8t. Joe. U coining up the second turn
like a dog with a can on Its tall. Eight
ut of nine games plsyed Its record
BP to Friday night. Mctflbben came to
Omaha with his train robbers Thursday a
week ago rested owing to the rain. On
Friday with a little valuable assistance
from Mr. W. Arlington Latham they
took the first game by a single run. Man
ager McKlbben amlled a little when he got
back to the hotel, and that was all.
Then on Saturday they went out to the
park again and simply walloped the
Rourkes for fair. On Sunday the double
header went the same way, a little luck for
St. Joe and a little wooden-headed ball
playing by the Rourkes giving the MIs
sourlan the entire series. This result
made Manager Mac feel pretty good, and he
went home with the biggest wad of money
he has taken yet this year, for the games
II drew well, and didn't do a thing but
take three out 6f four from Kaneaa City,
getting one of them away from Kid Nichols,
his first defeat this season. From St. Joe
the team went to Peoria and rolled the
Distillers tn their own mud. This Is cer
tainly going pretty fast, and If the Saints
csn keep the clip they will soon be bid
ding for the top place. It Is not at all
likely, though, that they can maintain any
thing like the gait they have struck. It Is
too fast, especially for the team, which la
far from being a strong one, even on paper.
Rus Hall, who Is playing a wonderful game
at second. Is really the only reliable player
ea the team. All the others are young-
iters and uncertain even at the best. Even
In face of the wonderful spurt there is
nothing at present in the appearance of the
St. Joe. team to cause either Kansas City,
Omaha' or Denver any particular appre
hension. Another week or two may tell a
touch different story.
Incidentally, Omaha established a record
for the season, losing six straight games.
This doesn't happen very often to any
team, but In the Omaha Instance It was
doubly unfortunate, because It gives thu
Denver wiseacre excuse to say, "I told you
so," and Insist that Omaha bad struck the
lid, In support of their assertions they
point to the record of the Omaha team of
1900 and 1901. One thing they have over
looked Is the faot that not a man of the
1900 team Is now wearing an Omaha uni
form, and that the disturbing element of
the 1901 team la . gone, too. In 1900 It
was not an uncommon sight to see Omaha
players bn the streets at night long after
bedtime, frequently la an advanced stage
of intoxication. It .also happened that
.they went on the field while under the In
fluenc of liquor. . That Is why the team
xncuted Its famous slide that year. In
1901 the team at no time was strong, and
waa "never looked .on as a pennant possl.
blllty. This season it Is strong. In many
respects the strongest In the league. Its
Important positions are filled by veterans,
who not only know the game, but are
capable of playing It as well. Its pitching
staff Is strong and the recent Improvement
In batting warrants the suggestion that It
la no longer to; be despised as a hitting
team, -i No - dissension -exists . among the
members and nobe of them' are playing for
records; -AU these facts, which "have been
overlooked by the dopemakers for the Pen
vsr papers, will Impress themselves on the
Denver - public before the Omaha team
leaves there on Tuesday. The Denver team
may Win all three of the games, but will
have to play better ball than It has done
lately. . (
' Statistics for the team's, work during the
week are really comforting.. The figures
how that the fielding la still up to a high
mark, while the batting has taken a great
lift-up. r Dolan, Btewart, Oenlns, Calhoun
Goading and Hlckey all show marked Im
provement at the bat. Stone has fallen Ju.l
under the .400. mark, while Dolan and Stew
art have reached the .300 and Carter and
.Oenlns are not far away. In the field ths
steady work of all the team Is still appar
sot. Here are the figures. Including the last
gam played with Dea Moines:
fiATTINO AVERAGES.
Last
A. B. Runs. Hits. Ave. W eek
Some gopelp hss been going around about
Dave Calhoun leaving the team. If Bill
Rourke I any authority, there's nothing
to It. Calhoun was out of the Des Moines
series because of his Injured leg. He still
suffers severely from the spiking he re
ceived at Kansas City. Five days of rest
did him much good and he will be found
guarding the sack as usual at Denver,
giving the people out there a chance to
see what a real first bsseman looks like.
Carter'a Injured hand Is nearly well, while
Dolan's sore finger gives him but little
trouble. Denver, though, has always been
a hoodoo for Omaha players and It wouldn't
be surprising If the team would come away
from there with a long hospital list. The
sandy ground on which the Denver dia
mond Is laid out Is very hard on the visit
ing players.
Some hooting has been done because Dan
Stearns gave up the Indicator to resume
the first baseman's mitt at Des Moines.
Arlle Latham has threstened to break back
Into the game. If he can't play any better
than he can umpire he wouldn't last over
one Inning on any team. If Aril It wise
he'll hang onto the Indicator as long as
the league will stand for him.
And while we are talking of old-timers
breaking back Into the game, there's Fore
man pitching, or pretending to pitch, for
Dais Gear's team In the Hickey league.
And they are calling him "Frankle"- and
pretending that he's a boy wonder. Now,
If Dale Gear Is really looking for old-time
favorites' to attract Kansas City patronage,
why doesn't he dig up "Dark Days" Con
way and Fark Swartzell, who were team
mates of Foreman In the year of ths big
rain or some time thereabouts? And If he
could only get Old Hickory Carpenter on
third and Big Bill Hoover to catch again.
And Hughey Duffey went out somewhere
and lassoed Freddy Barnes and got him
back into a Milwaukee uniform. But
Freddy isn't nearly so dead as some of
the rest of them, at that, and ought to
pitch a respectable game of ball.
their seeming Innuendo, to mske soma an
nouncements regarding the status of his
team. .Mr. Ellis ssys the Union Stock
Yard Juniors do not play for money nor
do they play Sunday ball being governed
by rules similar to those of the Young
Men's Christian association.
"I have been deluged." said Mr. Ellis, "by
challenges for such games, which I cannot
accept. To show Just where we stand,
however, I wish to make the following
proposition: I will arrange game for any
evening, to begin it :20. The long days
allow plenty, of time to play seven Innings
at least before then and dark.
"Now that. In my opinion, offers a good
chance for those teams that aay they can
not play on week days because the mem
bers are working. On these conditions my
tesm Is open for games with all Junior
clubs from now- till August 14. On that
date we start on our tour through the
state. I have a three weeks trip sched
uled and we expect a great time and a tri
umphant tour."

