Doc Shlvely and lilii little bunrh of class
V, magnates didn't do much to Ivrclval
ripedi eam's srhemes for consolidating the
Western league and the Weetern associa

the front and back of the story; tore away

president, laughed at Dick Cooley when

listened to an eminent gent from Wichita
while ho burned up the atmosphere telung
Ms hearers that Wichita and Topeka are
better ball towns, even with losing teams,
than Omaha and Denver and where dues
that leave the Western league, anyway?
and closed with a eattron statement that
the Western league couldn't raise money
enough to buy an option on Topeka, let

Just about settles It, and Omaha and Den
ver will not be allowed to get any nearer
the bush league class than they are at
present. Well, maybe we can stand It. We
ljave worried along for several seasons
without a Kansas town on the circuit, and
with class A ball, and it looks like we
ought to be able to lust a little while
longer without the class C article. It's a
little rough on l'erclval IMpedresim, though,

In Denver something like unto enthusi

will be a decided Improvement over the old
arrangement In many ways and will likely
renew the popular lnterect in the name In
Denver, especially as Tebeau promises to
give the Cirlszlles a team worthy of the
name during the coming season. Frank
Keloe Is devoting his attention to getting u
good bunch lined up for Pueblo and It Is
pretty certain he will make, the vest of
the league teams hustle during the sum

easy just now. During the week he went
to Brqther Jim's Hall county ranch with
Ills mother and put In a few days husking
pumpkins, just to keep his hand In. Bill
says he's for the simple life always, and
any old time ho gets out of the base ball
business. It's back to the farm without

I'apa Bill would rather study out plays
for a bunch of yearling Norman-Percheron
steers or a team of Plymouth Hock draft
hones than anything.
Omaha Is to again be given a touch, of
college life when tho Doane team comes
to town Thanksgiving day for the annual
season most of them will be large enouah
to afford all kinds of amusement for lo al
devotees of the rod and line. The past
season has given plenty of fprt lit the
Nulling line. Cut-Off lake lias been well
stocked with gamey bass, pickerel and
crapple. Most of these were recently put
Into the luUc, but by another season there
ought to be plenty of one to three-pounders
ready to take the lure. And there Is no
question but a one-pound bass can furnish
an Interesting Ave minutes to any anglor
with a light rod. A three-pounder, under
the condiUons at the lake, has about an
even chance to regain his liberty If he Is
taken on a fly rod, and many of them have
waged successful fights against some of
Omaha's expert anglers. Fly Ashing has
been gaining In favor with local anglers,
because of the excellent conditions for It
at the lake, and with this new supply of
bass coming on next season It ought to be
better than ever. For the more leisurely has tamed Itubo Waddell, the most ec-

fall of a ball toward the center of gravity
Is also very deceptive to the eye. When
pitchers threw the ball at fifty feet It kept
more on a straight line, and wide curves
were almost Impossible, as they didn't break

