MEW RBADY TO MAKE HHEDl'LRS
Joint Committee at Plttsbara; for
Thla Par pose.
PITSBL'RG, Jan. 24 Thomas J. Lynch,
president of the National league; Cnarli'
11. Ebbetts, president ot the Brooklyn club,
and Barney Dreyfuss, president of the
Pittsburg club, today held a conference
preliminary to the meeting here tomorrow
of the Joint schedule committee. The com
mittee includes. In addition to the three
named, President Ban Johnson of the
American league, Charles W. Somers of
Cleveland and J. Farrell of New York.
In today's talk among the throe National
league men, Barney Dreyfus sought to
convince Ebbetts that the public does not
want a 108-game schedule. Whether Eb
betts was convinced he would not say.
If the two leagues do not encounter any
serious obstacles, the stmnrlute meeting can
be completed In one day, but if the National
adheres to the long sc'.ieeule, there will be
complications that will delay the work.
The schedule committee do not make pub
lic the result of their work, aa each Is re
quired to report back to Its own league
next month, and the schedules are not In
force until each league cast six or more
vote for their adoption.
The Boston club Is on the warpath, ac
cording to reports from tne east, and Presi
dent John Dovey and Manager Fred Lake
may both come here to fight for Its sched
ule right. As Director John P. Harris Is
already on the ground, the three should be
able to hold their own against Messrs. Eb
betts, Lynch and Dreyfuss.
The Ht. Louis Nationals are also reported
to be complaining against the practice of
making a large number or conflicting dates
at St. Louis on Sundays. President Koblson
Is of the opinion that there never was any
good excuse for this at any time and abso
lutely none now that Detroit is playing
Sunday base ball.
The rules committee will also be In session
here, but It is not expected that the meet
ing will mnke any change of importance
In the rules.
President Ebbetts of the Brooklyn club
en Id later tonight that he had not changed
his mind about the 168-game schedule.
"The funs want it." he said, "and they
ought to have it."
President Ban Johnson arrived today.
He eald he hoped to see the National
league agree on the ' 154-game season, as
the Americans would do. Benjamin Shlbe
of the Philadelphia Americans and Fred
Lake of the Boston Nationals were late
arrivals tonight.

JIM RASE WILL BE 0, R.
Big First Baieman Not So Badly Hurt
as Reported.
WILL NOT LOSE SIGHT OF HIS EYE
'Itest
He'll Retsrs as Good
s He Left Von," Barney Drey
fas Write to Pa
Roarke. '
PITTSBURG, Pa, Jan. 23. W. A. Rourke,
President Omaha Base, nail Club: Trou may
rest assured Jim Kane will report to you
in the spring In as good condition as he
lert you last rail. He had a pretty bad in-
Jury In the basket ball game, but his eye Is
not lost and he will soon be in normal
shape. BARNEY DREYFUSS.
That message was received yesterday and
threw the Smoke House Into a riot of Joy.
Pa Rourke, be It sold, did not believe Kane
was hurt as seriously as reports Indicated,
but to satisfy himself and the Omaha ad
mirers of the big first baseman, he sent a
message to Barney Dreyfuss, president of
the Pittsburg world champions, asking for
accurate Information, and this is the result.
There was gloom In the camp of Omaha
when the news first came last week that
Kane was hurt playing basket ball and
might lose the sight of one eye. In which
event he would never play professional
base ball again. Now that this informa
tion Is found to have been wrong, there Is
more Joy than there wa gloom. Kane
made a great record at first and In every
other department of the game for Omaha
last year and became a prime favorite, al
though he worked his way to popularity
against a prejudice that unjustly set in
against him when he first came here from
the Pirates. He developed vastly during the
season, became the best pinch, hitter on
the team, stole bases with the best and
was up to every trick and turn, always
taking long chances that sometimes cost
him errors. But above afl he is not a rec
ord ballplayer.
Warm Battle
for Warships
Architects of United States Conduct
One to Get Work of Construc-
' tion ia This Country.
BOSTON, Jan. 24. Borne details of the
success of American naval architects in
winning away from the most famous for
eign firms the contracts for the two Dread
noughts to be bought by the Argentine Re
public were given tonight by Officials of
the Qulncy plant, which haa the contract
for both ships and has sublet one to the
company at Camden, N. J. The Argentine
government stipulated that one of these
ships should be built in the yards of some
other company than that of the contractor.
The award of this contract is declared to
be the outcome of perhaps the sharpest
and most prolonged competition ever made
for a big warship contract the foremost
foreign builders having failed to equal the
American prices. Twenty-five builders of
England, France, Italy and Germany took
part in the competition.
Nearly 90 per cent of the $22,000,000 to be
paid for the building of two Dreadnaughts
In American shipyards will go for labor
and only 10 per cent for materials.
Six Battleships
Make Speed Records
American Vessels at Guantanamo Go
at Face in Excess of Designed
Speed.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 24. Six battleships
of the Amerloan fleet at Guantanamo, In
command of Rear Admiral Schroeder, ex
ceeded the designed speed during full
power steaming trials the last week. They
Included the Connecticut, Minnesota, Kan
sas, New Hampshire, Idaho and Missis
sippi. The Information came in a wireless
dispatch, undated, to Secretary Meyer to
day and excited favorable comment among
the naval officers. The dispatch says that
the Connecticut exceeded designed speed
by more than one knot and the Minnesota,
Kansas and New Hampshire by more than
three-quarters of a knot yesterday. In full
power trials today the Idaho and Missis
sippi exceeded designed speed, but alt of
ficial reports 'have not been received.
Other features of the work, showing the
activity of the crews, are summed up by
the commanding officers. A number of
seamen and a battalion of marines en
camped ashore for a fortnight for small
arm target practice and drill. More than
4,000 men wh6 cannot swim are being in

