WOMAN DRIVER
COMES TO GRIEF
WITH TRAFFIC COP

An ut-of-town lady. well known
in Augusta social circles came to
grief Thursday on Water street,
when she deliberately disrega rded
the signal to stop given her by d
traffic officer at the corner of Bridge
and Water streets, and nearly ran
over child who was crossing the
road.
The officer hoped to the running
board of the woman's machine to
warn her not to repeat her offense
and to admonish her. but her atti-
tude was so cool and defiant that
instead Of letting her off with a
warning, he made her continue her
trip to the Office of Judge Robert A.
Cony of the municipal court. At the
judges office, her manner was so de-
liberately insulting that she was
placed in cell in the city Jail until
she could think things over bit
and come TO the court in a more re-
spectful attitude
Shortly before 6 o'clock. on an
peal of Augusta friends she was
again brought before Judge Cony
who fined her So and costs for vio
lating the city traffic rules and al
lowed her to depart after a severe
talking to.

lacked judgment on the bases and
went down To defeat. having II men
left on the bases. Dunphy seemed to
tighten up in the pinches and the Old
Orchard played its best ball when
there was danger of scoring by their
opponents. The fielding honors went
TO Flanagan, Gilfllan and Cushman.
Rothemich robbed his own team of
one run and probably two when he
interfered with shortstop sevigny
while running for third in the fifth
inning.
Old Orchard put the game on ice in
the second inning when they scored
six runs on pass, a sacrifice, two
singles. "A triple. d double and two
errors. Five hits. including two dou-
bles and two walks, gave Berwick
three counters in the third. In the
ninth Berwick had men on first and
third. but Jones flied to Duncan for
the third out and spoiled the chance of
Berwick's coming out on top.
Although hits were plentiful. Seyig-
ny was the champion with the willow,
getting two doubles, a triple and see
ing the bases four times
Horne was hit on the head BY a
pitched ball by Dunphy. He dropped
TO the ground but was not hurt seri-
ously. being able to resume play in
the next inning Gilillan was spiked
in the arm and the attendance of a
physician was necessary.

night for Poland spring, where they

Giant Circus Elephant
That Visited Augusta
Has To Be Killed

Mutt" the giant circus elephant
that attracted so much attention
when he visited this city with the
Sparks Shows in June went bad
at Malone. Mass. and had to be put
to death. Eight As calibre steel
jacketed army bullets were required
to dispatch the huge pachiderm.
Mutt" was a very costly animal,
being valued at about $4,000. He
weighed $500 pounds, was nine feet
high at the shoulders, and was 10
years old He was highly trained,
and said to be the only elephant in
captivity that could walk 100 feet
on his hind legs. He had always
been considered kindly, and was a
general favorite of the circus
crowds, but on the day before the
shows hit Malone, he mauled his
woman trainer so badly that she was
removed to hospital suffering with
several broken ribs, broken arms,
and other injuries.
After the elephant WIS killed he
was hauled in truck to the out
skirts of the village and buried, q
grave almost as large as the excava-
ton for house being required. The
tusks were retained by employees of
the circus as souvenirs.

10 those in charge Of the auction, is
far too low a figure for the type of

spoken when he discussed with the
representative of the Journal the

Shaw said that if the men who sent
their cattle to the fair for this sale

not deeply interested in the better

.Harding:'s Delay
on Debs' Pardon
Riles Socialists

application for a pardon for Eugene

The statement referred to the re-
lease of many convicted German
spies, some of whom were convicted
of placing bombs on ships sailing
for European ports and deneunces
the American Legion.
The committee, the statement
said, learns with profound regret
and indignation that after months of
waiting no definite action has been
taken by President Harding. The
United States has today the unen-
viable distinction of being the only
country where the administration
has not granted full amneshty to
all it's political prisoners. Every
German agent convicted of covert
acts against the government during
the war has been pardoned Some

ships sailing for European ports.
Both the light sentences they re-
ceived and the clemency shown these
criminals of the old ruling class of
Germany are significant Acts which
if committed by American citizens
would incur the death penalty for
treason. are apparently considered of

citizens in war time