Two little features of the St Joe aeries
Omaha deserve to be remembered. In
the third Inning of the first game of the
double-header Mr. Maher, formerly of
Philadelphia, now of Sainjomo, took ths
kinks out of one of Attorney Gordon's
slow ones. Mr. Brashear, whose brother
used to play third for Des Moines, tried to
sacrifice Mr. Maher along to second. It
was an easy one for .the attorney, but he
made a scoot for first base, apparently over
looking In his earnestness .the fact that
Dave Calhoun, Is hired to cover that bag.
In the meantime Mr. Brashear and Mr.
Maher were both scooting and what-was
Intended for a sacrifice went for a safe
hit. This worried, the attorney, and a
large, red-faced man In the grandstand
yelled, "Take him out!" A wide one to
Belden and a wild pitch,' which, advanced
both runners, was enough for Attorney Gor
don, and, -with permission of Captain Stew
art, he went to the bench and Graham took
up the work. He finished giving Belden a
base on balls and then Hartman poked out
a single.' Belden essayed to run bom
from first on the hit, but was caught three
feet from the plate. "Safe," said Mr.
Latham, who thinks be can umpire,, and
safe It was. Then, to show that no cool
ness existed on his part, Mr. Roth, who
doesn't look It,' hoisted one of, Oscar's
beauties over the fence. That's a com
bination rarely seen In these dsys. 'three
singles, a base on balls nd a h6ms run.,
with no one out. Omaha made a fierce fin
ish, pounding Parvtn In all directions, but
couldn't win. In this game Rus Hall made
one of the most wonderful stops ever seen
on a ball field. Stone hit the ball a terrific
smash and sent it straight across the-diamond.
It looked safe to everyone, but Hall
made a great run and dived for the ball,
catching to the left and about twenty feet
back of aecond. He was full length on the
ground when he got the ball In his hands,
but. rolling over on his back, he threw, to
Maher In time to catch an Omaha runner
who was loafing along from first. This
play was cheered to the echo, as It de
served. In the next game another feature
was Inserted which Mr. Latham didn't tell
'em about at St. Joe. Calhoun swatted the
ball for what should hav been a- three-
base hit but his bsd leg would only let
him get to second. Alloway went to run for
him and was pushed along to third on
sacrifice. He was caught taking a nap
bout ten feet off the bass by one of Roth's
quick, throws and started for horn with
Rohe after him. About half way Roh
overtook the slow-moving Mr. Alloway and
rode him the rest of the way to the plate
but Mr. Latham, who knows how to um
pire, called it safe.

