styles of the two nlavera wiire diame
trically opposed and the match resulted
In a close and Interesting contest. Dema

the gritty play of the title holder. Dcma
rest drew ahead early In the contest with
runs of forty and thlrtj-one In tho first
five innings. '
By the -steadiest kind of play Conklln

STATEHOOD BILL PROnABI.Y DEAD
strong Indications that It Will Be
Burled In Committee.
WASHINGTON, March 13.-There are In.
dlcatlons that the statehood bill may be
referred by Speaker Cannon to the commit
tee on territories. This action, the friends
of statehood for 'Indian Territory fear,
will entirely defeat the measure The com
mittee can retain the bill Indefinitely and
should it appear that there are "Insurgent"
votes enough to concur with the senate,
the bill would not, they say. be brought In
the house. '.
Under the rules, of the house a senate
amendment to the house bill which changes
the charge n the treasury, sends the bill
to committee, automatically. The amend
ment In question Is one granting lieu lands
to the state for school purposes in case
sections U and 33 reserved In each town
ship should prove to be mineral lands.
Although the bill goes to committee with
out a motion In the house, it is still on the
speaker's table. ' Vnless some member in
sists that the reference be made at once
the plan is to defer the reference until the
return of members who have gone south
on a river and harbor Inspection tour.
This delegation will return Saturday. An
agreement w;is made before they left
whereby nothing was to be done with the
statehood bill until their return...
The news that the bill was to go to
committee, which, leaked out today, was
somewhat -disconcerting to the "insur
gents," who have been bending their ener
gies to strengthen their numbers in the ex
pectation of a direct vote on the motion
to concur In the senate amendments. If
some way had not been discovered to send
the bill to committee this motion to con
cur would have been In order and would
have taken precedence over a motion to
disagree and go into conference. Just how
the "insurgents" are to meet the new sit
uation has not been decided upon so far as
can be ascertained.

Rear Admiral Sands became superinten

der Is also censured mildly for having
countenanced hazing.
Graduated punishment for haslng is rec
ommended by the subcommittee, which is
firmly of the opinion that the present sys
tem of expelling all midshipmen found
guilty of basing Is vicious. Rear Admiral
Sands and other officers now at the acad
emy are praised for the discipline they are
maintaining, and the report shows that
cadet officers have been Chiefly responsible
for hsxlng.
As result of Its examination of witnesses
and records the subcommittee found that
SI members of the three upper classes at
the academy. Including the class which was
recently graduated, have been guilty of
hating and on trial could be expelled from
the academy. The result would be a great
and unnecessary loss to the government, in
the opinion of the members of the commit
tee, who found thst many of the offenses
were trivial.
The report makes It clear that a failure
of oadst officers to perform their duties
makes It impossible for naral officers in
charge to maintain discipline and de
nounced the code of honor which permits
cadet officers to shun their duties. The
committee savs the present system of
niaintaing order is correct, but urges that
officers In charge shall, be more active In
reporting violations and shall be careful to
report all knowledge of violations which
they do not actually see. Aecording to

and station agents of the Southern rail
way last night, agreed to accept the wage
scale of that road. The wage scale as de
cided on dues not contemplate a minimum
or maximum wage, but has been adjusted
with a view of fitting each individual case.
In announcing the fact that a setllomeut
had been effected, II. IS. Perham, president
of the Order of Railway Telegraphers, said:
The committee representing the telegraph
ers and station agents is very well suiistted
with tne scale agreed on. While some of
the employes have grown a little impa
tient since the negotiations were opened
with the Soul hern on December 7, those
having uireut charge of lUu matters, , know
ing the immense amount of wora-necessary
beiore an acceptable scale couid be agred
on, have nothing but words of praluu (or
the. ottlcials of the Southern.
This is the first suheOuie that -has ever
been put In eftect on the Houtliern, and it
was necessary for the conlerence tu begin
af the bottom.
The wage scale as agreed on wU t)e per
petual, unless a change is desueu, and
then notice of thirty aaya is required be
fore any action can be taken.
As there was no maximum or minimum
scale fixed, it would, of course, be impos
sible for me to state Just what the in
crease in wages will amount to. In fact.
In such cases we prefer that such informa
tion should be given out by the company.
Hut from the tact that the committee la
satisfied, you can easily draw the conclu
sion what substantial increases have been
granted solely on individual merit.
II. B. Spencer, general manager of the
Southern railway, when Informed the com
mittee had accepted his proposals, stated
that the schedule submitted by the com
mittee had for its object the general re
adjustment of wages along the entire
SouUiern railway lines.

gMfHTTTrrTrTTffllirt We have observed the terrible blighting influ
ences of abuses and indiscretions in the young and middle-aged; sapping the
vital forces; undermining the foundations of manhood; clouding the brightest
minds and destroying all noble thoughts and aspirations; family circles dis
rupted and the poisonous fangs reaching out and blighting even succeeding
generations.
There are thousands of partially and totally wrecked constitutions among
young men today from abuses and Indiscretions In early life. Their weakened
vitality, shattered nerves and exhausted energies tell a pitiable story. Mul
titudes havo brought upon themselves the horrors of a life-long dlease or
weakness through excess, abuses and unnatural drains, which sap the very
foundation ot life, destroying their health and strength, leaving them a
mental, physical and sexual wreck.
Are you one of the many thousands of WEAK MEN, and do you wish to
be cured? We have devoted many years exclusively to treating this class of
troubles, attended with the greatest success, and we are thus ensbled to give
