Maryland is the "homerun" state.

They're "Homerun" Baker, Home

Their motto-Over the fence is out.
Each believes the secret of long

"Homerun" Baker says it's the hands
"Homerun" Babe says it's the eyes

~Homerun" Bentley says It's the feet.
They're all right. Close checking
shows that each gets results by a COM

sport as the shooters. Every Sunday
afternoon the road leading to the traps

autos headed for the slaughter OF clay
birds.
This afternoon will be another day
and, unless the clouds hang low and
the gentle raindrops interfere with the
birds, the regular crowd of shots and
spectators will be there as usual.
Trapshooters are especially inter
ested in perfecting their sights since
the announcement that Ray Is going to
send q team down in the near future
to win back the laurels lost to Phoenix
several months ago. The inter-city
contest will be held Thursday after
noon and the program will consist OF
eight events of 20 birds each.
Today's shoot will be the last prac-
tice before the title contest and al
shots are urged to take part in tbs
practice. Today's shoot starts at

ASK COURT TO AID
Lloyd Miller Requests Annul'
ment of Marriage.
Claims His Wife Is Married To
Another Man.

Being forced into a marriage with
a woman who he later discovered
was the wife of another man led to
many matrimonial tangles for Lloyd
J. Miller, a local auto mechanic. ac-
cOrding to the story he told Judge
James A. Mcclure in the first division
of the district court this morning. He
appealed to the court to annul the
marriage in view of the fact that he is
married again.
Miller said that in 1914, while in
Wyoming. he began keeping company
with Anna Cummings. While calling
at her house one night during a heavy
storm, after he had known her only
about a week, Miller said the woman
and her mother urged him to stay all
night. He said he retired to a room
assigned to him and that shortly aft
onward Mrs. Cummings came to his
Room. During the night the house
was raided by the police, but Miller
was the only one taken into custody,
,he asserted.

Sured him that if he would marry
her the matter would be fixed up" as
she was personally acquainted with
the chief of police. Miller said he lis
tened to her advice but that neverthe-
less he was fined $50 when his case
game up for trial.
IuGUt ne Sdlu, ne Hldue the us
covery thai Mrs. Cummings had never
obtained a divorce from Daniel Nc
Coy. from whom she separated in
1908. Miller said he left her after
three years, when he saw that she in
tended to take no action toward get
ting the divorce, and refused to live
with her again, in spite of her pleas
to be taken back. He said he con-
suited an attorney, who informed him
that his marriage to Mrs. Cummings
was invalid. Later he married an
other woman, he said Meantime,
Mccoy, who is thought now to be
living in Colorado, married again,
Miller said he was informed. Miller
said he had been informed that Mrs.
Cummings had been living with a
man of that name but to whom she
was not married.
Il A letter from Mrs. Cummings was
read to the court by Miller's attorney.
In the letter Mrs. Cummings said she
had left Mccoy in 1908 and that in
1910 she instituted divorce proceed
fngs but that owing to lack of funds
she was compelled TO drop them.
However, Mccoy must have gotten
