So far no announcement has been
made Of the sale OF Vic Miller, the
most promising of the Waco twirlers.
1t is felt certain, however, that IL man
ager Hardy has not secretly disposed
of him, it is because a satisfactory
price has not been agreed upon. Sew

Houston has drawn s415 worth of

Ayers q New Wonder.
Ayers. a pitcher from the Southwest
ern university of Georgetown, recent
" secured by Austin, is proving the
nine days wonder of the league just
now. Due to a streak OF luck and
wonderful ability, he has had a great
string of victories. It has been due to
his efforts largely, that Austin is con-
tending so hard with Houston He is
a young man and ii looks as if he

Moves On Sick List.
Moves, rated by some to be the best
catcher in the Texas league. has not
been performing for Oklahoma City for
many days. He has been i'll and un-
able to play ball. Davy White, an
other one Of the Indian stars, is also
on the hospital list. This has a great
deal to do with the recent poor show
ing of the Oklahoma City team.

Dean invented the scheme of re-

AT THE THEATERS.

The best of all American plays
dealing with graft-financial, political
and social, THE Lion and the Mouse,
Is coming to the Lyceum> Saturday
and Sunday with matinees both days.
Since the remarkable work of
Charles Klein was first seen here
many things have occurred which
make the return of the drama a
matter of psychological interest, in
view of the numerous cases against
the trusts and captains of industry
which are now before the courts.
Five years ago 1.-The Lion and the
Mouse" would have been a failure for
the simple reason that the public
did not ask, where did he get it,"
but rather How much is he worth ?"
When the play was first produced
the insurance scandals were just
reaching the public nostrils. Then
came the actions against the trusts
and the railroads by which the public
at large discovered that the so-called
leaders in high finance were a little
short of pirates.

Mouse is concisely this; John Burkett

GOVERNMENT CLERKS
DUE FOR 4 SHEAR|NG

WASHINGTON. D. c., Jan. 49,
The Gillett bin for government clerks,
measure that compels contribu-
tons to the pension fund from the
clerks themselves, has aroused out
spoken denunciation OF the plan from
the alleged beneficiaries. =,
without concealing their names, a
thing unheard of among Wash
ington government employees, the
clerks have rushed into print and ap.
servedly condemn the Gillett bill as
a thing designed by their department,
heads to saddle the entire burden OF
pensions upon the least paid and the
hardest worked.
'"They tell u.s." says Miss Ethel
Smith, a clerk in the bureau of fish
cries. Ito urge the Gillett bill lest
congress give US nothing. That ar
gument misses the point. Perhaps
we would rather have nothing than
a thing as bad as this. Why should
we want law SO utterly ruthless to
our private and personal needs SO
humiliating to our self-respect and
independence? This bill is the work
Of minds that had no need to con-
slider its application to themselves:
its whole object is to solve a pro-
blem for the government without ex-
pense to the government.
Michael r. O'Donoghue, president
Of the U. S. Service Retirement as
sociation, a clerks organization,
makes the following scathing critic
ism of the Gillett bill:
tory plan virtually contemplates con-
fiscatory methods Of extorting large
portions from the low salaries of the
employees, an injustice so brazen in
conception that q private corporation
would be liable to criminal prosecu-
ton should it even attempt such
high handed financing.
."It has been ably pointed out that
an employe can use the same money
the government would extort under
the Gillett bill and invest it In n,1mer-
GUS more profitable ways to protect
himself and family, and that an in
surance policy would afford protec-
ton to the family at death, whereas
the contributory plan would afford
only the money paid into the fund.
Efficiency in the, service would be
promoted to the highest standard If
an employe were assured that after
he had given his whole working life
to the government he would be pro-
tected. Thousands Of employees would
not resign every year. as is the case
now"
The Gillett bill has the backing of
the Taft machine and would have
gone through smoothly, as pro-
grammed, If it were not for the pres
ent uproar Of dissent And even
now. II the clerks protests .subside,
the measure will become law.

COPPER MARKET
LOOKING BETTER

There appears to be more genuine
optimism over the copper situation now
than at any previous time for six moths,
and opinions have been freely expressed
by the leading copper interests that the
low price has been reached.
Brass interests of Connecticut are ex-
pressing disappointment over business
as reflected in the fact that the brass
millsare running but five DAYS week, but
this temporary loss i'll copper consump-
ton is more than made up by the gen
orally improved business from the wire
mills.
The Amalgamated interests are still
holding their copper at l2a cents, and
one of the Aulalgamated interests state
that they turned down orders for 80, 900, =
600 pounds at l2s cents, aud they could
have sold over 100, 600, 900 pounds at
l2t cents, and feel confident that they
will be able to sell all the copper they
want to at l. cents.
