TWO FALLS IN SHORT TIME First in 12 J Minutes and Second in O Toe Hold Breaks Up Semi-Windup. Frank Gotch, champion heavyweight wrestler of the world, made short work of his bout with Jac Leon, the "Russian Lion," at the Grand opera house, Davenport, last evening, win ning two straight falls. Gotch went after his man from the start and had the Russian rolling about the mat try ing to defend himself. The first fall came in 12 minutes and the second one after but six minutes. A head lock was responsible for the first and a crotch and half-nelson for the second. After the bout Referee Joe Coffey, promoter for the Empire Athletic club of Chicago, tried to arrange a bout between Gotch and Zbyszko, the Polish wrestler, but the champion would not enter into any agreement as yet, a3 he said he wanted at least six weeks to train for this bout. He appeared a little wary of the Poll 'since Dr. Roller failed to put him ou his back in several hours of wrestling at Kan sas City. To Hold Stop Boat. The semi-final bout between Harry Warnken and Dave Henschen, the Davenport Turner wrestlers, for the Turner championsh'ip of Daveuport, was stopped after the former had scored one fall. He put Henschen to the mat in 17 minutes with a half nelson and crotch hold. After six and a half minutes of wrestling for a sec- otid fall, Henschen secured a toe hold on the winner f the first fall and twistod the foot so badly that the bout had to be stopped. Referee John Voss of this city declared the bout a draw. In the preliminary go between Carl Becker and Harry Mulford for the 130 pound championship of Davenport, only one fall was scored, and the match was declared a draw. The boys pulled and tugged at each other for 30 minutes without a fall and at the end of that ti:ne they took a rest of a few minutes and then returned to the mat. After 18 minutes more of wrest ling Becker won a fall, and as it was getting late, the bout vi!S terminated. Good Crowd Srm C'liamp. Champion Gotch drew a large crowd, wrestling fans from all over the three cities gathering to see the big fellow in action. The fans were not disappointed with the card given them, as it was high clas3 in every respect, and the promoters hope that future bouts will benefit by it to a considerable extent. KETCHEL DOES WELL TO SECURE A DRAW Hardly Holds Own in 6-Round Bout With Frank Klaus at Pitts burg. Pittsburg, March 24. Stanley Ketchel, middleweight champion, did well to win a popular approval of "draw" in his six-round bout hit night with Frank Klaus, a local boy. before the largest audience ever gathered together under the auspices of the P;ttsburg National Sporting club. For the first three rounds Klaus led repeatedly withotit return by Ketchel. The last three periods were slow and uninteresting, Klaus holding on to last out the bout strong and Ketchel evidently uncon ditioned, even for such a short dis tance.

The press agent says: " The usual custom when a representative of a theatrical attraction makes prices for his attraction with the managers of the various theatres has always been to see how high he can place the price for the best seats. Not so for The Irish Senator." which is booked to ap pear at the Illinois next Sunday, mat inee and night. AH their printed con tracts read that the prices must be 23, 35 and 50 cents, and no higher, for their argument is that it is far bet ter to get a packed house at these prices than have over two-thirds of the seats sold at a higher price. For the past five seasons James McCabe has been identified with $1 and $1.50 musical attractions. Now he knows that it is policy to give theatregoers a first class attraction at popular prices and the earnings of 'The Irish Senator' so far this season justifies the policy being pursued by this at traction."

