1 Omaha ha a little better than a fighting
chance for second place in the Western
loHgue race, which will not be pleasant
newt for tlja small number of home
roasters, who bet their money on not as
ooi as third. This little coterie of cranks
Is never so happy as when Omaha Is losing,
but they have paid during the last two sea
sons a very handsome figure for thinking
that any team In the league could brat the
Hourke family, and particularly on the
home grounds. They are not so many,
but they make a lot of noise, and lose their
money. The race that Omaha has been
making lately has pulled all the rest of the
bunch off their feet. Blnce August 1,
Omaha has won mora games and lost fewer
than any team In the leaguo, and this Is
with meeting the strong clubs, too. All the
others have had a crack at St. Joe, but
even with this advantage they have not
been ableMo keep track of Omaha's smoke
to fast haa the pace been. Bight out of
ten from Bloux City and six out of seven
from Pueblo, brought them up to Denver,
and they began on Denver right where tliey
had left off on the others. The account
between the Itourke family and the aril
alien, will be closed this afternoon, when.
If there Is no let up the books will show
a balanoe In favor of Omaha. This Is tha
only series we stand In need of, and we
most win It. Des Moines got away through
the unfortunate misconduct of second base
man Martin. This gave the Des Moines
the victory, that places them to the good
with Omaha, but none of the rest will be
able to sny that. For a team of cripples,
the Champions are surely making the other
fellow bump.
Herman Long's revolt against the man
ners of the Des Moines manager Is another
feather In the cap of that sterling player.
Mike Cantillon has done the game along
the Western circuit more harm by his con
duct during the season than anything that
1 possibly have been devised. He has
natrd the support of the Des Moines
people and wherever his team has appeared
people have stayed away from the games
because they did not care to be treated to
the Inevitable exhibition of rowdyism cer
tain to follow the beginning of the game.
He Is not feared by umpires or anyone else,
but Is merely despised. Just what the turn
of time's wheel will bring us for next
season cannot now be told, but It is hoped
that it will not bring us Mike Cantillon
A'rnln.
Next season's program Is still very much
up In the air. The Colorado people tried
to force a meeting of the league during
the week to determine on the circuit, but
wero unable to do so. The valley mag
nate It getting to be a wary bird, and
doesn't propose to be caught by the
mountaineer's chaff any longer. If a
Colorado town is located on the circuit for
next summer it will be under different
conditions than have prevailed during the
five years' agreement that Is now coming
to a close. The Colorado trip has been a
losing one for three years, and for the
last two years haa been particularly bad.
Last season the weather was in a measure
responsible for this, but this season It has
been clearly due to the Indifference of the
public. Denver Is not a bad base ball town
and with the blight of Tebeaulsm removed
from the team there It would undoubtedly
be a paying proposition, but Denver Is the
only town In the state that will give sup
port to a team. Colorado Springs has
shown conclusK-ely that the attempt to
force base ball down tha pockets of its
people Is hopeless, and Pueblo Is said to
be worse than the Springs. To go to
Denver alone under present conditions is
sura to be a costly trip, and for this reason
It la quite likely that Colorado will be
marooned by the Western league next sea
son. ' St. Joseph is to have a berth In
Doc Shlvely's Western association, and In
return Topeka may be taken into the West
ern league. Davenport, Rock Island, Peo
rJo, and Dubuque are other aspirants, and
Is not improbable that these may be
'kn tn to make up tha eight-club clr
ult. This will require a readjustment of
iAe Three-I circuit, and would also result
In sending tha Western out of Class A.
This la all speculation as yet, though,
and the formation of other circuits will
have a great bearing on tha fate of Omaha.
Mr. Rourke is watching for a chance In
the American association circuit, and be
lieves he sees an oponing. The work of
rebuilding will start In the east, with tha
adjustment of tha Eastern league, and
this will come back to the American, and
thus afford the opportunity Omaha haa
hoped for so many years. Big league
writers profess to believe that the twelve
club circuit is la lit aside, but the changes
In ownership and all that doesn't give much
support to tha theory that the competition
is going to continue much longer.
The dull thud of the pigskin Is Once again
heard on the foot ball season of 19 grid
Iron. Coaches, veteran players and substi
tute with the ambitious preparatory school
atara are ready to report at all of tha uni
versities on the opening day of practice
and every Indication points to one of the
best seasons of recent years. All of the
'varsity squads, with one or two excep
tions, are in tha pink of condition for the
gridiron struggle. In the group of eastern
colleges, known as tha "Big Six," Colum
bia will be the only one who cannot call
on nearly all of last year's eleven for work
this season. With such a condition exist
ing tha contest will surely be close and

