Friends of the young star have been iT.xious to see him in the professional game for many months, and were instrumental in convincing Dick Smith and Owner Kin-rella tiiat "Dizz" was worth a trial. In order to give his friends the best opportunity to see him work, it was decided that he should work out in a uniform Saturday and go on the mound for the first time next Sunday. Stars In Many Games.

Wills has been constantly to the fore in amateur and school circles of the city for several years past.

Manager Dick Smith of the Decatur Three-I club last evening released Pitcher Harry Rustenhaven. in order to comply with the agreement reached by the magnates at the Chicago meeting Tuesday, when it was decided that each team must cut Its list down to thirteen men Aside from the man ager by July 15.

next Saturday. Although the salary limit was prac tically discarded, and the teams priv ileged to get the best men possible. It was decided that as a matter of econ omy teams should not carry more than fourteen men including their mana gers. Manager Boyle of the Waterloo club said last evening that he was carrying only four pitchers, and two catchers, making his team total thir teen, aside from himself. Playlne Boil Helps.

The Decatur team Is lucky in that Manager Smith is a player, thus giving the team fourteen players, where such teams as Waterloo. Dubuque or uanviue must get along with thirteen players, as they carry bench managers. From reports at the Chicago meeting, it was learned that Rock Island and Decatur ar6 really the only cities wnose attendance Is not either satis factory now or is not picking up Frank Boyle, manager of Waterloo says that while his city will not draw as many as it did last season on account of the "Better Half league, which played before the regu lar schedule started, it will be up with the average. Davenport and Dan vllle are leading the league, while Dubuque is Just fair. Quincy and Peoria are improving rapidly, and Rock Island fans are beginning to show signs of life again.

This leaves it up to Decatur to show what it can do pretty soon or stand big chances of losing the club to Bloomington, or pringfleld, both of which still cast covetous glances in our direction. Groh Goes Saturday. Shortstop Henry K. Groh who has been sold to the New Y'ork Giants, will leave next Saturday for New York, it was announced last evening by Owner Klnsella. Groh will probably play in another game or more before he leaves and expects to be entirely recovered from his recent slump be fore he starts for McGraw's burg.

Rustenhaven said last evening that he would probably return to his home before going west where he expects to start pitching again. Hollenbeck Today. Hollenbeck will pitch for Waterloo today, and Boyle pins his faith on the big fellow, to make Decatur hustle some. Decatur choice will probably lie between Middleton and Hopper.

The most phenomenal shoe sal that Decatur has ever known, and ons in fact that will set a record th country over will be inaugurated to morrow morning by the Martln-Phareat Shoe Company, at the corner of Main and Water steets by the establishment well known in Decatur by Its slogan "Pay less for your shoes." This enormous sacrifice sale is made necessary by the fact that William H. Martin has Just bought out the interest of other members of the firm, and is compelled to raise at once the sura of $5,000. Per the usual custom this could be readily accomplished by borrowing from local banks, but as this Involves huge debt and Incurs a substantial interest, Mr. Martin has conceived an easier plan of disposing of his stock at such extreme low prices, that they will command immediate sale. 'I am going to sell shoes and oxfords at such extremely low prices that the whole town will be surging to our store." said Mr.

Martin yesterday, "we are going to live up to the honor and prestige of our house by giving the public just what we advertise, but you can bet that lust the minute that we raise $5,000 we will begin to sell at regular prices again." There will be absolutely no reserve In the stock. The leading well known lines of shoes such as the "Barry," for men, "Tailor Maid" for women, and "Buster Brown" for child ren are included In this sacrifice. To convey an idea to the reader of the immense money-saving opportunity this sale will afford the follow ing few reductions are cited: over 300 pairs of Ladies" Oxfords which sell regularly for $3. $3.50 and $4 will be disposed of at the ridiculous price of $1 per pair, and shoes that regularly sell for $5 a pair at $3.50. It may be added, also, that these shoes are from the regular stock of the Martin-Phares Shoe Company, and not seconds or shoddy shoes bought especially for the purpose of this sale.

Mr. Martin will personally guarantee satisfaction or money back without a word. tomac are the guests of his brother, Charles Kissack and wife. Mr. and Mrs.

Sanders, who has been expending many efforts in boost ing the professional game, and now wishes to gather together a fast aggregation in the Commercial league. It is possible that the Mueller team will be an applicant lor the place it has lust vacated, but a majority of the other managers will have to decide between that team and the Sanders aggregation, as though it were new team.

In the event that a new team is admitted, those of the Mueller players who wish to join it. will be probably given the privilege of doing so Secretary W. H. Duerr. who is managing the league stated last even ing.

that the other teams in the league would not be allowed to annex any of the Mueller players. Application was made for the entire team by the Reviews, but as such action is obvi onslv directilv in opposition to the policy of keeping all teams intact with the exception of those which are down and out. the application is not being seriously considered. Game is Forfeited. Rerrptarv Duerr also stated that if the Mueller team were reinstated in the league, it would probably be on the condition that the Bankers be given the forfeited game of Tuesday when the- Muellers failed to appear.

following the decision of the arbitra tion committee. If a new team should succeed to the Mueller standing, it is likely that they will not be made to nav the penalty for their preaeces sors. but will be allowed to play the game over, together with the five other nostnoned games which the Muellers had not played. A rule will be laid before the meeting in accordance with the recommendation of the arbitration committee, iciin e-that all teams restrict their enrollment to the players now with them, and not attempt to secure play-r from other teams. Any who are not connected with other teams may of course be claimed.
