"A MESSAGE FROM MARS"

A successful play always attracts
great attention. An unsuccessful
one is taken from public view, it's
properties placed in the storehouse
and that's the end of it. A play
that can interest London theater-
goers for three consecutive years
and New York theatergoers for two
consecutive years, must necessari-
ly be considered, not only success
but a great success. This is the
record of the comedy, "A Message
From Mars" which will be seen at
the Spokane tomorrow night for
the first time. 1t will also be the
initial appearance here of a new
star in the dramatic armament,
David Proctor, who halls not from
Mars, but from the earth. He was
born in Illinois and Is relative of
the great astronomer, Proctor, who
died about twelve or fifteen years
ago. The young actor is also rel
alive to Senator Proctor Of Yer
mont. Mr.. Proctor Is surrounded
by a capable supporting company,
many of whom were players in the

LONDON, June 14.-To under
stand the present baseball move
ment in Great Britain it is neces-
sary to briefly recapitulate the fail
ure Of two previous attempts. Sew
eral years ago one was made by
A. G. Spaiding, who brought two
crack teams to play exhibition
matches in England. The games
were too fast for the spectators to
grasp the fine points.
The second attempt was made by
r. G. Knowles, the music hall
comedian, and his failure was due
to the fact that he used American
players. The organizers of the
present movement are profiting by
these two failures.
They reason that If the game Is
ever to become popular in Britain,
It's popularity must be brought
about by the fundamentally Of
British clubs and British players.
In London they have got the very
material they need. To understand
the position you must recognize the
wonderful hold which football has
obtained within the last six years
on the London public. In the met
ropolitan area there are scores Of
big professional clubs, and a gate
Of 10000 Is not uncommon at their
matches. In fact, one club had a
gate of $4,000 for recent game.
These football grounds lie absolute
ly idle from May 1 till September
l. since cricket cannot be played
upon them. These various football
teams have created crowds to whom
cricket does not appeal. They
want something as lively and as
full of snap as football.
The organizing secretaries 'of the
British Baseball association have
grasped the significance of these
facts, and so have set about intro
ducing baseball through the foot
ball clubs of London. They have
had little difficulty in proving to
the various arrangements that
there was everything to gain and
nothing to lose In giving the game
a trial. All the officers of the as
ISOLATION, save one, are British
born.