well played and tha public will hava a
chance to see some magnificent struggles.
Naturally, the two rival claimants for the
foot ball championship of 19"4. Tale and
Pennsylvania, loom up as the likeliest to
win the honcr this year. Each haa a nu
cleus of veteran players who will be able
to. nil nearly all the positions on the team
and with the strong substitutes from last
season and the material which each ex
pects with the Incoming class the coaches
will apparently have little difficulty In
turning out formidable elevens. Should
both of these colleges go through the sea
son without a defeat, and It is probable
that they will, tho championship would
once again remain In doubt. It is unfor
tunate that they do not meet In a contest,
for deciding the championship by compar
ative scores Is a sorry business at best.
Harvard, the down-trodden of the last
few years, will undoubtedly come to the
front in foot ball lore. It, too, has a
strong nucleus to work from and with
many defeats to avenge will play a strong
game with It more successful rivals. At
Princeton the same favorable condition
holds. The New Jersey men have the
making of a powerful aggregation In the"
gridiron game. At Cornell there will be a
l.. r,f u.inn material for Coach
Warner to start on, but, although the men
are experienced, they are not fully up to
the standard of that at the colleges pre
viiii mentioned. The men lack the
! main esaentlal-welght. The prospects are.
however, more encouraging than tnose oi
Inst year. Columbia will apparently have
the shakiest eleven that has ever repre
sented It. There Is not any material wonn
speaking of from last year, and this,
coupled with the fact that the schedule
which It will be called upon to play Is an
unusually hard one, makes it difficult to
see anything but defeat for the Blue and
White aggregation.
Of the smaller colleges Dartmouth and
Williams have good teams. They will both
have a good allotment of veterans and ex
pect a number of stsrs from the prepara
tory schools. Many expect to sea Dart
mouth repent her victories over the larger
colleges. Her games with Harvard and
PrinKBinn hflve aIwsvs been close, hard
fought battles, and the New England men j
have walked away with a good snare oi
the glory.
Despite the many rumors oi (
In the foot ball rules they are practically ,
the same as In lfr. The essential feature
will be the more strict enforcement. It Is
figured that this will remove from foot i
ball the objectionable features which have j
caused many peopl to decry the game as
brutal. The play will not be any more open j
than last year, but the mass plays will be ,
stopped as soon as the forward progress of ,
the ball has come to an ena. i nis win uj
away with the piling up of the men and
the stealing of the ball. The penalties will
be severe for all offenses against the rules,
and thus rough tactics will have to be
eliminated If a team I to have any success
whatsoever.
The gridiron campaign will be a longer one
than usual this year, for the reason that
Thanksgiving day falls on the last day of
November, and Thanksgiving day Is usu
ally the flnai day of the season for the col
leen elevens. Th.re will be one more big en
gagement after that, the Army-Navy game,
which this year comes on Saturday. De
cember 1. The campaign will be ushered
tn by a few games beginning today (Sep
tember 16), and will continue for eleven
weeks, with games on Wednesdays and
Saturdays. Last year Thanksgiving came
earlier in November than this year, which
meant a shorter season and consequently
less time in which teams might build up
and develop for their Important contests.
The result wa that there had to be more
or less hurrying to shape the eams into
form. It is not unreasonable to expect.
therefore, that with more time to devote
to the very Important procedure of picking
men and welding them into a team the
climax of the season will find teams or ,
better rrade than last season. This. Of
course, provided the material is adequate.
The schedules for the approaching season
show that there are to be 248 games In the
eastern college circle and 144 in the west
392 In all. That Is a good deal of foot ball.
It shows how tremendously the game has
spread, and will give the devotees of the
sport a rich and varied program of pigskin
battling. Of all the teams the Carlisle In
diana are the most extensive travelers.
The bigger teams such as Harvard, Tale,
Princeton, Pennsylvania, Columbia and
Cornell make only two or three trips from
home, and these are short trips. Therein
they have an advantage over the smaller
fellows. . The larger colleges play nearly
all of their games on their own home
grounds, they being the bigger attractions
and hence being able to hive most of their
opponents to come to them. West Point
and Annapolis travel less than other teams,
playing every game but one at home. The
schedule for the Indians this year shows
that they play Harrlaburg, Richmond,
Philadelphia, Cambridge, Cincinnati, Pitts
burg and Washington, as well as at home.
Doubtless they plan out many a play to
the music of the rolling oar wheels. In
the west they make even longer Journeys,
For Instance, the Notre Dame (Ind.) eleven
makes a trip to Madison, Wis., and the
University of Nebraska eleven makes a
Jump from Lincoln to Ann Arbor, Mich.,
for a single game.
The Western college conference rule
barring freshmen from participation in
