A hatchet bearing un mistakable evidence of use reposed on Ids, with one slightly disabled foot relng on the patent beer bottle stopper, was stuffed tiger, whose ferocity of appearance doubtless was sufficiently explained by badly dislocated tall. Artistic veracity on the part of the taxidermist explained a deep gash to the tiger' breast and broken leg.' It had sot been expeoted that Mr. Met calfe would make the presentation speech, nd his appearance and address were both - evidently an agreeable addition to the pro gram, judging from his receptloa. It may have been due to the lively applause which followed the actual unveiling ot Mr. Bryan's ' handsome photograph, or to the eloquence of Mr. Metcalfe's periods, or to the play ot the shadows, but It was averred by some of he members that the lines about Mr. Bryan's month. a his lithographed present ment deepened Into conoentrlo playfulness and the eyes sparkled with twinkling warmth.

Miller's recent anxiety when chairman ot the democratic executive committee. Ed ward Howell 3 Insisted on dictating who should be selected as clerks In Mr. Miller's office and expected something to drop. Mr Miller said the successful management of political affairs involved something more than the formulation' of arbitrary orders by would-be dictators and' complacent obe dience on the, part of all others. He care fully distinguished between the politician ' who has lofty ideals and the boss with a large sack open for contributions. He spoke of Ttlden as a representative of what he meant by a politician and Tweed as the selfish, unscrupulous, dictator . who never rose higher than a' boas. Hs said David 'B.

Two years ago Omaha theater-goers were charmed by the beauties of Mr. . Barrio's "Little Minister." Thursday night they were delighted with "The Professor's Love Story," one of his earlier efforts. There Is no straining or reaching out for a climax at any point In the play. ' All of the evente are natural. The comedy Is never forced, the humor being Infectious at all times, the atmosphere wholesome and the general tone uplifting. Mr. Wlllard returns to Omaha after an absence of nearly ten years, and his wel come was whole-hearted and genuine. Local theater-goers bad seen him before In only "The Middleman" and "Judah." Mr. WI1 lard's chief charm lies In his naturalness, his ability to do a thing effectively, appar ently without effort, and the artistic finish with which he endows his work. His supporting company with poeslbly a single exception Is sn excellent one, while the scenlo investiture Is praiseworthy. Nothing to compare with the wheat field scene of the second act or the combined exterior and Interior view of the professor' country cottage has been staged here re cently. "The Professor's Love Story" will be re peated tonight and Saturday matinee, and "David Oarrtck" will be the Saturday night offering.

WHITFIELD ANNOUNCES PLAYERS SIGNED Paekarit Perllaes to ay Whether Seaaoa Will Opea F.aat or West, bat Probability Favors Latter. DENVER, March IS. (Special Telegram.) The harmonious meeting ot the magnates ot the Western league was brought to a close today and the visiting base ball men returned to their homes, where considera ble work pievlous to the opening of the season awalta them. The league does not desire to fall Into the error of being obliged to revise Its schedule after publication. There will nec essarily be a conflict of dates at Kansas City and Milwaukee, but ths Western league magnatea feel that Nichols and Duffy will be able to hold their own In both cities. Duffy and Hart are now scouring the east for players and from the tele grams received from them they ars meeting with considerable success. Mr. Packard would not say whether the season would open up here or In the east. However, It seems that good Judgment would dictate having the season open up west on account of the evenness ot ths weather. President Whitfield announced the following players as signed, none ot the Peoria, Milwaukee or Dee Moines players appearing In the list: Omaha Catchers, Thomas, Hayes, Gond- tng and Reed; pitchers, Owens, Brown, Rls ley, Alloway, Gordon and Graham; Infield ers, Calhoun, Stewart, Hlckey, Dolan and Burg; outfielders, Carter, Genlns, Fleming and Stone. St. Joseph Catcher, Garvin; pitchers, Maupln, Parvtn, McFadden and Llns; In fielders, Brashear and Hall; outfielders, Belden, Hartman, GUI and Walters. Kansas City No catchers signed; pitch ers, Welmer, Gibson and Kid Nichols; in- fielders, Hlckey, Bbanon and Allen; outfield ers, Wsldron. Colorado Springs Catchers, Arthur, Baer- wald and Wlnson; pitchers, McNeely, Jones, Ream, Newmeyer and Gaaton; lnftelders, Kverltt, Frank, Oranvtlle, Devereaux and Holllngsworth: outfielders, Dennen, Barret and Hemph'li. Denver Catchers, Wilson and McConnell; pitchers, Byler, Schmidt, Hartsell, Water bury. Frisk and probably Webster; Infield ers. Davis, Delebanty, Radclllfe and Dun don; outfielders, Jones, Preston, Honey man and Pace. ' Hugh Duffy ot Milwaukee, Joe Quinn of Des Moines and Billy Hart of Peoria are on the warpath for players and from re cent advices they will soon have a full complement of men. Manager McKibben of St. Joseph Is after another good catcher and more Inflelders. No representatives of the National league or of the National Association of Minor Base Ball Leaguea having been present, the meeting ot the Western league has proved to be less Important than was prophesied. President James Whitfield speaks with con- fldence concerning the outlook for the season snd predicts that Milwaukee and Peoria, ths new members, will strengthen ths league. Mr. Whitfield said today that Johnny Kllng would probably be connected with one of the western teams, either as manager or holder of an lntereet. No objection has been raised to the action ot President' Whitfield In endorsing the playing rules accepted by the Buffalo con ference. He informed the owners and repreeentatlves ot the teams that ths foul strike rule would be modified satisfactorily, as it would be devoid of Its confusing fea tures when.lt was finally approved by the rules committee The committee on schedule,, of which President Whitfield Is chairman, ek-officlo. has prepared a draft ot schedule, but It Is still undergoing revision snd will not be made public until late In March or early In April. It has been agreed to open the playing season on Wednesday, April 23, and closo September 22. It was also agreed to Ignore the playing dates of the American association In preparation of the achedule. BASKET BALL GAMES TONIGHT Two Teams from glows: City Meet Locals at T. M. C. A. Gymaaslam.
