The Frog That Would a-FIying Go.
Since flying figh and flying squirrels
exist, 1t is not SO surprising to be told
that there are also In the world flying
frogs. All these animals have In
stinctively made use of the fundamen-
tai principles Of the aeroplane, the per-
fecting of which is beginning to I'M
part the power of fight to man him

frog - Polypedates reinwarditii is
found. and Prof. Siedlecki OF the Uni
versity Of Cracow describes 1t as be-
ing Of a magnificent clear green color,
with white belly, while membranes be-
tween Its fingers. which enable 1t to
glide on the air, are Of yellow. But
1t changes color like the chameleon.
1t inhabits trees and bushes. and is
active only at night, living on insects.

Iowa and Missouri Returns Received

AWAIT ILLINOIS DOPE
Quincy Figures Received-Muscatine
Good Prospect for 1911
Galesburs Feels Very
Safe.

GALESBURG, H.. Dec. 2S.-Fig-
uFes from the 1910 census thus far
reported show that Galesburg is we'll
up in the standard of size for Cen
trail baseball association cities. In
fact, with three cities from Illinois to
report it is figured that Galesburg has
about the third or fourth highest pop
ulation figure in the league. Eliminat-
ing Quincy. who has sold her birth
right, the local figures place us in
about third place, with some of the
new Iowa towns to be heard from.
Thursdays Associated Press dis.
patches gave figures from a number of
the Iowa cities, and Missouri has al
ready been heard from. According to
the figures already compiled the var
ious cities stand as follows:
Burlington .................. 24,324
hannlDal ................... 1884
keokuk 14,0oS
Quincy turned in population fig
nre of some $4,000. and was much
disappointed, and Muscatine, which is
clamoring for admission, turns in a
figure of 16,17S. The Illinois cities
outside of Quincy have not been re-
ported, and include Galesburg, Mon
mouth and Kewanee.
The figures themselves as already
given furnish some sober thought for
Central Association magnates, and
show that the league is still long
way from the desired total of 100000
necessary to gain the class C CLASH
fcation. To obtain this an average
figure of $4,000 was required in each
city, eliminating the five-mile limit.
Quincy exceeded it and Burlington and
Ottumwa are close to the mark Han
nibal and Keokuk are somewhat below
the required number, and Monmouth
and kewanee will probably fight for
last position in the league with Ke-
vance having the advantage.
Galesburg's population in 1900 was
some $4,000, and the county has
grown but 1000 odd souls since that
census was taken Good guessers fig
ure that all the gain made in the
county during the ten year period has
been made in this city, and others
claim that the bare county figures will
show loss and the city a correspond
ing gain. Others claim that the
school census attempted five years
ago, and returning a figure a little in
excess of $4,000 is about correct. At
any rate Galesburg will probably
show about the same figures as those
turned in by Ottumwa and will land
close to the $4,000 average required in
each city.
A generous guess at Monmouth's
population would put it at 10000 and
good-hearted allowance for Kewanee
would make it return 1900. Taking
these figures as computing basis,
the entire league, figured with Quincy
in, would show a total of about 1872
coo. But Quincy is gone, and if Mus.
catine is figured in the total would
drop the difference between the
Quincy and Muscatine figures, which
is about $4,000 souls.

NO MANAGER YET
AT BURLINGTON
Local Association to Meet With Pros
pective Team Owners, and May
Decide Today.

BURLINGTON. Ia, Dec 2s.-The
members of the Burlington Base Ball
association met last evening with
some prospective owners of the 1911
team, and had a heart-to-heart talk
with them. Nothing definite was ac-
complished, and it was decided to hold
a meeting of the association this
afternoon when some kind of an
agreement will be reached. The prop
ositions made on both sides appear
good, but the Burlington proposition
to the prospective managers is ex-
ceptional, and is SO admitted 1t is
hardly probable that the local asso.
citation will recede from its position,
as it is very much desired that prac-
tical man take hold of the base ball
business in this city and relieve local
individuals of the bother of looking
after the financial end. A generous
bonus is offered with ground rent free
and other advantages, and there are
number of men willing to accept
the proposition. The only delay is
occasioned by desire to put the To-
cal affairs in the best possible hands.
That that will be done there is no
question 1t is possible that the mat
ter will be settled this afternoon.
Danny Mannix to Be Released.
Little Dannie Mannix, the cute Teller
who squirted around the pitchers box
for Burlington last season, will get
his release from the Burlington as
ISOLATION. Danny will be welcome to
1t and to the best wishes OF the
Burlington management. For Danny
has been persistent in his insinuations
that the Burlington people are a lot
of grafters and simples. who did not
know the laws of property rights in
players. He has been offered part pay
ment on his salary at the close of the
season when the local association was
in sad financial way. He and all
the other players accepted the first
installment with thanks. Then when
the second installment was sent by
check, little cute Danny returned his
with high-brow letter, alleging that
mot on muh life will accept any
thing but the full pay Well, Danny
was dropped out of the mind of the
local association until letter finally
came from him, saying he would
exchange what was coming to him for
his release. This proposition was ac-
cepted, and Danny will go his way a
loser in the deal by some sixty dol
lars because of his foolish young way
of looking at serious problems.

WALSH IS
: SUPERB IN HER
NEW PLAY
Famous Emotional Actress Dis
plays Great Talent to Much
Advantage in 1.-THE Other
Woman

Displaying her gift for emotional
acting to a splendid advantage, Miss
Blanche Walsh and supporting cast
last night presented, The Other
| Woman to a packed house at the
Elks' theater. Especially written for
her. the new play gives Miss Walsh
every opportunity to use her extra
ordinary ability. Throughout the play
the star as Eleanor Gates THE
Other Woman" was, of course, the
dominant factor.
..The Other Woman Is a story
which is not unique in the every day
existence of men and women Time
and again Miss Walsh struck home
with lines and sayings which found an
answering chord in the hearts OF the
women and of the men in the audit
ence.
Much different in general plot from
THE Test" presented in Albuquerque
by Miss Walsh last year, the play last
night afforded her even greater scope
for emotional acting. Miss Walsh
was in better voice than when here
last season and seemed to ave de-
veloped even greater strength 81 The
art of playing pom the hsart. strings
OF her hearers.
The cast in 1.-THE Other Woman" is
small, numbering altogether a half
dozen. Miss Anne Cleveland, as Mrs.
James Harrington. "the wife," al
though not as brilliant as the leading
lady. was splendid in her ~interpreta-
ton of the different role of the neg
lected wife. George w. Howard was
strong and masterful as James Har-
rington,' the husband"
Altogether, THE Other Woman
was n of the best of the seasons
offerings, a play that was intensely
interesting throughout. Miss Walsh
has many warm admirers in Albu-
querque and should this city be fortu-
enough to be included in her
itinerary next season, she will be as
sured of a crowded house