'varsity foot ball seems likely to lack en
dorsement by Nebraska universities. A
gam will be played thla season with
Minnesota, which is under the conference
rule, and the suggestion waa made that
Nebraska adopt the same prohibition against
freshmen. The idea was well received at
first, but there haa sprung up a strong
sentiment against the adoption of the rule.
Captain Berg, Assistant Coach Westover
and Physical Director Clapp are all known
to be opposed to the adoption of such a
stringent check on the development of a
foot ball team, and It Is probable that the
athletic committee will refuse to ratify It.
WITH A REPUTATION
BARS, CAFES AND
STORES
If the rule fails of passage It Is what the
attitude of the University of Minnesota
towards the local university will be.
The Carlisle Indlnn school has opened
Its preliminary work In foot ball for the
coming season with a larger number of
candidates than has ever before been sen
at this stage of the season. In addition to
the coaches there were thirty-seven In
dians out. The men who appeared for
practice were In good shape physically,
many of them having Just come from the
Industrial shops at the school or from the
work which Is provided for them In th
surrounding country hy the school out
ing system. Coach Woodruff Is constantly
drilling the candidates up and down the
field with the Idea of finding their wind
snd condition. The redskins showed ab
solutely no fatigue at the first practice,
but ran off the field with a vigor that
amaxed the onlookers. Not a man has
since suffered In the slightest from stltT'n
Ing. It Is thought that the Eskimo,
.Nlklfer flchouchuk, may return to Carlisle
soon, and, with the addition of C.
Kennedy, Carlisle will be well flxed at
center. The practice so far ha consisted
entirely of efforts to familiarise the candi
dates with handling the ball and an at
tempt to develop a punter.
Considerable doubt surrounds the ability
of Coach Tost to organise another winning
foot ball team for Michigan. Even at Ann
Arbor this question exists and reports are
that those who believe Mr. Tost cannot
capture another championship this year are
as numerous as those who believe he can.
He Is said to be up against the proposition
of his life and to realise something of the
strnlts he Is In, but the man with "the
smile that won't come off" does not for a
minute admit his Inability to perform the
task before him. He Is going about It with
all the teal that has previously character
ized his work and may come out of the
predicament better than his friends now
fear. Tost has, however, made one conces
sion and that Is that he cannot replace Hes
ton, the star halfback of the foot ball
world. Carter, the great guard, Is another
missing man whose place cannot be filled
this year. It Is because of such deficiencies
as these that makes, "Hurry T'p" Yost's
task a formidable one. Tost has the conso
lation, however, of knowing that other
teams are prety much in the same fix and
that after all, relatively, he may be able to
get together as good a team as he has had.
This situation In the western foot ball
world Is arousing great anxiety. Admirers
of the game are asking themselves tho
question: "Is It going to be necessary for
us to witness a lower standard of ball this
year than usual T"
Not the least Interesting feature of Hurry
up Yost's book Is the collection of crisp
paragraphs In the way of advice to the
players that the author refers to , as
"hurry-ups." He says the players should
hurry up and
Be the first to line up.
Get Into every play.
Be the first man down the field on a punt
or a klekofT.
Help your own runner with the ball;
never let htm go It alone.
Follow the ball; no one can play the
gnme unless he Is with the ball all of the
time.
Fall on every fumble, either by your own
side or an opponent; this Is very im
portant. Block your man hard when you should
block.
Learn the signals; you cannot play a
fast game unless you known them In
stantly. Learn to control your temper; If you
cannot do this you had better quit the
game.
Do as your trainer and coach advise: If
you know more about the game than they
do It Is time for you to quit.
Be versatile: do not be a machine player
In vour Individual position.
Tackle the runner; don't expect anyono
else to do it; see to It that you throw him
towards hi own goal.
Colonel A. R. Kuser of Eernardvllle, N. X,
an enthusiastic automobllist, who owns
three machines, seems to think that the
motorists themselves, through their reck
less driving, are largely responsible for the
feeling of hostility toward them whl?h pre
vails In the rural districts. He says: "I
greatly lament the evil repute Into which
automoblllng has fallen. I ride from fifty
to 100 miles every day and am familiar with
the evil a well as the pleasures of the ex
ercise. The numerous horrible accidents
that have lately occurred In different parts
of the country, the frequent killing of ani
mals in the roads and highways, the dare
devil speed that aome reckless drivers of
these machines seem to glory In showing
hav all tended to embitter the public mind
against them and to suggest measures of a
drastic character. That Is what automo
blllsts must expect unless they take mat
ters In hand and provide remedies that are
reasonable and at the same time effective.
Two point have occurred to me in tha
framing of a law. First, only licensed per
sons should be allowed to run automobile.
