On thin hppend durlnft th week that Will mk th Baa Johnion p)rata lit up ana tali notice. Th Taclfl oosl m. nam had n trouoi in convlnclhg thm mv ii ia to their Intereit to Join th Class A combination lor mutual pro lection. If th Southern will now come in Hi defenslv alliance will be perfect, so far M number 0. In th meantime th pre .genu ror Ban Johnson ar shcddtna- bar rel of Ink over tons of paper to confine the men who have their money Invested In ClaM A ball that tnr would bettr take whit Mr. Johnson offers them. It Is not to be denied that Mr. Johnson lias th means of carrying on a most extensive and treeslva csmpalan. lie has th mon.v and he has th unquestioning support of number or th most Influential base ball writer In the country. Thes men ar busy in and out of season, convincing- their readers that Johnson can do no wrong and that Whatever emanate from him Is Cor rect. Just now the whole bunch, Including nm Murnane., is busy bombarfllng Teoeau, Griffith and Stalling as disturbers and wreckers, and holding up Fat Powers as th Moses who can save the minors. Not a word on th aide of th minors IS said by any of these. They have carried tholr campaign to th Class B and lower classes and ar carrying them against th Class A leagues, assuring the Utile fellows that th continuation of th National Assocla tlon of Minor Base Ball league depends on complete subserviency to Ban Johnson Only they do not. put It thus plainly. Thy argue, a did M. II. Sexton In a recent let ter In the Bportinr News, that th Johnson proposition i most liberal to the minor league, and ought to be accepted without Question. lhb stop a minute to see where th gentlemen ar at. Last week The Be re ferred to th rise of Ban Johnson In the base ball world, which he now bestrldo os a cbllOssu. It waa not by respecting contract or reservations that Mr. Johnspn attained Ms eminence, but by absolute dis regard of every condition of organised ball he now bo vehemently protests he Is the chief defender of. It tat made popular by calling It a revolt against th tyranny of tho National league. To overthrow th monopoly let up by Bruan and his asso 'late was the object to be attained, ami In doing this Johnson had the support and Sympathy of the base ball world, even though It wa admitted that his methods were hot the sort that on Would like to adopt In hie own private business. Now that h has attained a reasonably firm seat at the apex of the pyramid, Mr. Johnson aeekfc to establish Just alien k condition as he tided in overturning. II has the sup port of Pat Fowera in all h does, and ha had from the start; That I why tho Claas A magnates are Opposed to Power as president of the National association. Tim Murnane la In olOs touch With Owner Tylor of th , Boston American, and a turn la In sympathy with everything John son does. Jo Vila doesn't like Andy Freed man, owner Of the New York Giants, any better than any of tho rest of us. and so hi sympathies are all With the Highland er and whatever Johnson does Is all right with him "Mike 6xt0n lost out with th Western leagu and with-th National as sociation, and thu relegated to the Class B organization, he can see little or no good lit anything that is Intended for Clam A people. Each f the list Of critic now n-' gaged In th Warfare on Class A Is open to som such charg these. What 1 th difference that is making th trouble? At th Isst meeting of th Na tional association a resolution was passed asking for a Change In th drafting agree ment, tt In proposed that th malorw have th right to draft but one man from each C1i A team, and pay for him 11,(00. Thill waa accepted by tho National league, but waa' rejected by Ban Johnson, who mad a counter proposition to th effect tht th major hsv the right to drift two play. era. th maximum to be tl.onn for th CTa A learn, and irallng on down for th lower grades. Here the matter sticks. At present th majors have the right to drft two Player from each team, and are required to pay a maximum of IT50 to the Clasa A and running down to $2"0 for the ClaM D league, t'nder the operation of th draft t present It Is possible for the major to riddle each league of the minors, drafting All th star at the does bf each season, fcnd making It necessary for the minor managers to hustle ever spring for nw material. Johnson admits that the price proposed dO not amount to much, that ll.SflO Isn't too much to pay for a good player, but h Insist on having the first cholc of two plpyera from each team. Moreover, he has stipulated a raise In price for th minors below Class A, 9 that the league of that grsde must pay the same money for third choice that th big leagues pay for first and second choir. How does thst stria you ft a proposition In Justice and equity T Th big league cornea along and strips th Clas A team Of Its stars, and then When the C?lss A manager goes to a B or C or D team to get material to replace that taken from him by the draft h finds the big leagu has been there first and that he can have his pick of what Is left for th asm figure th big man paid for first cholc. That I all, except that It abso lutely obviates, any hustling among the magnate of the big league for th control of th stars of the game. If the gam was played fairly, at that, it would be leas objectionable. But take soma experiences of President Rourk of th Omaha team a an illustration: St. Louis drew Sander from IJttle Rock for $500; Rourk paid St. Loula $750 for him, after It was fully determined that he would not do for th big league. Hi price was raised. Nlll was drafted by Cleveland from Colo rado Springs for $750. Rourk has tried to buy him back for Omaha, as he I for aale. Johnson admits that Nlll is not to be used tn th American this season, but he wants $1,(00 for him. Just double th draft price. And he will very likely get it. If Rourk doesn't pay it som other Class A man ager will. During the recent conference at Chicago some of the Clasa A magnates had a chat with Charles A, Comlskey, who has been one of Johnson's ablest lieutenants. Comlskey admitted th Justice of the Class A position, but added with a smile, "You'll get Just what you are strong enough to de mand, and no more." Th Clasa A magnates are not looking for wsr; they don't want any more trouble. Two of th leagues are now battle-scarred nd Weary, the Western and tha American association, and want permanent peace. But they do not feel like being dragged through th avenue of Bnseballdom at tha tall of Ban Johnson's chariot, Just to maka hi holiday the more popular. They realize his strength, artd alo his determination to use it, but he mistakes the temper of th men who are now preparing to resist him If he thinks they will submit to be reduced to the condition that existed nrlnr in the fnr. motion of the National association. And it Will be well for tho men who are Interested In the littler leagues to look thoroughly into tije conditions before committing them selves. Prospects for a high Class tennis team at Princeton this season are considered excel lent. Four experioncodr player who retire eentea the University in the Intercollcgiat maicnea mat ran Will be eligible to Dla this season and should be of great assist anre in turning out a strong team. Dual matches probably will be played with Yale, Harvard and Columbia, although complot arrangements have not aa yet been made, Th following players are tho members of th team: H. J. Rendali: E. E. Run teln, L. K. Richardson and M. C. Thorn Oh. H. J. Randall la a strong player and has represented the university for several years. E. E.

