Athletes and aihletlrs in general lave
tiren takina; something of rest at tbe I'nl
erslry of Nebraska (1 urine tb week Just
past. It kaa a period of uncertainty
In basket ball, a momrtt of Inactivity along
llaae of tbe track and a time of ablfting
systems In tbe base ball cajrf. a new roach
baring taken charge of tbe osnaidates fnr
different positions on tbe diamond.
"Candidate! for battery positions will

A. E. Gordon, coeih." Tbe above notice,
plastered Too the locker room door during
tba early part of the week, told the base
ball circle of the achool that Eddie Gordon
bad been secured aa a coach for the team
and that be would begin hit work In real
earnest immediately. With this announce
ment cornea greater confidence la tbe eut
look for tbe acbedule thla year, for It will
be remembered that Eddie Gordon waa at
one time tba atar twlrler for tbe amity
and that later, when he went Into profes
elonal circle., he waa at ill a teener to at
tract attention. He will coach the team,
and more especially the pitchers, for three
or four weeks at least, and may be induced
to stay longer with Nebraska.
In accordance aith the .notice of Coach
Gordon, about fifteen men put in an appear
ance at the gymnasium Thursday after
noon, and were aet at once to working out.
Each man who la trying for the throwing
position la given about twenty minuiea
every day of individual Instruction from
the coach- He takes tbem one at a time,
clips their crude movements, puts them
next to the most approved fashion of hold
ing the boraehide for the delivery of vi
rions curvea. and then .watches them try
to do It with his expert eye. Just .after the
bunch bad quit . working out for the first 1
time under bis supervision, be said to a
representative of The Bee:
"The men are show ing up pretty wen, and
are now doing regular work-out exercise
In tbe cage daily. The team thia year will
toot be as good aa It was last, from the
fact' that but three old men are back for
the game. We are fortunate, however, ;n
having to start such good men for the bat
tery as Townsand and Bender, who, being
old men, will steady the team wonderfully.
Thla year a pitcher will play the bench
when be la not In the box. That shifting
positions is bad, but bad to be done last
year because, Townsend aid Bobby Gaines
were so much better at the sacks than any
one else who showed up, that vie simply
bad to use them. Ve will get out of doors
Just as aon aa the weather permits."
So far the men showing up beet aa pros
pective pitchers are Morris, Ling, longa
naecker, Hur beaky and Gore, while thoee
who are making good behind tbe willow are
Bender, Whitcomb and Wilson. Townsend,
of course, can't be beat as a twlrler, and
will alwaya be on band. For tbe infield,
which has been something of a perplexity.
Hood, Mitkle. Wright. Btian. Ramsey and
pair of Johnsona are looking good. Vickie
la a foot lmll man and Wright a tennU
champion of three states, and the Job at
first bass ilea between them. Johnson and
Ftien will try for second. Hood and John
eon of Fremont for shortstop, and Guy Hood
alone for third. He 'baa It so firmly cinched
that ell other hkve vanished. Then there
la some chance that Jlmmle Bell, last
year's captain, may return to the game.
"I shall be In If 1 can," be aald yesterday.
Another man whom It la planned to put at
the tossing stunt ia Alva Ahllns of Hast
ings, who ia aald to be a corking good
twlrler and to secure whom an effort Is
being made.
The acbedule for tbe season la pretty
nearly complete and will no doubt be
definitely determined within a week. It
is ' now planned to take an eastern trip
which win include Iowa, Illinois, Indiana
and returning, Kansas and Missouri, and
for which the team will leave on May z.
A larger number of home games bave been
planned this year than last, and they take
In Kansas for a pair of games, April 17 and
IB; Washington college. May 1; Colorado,
May IS; Highland Park, May 20; Knox.
May 22; South Dakota, May 25 and 26, and
probably Bellevne and Crelgbton. Over
twenty games will be put on tba list and
tbe sport will run high.-, Last year thia
allege crowd beat nineteen out of twenty-
twe g-amea played, and with prospects as
good aa they now seem, they will very
nearly equal that record again.
Ia track work tbe men began Thursday
arternoon of thla week to train for individ
ual events, and will meet la the "gym."
at 4 o'clock dally from now on for that
purpose. A ' number of meets are being
planned and It is thought that with the
individual coaching of lr. Clapp the Ne
braska team will beat a number of tbe
out-of-door records, aa It did within. Work
outside will begin as soon aa tbe weather
win permit. Graves, the fellow who had
'sever done track work In bla life and took
three first plaoes on Charter day, la auf
ferlng somewhat from a bruised shin, but
ia nevertheleaa training for events.
