catch.
Claude Jonnard kept right on warm

in the seventh.
AS it turned out, Jack Scott rescued
himself by tanning Elmer Smith, who
batted for Ward, with runners on sec

to short, and the dangerous inning was
over.
The box score might be labelled
'Tnitials Only" There was r. Meusel

Earl Smith and Elmer Smith, just to
make the scoring difficult.
The Giants put on perfect hit-and-

lied on another hit by Friseh. All this
trouble descended on Hoyt after two
men were out. A walk to Bancroft did
the trick.

Both pitchers started work by slip

Bancroft's bunt and beat the runner
to the bag.
The Yankee hurlers are becoming

Bob Meusel struck lady in the eye;

aged 55, We're found dead in their
home on the road from Athens viii
lage to South Scion, via. Eaton's
corner Saturday noon, by one of their
sons on his return from work. The
body of the woman was not recover
ed until later, when the officers
found it in the cellar, where it had
been thrown through a trap door in
the kitchen. Corson's body was
found on the porch back of the kitch-
en-, lying upon his back, with rifle
; across the body, with the left hand
grasping the barrel of the gun, the
right hand lying by his side. Near
the body was bloody butcher knife.
| Examination showed that Corson
lad severed the jugular vein on the
right side of his neck, a looking glass
was standing against the wall of the
house near where he lay, q kitchen
| basin stood near the glass.
Indications pointed to the Sheriff
and deputies that Corson had planned
/ to end his life Ly shooting, using the
| sass as better means of aiming the
/ gun. He apparently abandoned this
| idea of shooting himself, and killed
! himself in the manner described.
Mrs. COrson's body was found in
| the cellar after a search had been
/ made about the upper part of the
| house. The head was downward and
| the feet were resting against the
stairs and presented a grucsome
! sight.
The bodies were taken into the
/ kitchen and DR.. Walter S. Stinchficld
/ of SkoWhcgan, county medical eN-
aminer made an examination, which
revealed that Mrs. Corson's skull had
been crushed at the top of the head
by some heavy instrument which
! caused death. Search was immed-
/ lately made and a small axe was
! found, the back of which indicated
I that it was the weapon which caused
! The death.
The death of Corson was evidently
due to his cutting his throat, after
numbering his wife and throwing he1
| down stairs. The bodies were turned
over to Undertaken Ray Tibbetts OF
| Athens, who prepared them for bur-
ial.
Several investigations. conducted
by the officers, which disclosed sew

and others written to her, by a man

a few days previous to the murder
and suicide. called Deputy Cook OF
/ Athens, and told him that his wife
was writing and receiving letters
! which caused him much uncasinCss
/ and that he had evidence sufficient
/ against her to warrant her convic-
