Just a true American story is per-

be given 1.-The White SLAYER" which
come to the Elks theatre next Monday
night, being the opening bill of the
famous Keyes Sister Stock Company.
This play had seasons run at the
Liberty theatre, New York, and has

and the pulpit. It is perhaps but
fitting, that in a season remarkable
for attacks by religious and civic
organizations upon recent road pro-
auctions because of their alleged
questionable tendency, that 1.-THE
White SLAYER" should be adding to its
laurels as the cleanest and pref
test story ever seen on the stage, in
the past 20 years. There are no Nigh

CUP RACES.

New York, March. 2S-With dates
finally adopted by the Yacht Racing
Association of Long Island Sound, the
various clubs in the organization
have been turning their attention to
their individual racing schedules. The
cup races have upset the plans Of
more than one club, and while there
will be an unusually large number OF
races this summer, the year is decid-
eddy shorter than in former seasons,
and it is expected that there will be
fewer of the larger craft in commits
sion.
The Larchmont Yacht Club is the
tentative schedule. The club has been
successful in drawing the cup boats
for three regattas, the greatest mum

Yacht Club. The boats will race for
a. series prize offered by the flag Of
ficers. The first regetta will be sail
ed on June 6, the day the Larchmont
Yacht Club goes into commission for
the summer
The second race is scheduled for
Monday, June 80, and the third con-
test will be sailed on Saturday, July
4. The last race is the annual regat-
ia of the Parchment Yacht Club, and
it is the only race in which the three
new cup boats will be seen in an
open regatta under the auspices OF
the Larchmont Club.

AT THE BEST:

The management of the Best thea
ire has arranged real treat for
patrons of the popular moving picture
house by securing Lies Miserables, .
the greatest motion picture play
ever produced, according to the
owners of the filu. This will be
presented here Monday and Tuesday
March 80 and 81. The picture play
/ will ,be shown six times each day, at
1Osa: M, 1915 p. m, 2:9O p. M, 4:45
p. nj, Z p. m. and 9:15 p. m. There
will mot be an increase in prices of
admission, although many movie
houses in other cities have charged
so cents to see this picture play.
Acc4ding to the producers 100000
was expended in making the picture
of this literary masterpiece by Victor
Hugo, using French theatrical stars
and constructing the scenery in
duplicate of the places pictured by
the immortal French writer.
There are nine reels required tc

man, the eager self-sacrifice of the
school teacher when she realizes that
the minister's life may be imperilled
by her love and the finally happy end
ing of her story after the extreme
stress combine to make a play that
has brought teary laughter and sheer
joy to- thousands of delighted theatre
goers and will undoubtedly prove the
best attraction seen in this city for
many seasons. The scenery which
the Keyes Sisters Stock Company
carry cannot be duplicated by any
$3.50 attraction on the road. This is
rather a broad assertion but never
the less true, as each act of ever bill
has it's own special setting, viii e the
electrical equipments are unsurpassed
by any company on the road, and the
costumes of every member of the
company are correct in every detail.
Seats can be secured now at the
usual place.. Prices will be 10, 20 and
80 cents. Ladies admitted free on
opening night if accompanied by one
paid ticket. Matinees Wednesday and

SPORTS
** ! 49,

London, March 28.-Rumors are
rife that all is not W ell with Lord
Ashby st. Leger's organization of a
polo team which will make another
attempt to bring the international
cup back to England. It is said that
the noble patron of the turf game is
having trouble in getting men for his
team. II ~. il d Ha2
Captain Gerald Ritson, who led the
English team last year will be in
India with his regiment when the
match es take place at Meadowbrook
in June, and so will not be able to
participate.
It does not seem likely that Capt.
Leslie st. George Cheape, England's
greatest No. l, will play on Lord st.
Ledger's team; nor is Capt. Hardness
Lloyd likely to lead the challengers
in June. OF the Duke of West
minister's six challengers last year
Capt. Vivian Lockett is the only prob
able member of this years team, and
he is not certain. None of Capt.
Lloyd's splendid 1911 quartet will re-
turn on this years team, which ap-
sparently is to be built around his two
substitutes, Capt. BATTLES" Borrett
and Capt. E. w. tPalmes, who was. a
lieutenant then. 81.
1t seems to be a case of many are
called. but few get up" Several fine
players have been invited to join this
years polo expedition but somehow
it hangs fire at present.
Another incident which has created
quite bit Of discussion relates to the
engagement of E. G. B. Fitzhamon,
the expert polo writer from Cali
lorna to report the games for the
Field, as he did last year. His re-
engagement is made with the proviso
"if the expedition comes off"
In the meantime several English
poloists are now in Madrid, where
King Alfonso has donated the use of
his private park for the purposes of
practice. There is some feeling
against the Englishmens training in
Spain and practicing with Spanish
and French horsemen.- Such course,
it is said, gives the contest too much
of a flavor of Europe against America
rather than England against America.

TRAP SMOOTHING

New York, March 28.-While ar.
rangements for the national amateur
trap shooting championship have not
yet been definitely made, it has been
decided that the big event will be
held at a later date than usual. The
shoot will once more go to the New
York Athletic Clubs traps at Travers
Island. The matter of fixing the dates
rests with the Trap Shooting Com
mite of the club, and present indi-
cations point to the choice of either
Wednesday and Thursday, April 20
and 80 or dates a week later, May 6
and Z.
The club committee will have full
charge of all arrangements, as there
is no real national amateur trap
shooting association. A movement is
on foot for the organization of such
a body, with the leading clubs of this
city, Philadelphia and Boston as
charter members. 1t is proposed to
organize an association which will
cater primarily to the "simon pure"
and take in as an affiliated member
the intercollegiate Trap Shooting
League, composed of Yale, Harvard,
Princeton and Dartmouth.
There is national body at present
the Interstate Trap Shooting AS
sociation-but it is a dead letter in
this vicinity, and is absolutely ignor-
ed. Its mandates ar y not recognized
and it is not called upon to sanction
tournaments in this section.
1t is a pretty strong association
in the South and West, but it is re-
garded as too closely affiliated with
the powder and cartridge manufacture
ing companies to suit gunners in the
cities which are at the head of the
new movement.

REASON FOR Jump,

Philadelphia, March 2S.-The re-
lease of Danny Murphy to Baltimore
which caused his leap from organized
baseball to the Feds, is said to have
been due to a quarrel which arose
in the second game of the last worlds
series. 1t will be remembered that in
the ninth inning, with man on third
base, Mack refused to put in pinch
hitters for either Lapp or Plank.
No run was scored and the game
fell to the Giants in the next inning
Danny Murphy begged for a chance
to bat in the. crisis, but Mack refused
to heed the pleadings of mis- lieuten-
ant After the game Murphy is said
to have criticised the manager with {
great deal of frankness.
The dispute is believed to have
ended the friendly feeling which once
existed between the two men.

TROPY PRESENTED

London, March 28,-The solid silver
Viking challenge trophy presented to
the yachting department of the New
York Athletic Club by Sir Thomas j.
Upton, to encourage the development
of the Viking class of cruising motor
boats has been completed and it is
soon to be sent to New York.
The trophy is in the form of an
ancient Viking ship, the details Of
which are taken from one discovered
at Christiania Norway. A finely
modelled sea horse supports the ship,
and along her sides are circular
shields upon which will be engraved
the winners names. The ebony ped
