Hays after his first defeat came
back for the Murphys and won from
the Armours in ten innings. Errors
by his team mates were largely re
sponsible for the four runs scored
by the packers. League started for
the packing house crew but after be

Consolidation is Favored
by Omaha Bowling Leagues
' Enlistment in the army of many
crack Omaha bowlers and the lack
of interest shown by those at home
yjill probably lead to the consolida
tion of the Farnam and Huntington
leagues. The Farnam league at a
meeting Sunday afternoon decided
to meet with the Huntington bowl
trs at 8 o'clock Monday night and
confer on consolidation.
Only four teams in the Farnam
league asked for new franchises. All

Costs Government $17,
339,681,342 and Ex
penses Growing.
Washington, Sept. 16. Seventeen
months of war have cost the United
States- government $17,339,681,342
a billion dollars a month. This rate
has increased so rapidly, however,
that August expenses ran up to
$1,805,513,222, or nearly $200,000,000
more than the highest previous rec
ord set in July.
These figures from the Treasury
show that-less than 1J4 years of
modern warfare have cost the Unit
ed States more than four times
the combined Union and Confeder
ate outlays for three years of the
civil war, calculated at $3,660,000,000
for the union and $1,500,000,000 for
the confederates.
The report also shows double the
rate of increase in expenditures es
timated by the government in June,
then set at $100,000,000 more each
month. If this rate continues, ex
penses for the year ending next
June 30 will be much more than
the $24,000,000,000 estimated, and the
country may be called on to absorb
more than 'the $16,000,000,000 of
Liberty bonds now tentatively
planned.
Allies Get Big Sum.
The Treasury report also shows
further of the $17,339,000,000 cost of
the war to date, $10,989,077,000 has
been spent for ordinary war pur
poses, and $6,245,764,000 has gone
a' financial aid to the allies. This
til be repaid eventually, and con
sequently may be deducted in cal
culating the net war expense to the
United States government.
Only $5,031,478,000 has been gath
ered by the government from taxes,
customs and other minor sources of
revenue since the war started, and
$12,300,000,000 from Liberty loans
and sale of certificates of indebted
ness, which are to be converted into
Liberty, bonds. This indicates that
only 29 per cent of war expenses to
date have been drawn directly from
the pockets of the people, and that
71 per cent has come from popular
borrowings which wiil necessitate
heavy tax levies long after the war.
The third Liberty loan has now
brought in $4,165,635,000. which
leaves onfy $11,000,000 of the $4,176
000,000 original subscriptions yet to
be paid in. The last installment
was due three weeks ago. Income

Millions of thrifty citizens invest
ing in War Savings stamps have
piled up $647,554,000. In August re
ceipts from the stamps were $129
044,000. Even with this total, com
parison shows that war savers did
not keep up their pace set in July,
when the government collected $211
417,000 as a result of the national
campaign on thrift day.
Tremendous war expenses these
days $60,000,000 a day are being
met by the sale of certificates of in
debtedness, virtually short time
loans from banks, to be refunded
in the fourth Liberty loan. Even
with $500,000,000 of these securi
ties going out every two weeks, and
a corresponding inflow of money,
the government's working balance
has dropped from about $1,500,000
000, where it stood for the last few
months, to about $1,000,000,000. The
figure represents funds on hand,
most of which is distributed as de
posits among hundreds of banks,
but available at all times for check
ing out.

AFTER her four weeks in
vaudeville, Marie Cahill goes
Around the Corner," the musical
comedy which she presented for 12
weeks in Chicago, closing a week
ago. Despite the great number ot
successes in which Miss Lahill lias
starred, it is a curious fact that she
is nervously as high-keyed before
each of her performances as if she
were a novice, she is at the Or
pheum tliis week, where she is pre
senting a number of her old song
successes, and a monologue which
rouses the heartiest sort of laugh
ter. "Oh, Boy," the smartest musical
offering in many a moon, is at the
Boyd theater tonight and tomorrow
with matinee tomorrow. This
charming musical comedy is being
presented by an unusual cast of fa
vorites, ' including Lavinia Winn,
Harry Meyers, Theodora Warfield,
Franklyn Graham, Helen Du Bois,
Anna Little, James F. Fulton,
Thomas C, Leary, James E. Rome,
Billv Gould. Florence Smith, Miriam
Haeber and a brilliant ensemble of
boys and girls.
Showing that audiences that en
joy musical burlesque also appreci
ate a touch of such a classic as the
"Sextette" from "Lucia" is clearly
shown by the applause accorded
Katherine Dickay and Gene Cross
in their rendition of the number.
That it is supposed to be interpreted
by six voices instead of but two
is no barrier to these gifted mem
bers of "The Sight Seers" at the
Gayety winning unlimited applause.
Claire Hanson and Village Four
at the Empress theater possess good
voices and their songs include high
class selections as well as popular
hits. Delton, Marena and Delton
provide tricks that appear fool
hardy, performed in a manner that
demonstrates their ability as acro
bats, "The Maid of the Mountains." a
musical play which had a two-year
run in London, was produced in
New York last week with William
Courtenay making his debut in this
form of entertainment. He appeared
as a brigand chief. The title role
was sung by Sidonie Espero, and
William Danforth and Bert Clark
had the comedy roles.
De Wolf Hopper, who is at the
New York Hippodrome, started a
movement to abolish the carrying of
walking canes among the male mem
bers for the duration of the war,
the object being to donate the canes
to the various hospitals in the vi
cinity of New York for the use of
convalescent soldiers and sailors.
Every unclaimed ' walking stick
found in the big playhouse will also
be put to this use.

