T GREET PLAYERS I DID SPLENDIDLY An attractive theatrical event for thiB city was the appearance of the Ben Greet players last evening at the High School auditorium when they appeared in "As You Like It." The auditorium Anas well filled with persons representing society and educational circles of this city. The company has very little scenery, and what changes are necessary are nmde so rapidly that one does not become tired out until time for the next scene. The players were all at their best last evening and received much applause. The appearance of Ben Gret was greeted with applause. He. is a wonderful actor, and his interpretations were certainly superb. In nearly all his plays Mr. Greet takes a minor part, but is such an actor that he makes the most menial part seem almost a part of more worlh. The parts of Duke Frederick and the Banished Duke, brothers, were taken by Grove Lane. Mr. Lane has a tne personality, and his work last evening was very creditable. George B. Hart, Ben Greet, and J. Winthrop took the parts of Amiens, Jaques and a lord, attending on the banished duke. They ere all good. Oliver, Orlando, Jacques Du Bois, sons of Sir Roland Du Bois, were taken by Leslie Austen, Laurence Eyre and Edmund Gorst. Laurence Eyre was very strong in his part of Orlando, and when he wrestles with his brother's friend occasions much favorable comment from his auditors. He has remarkable histrionic ability. "TouchBtone," the jester, taken ty Douglas Ross, was especially ludicrous and occasioned much laughter by his queer antics and rather clever remarks. Rosalind, taken by Isabel Merson. was very good. She has a most pleasing personality and is a charming woman. Cella, a demure maiden, is taken by Ruth Vivian. Miss Vivian has a dainty sweetness about her which is such an admirable attribute in an actress of this kind. Elizabeth Merson, as Phoebe, did her part well. The evening performance was well given and was thoroughly enjoved by all. The matinee performance was also veil attended. The company presented the "Taming of the Shrew." The scenes take place in and near Padua, at the houses of Baptista and Lucentlo. All the parts were well taken. The Art Association is to be congratulated upon the success of the affairs. It Is hoped that a large sum jf realized.

COMPLETE SCHEDULE ON RESTJOF SEASON Fourteen Games Arranged By Management of Richmond Team. As many of the games which the Richmond team scheduled early in the spring were cancelled by the disorganization of the Eastern Indiana league, a complete schedule of games with fast independent semi-professional teams has been made up. Games with fourteen teams have been scheduled until September 21 after which other gemes will ba scheduled. Thirteen of these games are at home, the only one scheduled for abroad is at Newcastle August 3. August 31 is the only open date before September 28. The following teams will play at the Athletic park June 22, double header. Senators, 5 innings. Bloomer girls, 7 innings; June 29, Cincinnati Shamrocks; July 6, Newcastle; July 13, West Badens Sprudels; July 20, Cambridge City; July 27, Cincinnati Shamrocks, August 10, Indianapolis Reserves; August 17, Dayton Lily Brews; August 24, Cambridge City; September 7, Cincinnati Y. M. I.'s; September 14, West Covington; September 21, Cambridge City. Bloomer Girls Sunday. A drawing card in the Bloomer girls, said to be the champion women's baseball team of the country has been scheduled here for Sunday afternoon at Athletic park. A double-header will be played, the Senators and Richmond team being scheduled for a five-inning game and the Richmond team and Bloomer girl3 for a seven inning game. The Bloomer girls recently defeated the Covington Wiedemans by a score of 4 to 3. They also won from the Dayton Superbas. They play but five or seven inning games. The Bloomer girls team has three men who play the positions of short stop, pitcher and catcher respectively. They also have a woman pitcher, Alleen Grace Sissler who was in the box when the girls defeated the Wiedemans. They agreed to play six or more girls in the game to be played here next Sunday. Webster Boy to Pitch. The Senators who will play the first game of the double header, is one of the strongest amateur teams in the county. Moore, of Webster, will pitch for the Senators. Moore is the fastest young pitcher being developed in this neighborhood and semi-professional men are watching him. He defeated New Paris and the Marshallettes of this city on their own grounds and the Richmond team expects a hot pitchers' battle. The first game will be played at 2:30. BASEBALL STANDS READY FOR PROBE Ban Johnson Says Congress Can Go Just As Far As It Desires to Go. (National News Association NEW YORK, June 17 Ban Johnson, president of the American league, arrived here yesterday on a tour of inspection and paid his first visit to the Polo grounds since Frank Chance's New Yorks began playing there. Asked about the talk of a congressional investigation of the so-called baseball trust he said: "If an investigation is intended we are ready. In fact we have always been ready, for we have nothing to conceal. But personally I don't believe congress will take action. If the lawmakers mean business, however, they ought to begin now instead of talking so much. The whole affair is so absurd that even though I have iust come from Washington I didn't take the trouble to talk it over with any persons who seemed to be interested. Fogel Only Anxious One. "Horace Fogel appears to be the only one eager to have baseball probed. If he has any evidence we are not aware of the fact. "What has the national commission done about ball player authors ?" Johnson was asked. "The American League has suppressed them" was the reply. "And I understand President Lynch of the National has had some correspondence with President Hempstead of the Giants regarding the articles purporting to be written and signed by McGraw, Mathewson, Marquard and Meyers. "If these players are not prevented from doing further newspaper work you can say that the commission will take a hand with new legislation. That may not happen until late in the year, however, but one thing is certain, ball players who pose as reporters will be barred from the press box during the world's series."

