I'm Wyoming," is the name of the
great play of William Mack's which
is to appear at the Wenatchee thea
/ ire next Monday evening. Love, pa
thOS, treachery and retribution, witt
a final happy outcome, are the mair
elements of In WYOMING coined,
drama of the northwest. The stor!
is one of interest, interpreted by
, large company, and mounted with
realistic stage settings. The 81
is laid near Casper, WyO. The play
Is free from exaggerated and impos-
slble nonsense, such as abounds onl,
too often in western plays 1t is all
clean and wholesome. It's atmosphere
is refreshing and there is nothing
suggestive in the story it unfolds.
The company playing In Wyom-
ing has had a very successful run
on the coast during the past month,
and the papers have contained very
complimentary notices of the play.
The following is press notice from
the Spokesman-Review of recent
date:
While no great originality or plot
can be claimed for In Wyoming"
at the Spokane last night, the char
acters are strong and typically west
ern, and the acting of the principal
parts is good. The play was pre-
sented at popular price and made
an unmistakable appeal to the audi
ence, which applauded every climax.
The scene is, of course, in Wyoming
The Daily ranch shows the usual
quota of cOwpunchers and the advent
of the eastern school ma'am fur
nishes the opportunity for the love
and the quarrels which provide the
plot. Although the story just es-
capes the melodramatic, it does es-
cape it, and the recital of the love
affair of Bob Ricketts, and Jennie
Summers and of her abduction by
Steve Gordon holds the interest of
the house for three hours
'Of course, the villain is pursued
by Bob Ricketts,, captured by him
ingle-handed in the mountain pass
and held until the arrival of the Pin
kerton detective. Miss Jennie, who
takes her abduction coolly, processes
her faith in her lovers prowess and,
as we'll, her respect for the villain
The posse of ranchers finally ar
rives and takes Steve away to face
charges of cattle stealing and MUIR
der as well as kidnapping.
Bob Ricketts, is played by Cecil
Kirke, who gives the part simple
manliness and a cool efficiency APP
propriate to the hero of a western
drama. Steve Gordon, as played by
Nelson Leavitt, is more than the pic
turesQue cowboy of fiction and the
stage. His ability to roll a cigarette
with the fingers of one hand is thor
oughly in keeping with the character
and is one of the minor details which
show the painstaking effort to re-
produce the western atmosphere
Frank Patton as Hank Jones and
Herbert Rawlinson as Dave Daily
deserve only praise for the manner
in which they play their parts.
Harriet Dunsmore, as Jennie
Summers, the schoolma-am, is good,
although her conception of the east
ern girl in the rapid succession of
adventures in some places is lacking
in expression. Marie BOnsall as Mrs.
Daily, the wife of the owner of the
ranch and the matronly overseer of
the cowboys. is undeniably good.
Her placid acceptance of their pranks
and her smoothing over of the diff
cult incidents of ranch life are natu-
raj and well acted

FIRED AT BALLOON.

Brattleboro. Vt. June 26.--Dep- uty Sheriff Davis last night arrested William Murphy and Charles Riga man on the charge of assault with intent to kill Charles ]. Glidden of Boston and Leo Stevens of New York. both aeronauts. Last Friday when Glidden and Stevens were passing over the outskirts of this place in the balloon Boston" two rife shots were fired at the alrship, one passing completely through the gas bag, while the other glanced of without doing any injury.
 The aeronauts were somewhat alarmed and hastily opened the valve and descended in a mountain pasture. They were unable to sec who had been doing the shooting. but they thought the bullets came from the direction of large white barn. 4 reward of s100 was offered by the Aero club of America for in- formation leading 10 the arrest and conviction of the aSsailants. and as the result of an investigation by Deputy Sheriff Davis Murphy and Rigaman were arrested.

BASEBALL NOTES.

That is, the kind of ball playing that will make the fans stand up and will end the chatter of ham, mers.
 Frank Mcfarland, who pitched in the west for several years, has attached his name to Waterbury contract and may be tried out to- day against New Haven. He is said to be good one, if he has not gone back.
 The Runaways will begin to think after a few more beatings that they are not the whole thing in this whole thing in this league. Spring field should be at the top of this chase anyway but the luck seems to strike the other fellow.
 Baseball Is funny proposition after alll Lynn now wants to re- call Bill Miller, although Manager Durant says he will make Lynn fight to get him. Powell, who has been with Springfield for a month is wanted in the south and another battle Is on.
 Edmundson, who was not good enough for this league, pitched for Wilmington against Johnstown in the Tri-State league the other day and let the team down with two hits. Dan o'Neil says that he Is sorry he could not have got chance to sign the big fellow.
 The Elks team would like to ar range game with some of the strong teams in the city. in order to give them a little practice for the opening of the season here next Fri day. On that day Hartford will be here with Garvan, the old Yale twirler in the box for the Hartford Elks.
 Manager Durant can find a good substitute catcher in Hartford if he wants one. In fact Shincel should have a man ready to take his place in case of injury. There is a husky young chap named Heureux catch ing for the St Thomas Seminary team fin Hartford, who shows all the earmarks of comer.

BEAT ALL RECORDS.

