snort, 20 minutes, and little time was
taken out on account of men being
lafd out. 1t was probably the short.
est that has been played here during
the season. The visitors. when tbev
got possession of the ball. always
made gains for time but were nm
eventually held, and at no time did
they approach within hailing distance
of the goal of the locals. Augustana
made the first touchdown within
three minutes of the beginning of
the play, and another was made five
minutes later. \ third and a success
full goal made the score 10 to 0 at the
end of the first half. In the second

to be converted. His orchestra is pre-
eminently American in its remark
able fire and swing. 1t seems to be
positively bubbling over with restless
energy, and to possess an Unsuitable
craving for marches. Regarded from
the musicians point of view, it is re-
markable for the fine tone, the per-
rect balance of the parts, and the al
most machine precision with which it
plays" This is assuredly high praise
but every one who has ever come
within the magic sway of Sousa's ba-
ton Will agree that it is equally as
deserved. Sousa comes here with
the same band as recently
played before the king of England,
and his concert will be given At the

Tim Murphy, who comes to the ILL
nois Saturday. is story teller who
does not pander to an ambition to
fasten all the good stories to himself.
One of his best is an account he had
from an old-time actor of the hum
orous state of affairs which occurred
once in company on account of the
loss of letter which had to be read
at an important point i'm the play.
The company was not an altogether
happy family. and the various mem
bers seized the opportunity To pay off
old scores. When the real letter could
not be found the play had to go ON
just the same, so the stage manager
thrust Il folded sheet of paper into
the hands of the man who had to
read the letter. When he opened il
he found it blank. Say Dad he said
to his supposed parent, there's let
ter for you. you had better read it
yourself. for I'm sure it contains good
news" BLESS me. Tom" said the as
tonished old gentleman in his dilem-
ma. lit is written so badly l can't
make out 4 word of it. Here, Nellie,
you read it," The unsuspecting Nelly
took the letter and seeing it blank
said, mo. father. you had better read
it, I'll go get your spectacles." And off
she went. But the old man was again
equal to the occasion and called after
her, Never mind bringing them Nelly,
I'll come after them" Then he walk
ed off. Fortunately at that moment
the stage manager. having found the
real letter, beckoned the first man to
the wings and passed it to him.

edy and extravaganza theatrical
world, and although of recent years
most of the musical comedy successes
have been of eastern origin, THE
Burgomaster" is a strictly western
production in every detail, being from
the brainy pen of Frank PiNley, the
eminent wit, and Gustav Luders, the
musical celebrity. Roth of these
gentlemen are western products, who
have striven and proven that Ca
sino-"like production can be made
outside of New York. This efferves-
cent oddity is classed as the 10Th
century theatrical freak of fortune,
for it holds the box office records for
runs in Chicago, where it was present
ed for nineteen weeks. New York for
eleven weeks, and in Philadelphia for
seven weeks, also a special run in
Boston for los consecutive perfor-
mances. This is the original "all
star" cast that has been appearing in
the larger cities from the Atlantic to
the Pacific coast for the past two
seasons.
Witness what the English critic had
to say of the march king" and his
men: "The last importation from
America has proved an inordinate sue
cess. Anything more thoroughly and
typically American il would be diff
ficult to imagine. Mr.. Sousa's band is
not a military band at all. 1t is a
Soasa band pure and simple. and that
is the only name one can give it, be-
cause, as far as l am aware, there is
no other body of performers in exN
istence that resembles it in the least.
Its composition is original, ana its
playing is original, and its conduc-
tor is. perhaps, the most original OF
all. We knew his music. of course.

MISSING CASHIER LOCATED.
Found in in Deranged
COnditiOn-OmciaIs Expect to Find
His Accounts all Straight.

