Argus: l read in your last nights
paper letter in regard to petition
which is being circulated among bus
mess men, asking the mayor to take
the lid off. AS | am one of the two
parties who are accused of committing
such a terrible offense, am compelled
to explain to Rev. Dr. Marquis that |
am doing what | am for the best in
terest of the public in general, morally.
religiously and financially l wonder
if it ever occurred to DR. Marquis that
it is the common people of our city who
want things restored to where they
were prior to Nov. 20, 1905; that it is
the laboring man and mechanic who
want that accommodation Sunday, AMI
they want it badly To illustrate that
| know what am talking about, l can
show that twice the number of people
want that accommodation on Sunday
that do any other day in the week.
l find no trouble at all to get bust
ness men to sign that petition. On the
contrary, they are all, with very few
very eager to do SO, and |
am satisfied in my own mind that it is
the will of an overwhelming majority
of the people of our city to have things
restored to where they were

arranged so that Rock Island both
opens and closes away from home.
Travel in Quarters.
The teams travel in quarters instead
of halves, that is, but two from the
northern circuit go to the south end at
one time and vice versa. In this way
the home series are made shorter and
while the mileage is somewhat greater,
interest is increased and kept more
pronounced throughout the season. 1t
is also provided that all teams have
their openings at home not later than
May 10. There are six conflicting

travelled less than six inches, and then
through Dicks guard and jolted his
head back with sickening regularity.
Strong on Defense.
Rhodes would bore in with head
down, taking the hot shot that Dick
sent at him. At times he appeared to
be wide open and Dick would slam
away, usually to find a glove between
his fist and the point of his attack. or
else find that the head he aimed at
slipped out of range.
Dick tried hard and landed many
hard ones to the head and body Once
in the eighth round Dick staggered
Rhodes with a hard right on the jaw.
Then Rhodes showed some freak stall

left outstretched. Dick followed him
around the ring and tried hard to land
a knockout, but was unable to do So
When they came out for the next
round Dick started rushing. but found
Rhodes waiting for him and ready to
mix matters.
Rhodes Does Hustling.
Soon the tide of battle shifted back
again. Rhodes hustled Dick along the
ropes and working in his short punch
es with telling effect. and soon he had
Dick on the run again. Again in the
18th round Dick made a squirt and
shook Rhodes up with a right to the
jaw, but Rhodes came back quickly
with renewed strength and evened
matters up again. At the end of the
round he was the aggressor and was
chasing Dick around the ring
Rhodes is a rough fighter and was
warned several times for heeling in the
early part of the fight.
Dick also was warned for fouling, |

Billy Rhodes of Kansas City defeated

The westerner showed a wonderful
and weird style of fighting that had
Dick wholly at sea most of the jour

constant agrressiveness justly earned
Referee Pollock's decision.
Rhodes showed a style much like
that of George Gardner in his palmiest

this contention and promised to use
his efforts to apply remedy. fft
Minutes Criticised.
Early in the meeting the minutes OF
the Chicago meeting as read by Score
tary Thumler came in for criticism. 1t
was found that they failed to mention
a number of important measures that
those present knew to have been pass
ed. These were corrected and finally
approved. s
The motion to reject all schedules
was made by Mr. Hayes after Presi-
dent Holland had declined to rule on
the point of the constitutonality of the
one declared adopted by mail vote.
This had been debated with consider
able spirit.
The result of yesterdays meeting is
noteworthy in that it served as sharp
rebuke for the Bloomington dope ar
fist whose efforts to give the league
something that it did not want i'll the
way of schedule ana to create and
aggravate a misunderstanding, have
been obvious to all fair minded observ-
ers. President Holland can do much
to check this individuals capacity to
do harm, and it is believed that he is
now aware of the true state OF affairs.

NEW TALKING MACHINE.
santa Fe Watch Company Has One
with Remarkable Capabilities.

An entirely new invention in talking
machines is on exhibition at the Santa
Fe Watch company. Aux-e-to-phone
IS the name which the Victor manu-
their latest triumph in sound repro
ducing instruments.
The invention OF this machine is
due TO a European genius who by the
use of compressed air has completely
done away with the braSSy sound so
Objectionable in the ordinary machine
Even vocal music is waited out on the
air almost as clear and sweet as when
it first came from the throat of the
artist The volume of sound easily
fills a large hall but is not disagreeable
in a small room.
The Aux-e-to-phone of the Santa Fe
Watch company IS the only one west
OF the Mississippi and only the thirty
first in existence. Owing to its COM
pIicated mechanism the new Invention
is expensive. costing $500, but such is
its great superiority over all other
things of its kind, the firn reports
many orders already coming in from
the east, where 1t IS better konwn
An entirely new principle has been
applied to the well known law of re-
production Of recorded sound waves
as exemplided in the ordinary talking
machines, the pneumatic principle
used in pipe organs and other musical
instruments, an auxiliary power which
leaves out, loses, browns the friction
of the needle upon the disc. But not
by mere increase Of sound, not at all,
for if that were so the noise would be
deafening. The music conveyed by
the needle to the sound box is given a
current of rushing air to carry its
melodies, to dfffuSe itself upon. The
resound ant horn sound IS diminished
and the pure music floating forth on
the air is alone heard. All disagree
able sounds are smothered and the
full round tones of the singer or
orchestra are heard clearly, naturally
and without distraction. There Is
actually much more music but there
seems TO be no more sound. at least
none of the piercing. stunning charac-
ter.

Lawrence Eleven Expects to Defeat
Oklahoma

Lawrence, Kan, Oct. 19.-The Jay
hawkers have been put through a hard
siege of scrimmage work this week in
order to develop their defensive work
and also to work out a few new plays.
Pleasant the man who has taken
Rouse's place at end, sustained a
wrenched knee and as a consequence
will be out Of the game for 8 week or
two. Fortunately, Rouse viii be in
fair condition by Saturday and will be
placed at his old position. Since the
game with the ''RazOrbacks' Saturday,
the Jayhawker camp has been over
confident and as a result Oklahoma
may give the Kansas men a run for
their money
Last year there was even money all
over the state that Oklahoma would
win the game. The K. Z. men then
settled down and worked with snap
that ran the score up to SO to 0. This
year the Oklahomans expect to score
by hard fighting and may surprise the
Kansas rOoterS. However, the Jay
hawker defense should be impregnable
to the "Sooners'' line plungers. 1t is
a prOverb at K. U. this year that You
can't drive a tack in the left side of the
line" The "Razorbacks" fell down
every time they attempted to hit the
left side and made all their gains on a
peculiar line buck that Longman, the
crack Michigan coach, taught them.
The quarterback question is between
Angney and Coulter with the odds in
favor of Angney.
