Nat. Goodwin differs from Crane in
the matter of extreme variability. and
so, while the title of Father and the
Boys" gave tip and a cue to what
Crane would be i'm the new play. no
mixing of GOOdWin's activities in 1.-THE
Fastener" reached New York before
hand. The oddity invented by Broad
hurst for Goodwin is a wildly unruly
easterner, who travels westerly to
California camp and becomes an earn
est dOer of good deeds in a very lawless
community. There is no harder read
ing than plots of plays, and I wouldn't
undertake to elucidate this one without
genealogical charts. tables of past per-
formances and maps of the neighbour
hood. AS viewed on the stage, though.
Goodwin stands out clearly as man
who takes an appointment as a deputy
sheriff for sport, becomes the boss sher-
if by chance, and in that official ca
pacity saves an innocent young man
from being lynched as murderer. And
as a reward. both sentimental and ma
terial, he gets his beneficiary's sister
for a wife. AS that sister is embodied
by Edna GoOdTich-well, have you seen
Edna? Have your eyes gazed on Edna's
superlative beauty? If yes, then you
can believe readily that the giving of
like an ample reward of merit for Good
win, even though he has jer5ed her be-
loved brothers neck out of a mob's
moose at the risk of his own life. Edna
used to be a choice chorus girl, whose
voice wasn't distinguishable among 9TH
ers, but whose physical loneliness stood
superiority alone i'm any stageful of
beauty. Edna was an alluring sight
outside the theatres in Broadway, also,
until she decided to quit motoring in
that thoroughfare and take to touring
as a star actress on the dramatic road
in 1.-THE Genius and the Model" She
was delighting satisfaction when, as a
model, she stood silent and motionless;
but she couldn't act much, and it wasn't
until Goodwin took up the role of the
genius that the play went well. Good
win retains Edna in 1.-The Fastener"
She is as beautiful as ever, and doesn't
act any worse.

BONUS A BAD THING.

II don't think the Detroits will
repeat this year. Nor do / be-
lieve that Ty Cobb will show up
as well as he did last season. /"
These views were expressed by Man
ager Jim Mcclure, the old war
horse leader of the Boston Ameri-
cans. while at Cincinnati this week.
1.-The Cobb idea" said jim, as
based on the fact that the club Is
offering bonus for batting over
900 and fielding above 900 this
year. That's bad. With no extra
money in sight last season Cobb took
many and many a seemingly i'm
possible chance and landed a num-
Der of them. That made him one
of the most sensational fielders in
the business. With golden bait
hung on the end, the desire for a
good fielding average is certain to
influence his work. OF course, he
will do it unwittingly, but neverthe-
less he will play difficult chances
more safely than he did last season.
And in the batting way it will be
the same. The glare of the gold
will blind him to the needs of his
team and make him work for Cobb.
The result may be larger batting
average, but a decided shrinkage in
his value to his team"

announcement that Red Waller had
jumped the Orators and gone to AL
lentown. Pa, where he is to manage
the team in the New Jersey-Penn-
sylvania outlaw league. Not only
did Red do the rubber leg turn. but
according to statements to friends,
he took with him $50 which Uncle
Jeems had advanced him early In
the winter. And then 10 leave the
Bridgeport sage some solace, Red
hurled this parting shot: 1.-The
trouble is that the league wouldn't
let Jim pay me the money | was
worth TO him. II isn't his fault"
Red has been working both ends
and the middle all winter. He signed
with Allentown, but he signed with
Bridgeport, too. He told Allentown
he would report there. but he told
Jim he would he true TO him. Yes
terday he settled the thing by quit
ting Bridgeport and taking with him
several aspiring players, among
them being some on whom O'Rourke
had figured. Red sized II up this
way: I'VE won't be playing ball
all the time. and we might as well
get il when it's coming"

field yesterday after visit to Fred
Clarke's ranch for his home in
Pittsburg, while the team left for
Coffeyville. His departure wrecks
the last hope that Wagner would
play with the Pirates this season.
Before his departure Wagner said:
II simply came to Kansas to full
fill promise l made Clarke some
time ago that would come here at
this time, and would play with the
boys in his home town in an exhibit
tion game. have fulfilled this
promise, and am going back home.

ing here, and | am only sorry if any
one got any such impression, for
really do not intend to play ball this
year. This is final" Fred Clarke
has more trouble. Tommy Leach,
former star third baseman of the
Pittsburg team, who had been sent
back to third base in practice this
spring, has declared that he will
never again attempt to play an in
field position. 1t was one of the
conditions made by Leach when he
signed with Pittsburg that he should
not be asked to play shortstop in
place of Wagner, nor should he be
asked to play. other than in the
outfield, where he has been for al
most two seasons The team was
in such bad shape, however, that
Leach consented to try third base
until June, when Storke will be out
of college. The corner was too
much for the little fellow. who is
now In his Goth year In professional
baseball, and he has gone back TO
the outfield. Leach quit third base
in the middle of game at Winfield.
Kan, Tuesday, saying he had enough
of the infield, and another man had

SCIENCE AGAINST STRENGTH.

A wrestling match to a finish has
been arranged between Eugene Ro-
bare of Springfield and Barney The
riaque of Chicopee Falls, the bat
tie being billed for Thursday night
in De Gray's hall, Chicopee Falls.
1t will be contest of science against
strength, as the Springfield boy
weighs but 1874, while Theriaque
weighs 172 and Is we'll known as a
strong man and weight litter.
The men met before, when The
riaque was supposed to throw Ro-
bare twice in an hour, but the big
chap secured only one fall, and it
took 81 minutes to get that. The
coming match will be best two in
three. Two preliminaries will be
put on. Frank Bushey and Igmac
Zajhowski will be the principals in
one and Leslie Wells and George
Roy in the other.