month between Cortlandt Field Bishop,
president of the Aero Club of America, and
representatives of several large eastern

Wot edlnf Two Haadred Werda,
Are Invited from Oar Beedera,
The Knallsh Elections.
OMAHA, Jan. 22. To the Editor of The
Bee: Whenever a man undertake to In
form everybody concerning everythlnu It
I Inevitable that he will trip up many
times. Mr. Frederlo Hasklns, of course,
does. Let me correct an error of hi which
occurs In his article in this evening's Bee.
In It he makes the assertion that the
Church ot England is seeking to control
the public schools. Nothing could be much
farther from the truth. The contention of
English churchmen is that religious educa
tion In the public schools should be abso
lutely fair and impartial. They maintain
that every child shall be taught the re
ligion of Its parents, whether the child be
Christian or ,Jew; whether the child be of
church parents or of nonconformist Fur.
ther, they Insist that the child shall be
taught this by teachers who really believe
what they are teaching.
The late Parliament was overwhelmingly
nonconformist, and It has sought steadily
to enforce a system of religious education
which was odious to churchmen and which
It called undenominational. It failed In Its
purpose to do this, although it formulated
four education bills with this object In
view. One of Its bills passed in the lower
house, but it waa so obviously unfair that
the House of Lords rejected it. The other
three bills were withdrawn by the govern
ment Itself on account of the determined
resistance of lay churchmen and the clergy.
The archbishop of Canterbury and a ma
jority of the bishops entered Into a com
promise on the education question with the
nonconformist minister of education; but
the moment the terms of the compromise
became known It was absolutely repudiated
by the leading churchmen of England. Tha
bishops sulked and the bill was withdrawn.
The purpose of the ministry was to as
sault the Church of England In the re
ligious teaching Of the young. It stood
ready to make concessions to the Jews and
to an extent, to Roman Catholics; but it
was relentless to Anglicans.
The present election turned as much on
the education question as upon tariff re
form or the budget As the elections are
swinging the hold of the nonconformists
on the education question is gone. They
are already In a hopeless minority and can
only hold office by the grace of the Irish
nationalists, who are going to give their
support only In return for such legislation
as they Bhall demand for Ireland. The
liberals, as such, have no love for the
Irish, except as they may be able to use
them for their own purposes; and the na,
tionallsts have as little love for the lib
eral as they have for the unionists. If
the liberals are willing to accept office by
a coalition with tha nationalists, the latter
will turn when' out of office, unless they
obtain what they will demand In the form
of Irish home rule. Mr. Asqulth is not a
Gladstone and he is not at all likely to
swing the entire liberal strength for home
rule. He will hardly hold office for six
months as things are going. England Itself
is evidently going against him, and his
hold on public office will be more than
precarloUB If he has to depend upon the
grace of the nationalists to keep him In
it. The unionist may be a little better
off, but not much. ' If the liberals go out,
the unionists will take office, dissolve the
present Parliament and appeal to the coun
try with muoh better hope of success in
winning a clear majority than they , have
In the present electfon.
Manifestly., the ,'beral war cry against
the House Qf Lordshaa failed in England,
and the Scotch are not so eager for "down
ing the lords," tftodgh mainly liberal.

in every way. A great many blood medicines contain strong mineral
Ingredients which unfavorably affect the bowels, stomach or digestive sys

their Injurious action on the general health. 8. S. 8. is the one safe and
sure blood purifier. It goes into the circulation and rids the blood of every
Impurity or pollution. It strengthens the circulation and adds nourishing
properties to the blood and greatly assists in the cure of any blood disease.
