ADJUSTMENTS
The Gem Theatre

The new program at The Gem
Theatre opened yesterday afternoon
with an unusual act when Electrice
performed ten marvellous feats in
which she defied electricity. She
received 1900 volts of electricity
while strapped in the electric chair
which IS an exact reproduction of
the one used in Sing Sing prison
The act is refined, instructive and
daring. This is an educational act
that every man, woman and child
should see.
Ethel Edstrom, singing come
dienne, entertained the audience
with a number Of refined songs, for
which she was roundly applauded.
LaValle and Grant, gymnasts, in
an act of skill and beauty, close this
well balanced bill. This is one Of
the best acts of this kind seen at
The Gem for quite a while. They
offer hand balancing and posing and
new features in this line
With the motion pictures the
sixth 1eries of the "Perils of Pau
line" will be shown.

OWensboro at Cairo
Henderson at paducah

Shortstop Peters, lately Of the
Henderson club, assumed the role OF
philanthropst in yesterdays game

error which was partly responsible
for Cairo's victory, and enabling
Grogan, who pitched a sterling arti-
Gle of ball, to triumph over his an
cient enemy, Gossage, by the score
of TO / before one of the largest
and most enthusiastic crowds of the
season.
Both Gossaga and Grogan were in
superb form but Grogan was slight
ly the better with men on bases.
Owensbo"o had Grand chance to
tie the score in the ninth when they
had men on second and third with
but one cut Grogan tightened up
and retired the next two batters,
ending the game.
Each team made but one error,
but both of these were costly. An
error by Coy permitted Greensboro
10 score its only run, while Peters
error caused the loss of the game
for greensboro. as one man scored
on the break and another reached
third from where he scored a minute
later.
Cairo experienced considerable
difficulty in solving Gossaees deliv-
cry. Cairo made one hit in the
first inning, a double by kessling.
In the next five innings, Gossagc
retired Cairo in order. In the sew
enth pass, an error and hit
scored two runs, The third came
in the eighth on three singles.
Greensboro came within an inch
of scoring in the first inning. Smith
popped to Herbert, but Bradshaw
scratched a hit to Wise. Pickering
fouled 10 Mccain, Bradshaw going
to second. Kuhn singled to right

A combination of small fruits and

A one-piece frOck which serves for

il is Droper for a young man TO strike
another in the presence of a grip In
this case the young, man and girl were
untruthfully spoken about and the
young man spoken about to defend
both the girl and himself struck The
offender. Was the offended young man
justified? A
1t would have been far better for the
protector of a girls name and his own
to seek out the slanderer privately and
force an apology and retractiOn. 1t
puts a girl in a very bad position to be
the cause of a physical encounter be-
tween two men.
