that waa sorely

and raw and Kneave
he same. That with Klehoff. a third h
, man. covering second, made the Infield
afraid of Itself. There Is where most of !
the same have neen lost. Moore Is an
rid head and a fond second baseman. Thus
far he haa been another most valuable pes
i the Infield. All this steadying effect help
old Jim Kane mightily, though It must be
, raid for Jim that he has been playing
Frank Chance ball right along. Our other
new Inflelder. Scanlon. haa yet to show.
,He Is a big,, rang fellow, who. In tenser
. te.tguea. has been a clouter with the bat
and it remains to be seen whether he will
, be able to crowd either Kneares or Moore
off the Job. Bo far aa Pick Is concerned. It
Is our judgment and that of a good many
well balanced fans that his natural place
. Is In the outfield. 'With his speed, ginger
-and great arm and hitting ability, we do
not see why Cleveland' does not have him
"trained for this Instead of third, though
when it comes to an outfield. Omaha la
Jhere. It still looks. In spite of this mis
erable run of adversity we have had all
along, that this team ought to finish n
first dl vision. The one obstacle to th. .
that ail the others are strengthening v
playing fast ball.
Our esteemed friend, the Sporting News,
shades history Just a bit when It says that
"Bobby Cam there sbona when Pop Anson
and Comlakey were bursting Into glory."
The fact Is both Anson and Comlskey
had been shining a long time ahead of
Dob. and It waa Comiskey as captain and
. manager of the old St. Louis Browns who
took Caruthers, a young phenom. and
. showed him the way. Speaking of Caruth- j
era aa tha "$15,000 beauty" ho was, only i
It was this way: Caruthers, Pouts and

The Cuba still look to be the one best bet.
They left Chicago In third place and re
turned In first. That does not look like a
broken down machine. When It comes to
up-hill fighting Chance Is there ahead of
any of them. Dooin's broken leg puts htm
out of the game, and his team to a great
disadvantage, though the old ex-Cub.

which has shown off wonderfully this
year. Chance, too, la out of tha game for
tha rest of tha season, and Kvers, and how
often have yon heard It said that "Even
Is tha Cubs? That flattering Illusion Is
completely dispelled now, though John was
a big factor.
This haa been a banner year for clashes'
between players and umpire tn th Na
tional league. Unfortunately there seems
to be basis causa In that lea true for
trouble which does not exist In th Amer
ican. What Is it? President Lynch has
suspended Sherwood Magee for th re
mainder of th season, after fining him
1300, tha maximum allowed under baa ball
law, for striking t'roptr Flnneraa. Ban
Johnson slapped auch a suspension on Kid
Elberfleld several years ago and haa had
occasion to do nothing of tha kind sine.

tli National. Magee' s ease la a good ob
ject lesson to th rest of tha players.
Too much conversation money 1 being
tnt for ball players these days. W
not, disputing th Marty OToole price,
the 122,(00 check haa already been photo
phed and what could b more oonclu
t? Still, a man waa Identified as dead
th other day and than walked Into tha
police station and proved he waa alive. But
ojitald of that, every day on hears of
some new tS.OOo of 17,600 deal and for soma
players of th fnoat medlocr strip. It is
bad bluff. It is "bad for tha player In
volved and thoaa not Involved and for th
game. Business is business. Let th price
.be treated so, th same aa salaries.
I All eyes In th sporting world of th
Ll'iuted State will a turned to Omaha for
Dbt next three weeks, watching the prog
Fress of th three big tournamanta to be
held her. Th tennis men are Interested
la th National Clay Court tennis tourney,
August t to 11; trap shooters in th West
ern Handicap Shoot,, August 8, . and 10;
and th golf world haa Its Interest centered
an th big Traaamlaaiaalppi Golf Tourna
ment, 'Angust 14 to 10. Omaha will show
th worM bow it can handle thee big
events. -
TT.at baa ball I essentially a American
' game t not to be denied. Tha Japs and
Chink Who ended their series at Hono
lulu tn Hot gave rather good evidence
that th oriental temperament needs long
seasoning to adapt It to tha exigencies of
this grand system of competitive genius.
If Sara Arnew could, by some hook or
crook, learn to hold a thrown ball long
enough to tag a runner out. It would help
t make him a first-class catcher. He and
Knravee have loat enough gamea by drop
ping balla at aueh critical times to land
the team away up In first division.
Th Boston Red Sox are said to have of
fered tt.OnO for Buddy Ryan, th slugging
IttU outfielder of Portland, formerly of
Pueblo, and Comlakey also wanta him. If
was th Grand Island boy Pa Rourk went
ta look over when he got George Graham,
but was landed by th Colorado city, which
made th mistake of letting him go.
Down In Georgia th only box scores In
th major league any of th paper print
are thoee In which Detroit, or. that is to
say, Ty Cobb, la Involved.
Th scouts are after Hall and Thomaaon.
Can you blaan them? Hall belong to
Hedges, though, and probably will go back
t Sc Louie.
sfparhap thoee Dee Moinea knockers could
persuaded to admit that thetr team haa
'swaa playmg some ball ef lata
Th scouts have their lampa on Hall and
Thomaaon, which shows th scouts to nave
good lamp.