Richmond, Va, July 24.-J. r. Green
way the Chesapeake n Ohio cashier,
who has been missing from his office
in Norfolk since Saturday, July 18th,
has been located here, and is now in
Henrico county Jail. His condition is
that of a deranged man, and on last
Tuesday, when ne was taken in charge
by the county authorities he was in a
most pitiable state, mentally and
physically.
An ugly oun IN his throat, inflicted
by his own hands, while in the agonies
OF his delirium, tells the story of his
dethroned reason. At his cell door his
brother. Mr.. Arthur Greenway, who ar
rived in the city this morning from his
home in New York, has spent the
greater part of today, trying in vain
to learn from his unfortunate brother
the story of his wanderings between
the time he left Norfolk and last Tues
day, when he was taken in by the
county authorities. Greenway is held
only as a person non-compos mentis.
There is no criminal charge preferred
against him, either by the Chesapeake
and Ohio Railway Company or the
county authorities, and his appearance
here under these conditions removed
from the minds of his friends any i'm
preston which might have existed
since his unexplained absence that he
was a fugitive from justice. Every
particular so far as car be learned,
seems TO indicate that his disappear
ance from Norfolk was the result of a
general mental collapse.
Comptroller Sullivan, of the Chesa-
peake and Ohio railroad. said this
morning that no investigation d
been made as yet of Greenway's ac-
counts, but that within the next few
days they would be generally audited.
The impression the officials have is
that Greenway's accounts will be found

San Francisco, July 24.-Sporting
men from all parts of the country are
arriving here on every train to witness

event of the kind and the odds have
not fiuctuated from ten to -four in ia
vor of Jeffries. Those who fancy Fitz-
simmons admit that he has the disad-
vantage of age, but argue that he a
led an exemplary life and is younger
today than the average a Of forty.
That he is trained to the hour is beyond
question. FitZsimmons has never made
such preparations for a battle. He is
as fit as a man of his age can be made.
This being known the short enders are
looking upon him as a good investment
Fitzsimmons is full of confidence and
wishes to be quoted as saying that he
will surely win.
Jeffries is in splendid spirit n de-
clarec that there is no possibility of his
defeat.
The arena has received its canvas
canopy and has been declared safe by
the fire authorities and is ready for use.
Nearly 100 policemen will be employed
to restrain the crowd which is sure to
gather around the structure while the
fight is in progress.

New Orleans. July 2i.-The States has
the following:
\ deal has been practically completed
here for the purchase OF the twenty cot
ton presses of New Orleans by wealthy
eastern capitalists. One million dollars
has been deposited in New York in con-
nection with the deal and millions more
are involved in what ) considered one
Of h o important financial trans
actions that ever occurred in the south.
According 10 the terms forty per cent.
is to be paid in cash based on the esti-
mated value OF the property. and sixty
per cent. in preferred stock. upon
which dividends OF five per cent. are to
be guaranteed.
The only hitch in the deal is in the
matter of the presses owned by the
Heine interests of Paris. The Heine's
bat have notified the syndicate tina
they desire to sell outright for cash. 1t
is understood hat the manager Of the
deal has secured options upon every
press upon the terms mentioned.
The negotiations have ceen carried on
very quietly n the names of the cap
ltalists who are financing the enterprise
in the east are withheld. What the in
tentions OF the syndicate are with re-
spect to the property have not been
learned. but it IS suggested that the
deal may have some connection with
the struggle between the square bale
and the oun bale interests in the
south.

The Preacher Boy Disappears.

Willie Jackson, a small negro boy IL
years of age, known about the city as
the preacher boy" m~ysteriously disap-
peared from his home. Nc. I'LL North
Fourth street, Wednesday morning. He
is the son of William Jackson, and as
his parents heard nothing of him yes
terday they are greatly distressed about
him. They are very anxious to n
him and any information as to his
whereabouts will be gratefully received.
Willie Jackson is somewhat a strange
freak. From early childhood he mani
tested a disposition to preach, and free
quently holds forth to colored crowds
on the streets, manifesting a wonderful
knowlcdse of the Bible. Many white
people who have heard him say he is
a prodigy. 1t is said he would never
play with other children and never left
home before without knowledge of his
parents.
