The ancient but still honorable quiz as to which gentleman is. the mort valuable to a team Walter Johnson, the pitching person, or Tyrus Cobb, who does everything but pitch, is still with us. The answer is simple: Johnson is far more valuable, despite the wonder ful, uncanny, all-round ability of the Georgia Peach. Cobb, marvelous though he is, is but .one ; cog in ; n, machine of nine cogs. His . position as an outfielder forces him to share only a portion of the defensive play. But a pitcher is the main cog the real cog around which air the little cogs revolve. Up on him stands the greatest portion of uub ueiens. in iact, every defensive play of the game depends first upon him and his pitching arm. ? fhP,Itcn2.r is oln& "right" it needs out little offensive work, on the part of his teammates to bring home a vic tory. But if the pitcher foozles, and the opposition begins to batter around his twists "and slants,' the official scor er usually proceeds to chalk a defeat against the ,teamthat bwns the wob bling pitcher. - ' That's; it, in a nutshell. - BLUETHENTHAL TO COACH CAR.

Still those who went shy on this fcig event nave tne consola tion of knowing' that The Grand has other stupendous shows up its wide sleeve. In fact, today's programme will be another event- delightful and rare, in which swell films will combine with the playing of Misg Framan, the brilliant Wurlitzer orchestra virtuoso; to make the programme something ex: tra. nne, ana today the price of ad mission will be back to 5 cents, too. : Today's great snow is headed by Edison's "The Adventures of the Counterfeit Money," being the fifth In the series ot oetavius, the ama teur detective, the most thrilling and fascinating stories- of. daring, bravery and mystery ever? flashed on a screen. There is also a great feature 6n to day! in a Selig'8 special two-reel re lease, "The Forged Parchment?, er the : Adventures of Kathlyn." This is something Grand-goers have been keeping pace with in breathless way, and the management is -constantly be ing asked when the next number will be presented. Today the next number appears and it Is in two big reels. Another swell star film will be offer ed in the Vitagraph's "Dorothy Dan dbridge, Militant." Now here is a real woman suffrage story, with a rap and a swing, and clever, charming Dorothy Kelly appears In the title role. "Lucile Love" at Bijou. "Lucile Love, the Girl of Mystery," stops at the popular photoplay house again today, to depict the 11th install ment of her marvelous and thrilling adventures on the trail of the arch villain who has ruined. her father. To say that this installment, which comes in two parts as usual, is the most thrilling and spectacular of any yet, seems hard to believe, but it actually is the case. For during this install ment, taking the story up where Lu cile escapes from the "Mexican ranch on horseback,- the plucky little girl again gets possession of the papers which would clear her father's name of stain, but in doing so risks her life and again becomes a prisoner, but with the papers in her possession. The manner in which the papers are obtained furnishes some of the most thrilling action ever seen in a motion picture. Miss Grace Cunard, playing the role of Lucile Love, has certainly become an adept at portraying the difficult role, and grows with each week's in stallment. "Our Mutual Girl" will also be there today to charm Bijou patrons with her delightful and' cunning ways.
