HUNTING
SEASON
IN THE LAST FEW MINUTES OF SECOND HALF QUAKER VARSITY TOOK THE FIELD AND HAD LITTLE PRACTICE.
Earlham 55; St, Mary's 0. Earlham won from St. Mary's college of Dayton, O.. on Reid field yesterday afternoon in a slow and uninteresting football game toy a score of 55 to 0. The Quaker scrubs played all but the last few moments of the second half," when the varsity was substituted. St. Mary's proved hermll lo ue a weaK opponent lur even the second team of Earlham and at no time were the Quakers In danger of a touchdown by the Catholics. The game with St. Mary's will prove very beneficial for the local institution as it will now have seven clays of practice before the game with De Pauw, November 20. No play by either the Quakers or the Catholics was exceptionally interesting. Earlham used no trick play and the forward pass was only resorted to a few times. St. Mary's, on the other hand, showed a lack of knowledge of modern football and all her plays were but straight football. The forward pass was used, but it failed to make any gains in this manner, as well. Lineup of Teams.

FORMER, WHOSE HOME IS IN TO
LEDO, WAS WOUNDED IN THE HEAD WHILE HUNTING IN THE VICINITY OF WILLIAMSBURG. The open hunting season, before it was one day old in this county claim ed two human victims William Bak er of Toledo, who is superintending the placement of a furnace in a Greene township school and Harold Fllby, of Milton, a school boy. Neither of the two accidents will prove serious, al though young Filby Is the more ser iously injured, and may be laid up for several days. Fate played a particularly unkind game on young Filby. While he is nursing his gunshot wound he will also have an opportunity for healing his right arm, which was broken below the elbow, while wrestling, a few days before the hunting accident. Since breaking his arm, young Filby has not been attending school but Wednesday, In company with Will Philipott and Frank Brumfield, he opened up a camp at Feeder's Dam, south of Milton, where they expected to spend a few days hunting and fishing. Yesterday morning, early, the three arose and started off in pursuit of a crow. While crossing a field. Filby's gun was accidentally discharg ed, the load entering the second toe on his right foot and was diverted. It passed through his foot, coming out at the ball of the foot. The injured boy was carried to the home of a nearby farmer by his companions, where a horse and buggy was secured and he was hurried to a physician. The wound was dressed and it is unlikely that any complications will develop. How Baker Was Hurt. Mr. Baker, accompanied by Will Brown, trustee of Greene township, went out hunting for the festive rabbit and quail Wednesday morning. While crossing a field the explosion of a shot gun was heard in the distance. Almost at the same time, the "whirr" of shot was heard and Baker felt a stinging sensation on his forehead, and called Mr. Brown to his aid. It was found that one of the birdshot had struck him just above the left eye, after passing through his derby hat, and lodged in the skin. The shot was extracted by Mr. Brown. The wound bled profusely and swelled to great size rapidly. However, he was not badly injured. Mr. Baker went back to Mr. Brown's home where he has been staying dur ing his work at Williamsburg. He was confined In the house during the day, suffering greatly from a head ache. GIRL WITNESSES A STRANGE DUEL Gives the Signal Which Starts Bloody Battle Fought by Four Men.

