Since moving pictures issued their magnetic call to the anus men, loy- ing popuace Ot the country, society has formed one of the chief factors in moving picture that have gene to the four quarters of the world for ocie,y. you know. is something to be rech- oned The good and the bad have not escaped, and if the bad has been ac- ceutuated it was but to point a lesson to bigger and better things.
 Manager Blaschke has booked for tAe Royal today a feature tha will be certain 10 attract attention. first be- cause it is in three big reels, and. sec ondly. because it is built around an incident in high life that will pIon- ably be recalled with interest d. the details unfold themselves t0 you The title Of this production is The siren of Corsica. and it is reflex of a gaming establishment where hsh stakes are played.

The AL. G. Field Mlnstrels.

Al G. Field, the dean of minstre'e}, is the one minstrel manager who dares invite the public 10 accept the past as a criterion of the present. and hence the slogan of the Al G Fled AIinstrels this season is "TWenty- ninth Successful Yea." Likewise the annual guarantee is given Every thing Now for This Year.
 In every aspect Manager Field has made his production this season one that outdoes each of the 2S with which he has preceded it.
 During the opening number, en- titled The Birth of Minstrelsy,' is reproduced in miniature the first American minstrel show and then follows the changes since Dan Elm melt introduced this form Of enter taiument 10 America. This develops into a colonial spectacle which pie lures the old south and the new south by presentations of house party in the time of the Huguenots, and present day southern scenes and impersouatious Costumes and cet- tings are on a scale of elegance that makes it all the acme of modern min stre. splcudor Interspersed are the finest contributions of minstrelsy to- day tuneml music, sprightly capti' yatng dances, ballads and songs gen de.ed by 20 talented yocalists and choruses, and other harmonious fea' lures.

Emma Bunting in Help Wanted"
 Tonight.

Tonight,
 From it's historic triumps in Chi cago and New York, Jack Laits great play, Help Wanted" comes to the Auditorium tonight with the tried and tested assurance that it is the most human, the most Imaginable, the most genuine and the most intimately truthful play of modern American life that the state of this country has known in years. These are the quail ties which have made Jack I.ait's now famous play the financial as well as the artistic success of 1914. Pro daced under the personal direction of the playwright the production is more than living mp 10 the high standard set for it during Its great runs in New York and Chicago, The story fasci. hating. clean and viyidlv y.ri.c. is vel richly humorous and irrcsiatibly cap- tiyating by reason of the iucompar. able wit of its dialogue No man who has had occasion to employ stenog- rapher, no girl who has thought of working in an office, no woman who aas ever wondered whether the 'business woman can eyade the re- spous.bi'ity or the danger of sex in- fluence in the world of business can fail to grasp and relish the beautitm realism the genuine pathos and the wise philosophy of Help Wanted

FoIloWIng several SHIFTS IN Ine TWO
White SoX teams, Russell Blackburne

infielder and stick until the start Of
the season, at least. Manager Row
land, after watching the work of his
charges in several games against va
rious teams of the Pacific Coast
league, is dissatified with the per
fOrmances.
Baker, a regular third baseman,
filling in for Weaver at short, has
failed miserably. Eddie Collins is
much too fast for him and this has
tended to throw out of gear the eff
forts of the crack keystoner. Over
at third base BrOmwich has not lived
up to his minor league press notices,
He has committed a bone play or two
that are not to be tolerated in the big
show.
ChappeII, gardening in left, is still
overweight, and this affects his work.
Russell is another fellow who is too
beefy for his own good or that Of the
team Consequently Reb, Chappel

