row. The Class AA league teams, com
prising the American association, Eastern
league and, Pacific Coast league were
under consideration during the greater part
of the session, but action was deferred
until the playing schedule has been passed
upon.
President Comiskey was besieged during
the day by baae ball enthusiasts, who were
anxious ta know something of tha future
course of Fielder Jone.
"The mstter Is just as It was at the
close of last ' season." said President
Comiskey, "and while lv have not beard
from Jones. I arrl almost confident that be
will be back with ua when , the season
opens."
In spite of Comlakey's optimism it Is re
ported that William Aulllvan had been
slated to aucceed Jones as manager of the
tram, but neither Comiskey nor others sup
posed to enjoy. his confidence would verify
the rumor.- . - f .; -- .. .
atieaal Agreement Dlseassed.
In the short session held by the Na
tional com mission the nstlonal agreement
was the aole topic for discussion. While
no deflnate action was taken. It Is prob
able that the agreement will be amended
along the linea of the talk at Cincinnati
last month between the American associa
tion and the Eastern league.
. The Clasa AA leagues were represented
by President O'Brien of the American as
sociation and President Patrick: Powers of
tha Eastern league.
All friction appears to have disappeared
between the magnates. President Pulllam
of the National league haa announced him
self In favor of bringing to light all that
has been learned In connection with the
umpire-bribing story. Whether or no tha
special committee has learned enough to
warrant It in making a report calculated
to Interest the baseball public cajinot be
learned, the disposition of ths magnate
being to Ignore the matter until such time
as it has been brought officially to their
notice.
At tha session of tha National commission
tomorrow, W, Ft Bryan, of Wausau, Wis.,
will endeavor to interest that body in the
proposed placing of teams In Minneapolis
and 8t Paul. The projected Minneaota-
Wlsoonsln league I behind the movement.
Up to the present. President O'Brien of
the American, association has placed no
obstacle In- the way of the proposed new
league but he will reserve his Judgment

A dinner given tonight by President Pul
llam to the sporting writers of Chicago
newspapers resolved Itself Into a love feast
before tha banquet board had been cleared.
President Pulllam had been expected to
express himself on the recent utterances
of President Murphy, but when tha time
came for speech making he appeared to
reconsider his announced intention of say
ing things about his ancient enemy.
This occasion." "said Mr. Pulllam. "Is
too Joyous to permit of entering Into con
troversies and I have decided that what
ever differences may havs existed In the
past between baseball magnatea and my
self will be put aside for the time being,
at least"
Whether or not Mr. Pulllam wilt dlsous

Separate School Bill Threagh

SACRAMENTO, Ca.1.. Feb. 17.-An un
availing attempt was made late this after
noon In ths lower bouse of the legislature
to accomplish by amendment to an In
nocent looking achool bill, ths segregation
ot Japanese pupils In tb public schools. .
Its Intent' was to do practically the same
thing sought to b done In Assemblyman
Johnson's measure, that rscsntly caused
President Roosevelt to address the Cali
fornia legislature through Governor Gllletc.
The bill Under consideration was an act
to amend the political cod by "dtrmln
ing the number of yeara of Instruction In
ths dsy and eventng elementary schools;
determining the age pf admission to such
schools and providing for separate schools
for Indian, Mongolian and Chinese chil
dren." ...... , .
The amendment which was offered by
Assembly man Harry Polsley of Red Blurrs
was to insert the .word "Malay" after
Mongolian. This Vas declared by Assem
blyman Hackelt, who introduced the bill
and .objected to the amendment might
finally result In the exclusion of Japanese
children. The letter race he ssld, con
tended ' that they" wera ' Malays, not
Mongolians, aa had been the contention of
the San r'rancisco school board, when it
resolved two years ego to segregate chil
dren under the present lew.
Assemblyman Rutherford of Truck was
In the chair snd the house was disposing
of bills oa second reading, when tha amend
ment by Mr. Polaley came aa a shock to
thoee who recently stood by President
Roosevelt ' and Governor Olllett In their
fight agalnat the Johnson school segre
gation bill. A Messenger was dispatched
at ones In search of Speaker Stanton, who
hastened to the assembly chamber atd
aelsed ths gavel Just before the question
waa submitted (o a vole.
A roll call was demanded and until the
result was announced the speaker wore
an extremely worried appearance.
The amendment finally waa defeated by
a vot of 17 to 18.

. Any chronic ulcer shows an unhealthy suid impure tsondition o thg
blood. It is a diseased condition of the flesh at that particular apoV caused
and kept inflamed and irritated by a continual discharge into it,-of 'un
healthy matter from the circulation. No treatment can have any curative ef
fect except a medicine which will renovate the blood and entirely rwpove tha
cause. Salves, washes, lotions, etc., are sometime helpful in reduclDjr in
flammation, cleansing the ulcer, or perhaps lessening; the discharge, but auch
applications do aot reach the blood where the disease germs are located
and can never effect a cure. , S. S S. goes down into the 'circulation,
drives out all impurities and morbid matter, and by nourishing the flesh
with rich pure blood causes the place to heal naturally and permanently.
S. S. 8. does not make a surface cure, but by beginning at the bottom, and
rebuilding broken-down Itissue, and supplying healthful, healing qualities to
the blood, causes the place to fill in with new, firm flesh, while it steadily
but surely etlects a permanent cure. The ulcer can not exist when ; the
blood is pure, and S. S. S. will thoroughly purify the blood. , Book oa Sores
