GIANTS CALLED GOATS"
Brush Attacks Johnson's Methods in
Attempting to Divulge Ticket
Scalping.

New York, Dec. 14.-The baseball
war which exists on paper between
the American and National leagues
went merrily on yesterday, but indi-
cations were plentiful that it was to
be q war OF words only.
Officially, the National league at
tended severely to it's own affairs,
rejecting President Thomas j..
Lynch and ignoring the resolution
adopted the previous day by the
Americans. Unofficially, both major
leagues laughed at the prospect OF a
real encounter between the millions
of dollars invested in each.
The worlds series ticket scandal
continued to hold the spotlight. Pres
ident Brush of the New York Giants,
who made public yesterday his re-
port TO the national commission on
the scandal, addressed a letter to
Johnson asking him 10 explain few
things alleged to have happened to
the pasteboards in Philadelphia.
"Why pick the Giants for the
goat?" Mr.. Brush asks, among other
things. while dilating upon the
outrage perpetrated upon the New
York public through misdirection
and collision with ticket spectators
why do you not explain how in Phil
adelphia ten persons absorbed over
5000 tickets, an average of 500 each
and SO others absorbed 5000 tickets,
an average OF so each?"
BRUSH SEEKS IMPORTATION.
incidentally Mr.. Brush's letter
says that there were no street ticket
spectators in New York during the
worlds series-''it being unlawful. "
In part Il reads:

the New York club with handing out

Manager Klinck has arranged for
two high class band concerts at the
Illinois next Monday, when Signor
Francesca CreatoIe and his famous
Banda Verdi will appear here. For
nearly year past Sig. Creatore, and
his band have been appearing con-
tinuously in Milwaukee, by many
months the longest engagement ever
played in that city by any band or
ganization. Creatore has started on
a transcontinental tour with what he
considers the best band ever under his
direction. In speaking of one of CTea-
torres numerous concerts in New York,
the New York Telegram finds occasion
to remark: 1T aroused the audience
to a pitch of enthusiasm seldom If
ever seen in New York theatre, and
recalled in some measure the scenes
enacted in the great music centers of
the world where the entire popuia-
ton are lovers of music and are wont
1t is peculiar fact that this band pos
sessing to a remarkable degree an
assertive quality that places it at one
zen rapport with its audience and as
the program proceeds the applause in
creases in volume until a climax is
reached that becomes an ovation and
that was the case last night Every
number on the program was encored
and doubly encored, and the audience
was enraptured. This band is beyond
any question one of the best and fore
most musical organizations of the
time. A factor in musical education
and a model for all others"

her so well as that of Gilda, but the
audience applauded her enthusiastic

1.-THE Illinois next Saturday, matinee
and night:
George d. Sweet supported by re-
markable strong company presented
that splendid melodrama, "a Messen-
ger Boy" at the opera house last
night. The plot of the play is real
istic presentation Of life from the out
side world, that appeals SO forcibls
to our natures. The kidnapping of two
children, with their final rescue, with
that had its origin in the outcast life
of the street waits at Pier 46 in the
great city, with the manly honor and
final reward of the kidnapped boot
black who possesses noble traits of
honor and integrity. make a drama
that fascinates while it pleases. The
scene at the great Brooklyn bridge,
with night on the East river with it's
lights and piers is worth the price of
admission alone. Col. Worry, the
egotistical irrascible but warm-hearted
OLD man who never forgets his war
record, is a whole circus with the
clowns thrown in. The cunning vii
lain and his female accomplish make
you shudder at the realistic presenta-
ton of all that is vilainous and mean.
To enumerate the good features would
be to give the entire cast, for there is
not weak place in either the plot or
the players, while the parting of Grit
and Roxy, and the finding of sisters
