NEW YORK, Sept. 3.-The cable of the
Lawn Tennis association of England to the
United States Lawn Tennis association
and the Australian Tennis association, ask
ing if it would be agreeable to play the
English-American Davis Cup preliminaries
In this country centers attention unon
William A. learned, the six-times holder of
the sinftles championship. Will Lamed lead
the American team In Its matches here and
In Australia? That Is the question that
agitates the followers of the sport, as It
becomes evident that Larned Is the pivotal
point In the situation thjt has caused much
deliberation and discussion this season.
During the early rounds of the champion
ship at Newport there was no secret but
that Larned stood ready and willing to
make the ecrlflces necessary for the long
ourney to Australia for the matches for
the Davis cup. Then, from an entirely un
expected quarter came an objection. The
aged father of the veteran champion, past
his four score and ten years, signified his
unwillingness to part, from his son for the
five or six months - necessary for the
Journey. .. . .; . . . -t .' .
Those in close touch with . lawn tennis
affairs know -that without Larned. on1 It
there Is no chance o a team contesting
here or In Australia, for the cup this sea
son. He is the Key; to the, situation. As
captain - and directing -the; others -say,
Maurice E. McLoughlio, in whom' Larned
professes great 'confidence, "and. Thomas
C Bundy and Melville E. Long there is
thought to be bright prospects, .of the
Americans returning wffb the' cup. There
s the possibility of overcoming the parental
objection, and of this Dn James Dwlght,
president of the national association, was
sanguine, pinning his faith upon the return
of young Edward P. Larned from Mexico,
where he has been for some time.
Some Doubt Larned Supremacy.
Whether or not , Larned . stands far su
perior to many of the other players in this
country at this time Is regarded by some
as problematical. Thoee who question hi
position, while ready to admit hi years
of devotion to the game and wide exper
iences, refer to his ' record that, he has
never actually won the title In a match as
challenger to the champion. He stands &s
tha sole survivor of the old guard of lawn
tennis through having defended the cham
pionship against others who have worked
through long and fatiguing tournament.
'Undoubtedly Larned la regarded as the

EHLEE IN CHARGE OF BADGERS
Hew Athletic Director at Madison an
Kxoerlenced Man.
MADISON, Wis.. Sept S.-(Speclal.)-Ceorge
W. Ehler, the newly appointed
athletic director at the University of Wis
consin,1 will .arrive hers early this week.
According to word received here, his first
1m will be to get every undergraduate
Interested In some form or other of ath

which time he wa Identified with the

tled through the all-comers. "He Is a great
player and has ably sustained an enviable
reputation. Still, It must be remembered
that he first took the title in 1901 by the
retirement of the peerless Malcolm D. Whit
man. He successfully defended It the next
near against R. F. Doherty, the taller of
the two famous brothers, in as sensational
a match aa the Casino courts have ever
known.
"But in 1903 he was beaten by Hugh Law
rence Doherty with comparative ease. The
following jtear Holoombe Ward took the
championship, as Doherty did not cross the
ocean to defend. Beals C. Wright, In 1906,
won the title from Ward and In thl tourn
ament Larned was defeated by Karl H.

through. William J. Clothfer In turn sup
planted Wright, but he waa unable to de

ner of the tournament in 1907 Lamed again
became champion. In 190S he defended suc
cessfully against Wright and last year
agalnat his old rival, Clothier. It was the
same a year ago as a week ago Thursday.
Clothier and Thomas C. Bundy, respective
winners of their tournaments, met the
champion defender after hard and gruelling
piatches. and each was unable to sustain
the top flight of his game.
Hard Horn fur Challenger
"Anyone who scans the records of the
recent tournament may Judge for himself
a to whether or not the challenger Is
handicapped by his work through the tour
nament rounds before he faces the standing
out champion. It matters little whether
Wright or Bundy had gained the position
of challenger. Had Wright become chal
lenger he would have played a total of
eight matches, with twenty-two sets won
and seven lost, and a tally of 169 games to
his credit while his opponents would Ivave
won from him 116 games. That means a
long and fatiguing road to travel before
tlio champion la faced.
"The record for Bundy Is better than
that of Wright Insomuch It always shows
hlin to bu the superior player. Bundy, by
receiving a bye for the first round only,
piayed seven matches in tha tournament
proper, lie played a total of twenty-tour
seta, winning twenty-one of them. In
thesseis he won 14 games and lost eighty;
altogether a better percentage than the

