However, in the sixth Bessemer tied up affairs on Ramages four sack drive With Cochran on base. Then Gadsden rallied and made two more. It looked as II Gaos- den could not be downed, but Ramage hit another home run in the eighth and Bes- semer made three tallies, cinching the game.
 The contest started off well for Besse- mer In the first inning after Bumgardner and Walker had been walked by Chaput, "Jawn" Cochran hit line drive over center field fence and all three counted. However, Gadsden made the same nunper in the second by three singles and two bagger by Morton.
 Andy Ramage drove his first home run Nover the fence in the sixth with Coch- ran on base and tied up affairs. A pe- euiar fact is that every man who Chaput walked scored. Another fact IS that every Bessemer player who walked scored on a home run. Chaput's gifts were costly.
 The Game Is Won
 The game was won in the eighth inning. Andy Ramage swatted another bender over center field fence for a circuit tour and Chaput was yanked from the mound with the score tied. Priest then offered his benders to the Pipemakers. Morgan hit one too hot for Bowden to handle. Pierre attempted to sacrifice him, but Bowden recovered his bunt and threw badly to catch Morgan and he scored, while Pierre took second. Benedict sac- rif.ced him to third, while Hickman's in field out sent Pierre home.
 Gadsden scored no more, for Hickman struck out every batter up in the last session. One of the prettiest catches ever made on Underwood Field was secured by Bumgardner. In the eighth inning, with seigle on base. Wells hit Texas leaguer over second .base.@ Bumgardner ran back and dived into the air and pulled it down. He seemed to be about three feet off the ground.

PHOENIX MUST VOTE
AGAIN ON CHARTER

Phoenix, Ariz, Dec SO.-GOvernor
George Hunt has finally and irrevoe-
ably refused to approve the proposed

His main reason IS that it gives the
city commissioners the right to lease
public utilities In several particu-
lars, notably that Of the recall. it con-
flicts with the state constitution
Governor Hunt sometime ago re-
turned the charter as adopted by the
citizens, saying he could not cOnscien-

were then drawn I'D to dispose of the
governors objections, but the COVER

given.
Now Phoenix viii have to spend

manly thing for the husband to do is

1t is a relief to turn from the gloomy
perspective of liquor dealers and liquor
drinking provided by THE Question" to
the laughter and lyrics of Peg O. My
Heart" which has also made its initial
bow to New Workers.
Peg o. Ny Heart is a comedy of
youth, in three acts, with the action
taking place in the living room of
house in Scarboro, England. in early
summer. Peg goes to England from
New York to be reared by unknown
relatives of the prudish order. Enter
ing the room Unnoticed, she sees
married man kissing her proud cousin
who orders her to wait in the servants
quarters. Pegs presence is explained
by the reading Of viii stating that a
large sum has been left for her bring
The aunt haughtiIy takes the re-
spOnsibility and the fun begins. Peg

that the play will continue at the Cort

-'Racketty- Packetty House." a play
for children, taken from Mrs. Frances
Hodgson Burnett's story of that name,
had its premiere at the Children's the

was hailed by children and critics as
would have been a long lost friend
In fact, after the children had set
their approval on both the theater and
the play, there was little for the crit
les to do but to follow suit. for after
all, "Racketty-Pack House" was
not meant for groWnups at all.
There were various scenes. and they
showed the nursery of the naughty
cynthia, then the interior of Racketty.
Packetty House and then the trim halls
and rooms of Tidyshire castle-aIl
greatly to the amusement and applause
of the children present.
There was only one feature that
proved unpleasant and that was the
length Of the play. This matter, how
ever, can easily be remedied by the
producers and should add attractiveness
to the piece.

One of Them Is an Attractive
Child's Play; Two
Love Stories.
CBy Emory 3. Calvert.)

=
New York, n. Y, Dec 30.-As a
Christmas week production. New York
ers were offered Miss Princess a mu-
steal comedy, stage managed by John
COrt and produced at the Park theater.
The comedy was written by Frank
Mandel and the score by Alexander
tombstone, TO whom whatever vim and
Vigor Miss Princess" displayed be-
longs by large margin.
The story Of the play is one well
known to patrons Of the comic opera.
1t centers about a continental princess,
engaged TO marry a continental prince
for political reasons, but inclined to
bestOW her affections upon common
er through love
In order to bring home a touch OF
human interest or rather self interest,
the cOmmOner in this case is nothing
less engaging and romantic than an
American soldier. Two acts are re-
quired by Frank Eandel to tell his tale
one is laid in Washington and the
other in a western army post, where the
lOVelOrn officer, who has sworn not
to stand in the way Of the Princess's
marriage, has hied himself It is need
less to say that Miss Princess becomes
Mrs. Officer in the end.
To leaven this moss grown plot. Al
eXander tombstone has worked man
fully and with some success. though
his harmonies at times recall older and
perhaps better music. The lyrics by
VIII 3. tombstone, also add their moietv
toward what pleasure is engendered by
