The comedy furnished by two German comedians and one Hebrew comedian at the Bijou theater this week in the tabloid offering, "The Merry whirlers." is of the contagious variety.

GREENVILLE'S EXHIBIT AT CONSERVATION EXPO City Will Make One of Largest Displays Next Fall. Among the many large exhibite of southern manufactured goods that will be seen in the new All-South building at the coming National Conservation exposition that to be made by the progressive manufacturers of the progressive and hustling city of Greeneville, S.

will stand out conspicuously. The Greenville exhibit will be one of the largest exhibits to be made by any southern city. Greenville business men and manufacturers have not been slow to realize the benefits that must come to them by a display at Knoxville. When the proposition of making an exhibit here was put up to them by J. L.

Bowles, commissioner of induetrial and commercial exhibits, they seized upon It at once. "The management of the National Conservation exposition," said W. M. Goodman, director general of the position, yesterday, "feels much gratiq fled at learning that Greenville is comIng to Knoxville in force. There is much in common between the cities of Knoxville and Greenville.

The people of Knoxville are deeply interested In the growth and development of Greenville. The good prospects of better railroad connections between the cities is one thing that links Green-Mlle close to Knoxville. "Greenville manufacturers are doing much to make that city one of the best advertised of southern cities. The success of the recent 'Made-in-Green. yule' exposition in that city was due almost wholly to the enterprise and push of the mahufacturers of green.

yule. The exposition from all reports was a big success and did much for the city. The showing made by the manufacturers of different lines of products was exceptionally IMP from all I have learned and the exposition reflects great credit on the city. We are glad to have Greenville represented at our exposition and hope that the enterprise shown by the business men there will stimulate manufactur4 era in a few other cities who have not awakened to a realization of what the National Conservation exposition will mean to the south.

Tribune. "Some kickers have been kicking at the players. and other kickers have been kicking at the kickers. It is a grievous mistake to roast a baseball player tom the grandstand or bleachers. Be regrets his errors much more than the spectator possibly can.

Roasts dishearten a player and tend to keep him from playing him best." This Rome scribe no doubt has the right idea about the matter. But as long as there is baseball the grandstand and bleachers are going to have something to say about it. If the player makes an error or pulls a "bone," or loafs on the paths, do not expect the spectators to remain silent. Somebody is going to say something. and the sooner the player learns to "can" all such talk from the grandstand: the sooner he makes up his mind to hear but not to remember" the better ball player he will be.

Trot out to Mr. Sommer's large piece of real estate in Chicago today and you'll see him. His name is Russell, and he southpaws as the old "Rube" was wont to do in his halcyon days in 1905. It's getting to be rather monotonous, this expression "the Tanks get it again!" meaning that Frank Chance and his Highlanders have once more suffered defeat.

Miller et al. filed a bill in chancery yesterday against the Southern Ice company and the Atlantic Coal Ice company, seeking to oust them out of the state and enjoining them from doing business in Tennessee. The bill charges that the two defendant companies are ostensibly carrying on a war in the price of ice with each other, while in fact they have entered into a pool in order to drive out all smaller competition and that when this result is accomplished they will mine the price of ice and have the people at their mercy. The bill charges violation of the anti-trust laws. It is allegeil that in order to meet its purpose the companies cut the price of ice to 10 and 15 cents per 101) pounds.

It is alleged that this is below the cost of production and hence the smeller concerns cannot compete at such prices without ruin to themselves. NOTICE! We have a few good Gas Ranges slightly used which we will sell cheap. BAIRD. GATES lu 10 1 40 But not always. Along this same line the Rome 'cribs says further: "I have known two or three promising ball players to be ruined right here in Rome by roasts from the stands." While there are no records of players being ruined in Knoxville because they received a severe "calling down" from the stands, yet there have been times at Chilhowee park when some poor, nervous "Jinx" player has received the "call" in no uncertain terms.

If he was not "ruined" it was not the fault of the grandstand and bleachers. A baseball fan, as a rule, has his own notion about how a game should be played, and the sooner the player learns of this peculiarity the more likely, is he to make good with his club. For in that case he will follow his manager's instructions instead of advice and admonishings from the grandstand and bleachers. APPALAMIAN PRESIDENT HANDS IN RESIGNATION Cleveland Club Tenders' Its Franchise to League. Judge Manring in Saddle.

Special to The Koos-vine Statinel CLEVELAND, June 4.When the directors of the APpalachlan league met here Tuesday night President Walter E. Rodgers, of Cleveland. tendered the Cleveland franchise to the league. Following immediately upon this action President Jacob Smith, of the league, resigned, turning the reins of government over to Vice-President J. L.

Man-ring, of Middlesboro. The Cleveland franchise wee not tendered to the league, It is claimed because of financial troubles. loss of games or lack of attendance, but because officials of the club thought the league had gone on the rocks with the withdrawal of Bristol. However, it Is asserted here that if the league is re-organized Cleveland will more than likely be ready to re-enter the race. The scheduled game between Cleveland and Rome will be played here Wednesday.

There is little question but that Cleveland has one of the best teams in the league and the fans here are very much disappointed that the club has tendered Its franchise. No business was transacted at the directors' meeting here in that there was no quorum. Middlesboro, Cleveland and Rome were the only towns represented, Knoxville, Bristol and Johnson not having any representatives on the ground. In discuesing his resignation, President Smith said: "I'm through. I wouldn't accept the responsibility of bat boy In the league again.

However, if the league continues in operation I will lend any assistance possible. I shall still attend the games and root as loud as ever." Local fans regret that President Smith has resigned. tinder his administration in 1912 the league played some of the fastest ball ever seen in a class circuit. It is firmly believed here that If the Bristol "squabble" had not bobbed up President smith would have had another successful season.

When all clubs are represented I am confident that all our differences can be straightened out satisfactorily. L. MANRING, "President Middlesboro Club." In discussing President Smith's action the Middlesboro president said: "I regret very much that President Smith has signed.

Smith, yet I have always regarded him as one of the finest men I have ever met Be runs the league aecordrng to the laws of the game, and for that one reason alone I admire him. I hope he will consider. that Cleveland will be re-instated and that the present pennant race will be fought out without any more trouble. I believe that if all the clubs will get together in a meeting within the next few days all differences now existing can be adjusted satisfactorilY."
