Something of an idea of the
rapldity of shifts in the big leagues
may be gained from the statement
that of all the players in the
American in 1901, there remain
but three. These three are Papol-
con Lajoie of Cleveland, Eddie
Plank of the Athletics and Billy

has been a star and each ought to

that those who bought last year

think the commissioners should be
asked to answer a few questions and
probably will be before they get
through:
1st-How many feet of track are
there now in what is known as the
union yard, which is sopen to the
equal use of all railroads that now en-
ter keokuk, and any others that may
enter?
2nd-How much of this union track
will remain if the terms of the ordi-
nance are complied with? (The an
swer to this is not foot.)
What tracks, if any, will be
put on any or all of the ground now
occupied? And who will own them?
If any one should desire to go into
this little further they might also
ask this question:
How many feet of track owned indi

many feet of track owned absolutely

MISS Nobody FROM starIand.

Melodious in score, bright in color,
rich in fabric and graceful in move
ment, Miss Nobody from Starland,
with clever Olive Vail and a large
company of we'll known principals,
backed by a vigorous chorus of pretty
girls, will be the big Mort Fl. Singer
offering at the Grand on Friday even
ing. Adams, Hough and Mitchell
divide the honors of book and lyrics,
and Joseph E. Howard furnished the
many jingly musical hits with which
/ the famous musical comedy abounds.
i"NIiss Nobody from Starland" inocu-
| lates with the germ of laughter
| throughout its four spectacular scenes
The story centers around a fascinating
chorus girl, who is aided in her diam
ond smuggling enterprise by host OF
suitors on board the liner Lusitania.
Novelty is the keynote of the story
from the first to the last, and one OF
the earlier surprises is the disembark-
alton of the passengers at the finale
of the opening scene--the entire COM
pany is precipitated upon the aud
fence by means of a gangplank lead
ing from the deck of the liner to the
center aisle. Another innovation is
the great dress rehearsal scene, which
gives the audience glimpse behind
the scenes and shows a musical pro-
duction in the process Of preparation.
/ This is one of the most interesting, as
/ we'll as laughable, scenes ever shown
upon a stage. Among the many song
! hits are "Ah, Mari, Mari. Tarantelle,
I'D Rather Love What Cannot Have
Than Have What Cannot Love, IN

mended that the matter of rebuilding

thereby doing away with the appoint
