tar In the galaxy which hone forth at
Vtnton atreet park Wednesday afternoon
at the Opening ff 'he exhibition gme
when Whtngton trimmed the tribe of
Rourke tD the tune of '.0 to 2 In a game
which had real merit, considering that It
wt the flrat game of the eeason. Willie
blew In Just before the opening of the
game, wearing a gren eweater and a
toe clip,.' and told Captain Franc that
be was t pitcher and a foot racer. He
was given a chance to break Into the
gama In - the aeventh Inning, after Va
blnder had been cracked on the ahlna by
Keeley. Willie 1 a wonder. He bad no
aooner reached the left gardn than big
Pickering knocked a high fly In hi direc
tion. Ha motioned for Belden to come and
get It, and when he nw there wa no
chance for that he aaanyed the attempt
all by hlmaclf. The ball wag muffed and
Willie do not atand ao well with Captain
Franck.
Omaha fana had the double opportunity
Wedneeday of seeing Ta a new recruit In
action, and alao of aeelng the elars of the
Washington American league team at
work. Hughes and Walter Johnson both
took a turn at pitching, and while they
did not extend themaelven. they gave evi
dence of . being poaaesaed of the real
gooda.
Tracy Johns, a big southpaw, almost as
big as Jack Pfelster. atarted to twirl for
Omaha, and right well he behaved agalnat
such noted athletes and before such a
large crowd. During the four Innings he
worked ha allowed but three hits and
no runa. nd did not paaa nor hit a man.
RiUmann occupied the box during the
next three Innings ad was batted all over
the lot for nine hits. Rulo Jarrott was
trotted out for the last two innings.
Downs wa the first man to face him,
and knocked tha ball so It bounded over
the middle field fence for a homer and
wY Johnaon followed with a single, but
that was all they got.
Hew Men Look Good.
The fans were well pleased with some of
tha new talent which Pa presented for the
first time In Omaha. Smith the ul.lllty ln
flelder from the east, played short and took
nine chances without a wobble. Vasblnder
made good with the manngement. and also
looked good to the fans. He takes the
position cf a real batsman and is fast. A
pitched ball put him out of commission in
the sixth .Inning. Pendry did not have a
chance to aliow what he could do In the
fielding line except In practice, for Joe
Cantlllont big. fellow did pot knock the
balls In his direction. Red Fisher played
the bench, as he is a little sore from the
hard work which Captain Franck has been
putting the boys through. IaBrand has

STATU OF PI, A VER HENDERSON
National Commission Rales Former
Ontlnw Belong; to Cleveland.
CINCINNATI. March 31. -The National
Rase Rail commission today announced the
following ruling:
Attention is called to the published claim
that the Cleveland club has secured the
services of Player J. B. Henderson of the
outlaw Stockton club, and that In return
they tranaferred two players to the Hort
Isnd club of the Pacific Coast league for
his release. The Boston club claims that
title to this player Is vested In It.
An agreement has been filed with the
commission by the Cleveland club whereby
they release Players Graney and Breen to
the Portland club, the conslderstlon being
that the Cleveland club shall have the pick
of any player of the Portland club during
the season of Pt. and furthermore that In
the event that Pitcher Henderson Is roln
ststed Into organised base ball, that they
shall have an option on this pitcher's re
lease. This being a dispute between an
American league club and a National league
club, under the agreement the right to the
player shall be established by the chair
man of the commission without the aid of
his associates. . -
The evidence submitted shows the Boston
National league club negotiated for the
services of this player with the Portland
club In 1907, and that he was carried on
the Boston club's list for two years.
It appears, however, that the negotiations
between tha Portland club and the Boston
National league club for the release of the
player were, never closed.
It further appears that tha Boston club
was to secure the services of this player
for a tryout and that they were to give In
return aome consideration and the choice
of some players In the year following the
release of the player to the Boston club.
Had an agreement of thla kind been pie
sen ted to ths commission it would have
been rejected, because all minor lrigue
players are subject to draft unless they
are sold previous to August 20 of each
year. The finding of the chairman of the
commission Is that the Boston National
league club never secured title to this player
and their claim for his services are there
fore rejected. It Is evident hat the Port
land club takea the same view of this case
or they would not hsve entered Into the
agreement with the Cleveland club. This
latter agreement being In proper form was
spproved by the commission ajid the player
awarded to the Cleveland American league
club when the Ineligibility against the
player has been removed by the National
Base Ball association.

