Coach Alker and his baseballian pro-

are fully confident today that they will
bring the Princeton trophy to the Orange
and Blue school this year. The turning
point OF the Interscholastic League race
In favor OF the speedboys occurred when
Captain Roat and mis- national pastimers
routed Central High Schools nine after
a stir tilt. breaking the Crimson and
Gold Winning streak.
The defeat OF Doctor O'Brlen's team,
winners OF the championship last year,
practically put the Broad and Green
streets diamond representative out OF the
race. on the other hand, the result Of
the match virtually clinched the laurels
for the boys across the schuylkill.
Five games still remain on the league
schedules of the West Philly and Central
High, while the same number and
postponed game with Southern High are
to be played by Northeast High School.
The Orange and Blue Is playing the best
article OF ball, compared with the other
asnirants for the championship. The
team probably will win at least three OF
It's remaining games.
In this event Northeasts only hope OF
annexing the trophy is TO win all Of its
games. The best Central High can do
is to tie the circuits leader by returning
a victor In its remaining matches.
Central High School will gain the per-
manent possession OF the big trophy Of

SElls-FLOTO CIRCUS
PLEASED THE PEOPLE
From Tuesdays Daily.

One OF the best circuses as eve
pitched its tents in the city was the
Sells -F1oto and Buffalo Bill ~organiza-
ton, which gave performances in this
city yesterday afternoon and evening,
The shows we're well attended and
many pleased remarks were heard
commenting on the excellence of the
acts. Considerable. amusement was
created during the wait while the
main tent was filling by the show folks
dressed up in ordinary and extremely
homely makeups, who would meet
couples at the door of the tent, and
insist on walking to the seats with
them. One Of the big features was
Fora. the animal trainer, who ap-
peared in a cage with a number OF tig-
ers and a lion. and caused them to
perform many thrilling feats. The
same woman appeared in the CEN
trail ring with a drove of trained ele-
plants. and the control Over the an
imals. and the amazing acts which
they performed seemed almost i'm
possible for these gigantic creatures.
Many acts Of daring were done by
Fora. who rode of in triumph. held
by the king elephant upon his ivory
tusks. Similar acts were presented in
each of the three rings, and the
trainers and animals were worthy OF
especial note in each case.
During the grand entrance of the
company and their parade around the
arena. the Stars and Stripes were
much i'm evidence. and called forth
much applause. In the tableau acts,
where milk white horses and white
robed riders assumed different pos
lures. n very pretty pose vas given
as the finale. to represent Columbia,
with the winged steed Pegasus, send
ing the white doves of peace abroad
over the earth. as the message TO
other countries from America. The
black curtains arose from the revolv-
ing platforms In each ring revealing
a beautiful spectacle. On each plat
form the white horse stood statue
like. white wings curving from its
shoulders and on each wing a white
dove perChed. while in a pretty pose
Of triumphant peace the young lady
stood at its side, CARRIED i'm n pretty
costume of stars and stripes to repre-
sent Columbia. while white doves of
peace fluttered from her fingers and
above and around the tableau. The
act was enthusiastically a%pplauded.
Other interesting features completed
a very good circus. Rosa Rosalind. |
a winning little rider. turned somer-
from the back of a %galloping
steed. Mr.. Frazier hung by his heels
from a trapcze at the top of the tent.
the Delanos gave exhibition of their
acts on the aerial bars and
Fleuer ave a thrilling back

dogs, ponies. and horsese added to
he general interest, and the high

the air of western life to the circus.
and Buffalo Bill himself appeared in
he saddle. and made a short speech
TO the audience. who received him
with appreciative applause.

going on. Trouble is likely to break
out at any moment here OF there. Yet
yesterday only two special officers
were employed. and one of these was
forced to remain at the police station
in the capacity of desk sergeant. be-
cause Officer II. C.. Fricke, the regu-
lar desk sergeant, was i'll and could
not be on duty. People are entitled
TO protection. That Is what the
circus license money Is paid into the
city treasury for, and there is no
in the city management work

Kenneth Gibson remarked today
that such cutting ARRAYS were MOI
lnfrequent i'm circus life. While this
circus was at Kansas City. he says. a
man was slashed in a fight and died.

The significance of this investigation
in the United States is increased by
the fact that II vas carried on in a
district where the average yield per
acre is seventeen tons as compared
with an average of the entire country
of only 10.17. II losses of such size can
be found in a region where beet cul-
ture is obviously more advanced than
I'm most other regions. the total loss
throughout the entire United States
must be enormous. This total is to q

been shown. II is due less to natural
conditions than to defects I'm cultural
methods.

Afford DaIiberg Victim Of An Assault
While Seated In Mayo Park
at Rochester.
From Tuesdays Daily.

From Tuesdays Daily
Afford Dallberg was the victim of a
peculiar shooting affair while seated
in Mayo park at Rochester about sew
en- o'clock Sunday evening, and II is
not yet decided whether the wound
was accidently inflicted, or whether
the act was committed by an enemy.
Dallberg was seated with a party of
friends and suddenly felt something
singing and sharp strike him I'm the
back just beneath the left shoulder.
He pitched forward to the ground. but
did not known what had happened to
him. His friends examined his back
and found that a twenty-five calibre
rifle bullet had penetrated his clothes,
struck the flesh and then lost its
force. II is though. the bullet may
have been a spent ball fired by boys
in the neighborhood. who we're shoot
ing there contrary to law.
The police department will start at
once to make arrests Of all those
found shooting firearms inside the
city limits, to prevent IL possible a
similar accident. II is thought that
Ii will be very hard to discover the
person who shot Dallberg.

Fairmont and jackson Were Visited
BY Bunch OF Undesirable
Citizens of Late.
From TUESDAYS Daily.

From TUESDAYS Daily.
Fairmont, Jackson and other towns
in that vicinity appear to have been
visited by a band Of thieves last
week. and II Is thought that the same
crooks were responsible for all the
robberies. Sometime between las,
Saturday night and Sunday noon the
Peerless laundry at Fairmont was en-
tered but the thieves obtained moth
ing. II is thought that they had been
watching Chris Olson. who drove the
laundry wagon and made the monthly
collections that day, amounting to
nearly eighty dollars, most of which
was I'm checks. Mr.. Hawkins had
taken all the money home with him,
however. AS the banks were closed
when he came in the thieves no doubt
thought he had put the money in the
safe.
An attempt a made to enter the
garage of Victor st. John shortly
after midnight last Saturday, but he
vas asleep in the garage and was
awakened by the crash as the man
broke the glass I'm the transom. On
hearing meo within the man fed.
Mr.. st. John notified the police and
Officer Wehrenberg responded. Sher-
if Carver, who was doing some de-
tective work. had arrested one sus-
pect, who tells n poor story, and
whose shoes fit I'm the tracks made
by the thief. Another suspect was
also arrested. but the men are at
large i'm Fairmont until a case can be
nroyen against them. The Omaha de-
pot was also burglarized last Sunday
night, but only about forty cents Sc
cured.