They should be required to pasa an exami
nation by experts and to secure a license
under state authority. This seems to me
would tn many states strike at tha root of
existing evils. In the second place I think
the automoblllsts should be required to pay
a moderate yearly license fee. The amount
of this fee should be graded according to
the sise of the machine. A sixty-horsepower
machine should pay six time as
much as a ten-horsepower machine. The
revenue derived from this license should be
made a special fund for the repair of publlo
roads."
Many of the details for the coming auto
mobile show at Madison Square Garden
were settled at a recent meeting of the
board of manager of the Licensed Auto
mobile Manufacturers. Instead of having
the exhibit scattered about Indiscrimi
nately on tha various floor It haa been de
cided to classify them so that a visitor may
learn quickly just where certain type can
be seen. Gasoline and steam car will be
on the main floor, electric vehicles in the
restaurant, commercial vehicles and bodies
In the basement and motors and accessories
in the galleries. An effort 1 being madt to
hav tha tire maker exhibit together in
the concert hall. The final allotment of
space will not be mad until the next meet
ing of the association. Ths meeting of the
trades committee of the A. L. A. M. and
representatives of the National Association
of Automobile Dealers, organised at Buffalo
recently, did not result In any understand
ing. The elimination trials to pick the flv
cars snd drivers who will represent Amer
ica in the Vanderbllt cup race are to be
the same distance as the hlg contest, and
In both Instances the turns will be made
to the left. The course as laid out. be
tween twenty-eight and twenty-nine miles,
Is being chain measured to determine Its
exact distance. On September 23. the elimi
nation trials day. and on October 14. the
date of the big race, the cars will have to
complete ten full circuits before finishing
the race. The entrants in the elimination
trials must name the drivers of the cars
in advance, and the names of the drivers
of foreign cars must be made known to
the Autuomobile Association Hariris Board
by October t The cars are to be sent
away at Intervals of one minute In both
contests. The regular rules of the road.
Issued by the American Automobile asso
ciation, are to be enforced In regard to
overtaking competitors. These rules are:
"Keep to the right when overtaken; (2)
Keep to the left when overtaking." Con
testants "must not speed over the course
at any time, and Chairman Morrell of the
American Automobile Association Board
has been empowered to punish anyone
who violates this rule. They will only be
allowed on the course with their racing
cars between the hours of 12 o'clock, noon,
and 2 o'clock In the afternoon, and then
the cars must be fitted with mufflers.
A rumor to the effect; that the price of
gasoline will be raised In the Immediate
future has caused some stir and quite a
little discussion among automoblllsts. A
recent Interview with the departmental
head of the largest producing corporation
In the world reveals no cause for alarm.
There Is now on hand a greater supply of
motor gasoline than at a corresponding
tlmo last year. On May fl) last the whole
sale price was reduced to 12 cents per gal
lon. A point not generally known to the
average consumer Is that only certain
brands of crude oil will produce gasoline,
which Is known to the trade at various de
grees of density si naphtha. The Texas
and California oil yields no naphtha and
the bulk of the supply In this country
comes from Ohio and Pennsylvania.
Bowling starts In ull blast tomorrow
night at the Association alleys on Harney
street and, barring accident, will proceed
without Intermission for twenty-eight
weeks. The schedule is published on this
page for the first round of seven weeks
and four rounds will be played, making a
championship series of twenty-eight weeks.
Interest in bowling Is keener than ever
before and all of the old war horses. In
cluding H. Dinger Reed, Bower McCague
and Bill Wlgman, have been dally prac
ticing for the Initial performances. Not
only have the Individuals been practicing
up, but the players have been practicing
by teams, so that some sort of a line can
be obtained on the piny of the teams In
the race. The rail birds say that the race
will be much more even than It was last
year when some of the teams were so
much stronger than the others. They even
prophesy that a blanket will cover tha
leaders and the tallenders most of the
way through the season. The two weak
teams have been dropped and no one can
pick the strong toam.
There Is no other topic of conversation
In bowling circles except the league and
until that Is fairly under way nothing else
will be considered. The teams have been
changed around until at present they are
all commercial teams that Is. they all
represent some commercial house. The
Waverley have been changed to the
Cudahya and the Council Bluff team to
the Benos. While some do not like this
Idea so much it assures the teams 'of good
backing, to say the least. Women are
taking more of an Interest In the bowling
game than ever before and the alleys are
practically turned over to the women folks
each morning. Some of these women are
becoming quite proficient as bowlers and
can vie with their stronger brother in
rolling the heavy balls.

