“Yorganized baseball has “st. “* Fred Clarke, manager of the Pitts- +semi-pro catcher, a youngster named P Diamond Dust l Only once before in the history of the Boston National team been as high as sec- ond place. And that was just twenty years ‘ago. A Washington paper says that Mar- sans, one time New Britain player, is not sorry he jumped to the Feder- als, even if he is restrained from playing by the courts. The Cuban, | while under the jurisdiction of the courts, is doing scout duty for the Louis Federals and is reported | to be getting the magnificent stipend | of $6,500 a year. While with Cincin- | nati his salary was $3,500 and he had | to labor each and every day—when | it didn’t rain. The New York Americans played games on the Western trip just closed, | gn average of five in each city. They won eleven of the games and lost’ nine. Road trips as successful as the last one of the Athletics are few and far between. The world's champions won fourteen games and lost two. Thirteen Federal leaguers have each made more than 100 hits. They gre Kauff, Evans, Campbell, Ken- Worthy, Zwilling, Laporte, Oakes, Wickland, Swacina, McKechnie, Beck, | Chadbourne and Hanford, represent- ing every team except St. Louis. Henry O'Day would trade Heine Zimmerman for Zach Wheat, O'Mara and Jake Daubert if Wilbert Robin- son would throw in Pfeffer to boot. Hank is a reckless sort of a manager. burg Nationals, who was taken ill with ptomaine poisoning recently is | now at his home in Pittsburg. Hans | Wagner will act as manager of the team during his absence. . The Giants put the Cardinals and Cubs further behind them yesterday and now find a new foe as their closest pursuer. They beat the Car- #inals while the Brooklyns were whitewashing the slipping Cubs and the Bostons were dcfeating the Reds. The Braves shot up to second place. They are six and a half games be- hind the Giants. The Pirates won in Philadelphia. Bridgeport has picked up another Smith, who hails from New York, He will be kept in reserve in case of ac- cident to Crook. Chic Hartley, the old Holyoke out- fielder, was ordered by the Bingham- ton club of the New York State league to report to Scranton and he refused, wéth the result that Binghamton Jas taken him on again. Duchenil, with Pittsfield last season, | has been let out to the Binghamton | club of the New York State league by Rochester. BASEBALL MAY BE s HIT BY BIG WAR! Most Horsehide Used in Balls Comes | From Russia and May Be Stopped. +The Boston Commercial Bulletin points out the strange fact that a | lengthy war may stop the game of | baseball. It says: Most Americans appreciate that the | ultimate effect on this country’s busi- | ness of the horrible conflict of thei nations of Europe cannot but be bad. | Few Americans, however, appreciate | that it may have a serious effect on American sport. | *1f commerce between Russia and | the United States is suspended for | any materia] length of time, the nn—l tional game of baseball may be ma- terially affected. Every grade of| baseball above the twenty-five-cent variety is covered with Russian horse- hide. The Russian horse, having been exposed for thousands of years if' the open steppes to the flerce Rus- sian winter, has developed a hide of extraordinary strength and tenacity. Leather made from this hide is the | only variety that will stand the ter- | rible srain required in the covering | of a baseball, Consequently, the prevention of exportation of Russian hides, strange as it may appear, if | continued for any length of time, ! ¥night send up the price of baseballs | to such a figure as seriously to ham- per the enjoyment of the Amerlcan" small boy, though not perhaps to! check in any appreciable manner the richly financed professional game. | ¥ RESOLUTE IS READY. i b ey | Was Kept Under Sail For Three Hours Yesterday. Bristol, R. I, Aug, 11.—The cup defender Resolute was taken out for a spin under refitted canvas yester- day afternoon for the first time since spe came here from Newport last week. It was to give the crew exer- cise and to keep them in training that the craft was under sail for three hours yesterday afternoon. The manager, Robert W. Emmons 2d, took his family on board the Reso- lute on the spin to Newport and re- turn in a stiff southwester. Mr., Em- ons, the officers and seamen are ex- cting to hear today that the Sham- rock will race in October next. Should it be decided that the cup races will be held this fall the Reso- lute will resume her trials. M 5y oo CROP IS POOR. Wéshington, Aug. 11.—Mike Ka- hoe, scouting for Washington, re- turned after three weeksspent in the bushes Wwith the same old tale the tdbuts tell. “I have been as far south i Florida,” said Kahoe, “but up to date have failed to discover a ball player in the minors that I would be willing to recommend.

