time he played almost every position
in the infeld He is distinctly a third
baseman, however, and as Harry
Kelley will be back to fill that po-
sition, there was really no use of
keeping Wise. Wise played part of
the season last year with Ottumwa
and his recall by Manager Tighe
raised a big kick there, so mis- re-
turn will probably be an occasion for
rejoicing by the Ottumwa fans.
The Islander manager is also con-
sidering several offers for the SER
vices of Catcher Gus Eng. With Dan
O'Leary behind the bat, Gus would
get few chances to work and this
would be doing him an injustice, as
Tighe believes with a little steady
work Eng would go higher than class
B ball before many years. Gus is too
energetic to like TO loaf on the
bench.
New Man Signed.
The latest acquisition TO the string
of youngsters whom the manager
has signed up for trial next season,
is Fred Fisher. a young catcher who
halls from Buffalo off the same club
which furnished us with Harry KEEL
ley. 1t is hardly expected that Fish

as O'Leary and Eng are on the roll.

NJ. H. Sexton is in the peculiar posi-

only to still be carrying the records
and responsibilities of that office. He
has been waiting patiently for weeks
to transfer his books to AL Tearney of
Chicago, the new executive. Al was

Mr. Sexton could have been seen
vending his way to the business dis
trict before the morning factory
whistles footed this morning. He was
carrying the books that he was pre-
pared to unload on the Chicagoan. In
quiry at the hotels of the tri-cities

corning Tearney. Mike is not a quit
ter. So he hired a taxicab and started
on the rounds of the railroad stations
to inquire if the trains were on SEIZED

and this accounted, in his mind. for
the non-arrival of his successor. Mike

Mr.. Sexton still had the books at

That's the trouble. His batting aver
age has been better than 800 in the

The Giand Opera House gives three
changes a week, Mondays. Wednesdays
and Fridays, and a change of pictures
every night, and includes two vaude-
vile acts, two moving picture films
and an illustrated song. The films
are non-infiammable, and the subjects
are all Associate" pictures, being the
best and latest on the market and all
new here.
Since the opening of it's doors the
Grand Opera House has received the
patronage and support of the best peo-
pie of Richmond, the reason for this
being That Manager Baxter gives moth
ing but high-class. clean entertain
ments, no Objectionable features being
permitted under any circumstances,
hence it is an absolutely safe and
proper place for ladies and children to
attend, whether accompanied by es-
corts or guardians or not.
When it is taken into consideration
that the cost of these entertainments
is only ten cents, the success of the
undertaking is not to be wondered at
During the season many one night
attractions are given by some of the
leading companies on the road AS
these are booked through the National
Theatre Owners Association, of New
York City, the people of Richmond will
have an opportunity of seeing, during
the coming season, some of the leading
New York attractions.
In addition TO the management of
the opera house, w. p. Baxter is a
well known contracting painter and
paper hanger, and does all descriptions
of painting, paper hanging, decorating,
etc, and as he employs none but ex-
perienced workmen, he is in a position
to guarantee all work he undertakes.
His Office is at 100 East Main street,
phone 412.
