WASHINGTON

There have been handcuff kings
and all that. but Manager Blakeslee
next week. beginning Sunday,
comes to the front with Sirronje,
handcuff queen, defer of locks,
manacles and cells, female Rafhes
and sorceress. Sirronje looks
scornfully on all methods of i'm
prisonment, shaking shackles with
ease. Moreover, she agrees to let
anybody nail her in a strong box
and then emerge triumphantly
therefrom in three minutes. 1t Is
suspected that she possesses a ST.
pernatural pull Of some sort, and
the management takes no chances
on denying 1t. The queen invites
everybody to bring along their
handouts and chains and try them
on her. There is another big act
on the bill called Around the
World in an Airship," in which
four singing Young men present a
high class sketch. The Herberts,
three acrobatic brothers of inter-
national fame. appear in clever
exhibition of strength and training.
A novelty is announced in THE
Actress and the Maid, presented
by Ezier & Webb, both women.
They are clever and the absence
of q man In the act Is a pleasant
variation. Musical comedy Is put
on by Gardner & Stoddard, former
stars. They have first class pro-
gram of light entertainment. The
pictures show two subjects, The
Drummers Day Off" and "rhe
Idler."

BRADLEYS MAKE
INDIANS GO SOME

Teddy Roosevelt seems alto
gether out of pitching form, and
yesterday even the amateur Brad
ley team from the City league
pounded him for nine hits. AL
though the Indians won the game
they certainly earned it. Roose-
welt couldn't help his team any, so
the boys had to keep the young
sters down by fast playing. And
that kid they had pitching, Joe
Seaton, has a whole lot of profess
sional twirlers bested. His slow
drop had big, hard-hitting Clynes
on his staff. Clynes didn't get a
hit during the game. Little Mackin,
however, seems to hit any sort of
ball. He got only three doubles
and one single cut of four times at
bat. He got four of the six hits
the team made. Chandler got a
two Dagger and Kippert a single.
Score: Bradleys 2, Spokane 4.

LIVELY GAME ON
cONzAcA GROUNDS

The S. A. A. C. team had live
ly time last evening in winning a
game from the crack Gonzaga col
lege nine. The college was out in
force to root for the team, and
they did 1t in dazzling manner.
But the club boys touched up the
college pitcher, Van Hommissen
for seven hits while Edmenson
held the students down to three
and the S. A. A. C. won by to
2 score. 1t might have been shut
out but for dropped fly in left.
Something of a row arose over
too enthusiastic college boy inter-
fering with the S. A. A. c. in right
field. A man ran in home on
it. but the umpire sent him back
to third.

been arranged. The program will
start at 10 o'clock sharp at the ball
grounds. and at o'clock in the
afternoon there will be a ball game
between the Bradleys and the
Slater e Slater's team.
The management of the park is
now busy preparing to open new
show within the next few days. The
attraction will be known as the
Eden Musee and will be pattern
ed after the famous New York
show of the same name, some of
the exhibits having been secured
from the Gotham show. The wax
figures will show the methods of
torture that We're in vogue in early
days.
The box ball alleys at the park
are becoming more popular every
day, and are generally crowded by
lovers of the sport. The game is
one that is growing in popularity.
The Sunday afternoon concerts
draw good crowds. The big or
chestrian renders concert selec-
tons in a way superior to that of
many bands.

for him. Frank Smith, who mixes
baseball medicine, wired Bill yes
terday that the money was for
keeping Spokane on the map"
