'Have Won Only One Game Out Of Four-r-Def eated

- ' Score By -Innings. - ,
' .'With only one game outvof three to
their; credit the New York Giants
yesterday afternoon failed to hold down
the Athletic's" heavy hitters , and, as
a result,, they have but little chance
left of winning the 1913world's series.
The game yesterday was played at
. Philadelphia and it was the general
concensus' of opinion that the Giants
would take this - game, the fourth
inthe series, and this would have
put both teams on an equal footing
McQraw put Demaree in the- box
and during the first four innings he
allowd the Mackmen to put four men
across the plate. In the fifth inning
Marquad was put in the box but the
team had been- partially , demoralized
and, the Athletics got two more men
safe at home. :
Bender aiul Schang comprised the
bettery for the Athletics and the Giants
got eigjit hits off him. However, the
Athletic fielders' were right on the job
and their playing was fast and snappy.
Regardless of this the Giants made
five runs" during the game while the
Athletics made six..
Today the game will be played in
New York ' and there is every ; reason
to believe that McGraw's men will
rally and takri this game. However,
it is the general opinion of the local fans
that the Giants , have only about one
chance in; a hundred of winning the
series... Three straight' games would
-. be required to do this and-the members
of the team have shown that they are
not' as strbngby any means asNthe
Athletics.

Lenoir, Oct. 10. Mrs. Chloe Crump

husband, f who is how living in the
West somewhere, she has been having
trouble lately with her second husband
Some time- ago he left her, osten
sibly to find work and with the pro
mise that he would send for her,
but he so. far has failed to send for
her, and he also carried their only
child along with him.
All these things are said to have
preyed on her mind and are assigned
as the cause for her attempted self-
. destruction. At times she is rational,
and she expresses a desire to die be
cause of her troubles.
Mrs. Crump has for some time been
living with her son, Haywood Jen
kins, and she has always borne a splen
did reputation, but has been unfor
tunate in her marriages.
that through suasion and threats Mr.
Tower has been induced to leave hist
wife, and to refuse to recognize her
as such.
Mrs. Tower was Georgenna Burdick
more widely known among her friends
bv the name of "Dixie" because of
her pronounced Southern accent. The
marriage, according to Mrs. Tower,
was performed at the home of her
mother, 28 Whalley avenue, Ne
Haven, Conn., June 7 1911. At that
time Mr. Tower was a student at Yale,
and Mrs. Tower consented, she says,
to keep the marriage secret until he
should be graduated, as there is
strict rule at Yale that students who
marrv while in the university must
leave.
Since-- then, she charges, both her
husband and his parents have refused
to recognize her as the wife of the
young man. '
Mrs. Tower is twenty-eight years
old, two years older than Mr. Tower,
and is said to have beyr on the stage
lor a snort wnne. -

THE RIVER
One Thousand Bottles Of Beer
Mingle With Waters Of
The Neuse.
WHISKEY IS ALSO DESTROYED
Splrltus Frumentl Was That?
Taken From The Yacht
Gracee.
One thousand bottles of beer and
twenty-five gallons of whiskey were
yesterday afternoon emptied into the
waters of Neuse river by Sheriff R. B.
Lane, assisted by Jailer Bayliss. With
such a large quantity of intoxiranfa
floating around in the waters of the
majestic Neuse there is little wonder
that remarkable stories about "stewed"
fish and "pickled" oysters were being
told around the streets last night.
This whiskey and beer was taken
from the yacht Gracee several weeks
ago vhen George Marshall, a Glouces
ter county, Virginia, boatman came
into port loaded to the gunwale with
the spiritus frumenti. Marshall was put
under a bond of fifty dollars to mak
his appearance at the term of Superior
Court just passed to answer to a charge
of violating the State laws by having
more than a prescribed quantity of
whiskey and beer in his possession.
Shortly after putting up the bond,
Marshall and his companions set sail
for some unknown port. It was gener
ally believed that he would not show
up to stand trial and this belief was
borne out when he failed to answer
when his case was called.
It is probably well that the owner
and proprietor of the yacht Gracee
which was nothing loss than a floating
bar room, did not show hfs face in New
Bern this week. Chief of Police Lupton
had received word from the Virginia
authorities that Marshall his father and
his the three men i ; h
crew of the yacht, were wanted there
for a felony and a warrant would have
been sevrcd Qn them assoon as they
had ,anded -n the dty TherJ fa not
the , t d bt . , . G M
shal would haye bcen found .,
of the charge against him here and
would have either been heavily fined
or sent to jail for several months. In
either case the Virginia warrant would
have been served at the first oppor
tunity and the prisoner taken back to
answer to charges against him in that
State.
Marshall and his attorneys raised an
awful howl when Mayor Bangert
stated that he would hold the whiskey
and beer. However, this did not the
least good and the wet goods were
placed in safe keeping at the jail and
the entire consignment remained there
until yesterday when Judge Whedbee
ordered it destroyed.
The whiskey and beer was taken inta
one of the rooms in the jail and in the
presence of several witnesses was
emptied into the sewer. More than twa
hours was required for this task, but
the last bottle was finally opened and
as its contents gurgled merrily down the
drain pipe, those in charge of the work
breathed a sigh of relief.
CO-OPERATIVE SUPPLY COM
PANY HAS UNIQUE SYSTEM.
The Co-operative Supply Company
(the consumer's store) has put on a
unique scheme which will be of benefit
to their customer-- and which will also
do away with much inconvenience
in keeping track of. purchases made.
Card of the value of $5.25 and of $1.05
have been gotten out by the company.
These are placed in the hands of cus
tomers at a reduction of five per cent,
and are then used by them in making
purchases. The idea is a unique one and
bids fair to be very satisfactory.
