By FRANK QUIGLEY.N Evidently Jsclc Frost is playing hide and seek with the members of the Omaha Amateur Base Ball association for it is a sure plunge he was in the neighborhood yesterday. Lool at mosphere conditions were respon sible for the postponed games. Some of the cherry smashers are not in love with nursing a sore lunch hook and aching bones, consequently these sugar coated animals found a. more approp late place to spend their Hours ot leisure yesterday atternoon But the balance are hungry for base ball and Christmas weather does not toss them off the track and even the fans are ready to gobble up the brand of base ball dished up, even it it is necessary for them to jig around in their heavy togs in order to re main comforlable during the show. Some Brave Jack Frost. . Of course, the stands were rather bearish, but there was quite a bunch that decorated the side lines at the various municipal lots. With one exception all the games in the major league were postponed the exception being the bout between the Krajicckj and the Council Bluffs ongeways. All the battles billed in the Ameri can league were pulled off. The largest score in this league was com piled by the Sample Harts. Said crew danced over the pan with 26 runs, while the opposition gathered quartet. in this battle McKeague, a stranger in these woods, introduced himself by belting the pill to the reiHOte corners of the lot. Durinp the argument he collected a pair of drives for the limit and two for the half way station. Pinault twirled grand ball, keeping the slugging Trimbles low in the belt 'eni column. All Boosters Play. The Booster league came over the hill with a clean slate. Four battles billed and all delivered. The four.glimmed Riggs Optical gang battled for eleven rounds with the Townsends and when the curtain was pulled it was found that each contingent had picked up seven counters. This is the initial knotted battle of this season going eleven innings, Only 44 runs was 'the total am massed during the Harley-Davidson-Homesteads jamboree. The Home stead kids showed spurts of speed and copped the heavy end of a 23 to 18 score. In the Intercity leaorue the'Dailv pews children were busy pumping air to make tne grade around the paths. This bunch rolled up 35 runs while the Graham Ice Creams hooked 4. Well, ice cream doesn't travel at a fast clip in cool weather, just wait until the torrid days roll around and the Graham Ice Creams wjll uncover the real article. t Another wrangle went over the limit jthe quarrel between the Dresn ers, and Phillips Dept. Store, the Dreshers copping the long end in the 10th stanza by 8 to 5. - i Kraijs Go Fast Although the Kraijiceks of Greater Omaha league looked tail-enders to many when the rang they are still erabbin the like bell the gravy. Yesterday they trimmed the much touted team across the pond, namely the C. B. Longeways, to the tune of 9 to 5. . In the City league Morris & Co. upset the dope of the Central Fur niture Store antKwon, while the Na tional Cash Register handed a lemon to the Stags: Last season the Stags had a clean slate until close to the iinisn. , Next Thursday the American league will convene and settle the disputed game between the Florence Mer chants and Trimble Bros. x The . principals . of the various schools have been looking for Joe Waverin, who has charge of the en closed,parks, jointly with Jacobs and Isaacson. It, seems as though they are anable to get Waverin when needed. rUiiey an use the parks for the school kids at a,ny time, accord ing to Waverin, whether or not he is notified. .. Mathewson Declines Offer by Y, M. C. A. of Post in France m Cincinnati, April 28. Christopher Mathewson, manager -of the Cincin nati Nationals, announced that he will remain with the local team for the prejentat least and will not accept the invitation of officials of the Y M. C.