Captain John Tobtn has now a squad of
abount thirty men under bis direction, and
they are all enthusiastic, gome of those
who are showing up especially well are
Bill Juhnsbo, tbe colored boy; Benedict,
who tied Johnson for the indoor pole vault
record; Tobln and Martin, with the
weights; Leonard, a Jumper; Corr, a hurd

Last Friday night tbe final three events
of the midwinter athletic carnival cf the
Toung Men's Christian asaoclatloa were
pulled off. In the gymnasium and team No.
6. Captain Lee. which baa led from the first,
won top honors by tbe margin of only one
point over team No. 2, Captain Frankfurt.
The total score of Lee's men In the car
nival was 84 points, while Frankfurt's fol
lowers made 81. Meanwhile team No. 1.
Captain Atkins, which was In fifth place laVan answer that he was signed by tbe De-
week, leaned up to third in the final score
with a total of 25 points. Thus on the final
night Atkins aad bis men were far the stars
of the contest, aa tbey made twelve points
on that night alone, while tbe leading team
made but live points.
Tbe carnival consisted of twelve event a,
and tbe final three were worked off Friday
night. Tbey were a pull-up, high kick and
goal throw. In eaCh of the twelve events
first place baa counted five points for the
team scoring it, second rlaee three points
and third place one point. Attendance haa
counted one point for each man on a team
each of tbe three nlghta. Eight men com
posed a team, there being ten octets in all.
In the pull-up, which is what tbe average
boy knows as "chinning, team No. 4, Cap
tain Greene, won with an average of eleven
pull-ups per man. Team No. 2, Captain
Frankfurt, was second with an average of
nine- and one-fourth pull-upa. Team No. E,
Captain Klger, was third with an average
of nine pull-ups. Jack Ball of team No. t
waa high Individual competitor In this
event, be scoring eighteen pull-ups. That
la a fine record. In this event the men all
Jumped for the bar and let out at extreme
arm's length between each rise.
Captain Atklna of Team No. 1 won tbe
high kick for bla team. He made seven
feet, nine Inches. H. Green of Team No.
4 was second and Captain Meyera of Team
No. 8 third. In tbia event tbe records
made were low, at tbe atbletea bave not
worked much at thla stunt. They will be
doing nine feet and over soon.
In tbe goal throw the mea were very
weak. Thla la merely throwing a btaket
ball at a basket ball goal, tbe endea vor
being to soore aa many basket a In succes
sion as possible. Captain Atklna of Teun
No. 1 won with an average of two and rne
thlrd baskets, be being compelled te tlirow
off a tie with Captain Meyers of Team No.
7, who was aecond finally with an average
two and one-fourth baskets. Captain
Frankfurt of Team No. I waa third with
two baskets. .
Thia carnival has proved a great suc
cess. Keen interest baa been exhibited
and competition haa been strong. The
race for first plaoe was a tight one all
through. Tbe twelve events were: Relay
race, tug of war, broad Jump, crab race.
underswlng, relay potato race, rope climb.
bal lthrow, relay bop race, pull-up, high
kick and coal throw. Similar contests
wiU be inaugurated, their nature being
changed enough te give some novelty.
Last Monday R. Cornwell, a student at
Bellevue colleges and tbe beat all-around
athlete at that achool , walked into the
gymnasium aad announced bla intention of
getting bla name on that honor roll be
fore be left the building. And be did.
Cornwell got into a "gym" suit and scored
eleven polnta before he stopped. He only
needed seven to make tbe roll. In two
events be made first place, a very good
record, aa the first place marks are aet
high. , These were the standing broad
Jump and the two standing broad Jump.
He made aecond place In the three stand
ing broad Jumps and In the shot put. He
made third place in the underawihg. Corn
well is the only addition to the roll dur
ing the week. Many more are expected
during March, as a number of athletes are
working in preparation tor a test.
C. H. Hamilton has Increased bis total
score on the roll eighteen points, the high
est of any, and be now has stars on ten of
tbe twenty-four events. He bas made
first in the goal Jump and anderswlng,
second in the rope climb, two standing
broad Jumps, fence vault and ball throw,
third In thea tandlng high Jump, atandlng
broad Jump, three standing broad Jumps
and shot put.

