old before- tomorrow night. -The

. not be placed on sale until the day
of each game. - ' ;' .

"home town." although a few dele
gations are coming from other cities.

press arangemetitj. announced that

Two Men With Whisky in x
' Auto Crash Into Trolley
In an automobile accident" at
Twenty-second and Leavenworth
streets at 6 o'clock Monday night two
Council Bluffs men, H. A. Murray,
1824 Sixth avenue, and J. Harris, 723
Minster street, miraculously escaped
death when the auto in which they
were riding collided with a street car.
Murray,, who was operating the mo
tor, escaped without a scratch, but
Harril was badly cut about the face
when he was hurled against the wind
shield. Witnesses told the police that the
car was being operated at a high rate
of speed and that apparently Murray
was paying no attention to where he
was going and made no effort to
avoid ' the collision. Both men, the
police say, were under the influence
of liquor, and. a pint bottle of whisky
was found, in the car. The injured
man was removed to a nearby house,
given surgical attention and both men
were placed under arrest Murray on
the , charge ,. of being intoxicated,
reckless driving, and ' unlawful pos
session of liquor, -while Harris was
booked on the charge of being in
toxicated and ' unlawfully having
Jiqitor in his possession. Bail for
each one was fixed at $125. The
police took possession of the wrecked
car. and will hold it, as they think it
was a stolen one. An examination
of the auto shows that the original
number plates. . have been removed
and other ones substituted.

Tennis Championship Honors
Narrows Down to Tilden
and Murray; Kumagae's '
Defeat is Decisive.
By Associated Press, ,
Forest Hills, N. Y., Sept. 2.-The.
national singles tennis championship
of 1918 lies between W. T. Tilden, jr.,
of Philadelphia and R. Lindley Mur
ray, the California expert, playing for
the Niagara Falls club. Tilden won
the right to face Murray on the
courts .of the West Side club here
today by defeating Ichiya Kumagae,
the Japanese racquet star, in straight
sets, the scores being 6-2; 6-2; 6-0.
Tilden's victory over Kumagae was
so decisive and lacking in sensational
tennis as to give the gallery little op
portunity to be enthusiastic. The
total point score for the three sets
was 83 to 47 in Tilden's favor and a
stroke analysis shows the Japanese
making far more errors ajid fewer
placement aces than the victor.
Kumagae Outplayed.
Kumagae was unable to play the
ball at the height-which is most
favorable to his. lobbine, Lawford
stroke. Numerous returns struck the
net and it was only occasionally he
could get the ball in position for
drives along the side lines.
Tilden, always holdinsr the UDoer
hand,) would leap to the net and
with a smash or vicious cross court
drive, send the ball beyond the reach
Of the Japanese. The latter tried
valiantly to stem the tide of inevitable
defeat in the first set, but as the
match progressed he recognized the
utter hooelessness of attempting to
battle with his far superior opnonent
and his frame rapidly, deteriorated.
The Junior national' doubles f ham
pionship was won by Harold Taylor
of- Brooklvn ?nd Vincent Richards of
Yonkers, N. Y., who defeated Gerald
Emerson of East Orange. N. J., and
Harold ftorenheimer. Philadelphia.

Kathleen Kirkham, playing the.
leadinsr role in The Eves of the
World," . surrendered all rights to a
$100,000 legacy when she became an
actress. The fortune was left to her
by a grandfather, Jacob W. Leisner,
of Wisconsin, providing that. at the
age of 21 she was not an actress. The
lure of the stage was too strong but
Miss Kirkham could not afford to
give up her earnings now for the
interest on .the $100,000.
In the new William Fox produc
tion, '-Bonnie Ahriie Laurie," starring
Peggy Hyland, which is being shown
at the Empress fop the first half of
the week, a succession of stirring
scenes in No Matfs Land, the war
swept area between the two great
armies in France, are shown with ab
solute fidelity and intense realism.
Qut of this, inferno of death and
heroism is born the solution of one
of the sweetest, most tender love
tales ever shown cut the screen. The
story deals with t i rivalry of a gal
lant British and a brave American
soldier for the love of a tender
Scotch lassie, and the noble-hearted
way in which she cuts the tangled
skein of crossed desires.
As a ptoof that, the public does not
always want something new in the
world of motion pictures there are
being run over the country several
of the most successful films ever put
ouf, and they are all reissues. Notably
among these are Theda Bara in "A
Fool There Was." and in "The
Clemenceau Case," and William Far
num in "The Bondman," "The Plun
derer," and "The Soldier's Oath.'

FORD MAN SAYS
IMPROVEMENT IS
JUST WONDERFUL
Bullock Says Rheumatism Af
fected Him All Over
Tanlac Overcomes His
Troubles.

"If it hadn't been for Tanlac I ac
tually believe I would still be iust aa
sick and ailing as I was a few weeks-"
ago," said Lewis A' Bullock, machin- .
ist for the Ford Automobile Company
and living at 9319 Thirty-first
street, Omaha.
( "More than a year ago," he .con
tinued, "when my health began to .
fail I lost my appetite and soon got
so I could hardly eat a thing without
having the most awful pains in my
stomach. My liver, too, seemed to
be out of order and didn't work right
and I was constantly troubled with
constipation. My headached must all
the time and I felt so weak and no
account ad had so little ambition"
that I could hardly keeo uo an inter?
est in anything. And if that wasn't
bad enough I was seized with rhenmaS
tism that affected every part of my
body and I ached terribly all over,
first in one place and then in an
other. "This was just the shape I was to
when I began to read about the way
Tanlac was hejping others, and al
though I had taken all kinds of medi
cines without getting relief, I de- '
termined to give Tanlac a trial. I "
had hardlv started on my first bottle
before I began picking up and .feel- ,
ing better. My appetite increased
day by day as my stomach toned up.
my food soon stopped souring and
every dose seemed to give me r.ew
strength and energy. My liver is
now acting better and my system is
more regular, my rheumatism has "
been greatly relieved and, in fact, my
general improvement has been so i
marked and I feel so good that I just '
can't praise Tanlac enough for what
it is doing for me." .