JOHNSTON ELECTED TO SCHOOL BOARD; FAIR PLAY TRIUMPHS (Continued from Page One.)

I tion of two years ago, that not one pen- ! ny was charged back to the members I cf the board. "In preparing the figures Mr. WilJ Hams has read he has failed to take : into consideration the enforced inj crease in teachers remunerations and i the building expenses." J Reasori For Increases, j Dr. M. F. Johnston was again given ' the floor. He said, "These reports j about me have been circulated for va rious reasons by three or four persons who were disappointed because of things which the school board did or did not do. In speaking in the increase in the school tax, Williams neglected to state that 16 ner cent of the increase ! in the school taxes resulted from the i building of the new high school.' I do not deny that we increased the salaries of the teachers. They demanded it and there was almost a strike at high school over the question of salaries. Even the custodians of the schools demanded higher wages and we were forced to meet with their demands." John F. Robbins, attorney for the board for many years, arose and defended Dr. Johnston. "In the years I was connected with the board I never had any knowledge of any irregularities on the part of any of the members of the board.. I differed with the members in some ways on the management of the school and the city superintendent but the board always handled every matter in the manner they thought best for the schools and the citizens. "it comes with bad grace for a county superintendent to complain about the expenditures of the board Every cent of money which comes to the board is used where it will do the most good. Best Schools in State. "There are no better schools in the state than ours and the management has been in the bands of the persons who are charged here with incompetence and irregularities. Who told Mr. Williams the things which he is insinuating tonight and what was told him? The council should demand that this be made public." Chairman Oscar Williams of the school committee then asked that the election be deferred one week until investigations could be made by this did not meet with the favor of the council who demanded an election. After the balloting, on the motion of Chairman Williams, Dr. Johnston's election was made unanimous. Seidel Is Pleased. Councilman Kaufman 'was confined to his home by illness but he had agreed to go to the council chamber if necessary and cast his vote for Johnston. George Seidel stated this morning that he was glad council had reelected Dr. Johnston. He said that he did not want the position as trustee of the schools but the school committee had insisted so strongly that he consented to have his name used. He said that he had taken no hand in the fight and that he had not spoken to a councilman on the subject. There Is Nothing Better.

I Advertisement) SPORTING NOTES - 1 (National News Association) NEW YORK, June 17 The latest plans for the world tour of the New York Giants and the Chicago White Sox next winter is for the teams and the accompanying party to charter their own ship and go all the way around in it. The idea has been suggested to Comiskey by Ban Johnson. The American League president has talked with steamship offlclals, and says a ves&el can be had. He thinks about two hundred persons could make the trip in the special boat, and says the cost per person of the trip woudl be reduced to about $1,200. Ban expects to go along, and if he does will call the annual meeting of the American League for November so that he can catch the boat. Johnson says that if the ship does go to the Antipodese he will come home from China, as he does not want to be away three or four months. NEW YORK, June 17. John F. Eliiott, president of the Pacific Association of the A. A. U., has invited A. R. Kiviat, Irish-American A. C, and Piatt Adams, N. Y. A. C, to form a part of the team of athletes to visit Australia and New Zealand next winter. The other members of the team will be selected from the athletes of the Pacific coast. In April thirty-seven sets of twins and three sets of triplets were born in Texas. ESTABLISHED 1890. MEATS

WILLIAMS' TRAIL IS NOW FOLLOWED

Following a trail slimy as that of a snake in the grass, the career of C. O. Williams, superintendent of the county schools and would-be assassin of Dr. M. F. Johnston's reputation for integrity and efficiency is being investigated, and he himself is on trial before the bar of public opinion today. The events of the last few days ii the school board fight have proved conclusively that Williams has been the ringleader in a campaign that might have disrupted Richmond's splendid public school system. Sly Tales Circulated. All sorts of tales have been slyly put in circulation. Councilmen have called up members of the school board and said, "Is there any truth in the report that there is lack of harmony among your members? That Miss Hill and Dr. Johnston are on one side and Charley Jordan on another?" One ar.d all of the school board members denied the truth of such reports claiming that utmost accord characterized the policy of the board in all school matters. Meantime Williams' activity to start an investigation along unfair and unjust lines about Dr. Johnston has resulted in an investigation being started into his own conduct of office. Not only has Williams claimed that dissention existed between the members of the school board and thus sought to bring about disruption through councilmanic action, but he has also lobbied in other ways. A Successful Lobbyist. For instance in 1911 Williams successfully lobbied at the state legislature to have the help of a clerk in his office and be permitted other expense money. The law permitted the hiring of a clerk for not longer than 120 days each year. Williams retains a clerk all the time. During the session of the last legislature Williams spent a great deal of time away from his duties here as county superintendent of schools, lobbying at Indianapolis. This time Williams wanted a raise in salary and bis term of office extended two years. The Copyright Hart ScbAffner & Mrx
