an actor since he was four wears old.

about TO appear in one of the most diff

ing role in this English play Tor the bcne-
&c performance to be given on Thursday
afternoon. February 49, for the -. Mary s

boy was to interpret an old man OF
eighty-three did not seem 10 impress

thing out of the ordinary. During a STAGE

Grumpy consented TO be interviewed.

Wichita, July 22.-Wichita defeated
the Topeka club il the opening game
Of the series here Tuesday. The nnal
score was Is to 7. The game was one
OF the most undressing contests
ever staged here. The Wichita CLUB
travelled from Sioux City and the To-
peka club travelled from Omaha, and
the players of botE teams were tireo
and displayed no ginger. They piayeo

Baker, pitching for the Wichita
club, was in good form ind held the
Topeka club to five hits al one run.

fusal to go to Nashville almost caused
q strike Of major league ball players.
left Newark last night to join the New
ark team in Providence and will in all
probability be in the game today. The
strike was avoided yesterday when
Charles H. Ebbetts Of the Broolklyns
paid the Nashville club $4,000 Tor its
claim to Kraft.
81 am glad the case has been set
tied" Kraft said, land I will try to
show the fraternity members that I
appreciate what has been done for me
and also Mr.. Ebbetts for his part in
settling the affair."
Kraft has been in Newark for about
two months. He was sent over by
Charles H. Ebbetts to bolster up first
base, for the Indians. He played the
position well and was improving in his
work when he was ordered out. In
fact, in his last game which was
against Baltimore he won the contest
by a home run with the bases full.

FOR BOOSTER DAY
Want 1000 Fans to Attend
Game Saturday.
Cooley After More New Players
Funds Are Short.

Dick Cooley. manager OF the Topeka
baseball team. IL trying to improve the
playing ability OF the club and the
members Of the Booster and CONNER
cial clubs are trying to improve the
financial conditions OF the organization.
Cooley IL after players to strengthen
the club enough to enable 1T to get out
or the last position in the standing and
the Boosters will attempt to sell enough
tickets to guarantee the expenses for
the remainder Of the season.
Manager Cooley stopped OF here Tues
day while the club went to Wichita to
play the final series before returning
nome. Cooley held a session with the
Officers of the baseball association and
asked Tor money to Luy three PLAYERS
on which he has secured options. The
excheQuer OF the association Is In mis-
ere BILE condition and it is doubtful II the
money can be raised to pay the cost OF
these players. Cooley feels assured
that with the acquisition Of these men
that he could force his club far up in
the second division and cause the first
division clubs to worry.
The board Of directors Of the stock
company would be willing to advance
the money on these players If it were
possible but they have not enough on
nand and the respect for getting 1t
Is poor. They expect to raise consid-
cradle money through the sale Of tick
cts which is being conducted by the
Booster and Commercial club members
out 1t will be necessary to use this in
paying salaries which are overdue.
The members Of the Booster and Com
mercial clubs made q big Splash to-
day and visited the various business
houses and offered tickets for sale for
the remainder of the saeson. In addi-
ton to that, they expect 1000 people to
witness the opening game of the series
Saturday. which will be observed as the
Cooley Booster day. Manager Cooley
realizes that the fans Of the city expect
MIN to get better results out of the
teams play but he says the club is
weak and cannot be expected to win
many games unless additional strength
Is added to the infield and in the pitch
ing staff. He is doing everything posi-
bic to secure better players but is
handicapped by the need Of money.
Additional money will be obtained
from the receipts Of the concert by
Creatores band Thursday night but. all
OF this will be needed to make up the
payroll for the month Of July.
