WANT TO DROP IT
City Commissioners Steer Clear
of Sunday Theaters.
Ask That Matter Be Dropped
From Program.
MILLER MAKES REPLY
Commissioner Tells Where He
Stands on Situation.

ness" He EXclaims.
MILLER MAKES REPLY

With the declaration that the news
papers have started and agitated the
Sunday theater question and that the
city board of commissioners has never
taken any real part in the controversy,
H. P. Miller, city commissioner, gives
a statement to the State Journal today
that will probably put damper on
the question for the time being.
Mr.. Miller deploreS the fact that this
matter should ever have been suggest
ed with the city commission when
they have SO much real business on
hand, and he also asks that he be
quoted correctly Unsteady of ''garbly'
as seems to have been the custom, ac-
eording to Mr.. Miller's version of the
matter.
Mayor Billiard also takes exception
to the trouble at this time. II don't
know anything more about this theater
matter said the mayor. THE news
papers seem to know more about it than
/ do. I haven't seen the petition and I
don't know who is circulating it. In
fact the commissioners have been so
busy with other matters of business
that the Sunday theater agitation has
not disturbed them in the least

EDDY LOSES HIS JOB.
Famous Organist Dismissed From
Brooklyn Church.

Chicago, April 16.-Clarence Eddy,
one of the best known organists in
the country and a former Chicagoan,
has been dismissed as organist and
choirmaster of the Tompkins Avenue
Congregational church of Brooklyn as
the result of a dispute over salary.
The notice that his services were to
be dispensed with came to Mr.. Eddy
without a word of warning in a curt
letter sent him by H. w. Vaughan,
chairman of the church's music COM
mittee. on the day following an even
ing which he had spent at the COM
mittee chairman'S home.
Mrs. Eddy, who long has been first
contralto of the church, is to leave
with Mr.. Eddy.
The affair, according to statements
made by membe of the church yes
terday, is likely to cause the music
committee some trouble. The excuse
that Mr. Vaughan gives for dismissing
Mr.. Eddy is that he had heard Mr..
Eddy was looking around for another
church.
Mr.. Eddy says that he understood
that his contract as choirmaster was to
be renewed and that the only question
er or not his salary was to be in
creased He denounced his dismissal
as "a despicab1e piece of business"
Mr.. Eddy'S successor IS to be Alfred
G. Robyn of st. Louis, who reached
fame through a composition called
ANSWER" He also is a composer of
light opera and is said to be under
contract now to write opera scores for
a New York theatrical manager.

This comet, which appears
every "seventy-f1ve years or So" ar
rives back in our vicinity from that
most distant point known as Aphelion,
writes Frederick Campbell, president
of the department of astronomy,
Brooklyn Institute of Arts and Sci
ences.
That is S,25o.OoO, 900 miles from the
sun and 5OO,0O0,0O0 beyond the orbit
of Neptune. The plane of the comets
orbit being inclined Is degrees to the
general plane of the earth and other
planets it is when it crosses Neptune's
path, 100000 miles deep in space,
but when it reaches the earth'S path
it lops over and under it. Only Mer-
cury's path escapes, being so near the
sun that it does not even show in the
chart.
Were the comet simply dropped
from its most distant point it would
fall straight into the bosom of the sun
and go out in a puff of gas. But it yet
retains a bit of that original momen-
tum which was given it when the
world We're created. This, combined
with the suns attraction, keeps it
working the treadmin of an ellipse.
The sun is at one focus of this
ellipse. for there are two, the opposite
focus being unoccupied. 1t Is six bill
lion and a half miles around it. If
YOU could ride the heavens astride the

suns light would reach you in full five

missioners be allowed to attend the
their active business and the business
that is of vital interest to the city, fol-
lows:
Since I have been quoted and mis-
quoted on the Sunday theater question,
1 desire to issue this my first and last
statement on this to some people all
important matter.
"Reporters have called me out of
bed at night, bombarding me with a
lot of questions in order to drag me
into the fight which seems to be of
more importance to some down and
out political muck-rakers than the
business interests of the city.

