Yesterdays baseball game between
the Eagles nine and an aggregation
of actors resulted In the decisive de-
feat of the home team. The Eagles
had never played together and some Of
the men had never before donned the
suits on local field. The actors put
up rattling good game and after the
initial inning had things their own
way. In the first the actors started
things by scoring four runs, and the
Eagles retaliated by piling up three
scores. Then the actors settled down
to ball playing, and when the ninth
was finally played the score was 22 to
4. Tom Ross was the first umpire Sc
leoted. He lasted for two innings
Then Fred Brown took a shy at it. but
resigned at the end of the fourth. The

Something like 500 voters are run
ming at large in the city with the
weight of the great crime of negli-
gence bearing down upon them. They
lock just like good men who have OBJ
served the patriotic duty of register
ing, but they are vastly different 1t
is now getting well along to the time
when the books will be closed, and in
the opinion of many only about half
the total vote of the city Is registered.
At the close Of business last night the
registrations totaled ss6 in the city, in
the various precincts as follows: No.
/, ia; No. 2, 141; No. 8, 1853; No. T.,
166; Nc. s, 1T; No. 6, 1903; No. Z, 81.
Despite the fact that there has been a
remarkable increase in the population
of the city during the past two years
and the further fact that the registra-
ton books have been open almost
month longer this year than two years
ago, the registrations are 40 behind the
registrations Of 1909. The books will
be open until the night of Monday
May 1S, and there are. therefore, just
IA days remaining in which voters may
do their duty. AS this is presidential
year, the city ought to poll almost 1900
votes, but the short registration does
not give evidence OF any such show
ing at this time.

RUSSIA NO PLACE FOR COUNT
ToLsTOl

The wealthy class in Russia Is de-
termined that Count Tolstoi, the aged
author and humanitarian shall not
pass through the sunset Of his life in
peace.
An amazing story is told by an
Odessa newspaper of the bigotry and
prejudice of certain classes In that
country against Count ToIstoi While
he was spending the summer In Cash
ra, he occasionally visited a woman
relative Of his who lived In fat at
the seaside resort, Yalta. At one time
he was taken suddenly i'll and was
compelled to remain IN bed for several
days.
The owner Of the house, a wealthy
woman, on hearing Of this. came TO the
fat In rage and demanded that this
goddess. communicated man be ex-
PEELED. when Count Tolstors relative
refused to put him out the proprietress
applied in vain to the police to have
him elected. Then she engaged an
itinerant band to play all day beneath
the window Of the slckroom, while the
servants were sent up on the roof to
beat 1t with sticks
The din was so excrusiating that the
writer had to be carried out for fear
that his life would be endangered
This incident furnishes n striking
example OF attitude Of Russias rich
element toward any champion of
equal rights and Of the poorer classes.
Tolstoi is the iaboring mans friend.
That accounts for his persecution.

Reciprocity Humbua
{ Globe Democracy

{ Globe Democracy
Possibly Governor Cummins OF Iowa
has failed to observe that he is stand
ing shoulder to shoulder with demo-
Gratis AS far as that mysterious nom
descript called reciprocity Is con-
cerned. Democrats want reciprocity
treaties, and plenty of them. so that
the proteCtionist policy may be ripped
up. Governor Cummns favors reci-
procity on the ground Of sundry unin-
telligible conJectures. one of which he
expresses as follows: I'VE can make
treaties with Central and South
America with France. Germany Spain
and Italy, that will immensely increase
our exports OF manufactures to those
countries, so that for every man de-
prived of employment here we can put
to work ten" That is the sort of talk
Missionaries indulge in. Where do the
foreign countries named get anything
out of that knud of reciprocity and
why should they agree to il? They viii
consent to nothing that is not to their
own advantage and gives them at least
haTf of the anticipated increased bust
ness. Governor Cummins fantastic
prediction is that reciprocity will
bring all the manufacturing to this
country.
American manufacturing interests
are doing exceedingly we'll They have
the home market Of 10000 900 consum-
ers, on protective basis, Their ex-
ports last year were the largest on
record. going beyond $500 100000 En-
| gland is plainly moving back to pro-
lection. Joseph Chamberlain's cru
SADIE is taking more and more that
simple form. Governor Cummins says
he is still protectionist, but we are
unable to see the difference, in tariff
matters, between him and the demo-
Gratis in congress who speak and vote
| for reciprocity whenever they get a
chance The governor of Iowa wants
to summon all the earth to a reciproc-
| ity feast At that banquet he will
| find the democraticN party seated at his
right hand and congratulating him on
his appreciated assistance as a tariff
ripper.

Bryan is talking this year AS in
dustriously as he did in 1896 and in
1900. but he is not talking for gate
receipts. He does not announce that
he will attend a certain banquet if his
share of the proceeds is counted out
in cash. There is an economic change
in his attitude toward his party. He
is talking still but he pays his own
carfare. His object now is to force
compromise with the reorganizers
