THE STAGE

The coming OF Little Johnny Jones"
to the Grand next Tuesday is being
construed as an event by the legion
of followers of that fayortte playhouse.
Little Johnny Jones" is one of the
most successful musical comedies that
has yet emanated from the pen of that
gifted author.actor.playwright Geo. NJ.
cohan. It's success all over the coun-
try has been phenomenal. and its en-
gagement at the Grand bids fair to be
record breaker
This is the Number One Little
johnny Jones" company, with big
cast OF principals. Then there is the
chorus, the dear, delightful, bewitchinG
Cohan chorus, who are always good
to look upon, who can really sing, and
who work with all the vim and fervor
that ever characterize a production
presented under the Conan banner.
Then there are two carloads of elab-
crate and exquisite scenic, electrical
and costume effects. In fact, it is quite
within the bounds of reason to say that
Little Johnny Jones" is the most
thoroughly equipped, carefully pro-
duced and up-to-date musical comedy

Mayor Smith
SAID LET THERE BE LIGHT AND
EVANSVILLE WILL HAVE
LIGHT,

At a recent meeting of the Barns
Vile council It is said that Mayor
Jim Smith said we are going to have
light and that the councIlmen, of that
corporation supported him. A canvass
was made OF the places that need to
be lllumined and It was found that
eight arc lights and eighteen big gas
lights would fill the needs. Some OBJ
jected to so many lights saying that
the slogan of the campaign was the
economical expenditure of funds. This
argument was brushed aside when 1t
was made known that the Fairmont-
Clarksburg Traction Company could
furnish 1--WE arc lights free and that
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Com
pany would furnish three arc lights
free. Tho expense would be small for
the eighteen gas lights.

them seemed to jump aside just as it
ward, another inward, and the third
seemed to rise. Maybe I'm beginning
to see things
1T puzzled Jewell, the catcher, too,
not to speak of AL Mills, the umpire.
Jewell caught all of the balls because
1t was then the custom for the catcher
to stand far back and catch on the first
bounce, but 1t made him dizzy.
1.-THE second batsman Of the Junior
Nationals went to the bat and wal
loped the air three times too. AL
Mills came up close to the plate to see
what was wrong. 1t looked to him as
IL Cummings were wild.
"'Just keep your head there he said
to the third batsman, and you'll get
your base on balls
This third batsman had q steady
hand, and, sure enough, he got his base
on balls. Cummings pitched the ball,
and 1t seemed to be coming straight
for the plate, when suddenly, just as
1t was ten feet or so away, it curved
out and missed the plate by q foot.
Mills called q ball.
"The next ball came straight on, but
the batsman, hoping to hit it and profit
ing by his experience, swung his bat
far out. But, instead Of curving out
like the last one 1t seemed to jump.
1t crossed the plate on n level with
the batsman's eyes.
That scared him, and he just stood
there without making n move until a
succession Of wild balls sent him to
first base. The fourth batsman struck
out 50 easily that 1t was pathetic.
"Well, sir, Cummings began to get
more control over the ball after that
first inning, and Mills had to admit
that 1t was coming over the plate; but,
except by accident, not q single Junior
National batsman could touch 1t. 1t
to side. Mills rubbed his eyes and won
dered how the thing was done. Cum
mings merely smiled.
"In the fifth inning one Of the Ma
tionals by dumb luck landed on the
sphere and drove it into the next coun-
ty. There were two men on bases at
the time, and this home run brought
them home. That gave the Nationals
three runs. SO far as L know, they
made no other runs in the whole game.
after it was all over the whole
town buzzed about Cummings queer
pitching. AS for him, he was as silent
as the grave,
CHOW do you make the ball curve?'
asked q hundred persons.
"'Does it curveT Cummings would
say, innocent-Iike.
"And then he would shut up and be-,
come Il clam.
"Whcn he got back to New York he
was signed by the champion Athletics
and became their star pitcher. Other
pitchers watched him and got on to
the trick, but it was three years before
anybody did it as well as he. During
those three years his team kept the
championship.
"And that, so far as I know, is the
story Of the origin of the curve BALL.

THE BASEBALL CURVE
An Old Timers Story Of the
Game That First Saw 1t.
1T WAS USED BY AN AMATEUR

According to This Old Professional
Player, Arthur Cummings Was the
Young Pitcher Who Was tho oriei-
nator of the In and Out Shoots.
Speaking about the early history Of
baseball the other day, an old time
professional player said there were
many things not known generally.
There Is, for instance, the matter Of
curve pitching. Who pitched the first
curved ball? No; don't name any OF
the men that won pennants and got
$4,000 n year. The pioneer wasn't a
professional. but mn amateur-that 10,
he was an amateur until his curves
made him famous.
His name was Arthur Cummings,
and he was a New York boy, a tall,
thin young fellow with hair rs blond
as n chorus girls. How he came to
discover curve pitching I don't know,
but 1t was generally believed after
ward that he hit on it by accident.
He tried 1t out for the first time in
1867 in n game between two scrub
teams in Washington.
"The famous Excelsior club Of New
York was then visiting Washington as
the guest of the old National club, and
the two played n series Of games on
the old White lot. Toward the end Of
the series some N suggested that the
young New Workers who had come
over with the Excelslors make up a
scrub nine and play a nine Of Wash
ington boys rs a sort Of comic inter.
lude.
"The suggestion was adopted, and the
New York nine consisted OF four or
FIVE Excelsior substitutes and a mum.
Der OF other young fellows, among
them Arthur Cummings. The Wash
ington nine was made up in the main
Of players belonging to the Junior Ma.
t%lonals, the crack amateur team OF
Washington.
Cummings was a rising young pitch
er, but no n thought hat there was
anything remarkable about him, and
the Junior Nationals prepared to knock
him out OF the box. But when the first
batsman famed out the Washlngto-
mans began to look surprised.
ITS the darndest thing 1 ever saw

The line is fastened to stout bam-

caught when the vessel is making eleven
knots. Fish as large as rs pounds are