Testerday Manager William Rourke'a
mood waa alliterative, and bis humor am
biguous. "That 'a buyln' bases early," be

sacks in there tor the season's work, and
bow tbey will get worried and ragged
around before lt'a over. That'a Just a be
ginning of tbe man little purchases X
have to look forward to as preparatory.
The twenty dosen or odd balla that we'll
bat out of business will be another Item.
Then we alwaya need about a bait gross
of bats, six dosen or so. Tou'd be sur
prised to think that we'd get away with
the surface clean they are cot healing. A blood
medicine to purify and strengthen the polluted blood
and a tonic to build up the general system is what
is needed, and S. S. S. is just such a remedy. No
poison is so powerful and no germ so deadly
thet me.nv. but bats seem to go mighty
fast. Fvery nan is supposed to hsve tee
along. an3 ih-T are Irckra frequertlr.
Then tbey are ettlen a gtx flal.
"Put I trnsto't forget to tell yon of the
scll cw ur.lMrmt we'll hive this season.
Yes. 1b old orri were rrf nice, tbe !.
anl beat looking e ever bad. and they
are In good shape yet, lot I wsnt some
more. We'll use these old ones along for
the first few weeks of the aeexon. and about
May la we'll come out la tbe new toga.
They'll be white for borne games, blue for
the road. Just as before, but the trim
mings will be different. Last eranoa I had
red trimmings for the white suits. This
time they'll b blue. Blue socks, blue rap.
blue belt and blue lettering, a single Mg
round 'O' cn the left breast. The Jacket,
too. will be a shade of light blue, very
handsome. It'll give a touch cf color to
the road clothea, too. This year the blue
ruita will carry maroon trimmings all
through. On the whole the boys will be
well togged.
"My team stands Just the tame. I'm still
hanging fire on this Whistler business. He
offered me any one of three pitchers from
the Montgomery Southern league team if I
wonld let him go there to manage it. They
were Hopkins. Bruner and Eli. I chose
Hopkins. Eddie Law ler, who played with
Btrmlncham in the Southern all last sea
son, tells me that Hopkins Is a wonder, tbe
best left-hander be ever saw. And that
must be about true, for as soon as I wired
naming Hopkins for the trade there came
trolt American league team, and that there
would be some difficulty In getting him. I'd
like to get him, because be's good and also
because he's a south paw. I need a good
left-handed pitcher. The only one I've got
is that young fellow from St. Louis. Com
panion. I'd feel lost without a good south
paw in my Hut. Even If I can't get Hop
kins, Lawler says that thla Bruner is also
a good man, and I may then take him on.
"I see that tbe American and National
leagues find that tbey will conflict in four
or five games. But thst was only to be
expected, and will cause no difficulty or
misunderstanding whatever. When tbe
schedules come out tbe same trouble will
doubtless be found in tbe Western league
and , American association arrangements.
Ton see, lt Is Just about Impossible to avoid
all conSictloos. We can keep rbem off all
Important dates, but we cannot help having
a tew. Mileage would be too heavy if we
avoided them all. It might cost a team
several thousand miles trsvellng to avoid
a' few conflicts, and in that case it ia a
better financial proposition for the teams
to take the conflicts than to do tbe travel
ing. What they lose by the mileage ex
pense would be more than what they would
lose the other way.
"Presidents Sexton and Hickey are now
out west engaged In their attempt to bring
peace between those leaguea, the Pacific
Northwest and tbe Coast leaguea. I cer
tainly hope they succeed, but there Is only
on wsy to do it. That Is for the Coast
people to withdraw from Portland and Beat
tie, There's no other way. They cer
tainly cannot expect the other league to
withdraw, for lt would leave tbem with an
abnormal circuit or none at all. As a mat
ter of tact, I don't see how those Coast
league people can afford to take In those
Awns anyway. From Los Angeles to Fort
land la about 1,80 miles, and to Seattle
ia more than a bundrejd miles added on.
That'a a terrible stretch of country to
cover, and San Francisco, Oakland and
Sacramento are all nearly 1.000 miles from
tbe two northern towns. Their former lit
tle circuit of four teams waa, a money
maker, -but I don't See bow this could be."
SHOOTING OUTLOOK IS GOOD
Serlna Fllaat at Water Fewl Haa Set
la Early and Spertaaaeat
Are Eaaer.