Hammondsport, N. Y, June 26.-- Several hundred spectators just be- fore sunset last night witnessed the most successful flight yet made on the testing grounds of the Aerial Experiment association here. The successful performer was c. H. Cur tiss in his June Bug aerodrome No 3. Under his guidance the June Bug flew 1.140 yards, considerably more than three-fifths of a mile, in just so seconds. All that stopped the flight was the limited area of the practice ground.
 The performance of the June Bug is considered the most remarkable of It's kind on record. The aerial experiment association last night telephoned the Aero Club of America that fl Is now ready 10 try for the Scientific American cup" which is to he given to the machine that of ficially flies the distance of one kilo- meter in a straight line. This dis tance was surpassed last night by i6 yards.

POLICE BEAT ELKS.
New Britain Team in the First
 Practice Game.

New Britain, June 26.-Manager Ted Malone's finest defeated the Elks at baseball yesterday after
 noon at Rentschler's park, 29 to 19. The city officials are now in fear and trembling and will spend all their spare time in practicing for their game with the cops the last of next month. The police who have been long accustomed to swinging Broadway night sticks, yielded the baseball bat. with dead. ly effect upon Chief Dames's far famed curves. The Elks then tried new pitcher, who attempted to kill off the cops as fast as they stepped up to bat. Special Officer Grace, Officer Kelly, Officer Lyon and Officer Connor were struck one after another and limped to their bases. They kept on limping on their beats last night. and Officer Lyon isn't nearly so great an enthu- siast for the national game as he was. Grace and Storey were the effective battery for the cops.

PITCHER POWELL WANTED.
Manager O'NeiI Will Put Up Big
 Fight Against Claims.

After Pitcher William Powell has been with the Springfield team a month, Tom Fleming, for a short time an unsuccessful manager in Holyoke and now manager of the Wheeling team in the Central league, has decided that Powel is the prop erty of Wheeling. Notice to that eff feet has been given to Manager Dan O'Neil by Secretary J. H. Farrell of the National association with a re- quest that Powell be ordered to re- port at once to Wheeling.
 The claim is that the Fairmont club of the Western Pennsylvania league, which won the championship of that organization last year with Powell as it's star pitcher, has sold Powell to Wheeling. While Man agers O'Neii has no reason to dispute the statement that Wheeling bought Powell from Fairmont, he has reason to dispute Fairmont's right to sell the player.
 Powell was drafted from Fairmont last fall by the New York Nationals and unless there is some unknown circumstances, he was free agent when Manager O'Neil picked him out of the disrupted Baltimore Union league team. Powell says he never received a contract from New York, Wheeling or Fairmont for this sea son. If he hasn't, he is certainly in right with Springfield, for which team he has won four out of the SIX games in which he has worked.
 When Manager O'Neil signed Pow ell in Baltimore, notice was sent to Secretary Farrell and now the Springfield manager wonders why, if some club had a prior claim, he has been allowed to keep the player for a month. Powell himself is con- fident he can prove he was a free agent when he joined Springfield. Moreover he says he has letter from the Fairmont manager con graduating him on his showing this season and containing no indication that Fairmont believed it had any right to sell him.

It. takes place tomorrow after noon at 3:30 o'clock at Reidville. What really will happen to the cops when they bump against the news paper men is something of a secret, but there will be buzz in the air every minute.

 Martin Seully. president of the board of aldermen, and Captain Charles R. Ramon of the police de- partment have not shirked their duty and as a result there will be some re- treatments at the grounds. The game will start at S:S0 o'clock and the price of admission has been fixed at-well, everyone will be ad- mitted free.

HARVARD CREW
 WINS BY A MILE.
Finishes Race Alone Owing to
 Yale Strokes Collapse.

New London, Conn, June 26.-With . deafening din of steam whistles and horns and the frenzied shouts of col legians the Harvard varsity eight shot its boat over the finish line, winning from the crippled and distanced Yale crew that classic of American college aquatics, the Harvard Yale varsity boat race.
 Instead of a race Harvard finished the last mile and half alone, while far behind Yale llmped along with but seven men at the oars. with Griswold, the stroke, the man who had en re- lied upon to set the winning pace. bent forward. limp and collapsed with the terrific strain of the opening two miles. Up to this unexpected climax it had been stirring struggle, worthy of the best traditions of the old antagonists and with a fitting setting of a magnifi- cent marine spectacle such as has sell dom been equaled along regatta course for brilliancy and imposing magnitude. For the first time. too, the president of the United States was taking keen and active interest as a champion of the crimson colors. and, although compelled by circumstances to absent himself. the spirit of his en- thusiasm was voiced by the Roosevelt family. who witnessed the contest from the deck of the presidential yacht.
 Old Eli was more fortunate in hay ing her distinguished champion. Secre- tary Taft. present in reality. the cen tral figure of a group of collegians aboard one of the observation trains.
 Earlier in the day honors were di- vided. the Yale four defeating the Harvard four by two lengths. and the Harvard freshmen eight defeating the Yale freshmen by three lengths.

Connecticut League Standing.
NO MORE HOME RUNS.

New Britain, June 26.- Manager w. w. Hanna of the New Britain baseball nine announces that by per mission of the league, balls batted over the left and right field fence, within 50 feet down from the foul line, will count as two-base hits il the future. The side fences are so near that numerous home runs have been made by batting tfieaballs over. where it would have been impossible on the average field. The two-base fence limit is designated on each side by a red flag.
 Manager Hanna denies the story that he intends to hire Tommy Leahy, the polo referee, for. catcher and captain. He does not intend to make any changes in the team. for day or two at any rate, until he has chance to get line on the players. He intends to give every man fair chance.
