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;

commended by the visitors.
George Segrist of Humboldt

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

Heart Strength
Heart Strength, or Heart Weakness, means Nerve
Strength, or Nerve Weakness—nothing more. 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. It builds;
it.strengthens; it offers real, genuine heart help
If you would have strong Hearts, strong di
gestion, strengthen these ‘.nerves — re-establish
them as needed, with