my mind on the business of the depart
ments in my charge, that the people
elected me to look after their depart
ments and I had no time to bother
with things that are out of place at
this time.
1.-THE only statement made to re-
porter when asked about my senti-
ments was in the following words:
THAT I believed that every man
should have the right to worship God
according to the dictation of his con-
science and that all people should have
the right to spend Sunday as they saw
fit, as long as they did not violate any
law or interfere with any one else.
Il am surprised to see Mr.. Katterfeld
turning himself loose and would advise
him or any one who desires to go for
me on this question to see me personal
ly before breaking into print.
THE city commissioners at present
are busy with more important affairs
and for one would say, Give us a rest
There has not been one word uttered
between me and Mr. Billiard on the
Sunday question. I have been too busy
with other affairs. This is also official

of the city is too important to be side
tracked for an agitation that is out Of
place at this time.

NOTES AND GOSSIP Rk5a7sH VI I1a A5Ga eiRo TIE

Umpire Byron gave some pecu-
liar decisions at Baltimore yesterday
when he called Walsh out on
strikes. when the batter was stand
ing on the plate and later called
a strike on Slagle while he was rub
bling his hands in the dirt. This last
decision aroused Manager Dun and
he refused TO play the game. FORGETTING
to Rochester by a 90 score The Hust-
lers would probably have won the game
any how. as the score was IA In favor
of the Champs. Even the Rochester
players had to laugh. The forfeiture
will probably make a blood between
the two teams. n the Orioles may
wake up and trim the Champs in q
couple of the remaining games.

1mauled our star southpaw, Wyatt Lee,
for thirteen hits, and right when we
didn't want 1t to happen. When a team
makes an even bakers dozen of healthy
clouts off a pitcher, even though he Is
the leagues best, said team generally
makes a few runs. Such was the case
yesterday when the Bisons made a
quintet of run on their thirteen wal
Tops, while home runs by Lee n
sLouden accounted for the only two
markers hung up by the Tigers. The
score at the conclusion Of the after
noon's entertainment read 5 runs to 2.
It drizzled all afternoon and the game
was rather dull and ~listless. Lee was
off color, and though he had five strike
outs, he was not right otherwise, and
was unable to puzzle his opponents in
his usual brilliant fashion. The Bisons
started the scoring in the very first
round. After Henline had famed Pat

with a double down the left field line.

Both cams then worried along until
the sixth, when the Bisons and the
Bengais zach tailed once.
Pattee led off with a single, was
sacrificed to second and when Lee UNI
corked a wild pitch he tailed. New
ark's run was q homer by Lee. which
sailed over the right field fence as
clean as q whistle. After Browne and
Jimmy had gone out, Louden walked
and Kelly singled to right. but Bill was
nipped trying to make third on the hit.
In the seventh Smith started off by
tanning, Sabrie was hit by a pitched
ball and Williams banged to left. Kelly
got the ball and tossed to Louden, who
reiayed to Zimmerman, and Sabre, who
tried to take too much liberty, was
caught. Lee was not to escape without
a score, for williams took second while
Sabre WAS being retired. and when
Merritt singled to right he crossed the
pan.
The last Bison run came In the ninth
on q double and two sacrifice hits.

we're the cleanest clouts seen here in a
long time. AS 1t happened, no one was
on bases when they were made. Lee
drove the ball over the right field fence
and Louden slammed a terrific whack
to deep centre which bounded into the
bleachers.
Alvah Williams hit the ball hard yes

able man for the Red Sox. He Is built
on big lines and has wonderful strength.

a double steal was attempted and he

easy out.
George Mcconnell has been knocked
out In the last two games in which he
has worked. Hope he continues in that
form until the coming Tiger series is
over.
Chubby Manser did the hurting for
the Skeeters and pitched well enough
to win any ordinary game.
After tomorrow's game there will be

Sunday, when the Bengals and the

the Orioles from Toronto. Both teams

day, too.