NEW- YORK, Sept. 8. If reports drlftlns
down from New Haven can be believed
they do not think much at Yale of "new
foot ball's" very latest. Foot ball men
have been at New Haven from time to
time during the past fortnight and letters
have been received here. Judging from the
many opinions of Yale men this latest
twist of the rule revlsloner's mind simply
will not do. They point out It Is a weird
concoction of vaguely worded clauses, con
tradictions, absurd technicalities, with the
beet elements of foot ball eliminated, but
the danger element still present.
All In all Yale Is not very optimistic over
the outlook. A radical statement was to
the effect that the rules committee would
have to meet in mldseason and change the
code. It was explained that this step would
be necessary to prevent the big games from
becoming farcical. Other ranters cry that
the game will be a mess for the players and
worse for the public
Moreover, Yale will not make haste to
get her men out for early practice. As
usual the squad will report two weeks be
fore college opens.-
An Innovation Is at hand, however. In
that they will' Journey to Lakevllle, Conn.,
Instead of trotting out on the uncut grass
of Yale field. The men will report on
September 12. Practice will be 'held on the
grounds of Hotchklss school and. the squad
will be quartered In the dormotoiies there.
Two reasons caused the shift In the early
practice scene. One is that cooler quarters
are obtainable at Lakevllle; the other that
the management wishes to save the Yale
gridiron as much as possible. Lakevllle 1s
situated In the highest part of the state.
The players will be able to do more cross
country work, including mountain climbing,
than was possible at New Haven. Then,
preliminary practice at Yale field always
cuts up the gridiron so that the task of
putting it in shape for tlie big games is a
hard one.
It Is reported that the squad will return
to New Haven on September 26. Yale opens
the season with Wesleyan ' the following
day. This, tpo. is odd, for college does not
open until September 28, and special faculty
permission had to be secured for the
Wesleyan game.
Walter Camp has returned to New Haven
and Is busy mapping out Yale's strategic
game. In this phase of the work he will
be helped by George Foster Sanford, who
used to teach Columbia men how to play
foot ball. Sanford will be with the team at
Lakevllle. Head Coach Edward Harris
Cop Is In Wisconsin, Backfleld Coach
Harry Holt In Michigan and Captain Fred
Daly In Canada.
Larned haa grown to be the popular Idol,
and his playing In so finished a, style and
masterful manner Is an attraction In itself.
The advatage of the standlng-out champion,
who comes fresh to the match, Is evident
and certainly was due to those who wit
nessed the recent playing of Bundy. It
makes little difference whether Larned or
some other stands In the place of the cham
pion; the conditions are the same."
The views expressed by the player have
frequently been discussed In recent years.
It has led to the metropolitan championship
and the New York state championship be
ing established upon the newer system of
the "playing through" method, by which
the champion Is required to enter the wune
as any other competitor and play through
succeeding rounas of the tournament. By
this method It Is the survival of the fittest
and the winner has proved ably over the
field his qualifications as champion. The
only championship in which Larned has
played through in reeent year Is the metro
politan held during July. That series re
vealed the fact that the continuous playing
was tiresome to him, for his right leg, that
had before given him trouble, went wrong
In the semi-final against Carlton R. Gard
nor, so that the championship round against
Gustave F. Touchard had to be postponed
The same leg gave him trouble In the West
chester doubles a year ago, u that he was
compelled to retire.
England Holds Old System.
It la Improbable that so long aa Larned
la willing to defend at Newport any change
will be made despite the agitation. Eng
land holds to the old system, so why not
America? At the close of the Newport j
meeting Larned stated that he would con
tinue to defend the title until a champion
had been developed to defeat him, the state
ment being called forth by the faot that
Larned captured outright the two cups, the
two-year Casino trophy and the three-year
association cup, so that new prises must
be provided another year. The provision
of a day of rest Intervening before the chal
lunger meets the champion, or of arranging
the tournament upon the "play through"
baia, has been discussed at the annual
meetings of a national association, but
without result. Nor Is there any prospect
of an immediate change.

Pa Rourke and his team came home from
their most successful trip of the season, j
1 he welcome extended the Rourke family ;
on this occasion Just goes to show that we j
l:ke m a little bit better when they are
winning. When they were losing game after
game as fast aa they could be played, we
liked them, but we wanted to spank them.
Now It Is different. When a team can go
Into Denver and grab off two games out ,
of four with the Grlsslies braced as they
are for a terrific finish fight for the rag.
and then go down to Wichita and repeat tne ,
trick In the face of Isbell's home faction, l
It Is a sign that the team is going some. 1
I Pa's boys surely made a good showing on ,
this expedition, and, by the way, they have '

two games they have played, which Is a
pretty fair clip for a middle division
bunch.
Team In Good Condition.
Just now things are in the best
condition for base bull they have been all
season. The pitchers are working well,
and the team is putting up a grand game
behind them. Batting like fiends, fielding
like phenotns and running bases like wild
men, they are simply showing class of the
kind that delights the fan. Skipper Bill
Is marching around as proud as a peacock
because the showing the bunch has made,
and he promises that the next few games j
at nome win oe oi me son urn win u