JIOENING GAME AT BEKSOS
Interesting- Gossip for AH the Lovers
f the Great National Game
Com an Go of tfhe ma
tear Players.
At' Benson Eagles park th best double
bill that has been offered the fans this
season is scheduled to be pulled oft Th
first fray will be between the Stors Tri
umphs and the Benson Eagles. This game
has been looked forward to by all the fans,
especially those of Benson aa the only op
portunity available to Interrupt the tre
mendous stride of victory waged by the
brewery crew. If the nativ birda of Ben
son do not bring the Ston to halt this
afternoon they will have the Tri-Clty
championship of 1911 wrapped up, bottled
and sealed. Th Benson boys hav a very
fast and hard hlting aggregation and It
la safe to say they will press the Triumphs
to exhibit their beet ability. Although the
Stors were set back a trifle by the Mink
leaguers last Sunday, still from a view of
the gam on could easily see that the
Triumphs have th beat man and ar
heavier with th ash furniture. In their
last encounter the beer advertisers beat
th Benson 1 tea In a hard slugging match,
but It waa on decoration day and tha vic
tims took tha defeat as a punishment for
playing on that day. Big Tony Bruggeman
will be on the mound for th brewers,
while Murray will endeavor to cast the
horsehld mysteriously for th suburbans.
Aa soon aa th first gam haa matured
Into the stage of past affair, th mors
interesting current events will be shown.
The Royal Achates and Val Blat will be
th ahow In the second game. On last Sun
day th Blats boys renewed on of their
early victories by walloplpg th Papllllon
ball toaeera in 5ne of th most Interesting
games of the year. For the Royal Achates
Moran will break his twisters over the
griddle. Th presence of Harry Hammond
will undoubtedly be notloed In tha Roynl
Achates lineup.

