BASEBALL BITS

When Joe Jackson, White Sox slugging star, singled in the eighth inning on the Polo Grounds yester- day 1t was his first hit in 24 times at bat Before coming here Joe had played in six successive games and had gone to bat p1 times without gettign a blow. O1 d George G. Slump visits all the lads sooner or later.
 Though the White Sox still have quite a lead in the American League there seems to be a lot of trouble ahead of Kid Gleason. He now has lost three straight games and his pitching has slumped quite a bit. For a stretch Claude Williams held up nobly with Cicotte. He has won 16 out of 22 games. But he has needed help in all his games in the last two weeks The Yankees hope to cut down that Chicago lead some more in a double header today.

Murder Of Greeorios Funtas, But
Without Results - Will Continue
Endsaver. However, to Bring Mur.
dsrers to Justice
Sheriff E. D. Harwood who had
since last Monday night been in
Massachusetts,, for which state he
left on the 10.47 Pullman in search
and Harry Dan. who are wanted for
the murder Of Gregorios Fuatas at SO
Mill street on last Sunday night, ar
rived in Augusta on the $50 express
Thursday afternoon. Sheriff Har-
wood did not get the men he went
after but the trip was not without
results as he secured confirmation OF
which he had in his possession.
Among other things learned by the
sheriff was tina, the two men referred
to above left Gardiner on the Sun
day night Pullamn at li04. and that
at point about mile out oc Card
ner they took a Pullman car sleeper,
asking the conductor of that car to
call them at $50 Monday morning
after the arrival Of the train in Bos-
ton. This train arrives at the North
station. Boston. quite a bit earlier
than the hour mentioned above but
passengers in the sleeper are not re-
Quired to leave their births until
o'clock.
The sheriff further learned that the
two men got hold Of the porter of
the Pullman during the trip and ATT
er giving him So told him to put them
OFF just as soon as the train arrived
in Boston; that when the train
stopped they hurried through the
North station. and that so nearly as
could be learned they had breakfast
at a restaurant at 80 kneeland
street. 1t was learned from a Syrian
who was in charge Of this restaurant
that he endeavored TO engage the
two men in conversation but that
they would not talk. and after hur-
riedly eating their breakfast they as
hurriedIy left the place. From what
the sheriff could learn he is con-
WINGED that they were the two men
wanted for the Mill street crime.
Sheriff Harwood made a thorough
search in the city Of Boston and al
50 other places in that vicinity, and
also visited Peabody, Mass. and con-
tinued the search. and although the
search thus far has been without
satisfactory results he says that he
Is not discouraged. but intends to
continue it until every means is ex-
hausted, as he realizes that the crime
of last Sunday night is one Of the
most brutal in the history OF Ken
nebec county and will leave no stone
unturned in an endeavor to bring
the nurderers to justice.
After the return yesterday Of the
sheriff to Augusta. the Albanian
Hamst ISLAM, who had been held
at the Kennebec Jail since Monday
night on suspicion that he might
know something about the crime, was
taken before Judge Lancaster OF the
court and given a thor
oush examination. but because OF the
failure to secure any discriminating
evidence against him he vas at
length released.

Profiteers in Court

An unusual number of eviction cases are being brought into the justices courts and Investigations have shown that nearly all of them grow out of profteering. property owner, last spring is found to have rented without forseeing how rentals going to In a majority of the there is only verbal understanding between him and the lessee that the price agreed upon would hold for stated period. perhaps year. In some of the there witnesses to such under standings.
 Sometimes something has been said about sum rates" and winter rates" the figures being agreed upon thus showing that there was definite understanding upon the part of the lessee that he taking the house for year-at least through the winter.
 The landlord though had no idea what the pre- vaing winter rate would be; that persons in need of houses would come around offering fabulous figures So, the landlord flies to the courts with an evc- tion suit.
 We not presuming to advise the courts but If we were court should inquire into the cases very closely and whenever possible we should decide in favor of the lessee. Anyway we should resolve every doubt and conflict of testimony in his favor
 There, now. we have disqualified ourselves for sitting in such cases but then we are not court but only one of some thousands of citizens of Phoenix, all of whom except the profiteers feel the way about it.

Enforcing School Attendance

The school authorities say that there is a wide spread disregard of the school requiring the at tendance at school of children up the age of six teen years This situation is bad enough in the city but it is said to be in the country districts and we are told that wholesale enforcement of the law is to be undertaken.
 There may be cases where enforcement would work hardship. There suppose, cases where boys under the age of sixteen are the sole support or necessary partial support, of widowed mothers and younger brothers and sisters That is unfor- tunae both for the boys and the law but there seems to be only one thing to be done to suspend the law in such cases.
 But in no other should that be done The at- tendance of children at school should be rgidy en- forced as duty, not only to the children but to so ciety of which, sometime they will be active members somewhat influential either for good or had

A WORTHY CAUSE

In another column of this paper today may be found an invitation to the housewives of Phoenix to help reduce the high cost of living at St Lukes home Tor the coming winter. This invitation affords any one the privilege of assisting the patients of this institution with delicacies which otherwise might be denied them on account of the almost prohbitve cost.
 This plan which has been successfully carried out in other communities contemplates the donation of one glass or jar of anything you have put up, jelly preserves, canned fruits vegetables, etc. We know that the generous housewives of Phoenix will respond to this request they have done to similar worthy causes and what has been success in other places will be doubly so here