KENNEDY WINS FROM BOAKES
Revenge at Squash Ball Taken by
Omaban From Boakti 3 2.
GAME AT RACQUET CLUB FAST
thlraaro Fana tame Oaf With Pro
fessor Ronkea, Who Says ee4a
More Tryoata Before Meeting;
Kennedy A grain.
"Spike" Kennedy put It oer Prof. Henry
Rnakes of the Chicago Athletic club In
squash Wednesday afternoon. 3 to 2. The
melody was like this;
First gsnie, 10-15.
Second gsme. IS-".
Third game. 15-12.
Fourth game. 10-15.
Fifth game. 15-9
In spite of his 5 yesrs. "the old sport."
as he Joshlngly calls himself, put up a
stiff fight, and It looked like his match
the greater part of the time. However,
Rnakes tried to rvn "Spike," but Thomas
Frank wouldn't be run, much to the for
mer's sorrow,
"It wa a hard match," said the de
feated Chicaa-oan afterward. "Kennedy
steady, persistent work, his strong return
and his speed proved too much for me."
The match was merely an exhibition,
nd a return contest for the one Kennedy
played at Chicago with the professor
couple of months ago, when the score of
3 to 2 waa turned In favor of Boake. A
congenial bunch of club member and
their Chicago guest witnessed It on one of
the courts of the snug Racquet club.
Starting strong and with things appar
ently going Just as he pleaaed, Boake
easily won the first game of the match.
15-10. But Spike came back In the next
and trimmed him with an ease that at
first looked as If Boakes was Just play
ing possum, the score being 15-7.
Kennedy Doe the nasalag,
It waa feared that the local favorite
might ha.ve tough luck again with hi
hand, which failed him at Chicago by
developing a cramp.. However, Spike con
tinued to do things and won the third
game, 15-12. after a strenuous bsttle, the
Prof, waking up with a vim.
Coming back strong In the next set-to,
Boakes kept ahead till he passed the fifth
point, with Spike stuck at the one. but
the latter took a booat and after tying
him kept on going to 10 without giving
Boakea a look-in. The plav waa aa close
and clever as had ever been dished out
at the club's courts, back-and-forth chas
ing, with Kennedy doing most of the run
ning, characterizing the game, aa Boakea
was trying to make his opponent play It at
all times, but with only mediocre success.
During the game, a Chlcagoan shouted,
"A 31,nrm on Boakes," but the local corn
ing such paltry stakes, waited for some
thing big. But it didn't come, for with the
continuance of the smashing, pounding,
hammering gsme that was being played, It
began to look as If Rnakes didn't have
such a snap after all. The II. POO offer waa
not repeated, and there soon appeared
other signs of backsliding on the part of
the visitors.
Boakes kept up his wonderful style of
play, but he visibly weakened In the run
ning game and once In a while seemed to
give away a point or at least a swerve
when hard ' preened. Possibilities of vic
tory for Spike cheered the gallery to re
newed Interest. If such a thing were pos
sible with a lightning match already In
progress.
Boakea Snres Three Stralarhta.
Prof. Boakes finally pulled out of the
Impending defeat and won the fourth. 16-10.
thereby preventing his losing the match
by dropping three straight games. But the
last gams was tha masterpiece.
"Ixive all," was the standing until after
five or ten minutes of play, during which
Boakes graciously gave over his claim
to a point In order to prevent a wrangle
and kept on playing his Jovial, easy game,
so different tn Spike's sometimes almost
hot-headed style of squash.
"The old man's all right," shouted the
crowd, and Boakea showed his apprecia
tion by copping a few points and keeping
ahead of Kennedy until the marker had
moved nine of the little black squares oppo
site Boake' name, while Spike score
stood at 5.
Then came Spike' brace. Of H the
braces, an Irish spike would naturally
lead the show, but with a hollering bunch
of sports to back him, such a brace a he
put up Is not seen often.
First tying the score after getting the
serve, then passing on till the board read
14-10 In his favor, the braca took hint
with such sureness and speed that It rams
near being a margin of 8, by which he won.
But Boakes managed to get the aerve and
added another ! to his score before Spike
put the "ffxlns to the dope" and landed
the 15. Then maybe the fans didn't whoop
It up. Spike Kennedy had "did the deed."
and his defeat In the Windy City by the
professor Isn't felt so much now.
Mullin. of the' New York Athletic club,
referred the mstch and Sam Burns, jr.,
wss marker. The Chicago expert said
before he left for home last night, that
he's not used to mixing with squssh ball
men in big matches, so H1 need a few
more try-outs before he ran put It over
Spike.

Senate Knocks
Out Proposed
Duty on Coffee
Brazil Cannot Repeal Export Tax
and Syndicate Holds Four Mil
lion Bags for Rise.
WASHINGTON, March 31. -Recognising
that Brasil Is powerless to suspend Its ex
port tax on coffee, because for the next
several year thla tax Is Indlssolubly linked
with It foreign debt, the senate committee
on finance today decided to atrlke out of
the Payne bill the countervailing duty pro
posed. Members of the committee said today
that If the Payne provision to place a duty
on coffee imported from Brazil equal to
the export tax assessed by that country
la adopted the consumer would be com
pelled to pay the difference In cost. The
responsibility of such a result cculd not
be shirked. It wa said, and congress would
have to answer to the people for this
assessment against a necessity of life.
Incidentally, the senate committee Is seek
ing Information about the alleged Ameri
can syndicate credited with having 4,000,000
bags of coffee In storage to he held for
rise In price, which, It Is believed, will
Inevitably follow the passage of the Payne
bill In It present form. A member of the
committee said tonight that no fortunes
will be made by such a syndicate at tha
expense of the American breakfaat table
If the committee on finarce can prevent It.
It Is said that there are Interests now In
Washington promoting the movement for
a duty on coffee, or. falling In that, the
retention of the countervailing duly. A
member of the committee asserted that
tha committee I in the way of procuring
full Information as to the personnel of the
syndicate and he claimed that the move

The conditions and causes which produce Rheumatism all suggest a
healthful vegetable remedy as the surest and safest cure. The disease is
brought about by the accumulation of uric acid, an irritating, pain-producing
property in the blood. This causes a weakening and souring of the circula
tion which then becomes unfit for nourishing the body, while the deposits
of uric acid in the nerves, muscles, joints and bones produce the pain and
agonv of Rheumatism. To treat the trouble with medicines containing pot
ash or other strong minerals, is simplv adding another poison to the already
weak, diseased blood, sapping it of its remaining vitality, and perhaps in
the end making a physical wreck of the sufferer. The one safe and only cure
for Rheumatism is S. S. S. It is nature's remedy for this disease, made
entirely from healthful vegetable ingredients extracted from the roots, herbs
and barks of the forest and fields. S. S. S. goes down into the blood and
removes every trace of the cause of Rheumatism, cleanses and purifies the
circulation, and restores health and comfort to those who are suffering from
this painful disease. There is but one way to be sure you are not dosing
your system with mineral medicines, and that is to take S. S. S. Book on
Rheumatism and any medical advice free.
