Even thouch tho Clarksons have n cast
I Iron cinch on winning thu honors In tho
raco of tho Omnha Howling league there Is
no nbatcmcnt of Intercut as tho season
draws near a close. The other teams nre
making a lively struggle for coveted places
bclowtjho top-notchcrs nnd It Is the ambi
tion of each one that Is yet to meet tho
tronhy-wlnnlnc team beforo tho season
closes to win a victory. This nlono will be
(Joy enough for tho members of tho team
4that should happen to bo fortunate enough
to attain tho coveted honor.
Threo weeks yet remain of tho season's
schedule. Kach team In tho leaguo will
fplay that number of games nnd when tho
fflnalo comes tho total number played by
teach will bo 3C. Tho teams that nro to
i meet tho Clarksons nro tho Krug I'nrks, thu
Nationals and tho Umahas. Tho gamo bo-
tween the Clarksons and the Omnhas which
will start off tho last week of tho roco Is
tho one In which particular Interest centers.
Uoth teams nro mado up of players from
Clark's nllcys and tho rivalry between them
has been most pronounced from the start.
Tho Omahas' record Itsolf Is by no means a
ipoor one, their present position In second
place promising to bo maintained to tho end.
Jt Is by no means beyond tho palo of pobsI
Mllty that tho Omahas tako tho three games
that they play with tho Clarksons. Ths
members of tho former team aro putting In
n wholo lot of practice with that end In
view nnd tho outcomo of tho rnco will bo
looked forwnrd to with great Interest.
Up to this tlmo tho record of tho Clark,
sons Is a most envlahlo one. In tho thirty
three games played only three havo been
lost and they were early In tho season bo
foro Captain Clarkson's brigade was In
"uhlp-shapo condition. With tho Clnrk,sona
nnd Omahas llrmly anchored In first and
second places tho raco for third placo be
tween tho Sterlings nnd tho Gato Cltys Is
commanding the greatest amount of atten
tion. Just now tho Sterlings Mro In thnt
berth, but what tho games of tho next threo
weeks will bring forth Is altogether ques.
tlonnble. Doth tho Sterlings nnd tho Gnto,
Cltys aro scheduled to meet tho StvCharles
nnd Nntlonals. Hut tho StorllugB havo nlso
n gamo scheduled with tho Omahas, while
tho samo week the (lato Cltys will meet tho
Krug PnrkB. Proceeding on tho theory that
tho Sterlings and Onto Cltys havo an equal
chanco with tho teams they nro to meet In
common, It Is nn tindobatnblo proposition
that In tho Omahas tho Sterlings will havo
n harder proposition by far than tho Oatc
Cltys will meet in tho Krug I'nrks. I'or
theso reasons tho rnco between theso two
for third placo Is decidedly Interesting nnd
tho supremacy of tho ono over tho other
will probably bo In doubt until the closing
jilght of tho race, when tho gamo botween
Jtho Sterlings nnd Nationals takes place.
Thoro will bo moro than glory for tho
team that stands at tho head of tho leaguo
Avhon tho scaFon Is over. A beautiful
trophy, representing In solid silver a ton
pin of exact slzo aa tho regulation pin nnd
net upon n bnso of darker metal, will go to
tho winning team, which will bo tho Clark
sons. Tho trophy Is valued nt J17G And tho
Monor will bo tho Ilrunswlck & Rnlkc-Col-iSender
company. To becomo the pcrmnnont
property of any team tho trophy must be
flWoa threo successlvo yearH.
If thcro are any small ball bowlers In
Omaha who aro as proflctont at any gamo
j In which the Uttlo bowls aro UBed ns Herman
Scselln nnd W. II. Emery It Is up to them
to come forth nnd bo sworn. Hesclln and
Ornery havo Issued a chnllcngo to any othor
two bowlers in tho city for a series of three
games or moro nt ninepins, fourbnek,
cocked hat or any other gamo played with
small balls. Tho challengers aro so anx
ious to meet any othor two bowlers who
consider themselves in their class that thoy
will bo favorable to-almost any proposition
is to .terms nnd dates thnt may bo advanced.
Whllo tho challongo Is Issued to any two
Omnha bowlers tho men preferred are C.

