(rom a Staff Correspondent.)
St. Joseph, Mo., June U. (Special
Telegram.) It was a nightmate
which Omaha won from St. Joe to
day, 15 to 6. The game was filled
with errors of omission and commis
sion and hits vied with niisplays in
making the game one of the worst
ever played at League park.
In errors Jjoth teams offended about
equally, although the Drummers man
aged to roll up two more misplays
than did the Rourkes.
The Omaha bunch garnered twen
ty hits off the delivery of three St.
.loscpn pitchers, rowell, (jraham and
novlik and had a great deal of pleas
tire in faltering their batting aver
ages.
Mcrz pitched good ball until the
ninth when he slacked his pace and
allowed the Drummers four runs.
They might as well had ten so far
as the results were concerned for
no one could have beaten the Rourkes
the way they were hitting the ball.
To recount the manner in which
the runs were made would be a ohvsi-
cal impossibility and in this time of
shortage ot while paper a. very fool
ish attempt.
Tomorrow Babe Adams and Marty
O'Toole will fac each other again
and the fans anticipate a real ball
gfime again. The game jodav after
perfection of yesterday gave the fans
mental indignation.

Dyed-in-the-wool horse racing fans,
society folks, soldiers and just ordi

made up the large and cosmopolitan
crowd which saw a Nebraska trotting
champion humbled in one event and
an Omaha stepper came into his own
in inother at the second day's pro
gram of the Omaha Driving club's
June meeting at Benson track Tues
day afternoon. -
The metropolitan card offered yes
terday made the Iiensnn racing plant
the mecca for an enthusiastic throng
of turf patrons. Class cropped out
all over the program.
Admirers of equine spewed, men and
women, old and young, killed two
birds with one stone witnessed a
bill of horse racing that kept them
interested until 6 o'clock and gave
the Red Cross a lift.

AH proceed of the Omaha Driv

will be turned over to the great or
ganization, which is playing and will
play so important a part in the world

Judging from yesterday's big turn
out and the fair-sized crowd Tuesday,
and excellent chances for a huge, rec
ord-breaking throng today, the driving
club will pour several thousand dol
lars in,to the war coffers of the Red
Cross. '
The two outstanding feature races
on Wednesday's sport menu were the
2:11 trot and the 2:27 trot.

of excellent parentage, driven by the

You Must Stamp
It Out
Realize that Catarrh is dan
gerous. Faee the truth square
ly that it can cause death but
you can be relieved.
See what Mrs. Henry Waye,
R. F. D. No. 1, Wentzville, Mo.,
says about how she was re
lieved of Catarrh through the
use of S. S. S.
"I am glad to jay that t
nave never needed to take any
mere medicine as I have never
had any return of the- Catarrh,
thanks to 6. 8. 8. I highly rec
ommend it.".
Tf- is an undoubted fact that
the careless way in which bo
mnnv sufferers from Catarrh
regard this troublesome disease
in its early stages is a promi
nent reason for its awful rav
ages. If they would take hold
of it when it is nothing more
than a supposed cold in the
head, permanent and lasting
relief would be a simple mat
ter. You must treat Catarrh seri
ously. Catarrh is not merely an
inflammation of the tissues of
the head and throat, as the
symptoms of ringing noises in
the ears, mucous dropping
back into the throat, continual
hawking, etc., would seem to
indicate. It is a blood disease;
it affects the entire circulation.
Catarrh is due to the pres
ence of Catarrh Germs in the
blood. The liver, kidneys and
bowels frequently become tor
pid and dull in their action and,
instead of carrying off the re
fuse and waste of the body,
leave it to ferment In the- sys
tem. This is taken up by the
blood and, through its circula
tion, distributed to all parts of
te system. These impurities I

for this type of steppers, tasted de
feat in the 2:11 event, when Axtien,
a speed merchant equally at home in
show ring and on tracks, captured
the race in straight heats.
Reinsman Harris, who hails from
Illinois, owner and driver of the
beauty sired by Axworthy, was "sit
ting chilly" as the trotlers spurted
down the home stretch n both heats.
The Nebraska animal, however, had
"some horse" to beat, for Axteen has
few peers in the country and only a
handful of superiors. The Illinois
stepper ranking alst i . among the
cream of show horses, won second
money in the $20,000 trotting stake
at San Francisco two years ago. Ax
tien stepped the two heats in
and 2:14!' respectively.
Gail McKinney and Tommy Horn,
the latter touted as having a chance
to win, divided third and fourth