Lenine Hints Bolsheviki Are
Powerless Against Allies
and Must Have Aid of
Imperialists.
Amsterdam, Sept. 16. Hints that
the bolshevik government of Rus
sia may seek alliance with other
powers are contained in a note ad
dressed to the people's commissar
ies and Soviets by Nikolai Lenine,
the bolshevik premier, printed in the
Pravda of Petrograd and repub
lished in the Lokal Anzeiger of Ber
lin. The note reads:
"The position on the Czecho-Slo-vak
front is becoming more danger
ous daily. We are daily becoming
increasingly convinced that alone
we are powerless. For the soviet
government there is only one way
out, namely to conclude a defensive
and offensive alliance with another
power.
"In order to save the power of the
workers and peasants, we must not
even recoil from an alliance with
imperialists."
Compliments for Reavis.
Washington. Sept. 16. (Special
Telegram.) Echoes of Congress
man Reavis' speech are still heard
about the corridors of the capitol.
Many old-timers say it was the
greatest speech on the war yet delivered.

Sufferers Should Realize That
It Is a Blood Infection and
Can Be Permanently
Relieved.
Rheumatism means that the blood
has become saturated with uric
acid poison.
It does not require medical ad
vice to know that good health is
absolutely dependent upon pure
blood. When the muscles and joints
become sore and drawn with rheu
matism, it is not a wise thing to
take a little salve and by rubbing it
on the sore spot, expect to get rid
of your rheumatics. You must go
deeper than that, down deep into
the Wood where the poison lurks
and which is not affected by salves
I and ointments. It is important that
jyou rid yourself of this terrible dis
ease before it goes too far. S. S. S.
i is the blood purifier that has stood
the test of time, having been in con-
stant use for more than fifty years.
I It will do for you what it has done
for thousands of others, drive the
rheumatic poisons out of your
I blood, making it pure and strong
jand enabling it to make you well.
S. S. S. is guaranteed purely vege
! table, it will do the work and not
harm the most delicate stomach,
j Write the physician of this Com
jpany and let him advise with you.
i Advise is furnished without charge.

BESSIE BARRISCALE
In "MAID OF THE STORM"
"OUR BRIDGE OF SHIPS"
WASTED HALF THE
MONEY HE MADE
FOR FIVE YEARS
Nothing Gave Him Any Relief
Until He Began Taking
Tanlac.
"After spending fully half tha
money I made during the past five
years on medicines that did me no
good, a few bottles of Tanlac put an
end to my troubles so that now a
hard day's work never even tires
me," said J. J. Harinsrton, 423 South
Ohio Street, Butte, Mont., the other
day.
"About five years ago," he con
tinued, "I had an attack of fever,
that left me with such an awful
cough-that it looked like I would
never get rid of it, although I took
about every cough medicine there is
on the market. It would keep me
up at nights, and if I exerted myself
in any way it would start up and I
would almost cough my head off
before I could stop. This last year
or so my stomach went back on me,
I lost my appetite, and what little
I forced down soured and bloated
me up with gas till I was miserable
for hours afterwards. Then I suf
fered agonies from pains all

heart. Many a time I would come
home from work with such a raging
headache that I would go straight to
bed. My nights were so restless that
I could get but little sleep, and I
would get up in the monping feeling
tired and fagged out and worse than
when I went to bed.
"When I read so much about
Tanlac I asked my wife to get me
a bottle, but my trouble was so
stubborn that it was not till I was
on my third bottle that I noticed
any improvement. First my appe
tite started up, and soon after that
my stomach got all right and did
not trouble me any more, uas
stopped forming as my indigestion
improved and the misery in my
chest and around my heart stopped
for good. My cough, too, has en
tirely disappeared. I sleep like a
log at night and I haven't had a
headache since I finished my sec
ond bottle of Tanlac. My consti
pation has been corrected and I
now feel so well and strong that I
am equal to any job, no matter
what it is."
Tanlac is sold in Omaha by Sher
man & McConnell Drug Co., corner
16th and Dodge streets; 16th and
Harney streets ; Owl Drug Co., 16th
and Farnam streets; Harvard Phar
macy, 24th and Farnam streets;

sonal direction of a Special Tanlac
Representative, and in South Omaha