Plumbers hav mad several changes of
late, including ths releasing of Pitcher
Nelson.
Again th Holly Red Sox will travel
across the big Missouri to contest their
rights with the Merchants of Council
Bluffs. Both these teams went down
lgnominiously last Sabbath before their
opponents, but a thing like that Is liable
to happen to any team. Anyway, It Is a
euro bet that one or the other must sus
tain two defeats In succession. Most prob
ably Kranda of th Hollys will be mounded
against Big Bill Hombach. Last Sunday
was Kranda's first appearance on the
mound, and he mad good on the Jump.
Hombach haa not been with the Merchants
for over two months, as he haa been up in
Mitchell, S. D., twirling la th Outlaw
league. Both Captain Dougherty and Gib
son are determined to cop this game and
lift their teams out of the debris.
Asnatenr Gossip.
Tingley, la., has Eddie Cunningham as
MeCormlck
Games at Fort Ossaka.
Out at Fort Omaha two fast games are
reported to be on hand. Th Townsend
Oun Company and th Han scorn Parks will
form the first excitement manufacturers.
This will undoubtedly be th sensational
game of the day, as both ths Townaends
and Park now hav the strongest line
ups they hav had so far this season. The
presence of Pat Kennedy as a slpp Inserter
and Woodruff's bard hitting haa brought
the Townsends out of their slumping condi
tion, and now they are considered to be
ring leaders In all champlonahip struggles.
Ths Hansoom Parka, however, under the
Judicious training of Clarence Benson, have
been steadily forging to the front In
nearly every fray their famous llttl south
paw, Eddla Bogatta, has been retiring
eight to twelve men via th strike-out road
and allowing three to five safetlea Big
Hlllard Moriarlty will pitch for tha Gun
ners and probably Clair will be back of
the rubber. Immediately after th first
game, or. rather, at 1:60 sharp, th second
gams contestants, namely th Americans
and Hotfmans, will arraign themselves for
combat For a Ion time th Americans
have been anxious to receive tha Hoffman
Into their camp. Mongerson will pitch for
the Americans, whtl Qurnes will probably
twirl for tha Hoffman.
Th R. E. Longs are going to Journey to
Craacact, la., today, where they will mast
its box artist
Both the Qulgleys ar out of the game at
present, but in a few weeks they will be
in uniform again.
Eddie Claire will soon be seen back In a
Toaneend uniform, at least that la what
some of ths players contend.
Hombach Is at present out of the game.
SIpnce hi return from Mitchell, S. .. ha
haa not appeared in a baa ball uniform.
George Falconer is th leading batsman
for the Holly Red Sox. At Hourke park be
is given the glad hand oftener than any
other individual.
Manager Hughes has been hitting at a
lively gait all year. Hardly ever is ths
manager of an Omaha crew an individual
star, but the manager of the Bell Telephone
company is a natural ball tosser.
The Council Bluffs Merchants have been
seriously lamed alnc the organisation of
th Council Bluffs Rowing association
team. Hodge and both the Peterson
brothers are with th boat club.
Th Hoc tors will continue thetr string
of out-of-town trips, as tbey will go to
Blair today. In their last encounter at
that town they smothered the home boys
very cruelly. Blair haa been picking up
lately, making all of the far-famed Omaha
lads hustle to cop th big arid.
This afternoon the Whit City Ramblers
will play th Superiors at Diets Park. Gar
rison or Probst will pitch for ths Whit
Cities. The Ramblers would llks to meet
the Twin Cities on any grounds In th city.
Address, Cus Probst, Sixth and Pierce
streets.
The Sherman Avenue Merchants will
sprain parade out of town, this time to
Missouri Valley, la. Rathk, th newly
acquired twirler, is making a splendid
record. In the early part of the season
he was herded up into right field bv the
Farrell Syrups and did not hav a chance
to evince his ability.
The J. S. Crosses will travel across the
bridge to Iaka Manawa, where they Will
meet the Council Bluffs Rowing associ
ation. Kdmondson of the Croaaea haa been
making bis boys get out twice a week in
order to get the tram working more
smoothly. Overman will probably be put
back into the place behind the muscle.
Peterson will hurl th horsehide for the
rowing association.
On September 1 and 4 the Rock Island
team of Chicago will meet the Stori Tri
umphs at Hourke park. Th Chicago team
is one of the best amateur aggregations in
the big city. Pilaster, an old-time Omaha
amateur, is the manager and middle corner
man for th railroad men. He will be re
membered aa the pretty, llttl lad who
cavorted around that position when Frank
Uulgley had the Townsend Gun company
team.
A big game will be held at Miller park
next Saturdav afternoon when the North-
, ...Bando 1 western Headquarters s base ball represrn
.Waverln . tatlves meet the men from the I'nlon Pa-
Hollander ! elf Ic headquarters. This contest is to
settle their annual arguments, and a large :
squad of officers must needs be on hand
to avert all attacks on the umpires. Both
teams will have fir In their eyea aa they
parade to the scene of baula and a game
full of old-tim pep Is assured.
Wandering Billy Fox returned to Omaha
last week and took his accustomed stand at
Hotel De Open Air. He has been working
in a Chicago restaurant for over two
months, but his lontrlng for his native
birthplace overpowered him and he made
quick haste for home. Eddie Sweeny, how
ever, quickly lumped Into the lob left
vacant by Fox and says he will not leav
the big city until th National league quar
rels ar over.
Out at Florence park the Advos and
Baum Irons will meet this afternoon. The
tendency of the Baum Irons to trip It out
of town haa made th chance difficult
for the grocerymen to receive the Iron
men Into their camp. The Baums seem to
claim certain honors which the Advos
would like to dispute snd so this afternoon
a controversy worth while will take place.
Baker win twirl lor the iron men, while
Adams and Parrlsb will do th battery
work for the Baum
Th Nebraska Telephone company will
varat their Floreno ball nark for tb
dmt time and take a carryall ride to Pa.
pillion, where they will meet th town lads.
K hi jades Is reported aa being In ths best
of condition, and if bs is ths wire talkers
will have to hav their batting eye tuned
up If they want to score. Pike will be the
mound performer for Omaha. Manager
William jHmleson has no games booked
ahead and he would like to hear from
some fast Omaha teams in regard to dates.
The busineaa men ar taking a decidedly
favorable aland point In regard to baaa ball
and In consequer.c a new grandstand will

CURES OLD
o BLOOD DISE4SES
Contagious Blood Poison is responsible for a great many old blood
troubles, such as scrofulous affections, skin eruptions, catarrhal troubles,
Rheumatism, ulcerating sores, etc There is no such thing as ridding tho
system of these effects by killing the poisonous germs. Any medicino
powerful enough to accomplish this would also destroy many of the deli
cate linings and tissues, and wreck the constitution. The only way to
cure old blood troubles is to REMOVE the cause from the circulation, and
for this purpose nothing is equal to S.S.S. It goes into the blood, and
drives out every taint and poison, and makes this vital fluid pure, rich and
nourishing. 5. 5. 5. has long been known as the greatest of all blood puri
fiers and many thousands have rid themselves of old blood diseases by
its use. It ALWAYS removes the impurity from the blood. Book on tho