It waa announced during the week that two garages ar to be erected during the next month on Famam street, between Twen tleth and Twenty-first, both to be modeled after eastern buildings of this kind. Evidently th automoblllsts of New Jr ey scored a point by united action In fle feattng the Bcovel amendments to tha Boovel bill, which measure Is described as being drastic and pernicious. The Scovel amendment limit th speed of automobiles to twenty miles an hour; require a license Of $3, Instead of $1; provide that only the New Jersey number of th licensed owner be displayed on both th front and rear of th car, and permit arrest at sight and without a warrant.

Baldwin and Miller will meet on this occasion for the first tlm In forty years. An old-time rivalry exists between the twain. They will box with eight-pound groves.

On th grounds thaVThe New York bowl er threaten to wield a top-heavy Influence In the affairs of the American Bowling congress, the Pacific coast bowlers have pulled themselves together and given It out that if present plans carry they will not henceforth play in the back yard of th American Bowling congress. To this end a meeting of representative bowlers of Butte, Ogden. Salt Lake City, San Fran cisco, Spokane, Portland, Los Angele and other western cities will meet soon to se cede from the parent body and form a a Pacific coast league. The contention ll raised by tha Pacific coaster that th New Yorkers will soon be able to control the entire affairs of th national association. When you come to think of It, it la a far cry from Yonkers to 'Frisco, even In the bowling world, and that the knights or the alley on tha west Chore should want to have a league' of their own doe hot Oc casion much surprise. The Omaha Bowling league Is on th last leg of Its present season schedule, with a close race for first honor now being run. Th Omaha team has held the first of th column nearly the entire bowling season. A week ago th Standing of th first foUr I teams was: Omahas, 727; Drexels, 6S2; Onl- moda, 667; V. 8. Yards, tj3S. The games of I the last week changed this standing to: Omahas, 710; Onlmods, 67; Drexels, 852; V. 8. Yards, 662. This makes a pretty race for second honors. There are five more week I for the completion of the team schedule, after which th Omaha Bowling association will give a two-men team handicap tourna ment, covering a period of from ten to twelve weeks, according to th number of entries. Manager Marble thinks nearly fifty teams will enter the tournament. This tournament will be held five evening each week, two games being played each evening. Numerous rash and merchandise prises Will ba offered and a board of handlcappers will determine the handicaps to be allowed. Mr. Marble of the association alleys say much Interest has already been manifested In the tournament and he looks for it to be a fit ting close of th regular bowling season. Dad" Huntington again broke Into the limelight of the bowling stage last Thurs day evening, when he rolled 693 pins lit three game played with the Omaha team against the 8tora Blue Ribbons, This make Dad high man for the month so far as played on the association's alleys. Dad's friends say he Is rolling stronger the older he gets. In 199 games rolled In this season's schedule Mr. Huntington has made an aver age of a little belter than 198M a game. At present he In third in the Individual stand ing list, but If he keeps up his recent pace it may be hard to distinguish him from the dust during th closing weeks of th schedule. 1t the present plans of the London.

