JUDGMENTS HHN fca tail player 5ollbr- Wately fall to flo tha be-t work ha It capable of. h Is not only defrauding his employer, but ths public as well, and Is doing tha am a double Injury. The success of pro fessional base tall ha bmn due to the abiding confidence of the public In the In tecrlty of the players. It Is epcted that each man on the team will do his best at all slates of the game, and that each ex hibition will be marked by as nearly per fect play aa the team are capable of. If a player or a team doe not measure up to thl high standard, the game suffers. When the public fln1s out that the men are "cheating," It stay away from the game, receipt fall on, and salaries must suffer. Thus the dishonest player not only affect his own standing, but that of all ottrfirs engaged In the game. This 1 the unfortunate case of the Blout City team In the Western league Just at present. For some reason not easily apparent, the men of that organisation are not playing the ball they are capable of. The team Is made up of good players, men who are qualified to put up a much better article of ball than they are furnishing, but through Indifference or discontent, they are doing work that at times would disgrace an amateur team. Captain Sheehan does not aeem to have control of the men on the flold, and Manager Hart la apparently unablo to get them to extend themselves. . That they can play ball wu shown In Omaha last Sunday. Tha first game of the double header was a listless affair, due to the looee playing of the Sioux, who gave no evidence of Interest at any time. In the second game, for some reason a ob scure a that governing the first, they turned In and played snappy ball, with the result that the crowd witnessed one of the fastest exhibitions of the sport ever held In Omaha. The contrast between the two games wa so noticeable a to cause gen tral comment. Something ought to be done for Sioux City, for, the present attitude of the player 1 not helping the game any. College coaches feel well content with the showing made by the new material In re cent Interscholastlo trial and look forward to another season of good games. The one noticeable feature 1 that the selection are made with little or no taint of scandal, the reform In thl direction apparently be ing genuine. College athletic had slumped to a very low slag from the ethical view point, but the drastic step of a couple of season ago did much to place the sport on a purely amateur bast. Great rivalry still exists, and the demand for the husky and nimble youngster 1 still active, but la hot attended by the demoralising "commer. clallsm" that marked the course of oollege athletics, especially In the west, a few years ago. Faculty efforts are stilt bent In the direction of securing sport In which all students may take part, and thl Is having a good effect. It I not o much a matter now of producing winning team aa of making well developed men from the boys. Hall spoiled on of the prettiest play of the season last Sunday when he prevented Graham from stealing home. Graham had already stolen second and third, and all but made tha record complete. He wa winging down the line In perfect form on one of Jarrott' slow ones, and from the bench Captain Buck called for trail to lot It go and make the run sure. With that fatalty- that mark some player,. Hall swung at tha ball and Just touched K. sending It foul and causing Graham to re turn to third. At least M per cent of the 8,000 bugs who were out there wanted to murder Hall for spoiling the steal. It would have won the game. The race In tha Western league Is the most Interesting yet noted for thl organ Uatlon. Five year ago, with an eight club organisation, four teams were so close at the finish that they might be covered with on blanket, but this season, with vslx clubs, not one of them Is entirely out of the running. On Saturday morning- only forty-two point stood between Lincoln, In fourth plaoe, and Omaha, In first; while pueblo, at the tall end, was but a little more than 200 point behind and playing better ball every day. It 1 anybody's fight yet and promise to be a mighty Inter esting contest before the end Is reached. The Grand American handicap at Chi cago failed to produce any sensation. As usual, the professionals found themselves set back so far that they were practically DacK eo r umi 11107 " n;ini. . out of It from the start, while the unknown amateur had a distinct advantage In tha matter of handicap. The attendance wa not up to expectation, and the Quality of sport wa but Ordinary. Trap shooting I still a splendid and popular (port, but the amateur find he Can get a much eetlsfactoln out of the home tournament a la afforded by tha big gathering, and at considerable lee expense. It begin to look a If Wright and Behr will have te go alone In the American ef fort to bring the Davis cap home from England. Neither Clothier nor Darned I going across. One of the Dohertys will be out, and maybe both, which will weaken England very materially, but even this will make the task for the Americana a stupend ous undertaking, and if they succeed. It will be all the more glory for them. Des Moines got little sympathy when a game waa lost because one Of the team was caught trying to pull off a cheap trtck to block a runner. The Champions can play good, clean ball, but several members Of the team seem to prefer dirt. They are pot getting away with It this year a they lid under the weak umpires last season. With the reopening of the Toung Men' Christian association gymnasium amateur athletics In Omaha ought to receive a for ward push. The local taste for sport has not died out, but the boys have lacked . for a center on which to rally. A revival tf the association teams, with the pan- Uthlon contest, will be a big help. . Philadelphia has been sloshing around among the National league clubs aa If It wsro determined to have third If not second plaoe. The Quaker have carried on during their recent trip In a way that la really scandalous. Del Howard haa finally landed with a top notch team, and no one out here doubt that he will atlck there. Murphy traded Randall and Sweeney for him. thereby giv ing the Boston team quite a lift.

