 PAPKE vs. KETCHELL.
 Ever since that twenty round battle between Billy Papke and Stanley Ketchel was pulled off at San Fran cisco there has been a dispute as to which man really won it. Papke, his manager and his friends all insisted at the time that the referee robbed the Kewanee boy when he gave the decision to Stanley Ketchel. Some who saw the fight said it should have been called draw. The motion pie lures of the contest which will be shown at Jackson's on next Wednes- day matinee and night, will serve to give local fans an opportunity to judge for themselves.
 "THE THIEF.''
 The most talked-of play of last sea- son, "The Thief will be played at Jackson's, on next Thursday evening for a single performance The Thief is a drama of incident, suspense and excitement.
