company, was Juno in George Ade's s
"Forty-five Minutes from Broadway"

fame is as great as the mystery Whlcn
surrounds her, will appear In speclal
number. Just what she is going to DO
is being kept a secret, but that her act
will be a delightful surprise Is un-
questioned.
A black-face monologist, a pianist
of school age, famous contralto SOLO
ist. a one-lady rendition of Romeo and
Juliet and other equally unique num-
bers will complete the program.

CANTILLON IS BACK
In WESTERN
LEAGUE

Despite all reports to the con-
frary and the repeated denials of
Tip O'Neil, president of the West
ern League, it again leaks out that
Joe Cantillon is back in the organ
ization. In order to bring this
about Cantillon employed Pack

ager, as a tool. Isbell of the SoX
was in the mean trick. 1t seems
that Isbell wanted to have complete
control of the Wichita club, of
which he was part owner. Can
tillon authorized Holland to sell his
share to the ex-White Sox player.
Joe then entered into a proposition
with Holland, whereby the latter
was to purchase the st. Joe club
under his name and was to assume
the role of manager. A few days
afterwards papers had it that Hol-
land had purchased the st. Joe
team. This caused a little surprise,
but things quoted down until it
leaked out that Cantillon had brok-
en- into the secret society of the
Western League and was the real
owner. Holland was waiting for
this, but he wasn't waiting to hear
the news that Jimmy Williams was
to manage the ball team. Cantil-
Ion had slipped one over on the
former Wichita manager.

Michigan Wonder Favors
Johnson and Tells Why
Advises Friends Not to Bet
on Him After Few More
Fights.
BY STANLEY KETCHEL.

HNLGv " NnCIs
Just a suggestion to you who
think Jeffries will beat Johnson
hesitate. Go into ring history.
You'll find a mans color does not
denote the quality of his punch.
Sentiment won't prevent Johnson
entering the ring more highly pol
ished and finely trained than JEFF
fries.
An illustrations: In his prime
Jeffries succeeded, by what many
think fluke, in beating Corbett in
% rounds.
Johnson will enter the ring as
good as Corbett when he was de-
feated at Coney Island He will be
almost as fast, if not just as fast,
and will have better punch. You
who think Johnson's punch isn't
dangerous don't know. l do.
Johnson seldom uncovers his
punch, because he is so scientific
that he prefers to win easily, rather
than by smuggling.
1t is likely that Jeffries, after
years of easy living, will be the man
who met Corbett? 1t is all right to
jump about giving exhibitions. A
man mildly conditioned can do this
and the flaws will not be percepti-

LOCAL MAN ON FIRST BIG BASKETBALL TOUR in

"The most freakish basketball
team | ever saw, and at the same
time one of the best, was the IA
nous Silent Five of New York, a
team which l managed for several
seasons reminiscently murmured
Van Cook, famous basketball
coach and present athletic coacn

"On their first western tour they
Travelled over 5000 miles in 1t
days, playing IA games, winning IL
and losing three. 1t was wonder
full record and much more notice
able because it was the first tour
ever made by an eastern basketball
five.
II had a great opportunity to
witness some of the wonderful ball
played by these deaf mutes. Deaf
ness seemed no handicap to them,
rather an advantage, for nothing
could rattle them. Lightning fast,
marvels of physical development,
they were a wonderful team.
AT Chicago they defeated the
Champion West Side team, AZ TO
81, in a whirlwind game. The
Chicago center loomed feet 7
inches in the air but by keeping
the ball under him, the Solent Five
center played the beanpole off his
feet. On the same tour the famous
Company E team of Fond du Lac,
the champions of the middle west,
lost to the silent lads, "a to 20.
Plate glass was used instead of the
usual back board, which seemed to
counterfeit the 'english" on the ball

greeted by enormous crowds, the

their brilliant playing combined
with the fact that it was the first
long basketball tour ever made,
setting the highest mark for at

EXPANSION MOVEMENT
HALTED At S. A A. G.;

nominated director of the Spokane

expansion movement at the club at
the annual meeting last night, or
killed it for a time, at least, swing
ing practically every red-hot expan-
sionist with him after a few min
utes hard-pan talk.
Following the annual report of
President +. F. Emery, in which he
advised against haste in charging
the present club structure, casting
Il large burden upon the institution,
which is at present on easy
street." one of the members asked
for the opinion of other directors
in the matter. Then it was that
Schiller quoted the enlargement
talk, purchase of new site, ETC.,
with a few well-chosen words,
which showed that he had made a
more careful investigation of the
matter than any of the expansion
lists.
Schiller declared the building
mlscOncelved, In that the gymna-
SUM was placed where the front of
the structure should be. Declar-
ing that with the completion of the
Monroe street bridge, the erection
Of the Spokane club building and
the coming position of Monroe
street as the main artery of the
city, the club building must neces-
sarily face on Monroe street.
He then outlined the changes in
the building, the switching of the
gymnasium, an addition which will
bring the structure flush with Mon
roe street and several stories ron
top of the present building, but ad-
vised that nothing be done until at
least year, when the time would
be ripe for changes.