All tbe last week geese bave been flying
along tbe Missouri and Platte rivers, and
tbe hearts of huntsmen are warming with
an anticipation that la half tbe Joy of the
dhase Itself. In a week more there will
be bunting galore, and there ia every proa
pect that both the birds and tbe shooters
In this part of te country will be more
plentiful than for many seasons past.
Tbe first news of tbe geese w-aa brought
by a conductor on the Central City branch
of the Cnlon Pacific Along hla run Mon
day be eaw several flocks. Next eame aiml
lar information from Cocad, and finally
Frank Leeder came in from De Soto, and
aald that a bait dosen bunches of geese
bad gone past him. Outaide of Nebraska,
similar reports come from Paul, la.
Ducks have not yet been seen. Tbey are
less ventursome than their stronger breth
ren, the geeee, but a very few more warm
days will bring tbem along in tbe wake of
their hardier pioneers. Then will the
hunters hie to the old favorite haunts,
where they know that open water la good
and food plentiful, and where, therefore, tbe
birds will be if they are anywhere at all.
Till April IS tbe aportaman may shoot
water fowl aa be will, and from mdlcatlona
at tbe gun storea he will take extensive
advantage of tbe opportunity this' season.
80 the man who maintains thst lt'a only
chicken and quail that the shotgun ex
per fancies will find himself plainly out
voted this spring. There will be Just about
twenty times as much bunting done for
the water fowl as there was for the land
fowl laet tall. There will be more birds,
more time to hunt them, and more men
after them. And in thia calculation the
Jacksnlpe should not be omitted. He will
get bis share of tbe attention.
"But bow do you know that birds will be
ao plentiful this spring when they here
Just commenced to fly?" Is the question put
by the tyro to the old band at the game.
With bis true huntsman's lore ready to
command, the shooter replies: "Because
there was tbe biggest flight south across
Nebraska last fall that there bas been In
tea yesre. Tbey always come back north
tbe same way."
And they do, almost alwaya. There Is
only one thing that ran stop them. That
ice. To illustrate. If the Miaslsstppl
river ice breaks up before the Missouri
river Ire does, the birds will come north
along it; if the Missouri first offers open
water, that course will be the one chosen;
if both open up at the aame time, tbe
birds will come north along whichever
stream they followed south a few months
before. Tbey must have the open water to
follow.
As fsr as feed is concerned, they can
come most any way this spring. There
waa corn and grain everywhere last season,
and the blrda will And more than they can
eat anywhere from weatern Nebraska to
Ohio. And that item makes a big difference
In their courae of flight. The shooters know
full well that during tbe yeara of the
drouth here the blrda would avoid Ne
braska like a place of pestilence. Tbey
would never be seen either wsy.

Dandruff, Falling Hair and Baldness.
It Begins Im the Young. Dr. savmraud, ot
Taris, France, one of the greatest living authorities upon
diseases of tbe batr and scalp, bas recently published the
most exhaustive work ever written upon this subject. It.
Cartel, himself an eminent investigator, In reviewing this
book for La Nature, submits the Doctor's conclusions In
the following terse announcement: "BALDNESS IS A
COXTAGIOfS DISEASE CAVSED ET A MICROBE. So far
from being a disease cf old age, lt ia an affection of yeutb.
IT BEGINS IN THE TOCNO. and increases, whether rapidly
or slowly, up to the fiftieth year." We learn, therefore,
that baldness as a destructive malady la not a disease of
old age, but of youth, for in bald old men we simply see the
RESILT of a disease that has been fiosiy doing its work
' for many years. The young man with abundant hair may not
know that he has the disease that will later produce bald
ness; in fact, the first certain evidence of its presence Is
the spnearance of dandruff, which is

Chronic Baldness Positively
Incurable. Later in life trie dier-ape will have
done it work, and chronic baldness, either partial or com
plete, will be the result. In chronic baldness the hair folli
cles, which completely fill the sralp. are greatly shrunken
in site and this shrinking causes the skin to stretch and
appear shiny. Indicating a complete atrophy of the follicles,
tn which case, no power on car.b can bring another crop
of hair.
If the baldness 1s scute or only pnrtil it shows that
many oi the hair follicles are not badly diseased, for the
microbe growth is confined to the e bacimis glands end has
nnt yet extended to the pHpillH. or true hair root Cnees of
this 'character are ruble. even thouith tbe baldness la
