR..
Long, 81 want to show that this great,
grand and glorious republic, the
greatest nation on which the sun
ever shone," (here the minister's
emotions choked him) sis in the hab-
it of sending out men who get drunk"
The court did't want to hear it.
care you through?" said Sturdi-
want softly.
"No sir, I have Just started" DR..
Long retorted.
GLOW long since you preached ?"
asked the elder minister.
"Several years." returned Mr.. Stur7
divant.
"Wl1y did you quit, would you mind
telling that?" asked Mr.. Long.
"Not a bit, got a better job, re-
joined Mr.. Sturdivant.
"Better job! So preaching was a
job to you?" DR.. Long.
"Not exactly" Mr.: Sturdivant.
"Arresting preachers is better
job than preaching" unused the min
lister, who assured Sturdivant that no
looking behind the pillow would go.
Il can prove my Skirts" said Mr..
Sturdivant when controversy as to
his condition that Sunday arose anew
in fury. The debate, however, had
not ragged about the issue as to
whether Sturdivant was a lady.