(Continued from Eighth Page.) not wet with oil as though it came up past rings. If you can enlighten me any, I will be a thousand times thankful to you—L. C. You state that you have had the cylinders rebored and new piston rings fitted; after having this done, the compression should be much bet- ter than it ever was. It is quite pos- sible that the piston and rings have not been properly fitted. You have | done about everything there is to be done, which would lead one to this conclusion—about the, only way to determine this, however, is to re- move the cylinders and carefully cal- iper the suspected parts. Motoring Department, The Heral *— I have trouble with my steering wheel in a way that I have never heard expressed by any one. My Car, nearly new, has minded the wheel easily until this morning when with- out any mishap it suddenly refused to turn in either direction an inch. The motor doctor said that it was trozen in the collar, below the steer- and after much work it ;as made to turn, but much too stiff. ‘an you advise me as to the cause and a possible remedy against get- ting in like fix again, for it would be a source of some danger, Thanking vou in advance.—A. S. Y. The steering gear needs careful at- tention at frequent intervals. It must be kept well lubricated. The bushing in question seized due to the lack of proper lubrication. This is very apt to happen with any bearing where there is any amount of friction. Under the circumstances, it would be advis- able to remove the bushing or bearing and refit it. You may be able to ease up by applying oil freely and work- ing it considerably. If it is gyorked free and kept lubricated, there will be ne danger of its seizing again. It might be well to install an oil cup at this point. Motoring Department, The Herald— P'ease answer the following questions under the head of ‘‘Aids for Motor Car Owners ‘What injurious effect on the motor has the use of ether as priming finid for gasoline motors in cold weather? Is there any way of rem- eJying leaking piston rings in wne cylinder of a four-cylinder motor that has been very little used without in- stalling new rings?—M. O. B. Ether is much more volatile than gasoline for priming purposes in cold weather, it should answer the purpose well. Care should be used in its use, however, as the ordinary gasoline en- gine is not destined to withstand the forces of high explosives. If the piston rings are not properly fitted or are otherwise defective, it is necessary to remove the cylinder in order to make the proper repairs. It is much more advisable to install | new piston rings. Motoring Department, The Herald— 1 have a Locomobile car of 1908 model, with the make and break ig- nition system. I have checked up the valve timing and spark. I find the spark is none the best, on dither bat- terfes or magneto. I have had mag- neto recharged and tried new dry bat- teries. After trying new batteries I had the motor turn over about twenty times, and then stopped it. After this it failed to pick up as formerly. I have cleaned and adjusted carburetor, which is the one original part of the motor of this make and model, which Any information you could glve me as to why I cannot get an impulse from this motor would be greatly appreciated. connected with the make and break system are badly worn I fail to see why I should not get an occasional impulse. Thanking you in advance, 1 am—W. B. ¥ There must be a short circuit in one c¢f the electrodes. If so, there is no spark at the plug when the break mechanism operates. You should also note carefully the time of breaking of each pair of electrodes, that is to say, the spark should occur in each cylinder at the same respective time; the electrodes should make a firm contact and break away . abruptly. Sometimes it is necessary to install new springs to effect this. It is also possible that the electrodes of two cylinders are in contact at the same time, that is to say, the contact in one cylinder may be made before the break in another cylinder, Motoring Department—My car has a disc clutch. When it is released a scraping sound comes from the clutch case, and when it is engaged it slips. I have tried to eliminate the trouble in several ways without result. What would vou advise?—R. P. T. The clutch should be thoroughly cleaned with kerosene. Two or three quarts should be used, at the same time letting the motor run in order to thoroughly penetrate all the clutch parts. Engage and disengage clutch while motor is running. The clutch case should be drained and the same operation repeated until parts are clean. After this use a mixture of light cylinder oil and kerosene in proportion about three to one. If clutch does not hold use more kero- sene. If too fierce, use more oil. Note the proportion so that vou can with- out trouble, repeat the above about every 500 or 600 miles. Motoring Department—How is it possible to test a spark plug to see if it is sparking properly >—Owner. The plug should be taken out and placed on the cylinder without dis- connecting the secondary wire lead- ing to it. The body of the plug only should touch the metal of the cylinder. If everything is right the current will jump the gap in the plug and produce a fat spark when cranking the motor. It is well to remember that a spark will jump outside of the cylinder at atmospheric pressure easier than inside the cylinder since there is con-| siderable pressure in the cylinder at ‘While all parts | NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD. TUESDAY, AUGUST 11, 1914, the time when the current is required to jump the gap. Motoring Department.—If the water is drawn from the radiator at the entrance of the garage, does it harm the engine to start it and drive the car into the garage>—Reader. No harm will result if motor is not run too long. The operation should | be quick—not more than a minute. | | Motoring Department.