First of all comes Lincoln, and the
Rourke family feels that it simply must
have four games straight In order to get
even with the Despaln crowd for the rough
handling the last time they met. Saturday,
Sunday and two games on Labor Day
take up the four with Lincoln; Then comes
Des Moines for four, and after that Topeka
for a series transferred from the Kansas
capital, if possible, a postponed game with
Topeka will be pluyed off, making a
double header for Sunday. This series will
go a long way toward helping Omaha up
another notch In the standing, for while
It Is being played, Wichita 1 to have
trouble of It own.
Draft No Surprise.
The drafting of Schoonover and Rlggert
was not a surprise to Pa, for he knew that
Boston was after Rlggert and Brooklyn
after Schoonover, but the lot decided that
Rlggert must go. It will be tough to lose
him, and yet the big leagues are clamoring
for more power in the mutter of draft,
in order that they may control every
player of promise in the whole country.
The talk of refcrm In the draft , law at
the coming session of the' National as
sociation will probably take a turn a little
different from what the magnates think,
for men who have their money invested in
Class A teams are getting a little sore on
the way the big fellows are closing in on
all ' the available material. It Is not the
desire to prevent any young player from
getting his chance to enter fast company,
but It is to break up the practice of allow
ing the big leagues to control all the good
players and prevent such deals as we have
suffered In days gone by. A few season
ago we saw Schlpke taken away in the
prime of his usefulness by Washington and
sent back to play at Des Moines. This sea
son we have the spectacle of Red Fisher
being grabbed by 6t Louis and sent back
to play with Denver. Other canes might

to be from Council Mutia to Sioux City,
and the purse to the winner will contain
I&00. It will be run on September 24. which
will be automobile day at the Interstate

Malaria is a species of blood poverty known as Anaemia; it is a
condition in which the circulation is so weak and impure that it is un
able to supply the system with sufficient nourishment. and strength to
preserve ordinary health.
The real source oF malarial infection is a question about which
medical authorities differ. Some take the position that it is an atmos
pheric poison, the germs of which' are breathed into the lungs and thus
transmitted to the circulation. Others advance the theory that persons
become inoculated with the poison through the bites of mosqultos.
While the profession differ about the actual method of malarial infection,
they all agree that Malaria is a BLOOD DISEASE, and any treatment
to successfully overcome its effects must PURIFY THE BLOOD.
When the germs of Malaria get into the circulation, the nutritive
properties of the blood are weakened, the rich, red corpuscles being
gradually destroyed by the malarial poison. Then the symptoms of
the disease begin to be manifest. In the first stages of Malaria the
complexion becomes pale and sallow, the appetite is affected, the sys
tem grows bilious, and there is a general feeling of lassitude and weak
ness. Malaria is an insidious
poison and it gradually attacks
other portions of the system,
and if the germs are allowed to
remain in the blood, they some
times give rise to serious dis
eases and disorders. As the
circulation becomes more thor
oughly saturated with the mala
rial infection, the 'digestion is
deranged, chills and fever come
and go, skin diseases, boils,
sores and ulcers, etc. break out
on the body, and after awhile
the entire health becomes im
paired. Malaria can only be cured by
removing the germs from the
blood. Purging the liver and
bowels with strong, nauseating
cathartics can never reach the
real seat of the trouble, because
such things do not affect the
circulation. S. S. S. searches
out and destroys every particle
of malarial infection and builds
up the blood to a healthy, nour
ishing condition. Then the sys
tem receives its required amount of nutriment, the bright red corpus
cles begin to multiply in the circulation, sallow complexions grow ruddy
and healthful, the liver and digestion are righted, ttie appetite improved,
and the 'system vitalized and refreshed in every way. S. S. S. is a safe
and pleasant remedy as well as an efficient one. Write for free book
on the blood and any medical advice desired, no charge for either.
THE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., ATLANTA, GA.
fOISONED BT THE GERMS Of MALARIA.
I began using your S. S. S. probably
ten years ago for Malaria and blood
troubles, And it proved so good at that
time that I have continued ever since
using it n a family remedy. Recently
one of tny children was troubled with
large, painful boils on the back of his
neck; after suffering with these for
several months, we tried S. S. S., and
am glad to state that a few bottles cured
him entirely. It is a pleasure for tne
to recommend S. S. S. for the benefit
of others who are needing a first rate
blood purifier, tonic and sure cure for
Malaria. C. C. HEMINGWAY,
Arkansas City, Ark.
NO RELIEF UNTIL S. S. $. WAS TAKEN.
I had a horrible attack of boils that
broke out all over tny body, from Ma
laria, and from which I coutd get no
' possible relief until I began taking
your medicine, and from my experi
ence I can safely say that S. S. S. is
the best blood purifier in the world.

FROM the standpoint of economy and satis
faction the main factors entering Into
the purchase of an automobile you must
give your undivided attention to the Chal
mers, the car which early In Us career earned
the title of "The Champion Car," and which
has lived rigorously up to the reputation ever
since.
Chalmers cars have proved that nowhere
else can you get so much value price con
sidered, as you get In the Chalmers. Because
Chalmers cars are built on a quality, rather
than on a a quality basis. Because they are
manufactured and sold on a small margin of
profit.. . Because they are built to
give the service that a buyer wants
when he gets a car.
You cannot get a good automo
bile and the service that a good
automobile should give without
paying a fair price a price which
repays the manufacturer for design
ing and building the car and the
dealer for his services in Belling it
to you and for taking care of you
afterwards.

automobile that was ever sold for as low a price as $1,500. They have al
ways put unusual value Into the cars. They are worth all we ask for them
