POLES

Odiva, the most marvellous of swim mers. queen of the Samoan pearl-div- CTS will appear at Poli's theatre all next week in her wonderful exhibition of the natatorial art and Bridgeport will have a chance of witnessing the act that is considered the most thrill ling and beautiful or the vaudeville stage. FrUm the time that Odiva makes her appearance. all eyes center on her and well they may, for in the water or out of it she is the personi- fication of grace and charm. Born the dauRhte- of an English sailing master. and bred among the Samoan pearl fishers she typlfies a favorite daughter Of the Angio-Saxon race brought to perfection by an outdoor life on the sun-kissed, wave-lapped shores of Samoa The tank in which her exhi- bition is given is marvel of its kind. weighing 44.O00 pounds. and the scenic equipment represents faith full portrayal by the best scenic artists of America, of the native tropical sur roundingss. There is no class of per son who can be blind to the beauty of ,Odiva, her thrilling high dives and graceful and marvellous feats in the water.
 Though wrestlers of the highest ability, the Frey Twins do not possess the chunky body usually associated with that class of athlete, but are two handsome youths. beautifully built and smoothly proportioned- As the act progresses, the meaning of ev- cry movement and hold Is made clear to the audience and proves an in tensely novel and interesting exhibi- ton.
 Other features of a we'll balanced and attractive vaudeville bill are: Mckay & Cantwell in the breezy satire. "On the Great White Way" Howard Trues- dell & Co.. presenting a delicious farce. "A Corner In Hair" Le Broth CTS & Allen with clever dancing ef- fects. Spink and Agnes Mills. catchy songs and brilliant pinaologues; the Juggling Bannons and the electrograph with new features.

Syndicate Baseball a Curse to the Game Kings Release Brings Sls,0OO - John NJ. Ward For President of the League.

Philadelphia. Nov. 2T.-The National League apparently is going to give syndicate baseball another trial. Yes terday the Philadelphia National Lea que club was sold for $350.0 to a syndicate of which Horace S. Fogel of this city is the head. The principal members of the syndicate are reputed to be Charles W. Murphy, president of the Chicago National League cub, and John T. Brush. owlsar of the New York Giants Murphys declaration that he was not financially interested in the club and that it was controlled entirely by local capital also was re- ceived with mirth-
 With Murphy a stockholder in the Philadelphia club and controlling it's destinies, 1t Is a moral certainty that the Chicagoan has procured another club that will cast its vote against John A. Heydler as president of the National League. McNichol was friend ly to Heydier and had promised Garry Hermann to vote for John As con- tinuance in office. Murphy is Heyd- ler's deadly enemy, and the Chfcagoan means. if he can. not only to defeat him for reelection to the presidency. but to force him out of the National League The sale of the Phillles means that Murphy now has four votes for his candidate for the presidency. John M. Ward. The Chicagoan has lined up with him to unseat Heydler the Philadelphia. Brooklyn and New York club owners. There is no doubt as to how these men will vote. but Murphy Is not so sure of Robison, the St. Louis magnate.
 Fogel. the new president of the club. was a prominent figure in baseball seven years ago. Then he was for three months manager of the New York Nationals Fogel- evolved the brilliant idea of transforming Christy Mathewson into a first baseman. and might have gone through with his scheme only he was fired before he could entirely place it into effect. Fogel managed the Indianapolis club of the National League fin 1887. and claims to have been the discoversr of Amos Rusie- A presidential job is no novelty to him. as he was the execu- tive of the Atlantic Association in 1900. 1t lasted three weeks under Fogefs leadership.
 Johnny Kling reports from Kansas City that he knows nothing of any deal whereby he is to become manager of the Phiilies. He states that 1t Is not his intention to play baseball next season. but if he can be given suffi- cient inducement he will reconsider his plans.
 It was officially announced in Phila- delphia last evening that Kling's re- lease had been purchased from the Cubs for S15.000 on condition that he is reinstated by the National Commis- sion.
 Garry Hermann. chairman of the National Commission stated last even ing that syndicate baseball was a bad present but the commission will take no action in the matter unless he starts playing with the Quakers or some other organized team"
