LISTEN! FERULlA'S
PLAYING RAGTIME

'Ragtime! Who said ragtime? That
isn't ragtime. If you want to hear the
real thing you want to hear Ferullos
band play it tonight at the Watch Tow
err And this foremost musical critic
Of our fair city knew whereof he spoke.
Ragtime sounds good even on a CALI
ope. but when Ferullo and his squad
of wind-blOwing Italians get on the
job the rest OF the performers fade into
the far away.
So much for Wednesday night.
Thursday night will be conspicuous by
reason Of its contrast with Wednesday
night for a complete program of grand
opera selections has been arranged.
Ferullo believes that variety is the
spice of life and he is trying to wake
up the three cities with a vengeance.
Friday night, Wagner takes the front
seat at the Watch Tower.

CREEK DEMON is
COAST CHAMPION
Word Comes From George
Nicholson, Telling of Vic
tory Over Hall.
MAKES BIG MONEY IN GO
Has $500 Week Offer From Los An
geies Theatre Management to
Meet All Corners.

Word has come from George Nichol-
son, the Greek demon wrestler of
these parts, that he defeated Young
Hall at San Diego the afternoon of
July 4 before an audience Of more than
1000 people. The wrestlers, weighing
in at 145 pounds for the weller weight
championship of the Pacific coast. help
by HOll till the fourth, battled for
nearly four hours before the local lad
proved his supremacy. He won the
first fall in 80 minutes. using the toe
hold, and the second fall in three hours
and four minutes, using a body and
half nelson on his opponent Through
his victory, Nicholson made a nice lit
tie sum of money and gained great fav-
or with the fans on the coast.
Nicholson has gone TO Los Angeles
10 confer with the Olympic theatre
management there in regard to a per
manent engagement. He has been of
fered $500 a week, and is to meet all
corners Weighing between 40 and $50
pounds and to forfeit to them 500 if
they stay more than 90 minutes. He
says he intends TO take a chance on
the offer.
PICKIN'S GOOD.
George says that the pickin's are so
good on the coast that he will probably
stay there a portion of the winter and
possibly a little longer.

TRYING To RAISE
$4,000 INDUBUQUE
Editorial Comment in Tele-
graph Herald Shows Hus-
tiers Up Against 1t.
WANT NEW ORGANIZATION
Say That City Never Did Support
Team by Attendance at Games
Rowland Boosted.

That Clarence Rowland wasn't
slipping the Islanders a pipe dream in
regard TO his desire TO get out OF Du-
buque IL shown by an editorial com
ment Cleaned from the columns Of the
Dubuque TelegraphHerald. Dubuque
is making a strenuous effort 10 get to-
gether $4,000 which will insure the
keeping Of the team in that city for the
remainder OF the season. Possibly that
much money will not be required If
present conditions in the league are a
criterion of its life
WHAT THEY SAY.
But be that as # may, here is what
the Dubuque paper says.
Poor attendance at the ball games
has produced a deficit In the treasury
OF the local club management that
leaves Owners Rowland and Plass no
alternative but 10 transfer the fran
Chise elsewhere unless the city comes
forward with financial support. TWEEN
ty-iye hundred dollars is needed 10
tide the team 90 the end of the sea
son, and this Will give neither owner
a dollar for his own services. il will
simply care for the players salaries
Baseball in any city Of this size is
always a losing venture for the men
behind II. No club in Dubuque ever
has made a dollar at the gate and
Bowland's team is no exception 10 the
rule, notwithstanding he has Jared
better than others because he has
consistently assembled a representa-
tive team. In point Of managerial
ability no other 'magnate' in the cir.
cult is his peer and Dubuque is for
tunate in having him.
CITY WANTS GAME.
THE call for help raised by the ball
club always has been needed hereto
fore. This occasion will prove no ex.
ception. Dubuque wants baseball. TO
watch when the mood is on It. and to
use in the advertising OF the city.
There doubtless will be response to
the appeal and the proper committee
Of the Industrial corporation should ap-
preciate the need Of saving the sit.
uatiou."
