ball pennant race determined to bet third place in the National League gonfalOn.
 The enlistment in the marines of Jack Miller, who had been chosen to succeed Miller as manager when the latter assumed the leadership of the New York Americans, caused President Branch Hickey to cast about for a new manager He set tied upon Jack Hendricks, who had an enviable record in minor league baseball and who was under con- tract with Indianapolis in the Ameri- can Association, and finally secured his services.
 Jack Miller second baseman, and Marvin Goodwin, pitcher-the former in the marines and the latter in an aviation camp--are the only regulars now in military service. Betzel, who has been on the club payroll for several years, has been selected to fill Miller's place and although his work is not equal to that of the star Hendricks pronounces it 'ssatisfac tory" To bolster up the pitching staff Sherdall was secured from Mil waukee in the American Association as was Robinson from Little Rock. Ark, in the Southern Association.
 Rogers Hornsby, temperamental .Ia fx. for several months refused to talk terms and until the training season was week under way declined to affix his signature to a contract. Hornsby for some time had been the central figure in numerous reported trades in which President Hickey was said to have held his star to be worth many thousands of dollars Although his failure to sign was not attributed with authority to this sit uation it is known that President Hickey visited Hornsby at his home and if any concessions were demand ed met them.
 Quite by contrast as to age, for Hornsby is but 21. is Bobby Wallace. who now at an advanced age for a ball player, is acting as the aggres- sive substitute for the younger star. Wallace has seen round of ser vice in the major leagues both as player and umpire.
 Jack Smith, outfielder. the only real holdout on the club, will appear in the lineup entirely on his own initiative as Manager Hendricks has announced he will barley over terms with him no longer. Heathcote, a collegian from Pennsylvania State, is almost assured a berth in the outfield. Menze, another outfielder is product of the St. Louis sand lots and will be given a thorough tryout. This is in line with the

Garden of Eden' and Glass Stage Shown in The Soul of a Magdalen."

Exquisite stage settings of intrl- cacy and beauty mark the Metro Popular Plays and Players produc- tion, "The Soul of a Magdalen, with Mime. Petrova as star, which will be seen at the Coliseum thea tre tomorrow night. Written by l.. Case Russell, this ive-part photo drama has been directed by Burton l.. King and photographed by Harry B. HaVis, Lester vermilya, techni- cal director, being responsible for the scenic marvels displayed.
 "The Soul of a Magdalen" shows a room with secret panel, which, sliding back, discloses a richly dec orated inner room, called "The Gar den of Eden'' Here a Bohemian set disports itself under the leader ship of a wealthy patron of the arts. A raised glass stage is Illuminated from below, throwing into relief the figures of Hawaiian girls dancing to their native music The center Of the scene is the Eve of the mo- ment (Mme. Petrova).
 Other scenes show the interior of an exclusive Fifth Avenue modiste's establishment. Gowns of the lat est mode are shown in profusion. Of these Mime. Petrova as Heloise selects those that best fit her class ic type of beauty.

able feature to all lovers of romance. Perhaps too much reliance is placed upon the introduction of goats, dogs, and "such small deer" in or der to create bucolic interest, but in spite of this trivial handicap the picture proceeds smoothly enough to it's destined end.
 One feels sure from the start that true love, as represented by the blacksmith and the village maid, will prove triumphant, in spite of the vampirish attractions of the lady of high degree. For all that, Harry Mercy, as the big blacksmith, manages to win the sympathy of the audience and the part suits him cap itally. As to Gladys Leslie, who portrays the wistful Molly, it must be said that her shy, sweet manner isms are precisely the quantity needed to make the heroine popu- lar. Betty Blyth is scornfully beau tiful as the Lady Mary, and com petent support is given by the other members of the company.
 Considered as a light comedy drama, the probabilities which must not be too severely criticized when the usual license is made for such productions, His Own People" reg isters as pleasing entertainment, well directed and presenting a num- Der of praiseworthy Irish scenes. The photography is clear, distinct, and in every way equal to the high standard camera work establishe ed by Vitagraph.

 Dear Mr. Corbett: CD In poker, ploying with the joker counting as anything, which is the higher hand -four deuces and joker or royal flush? CD Does a royal flush have to be in spades or can royal flush be held in the other suits?
 JACK TOTAL.
 0)s It all depends upon the ruling made by the players before the game started. The joker hasn't a legiti- mate place in a joker deck. When it is introduced it is up to the play CTS to rule among themselves as to whether five of kind will beat a royal flush @ Royal flushes can be held in any suit
 Dear Mir. Corbett: Five men are playing draw poker. A opens the jackpot. The other players throw away their hands. Must the opener show his whole hand or only the openers? Thank You.

our banquet with him.

Lancaster People Want
Toll Roads Made Free

Lancaster, Pa, April 19.-The free
ing of the Lancaster and Williams
town and the Lancaster and Eliza
bettown turnpike by the state and
county has been followed by action
of individuals and organizations in
all sections of the country, demand
ing the freeing of other toll roads, of
which Lancaster county has a very
large number.
The people of Columbia are par
ticularly anxious to have the turn
pike running from that place to
Lancaster freed, as it is part of the
Lincoln highway through this sec
tion. The road in question has been
slated for purchase, the money even
being appropriated, but a right-of
way lease to the Conestoga Traction
Company is holding up the matter.
The Lancaster and Columbia cars
are operated on this pike. 1t has been
a profitable lease for the trolley COM
pany, but the fact that it calls for
possession for q period of 999 years
complicates the negotiations.
Believing there is an unwarranted
delay in the purchase negotiations,
the business and motor men have
adopted the following very strong
resolution:
Resolved, That the Merchants and
Manufacturers Association, of Co
lumbia, and the Columbia Automo-
bile Club give their moral and finan-
cial aid to a proposed legal investi-
cation of certain peculiar phases of
the aforementioned lease, and also
of the combined profits of the Cone
stoga Traction Company and the
Lancaster and Susquehanna Turn
pike Company from the operation of
the turnpike road. with reference to
a recent decision of the public serv-
ice commission in a similar case"
