Garry Claims to Have Dope
 Against Feds.

Garry Herman is quoted as hav- ing said: "When the Baltimore Feds $500, ,OOO damage suit comes to trial we intend to make one vital point clear. We can prove that the Baltimore Feds, at the time we were arranging peace with the Federal League last winter, made a formal request for a franchise in the National League. They wanted to take the place of the St. Louis Car dinals in our circuit.
 Tn other words. they were eager to become members of the so-called baseball trust, which they now are trying to dissolve by litigation. We have evidence to prove this and c"T attorneys believe that these facts will defeat the Feds legal pro- ceedings. Sinclair, Weeghman and Gilmore will be among our star wit nesses." The attorneys for organ ized baseball are George Wharton Pepper and John G. Johnson, both of Philadelphia.

Good Bill at Coliseum.

For those who like dancing. and practically everyone does, the reel with the celebrated Castles at the Coliseum is the real molasses tofy, If Billy Woodland. the pianist, would play the selections that would % with each dance the reel would take better, but &s it is it goes wei! and he does his best. Another thing about the reel is that the dances are not cut but they so the full meas ure. There is the Castle Walk. Hes itation Waltz. One Step, Maxixe Bresiliene and the Tango Argentine. The weekly is also good. and "Oai- cer 6sS" is req! classy, last up tc-date comedy. This was a scream on the speaking stoge and it is sood on the screen but there are so many laughs brought out by speaking thal many ludicrous situations are passed up on the screen. The production is a George Kliene affair and speed is written all over it. This bill is to run for the balance of the week ard Sunday also.

 ITO attempt by legislation to bar players in the tennis goods business from participation in tournaments because in that business also they benefit from their reputation would be discriminatory and tantamount to interfering with a players right to choose his vocation in life"

 The photoplay catches with unerr- ing. fidelity the spirit of the great author, transferring to the screen the indefnable wealth of rich hu- nor which has made the story e household treasure. beloved by every one to whom it. is familiar.
 Marguerite Clark, who is fea- tured in the dual role of the Prince and the Pauper," reaches the arts tic climax of her career in her mar yelous interpretation of these dis tinctly different, yet closely asso- ciated characters.

 Whats his name?" Johnston was asked while M Chicago recently. Johnston was impressiyely dilating upon the merits of his man.
 Hanged if l know what his last name is," replied Johnston. "He answers to Auguie when you call It." Auguie, Johnston says, is the most frightened oattier in the bus !ness. He has speed and he is so afraid he Is going to be hit when he gets in a ring that he can't Dc caught.
 "Auguie was fighting Silen- Mar tin recently and he got hit in an early round,' said Johnston. "He hit the floor and when he got up told him to run. Talk about speed! Why, Auguie ran so fast for the next five rounds Martin had his tongue hanging out while he tried to catch him. Then when he was dog tired, Auguie flew into him and gave him U beautiful lac ing.

Averages Show Pitchers Fail
 With Rlndgeon.

That pitchers cannot and, there fore, are not expected to hit the ball, is readily proved by glance at the 1916 National League aver ages.
 Of the last forty-two men in the standing thirty-four of them are pitchers, while the other eight are mostly recruits who have been found wanting. The best swat av- craze in the bunch was .1SS, while the lowest is .O75.

Schofield Officer Replies to
Army and Navy Register
in Strong Letter ..

Whether or not Col. Richard C.
Croxton, 1st Infantry, Schofield Bar
racks, believes in the timfl worn
phrase about the comparative strength
Of the pen and sword, he shows ability
to protect himself ina letter to the
Army and Navy Register and printed
in the issue of that paper September
2. r' z.j e. y. -.{.'.,.. +.
The letter, which is much too long
to print in these columns, was writ
ten on July in response to an edi-
torial appearing in the military publ
cation and which bore the title, More
About Army Recruiting" The editori-
al stated that one army officer had
advocated the use of the moving pic
ture machine for getting men into the
army, but that the plan had been
dropped when the discovery was
made that the cost of such work a
year would be 1880, 600. Col Crox'
ton takes himself to be the Officer
referred to in the article and answers
accordingly. He declares that the cost
per week would not exceed $500 for
moving picture party. -
However, his argument for the use
of the machine is of much interest, the
colonel stating here and there in part:
THE idea is not to fire and entice
youths from home but to show the
parents of such youths that the work
is healthy and good for the husky
young man and will make him a better
producer and husband. The idea Is
not to picture life of ease to coax
the lazy trifler, but to show mans
lob and get real men. An honest set
of pictures taken by a sensible man
will show the Indifferent man that ne
will not fit in the job, and by show
ing these pictures in the smaller cit
les and towns we will offer a good job
to American born young men instead
of being largely dependent, as now,
