The Bapcos are seeking whom they may devour. They cannot find any body to feed upon in the I. L E. I League, so they have taken on the newly organized McNcil team for game this morning at 10 o'clock on the Polk street grounds. The Bar bers are composed of the Well-knoWn and popular young men who inhabit the offices of the paving company here, and though they have tried Justify they have had rotten luck in their games with other members of the league. There is nothing the matter with the Bapcos. They just cant win games it seems They come in for a great deal of jOshing in their league, so if they don't take in the McNeils for hong score their banning Wtn be positively unmerci- tul The Macks are unknown as to quantity and quality, so this cannot be a prediction of any great value But if they don't win some games soon, the manager threatens to hand around a flock of release slips and hire d bunch of low -browed profes- sionals to play LoW-browed pros are warned to watch the want ads.

The Coliseum.

Have you heard that musical act at the Coliseum this week. is a question that has probably been asked several hundred times since Bingham and Gable began to tOot their horns last Tuesday evening. It's fine goes on the conversation in the car or on the street. the writer has overheard these remarks about steen times herself. Ev- erybody hearing it, most of the. melo- dies are of the material variety and are as stimulating as two of the same" on a cold morning.

applause following this act last night was perfectly spontaneous and almost deafening.
 Hyde and Raymond have so many corking good things in their vaudeville mulligan, that one can do nothing but enumerate them. There is a drunk who is just funny; an imitation of the Scotch comedian Harry Lauder that is delightfully."- clever; a serpentine dance with cOlored lights and bright blos- soms, that is beautiful; a soprano and a base solo sung by Hyde the double voiced, gentleman soubrett that puts him right up in the limelight with Lily Russell and Billiken, His Best Pal.'

 Imagine if you can, the wonderful relief to such a host of people, who learned through the doctors generosity, that has Vegetable Compound does all he claims and he guarantees the result.
 Isn't it a fine thought that all the druggists agree with him and all you do, is to deposit the small price, 9 cents, and if you are not cured or sat isfied, you can get your p cents back, by merely asking for it.

as will curb any probable unsavory lobbying Another objection to the bill is that it legalizes what has always been regarded as a reprehensible busi= ness and puts it on the plane of d pro- fession. Another objection stated is that it would seem from the supposed constitutional mandate that the consti- tutional convention supposed that eV- cry legislature coming after would be dishonest and need some curbing re- striction.
 one of the chief reasons for a vote against the bill has been stated in the general practice that no constitutional body on earth has the right to make mandate to a legislature that a legis lature is bound to fulfill if in it's good judgment the need for it does not eX ist In spite of all this however there are many strong partisans for the measure in the senate and it may pass but if it does it goes to certain death in the house as members of that body have announced themselves as against