BUYING ACCESSORIES GOOD POINT t'roea-CooBtry Toarlafa Are C'omlna; Threaah on l.on Janata la Larger Kambere Than Ever. One Omaha dealer Is now advertising Ms YP marhlnee and selling them, ire has contracted with one of tho leading manu factories for forty-four hlrh grade ma chines to be delivered early next spring and people who know what thry want can get In their orders early and thus Insure an early delivery. The demand for automobiles this spring was, of course, unprecedented and nearly all the high grade machines were sold. Some dealers still have some of their cheaper t srs on their hands and these are moving off at an encouraging rate. As one dealer said last week: "The sun shines and everyone in the store has his hands full and then It begins to rain and there 1 no use talking automobiles." Some of the dealers who have no ma chines to sell are devoting all their, ener gies to their supply department. "If we could got for delivery one-half the supplies we can sell we would make all the money wo want," said ono dealer who does a large supply business all over the west. "It Is no trouble to sell accessories, bat It Is hard to get them." (roan. Country Tourists, The time of the tourists has come and not onry are Omaha people planning ex tensive trips, but tho cross-country chasers from other cities are going through In a continuous stream. Last week half a dozen different machines passed through Omaha which were being driven, In most cares, half the length of the continent. Mr. Rosa of Pontlac, 111., drove Into the Powell garage Wednesday after a strenu ous, but pleasant trip through the rnln and mud In Iowa. He had four casings re covered In ono day and resumed his Journey to Denver at S o'clock Ftlday morning. t. W. Work and C. J. Maxson, members of the Cleveland Automobile club, are taking a pleasure trip across the continent from New York June 8. Tbey will go direct to San Francisco, south to Loa Angeles and back -across the southern states to the Jamestown exposition and then return to Cloveland. They are In an Oldsmoblle Flying Roadster. llnatnraa la Enormon. R. A. Adler, traveling salesman of the Powell Automobile company, returned to Omaha Wednesday and reports an enor mous business on supplies, limited only by the output of the factories. He aya the Omaha dealer made a great hit with all automobile users and dealers In tho state when they put In a large stock of accessories, as It saves so much time over the old plan of dealing with Chicago or New York and costs less. Joseph Bates of the Pope Motor company has been In Omaha during the week. A new Franklin was delivered to E. A. Cope of the Updike Grain company last week. A large number of automobile have been put Into tho rental business because Of the recent decision of the city council to make a reasonably low license fee for automobile rental cars. The old rate was practically prohibitive, but the new license permit rental cara to stand In front of hotels the same as carriages and several have been put at that service. DAMNG AUTOMOBILE DRIVING torn Stunts that Are Dally Performed at Cleveland. The street adjacent to one of the large automobile factories at Cleveland have be come one of the show place of the city. Many peopla visit the scene dally to wit ness the driving of the teat men, who put the new cars through most astounding test before they are shipped 'away to the automobile public Among the stunts that are dally witnesses by crowds of people Is. that of the car starting In several Inches of sand upon the lake shore and climbing up the high bluff on 4 rough road that Is practically Impassable for horse-drawn vehicle. Robert Jardlne, the designer of the Royal Turlst .frequently superintends these tests, and he stated yesterday that this hill was about aa steep aa any vehicle can traverse. It ha been especially prepared by the Royal Motor Car company for strenuous test of their output. It Is the Intention of thl company not to ship any car that has not been through a violent tryout, and they employ the most daring drivers that can be secured to handle the cars at high speed over the roughest places which an automo- 1 ... . , . t Due can neffotiAta in .hArt , v AiM . 