CHICAGO. May l7.-Sik OLoughlin

here yesterday under peculiar circum-
stances. In the fifth inning Washington
had only eight men in the field. Cap
tain Schlany was deeply interested in
conversation with a Chicago sub and
forgot that he had TO. be at second base
after Washington had been retired.
Manager Fielder Jones was the first
hitter up in this session and seeing the
vacancy around the second station he
stabbed a ball through the position.

called the manager of the Champs back
TO try his luck again. Fielder raised
a big fuss. but OLoughlin commended
that there should always be nine men
in the field. which is right

ing line. Hughes was wild and did not
last long. Oscar Graham. who succeed

partment, and the college men look for
ward to great things next year, when
they have these newcomers out for the
various teams. There are no less than
nine men in the Prep school who ought
TO be capable OF making good on varsity
teams. Carl NilsaCk, captain Of the 1906

Now that the present school year at
Georgetown is rapidly drawing TO
close. the managers of the prospective
teams are busily engaged sizing up the
material they will have ON hand next
year. The past scholastic year has
been a most successful one for George
town i'm all branches OF sport. and the
men expect TO see this seasons record
surpassed by the men wearing the Blue
and Gray, from September. 1907. TO
June, 1908.
The 1906 football warriors acquitted
themselves creditably. and came within
an ace Of winning the Southern cham
pionship. The prospects for next fall
in football are bright, and the rooters
expect to see their gridiron heroes go
through the season without a defeat

gible to play next year.
Good Material on Hand.
Coach Reilly will have an abundance of
good material TO deal with, thus over

prominent at Georgetown the past two
years Captain butcher is planning to
have the men start conditioning them
selves the latter part of the vacation by

they report to the coach they can stand
the elementary work easily and thus
work up TO hard training gradually OF

LYcEUM THEATRE.

The perennial favorite, Florence
Bindley, in new musical drama en-
titled "The Street Singer,' under the
direction of b. L. Forester, will hold
the boards at The Lyceum next
Thursday afternoon to close the week.
Almost every season finds Miss Bind
ley fully equipped with new play,
new scenery and new company, and
this season will be no exception to
the rule. The popular little actress
will be seen as ola Belle Violetta, -
the operate singer, afterwards "The
Street Singer" The company is above
the average and an excellent enter
tainment is assured.
A Melodrama of the Right Sort.
A powerful melodrama of the right
sort, ga Dangerous Friend,' will be

The play comes with the endorsement
of careful critics and with the rep.
utation of being in most cheerful con-
trast with the vicious sort of melo.
dramas that appeal to the worst and
most disorderly instincts of human ma
ture. GA Dangerous Friend" seems
to be thrilling drama that furnishes
excitement of the healthy sort, min.
gled with plenty of good comedy and
the always needed thread of romantic
interest, 1t requires a thoroughly good
play to hold the interest of audiences
through five acts, but it appears that

Wednesday, October 14th, 18th and
10th, the well known and standard
production of Wright Lorimer's "The
Shepherd King This is q strong
biblical drama founded upon the
story of David. The leading charac-
ter is interpreted by Carl Eckstrom,
who many times essayed this part
when he appeared in the leading sup
port of Mr. Lorimer. His impersona-
ton of the role received much COM
mendation and his tour thus far has
received an ovation. The drama it.
SELF is too we'll known to need any
extended comment. 1t is admittedly
one of the most powerful plays that
has been brought out in recent sea-
sons. Its scenic investiture is espe-
cially worthy of note. 1t is one of the
most richly mounted productions be-
fore the public. The costuming is
accurate to history in every respect
and in this way alone the production
is educational. The company is a
capable one in all respects and an
adequate performance of this master
piece is assured.
The Valentine Theatre will offer
THE Blue Moon," with James T.
Powers in the leading role on Friday
and Saturday, October 18th and 18th.
This is sure to be one of the sensa-
tlonal engagements of the season.
This production when originally
brought out created a Juror because
of the lavishness with which it was
mounted and provided with rich cos
tunes and an especially efficient COM
pany. Its success was of the whirl-
wind ORDER capacity audiences greet
ing it everywhere. It's attractiveness
mas not deteriorated one whit since
the opening performance. The same
capable company is retained and the
production is intact. James L. Pow
ers still enacts the leading comedy
role and this is an assurance of an
abundance of fun during the perform
ance. He has few equals in this
capacity and in "The Blue Moon" the
opportunity to reveal his skill in this
direction is abundant. In fact there
are few moments when he is not at
work creating laughter. The chorus
is large and beautifully costumed and
provides magnificent ensemble eff
feet to the group of principles invol-
we'd in the musical comedy story. The
performance of "The Blue Moon" at
the Valentine Theatre will certainly
be ranked among the most popular
ones of the season representing as
they do the rendition of the high class
musical comedy by one of the most
capable companies in that line that
has been gathered together.