"Upstairs and Down." a comedy in three acts, by Frederick and Fanny Hatton, under direction of Oliver Morosco. The cast: UPSTAIRS Anthony Ives Mr. Fred, TicTin Nancy Ives (hi wife).... Miss Frances Ring Tidri Robert Van Courtland....Mr. Orlando Daly Elsie Hunt, a widow.. Miss Roberta Arnold Elisabeth Chesterton. .Miss Ann MacDonaJd Alice Chesterton, her debutante sister Miaa Frances Mann Tom Cary, Ives cousin.... Mr. Paul Harvey Captain Terence O'Keefe, of the English polo learn Mr. Robert Ellis DOWNSTAIRS Sprang, the butler. Mr. Herbert Aahton Plorre, the chef Mr. Herbert Far J con Rosalie, Mrs. Ives' French maid Miss Helen Blnnot Nelly, the parlor maid.... Miss Elatns Ivans Craig, a chauffeur Mr. Alec Uuln Louis L Tour, O Keefe's man Mr. Louis Christy A matron of some experience and considerable range of observation says the Hattons did not invent any thing when drawing the "baby vam pire character lor their snappy comedy; they merely took her from life, and that the sort is not at all uncommon s in these supersophisti cated times. At 19 one may be but a debutante, and demurely submit to being called a child, and yet know a whole lot. And why not, when "Up stairs and Down" and similar feats of dramaturgy are spreading the knowl edge that used to be gained in otlier ways? The child who attends the theater with anything like assiduity nowadays may easily be much wiser at. 19 than her grandmother was at 90. Heigh-ho 1 Declining io register amazement at any suggested precocity on part of a New York girl who knows her way about, one may yet obtain a lot of real satisfaction while watching this cleverly put, together play. It may or it may not express with fidelity some thing pf the doings of the rich who are idle, in a manner of speaking, but who employ their waking hours more in frivolity than in useful efforts; who do a lot of indecorous things, but ex pect from their servants th primmest of demeanor at all times, and express horror at the thought of anything going on below stairs of the nature of the program of the day upstairs. Again, heigh-ho. Allowing for the frankly disclosed inconsistencies of the play, one may rejoice that it is handled by a com pany of exceeding ability. . Robert Luis, as the vagrant breaker of hearts who is at last caught in the net, is handsome, dashing and of a manner. and gets better as he leaves off flirt ing and becomes serious in his love- making. Paul Harvey, a mountain of a man, conciuaes a reauy good ex hibition of good-natured, sincere awkwardness with a bit of cave man wooing that brings shouts of glee from the watchers. Louis Christy, as valet to the popular Captain O'Keefe, like master, like man," makes love to everything wearing petticoats be low stairs, but foozles at the finish. His LaTour is one of the glistening gems, in the! ensemble of brightness. rred liden, often commended for sterling work; Mr. Ashton. Mr. Far- jeon and Mr. Guin all have a share in the excellent result attained. On the other side, Miss Frances Mann does the baby vampire to the finish; she lies and cheats, and finally, in the moment of her triumph she re lents; through pity of herself alone, and following her selfishness to the end, removes the obstacle that stood between . two Joving hearts, her sister's and that of the captain. Miss MacDonald plays the sister with judg ment and good effect Frances Ring is very good as the wife who wearies of the social round and seeks her hus band's sidCat last, while Miss Arnold, Miss Sinrott and Miss Ivans add to the joy of the evening in many ways. N. .ii.i Vaudeville at the Orpheura. The Orpheum appears toe cele brating home-coming week this week. The five prominent acts of the Sven on the bill are old favorites in maha. - . ' First olace troes to Will Cressv and Blance Dayne, who are making then annual visit to theOmaha playhouse, this time appearing in Mr, Cassy's satire on newspaper liie, "The Wyom ing Whoop." This is the sketch which deals with the Wyoming editor who pacifies his irate subscribers with the aid of a "six-guri." But while the story remains the same Mr. Cressy has re-vamped the lines to introduce more modern topics despite the fact that the war wasn't on when Wyom ing editors carried their artillery dangling from. their waists. But the audience didn't notice it or perhaps didn't care, being thoroughly satis fied with the sketch anyhow. After a brief excursion into the field of musical comedy, Harry and Emma Sbarrock have returned, to vaudeville with their "fair ground fakirs" skit - The Sharrocks will al waya find favor, because , they per form about as startling feats of men tal telepathy as any such, acts with the additional merit of providing 20 minutes of genuine fun. Paul Morton and Naomi Glass' are seen once more in their pleasing musical satire "1918-1950." Al Shayne, with tne capable assistance of an un named co-worker, furnishes several minutes of rollicking enjoyment with his nonsensical burlesque. William De Marest and Estelle Collette play the violin and cello well and De Marest's comedy capers and trifling talk provokes constant - merriment "Color Gems" is a novelty posing sketch which is gVeatly enhanced by clever electrical work and lighting 29, 1918.
