Al the Gayety,

The Rose Sydell's London Bellies. which opened a weeks engagement at the Gayety theatre Monday, is conceded by press and public to be one of the strong est and best attractions of its kind be- fore the public. The attraction itself is far beyond the usual run of shows Of this class, inasmuch as it consists of an ag- gregation of high-salaried artists and an expensive olio of headline vaudeville acts, and the scenic, electrical and mechanical effects are without doubt far beyond any, thing heretofore seen with an extrava- ganza or burlesque company.

To the Editor of The Age-Herald: Under head of Ned Brace of Sundays issue, I agree with you, so put me down for $1OO. I think it the best investment a working man can make, and his returns would be greater and more positive than any $l00 he ever spent. He would first in the district who is now paying too much for the necessaries of life, and would eventually, I believe, eliminate all credit buying, which is the ruination of the poor people of our city.

Famous Coach of the University
of Michigan Eleven.)

Famous Coach of the University
of Michigan Eleven)
The greatest series of plays
ever saw on a foot ball field was
that which led to Michigan's only
touchdown in her victorious strug-
gle with Wisconsin in the season
of 1902.
The Badgers were unusually
strong that season, and more than
confident of landing the western
championship. They had not
clashed with Michigan in 1901, but
claimed the championship honors
for that year on an unbroken line
of victories. This condition of af-
fairs gave added Importance to the
contest of 1902. $500.
The game was played at Madi-
son, and several hundred Michigan
rooters accompanied the team to
that city. Thousands of Wisconsin
enthusiasts witnessed the game.
The Badgers kicked off and
Michigan returned the ball to their
own SIS yard line. Then came a
wonderful exhibition. | have seen
Michigan teams win many hard
fought battle; watched them fight
like Titans to turn the tide of de-
feat; but never have | seen them
work with such spirit, dash and de-
termination as they exhibited in
the first few minutes of that Wis
consin game. -.
There were no spectacular plays,
no big gains by fumbling, penalties
or long runs, no goals from the
field. But the way Michigan
smashed through Wisconsin's stone
wall defense and triumphantly
marched down the field was a sight
for sore eyes to see. The men
seemed to work together like a ma
chine. Heston, Jones and Herrn-
stein carried the ball, and although
no single gain of over five yards
was recorded, Michigan gained
something on every down. Wiscon-
sin was carried off her feet, dis
mayed, routed.
AS Michigan neared her oppo-
nents' goal, its husky defenders,
with thousands of Badger throats
yelling encouragement from the
hleachers, put forth tremendous eff
forts to stay the onslaught. But in
vain. The Michigan trio. supported
by perfect interference, were irwin
chile, and within six minutes after
the kick off had carried the pigskin
over Wisconsin's goal line.
A mighty cheer went up from the
crowd in recognition of the greatest
series of plays ever seen on a west
ern college gridiron.

ample stage, with footlight and
scenery arrangements; cork run
ming track; a roof garden, with a
big sand box for the tads; and, adj
Joining the building, there is big
playground, with horses and bars
and swings in it.
For weeks eager crowds of
youngsters have thronged the
thresholds and climbed to the win
dows to peer wonderingly at the
luxury of the appointments. For
weeks they have dreamed of the
moment when they could call the
building theirsvand now the time
has come. The whole squalid neigh
borhood has thrown off it's usual
lethargy and is watching the big
club house with anxious eyes, as
though afraid that such good fot-
tune is only mirage.
But it is there to stay, for the use
of the poor, without costing them a
cent, the best plaything the NUM-
cipality could have given them.

AS the All-American base ball
team for 1908. / offer the following
as my selection:
First Base, Frank L. Chance.
In the field and at the bat he has
few equals, while as a base runner
he stands at the top. He is the
greatest general one could select
for the initial bag,
Second Base, Napoleon Lajoie.
The best fielder in front or on
either side, on the diamond. He
is also slugger, which counts 100
per cent in the business. He has
always been a 800 hitter, and while
not the fastest base runner, will
hold his own with any second
sacker. He is also an adept at
sacrificing.
Third Base, Tommy Leach.

both hard and to lay it down, he
stands above any player who COW
