BIG HAM CASE IS AJRGUE1). Attorney Claims Jurors Expressed Opinions Before Trial. Florence. June 12.?A. L. King, attorney for E. D. Bigham, who is in the penitentiary under death sentence for the murder of his mother and brother and charged with the murder of his sister, and the latter's two adopted children, execution of sentence having been stayed by an appeal to the supreme court, yesterday argued before Judge G. \V. S. Shipp a motion for a new trial for Bigham on the ground that two of the juror? had made remarks prior to the trial which tended to show that they had made up their minds as to the guilt of the defendant before they were sworn in as jurors. Mr. King also referred to a statement ?n the Florence Times that the jury had preceded its consideration of the case with the reading of the seventeenth chapter of Deuteronemy indicating tha/ the jury had used this particular pass age of the Scripture as a guide in arriving at a verdict. Mr. King contended that by this the jury had undertaken to substitute the Mosaic law for the law provided in such cases and that it showed bias and prejudice against the accused. For the state P. H. Arrowsmith introduced in rebuttal affidavits from Mr. Haselden, foreman of the jury, declaring, that if he had made any such statement as to the use of the Bible such reading was done only for the jury to determine its duty. Performance cf duty was uppermost in his mind in considering the case and his conscience was clear. Affidavits were introduced denying that Geo. B. White had made such statements as he had been charged with. Judge Shipp has deferred decision pending a study of the case and the affidavits. WILL NOT ADMIT BODY.

I Bamberg's Xew Star, Hadclift'e, Pitchi es Wonderful Game Friday. Well, they came to life; and woke up too. And by the way, how long has it been since you have seen a nine inning game in which one of the teams only had 26 men at bat? Last Friday Radclilf, the youthful Tar T-tool wr>T*l.*in cr in Viic? fi rct linrno era m o XO. VV/1) M X IWX1-. Ill illO 111 Ot 11VU1V/ ^UJLll V for Bamberg, probably pitched the most remarkable game ever twirled at Rhoad park. His victims were 11 young gentlemen, mark you, nobody said ball players, but gentlemen, from Ehrhardt. And the "11" is used here not as a foot ball team but because it includes two substitutes "who participated in the melee. For nine innings it wa| three up and three down; Ehrhardt failed to reach second, got to first only twice and did not have a runner left on base. In the fourth inning Zeigler, first man up, singled to right, but was immediately doubled off first when Large gobbled up F. Rober'sts fly. The only other visitor to see first alive was J. Roberts, wrho walked in the fifth; the next batter grounded to short and a fast double play resulted, Price to Large to Bamberg. It was truly a remarkable performance for Radcliff and he -was in turn rewarded with sensational support from his team mates. Not an error did the home hopes make, and Large, Charlie Rentz and Warren all took in some difficult chances. The old veteran, "Bub" Cooner, worked Radcliff to a . nnoon'c tncto anrl pnnp-ht n finp srarriP behind the bat, and oh well, a catcher isn't supposed to hit so very much anyhow. Perhaps the best catch of the game was pulled by F. Roberts in center field for Ehrhardt when he deliberately stole an apparent twobagger from the bat of Radcliff. 'Otto Large starred afield and at bat, cutting off at least one, possibly two hits, while Hard Luck Warren electrified the crowd when he crossed the road in far right field, dug his clod hoppers deep into the soft sand of the corn field, delved his hams high into the heavenly realms and clung to a sure double from Purcelle's bat. He received' an ovation?the boll weevil is here you know, and so ovations are about all that ball players can expect, although they won't buy the baby any shoes. The Bamberg team hit well, and made two double plays on the only Ehrhardt runners to see the light of day on the bases. Radcliff fanned six and walked one. To keep the record' straight, the score wras 10 to 0. Purcell fanned eight, gave up 12 hits, including a double bv Large and a tripl? by Brabham, and passed four men; he was as wild as ever Jesse James had the reputation for being in the rosiest of his racy days. He could have done worse, but in certain innings he was as weak as boarding house soup. Ehrhardt did not play as poor game as the score would otherwise indicate: Bullock had an off-day. but Tv Cobb does also sometimes; they were only charged with two errors and haven't such a had team either. With a little more intelligence in running bases and pep on the paths the Giants couldn't have come down here Friday and defeated the home boys. Things rocked along for three innings without a score. Then the fireworks started in the fourth. Somebody lit the fuse, rammed a stick of dynamite under Purcell, the explosion came and he blew up and south pawed himself to an ignominious ' licking right then and there. Brabham faced him to start this delightful round, and was issued free transportation to first. Charlie Rentz then injected some of his old time dirty stuff and laced a neat single to center on which '"Bill" raced to thirc and the old war horse pulled up safely at second on the throw in. Bulloek came to the rescue of Bamberg by having two passed balls here while Warren was at bat on which both these runners scored. Warren walked and Capt. Bamberg hot footed it *- ~ ?-? ?-?

