1.-THE BRASS ROTTLE."

"The Brass Bottle" the quaint
Arabian Nights fantasy which
Charles Frohman produced last
week, is unique in that nearly two
thirds of the company never appear
on the scene at all. Fffty-eight of
the ninety persons in 1t are used
only for manipulating the various
bits of mechanism that sustain the
remarkable illusions in the piece.
Substantial English lodging houses
are changed into Oriental palaces, in
the twinkling of. an eye, men are
transformed into mules. and a full
grown man passes through the neck
of a bottle.

MISS JAMES IN NEW YORK.

The principal eason for her COM
ing to America to take a prominent
part in "Our Miss Gibbs" says Julia
James, was that various ether Gaiety
theatre girls on getting back to Lon
don from New York, told her that
people never rest in America, and
that the cafes are open all night.
But when Miss James was told that
as a. matter of fact the New York
cafes close at 1890, she Immediate
ly asked whether it was because the
Gaiety theatre girls had been here.

"JEFFRIES IN A WALK"
Wolgast Predicts Boilermaker Will
Win in Ten Rounds.

DETROIT, April 25.-In letter to a
friend In this city AID Wolgast expresses
the following opinion on the outcome of
the Jeffries-J johnson fight. The light
weight champion says:
Jim Jeffries in walk. I've been
there myself, and ] know a man feels
mighty queer when he realizes that he
is up against a champion and fellow
with a reputation as d maneater The
first time / fought Nelson | was scared
for the first five rounds and hardly Knew
what | was doing. Amy moment | ex-
pected to have the Dane cut loose and
knock me from the ring. 1t will be the
same way with Johnson.
When he gets a look at that big, hairy
bear, Jeffries, he will wonder just how
far the boilermaker will knock him when
he let's go that awful left. And / be-
lieve that before the black mans con-
tidence returns the battle will be over.
About ten rounds is what | figure ana
the big fellow may end it before that If
he really makes UP his mind to do So >

CONNIE MACK SANGU|NE
CLAIMS THAT ATHLETICS WILL
WIN FLAG THIS YEAR.
Says Battle for Pennant Is Going to
Be Fierce, But Thinks His 1nf1eld
and Pitchers Will Stand Up.

BOSTON. Mass, April 25.-'Jf we don't
win the pennant with this team, we never
will"
That's from Connie Mack, he of the
wisdom teeth. the managerial proposition
whose oracular efforts are always worth
while
eff we don't win that pennant we never
WILL" was the Introductory. ITO my
mind we have the best chance. For no
thing on the Athletics. That infield Is
perfect. Those boys pulled stuff down in
Washington that 1 haven't seen before
and stuff that counts. It is the finest in
field in the country today, to my mind
Everybody is playing ball-and the
pennant in a large measure is up to the
pitchers They are all right, but If they
cannot pitch in front OF that team they
never can pitch for anybody.
Don't do too much doping on finishing
in October according to the old figures
This Is going to be a fight. It's no cinch
for us, it's no cinch for Detroit. It's no
cinch for anybody. 1 tell you IT'S fight
with every club having an even chance
but 1 figure that we're going to win be-
cause we've got the strength where we
need it.
Il have bail team and the pennant is
up to US. Keep the pitchers right and our
chance Is great. But we've got to fight
every minute, for the American League is
strong association this year and no.
body can make runaway in the battle"

COBB TO BE REAL GOOD.
Detroit Star Will Not Get Into
Wrangles With Umpires.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
ST. LOUIS, April 2J.-Tyrus Cobb pro-
poses to be on his very best behavior
this year. The American Leagues star
batsman made the assertion this morning
that no matter what happens he will
stay on the job.
They can call him out or they can call
him safe; they can step on his feet or
offer undertone advice; they can do ev-
erythins that all umpire can do to d
player. but Tyrus will positively not say
a word He will just go ahead and play
ball like deaf mute. In fact, Cobb
will be the ideal player if present plans
do not miscary.
Tyrus is positive that he can do
all he says that he has offered to wager
Manager Jennings SO that he will not
miss game this year a result of
run-in with an umpire. Jennings will
not accept the bet, for Cobb played in
nearly all games last year. there being
only two men who played in more, ana
Bush was one of them.

LACK OF CONFIDENCE Is

MeAleer Intends to Use Encouraging

age big man who pitches base ball.
Walker is fast on his feet In fact. he is
splendid athlete. and is therefore capa-
BILE of moving about and helping his
pitching with some fast fielding. There
are pitchers who have nothing to recon-
mend them but a good arm. but Walker
is not one of these.
For the first time since Connie Mack has
been identified with base ball he has
made the prediction that his team would
win the pennant Heretofore there has
not been more conservative man in the
game than Cornelius, but his team has
shown him so much class this spring that
he actually feels confident that he will
be in front of the other seven teams
when taps is sounded on the race Of
1910
Mack's confidence does not seem to be
misplaced, either He undoubtedly has
the best team he has ever commanded.
OF the few teams that have appeared
here the Athletics stand out in class
by themselves, and it is strange that it
is the only team from which the Nation
ais have won q series.
There are ball players whose real abil-
ity is not recognized because they go
through their work without any ostenta-
ton effort. For instance, to the
average observer Harry Lord of Boston
is the pilot OF that crew. and yet ball
players who are in better position to
observe insist that Bill Carr1gan is the
brains of the team. True, Carrigan is
considered a good catcher. but it has
never dawned on any one that he was
more than that Players on opposing
teams who have reason to watch every
move made by team assert that Carri-
gan is the most valuable member of the
Speed Boys and it is limited that
should Patsy Donovan fail to- come up
to John I. Taylor's requirements Carri-
gan will be his successor.
Washington is to have one of the most
modern base ball plants in the American
League. President Tom Noyes of the Ma
tionals returned yesterday from a trip to
Cleveland, where he went to attend the
opening Of the new ball park. and he also
slipped over to Toledo to inspect the new
stands there
He was much impressed with both
structures, but before anything definite
is decided as to the contemplated new
local plant other cities where modern
plants have been erected will be visited.
LAS yet said President Noyes, I'VE
are in the dark as to just what we will
do. All the new ball parks have seen
have much to recommend them, but L
believe that by studying each one closely
we will get the benefit of the expert
ence of others, SO that when we formu-
late our plans it will be along the most
modern lines. We are not vet ready to
make move, but we can report prog
reSS."