BAsEBALL-sPoRTs OF ALL SORTS BOXING

Next to the abolition of free
lunch" the most unpopular principle
we can imagine is popular" deci-
sions in ten-rOund prize fights. They
serve no purpose but to stir up ILL
feeling, and seldom settle the ques-
ton of superiority.
Willie Ritchie won popular" de-
cisiOn over Lightweight Champion
Freddie Welsh in ten rounds at New
York last night. He clearly whipped
the Briton, yet is not entitled to the
championship because Of an unwrit-
ten rule that titles cannot change
hands in ten-rOund affairs.
That is nnanifestIy unfair. Ritchie
lost his title on points in twenty
rounds in London, and it seems only
reasonable that he should be allowed
to take it back on points, even
though the go was only for ten
rounds. To all intents and purposes
Richie is the best man this morn1nS,
yet he must remain merely chal-
lenger, while Welsh, the defeated
man, retains the title.
Welsh makes a significant post-bat-
tie statement. ct seems to be habit
to give popular decisions against
Welsh he says, 'but you notice
who goes right along fighting all
corners and meeting more than all
the title claimants put together"
There stands Welsh. Ten-roUnd
decisions make no difference to him.
He keeps his title and can realize on
it at the box Office.
Neither man was marked through
the ten rounds. Richie staggered
the champion once, but the effect
came more from the fact that
Welsh was backing away than from
the blow alone. 1t was fast fight,

A TRADE CENTER
ESkridge RebuildS After Fire
Two Years Ago.
Home Coming Week Brings -
900 Visitors to Town.

Eskridge, Kan, Aug. 1.-THE fifth
annual home coming week was held
here last week. Ball games, band con-
certS and a Japanese troop from Chi
cagO were the main features of the
amusements. The attendance at the
event was estimated at seven thou
sand.
A ball game Wednesday between
Harveyville and ESkridge resulted in
a score of to 1 in favor of Eskridge.
The game Thursday was between
Usage City and Alma. The game went
twelve innings and the final score was
to for Alma. The band which fur
nished the music was composed of
twenty-five pieces and was under the
direction of Frank Easter. Miss Ethel
Vance and the Toki Japs were on the
program. Many concessions had to be
turned down as there was not room for
them.
Eskridge is in a triangle formed by
Usage City, Topeka and Council
Grove, and is quite trade center. 1t
is live booster town and has q Com
mercial club of fifty members. Roy
Nudge is president of the club and
G.. G. Bunger is secretary.
A new park was plated here short
time ago which covers square block.
1t is the towns principal beauty spot
since it was originated. In addition
to this the town has bought and laid
out a new athletic field adjoining the
high school grounds
All the buildings which were de-
stroyed by fire two years ago have
been replaced slice then and the town
has become a trade center again.
There are now two banks, four general
stores, three hardware stores and eth
er business enterprises in Eskridge.
The town has population or about
one thousand and has prospects of a
substantial growth in the near future.

OTIS BENTON A HUSTLER.
Became Wealthy During Thirty-five
Years in Decatur County.

Oberlin. Kan, Aug. 17.-One of the
hustling business men of Oberlin is
Otis L. Benton. In his 35 years resi-
dence in Decatur county and Oberlin
he has been a rustler some times farm
ing and stock raising, then again
banking. Coming to the county poor,
he had the nerve to go to work. He
is now the head of several business
enterprises and is making money. Way
back ten years ago, when some of the
state papers were mentioning Ben
ton for governor, he said to the State
Journal representative that he neither
aspired for the honor, nor would he
accept it.
Some day my political ambition is
to represent the Sixth district in con-
gress," says Mr.. Benton. 'I am AZ
years old and can wait ten years long
er and be old enough to go to con-
greSS.
Mr. Benton is an active candidate
for congress in 1915. He has been
valuable acquisition to his town and
has been a generous donator to every
enterprise tending to build up the
town. He is at home in one of the
handsomest and palatial residences in
Oberlin, and is living on easy street.

Stories
Kansans

During the 1913 session of the legis-
lature, j. W. Orr of Atchison was floor
leader for the Democrats in the house.
1t was during the Hodges administra-
ton and political lines were rather
tightly drawn. Every few days there
was a division on strictly party lines
and the Democrats with their major
ity in both house and senate won with
much regularity.
The fight Tor the Republicans was
usually by S. NJ. Brewster, Robert
Stone and A. M. Keene- One day they
had carried more than the usual
amount of trouble to Orr. AS a re-
suit Orr was waxing sarcastic in his
closing remarks and he met the
thrusts of the Republican leaders with
a Kansas story.
