The game was between a leam from
Stnnlon and one from Emcrlclc. Some
exceptionally good plays were made
and some exceptionally rank errors.
The sensational feature of Ihe game
was a home run made by Leal Spauld-
Ing of the Stanton team. The si-ore
stood 17 to 4 In favor of Slanton. The
personnel of the teams Is as follows :
Stanton : Kearney , Hpnuldlng , Ends ,
' Pont , Mayer , Smith , Tlollsteln , Nicholas
las , Dllman. Emerlck : King , C. Mo-
Inlosh , M. Mclntosh , A. Mclnlosh , G.

earned runs , Emorlck 1. Mayer struck
out 9. Mclntosh 5. Base on
balls , Mayer 1 , Mclntosh 4. EmerluU
had three different men by the name
of Mclntosh In the box but neither the
name nor pitcher seemed to hold down
the .score of Ihe opposing team.
Immediately after the races there
was a balloon ascension and para
chute leap given tip Iowa which pro
vided n rare Ireat for the crowd. A
dog made the ascension. When about
a half mile up in the air ho was sig
nalled by Ihe llrlng of a gun lo cut
the parachute loose which he did by
pulling n rope with his teeth when
the chute opened and the dog nllght-
cd uninjured on the outskirts of town.
The balloon floated a mile further be
fore falling.
Today will witness some exciting
contesls of speed and it Is difficult to
apprehend how Ihe full program can
be curried out as there are extra rac
es crowded Into towady's program
Shade On will go a fast milo and
there are purses for free for all events
lioth trotting and running , base ball ,
balloon ascension , and the famous
dog leap. The freight train that
leaves Battle Creek at 8:55 : p. m. will
carry passengers and have nn extra
coach.
An ancient and venerable tout was
orntlng to a group of interesled lis
teners on breeding and race horses.
Pointing to a branded horse In the
2:35 : race lie observed. "That's a
broncho ; see the broncho brand on
her ? You have heard of the AVilkes
strain of horses. Well , the sire of
Old Wllkes was n broncho taken from
a herd In Texas. " Poor old Hamll-
tonlan 10 ; such Is fame !
W. O. Hall , A. H. Winder and J. W.
Davis of Norfolk had horses entered
In the races.
Rev. T. J. Walsh was among the
crowd in the grand stand.

LINCOLN , Sept. 0. "I speak In de-
foiihe of one of my counlry women ,
now caged like a wild beast In one of
the common jails of this stale , await
ing the execution of a life senlenco
of Imprisonment In the penitentiary ,
for the deliberate and premeditated
murder of her husband. I speak for
her because I believe , and I think , I
will be able to show that she is the
victim of persecution and of an al
most insane and uncontrollable public
sentiment , that was studiously worker
up against her after the jury was Im-
panncled , and that had much to do
with her conviction : and I speak with
out fee or reward of any kind and
without hope of any. "
These are the words with which
Former United Stales Senalor W. V.
Allen of Madison begins n supplementary -
tary brief In defense of Lena Margaret
I.lllic. This opening statement Is fol
lowed by HO closely typewritten pag
es setting forth , with all Iho resources
of Hie advocate , the attorney con-
vlcllon that the woman who Is now
under senlence lo spend her life with
in the gray walls of the state peni
tentiary , is Innocent of the crime of
murdering her husband , Harvey Llllle.
With special emphasis he calls at
tention of the court to the absence of
any motive for the crime , and ho
quotes the great authorities on men
tal science to show that few human
actions nro begun , without the backIng -
Ing of n powerful motive. Great stress
Is laid on the good character of the
woman , and her affection for her hus
band.

A MORNING OF CHILL AND FOG

They say thai a siimmer'H fog will
no It a hog mid a winter's fog would
're'jsso a dog. The fog ibis morning
was neither one nor Iho olhor. Il was
nldway between seasoiiH ; lint It WIIH
Millly chilly unough to make a dog
shiver , and a man nlHo. It nettled
lown over Iho connllry early last
light and at an early hour this mo/n-
Ing It was so dense an to olmcnro the
'ci-nery , and the light of the coming
lawn. It WIIH almoHl chilly enough
lo front , but If the weather man Inn
my such Inti-nllonH he was at least
consldoralo enough to throw the
blanket of fog over the growing vego
tallon and thereby protect It from Ihu
early vlsllallon and nothing was In
J u red. Thu minimum tumpuratiiro as
recorded by Dr. Sailor's thermometer
was forty-live degrees , which Is thir
teen degrees above the freezing point
a lucky thirteen this time. It has
been nearer the fatal point than that
this season , but early risers were jus-
tilled by the chilly dampnesV In think
ing that front had certainly sottlei
ilown upon things. The old seniors
have nolleed that the early frosts In
this territory usually como with
change of the moon usually the
change to full moon. The full moor
Is not dun according to the calendar
until the 24th , and It Is hoped tkat the
killing frosl will bo delayed at least
until that time The new moon makes
its appearance on Friday , the 9th , and
If that date Is safely passed without
a nipping of growing things they may
have at least another two weeks In
which to mature and this. It Is be
lieved , will place most of the corn crop
out of danger from n frost. Much of
it Is already ripe , but with two moro
full weeks of developing weather the
prospects are good for a bumper crop
of nicely matured corn.