TO HEAR HAZLITT CASE ON MONDAY Was to Have Begun Today, But Was Decided to Wait Until Next Week. ENTER ABATEMENT PLEA DEFENSE THIS MORNING SPRINGS SURPRISE AND COURT SUSTAINS A TECHNICAL VIOLATION OF THE STATUTES. The case of the state against Mrs. Lida Hazlitt, charged with practicing medicine without a license, which, was set for trial today was continued until Monday morning. Mrs. Hazlitt will be tried before the petit jury. About fifty witnesses have been summoned. When the case was called for trial this morning, the affidavit was read and the defense sprung a surprise on the prosecution by filing a plea of abatement and being sustained by the court. The defense stated, in its motion for abatement that the affidavit against Mrs. Hazlitt was filed while the grand jury was in session, thus violating the technicalities of the law in this respect. The grand jury should have been given an opportunity to investigate the case and if it deemed the evidence sufficient, to bring an indictment against the defendant. Dr. Gott of Marion, who will be the star witness of the prosecution, was present. The state will be represented by Prosecuting Attorney Charles Ladd. his assistant Ray K. Shiveley and Frank Gavitt of Indianapolis, who is special counsel for the State Medical association. Mrs. Hazlitt has re tained for her defense Robbins and Robbins and Will A. Bond, former prosecuting attorney. A CAMP OF HOBOES With Eight Members of the Leisure Class Inhabiting It. LIVING OFF COMMUNITY The police have been asked to break up a company of eight as dirty looking hoboes as ever graced Richmond with their presence who are alleged to be camping along the Pennsylvania railroad, just east of the North Nineteenth street bridge. It is said the Knighta of the Road have been camping there for the last three nights, which is entirely long enough, as their presence, especially in such numbers, bodes no good to this community. Through the day the Weary Willies divide the city off in sections, it is said, and make a canvass for food. They then congregate in camp at night and before a roaring, crackling fire prepare their royal feast. Some of the tramps- are quite expert In the art of coeking and are proficient and
WOMAN IN BLACK IS A SENSATION
Peculiar Actions of Night Prowling Female Attracting Attention. FREQUENTS THE EAST END SHE IS A VERY LARGE WOMAN, HAUNTS DARK PLACES AND RUNS WHEN ANYONE AP-M PROACHES ALWAYS ALONE. Who is the mysterious Woman in Black and what is her purpose in prowling around on the dark streets in the east end of the city, lurking in the dark shadows and running rapidly at the mere approach of anyone, lest her identity be discovered and the motive for her strange actions ascertained? For the past two or three nights it is said, residents in the vicinity of North Sixteenth to Twentieth street, have been startled and greatly alarmed by the peculiar actions of a mysterious woman, a giantess in size, clothed all in black and. whose features are carefully concealed by a heavy black veil. No one seems to know her object. She makes a practice of walking aimless up and down the dark streets in that section of the city, shunning the electric lights like a fugitive and darting up the closest alley when a person is seen coming in her direction. Has an Accomplice. The woman is always alone. Sri has never been seen in company with any one. although one resident of the east end asserted this morning that he is positive he saw the woman signaling to a rough looking man about a block away at the corner of North Seventeenth and B streets. The man is alleged to have answered the sig nal by a low whistle, immediately after which the couple disappeared and were not seen again In that vicinity for the remainder of the evening. The matter has been reported to the police -who do not know what to think of the affair. An investigation will be made, which will very probably result in an arrest. The woman, however. is said to be very wary of strangers and to apprehend her may be a more difficult matter than it appears on the surface. Richmond has been visited by all kinds of individuals, including "Jack, the Peeper" and "Jack, the Hugger" and numerous other "Jacks." but the "Woman in Black" is entirely new to this city and her presence is no more desirable than any of the otiier characters. incidently dirty enough to hold the job as chef for any one of the big circuses which visit this city during the summer. "The gentlemen at Ieasure" sleep "spoon fashion behind a bower of tall weeds in the open fields during these warm Indian summer nights and for the past week fe wof them have sought the friendly warmth of the big furnace in the basement of the city building, which is known as "the hoboes retreat. msm

Pulliam. whose term expires on the fifteenth of next month. Dreyfuss. characterizing the opposi tion to Heydler as "a display of poor snortsmanship declares taat ne is ready to make a big fight for his fa vorite. "Heydler is big enough to represent the league in the National baseball commission, and he proved himself the equal executively of Ben Johnson and Garry Herrmann in the recent post-season championship series," Dreyfuss is quoted as saying. Is a Wealthy Man. Dreyfuss is probably the biggest man in the league at the present time. He has rolled up a big pile with the Pittsburg team since he took charge. Besides his interest in that, he is credited with the control of the Boaton club, and is pretty high, in the Philadelphia teams counsels. Garry Herrmann and Charles W.
