With the Base Ball “Fans” The struggle for the pennant in flic two big leagues is attracting as much attention as the political campaign. Judge Taft’s brother Charles is part owner of the Cincinnati and Chicago national league clubs The Omaha players who watch ed Roy Heacoek work out his arm before the game were astonished at his speed. (lending of < hnalia was insistent that Falls City pitch the “big guy’’for a few innings. Heck is one of the most consist ent fielders on the team. His one weakness is that he cannct throw the ball from any position but has to get “set’’ before letting it go; this makes him a trifle slow on double plays. Cornell in the outlield is the fastest man on the team in getting the hall hack in the diamond. His speed in this respect lias prevent ed many base runners from ad vancing. Kelsey really pitcher! a remarka ble game agniustOmaha. Autry, Omaha's first baseman leads the western league in batting but he could do nothing with Kelsey. Harry Welch,Omaha's right fielder and one of the crack batters in the league, was equally helpless. Had it not been for a little bad support in the game’s beninning we would have won by the score of 1 to (). Hall, the Omaha pitcher, hand ed LeBrand his catcher one that had more truth thau poetry in it. dust after Tommy Poteet had landed on an inshoot and put it down by the nate, LeBrand said to Hall, “well, you are a nood pitcher to let that mut bat you out of the lot.” “Mut is it," replied Hall, “well let me tell you somethinn, if that mut as you call him was on our team you never would yet off the bench.” And isn’t it the troth? Of course the boys play ball for the love of the name, but they nevertheless have given our fane a world of amusement during the last summer. Seward claims the state championship hut our team did much-better against the leagu ers than Seward did, Next season we should strengthen tne team in Sa few places and then we can show i them all up. The Tribune is glad tosay that the team has made a , little more than expenses this year. The halting average lor the team members as figured from the last seventeen games is as follows; Kelsey.."f.804 T. Poteet .238 Heck. 227 Foster.225 Heacock. 207 Cornell. 212 Sears.17<*j Schmelzel ..,. 143 Foehlinger. .Ill E. Poteet..104 Ragan of Omaha thought Po. teet the best amateur catcher in the state. The outfield and Chare Foster at third were also especially commended by the visitors. George Segrist of Humboldt who umpired most of the impoit ant games this summer is the best umpire this section has ever de veloped. Mr. Segrist has receiv ed a flattering offer to umpire in an Illinois league next year but has declined the employment be cause of other business llrnt re quires his constant attention.

Pos itively. not one weak heart In a hundred is. In It self. actually diseased. It Is almost always a hidden tiny little nerve that really Is all at fault. This obscure nerve—the Cardir or Heart Nerve —simply needs, and must have, more power, more stability, more controlling, more governing strength. Without that the Heart must continue to fall, and the stomach and kidneys also have these same controlling nerves. This clearly explains why as a medicine, Dr. Shoop’s Restorative has in tne past done so much for weak and ailing Hearts. Dr. Shoop first sought the cause of all this painful, palpitating, suffocat ing heart distress Dr. Shoop's Restorative—this popular prescription—Is alone directed to these weak and wasting nerve centers.