Omaha, who la manager of the baa ball
team known as the Union Stock Yards
A new organization that ha already as
sumed an important position among the
sportsmen's associations of Omaha and one
which promises to advance by rapid strides
Into still further prominence Is the Auto
mobile club of Omaha. Starting but a few
days since the club had on Its charter
membership rolls thirty-five names and has
since then added to these a dozen more,
with prospect of further growth com
mensurate with and depending upon the In
crease of the number of machines of this
description to be found In the territory the
club roll embraces.
The membership of the club Includes the
automobile owner of Omaha, South Omaha,
Council Bluffs and contiguous vicinity. The
official roster of the club, according to an
election Just held, Is:
President, A. I. Root, Omaha: vice presi
dent, J. T. Stewart, Council Bluffs; secre
tary, Dal ton Risley, Omaha; treasurer, Dr
P. F. Straub, Fort Crook. A road officials
H. B. Fredrlckson is captain and A. K.
Detweller Is lieutenant. The director of
the club are A. I. Root, J. T. Stewart, D.
Risley, P. F. Btraub, E. W. Lamoreaux, E.
H. Packard, T. B. Lacy, H. H. Van Brunt
and F. N. Connor.
There are In the territory covered by the
membership of the Automobile club about
twenty-five machines of this description. To
have fifty of the owner already In the club
la extremely flattering, and the members
have no doubt but that everyone owning an
auto will, wish to Join as soon as the ex
Istenca of the organization 1 brought par
ticularly to his .attention.
It Is thought, too, that purchases of au
tomobiles by local people will grow rap
Idly, as the vehicles come into more gen
eral attention and notice. One chauffeur
who owns his own machine and has become
an'ardent devotee says there ought to be
about 200 autos in Omaha alone. This es
timate he bases not alone on the popu
lation of the city, but also on Its number
of people of means sufficient to warrant
their having such a vehicle.
It Is certain, at least, that as the sal
of autos Increases the size and strength
of the Automobile club will grow. Unlike
clubs In other line of sport, this on will
have 1 an unique advantage In the fact that
everyone who has an autoNwlll wish to
belong, because there will be so compare
tlvely few of them that it will be more, or
less of a distinctiveness and - exclusion
about it. With bicyclers this could never
be true, ae experience ha proven. Given
a town with 6,000 wheelmen and you are
lucky to get 600 to Jotn wheel clubs.
That much pleasure can b derived from
auto club runs has already been demon
strated by the Initial run of the, season
which was held last Wednesday evening
Only a brief whirl about town was taken
but It was good sport and is a forerunner
of what Is to come when the longer trips
are made. As Interest and experience lnT
creasss some extensive stunt of this kind
are to be carried out. Centuries will be
made and all kinds of time records
smashed between Omaha and the vsrlous
towns about- One little scud that . has
been planned for a weekly evening affair Is
to Fort Crook and return, fourteen miles
each way. This will make a pleasant
Journey of an hour and a half or less, and
band music at the other end will enhance
It, as ths people In the parties will have
plenty of time to enjoy themselves for as
long a tims as they wish at the fort be
fore starting home again.
Century runs are a snap for the chauf
feur. Double centuries are not near the
feat that the single one was to the cyclist
H. E. Fredrlckson made the first century
In an Omaha auto a short time since
scooting northwest along the Elkhorn val
ley for a round trip of 123 miles. He
says it came easy, as he was actually run
ning only about elxehour.
Mr. Fredrlckson will shortly receive
machine that will be the first type of ths
record-beaters so famous la the east and
abroad to arrive in Omaha. The vehicle
will be massive, weighing a ton, and built
very low to the ground. It is capabl
of doing forty miles an hour right along
and will ride oyer any kind of road. Mr.
Fredrlckson says that with a machine so

speed it can attain a ditch or open culvert

The majority of the gunners are trying to

as the fall flight of ducks does not begin
much before then, and these water fowls
are the, first thing with wings on that you
can shoot at around this country.
From that time till November 1, how

One thing at which sportsmen rejoice, al
though the Immediate rewards are still a

which quail are forbidden fruit. Let No

the came laws will no longer have in
parentheses after the quail clause the re

has been hard to endure.
Of course ducks and prairie chickens are
not the only things that will be open for
shooting. Along with the duck season
which continues from September 1 to April
16 next, come geese, brants, swans, cranes
and game water fowls, beside jacksntpe,
Wilson snip and yellow legs. Then with
the one month of chicken sport Is Included
sage chicken and grouse. All these pleas

most huntsmen have not dared as yet even
to contemplate the sport to come.