1 M - - " "V -"' ""' l" " 17a, 1 P0M attempt WONDERFUL WAY FOR SPEEDERS Raw Ena-Hah Track that Rzeeeds Any. thing In the World. DONDON, June 22,-Down In the heart of Surrey, In the beautiful Weybridge dis trict, there circles a great white line 100 feet wide and three miles Ion whlh within the next two months 1 Intended to beooirie the most remarkable racecourse the world has even seen. The motor-racing track now under construction at Brookland. Weybridge, Is the first of its kind to come into existence, and It Is expected by the promoters to make motor racing aa popular a spectacle as horse racing. The best of cycling and running tracks, the most famous athletic grounds, the most Imposing of racecourses sink Into comparative Insignificance by the aide of thl great mooth, artificial road. In the history of modern apeed It will tand unique. Ten car at a time will be able to weep round the three-mile concrete track at a pace probably double that of express train. On the paclous Island In the center of the track tena of thousands of spectators will be able to witness these terrific races. Hitherto motor racing has principally taken place on roads, specially selected perhapa and specially protected, but never the leaa. In spite of precautions, a danger trap for all concerned. The sharp turn In the road, the declivities, the clouda of dust have been perils Inseparable from the roads. Now the racing motorist la to have a place where he may "let himself ro," certain of safety provided hi motor Is not Imperfect and that he Is a skilled man. An army of workmen haa been en gaged In making this track. Trees have been fUed. excavations made, hills built up, and a river turned from Its course. It Is nearly completed now, and after a formal opening at the end of June It la Intended to hold the first race meeting on Saturday, July 6. The new track is in the snap of an Ir regular oval, and from start to finish measures three and one-quarter mlle. The course Is of concrete, and is 100 feet wide. Tunnels under the course and bridge over It will give access to the spectators, no one being allowed In any circumstances to walk over the track. In view of the great speeda to be attained, extraordinary measures of precaution will be taken to ensure the safety of visitors. They will be separated from the Inside edge of the track by two subatantial fences. Between these fences policemen will jatrol. The race 1U be conducted on similar lines to horse races, many of the events being plates, handicap or sweepstakes. There will, however, bo' many special con tents, such, for Instance, as those for car which have competed In the lending rond races. At the first meeting, on July ft, HI.000 will be offered In prises. There will be four more mwttniw ffcen then to August 17. It la believed that the motor races at Brooklands will become very popular. Five shillings will admit to the covered stands, but the vIMtore will pay two shillings and sixpence, although they have no cover will, In the words of one of the organisers, "be able to see every thing." The track will be utilized before the Initial meeting by 8. FV Edge, who will attempt to lower all worlds records for twenty-four hours. He will be followed by Charles Jarrott, who will try to beat him. t"p to the present 117 miles an hour Is the highest speed attained by a motor car, and that, of course, was exceptional. A speed of 13) miles an hour Is expected to become a commonplace on the Brooklands course. Hard Contest Ahead.

