The Bporting Neas points out the one
ig olHtaTt to the Arwrlru asorta
tloc a nucb-mooted lct-aaion of big league
territory on an independent baaia. This,
of course, would make tbe association an
outlaw and it could not expect surplus
player from tbe two majors, nor recruits
from tbe leagues below. True. But per
hajS Mwsaira. Tebeaa and others hare
tofft k little further than that In their
Uin.tlona and perceived tbe possibility
of breaking Into the ranks of organised ball
above them, setting up conditions Inviting
to stars in tbe majors. That would precip
itate a real baae ball war. But tbere la
do need for It to eotne to this. The theory
on which many people proceed Is that
tbere ia room tor another major league
In organised ball. Vlll the National and
American league so view It? Also, aa

One of tbe sensations of the week waa
the Chance-Tinker case, which ended in
Tinker's winning Monday's game from
the Giants. One who knows of the ln
(ilue of this affair, says that Tinker had
coma to a time when reprimand from "the
big boas waa xteoeasary, though It la open
te debate whether the meaeuree Chance
took and revoked were wisest. They seem
to have brought results and that la What
the manager was after. Chance once made
this remark perhaps he haa made It more
than onoe "When I can't manage the
team I will resign the Job. Ve do not
save internal strife on tbe Cuba, for the
reason that I will not stand tor lt The
troubtie-maker Qitfta making trouble or
uta the team, one or ths other and that
lii hurry." Mr. Murphy was right in
saying that the Chance 'management stood
for discipline and because it did ths Cubs
bad won four pennants in five years.
Lack of as efficient discipline has kept
other good teams out of such honors and
It will do It every time
Fans are never boneheada, tout If they
were here would toe a case In hand. It
came off at Rourke park Just before the
team left home for this last trip. Kane
was on second, a bunt waa laid down near
third. Kane rounded that corner a tew
aeoxwda later and, with a , pitcher up tn
tb4 ax and a sub catcher covering first.
JlS very properly kept on going for
jiodkA He was thrown out by a tew Inches,
tout it took a perfect throw and a perfect
play at the plate to get him. The sub
junctive bonehead fan yelled. "Oh, you
Itunehead." while real ball fana cheered
Kane for his heady work and daring ef
fort, attempting the very play that Ty
Cobb haa been setting the country on fire
with all swaaon Tot he was a bonehead
ause he tailed by a traction of a second
make It. if all spectator understood
game it would be more pleasant for
tike player.

Promoter Believe that Game Can Be
Succeasf nlly Flayed in Sorth aa

BOSTON. Aug. 11 Racing automobile
over a beach ha come ts be regarded as a
southern fixture. World's records have
been made at tbe well known Ormond-Day-tona
beach en tbe Florida -coast, and last
winter a meet wa held very successfully
on the Atlantic-Pablo strip near Jackson
ville. If the plan of some New ( England
business men go through, however, this
form of motor racing will not be confined
to th south.
The proposition Is to make Old Orchard,
Me., tbe -"northern Orroond." Plana are
being made to bold a three-day race meet
on the beach there during tbe latter part
of this month. The business men of Old
Orchard ars behind the scheme and believe
they oan maks a go of It, They are ar
ranging a program and aprts hat that
will appeal. It is said, te all ths prominent
drivers.
The beach i admittedly a bard, fast
stretch, and for three miles there ts nothing
which will prevent a ear from traveling at j
ft height of speed. While it Is not ex- I
peoted that any records Ilk those created j
at Dart on and Ormond can be established 1
em ths Mains beach, there is ns Question 1
but What soans speed work can bs at
tempted with safety ts tbe driver and spec
tator. Th dais ef the meeting will be as ar
ranged as not ts Interfere la any way with

order t permit the drivers therein ts corns

Long Plumbing outfit. These two team
have been anxious to meet each other,

OLD SORES
Every person affiicted with an old sore realizes, sooner or later, that
the ulcer exists because of bad Wood; the character and condition of the
place depending on the nature of the blood infection. Virulent impurities
in tbe circulation produce angry, discharging ulcers, while milder, inert
germs are usually manifested in the form of indolent sores or dry, scabby
places. No one should depend upon salves, washes, lotions, etc., alone
to cure a chronic sore. It is necessary to remove the cause before the
place can heal. S.S.5. heals Old Sores by going down into the circulation
and removing the impurities and germs which are responsible for the place.
In addition to purifying the blood S.S.S. enriches this vital fluid so that the
