some record. Most of the games were
played away from home in q three
months season.
Leeds business men; donated $500
and with so small contribution tho
given wholeheartedly, this alone gives
to Manager Rife an unprecedented
record. Out Of proceeds for the games
played he maintained the organiza-
tion intact thruout the playing sea-
son. From a financial as well as
playing standpoint, Rife is declared
to have been one Of the most success
full playing managers operating club
in these parts. In addition he main
tanned absolute decorum among his
players, most of them thoro students
Of baseball and all men with future.
All are now in their respective homes

ADJUSTMENTS
At the Fort Armstrong.

For real oLd-fashioned melodra-
matte thrills OF the sort our fore
fathers used to experience in the
good old days OF the mellerdrama,
we can safely recommend William
A. Brady's picture production of
Life" released by Paramount,
which was shown at the Fort Arm
strong yesterday. That the photo
play caught on there can be little
doubt. The story has genuine heart
interest and appeal and even the
most blase film fan watched the
development OF the plot with a fer
vor that was astonishing. The pro-
duction as a whole is a good one
and the players enacting the var
tous roles were with few exceptions
quite, convincing The story in
brief has to do with the conviction
OF an innocent man Of murder and
of his exoneration by his wife after
many complications have been
overcome. The cast includes among
others such capable players as
Jack Mower, Airline Pretty, J. H.
Gilmore, Nita Naldi and Rod La
ROGUE. It's well worth seeing.

tinues to please with popular