"Gyp" Rentz struck out, but Price banged a clean hit to right on which Warren counted and Bamberg wont to third and tallied when after taking the throw in home Bullock threw out Price going to second. Cooner hit the breezes for the j final out. Two more were added in j? the fifth and just to heap insult upon f injury the locals ran in four others (' in the seventh.

Locals Take Honors at Ball Game Tuesday Afternoon. Undaunted by a bad start Tuesday afternoon at Rhoad park, the locals fought a game uphill battle against the tail end Springfield team and Manager Kinard's boys finally came out on the long end of a four to two pions. The first two Springfield batters were retired on easy chances. Boland then started trouble for the home lads when h? singled cleanly to center. Reese followed him with a tap to Large who should have made an easy chance out of it, but it rolled away for a scratch hit and Boland was safe | at third "with Reese on first. With j Fulmer at bat Reese took second on the first pitched ball, and both" runners scored on Fulmer's Texas leaguer to left center for one bag. But that was the finish of the meek and lowly tail enders. The locals came back in their half of the first and scored one run after two were out also. Charlie Rentz reached first when the ball was dropped there; he was safe at second and third on two successive wild pitches, and crossed the rubber when Warren hit safely to right. In the third the score was tied when Cooner, first up, walked and scored from first on Large's long two-bagger down the left field line. In the fifth Price walked, was sacrificed to second by Cooner, went to third on a passed ball and counted on a wild pitch. The last run was made in th? seventh by Large who started it off with an infield hit, was sacrificed by Brabham, went to third on a wild pitch and scored on Warren's second clean safety to right. There were several peculiar things; for instance, it's a mystery how the umpires ever slept any that night. And in the sixth inning the spectators witnessed a play rarely ever seen in a real sure enough honest to goodness ball game. With two strikes on him Parnell saw that no 'catcher in the world could get in machine gun range of the next ball pitched by. Warren, so he took a healthy swing at it and of course trotted to first safe on his third strike. Another interesting feature was that Bamberg tallied a run in every odd inning, the first, third, fifth and seventh, and, of course, didn't take the ninth.

Double plays, score. The game was marred by con- \ tinuous and more or less justifiable wrangling on both sides, and the umpires deserve special mention, each team constantly having to play ten men. The excessive heat caused the pitchers to have to work slowly, but so far as the actual playing was concerned the game was the best of the present league season. The game was started late, due to a shower, and should have been called at the end 1 of the seventh inning on account of darkness. From a Bamberg standpoint Charlie and "Gyp" Rentz and George Price wer? the bright particular stars in fielding, wThile old "Hard Luck" Warren was really the hero of the TJ /% LA + I in + A on rl VIClUIjr.

He had the Springfield batters eating from his hand when hits meant runs, and deserved a shut-out. The losers began the first inning with a rush on him for two runs, but loose fielding was responsible and for the last eight the visitors went blooey. Boland, catching for Springfield, got three of his team's eight hits and scored a run. Parnell, the contortionist, acrobat, comedian, or anything else you choose to call him except a base ball pitcher, was rapped in the pinches, and but for good support from his team mates and umpire mate would have suffered a much more stinging defeat at the hands of the 1920 Tri-County league cham Price to Large to Bamberg, Large to Bamberg.