CROSS-COUNTRY CLUB FORMED
. M. C. A. Raraaers Will Do Some
Loner Distance Work
.a Roads.
The latest, move In amateur sporting
circles Is the formation of the Cross-Coun-'
try club by a. portion, nl the member of
the Young Men' Christian association.
The club mil' comprises those athletes Who
are especially, devoted to running, and if
the prosperity which the club has enjoyed
during the first Week's existence may be
taken for an .omen the new organizatiou
Is destined to be ,the center of much ac
tivity, pleasure and Interest during the
summer months.
Two run hav already been held by the
club, and each was well attended. It la
the old English sport of hare and hounds
that the Cross-Country clubbers indulge
in, with the fluttering paper acent and
other paraphernalia so aptly commemorated
in the story of "Tom Brown at Rugby."
The club has about twenty-five members,
and it is the intention to mske some big
chases during June and July. The first
two runs were made rather short, but it Is
planned to extend the distance each time,
and soon the trotter hope to be doing their
little fifteen or twenty miles ever hill and
dale, field and fallow, several times each
month. The runs will be held In the even
ing, commencing late In the afternoon and
lasting- till It I top dark to see scent.
Thi. sport has always been popular in
boy' school where English method pre
vail, but outside of them it ha never
gained much preference in thin country. It
Is a great open air stunt, but Is very hard
work. Three fast and industrious hares.
though handicapped with their big sacks
of paper torn fine, can give a field ef
bounds a greet chase, even though they
epresd scent generously and broadcast.
And when the hares happen to be a little
tlngy of their trail and fall to mark it
with a broad, white pathway the hounds
find their trouble greatly Increased, for
they must then not only run In pursuit
but also range the fields from side to side
in search for the trail. .
Hares are alwaya chosen for their strong
running power, a they are supposed' to
b hindered more or less by having to
scatter scent, which gives weaker runners
an opportunity to overtake them. Haree
play together always, but the hounds scat
ter out as they will. No scent is dropped
within a specified distance of the start, a
th hare muat first get out of, sight, so
ther is first the Job of finding where the
trail begins. Each runner ha hi own
particular hunch of where to look for It,
and when it 1 finally located someone Is
certain to b away off course, to one side
or behind, end he must get an extra hustle
on himself to catch the leaders.'
Ths endeavor or the hounds I to over
take the hares, or come within a time
limit of their arrival home. When this
proves Impossible of accomplishment the
hounds vie then for first man In, and the
finish of a long cbaae Is likely to develop
some pretty contests for this honor which
bring out? all th resource of a runner's
staying power and condition generally. The
chase la an arduou sport.
When the blood is charged with Uric Acid and other inflam
matory matter, aud muscles and joints, tissues and nerves having
become saturated with it, an attack of Rheumatism is liable to come
at any time, and from very slight causes sudden chilling of Uie
body when over-heated, exposure to night air, a fit of indigestion,
an easterly wind, or any sudden change in the weather will stir the
blood and set in motion these demon forces as quickly as the cold,
piercing winds of winter.
The real cause of Rheumatism is a polluted, sour and acid
condition of the blood, and as it flows through the body it deposits
a gritty, irritating substance or sediment in the muscles, joints and
nerves, and it is these that produce the terrible pains, inflammation
and swellintr. and the misery and torture of acute Rheumatism.
No other disease causes such pain, such wide-spread suffering as

- helpless and miserable. When neglected or improperly treated,
Rheumatism becomes chronic; the pains are wandering or shifting
from one place to another, sometimes sharp and cutting, again dull and aggravating. The
muscles of the neck, shoulders and back. ;oints of the knees, ankles and wrists, are most
often the seat of pain. Countless linimci rubbed upon the affected parts, and plasters are
applied to get relief, but such things do , ach the
poisoned blood; their effect is only temporary; they are
neither curative nor preventive. The blood must be
purified, the acid poison counteracted, and all irritating
matter removed from the circulation before permanent
relief and a thorough cure is effected, and no remedy
does this so certainly and so quickly as S. S. S. It con
tains not only purifying and tonic properties, but solvent
qualities as well, all these being necessary in eradi
cating the poison and making a complete and lasting
cure of 'Rheumatism. S. S. S. cleanses the blood, and
under its tonic effect the nervous system regains its
normal tone and the appetite and digestion improve,
resulting in the upbuilding of the general health, and
because of its solvent properties all irritating matter and
acid narticles are dissolved and filtered out of the sys
tem, thus relieving the muscles and joints and removing all danger of future attacks'. S. S. S. con
tains no Mercury, Potash or minerals of any description, but is guaranteed purely vegetable. Old
people will find it not only the best blood purifier, but a most invigorating tonic. Just such a
remedy as they need to enricn tne Diooa ana quicneu me
circulation.
Whether you have Rheumatism in the acute or chronic
stage, the treatment must be internal, deep and thorough
in order to be lasting. Never be satisfied with anything
: less than an absolutely perfect cure.'- This you : can-get by
the use of S. S. S.
I Write us fully and freely about your case, and medical advice will be given without charge,
and our special book on Rheumatism will be mailed free to all desiring it.

many bottles of S. S. S. to give to thbse needing
good medicine and who ware unable to buy it
themselves. There ia nothing that I can aay too
highly in favor of S. S. 8., nd will continue both
to keep it in the house and recommend it to any
whom I think need a sure cure for Impure blood
arising from any cause.