fifty feet better than he could at sixty. A

S. S. S. is not a new treatment for Catarrh ; it has been curing the disease, for mors
than fortylyears, and so universally successful has it been that it has won an establish -.1
place in the confidence of the people as a remedy for this disgusting, troublesome ai d
dangerous disorder.
Catarrh is not merely a stubborn or protracted cold, as some people seein to think ;
it 's a deep-seated and serious blood disorder, more generally affecting the body than any
oth.T disease. Hardly any part of the system is exempt from thc trouble; it attacks tl j
head, throat, stomach, bowels, kidneys, bladder, lungs and other members, and its effects
often completely break down and undermine the entire constitution.
This catarrhal condition is usually first noticed after the contracting of a col I.
The inner skin and tissues of the body become irritated and inflamed and secrete an u-v
"lealthy matter, which is absorbed into the blood; this foreign matter corrupts and diseasi s
the circulation, and as the blood goes to eviry nook and corner of the body the poisonous
matter with which it is loaded is deposited to set up inflammation and disease of tha
lifferent members. Catarrh has more disgusting and annoying symptoms than any othr
rouble. There is a constant buzzjng noise in the ears, a watery discharge from the
nostrils, headaches and pains in the eyes, stringy, filthy matter drops back into the throat,
equiring continual hawking and spitting, the breath has an offensive odor, slight fever
often accompanies the disorder, gradually the entire blood supply becomes tainted and dis
eased and the system completely disordered and upset. After awhile the kidneys and
ladder become affected, chronic Dyspepsia or
atarrh of the stomach develops, and the disease
settles in some vital place, generally the lungs,
because of the constant passage of poisoned blood
:hrough them, and Catarrh terminates in con
sumption, a hopeless and fatal disease.
Catarrh is usually worse in Winter, be
cause of the cold and dampness and suddenly
changing temperature, but it is in no sense a
lisease dependent on climatic conditions for its
development. Neither is it a trouble to be cured
with sprays, washes, inhalations and such treat
ment; these merely relieve the reflex symptoms
for awhile, but they are fanned into existence again
at the next exposure to unfavorable weather.i
As Catarrh is a deep-seated blood disease
the very best constitutional treatment is required
;o effect a cure. S. S. S. is the greatest of all blood purifiers, and is therefore the remedy
best fitted for the work of removing the cause and permanently curing the trouble. Forty
years of successful service have proven the worth of this great medicine in the treatment rf
Catarrh. S. S. S. is peculiarly suited as a remedy for this disease. It is made entirely of
healing, cleansing extracts and juices of roots, herbs and barks, without the least addition
of mineral medicines. S. S. S. goes down into the blood and removes the catarrhal matte r
and poison, and its gehtle acting vegetable properties strengthen and repair the diseased
membranes and tissues so that when the cause has been removed the entire system is leit
in a state of perfect health. S. S. S. also tones up the stomach and digestion, and acts as
a fine tonic to the entire system. S. S. S. has been curing Catarrh for more than forty years,
and what it has done in the past is a guarantee of what it will do in the future. It is not an
experiment, but a real "blood purifier tested by time, for blood diseases like Catarrh. Write
for our book which contains information about Catarrh, and ask for any medical advice you
desire. No charge for either. THE SWIFT SPECIFIC COMPANY, ATLANTA, GA.

The management 01 the Detroit base ball
nine has arranged a new plan for next
spring In the matter of early workouts.
There will ba no long, long grind In the
southland. Secretary Navon has arranged
for a brief stuy at Augusta and will then
scoot homeward. Tha pitchers will get
their workout at Hot Springs. "There's
practically no money nowadays in southern
exhibition games," declares Navon. The
south is tired of tha big leaguers. Th-iy
hava ceased to be a novelty. Clark Griffith
has arranged to send his squad to Atlanta,
where tha Naps trained last year. He beat
Lajole to It. and tha Napa will have to
move to Jacksonville. Like the Detroit
management, practically all other club
owners are seeking to shorten the southern
trip as much as possible. Comlskey will

Six of the leading uilllurd players In tha
country, who are in a class considerably
below the professional Class A, which is
composed of Willie Hoppe, George Slosson,
Jacob Schaefer and George Sutton, will
meet In a tournament for the lt-lnch, two
shots in, balk line championship of Amer
ica next week. Among those who are now
expected to enter the tournament are
Thomas J. Gallagher and Edward Mc
Laughlin of New York; Harry P. Cllne of
Philadelphia; Albert G. Cutler of Boston;
Charl-s Peterson of St. Louis and Al
Taylor of Chicago. Three or four names
will be added to this list. Among the prob
able entrants are William A. Bpink of
San Francisco; Leonard Howlson of Mont

players who have not won a world's cham
pionship for ten years are eligible, many
additional entries are expected, and In
order to weed out the Inferior talent and
thus prevent a long and tiresome schedule,
a committee has been appointed, consisting
of Thor.'.as Foley of Chicago; John J.
Murphy of Boaton. and Maurice Daly of
New York City to pass on the entries. The
tournament will begin on November 19, and

man living, maintains that rule makers
have been working on the wrong theory
since the foundation of our national game,
"The idea of moving the pitcher back to
give the batter an advantage was errone
ous In the first place." says the Iron Man.
"As an evidence of this, the minute they
moved us back the more effective we be
come. If they should move the pitcher
back to second base he would be harder to
hit than ever, provided his arm held out
long enough to get the ball over the plate.
A logical answer to this Is that the pitcher
should have been kept closer. Just, why
this fact should maintain Is hard to ex
plain, but In my opinion the long distance
gives the pitcher a better chanca to break