IMPLEMENT TRADE GOOD
WliolcMtlr 31 o roll Mil In More Aniltitii
for (looiN nnil Cur Tluui for
.No v I'liMotiici.
Tho Implement dcnlcrs of Omaha roport a
trade better than over beforo In tho history
of the city. It was thought a year ugo
that high-water mark had been reached
for several years at least, but tho present
season promises to exceed last year. Com
plaints nro being made over the Inability
of rnllroads to supply cars ns desired.
According to tho statements of persons
connected with tho Implement trade In
this city nnd Council HlulTs, thcro nro
nearly 100 cars of goods ready for ship
ment which nro being held In tho ware
houses because cars cannot bo secured.
Another thing which tends to retard
business is the fact that tho Increased de
mand for farm machinery is not limited to
tho Omaha territory, but Is general
throughout tho United States, and tho fac
tories of tho local houses cannot produce
the goods ns fnst ns they nro sold.
Prices this season show little chango
from a year ago, nnd tho retail dealer has
no reason to expert nny rhnngo beforo tho
goods purchased nt this tlmo are disposed
of. For theso reasons they aro buying
liberally, and on account of tho easy condi
tion of tho money market bills aro belnc
discounted to a greater extent than over
before.
A condition existed last yenr In certain
parts of western Nebraska and In South
Dakota which was expected to rcduco tho
sales In the Omaha territory this spring.
Tho practical failure, of tho crops left tho
farmer In a position where he could not
buy and local dealers found their houses
filled this spring. Tho trado Is therefore
comparatively light In these sections, but
the orders from the other sections nro
heavier than was expected. Iowa Is buy
ing moro agricultural implements from
Omaha and Council Bluffs this season than
over beforo nnd Omaha territory has been
extended well toward tho center of tho
state. Tho local wholesalers have, nlso
reached Into now territory in Kansas, whllo
tho Wyoming trade Is growing rapidly.
ENERAL LEE'S COMMISSION
Docnineut Hns Arrived, but Olil War
rior Will Continue In
Co in in a ml.
General Fitzhugh Lee has received his
commission as brigadier general of regulars,
bearing date of February 11, but this will
havo no Immcdiato effect upon his relations
to tho War department. It Is probable that
ho will continue as commander of the De
partment of tho Missouri, serving under tho
volunteer organization, until Juno 30, when,
according to act of cotgress, tho entire
volunteer establishment terminates. Tho
general snys that, so far as ho knows, this
Is tho program ho Is expected to follow.
There nro several other generals In sub
stantially the samo position as General
Leo, nmong them General Shatter, now In
command of tho Department of California.
Tho lawyers' nlnopln tenm Is another
ambitious organization. With a Napoleonic
fervor they aro seeking now fields to con
quer and havo authorized tho sporting editor
of Tho Deo to Issue a challcngo to any other
nlnepln team In tho city to a contest of
three games. Tbo only stipulation tho
lllackstonlnns make is that tho games be
rolled on Clark's nlleys, and ns to time and
terms thoy will bo agreeable to almost any
thing.
King Denmon, ono of Omaha's best known
athletes and a patron of all sports that
tond to mental and bodily Improvement, Is
forging to tho front as one of the crack
bowlers of tho city. Ills delivery Is con
sldorcd by far the cleanest, neatest and
most grnceful of any Omaha bowler. Ho
Is a fine sparo bowler, too, and Is ono of
the most cnpable men on tho Clarkson team.
Charlie Harp Is another bowler who ranks
high among tho proflclont tcnpln enthusiasts,
It 1b doubtful If any ono would tako ex
ception to tbo statomcnt that Znrp Is the
best tenpln bowler In Omaha. Ills average
In the leaguo Is higher than that of aay
other player.
Fred Flanagan still bears the distinction
of having mado tbo highest score at ten
pins of any bowler In Omaha. On tho
board down nt Clark's Flanagan's record of
267 stands forth llko a beacon beckoning
other ambitious plnyers on to their best
efforts. Sevoral times the record has
missed being passed by a moro scratch, and
bowling experts express the opinion that
nny day may bring forth n player who will
wrest Flanagan's coveted honor away from
him. Fred never drops Into Clark's alleys
for a little exercise with the bowls but that
he casts n sly glance up nt the board to see
If his nnrao still heads the list.
Joo Guttrann's famous Green Hlvors will
try conclusions with tho Pnxton & Gal
laghers nt Clark's nlleys this afternoon.
These tenms nro about equally matched and
a rattling good contest Is promised.
Frank Conrad will hereafter have a ten
pln ball exclusively his own. He gained
possession of it by winning the monthly
prize at Clark's for the best score at ten
pins. Ills scoro was 2C0.
J. G. Kaiser, a well known packing house
salesman who makes Omnha his head
quarters, Ib a most enthusiastic bowler and
now stands nt the head of tho list of ten
pln bowlers nt Lentz & AVUIllains'. He has
n scoro of 252.
F. G. Hutlcr and C. Conrad tied last
weok for tho prlzo at I.cntz & Wllllnnis' for
the best scoro at ninepins. Each mado us
high a scoro as tho gamo will permit 10,
The winners of tho weekly prizes nt
. Clark's nlleys wcro: W. J, Llttlo at seven
up with a score of 93 nnd J. J. Horgor at
ninepins with a score of 10.

SIMERAL WINS A ROUND
Crane' Motion to Strike Ont Ilond In

E. W. Slmeral yesterday won tho first
round in his legal encounter with Herbert
Crane when Judgo Dickinson overruled
the lntlcr's motion to strike out tho super
sedeas bond iutho enso of Herbage ngalnst

should bo stricken out because the surety
In qualifying had sworn that ho owned real

sessed only personal property. The court
refused to strike out tho bond, but Inti
mated that ho might sustain n motion to

serving of the highest pi-nise. The fact that diseases of a private nature are his specialties, gives him a decided advant
age over the general practitioner, and wherever inquiry was made among leading merchants, bankers and county ofllcials
and others, the strongest preponderance of testimony showed beyond doubt that Dr. MeUrew does all thnt, lie agrees to do;
that every claim he makes is lived up to fully. Dr. McUrew is a thoroughly trained physician, a deep thinker, a keen
reasoner, a persistent reader of the literature of his profession, and hence a wide-awake and intelligent specialist. Dur

A Woman's Health Affects
All Classes of Society
where the influence of a wife or a mother is felt. Women
who realize this are not content to let "female troubles" run
on unchecked. And Wine of Cardui is showing them that it
IS no longer necessary to suffer the distress of "female ills"
in order to maintain becoming modesty. Wine of Cardui,
taken in the privacy of the home, will relieve menstrual dis
orders quicker than a surgeon's treatment. For nearly a
Vfivssl
has been used by the women of America. It guides the
maiden safely over the dangerous shoals of puberty. It sus
tains the young mother at the trials of childbirth and gently
leads the woman of middle age through the critical period
known as the "change of life". In all the aches and pains
and drains attendant on the ailments peculiar to woman,
Wine of Cardui is the staunchest guardian of her health and
happiness. A million relieved women owe life and all the
joys it brings to this simple remedy. The medicine has 5een
used by the best women in this city for many years. Every
druggist sells $1.00 bottles of Wine of Cardui.
