Careful examination OF the police rec.
ords brings to light no complaint from
anybody that has been robbed Of base
ball tickets.
In this connection II Is recalled that
last year John Heydier. secretary to
the National Commission. had charge
OF the sale OF reserved seats. All the
regular patrons OF the Polo Grounds
who wanted such seats at advance sale
got them. And Mr.. IIeydier had some
1000 to place on sale TO the general
public.
This year there nre no seats for the
general public on sale at the ofnces OF
the New York Baseball Club. At II
o'clock thA morning nearly three hun
dred regular Polo Grounds patrons who
had sent checks with requests for seats
from three weeks to ten days ago were
clamorins FOR their money. They had
been unable to get seats. but they had
kilograms stating that their checks
would be returned to-day.
Secretary Foster had not arrived at
IL o'clock. No other Official with au-
thority to return checks or money was
on hand. The condition Of mind OF these
loyal patrons OF the game cannot be de.
scribcd In a family newspaper.
Men who make BUSINESS OF selling
theatrical tickets say they have been
approached by politicians who have
blocks and blocks of reserved seats for
which they are asking $3.50 a ticket for

those seats II not frorI friends OF the

ANOTHER PLAN FOR
ATHLETIC FIELD
Suggestion Made to Have the
Board of Education and City
Take Over Ball Park.
ANSWER TWO PURPOSES
Could Be Used for High sehecI Rec
reatlon Grounds and for
Public Park.

The agitation which has been
aroused throughout the city in favor
of retaining the baseball park for ath-
letic purposes is beginning to bear
fruit, from all indications. A plan
has been suggested 70 the board of
education to have the school district
and the city take over the proposition
with a view of making a joint athletic
field and recreation grounds.
THE PLAN.
1t is proposed to have the school
board take over the four and a half
acres now used for a ball park, as a
field for athletics for the high school
The school is without adequate
grounds at the present time and there
has long been a real necessity for the
same. 1t is suggested that the city
might take the remaining tract of sew
en- acres for. a public Fairgrounds and
park. This also is needed.
At the meeting of the board OF edu-
cation last evening, a communication
was read from the iY.,M. G. A, in which
It was urged that!the board cooperate
in some such way to preserve the ball
park. The association is interested in
the matter because it favors clean ath'
letics and is anxious that the ground
be used for this ipurpose rather thar
to be cut up and sold for building lots.
SHOULD BALL RETURNF
Should organized baseball be return
ed TO Rock Islands It would then be
easy; to secure the park for this pur
pose. q. Local fans deepsin their hearts
believe that this will still take place
and II 1t does there is a daisy home
waiting for the boys" There seems
to be a decided public sentiment il
favor OF retaining thet park for ath
letios and it is hoped that some definite
plan will be worked out soon with that
end in view.

ORCHESTRA Gives
A FINE PROGRAM
High School Musicians De.
lighted With Their Work
Last Evening.

The orchestra of the local high
school closed the work of the year
very successfully last evening with a
most entertaining concert. From the
first number to the final encore, the
students made a decided hit, each
number calling forth merited applause.
/ All of the solos received encores, and
/ the last number of the evening, 'The
Anvil Chorus" was rendered so beau
/ tifully that the audience demanded an
extra number on the program.
There was but a small crowd which
witnessed the affair, the inclement
weather probably being the cause
used by the orchestra in purchasing
new music and music racks. The Or
chestra has increased a great deal in
size lately, and the program which
was given last evening is the result
of q years work of the young must
clans. AT present there are "a in the
orchestra, all regular attendants at
the practices of the orchestra on each
Monday night for the last year.

sicians who assisted in rendering the

TICE ROADS Bill
GIVEN APPROVAL

Springfield, H., May 14-Unahi-
nous approval of Representative
Tees bill for good roads in Illinois
terday of the first annual meeting of
the Illinois Highway Improvement as
sociation.
A hundred farmers and delegates
from various commercial clubs and
automobile clubs agreed it was the
most practical legislation that could
be hoped for at this session.
recommendations as to the amount
of the appropriation under the bill
were postponed until the measure be-
comes q law.
The original bill Il to receive an i'm
portant amendment in the form of a
concession to the protest of the 1880
highway commissioners, who saw
their jobs going glimmering. 1t was
feared their protest would be felt to
such an extent that the whole reform
program would be lost Rather than
submit to delay the organizations urg-
ing it decided to do something toward
meeting the demand of the commits
| sioners,
If the plan Of William c. Edens,
president of the association, and other
| leaders carries, the local control of
road building will continue in large
measure. The number of commits
sioners may be cut down, but there is
wish to increase their salaries that
/ better men may be obtained.
The announcement of the compro-
mise brought together two factions.
| One, headed by Frank Funk of Bloom
ington, insisted the program was not
sufficiently definite and wanted speci-
| fications as to how much could be put
into highway construction next year.
! The other, headed by w. E. Hull of
| Peoria, said it was too definite as far
| as the highway commissioners are
concerned. He announced fatty he
/ would do his best to have Peoria coun-
/ ty go ahead with road construction
| without the aid of the commissioners.
| The factions finally agreed, however
] A message was sent to the highway
commissioners organization announc.
ing that II Of its members had been
granted honorary membership in the
| association.

and the following vice presidents were
