The distinguished young actor. Robert
Mantell. who is looked upon as the
founder of the suppressed emotional
school of acting, will make his first app
pearance in Davenport Monday evening
next. as the opening attraction of the new
Burtis opera house. The play in which
MIR. Mantell appears on this occasion will
be DEnnerv's beautiful heroic drama.
M onbars, IN which he has three years
record of success. The play is divided
into five acts and its story is one Of deep
human interest that holds the attention of
the audience from beginning to end. The
costumes worn by the artists in this play
are extremely handsome and are those of
the low fashionable directoire. Mantell
and "Monbars" come to us stamped with
the approval of the press and public of
the whole country, and q rare dramatic
entertainment may be looked forward to
by our theatre goers.

game at Evansville and then In all the
games at Springfield. l believe that not
only some Of the umpires were fixed,
but that some of our best players-I
don't care to mention names-have been
tempered with. / don't know of any.
thing else to say now, except that base
ball looks blue in Davenport now, not
withstanding that we have given the pub
lie a good club and as good games until
today as anywhere in the country"
Davenport wrongly withheld the guar
antee money due Springfield yesterday
until the future course of the club is de-
cided. The directors claim that McGin~
mis- could have umpired yesterday, but
that he did not as part of scheme. and
that he remained here on the same ac-
count that he did while the club was
playing in Springfield and when it was
claimed he was sick.
The directors Of the Davenport asso-
citation held meeting this morning and
decided to disband unless Secretary
Prichard. of the interstate league. gives
them certain rights which they are enti-
tied to-such as ordering Umpire Hunt
away from Quincy before the Davenport
club plays there. and of crediting Daven-
port with two games won from Evans,
vile in Davenport, and at which Mr..
Fitzgerald acted as umpire. The first of
these games was umpired by Fitzgerald
by agreement Of the two captains, and
the latter by telegraphic instruction from
Secretary Prichard himself. Afterwsrd
President Ridgley. Of the Springfields,
who is also president of the league, by
the way, protested the two games with
Evansville on the ground that
Fitzgerald was a home man, and
Secretary Prichsrd agreed to throw
them out. The directors of the
Davenport club have telegraphed Mr.
Prichard their position and unless they
receive a satisfactory answer. will dis
band tonight. when a meeting of the
stockholders will be held.
II is an indisputable fact that there is
large part of the Davenport ball going
public who don't know how to behave
themselves and who make themselves
very obnoxious and make it extremely
disagreeable to people inclined to order
and decency. but the association is
not to blame for this and in the present
trouble it seems to have the management
Of the entire league pitted against it. The
Davenport club has given us good ball
gsmes-it has the best club in the league
and if given fair play can win the pen.

The newspaper man who wrote the fol-

a town is not guarded by the wealth of its
inhabitants, but by the uniformity with
which they pull together when any i'm
portant undertaking is to be accom-
plished. A man with thousa nd dollars
at his command and love for his town
in his heart can do more for the building
up and improving Of it than the million,
aire who locks up his capital and snaps
his fingers at home progress"