DEPARTURE FROM ANCIENT WAYS Qoaltatngr Round to Precede the Ara Atenr Championship Next En llsh Women Snub Royal and ancient Commltte. They usually beat us playing golf, aa the fate of Byers revealed at the amateur championship, but the Britisher are taking up one hf one the methods of America In conducting tournaments. Only tha sixty who qualified In a preceding thlrty-slx hole round could start In the recent open cham pionship at Hoylake, the Innovation being based on American Ideas, and now the five club that rule the game and the ama teur championship abroad have taken steps to weed out the starter In that com petition. The delegates were Instructed at St. Andrew to get the opinion of their club on two suggestion. One Is to limit the amateur champlonshrp to scratch players, the other to have a qualifying medal play round. The delegates will come to the next annual meeting, whloh will be at Sandwich during the amateur championship, pre pared to vote on the two .propositions. The action they! take will Influence the amateur championship of 1909, for they do cot rush things over there. Weedlnar Oat is Needed. There were 206 entries at Bt. Andrews and there will be as many at Sandwich next May, so that the necessity of a weeding out la apparent. To permit only the scratch players of clubs to enter will hardly be feasible, for the bane ot championships Is the puffed up scratch player from small and easy link who would get six or eight strokes at a good course. The qualifying round disposes a of these misguided candi dates and leaves In a quota of golfers com petent to wage a good fight for the title. To adopt a qualifying round will take the wind from the sails of certain leader In American golf legislation who have fought the preliminary score play a bed and per nicious. In they prevailed and our ama tur championship of that year wa at match play alone, and a dreary tournament It was for tho first two oaya. The many changes In our method for hardly a year has passed without some different plan be ing tried has been due to the effort of these match play enthusiasts to kill off the qualifying round. 8. Y. HVebner of Phila delphia haa done more than any other com mitteeman to have the qualifying round re tained. He has supported It through thick and thin for ten year a the most practical way of weeding out a cumbersome number of entrants. The argument that "they ar range matters better abroad" will be lost to the American malcontents should the Britishers take up a qualifying round. Dyers and Championship, If Ebcn M. Byers I to defend hi title In the amateur championship next month at Cleveland It Is time he wa on the scene. It will be held during the week of July I at the Euclid club links. A wet spring has hindered work on the greens, yet the course will be found a worthy champion ship test, and a In going to Cleveland the worthy 'policy of seeking "fresh fields and pastures new" ha been carried out no one will kick over any Imperfections found at Euclid.

It Is a favorite with both Myers and F. Oden Horstman, and should they be In the country they wtll probably limber up by attending It. There will also be an open tournament this week at the Nashville (Tenn). Golf and Country club, while three Individual local championships will be In progress respec tively at Bt. Louis and Philadelphia for amateurs and the open championship of the Western Golf association at Hinsdale, 111. Aleck Smith now holds the latter title. The Identity of the J.

It Is an Itinerant body, holding its matches at In tervals on any of the courses about that city. Regarding the championship match, Paterson began poorly, by getting Into the burs and lost. At the turn Byers was one up, but Paterson squared matters at the tenth and by gaining the heather and the hole a' cross he took the lead. To the corner of the dyke Byers made a poor approach and left lilmatlt too much And don't forget that ' The Family " will appreciate such a treat as " LUXUS," too.

Byers had played very well going out, but he failed In putting on the homeward Journey. Women and St, Andrews. Sunday golf Is absolutely tabooed at St. Andrew, and Indeed quite generally throughout Scotland. Imagine, then, the consternation of the policeman who saw two women playing a match there on a recent Sabbath day. They wore very modish golf suits, carried their own club and hit off the ball with dash and precision. There wa nothing to do but to arrest the daring Invader, but on the plea that they Were strangers the bobby did not jail them. It appears that they were a couple of the committee appointed by the Lady' Golf union to Inspect St. Andrew and report If the course was suitable for their cham pionship next year! Four years ago the Royal and Ancient Golf Club of flt. Andrew refused very bluntly to let the women have the link for their championship. When the news leaked out there waa a hubbub among the golfing femininity of Great Britain, which did not worry the St. Andrew bigots at all, but there wa a fine row at home to tlr them up. It wa a protest from the town' tradesmen and .hotel keeper that the turning away of the women had coat them a pretty penny, besides spreading abroad the Impression that St. Andrews lacked modern enterprise. Now, while quite sifpremo In the game, the Royal and Ancient may by no means hold up the worthy Bt Andrew