AT THE THEATER

In The Tenderfoot" theater-
goers witnessed last night the second
high class musical comedy of the sea-
son by a company not so excellent in
its Individual merit. but evenly bal
anced, with a player foremost in the
ranks of modern light opera come
dams in the principal role. Indeed,
Mr.. earle had a rare opportunity in
the lines which he so clevrely wrote
with a full knowledge of his own ca
liabilities, 10 say that the music Ia
by II, L. Hertz, would express little
to the average light opera lover. What
fame he has attained rests largely on
this production, and the verdict OF
the public could not have been other
wise than satisfactory to him.
Mr. Carrie Is remembered very pleas
antly from the production of "The
Storks" last winter. which attained
such success throughout the country.
He has that characteristic so often
lacking in a man who knows he has
good thing to say. He waits for
the right moment, catches the mirth
wave on the summit and launches an
other disturbing aphorism Just i'm time
to catch the tide. As Prof. Zachary
Pettibone,H conducting a special tour
of pretty school misses in Mexico, he
is brought in most amusing contrast
with the inhabitants of that country.
The story is well defined throughout
the production
Edmund Stanley, as Col. Winthrop,
had an excellent opportunity for dis
playing rich tenor. and received sew
eral merited encores. The vein of
comedy was in the hands principally
of Mr.. earle. assisted by Cas-. A.
Morgan as 'Sergt, Barker and
Hop Lee, the Chinese servant, clever
ly portrayed by William Rock,
After all. much rests with the cho-
rus in productions of this kind and

SELECTING TEAMS.
How the Church League Decided on the
Six New Clubs,

The directors of the Church Base Ball
League of the District came face to face
with a very embarrassing proposition when
they were at work making up the list of
clubs that would be included in the leag que
this year. 1t has been the determination
from the first to make the league interde-
nominational and to interest both Protest
ant and Catholic There were so many
applications that it was absolutely impos-
sible for the members of the board to
make random selections without incurI ing
bad feeling among the churches. To OBJ
viate this difficulty 1t was decided to take
the first applications received. and accord
ingly the dates and pOstmarks were ex-
amined. The first six applications came
from the clubs that were in the league last
year. and in selecting the next six, accord
ing to rule the directors drew out six more
Protestant churches 1t was the desire of
the board to have a Catholic church rep-
resented in the league. If possible, but the
first application received from a Catholic
Church was fifteenth on the list These
applications have been filed In regular Or
der, and IL any of the clubs now selected
withdraw from the league their places will
be filled by taking the first from the lis.
The directors feel keenly their position
and desire that the public shall be made
fully acquainted with the circumstances
The matter of organizing another six-club
league under the same management was
discussed. principally to relieve the direc-
tors from the embarrassing situation in
which they have found themselves.