—I have a car which began to miss fire on the mag-| neto. I stopped the engine, and in; removing the plugs accidentally took | the wires that lead from the magneto to the plugs off also. When I tried to replace them I could not remember how they were placed, and I suppose I must have put them in the wrong place, for I could not start the en- gine. Several friends tried to help me without success. A call was sent | to a garage for a mechanic, and he | coud not start the engine either. Af-| ter towing the car to the garage a| man employed there shifted the! wires, and in a few minutes the en- | gine started and has run all right since.—H. C. y It is evident you did not replace the | wires according to their order of fir- ing. A four-cylinder engine fires either 1, 2, 4, 3, or 1, 3, 4, 2. In replac- ing the wires the order of firing must be remembered and if not proceed in the following way: Determine order of firing by turning motor over by hand and note the order in which in- let valves open and close. Remove the hard rubber plate, which covers the magneto distributor. This is a device which distributes the high tension current to the plugs. Crank the motor over with the pet cocks open, until a distinct hiss is heard at No. 1« pet cock. Crank motor slowly with your finger over this pet cock until the air pressure stops. This will indicate that the piston has reached top centre of compression, and this is the point where the spark ignites the gas. Then return to the magneto and note where the arm in the distributor casing is pointing and connect No. 1 spark plug wire to this contact. Crank the motor slowly for a part of a turn and note in which direction the arm moves. With the order of firing determined tHe wires can Tteadily be attached in their re- spective order.

WILL FIGHT TAR BABY. “Battling Jim"” Johnson of Kensing. ton Fame to Show Off Tomorrow. “Battling Jim” Johnson, who boxes Sam Langford tomorrow evening at the Stadium A. C. in New York s confident that Langford will receive the same dose as Joe Jeannette did, if Jim lands one of his right hand smashes in old Sam’s stomach. Jegnnette was out, dead to the world, but got away with a foul claim that should never have been allowed. Jeannette, from that time, was afraid to mix with Jim. Thus'a poor bout was the result. The aggressiveness of both ford and Johnson assures the that a lively session should store for them. . “Battling Jim" is the fellow who trained so faithfully at P. S. Me- Mahon's Kensington farm this spring and then had his fight with Lang- ford postponed at the last moment. Lang- tans be in HERE'S SOME FUN. Chicago, I, Aug. 11.—Fifty dol- lars an inning is what it cost in Decatur, TIll, to see Walter Johnson pitch in an exhibition game against the Decatur team of the Three-I league. The Washington Americans were in Decatur Thursday, but John- son was not sent in to pitch. A dis- appointed spectator paid Johnson $50 to pitch an inning and see the Kansas phenomenon throw nine balls and strike out three men. CONNIE MACK SICK. Philadelphia, Aug. 11.—Manager Mack of the Athletics arrived home yesterday from Cleveland and went at once to his home in Germantown. He was taken ill in Cleveland and was confined to his bed there for a couple of days with stomach trouble, but was much better yesterday., He will rest a8 much as possible until the Athletjcs return home from the west and re- sume playing at Shibe park on Thurs- day. 1“DUSTY” MITCHELL IS SLATED FOR QUARTER Former High School Football Star Looks Good to Annapolis Coaches Regular Berth, Annapolis, Aug. 11.—The athletic authorities of the Naval academy are now quite certain that the football game between the teams of the Army and Navy will be plaved in Washing- ton on November 28 next. Informa- tion received here makes it practic- ally certain that the Washington Polo grounds, near the White House, will be put in shape for the game and that a sufficient number of seats will be arranged. Under the agreemeni between the service schovls covering this season ahd the following nine seasons, each will choose the place of playing in alternate years, with a pro- vision that no place north of New York or south of Washington shall be selected. Friends of the Navy team are look- ing forward to the season with some apprehension, as the larger part ot the 1913 eleven was graduated this vear, The Navy loses the following first team men by graduation: Gil- christ and Ingram. ends; Vaughan and Ralsten, tackles; Brown and Howe, guards:; Nicholls, quarterback: McReavey and Leonard, halfbacks. As a nucleus 4t will have Capt. Over- esch, end; Perry, center; Falling, halfback, and Harrison, fullback. Other good men who have played in a number of the important matches are Mitchell, quarterback; Blodgett, Bates and Alexander, halfbacks; Miles, fullback; Wicks, Ward, Sizer and Kennedy, line men. For a CURSE OF DRINK. Once Great Boxer Falls Victim to Alcoholism. Middleboro, Mass;, Aug. 1l.— George La Blanche, ancient rival of Jack Dempsey, is a broken wreck of a man and spends most of his time at the State Farm. The Marine, as he was called at the height of his fame as a middleweight boxer thirty-odd vears ago, is a hopeless victim of Hquor. “We have had him here off and on for eight vears,” said the official In charge of the farm in answer to a question the other day. La Blanche has been committed many times for drunkenness during the past decade, and scarcely is released when he 18 back again. A sentence to the State Farm means a term of one vear. The one time rival of Dempsey, the Non- pareil, is gray haired and feeble, In the insane division of the same institution is Mike Doden, once a sparring partner of John L. Sullivan and a confrere of Paddy Ryan and Joe Goss. Steve O'Donnell, another old time boxer, is running a little boxing school over a third rate saloon in the South End, Boston. WAR CORRESPONDENTS.

