"Uncle Josh" Is Coming, "B' Gosh"

Uncle Josh Perkins" clever rur-
al comedy will be in evidence
at the Grand Opera House Saturday
afternoon and evening. AS a play 1t
is said to be wonderfully original in
construction and possess many thrill
ing situations, while pathos and hum
or intermingle all through the story,
everything coming out as 1t should
at the end. The scenic pictures, di-
vided between Uncle Josh's" farm in
Vermont and New York City, is one
of the features of the play. Not
withstanding the numerous numerous
situations, the author has never once
allowed the plot TO be lost sight OF,
which combined makes the play one
of intense heart interest. The theatre
clientele can turn out in force to see
"Uncle Josh" with the assurance that
the play is all that it should be. at
least that is the verdict accorded 1t
in every town and city visited so far
this year.

NEW YORK. July 11.-Saratoga is to
have a race meeting as usual this year.
The plans for the meeting were never
abandoned, but there was a feeling in
some quarters that the association might
try to escape responsibility in view of the
anti-betting law. The association. how
ever. has gamely decided to go through
with its meeting under slightly altered
arrangements.
There will be eleven days of sport at
the Spa, and possibly more. As Secre-
tary Erlocker says the association knows
1t is facing loss, still If 1t doesn't reach
stupendOuS proportions, and the neces-
sary other arrangements can be made.
the meeting is likely to be heightened be-
yond the eleven days planned at present
To go on with the meeting as scheduled
the association had to use the blue pen
Gil literally on the original stake pro-
gram.
Fifteen stakes on the fiat and four
steeplechases had to be cut out. among
them the Great Republic, the Saratoga
handicap, the Saratoga cup, the Mer-
chants and Citizens handicap. the Cham
pion and so on to the number of fifteen.
OF these five will be reframed under diff
ferent conditions, meaning a reduction

which will be worth 81 800: the Merchants
and Citizens, $1JOO: the Catskill $1,000.
and the Beverick steeplechase Of $1,000
value.
The big stakes that remain intact are
the Hopeful, with value of $35 600; the
States Hotel stakes of $4,000. the $4,000
Grand Union, the Flash of 5000, the
Travers of $780, won by Frank Gill last
year, and the Alabama. worth 5000.

DR.. Mike Powers Quip.

OF all the quick-t thinking base ball play
ers in the game today perhaps there is
none who can exceed DR.. Powers, the
catcher of the Athletics. when it comes
to handing 'em out to you right off the
reel. Mike Powers is also one of the
most popular as we'll as gentlemanly men
in the business. and as disciple of har-
mony he leads all the rest.
He it was who used to hold our eccen-
trio friend RUDE Waddell so we'll in check.
for Mike has humor all his own and his
facetious sayings were greatly appreciated
by the big pitcher, while as a jOllier the
Doc had em all skinned when Waddell
was doing his great stunts for the Ath-
letics. Between jollying and diplomacy
he managed to hold the eccentric RUDE
down to work. and this was no child s
play. either.
One day Mike and Waddell were seated
together in railroad car that was bear
ing them on to Chicago, and both the
players were reading the kind of novels
that are sold on the choo-choo cars, when
Rube came to something that puzzled
him. for he stopped reading and began to
scratch his head. Finally, the matter be-
coming too great for his comprehension,
he looked at Powers. and Mike, happening
to catch the big twirler'S eye, asked him
what the trouble was.
"Why, l want to know said Waddell.
what is the knight of the bath?'
"Why. Saturday night, Of course shot
back Powers, with just the slightest sus-
picion of grin overspreading his genial
features.

Tommy Corcoran. the shortstop, nabbed

Falkenberg's Hard Luck.

That base ball is a game that is full of
surprises at almost every turning is well
proved by the incidents which arise in
every game pulled off in either major
or minor league, or, in fact, in any old
league. Aside from the many unlocked
for exigencies that arise, there is also
the great extent in which luck is a fac
tor. when stiff battle is going on be-
tween two well-matched clubs.
The Washington club while on its west
ern trip was supposed to have experienced
more hard luck than any base ball aggre-
cation In the history of the game, and
this was no doubt the case for the local
boys certainly did run into the gaff game
In punches, and to illustrate this, l may
mention game that the Nationals play
ed in st. Louis With the WaShingtons
a couple Of runs ahead during the last
innings of the game. Falkenberg was
sent in to relieve Burns. and as there
were a couple of st. Louis players oc-
cupying the bases and Tom Jones at the
four balls on Jones, in order to keep him
from getting a hit OF course. this was
the correct play, and Falkenberg tossed.
up one to Jones that was so high that
Tom had to jump in the air and hit over
handed at the spheroid. To the wonder
of all, he safely connected with the horse
field for hit.
This put three men on the bases and
Hope Ferris at the bat. Falkenberg toss
stlll higher than the one he had thrown
Jones. and Ferris did the self-same trick
mat Jones had pulled off, Two runners
came home and the ST. Louis men won
the game But just think of men hitting
overland at ball. and getting awaS
with the play twice in succession win,
hlhg the game with the stunt. and tnen
say there isn't luck in base ball.
