With the Tri-Clty Basket Ball league
entering Its second week of play In
terest has bean awakened throughout the
three cities. The game the last week
have beeo, aa a whole, close and full of
excitement, hut because the season has
Juat begun, they have not given an ac
curate estimate of the relative strength
of the various teams. Some of the team
have been handlcanped at the start by
having a regular place to practice. This
has, hoaever, been remedied now and by
the' end of next week follower of the
game should be able to 'at leaat know
which team are goiug to be contenders
for -.til trophies.
On one team only, can one get a good
line and that Is the Plratu team of the
Young Men's Christian association. With
several of the member of text year's
Tiger team this quintet la going Into
the fray conceded first or second place.
The .Tiger Cub team, which at first
looked Ilka a winner baa received a
hock by th dsciion of Burkenroad.
Munnek and Hughe lo play with the
high eshool five. I'p to thla time the
Cuba, looked like a good choice for first
honor, but baa dropped a great deal
since the reorganisation. On tbe ether
team It Is aa yet too early to judge
what their strength will be when the
season Is a little further advanced.
- SIC Oaea Tealght.
Six gamea are booked for tonight and
each should prove fast and closely con
tested etrugglea. Two will be played at
the local Young Men' Christian aaeocla
tlon and one at tha University ef Omaha.
At the association floor the Omaha High
school wlU meet the Council Bluff Toung
Men's Christian association team and
Crelghton will play the South Omaha
High echool. - Dope tOi the first game
favors the high achool, because It un
doubtedly haa one of the fastest teams
In the league, and aa Council Bluffs was
trying lo get the tuberculosis hospital In
condition to receive patient. The work
Is not completed and Mr. Cowles expect
to retnrn to Kearney tomorrow and re
main until the opening.
RAVENNA BOXER HOLDS
TOM SMITH TO A DRAW
should win.
Crelghtoa has a set of Individual play
ers who are hard to beat, but are still
slightly shy on team work. South
Omaha haa one of the best teams ia the
state and will put up a hard fight, but
with an even break of luck Crelghton
will be tbe favorite.
It Is harder to pick a winner In th
fame on th university floor, because
both teams tost their games hist Satur
day nlglit, and both ara playing men who
have never worked together before this
year. Last week's game showed Bellevu
doing excellent team work, hut deficient
in throwing goal. On the other hand.
Omaha tossed goals accurately, but
bowed very little team work. As both
have had a week In. which to point up
the weak places the game promises te
be full of excitement, with both teams
fighting hard to win. Aa thla Is th only
game In which there is any rivalry, other
than the championship of the league. It
I eliciting more Intereat than any of the
other contents. All games are scheduled
tj stsrt at I o'clock.
Curtis, who made a most favorable im
pression last Saturday and who showed
thorough knowledge of tha game and
gave hi decision quickly and impartially.
will referee tbe game on th Young
Men' Chrtttn association floor. Kle-

university.

BIDSTIIE SYSTEM
OF CATARRH
Catarrh is a blood disease which causes a general inflammation of the:
inner linings or mucous membranes of the body. The diseasing of these
delicate surfaces and tissues produces all the well known symptoms of the
trouble, such as ringing- noises in the head and ears, tight, stuffy feeling' ia
the nose, pains above the eyes, irritation of the throat, sometimes slight
fever, and a general feeling of weakness and ill health. Even the lungs
become affected by the continual passage of impure blood through them, and
there is danger of consumption if the disease is allowed to remain in the
system. S. S. S. cures Catarrh because it purifies the blood. It goes into:
the circulation snd removes every particle of the catarrhal natter, making
this vital fluid pure, rich and healthy. Then the Inflamed membranes begin
to heal, every symptom disappears, the constitution is built up and health
restored. S. S. S. rids the system of catarrh by attacking the trouble at its
head and entirely removing the cause from the blood, thus making a perma
nent and lasting cure. & S. & is made entirely from health-giving roots,
herbs and barks, and for this reason is an especially safe and desirable medicine,
Book oa Catarrh and any medical advice free to all who write.
