her merry campus comrades come to
the Metropolitan theater on Monday
next with the prestige of many record
marks. The demand for seats has
been very heavy. and the signs are
unmistakable that the same great In

ment of this play everywhere is en-
istent here. This play of George AIDES
is popular for every good reason, but
principally because it is thoroughly
American and its appeal is general.

conspicuously successful in the title
role in the east. will assume the part
here. Miss Rutter has been specially
engaged for the western tour of THE
Widow" She is a pretty and talented
young woman, and has achieved a per-
sonal popularity quite beyond her
years. Among the others in the cast

Allison, Frances Chase, Rosalind AL
lin. Elizabeth Van Sell. Helen Torrey,
Robert Kelly, J. Beresford Hollis. Otis
Turner, Alan Brooks, Frank Wunderlee,

MORE MOISTURE.

The jamestown Alert recently call
ed attention to the fact that the in
creased amount of moisture in the soil
was so pronounced at many places in
the James river valley that the ele-
vators which were built few years
ago and which did not at the time OF
construction require any other protec-
tion from the moisture in the pits than
a board cribbing, have found it neces-
sary in late years to remove this crib
bling and substitute for it some better
means OF protection.
This would seem rather far fetched
We're there not some reason for the
changed conditions. Before the soil
was broken the rainfall was unable
to penetrate the soil aud ran off into
the coulees and sloughs. 1t is we'll
known that the native sod OF this
country was almost imprevious to
water, and only since the breaking of
that natural roof has il been possible
for the rainfall to penetrate to the
earth below.
This accounts for the increase in the
amount of moisture in the land now
over that OF few years ago. Not
only is there an increased amount of
moisture available for the growing
crop but the gradual sinking into the
land OF the annual rainfall must in
time change the conditions of the land
itself. a larger quantity of moisture
will be left in reserve and in time this
will make the danger of drouth less.
For as practical fact, there is much
less evaporation in this latitude than
is the case in the hotter climates.
The cultivated surface of the land
which developes a porous condition of
the soil permits the rainfall to soak
into the land. and by this means the
soil is gradually acquiring reserve
moisture which will in time be suf-
ficient to carry the crops over any o,
the drourhs which may be expected in
this as in all other countries. 1t will
probably bring other changes, among
which will be a modification of the
climate in both winter and summer

ball like he was 'fraid of stingin' my

to the fence.

one so hard the ball smoked as it sailed
out to center, an in comes a run.
Take him out says 1 to Josh, an
Josh beckons to Ginger. Ginger stays
right where he is.
Back up" says he to Josh, we're
goin' to win the game"
Then came a regular avalance o
drives in homers. triples, doubles an
then back to homers again.
Let him stay there an get hisn, -
says Josh savagely, when their lead
was so big it couldn't be overcome if
we batted overtime When the score
was SO to Joe Golding, of the Maize
bursts, was so plugged out he couldn't
come up to the plate, but just reeled
round, gasping for breath.
The End of Jonesy.
Here, stop delayin' the game" yells
Ginger, an he appeals to the empire,
shown him the rule book.
The empire calls Golding to bat. but
Joe, staggerin' for want o. wind, Just
lay on the grass an painted. his tongue
hanging out O. his face lookin' apo
plectic.
The empire takes out his watch an
stands over him for all the world like

he swings his arm down an says:
"Alfa1fas' game, 9 to nuthin''.

because they had run so much their

But pride goes before a fall, an
brute force is a tough customer for
even a smart guy to monkey with.
Wen Ginger started in to repeat his

five men with the ball against the
Hayvilles a week later he didn't no.
tice that every Hayviller had a bat.

About the first mail that has come
through from the coast since the earth
quake disaster was received from San
Jose yesterday by Walter Bardgett in the
shape of several souvenir postals from
Tommy Morgan, a weII-knOwn amateur
rider of the saucer track The day after
the quake Morgan secured souvenir cards
of nearly all of the buildings destroyed
and sent them to Bardgett telling him
what had happened to them.
Morgan said Billy BOlle had left San
Jose the day before for Salt Lake via
San Francisco. which would land BoIles
in Frisco about the time of the disas-
ter. Friends of BOlles are now worried
over him and wondering if he missed the
earthquake or got through without in

" 'Shucks, I've heard that story be-
fOre-a couple o. thousand times-this
is Missouri. an you got to show me- -
$50, I'd get turned down, an I come
to the conclusion that if 1 told you
guys what 1 wasn't you might give me
a chance TO show what 1 am
We told him he had played the thing
about right an that he was a ruther
smooth article. Which he was.
As a pitcher proposition he didn't
ring any alarms or make Reggie run
for cover. After I'd tried him out be-
hind the grandstand with the big mitt
an nobody lookin' on I says:
You got a nice, graceful swing an
a pretty good inCurVe, but I dunno
what you'll do when you get into a
ball game"
Don't worry yourself, you big mess
o fresh pork" says he. wen it
comes TO winnin' games. I'll be there.
Remember what L said about stragety.''
SO Josh put him in the next day
against the Cloverdales an JOnesy
takes long swing an sends up that
wicked inshoOt. It ketches the first
batter plump on the forehead an he
drops. They took him away on the
door to the dressin' room o. the grand
stand.
Batter No. 2 comes up. Ginger throws
a ball foot outside the pan, an l sig
nal for an in. Up she comes. ketches
the hospital route, too, only this time
on the door to the ticket office.
No. Gets His.
With two men on bases batter No. 3
walks in and this time Ginger pitches
two wide ones. Then I signal for an
in, an this time he plants the batter
just over the ear. The ball shot UP in
the air, an 1 waited to ketch it before
So rif
I got called a wretch, an hard-hearted
an a cold-blooded pirate for takin'
that precaution. An they removed
batter No. on the gate to the Is cent
seats.
Now the bags are full an Josh yeIIs
to Ginger to settle down.
He winds up again. ketches Batter
No. 4 on the neck an he goes out COM
plete, the doctor sayin' his juggler vein
was hit. That's a big vein in your
neck Pinch says mine is a stein or
bother vein because I don't like 70
drink out Of a Jug
Any way, the crowd tries to lynch
the pitcher an he slaves 'em off, say
in l signalled for inShoots. They
started for me, an had to take it on
the run.
Then Ginger Jones gifts up an says
that the Alfalfas claim the game be-
cause the Cloverdales amt got nine
men in uniform on the field They look
around, and sure enough there's only
eight.
So the umpire, though he didn't
much like to, give the game to us. an
the fellers- came home rejoicing. I got
horrible call for allowin' them bat
tiers to be hit an Ginger Jones was
treated as a brainy guy because he
thought of claimin' the game Four
ball players sent word they'd wait for
me with bats the next time we come
to Cloverdale.
