Game of Baseball at Forest Park Sat urday Afternoon to be Exciting
 Aifair-NO Admission.

The strong baseball team of the bankers will meet team picked from the cotton buyers of the city Satur- day afternoon at 3:30 o'clock at For est Park. The bankers defeated the bunch picked from the wholesale gro- cery men last Saturday and now they expect to punish the Cotton Buyers in the same way. The opposition to the bankers will be very strong in this game, for in most instances q good cotton buyer is found to be an expert with the sphere and stick, and there are many good cotton buy CTS in the city. A fine game is an ticinated for this date and no doubt t will draw large crowd to the lark It has been arranged with the street car company to run the cars to the park on this occasio ninstead of within two blocks, as run on or dinary occasions. No admission will be charged, and everybody is invited to come out and enjoy ,e real fast, stirring, exciting game of baseball. Hubert Strange will again have charge of the bankers

| 10 ELIMINATE l ITS INSURANCE
 Rights of Pythias Grand
 F'avors Divorcement l of Insurance Department. HOT DEBATE RESULTS Els Supreme Lodge Adopts Recommen- datiOn of Arkansas Lodge it Will Protect Contracts.
HOT DEBATE RESULTS

The Knights of Pythias grand lodge lyesterday went on record as favor divorcement upon honorable l terms of the insurance department from the order. The reason given is that strictly fraterna1 organization should not indulge in pure commer- cialism. The proposition resulted in a stubborn fight on the grand lodge floor in which some of the most pro- minent members of the order in this State took part. After two hours of debate the question was settled, but not until an amendment was added to the resolution modifying it's in effect.
 The original report favoring the civorcement, was made by the com mittee on state of the order, of which
 Jack Bernfardt, of Dumas, chairman and J. w. lDollison, past grand chan cellor, of Rector, and State Senator R. L. Montgomery, of Lewisville, are members. The resolution was oppos- ed by President J. N. Tillman, of the State University; J. J. Doyne, presi- dent of the State Normal School, and Charles James, of Eureka Springs. The two former favored a more len lent measure and argued for two hours with others presenting their conten- tions. Chairman Bernhardt and Mr. Dollison defended the report. At the suggestion of MT. Boyce a substitute resolution was agreed upon, which has the effect of favoring the divorcement of the insurance feature from the main body, upon honorable terms, when the Supreme Lodge adopts a suitable resolution with that end in view. If the Supreme Lodge passes the legislation, as recommended by the Arkansas grand lodge, it will re- suit in the complete elimination of the Insurance department from the Knights of Pythias order. It is un- derstood that the Supreme Lodge, should it do away with it's insurance department, will provide means to care for it's present contracts with It's members. sa
 The ritualistic work of Lawrence McCarty, of Arizona, who is at present working in this state, was approved with some exceptions. He was call ed to explain some of his innovations

Seven prominent Little Rockians attending the Knights of Pythi4 grand lodge sessions here were yeS- terday victims of practical joke, which came very near proving ser ious to two of them and fearing that the joke might end disastrously City Attorney w.

They protested, offered bribes and any ether inducements but the officers stood firm. One large man in the crowd pleaded to be permitted to make bond but this was refused him The others talked excitedly without effect. Tn the lobby Mr. Sorrells ap- peared and offered to 'stand for" the gentlemen. but Chief Stanley insist cd ttrt the men accompany him to Headquarters. w. N. Trulock, the manager of the hotel, was appealed to- but his cash forfeits were turned down. It began to look serious for the Little Rockians and one of them troke down and cried. The others pleaded with the officers earnestly, while several Brother Knights also tried to get the Chief to be lenient The firmness of Chief Stanley fright ened the unfortunate prisoners and when two of them tainted and the others gave evidences of being over- come, MT. Sorrells called the joke eff. The joke developed into one Of the most amusing comedies seen here in months and was witnessed by nearly hundred visiting Knights who stationed themselves behind doors and stairways to watch the perfol nance. The wives of several of the players were "1et in on the joke and witnessed the scene from the parlor on the second floor. The big fat man in the game was forced to take his bed. Two others in the party were unable to attend the "Dok- ey' banquet last night.

ALOR|CH SEEMS
DUE FOR BLOCK
Indications Are That D. P. w. Super
intendent's Head Will Fall Before
Mayor Quits Office.

The discharge OF William Dilger,
overseer of Belle Isle. from the park
department, with Mayor Breitmeyer's
consent, has caused revival OF the
story that Frank Aldrich. superinten-
dent I'm the department of public
works, will not outlast the mayors
administration.
AlNich like Dilger, is a hold-over
from a previous administration, and,
like Dilger. has been suspected OF be-
ing in opposition TO the mayors inter
ests at certain times. Dilger started
petition among the Germans to
have himself appointed park commits
sioner instead of M. =. Hurlbut, and
put the mayor in disagreeable
dilemma. He is also credited with
some of the mayors loss of votes In
the German wards. Aldrich once had
designs on the Office of commissioner
of public works, and his ward went
heavily for Owens In the primaries.
Aldrich was a member OF the
regime of Commissioner Moreland,
and was reappointed under Mayor
George p. Codd. AT various times
there have been rumors that he would
be removed, but he has always surviv-
ed the storms.
That there is something doing this
time is certain. The mayor says
there are to be several removals in
the interest of the service before he
leaves office.
To the mere suggestion that there
would be shakeup In the ID. p. W.,
Supt. Aldrich said:
They say Dilger was discharged
for opposing Breitmeyer. | don't
think he opposed Breitmeyer. They
accuse me of opposing the mayor at
the primaries. I'm not to blame for
what my neighbors did. don't think

including several ward foremen, who

good of the public service" said