As it was I had hardly strength at times to be on my feet and what I did do was by a great effort. I could not sleep at night and of course felt very bad in the morning, and had a steady headache. “‘After taking the second bottle I no- ticed that the headache was not so bad, I rested better, and my nerves were stronger. 1 continued its use until it made a new woman of me, and now I can hardly realize that I am able to do 8o much as Ido.

So many people are in the habit of eating cold food in hot weather that constipation is very common during summer. It is best to vary the food and have some hot things, as, for ex- ample, soups and hot fish and meats, if that is to be the diet. Iced water should be drunk sparingly. In spite of all care people will be- come constipated, and # you find yourself in that condition you can get immediate relief by the use of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. There is no time of the year when you should be more careful of constipation than in the summer, for many of the ser- fous ilinesses as well as the fatalities result from a clogging up of the bowels. You also need general gonil health to withstand the heat, and hence Syrup Pepsin is best to take because it contains tonic ingredients that help to build up the entire sys- tem. Numerous users throughout the land will verify these facts, among them Mr. George C. Allen, 408 N. Main 8t, Reading, Mass, who ree covered his health completely, after using only two bottles; and Miss Anna Schoff, 249 8. Washington St., Baltimore, Md., who uses it for coms stipation and now has her mother and friends also using it. They mnow avold drastic remedies like cathartice, tablets, purgatives, salt waters, pills and such things. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is mild and pleasant, and children like it. You can obtain it of any druggist at fifty cents and one dollar a large bottle. Each bete tle must do what is claimed or yous money will be refunded. Families wishing to try a frée same ple bottle can obtain it, postpaid, by addressing Dr. W. B.

Back of the right fielu fence at Cub park is a wildcat stana. Time and again the Cubs, to shut off | they act those free stands, have raised and raised the fence till it towers to an enormous height straight up in the sky. But the wildcatters, starting on top of a three-story house to begin with, have always raised tie manage- ment one better, and now the outlaw stand looks like a New York sky- scraper, I give my word, just the same, that Saier's hit cleared that wildcat structure and disappeared be- vond it—not only the ever saw! I took off my cap and shook Saier’s hand as I told him what he'd done. Of course, it's tough for any pitcher to get whanged for one like that, but I had to admire and ap- plaud the tremendous deed.” EXPRESS SERVICE TOMORROW. Paris, Aug 11, via London, 12:50 A.

GENTLY ASSISTING NATURE Those who find their breath bad in the morning, & bad taste in the mouth, & coated tongue, a mean feeling in the head, will do well to try Pinklets, the new laxat! Constipation, which these symptom denote, 18 dangerous because it means that poisonous materials which should have been expelled from the body are being retained. It is & condition which, if not corrected, becomes chronic. Even chronic constipation can be cor- rected by care in the diet and persistent treatment with a gentle laxative. The use of harsh laxatives, unfortun- | ately #o common, gives temporary relief | but in the end ravates constipation. Pinklets are dainty, sugar-coa pills hardly larger than a mustard seed an: ntly, causing no nausea or griping. ey aid digestion and are s good aiter-dinner pill, ially when more food has been taken than the needs of the body require. They clearaway the ‘waste and prevent congestion. With a little persistence, which the result is well worth, they really correct chronic con- stipation.
