Special Star Telegram. ,
Raleigh, N. 0., Aug. 2L To-day's
game was won by Raleigh but it will
probably not count in the pennant
series, as it was protested from th?
very start on account of the sunset
limit. On account of ram the game
was not commenced until 'after 6
o'clock and was called in the eighth
inning on account of darkness. Rules
prescribe that the game must begin
two hours before sunset, consequently
to-day's - contest will very likely
amount to naught.
The game itself was more or less a
farce as the diamond was slippery and
soaked with water. It was impossible
to field and hard chances could not be
taken. Both Newman and Stockdale
suffered and at times lost complete
control of the ball. If the game is
thrown out, as it no doubt will be, it
will necessitate a double header this
week.
The visitors were crippled to-day,
Thaekara, their catcher, being sick in
bed.
Note Rule 21, Section 19, as given
in Spalding's Official Baseball Guide,
is as follows: "Every championship
game must be commenced not later
than two hours before sunset." As the
game in question was not begun until
after 5 o'clock and the sun set yester
dav. accordinsr to the almanacs, at
least fifteen minutes before seven, it
follows that the game was commenced
"later than two hours before sunset,"
and should not count in the pennant
series. Editor of the Star.
The Protest and When Decided.
In response to a telegram sent Man
ager Cowan by the Star last night
inquiring who would decide the pro
test of yesterday's game and when it
would be decided, he replied as fol
loVs: "Mr. Sherwood Higgs will de
cide the protest probably as early as
to-morrow. I will be present when
he considers it. TJmnire Harry Mace
says I am right."
Raleigh, N. C, Aug. 2L To day's
i game- was featureless and tiresome.
Rain at 4 o'clock prevented a full at
tendance. Wilmington played slow,
and at the end of its half of the eighth
inning the game was called at that
club's request, though there was am
ple time before sunset to. play the
next inning. The grounds were wet
and a piece of carpet was used for the
pitchers to stand .-on. Players could
not maintain their footing or run on
account of the wet grounds.

column was rather against him, but
the Star repeats that Tacks is Al.
If one of the pennant games is to
be played at Goldsboro next Monday
arrangements should be made at once
with the railroads for special trains
and reduced rates. Without this
feature the attendance at Goldsboro
would not pay expenses. .
There will be no more exhibition
games in Charlotte, the last of the
three having been called off yesterday
by Manager Bryan, of Tarboro, who
left for home with his team. Tuesday

The Newborn Evening News in
speaking of the pennant game or
games to be played by the Wilming
ton and Raleigh teams other than
upon their home grounds, says that
Newborn should make an effort to
have the teams compete in that city.
The article concludes : "Newborn has
quite a number of 'cranks' and a good
enclosed ground, and we would sug
gest that an effort be made to get the
clubs to play the last game or games
of the series here."

Burt Green, a colored desperado,
whose name not. infrequently appears
on the police docket, was bound over
to the next Superior Court yesterday
in a bond of $50, failing to give which
he went to jaiL The charge against
him is assault with a deadly weapon,
and it was upon a white man who
sought to save th negro's life and
that of a colored woman named Betsie
Mills, whom Green was accompanying
alone the A C. L. yards in this city.
The negroes were walking on one of
the side tracks of the railroad on
which a train was approaching late
Tuesday night. Watchman B. F.
Strickland, seeing theirdanger, order
ed them to leave the switch. They
replied insolently, and began a f usi
lade of words and profanity, which
the watchman' immediately checked
by making an attempt to arrest them
both. Green got away and the wo
man was taken in charge by Police
man Frank George, but not until after
Green retired to darkness and began
to throw brickbats at the watchman,
one of which smashed his lantern and
another grazed his arm.
Green appeared at the trial of the
woman yesterday morning and was
himself arrested in the court room by
Policeman George.
The woman was sent to the county
roads for thirty days, while Green
was sent over to jail for the mgner
court as stated.

Special October Term
Special Star Telegram. I
McFarlan, N. C, Aug. 21 One
of the most brutal and heinous cases
of criminal assault in the history of
the State occurred here' this afternoon
between one and two o'clock and the
negro brute whoi responaible- for the
crime met . swift- punishment. at, th
hands of the infuriated' white citizens
of the' community. The victim was
Miss Lena Keith, aired 22 years and a
daughter of a well-known farmer
living near McFarlan, a small village
in Anson county, on the Wade sboro
and Florence division of the A C. L.
railroad. The brute was Lute Hough,
a desperate negro character known
over the entire county.
The crime was committed at the
home of the young woman, where the
negro asked for water and ascertaining
the absence of her brother at
the stables on the plantation, he
proceeded to accomplish his hellish
purpose. The young lady was
severely cut at the back of her
head and on her breast are two ghast
ly wounds. The fiend was speedily
captured and at sunset this evening he
was swinging to a limb just across the
South Carolina line about two miles
and near the scene of the crime. Fifty
volleys were fired into his body by
determined citizens and after the lynch
ing this well known warning to mem
bers of his race was penned on a pla
card on his breast: "Our white wo
men must be protected.1'

Hous-b. a neero. was hanged near
,Wadesboro, N. C, to night by a crowd
of enraged citizens. His body was
then riddled with bullets. His crime
was criminally assaulting Miss Lena
Keith. He attacked his victim while
she slept, and broke a chair over her
head and than tried to cut her throat.
The negro admitted his guilt. The
Keiths are respectable people, and as
soon as the crime became known the
entire .community started in the
search. The negro was found within
a few hours after the crime.
