RELIABLE JAMES CAMERON SIGNED

First Baseman t)f Last Season Once More in the Quaker Fold. MINZLER WAS RELEASED. POPULAR SHORT STOP'S STICK WORK RESPONSIBLE FOR JESSUP'S ACTION LEAGUE SEASON OPENS IN RICHMOND MAY 8 (By Tort) Manager Jessup announced last evefling' that he had secured the. signed contract of Jim Cameron, the. polo star who also was a member of the local independent base ball club a part of last season, and that he would net into the game next Sunday. Cameron will be played at hla old position, first ba.se. end his addition will give the team its required batting strength. It is probable that Burns, the bis southpaw first baseman, will be shifted to the outfield. Cameron, Parker, Hurst, Baumann and Hambraugh are good reliable batters. Manager Jesup and JShinn are also players who can be depended upon to hit well. Burns has not yet shown that he can line 'em out but he appears to be a youngster who will hit with the best of them after he gets to playing regularly. As the team now stands, summing everything tip, it should be the best hitting and fielding aggregation that has represented this city on the diamond for ome time. Minzler Released. Manager Jessmp yesterday handed "Gov." Minzler, the popular little hortetop. his release. Richmond fans will hat to sco the little fellow go, but Manager Jefuuip was forced to take thia action as there appeared to be no place on the team for the Germantown midget. He is a beautiful fielder, but his work with, the stick is light. It was because of Bauman's superior batting that he was chosen over Minzler. Jessup at Marion. Manager Jeesup left this morning for Marlon where he will play in the polo games between the two all-star toams. These teams play there again Wednesday night and on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights they will show at Muncie. The little manager is not expected home until next Sunday, when the Quakers will probably lineup against the ancient enemy, the Dayton Shilohs. During t he absence of Jospup. Captain Parker will have charge of the squad, and he states that all of the men will be given a. thorough workout in final preparation for the league sea&on. which opens a week from today with the locals at Van Wert. On Friday, May S, the opening of the I.-O. league season will bo observed liere with Logansport as the attraction. ,The usual parade to tiie park and the customary ceremonies there will be observed. Mayor Schillinger will probably heave the first, ball over the plate, or in the general direction of the plate. It is expected that there will be a big crowd in attendance.

The muscles of the stomach in old ae are noj s strong ort active as in youth and in const qaence old people aro very subject to constipation and indigestion. Many seldom have a bowel movement without artificial aid. Many, also, have unpleasant eructations of pas from the stomach after eating.

The game went seven innings, the southland collegians winning out 1 to o. Can toll was in the box for the Kent tick ians and the Quakers could do nothing with his delivery. White was also very effective and received good support. It was a misplay on his part that lost the game.

Because the prosecuting witnesses in their casts did not wish to appear against them and assume the publicity that, would result. Frederick Botts and French Laster, two young men charged with attempting to abuse women and girls, were released on their own recognizance in the Wayne circuit court yesterday. Both were ordered to leave the city and not return. The young men promised. Bobbs was charged with provoking Mary Sherry, a little girl. It was alleged he made improper advances toward her some days ago and she resented and appealed to the police. The arrest of Botts followed. He has been confined in jail for some time awaiting trial. French Laster is a young Tennessee nathe who was arrested and charged with assault and battery on Miss Mary McGreevy. Laster could cive- no I plausible story of his whereabouts on the night of the assault and the authorities believed he could have been convicteu upon trial. He is an ignorant young man. who neither can read nor write, lie gae his age as eighteen. The lad claimed never to have been in trouble before. Botts has served time. Kn:w His Business. A circus man recently ordered s large advertising poster of his show to be printed and objected because there was so much clear sky in it.

MUNICIPAL LIGHT PLANTS FAILURES

Marston Says He .Knows of None That Are Not a Burden to Tax Payers. HE COMES TO RICHMOND. WILL ADDRESS MEMBERS OF THE COMMERCIAL CLUB AND HIS SPEECH WILL BE TIMELY IN VIEW OF AGITATION HERE. Glenn Marston. a municipal statistician of New York city, has been secured by the Commercial club to deliver an address in this city Monday, May 11. Mr. Marston has made an especial study of municipal matters and the club deemed it particularly apropos to hear bis lecture while the cit v is considering again the proposition of the Richmond Light, Heat and Power company to purchase iho muni cipal electric light plant. Mr. Marston has lectured throughout the country and it is said his addresses set forth matters not, usually considered in questions dealing with municipal ownership. He asserts conditions in this country are not the same br in England and Scotland, which countries are cited constantly for reference and comparison in discussion of municipal subjects. Mr. Marston is said to be a very pleading talker. Mr. Marston holds that the only form of public control of public utilities that has met with enough success to justify its continuance, is through state commissions. The, demand for public control is declared not to be caused by a general laxity on the part of corporations, but is due to abuse of privilege on the part of a comparatively small number of companies. He holds the demand for some kind of adequate control first found exnrcsskm in the wave of muni cipal ownership which spread over ihe country a few years ago. Ha declares it to have been a step in the right direction as it showed that tho public is waking up to the abuses which have been countenanced under the often almost, unlimited powers granted to corporations through their franchises. The statistician claims it was expected municipal ownership would cure all the ills to which a corporation is heir. The result was lound to be just the opposite. Public ownership in the Tinted States has proved a failure. It is assorted by Mr. Marston that he does not know a single electric lighting or gas plant in the United States, which gives good service at reasonable rates without being a burden on the tax payer. "These losses are often concealed by clever bookkeeping" Mr. Marston has stated "but the real facts eventually must become known and we find that in the last fourteen months, about thirty municipal lighting plants have been sold, leased or a bandoned one every two weeks." Stale control is pointed to as the remedy by Mr. Marston. He claims the ideal public service law would provide for regulation of rates and capital expenditures, publicity of reports, a uniform system of accounting, limiting competition power to compel improvements in service, and regulation of combinations and consolidations. Absolute power for commissions is not advocated but appeal should be so limited that, a company can not run to the courts repeatedly and have the ruling of the commission set aside. a o