Th record price to b paid for an Ameri can mad motor car la said to be $U,ono, paid by Carl Hotter of Columbus, O.. for a Pop-Toldo car with an engine of fifty hors power and speed of mor than sixty miles an hour. Manager Harry Sage of th gtors Brewing compny base ball team has called a meet ing of the members if the team for next Wednesday evening, when the formation Of th elub will be perfected. Both th gtors company and Mr. Sage say th team will be on of th strongest amateur teams In Omaha this season. Th uniforms, to b ordered this weak, will b black, with whit trimmings and coat to match.

Blood poverty The Greatest of All Afflictions, Breaks Down the Health and Invites Disease Blood poverty, or Anaemia, is due to ft lack of health-giving properties ia iht blood. Instead of being rich, strong and pure, it has become infected with some poison or germ which has destroyed the rich, red corpuscles that furnish nutriment and strength to the body, and is reduced to such a weak, watery state that it is no longer able to keep the system in health or ward off the countless diseases that daily assail it. Every part of the body is dependent on the blood for nourishment and strength, and when this vital stream of life becomes impoverished and run-down, the effect is quickly shown. Ihe destroying or the red corpus cles takes the color and glow of health from the cheek, and we see pale, sallow faces, chalky, washed-out complexions, diseased bodies, weak constitutions and a general, broken-down condition of the health.

Blood poverty is often an inheritance, parents transmitting it to their children, and those so afflicted live a life of suffering and disease. They do not possess the nat ural energies that belong to their more for tunate companions who are blessed with a healthy, strong blood supply; they have weak bodies, soft, flabby muscles, brittle bones, often weak eyes and scrofulous affec tions of various kinds. They are also more susceptible to Catarrji, Rheumatism and other blood troubles, because their blood does not possess the strength and vigor necessary to purge the system of the poisons and impurities which produce these diseases. Long continued sickness is another cause of blood poverty. The blood becomes infected with the germs of disease, and when the body begins its work of recuperation and building back to health, the blood, because of its impoverished condition, is unable to furnish the sys tem with the nourishment and strength necessary, and Old Sores or Ulcers, Skin diseases or some other blood disorder follows. Persons whose blood is poor and weak will find that if the trouble is not corrected there will be some serious blood disease later in life. When the system is suffering from blood poverty it is in a very weakened condition and should be treated with a remedy that is not only thorough, but very gentle in its action. This is one of the qualities possessed by S. S. S.; it is made entirely from roots, herbs and barks, and contains no strong minerals or harmful drugs to further derange or damage the health. It is the greatest of all , blood" medicines. S. S. S. not only purifies the blood of any and all poisons and germs, but gives it tone and vigor to supply the entire system with strength and nourishment. It carries to the blood the health-giving aualities it needs, and by its use it is made rich, pure and strong, and all evidences of blooa poverty pass away. .every jost property is restored and neaitn is hrniiy es tablished. The full, round face, glowing with healthy color, returns, the constitution is strengthened and the entire body reinvigorated by this great vegetable medi cine. S. S. S. cures all diseases arising from a poisoned as well as an t impoverished blood, and cures them per manently. It is the remedy approved by the best people an over tne country tor the past tortv vears. and noth ing equals it in the treatment of blood poverty.