Virginia Earle. 10 years ago the brightest 6tar on Broadway, the idol of the theatre- going world, the queen of all musical comedy stars, was taken from her residence at 214 West One Hundred and Ninth street at midnight on Tues day in an unconscious condition. With two doctors attending her. she was placed in a private ambulance and driven, from the shabbily furnished fiat in which she has passed the last six months. Ten years ago Virginia Earle made her home In one of the most expensive suites in the city. At. one time she was famous for her dia monds and jewelry, but Tuesday night when she was carried down the nar row stairs there was only one man in the house who remembered Virginia Earle for what she had been. Vir ginia Earle, whose last appearance was in vaudeville, has been living 'or some time in a four room fiat at ZU West One Hundred and Ninth street. She has had no work thi3 seasoii and her friends sayshe has been despond ent and. melancholy. Tuesday night she came in at 10 o'clock and climbed the stairs to the little four room flat which she shared with Miss Lawton. A few moments later neighbors heard her fall to the floor. They telephoned to the janitor, who found the door of Miss Earle's flat locked. He broke it open' and found the actress lying on the floor unconscious. Two doctors worked over the woman for nearly an hour, and she was finally taken to some hospital. On the way she cried that she would be "out In a few days." Some believe that Miss Earle tried suicide. yyHEX the stomach is weak, the bowels constipated and the liver inactive, you need the Bitters badly. Delay only causes countless days of misery. Insist on flOSTETTER' tWj CELEBRATED STOMACH BITTER MR, FAN WON'T KNOW THE PARK Improvements Being Made Which Entirely Change Its General Appearance. LOOKS NEW AND FRESH Green Grass Diamond, Remodeled Enlarged Clubhouse, and Re- ( painted Fence. The ball park will present an entirely new and fresh appearance this year when Mr. Fan makes his first trip there a week from Sunday to see the initial game of the year. The newness will he due not only to the changes which have been made in the diamond, but in various other things as well. Among these Js an enlarged and re modeled clubhouse, improvements In the stands and a fresh coat of slate- colored paint everywhere. At present the fence and, stands are covered with a coat of mineral red paint .which, though very pretty and serviceable as well, did not suit the directors. At their meeting Tuesday night at the New Harper they decided to repaint with a slate color if It was not found too expensive, and satisfactory ar rangements have been made with the firm of Lindbloom & Nelson, which has the contract for the painting. The painting is to start at once and will be finished In a few days. The work on the clubhouse is almost com pleted and the grass diamond will be ready for service early next week. Mr. Fan will hardly recognize Island City park, but he will like it much better than last year, especially after the pennant is flung to the breeze May 23. What' the I.lnenp? With the 30-odd recruits packing their trunks preparatory to reporting next week and everything ready for the season to open, the one thing that is now bothering the baseball bugs is "what is to be the lineup for the first game?" The game referred to is the one set for Sunday, April 3, at which time the squad will be divided into two teams which will endeavor to eat each other up. Not a day passes now but Manager Jack Tighe is besieged with a host of questions as to the probable lineup who is to pitch the first game, whom he expects to make good, what he will do with the men he don't want, and in fact almost every question that the busy fan can think of. A little bird has whispered that this is what will happen: The big manager will line the players up Just as he sees fit when the time for the game comes; nearly all the pitchers will get a chance to show their worth in the first game for an inning at least; each in dividual is expected by some one to make good, and it remains to be seen who really will do so; and those who don't make good will be sold, farmed, or released outright. Now, if that doesn't satisfy Mr. Fan. he will have to figure out the answers for himself, as Manager Tighe says he Is not as yet in position to answer all the things that are asked him. team matches. Following is the schedule of team matches: Monday First infantry, compan ies C. D and I. Tuesday Second Infantry, com panies A. C, I and L; 7th infantry, company B.

BATTERY DAN KNOWN AS "EASY JUDGE" IS DEAD One of the Picturesque Products of "Tammany Looked Ltightly on Crime. New York, March 24. Daniel E. Finn ("Battery Dan"), Tammany leader and city magistrate, died yes terday afternoon at his home. 569 Broom street. Among the many pic turesque products of Tammany few had a wider reputation for original ity than Magistrate Finn. He was a man of much rough humor and of good nature, too. In his conduct of affairs political he was, of course, of the most approved Tammany stripe. In the years Battery Dan had been on the bench he had earned the name of the "Easy Judge." The late Patrick Divver, also a district lead er, never made wholesale discharges of prisoners as did Finn. Battery Dan, according to the police, looked lightly upon serious cases. Discharging prisoners, in short, was Finn's specialty. The men who were taken before him on charges of gambling, liquor violations and al lied offenses were rarely punished.
