park will be leveied and the diamond
skinned off. a new double tennis court

The dance room In the club house will
also be redecorated and the rest rooms

One OF the hardest propositions which
the club had TO cope with last year. that
OF obtaining water TO supply the grounds
with during the dry season. has been
remedied by grant from the North
western TO run a pipe line TO the club
grounds from their East Omaha round
house. 1t will now be possible TO keep
the club house and bungalows supplied
with water and also 10 sprinkle the tennis
courts and the ball diamond.

applications for membership In the DietK
club with a privilege of joining the Boat
club iater on To accommodate the In

tee will confer with Il. ]. Cornish OF the

INTERSTATE BASKET BALL
TOURNEY IS CALLED OFF

Because the gymnasium will not be
completed by February Is the interstate
basket ball tournament which was to have
been held at the University Of Omaha this
week, has been called off. 1t was not
until last week that Il was known that
things could not be got in readiness for
the meet, but because Of a number OF
alterations which would have to be made
II is necessary TO give it up for this
year. Though games in the Tri-City
league are being played on tie floor the
big meet could not be held because Of
the lack Of dressing rooms, baths and
track and for seating the crowds, which
are not required for league games

With the initial contest to be played
about April IS the chances are strongly
In favor OF raw spring day with a tenn
Terature but a few points above the
freezing mark.
Under the circumstances IL IL not sur
prising that the players who have worked
out where the mercury hangs between 50
and % feel the chilly change and suffer
from lame arms and other ailments to
which the base ball player Is prone. How
much easier. say the reactionists, II the
men trained in the vicinity where they
are to play during the early days Of the
season.
The radicals. on the other hand, con-
tend that II is not possible TO secure the
results desired by training on home
grounds They claim that It requires a
change Of scene. warm. balmy atmosphere
and blistsring sun in order to set slug
gish blood circulating and fire the ambI-
ton Of the players Some state that there
is merit In the arguments which decry the
bringing north Of a player trained In an
S-degree Temperature to play In about 70.
They are willing, however. to let the
other clubs try the home training expert
ment.
AS result the southern trips grow more
ambitious. extended and expensive each
year. Permanent quarters with costly
equipment are growing In favor and
within the next few years IT is likely that
almost every big league club will give a
fixed training camp. where the squad
will break in stiff muscles. reduce weight
and return to a frigid north for the
beginning Of a league season due to open
about April l.

A THREE RING SHOW COMING
The Hagenbeck-Wallace Combined
Shows Will Be Exhibited in
This City Soon.

The representative of the Hagen
beck-Wallace Combined shows have
completed all arrangements for the
appearance of that world-famous en-
terprise in Denison on Saturday,
August 10th.
For more than a decade the Great
Wallace shows have maintained a
prominent place in the front ranks OF
American shows because OF its IN
usual characteristics as circus, its
essential quality of different from
other shows" its fine menagerie and
its great display of the finest horses
in the world. The Carl Hagenbeck
Trained Animal shows, which have a
worldwide reputation and which
we're enjoyed by many people OF this
country at two of the worlds FAIRS,
are conceded to be without an equal
in their special line. What then may
be expected when it is announced that
we are to be treated to such an eXhl-
bition as the combination OF these TWO
shows? Surely the patrons OF tented
amusements will be justified in eX-
pecting an unusually meritorious per-
formance, and they will see surprising
exhibitions of trained animals and
skilled performers such as they have
never before witnessed. The Hagen
beck-Wallace shows are cosmopolitan
in character, and if any show is capa-
BILE of pleasing all classes OF people
this one does.
The Observation-Disclosures shows will
positively exhibit in Denison on Sat
urday, August 10th, giving a grand
spectacular street parade in the morn
ing and performances in the afternoon
and evening.

Bicklebrown, pastor of the
Onward Presbyterian church
500. He said today that $50
apiece for souls was cheap.
Mr.. Bicklebrown receives
no salary for being the pas
tor of the small church. He
earns a living by selling life
insurance. The 500 was
paid out of his own pocket.
and he says he will do en-
tensive advertising in the fu-
ture. The lad" which won
the two souls was headed:
Goods Word" and contained
Paul's letter to the Thessa-

81 believe" said Mr..
Bicklebrown today, that the
churches will soon realize
that newspaper advertising
as supplementary to their
working program is indis-
pensable. 1t is economy.