The nation ha every reason to be proud

for the promotion of rifle practice, to
gether with the National Rifle Association
of America, which works In harmony with
tha national board, should be highly grati
fied at tha magnificent success of the rtile
tournament at Bea Girt. The national
board for" the promotion of rifle practice
was the outcome of a concerted movement
by a handful of enthusiasts who recog
nised the decadence of the art of shooting
in America, due to the disappearance of
game and the fact that an Incentive must
be provided to stimulate popular Interest
in a sport on which so much of the na
tlon's welfare depends. Basing their plea
on tha proposition that a soldier on tha
firing line Is valuable only In proportion
to hi ability to hit the mark, the friends

the War department was to hav charge

Shoes May Be Higher.
There Is every indication, says the Boston
Transcript, that as time goes on prices of
shoes will advance rather than recede. It
was announced some time ago that prices
this fall were to be In excess of the sum
mer rates, or a cheaper grade of shoe- would
be offered at the old price. At once a pro
test went out against a poorer shoe; the
people wanted a better shoe, even, than
that on the market. This left but one
course open to the manufacturer, since he
was pursued by the relentless leather t;1 li
ner, who. In turn, was beset by the still
more heartless dealer in hides, both asking
higher prices, and that course was to ad
vance the price of shoes to not less than
W.60 for those which had been selling 10
per cent cheaper. The customer being ap
prised of the fact was satisfied, but the
dealers thought differently. For a time
they continued to demur, but they have
been coming to see that there was no al
ternative, and an unusually large business
has been done. Factories are crowded with
orders, and during the last month or six ;
weeks rnuch business has been placed.
Those buyers who delayed, hoping that ,
there might be a drop, are now in the mar-
ket, convinced that all hopes of placing
their ordeis on lower terms are but Idle '
dreams. The cost of manufacturing con
tinue to Increase. No. 1 hides in Chicago
are quoted at 13V4 cents, the highest mark,
and the demand for leather has continued
to be strong. With such conditions ob- j
talnlng the future of prices can not be any ;
less, at present, with a strong possibility
of their reaching U before they go any
lower.
This Is the situation which I beginning
to prevail In the large shoemaking centers.
Manufacturer In Brockton are watching
the prospects with some uneaslnesB, ma
terials are Increasing In value; tha publlo
are demanding better shoe. The cost .of
shoes has Jumped already from $3 to 13.60,
and so the higher price must come. Al
ready a number of large manufacturers are
considering the desirability of advancing
the price of shoe in the retail store which
they control to $4.
8hould this advance be made It doe not
follow that all S3.S0 shoes would be taken
off the market. They will be made and will
be In spring stocks, but the M shoe will be
advanced as fast a possible. It would be
a good shoe, better than the S3.60 one, and
the Intention will be to make It more pop
ular on that account. At the same time,
the retailer would be given a greater mar
gin for handling his goods. The future
months will settle the question.
The indications continue to Increase that
next year will be known as "Color year,"
for manufacturers aeem to have laid their
plans for shoes of all possible colors. For
men the field of color is limited, but there
will be black, brown, russ?t, tan, cham
pagne, white, which are all reasonable
enough. The spring designs produced by
manufacturers Include in men's wear black
russla, white buckskin, morocco in various
colors and colored canvas. Among the
freak lasts are to be found those for pointed
toes, and having straight insldes, tha out
side having a pronounced swing, full ex
tension sole will be used. Large eyelet
will be in most shoe.
For women's wear some agents art show
ing snappy designs of oxfords, gibaons,
pumps, Dutch straps and other slippers In
Alice blue, champagne, canary and other
delicate tints. A new wrinkle will be can

No need of cutting off a woman's breast

womb, mouth and stomach, large tumors,

diseases, are all successfully treated by
the application of various forms of sooth
ing oils.
Dr. Bye says: "Chancer Is a curable
disease, I have proven this to he a fact
in many thousands of coses. It Is not
curable by means of the knife, but by
the Combination Oil Treatment, which
not only destroys the life of the Cancer

vestige of poison from the system. I can
assure any sufferer, whose cqse I accept
that the result of my treatment will be
successful. Cases given up by other phy
