ON SPECIAL TRAIN.

The San Carlo Grand Opera Company
which has been visiting only the princi-
pal cities, arrived in town this morning
by special train The two performances
to be given at the Colonial Theatre today
by this notable organization will go far
to place Bryan on the operate map.
1t was some eight years ago that the
San Carlo stars first visited the United
States. In those days such artists as
Nordica. Campanari and others of equal
reputation were members OF the casts.
and, while those named have since for
saken the operate stage for the concert
field their places are now occupied by
singers OF equal ability. who have won
high distinction In the great musical cap
itals of Europe and South America.
The San Carlo Opera Company EN-
braces a membership of upwards of sew
enty-five singers and players. comprising
some twenty distinguished vocal stars,
a complete grand opera orchestra of
twenty selected musicians and a highly
trained chorus. whose members were
carefully chosen through their ability to
sing, as well as for their other natural
attributes. Scenery. costuming and prop
erty effects sufficient for the complete
production of some fifteen master-wo
are carried by tn organization which
travels in a special train.
With the. three operas that are given

Willie Ritchie-Ad WoIgast Fight Real
Championship Affair.

accepting the impending WolSaSC-
Richie battle as champion affair,
and promoters of the mill are receiv-
ing applications for tickets from ring
bugs east and west.
The only way Wolgast can win the
championship back, of course, is to
knock Richie cold. A decision would
not give him a clear claim. But it
would entitle him to a return bout
over the derby distance on the, coast,
and that is what Ad is working for.
Some disagreement has occurred
about the referee, but not of seri-
Gus enough nature to disrupt the ar
rangements Harry Stout, Milwau-
kee man, who has acted as the third
man in the ring in the majority of
the recent big fights in the Cream
City, is the choice of the commission
to direct matters.
Richie, while not questioning
Stout's ability or fairness, believes
that it would be better to have ref
cree with a national reputation. Indi- |
cations are that the matter will be |
smoothed out.

Sox Licked, But Show Promise
Tourists in New York.

Oakland yesterday, there were, new
ertheless, some promising indications
in the performances of the White Sox
players. They hit the offerings of two
Coast League pitchers who have been
steaming up for few weeks, and Big
Bill Lathrop, the Notre Dame star,
showed that he had curve or two
worthy of consideration.
This Lathrop person is being
counted to develop into a pitcher of
regular proportions, able to take his
stand alongside the dandy receivers
that Comiskey seems to pick up with
uncanny luck. ..,
Like most youngsters, Lathrop is
affected by wild streak. Notice that
he passed five gents and soaked an
other in the ribs in five innings yes
terday, and no further argument is
necessary. With that record land yes
terday's performance is no unusual
occurrence, he must be pretty good
mechanically to get any considera-
ton at all from such particular gents
as Kid Gleason and Billy Sullivan.
Lathrop is one of GIeason's hopes.
1t will be remembered that last spring
the Kid strung along with Reb Russell
and backed the Texan when Gala
han favored letting him go. Reb's
subsequent record indicates that the
former Oriole is a pretty good Judge
of pitching flesh.
He is touting Lathrop highly, and it
is not the usual spring training camp
complimentary stuff. The Kid is not
built that way. Lathrop was with the
Sox during part of last season, but
was given no chance to- prove his
worth. He was too erratic.
In the exhibition gamesjhe will be
given all the work he can stand, and
before long is liable to be shunted
back to the second team, not because

cry question has been pretty well dis
cussed thru the columns Of your pa

than good thing it is more Of { good

one of great interest among the farm
ers of Phillips county for the past six
months and when it is considered to be
second in value Of crops produced on
the farm. the farmer might well look
to his own interests, and they must look
to quality in cream and must co oper-
ate to sell to their best advantage. To
procure the best possible price, co-ops
ration is the only remedy. Why Is it
necessary to have cream stations in

cents per pound more than the present
price.
