OF Mr.. Hobart by a motion picture

ducars to obtain the services of play
wrights of repute.
Though there have been adaptations
OF plays Of many Of the most success

past, not a great many playwrights
lave written expressly for the screen;
the exceptions being George Middle

to this list is therefore an important
enc.
By his creation OF the famous
"Dinkelspiel" stories which were af-
forward translated to the vaudeville
stage, and the John Henry" stories
/ which were late staged and played
by the late Dan Daily, Mr.. Hobart won

Calumet & Arizona Bosses Walk Away From Copper Queen Stars In Exciting Benefit Game.

In one of the most humorous games played on a local ball field, the shift bosses of the Copper Queen and C. z A. donned uniforms and served up "n alleged game yesterday morning. As ball players, they are good shift -1ccss. After seven strenous innings, they quit, with the c. & A. the victor by score of F to 10.
 Some of the stunts pulled would make Charlie Chaplin go to driving truck. The bosses were greeted by large crowd, and a majority of the fans present stated that they certainly received their moneys worth
 Some of the players were quite proficient, no matter on what posi- tion they were placed. During the seven innings, Ligon of the Queens played catcher, pitcher and second base, respectively. He wore a bright red uniform, which made him look quite distinguished. The only trou- ble was that it was about six years too young for him.
 Among the others on the Queen team who were alleged all around players, holding down two or three positions during the game, were Lyons, Hughes and Cosgrove. The | c. X A. fingers did not change posi- tions during the session. Empires Critchley and Sam Briscoe officiated.
 The game was for the benefit of the local chapter of the Red Cross and the gate receipts of the morning amounted to about s100.00

 Neither side scored during the sixth session. but in the seventh in- ming. Laurenson, Vache. and Pittman each scored, accompanied by an out burst of applause that was deafen- ing. That brought the score to 5 in the Tigers favor. The Tigers did not get home during the seventh in ming. The eighth inning was pas sed up by both teams without any runs, and when the ninth opened, it looked like the Tigers game.
 Fans Satisfied.
 Pittman, and Porter each landed a base hit. and then Bert Whaling. of the Queen. landed on the ball for a beautiful two base hit. scoring beth men, and incidentally scoring himself when another single was made. The Tigers were retired during this in- ming without being able to pass the mark set by their opponents.
 A brilliant double play between second baseman Carnes and Porter. in the last inning. spelled doom for the Tigers. Harkins remained in the box for the Queen until the fourth in- ming. when he was retired for lief ty" Harris, one of the most spectac- ular pitchers in the league. Harris allowed only two runs after entering the box. Evans pitched good steady ball for the Tigers for seven innings. allowing but two runs up to that time, but in the seventh session, the.

 Without a doubt, it was one of the most exciting games ever served up to local fans, who went away satis- fled that they had witnessed some real baseball. Critchley and Crow ley officiated as umpires. The en- lire game was pulled off without fitch on the part of either team.