aldermen by the throat. The link la a common privilege. Consequently when some of the women Intimated that they would like their 1908 championship at St. Andrews the Royal and Ancient sent to them an olive branch In the way of a most cordial Invita tion. But the women are first going to ln spect the course before they accept It use. Mere man may boast ot St. Andrew and It perfection, but the women are not go ing to buy a pig In a pake. Tet there ha been a short course for women at St. Andrew since 1SSS, and be fore that they used the few holes made by tire caddie at the back of Pllmour'a links, It la only a putting course and the golf haa been second In Interest to an annual ball held In the clubhouse of the Royal and Ancient. On this account fit. Andrew has never had a woman golf champion, and shpuld the championship be held there It may start a revolution against the monopo lisation of all the true golfing country there by the men. The Lady' Golf Union ha battled with and overcome this prejudice In many part of Great Britain, and St. Andrew Is not the only citadel of selfish ness to be captured. The Lady's Golf Union I far more enterprising than the fine club that govern the men' champion ship, for they hold meetings alternately in England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales, In stead of only playing on the same course year after year. To Ma eh Hasard. Player recently at the Huntingdon Val ley Country club have found the arrange ment of holes and baaards much easier than they were. The story In It reveal that excess of leal In arranging for pun ishlng golf may make one dlsllksd. W. P. Smith, on of Philadelphia's best ama teurs, was the boss of the greens commit tee and he made the course so difficult that no on could play It but himself, Things came to such a pas that the mem bers went on strike for at least ten yard of fairway without a hasard. To save the club from breaking up they deposed Smith and changed the holes about to make the golfing more simple. Smith has with drawn In high dudgeon and now golfs at the Philadelphia Cricket club. Speaking of Philadelphia. A. W. Tllllng hast Is making headway with hla plans for a team to play In Canada thl summer. "Last year I accepted the Invitation of George Lyon and went to participate In the Toronto tournament. Frits Martin put me out by one hole In the final, but when I came away I carried with m no regrets," says Tllllnghast In reporting progress. "The golf there Is good and the course well planned, but above all the Canadians are the keenest and best of sportsmen and bests. Mr. Austin, president of the Lambton County club and a prominent member of the Canadian Golf Association's commit tee, had a talk with me and suggested that I get together a team in the state to play In Canada this yesr. This I have succeeded in doing and now Messrs. Lyon and Austin announced the following sched ule of all day team matches, singles and foul1 ball foursomes: July II At Toronto Golf club, team match.

Next la Importance to removing the cause of any disease is the condition ia which tha system is left after a course of medical treatment. Medicines containing mer cury, potash or other strong mineral ingredients often do permanent Injury by eating out the delicate lining and tissues of the stomach, producing cbronfa Dyspepsia, unfavorably affecting the bowels, and 60 deranging the system otherwise, that even if the original disease had been removed from the 6ystem it is left in such a weakened and deranged condition that the health is perma nently Impaired.

Or. ltittt aud Uaruey fcia, It's Made Right drink "LUXUS" that we had shut out the Athletics three, times In tha world's series of IKuR, expressed the oHnloit after the extraordinary feat that the great Fltrher's arm would never fully recover rorrt the strain. One of the best Informed and most observant experts connected wltlt the National league, who has had excep tional opportunities to study the delivery of Mathewson since he became a Giant. Is of the opinion that his arm haa lost neither strength nor eunnlnfr, but that the adop tion of hts style by other members of Mo Uraw's staff has destroyed his effectiveness. Arrordlng to this authority every right handed pitcher who has been on New York's payroll for One year or more proc ured the Mathewson drop and emp'oys It almost constantly In games. He mentioned McGlnnlty, Ames and Taylor and declared that an umpire had stated to him that It was unusual for one of MoGraw's pitcher to serve any but the Mathewson curve to batsmen. This constant use has contributed to Its solution by bntsmen, even when em ployed by Its discoverer and greatest mas ter. It was remarked that during his game at St Ifuls McGlnnlty seldom resorted to his "raise" ball and that a large majority of his curves were caught neor the knee of the catcher. The deduction of this expert Is that his Imitators have not only injured their own effectiveness, but impaired that of Mathe-wson. Taylor has not pitched good ball for two seasons, McGlnnlty waa not as deceptive In 1A06 or 106 as In pre ceding seasons and Ames haa never made good the promise he gave the first tall that he became a Giant. Mefiraw's managerial acumen haa been exploited since he gava New Tork a championship. Sporting News. PURELY VEGETABLE to look up shipment of new model Stoddard Daytons.
