George Davis, the young substitute twirler of the Boston Braves who won a michie in the baseball hall of fama by pitching a no-hit *zame last Sep- tember, will pass the ‘quarter-ceritury mark today, having been born in Lan- caster, N. Y., March 29, 1890. With James, Rudolph and Tyler working at their top stride last year, the “subs’ of the pitching staff had little oppor- tunity to show their wares, but on the ninth of September last Davis im- proved his shining hour by joining the no-hit immortals of the diamond. What’s more, he pulled the trick in 2 game with the slugging, hard-swat- ting Phillies, who in spite of their ut- most efforts, got nary a hit nor a run off the delivery of the young law stu- dent. . Thereby Davis joined that il- lustrious company which includes such names as Cy Young, Mathewson, Joss, Thornton, Breitenstein and Ter- Like his chief, Davis is a cast-olfj of the Yankees, with whom he made his debut in professional baseball. The voung pitcher made his,first appear- ance in the limelight as the twirling star of Williams college, the old Mas- sachusetts = institution which was among the first to adopt baseball a a college sport. Before he had re- ceived his sheepskin from Williams, Davis ‘was offered a berth with the New York Americans, and he joined the' club in 1912. He pitched only four games in the big league that year, and lost three of them. Davi was taken to Bermuda by Frank Chance in the spring of 1913, but the | Peerless leader decided he wasn’t ripe for the main show, and sent him to Jersey City. the Skeeters, the youngster was trans- ferred to Rochester, and toward the close of the sedason he was bought by Bostan.

Per- haps that was only a flash in tha pan, and Davis hmself declared it was a case of luck, with all the breaks of the game in his favor, but all the same it isn't a feat performeéd very often, and practically never by second -string twirlers. Personally Davis is a quiet, studlos careful chap, very fond of reading and study, and in his diamond work he has sought. to apply scientific principles to the game. After leaving Williams college he entered Harvard Law school, and he expects to be able to hang out his shingle as a barrister when his diamond days are over. 22 “Cy” Young' This is the forty-eight birg: Denten Tecumseh Young, better known as “Cy,” who was the only pitcher in captivity to win 500 games in his big league career. When he was past forty “Cy"” commanded about the biggest price ever paid for a pitcher. In 1909 the Naps paid the Red Sox $12,500 in cash and two pitchers, Charlie Chech and Jack Ryan, for Young, and in addition gave “Cy” a $5,000 bonus. day of IN THE SPORTS WORLD.

Chicago, March Briefs tha western railroad wage case were filed with the board of arbitration today by M. Sheean, attorney for the roads, and by William 8. Carter, pres- ident of the Brotherhood of Locomo- tive Firemen and Enginemen. Oral argument was begun and was expect- ed to last two. and possibly three days. Decision by the board on the demands of the men for higher wages and other concessions will be made on or before April 20, and will affect 63,000 in | l James ployed by ninety-eight roads operating track. Mr. Sheean’s brief asserted that the men failed utterly to establish their contention that their labors and re- sponsibilities and their productive ef- ficiency have increased since their wages were adjusted by arbitration in 1916, nor, said the brief, had they made good their claim that their earn- ings, despite a higher rate, had been | decreased in this period. Their con- tentions, Mr. Sheean said, had mnot been proven by their own exhibits and had been disproved by actual records quoted in the railroad ex- hibits. Exhibit Not Controverted, The increased productivity of the railroads was said in the brief to have been due, not to any increased ef- fort of the men, but to stringent economies in operation, and the ex- penditure of $660,000,000 in exten- sions, additions and improvements to property, including heavier pofver and the reduction of curves and grades. western rail- 140,000 miles of | Of this sum $220,000.000 was spent | for the purpose of increasing effi- ciency and safety, and to expedite train movements, These improve- ments, Mr. Sheean said, have actual- lv enabled the enginemen to earn their money in fewer hours than prior to 1910. Firemen, he said, actually shovel five per cent less coal now| than in the previous period. He said that the railroad exhibit showing that to grarit the sixteen demands of the men would cost $41,000,000 a vear had not been controverted. He point- ed out the decreased dividend pay- ments of recent years, and to the in- creasing use of labor-saving devices on engines. He referred to the high earnings attained by some engineers and. firemen, and asserted the bulk of the engineers average between $170 and $180 & month, and firmen be- [ tween $110 and $115. The brief claimed that these pay- that the present schédules provide full, fair and adequate pay, whether meas- ured by comparison with other trades, by comparison with other railroad employes who have like duties and responsibilities, or by comparison with engineers and firemen of the east or the south, and in making this claim directed attention to the fact that these pay-roll flgures had not been contradicted by the employes whose names appeared thereon, not- withstanding the fact that during the hearing, while thne. railroad exhibits were being introduced, Mr, Carter stated to the board of arbitration: “I have reached the conclusion that our case is lost if we treat the exhibits of the railroads too serious- 1y.” Divided Into Nine Chapters. Mr. Carter’s brief was divided inte nine chapters, as follows: Standardization of rates of wages; the sixteen propositions submitted to arbitration; earning possibilities under existing rates and rules, economic ef- fect of the increased cost of living; requisite qualifications of locomotive engineers and firemen; increased work and productive efficiency of engineers and firemen; ability of the roads to pay the increases requestedy and the future outlook. Standardization of rules and rates of pay, as proposed, the brief con- tended, would be helpful to employes and railroads alike, though giving the men only a living wage. Fancy Priced Runs. “It has been shown,” said Mr, Car- ter, “that only the veterans in ser- vice who have survived the dangers and hardships of years of service, can and do get the fancy-priced runs,” —_— e e SAGE TEA DARKENS HAIR TO ANY SHADE Don’t Stay Gray! Here's a Simple Recipe That Anybody Can Apply With a Hair Brush. The use of Sage and Sulphur for restoring faded, gray hair to its nat- ural color dates back to grandmother’s time. She used it to keep her hair beautifully dark, glossy and abun- dant. Whenever her hair fell out or took on that dull, faded or streaked appearance, this simple mixture was applied with wonderful effect. But brewing at home is mussy and out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at any drug store for a 50 cent bottle of “Wyeth’'s Sage and Sulphur Halir Remedy,” you will get this famous old recipe which can be depended upon to restore natural color and beauty to the hair and is splendid for dandruff, dry, feverish, itchy scalp and falling hair. A well-known downtown druggist says it darkens the hair so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied. You simply damp- en a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one strand at a time. By morning the gray hair disappears, and after an- other application or two, it becomes beautifully dark, glpssy, soft and » abundant. 4 Y Overnight Relief for Constipation When the bowels become clogged V] a mass of poisonous stomach waste, sick headache with all its attendant misery, belching of sour stomach gases, bloat and general discomfort are sure to follow. A mild, pleasant laxative-tonic that will carry off the congested mass without upsetting the stom- ach or griping the bowels, is the combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin sold in drug stores under the name of Dr. Cald- well’s S¥rup Pepsin. A dose taken just before retiring will afford grateful relief next morning, with- out unpleasantness or discomfort. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin s the ideal family remedy, especially for the women and children and old folks. A free trial bottle can be obtained by writing to Dr. W. B. Caldwell 452 Washington St., Monticello, ils. concerning which the railroads in- troduced evidence Mr. Carter asserted that the arbi- trators should consider the fact that the cost of living has gone ‘“sky rocketing” of recent years.' He dwelt on the long hours which enginemen work, the mental and physical strain to which they are subjected, and the skill and care necessary to safely con- duct high speed passenger trains and heavy freights. In the period 1890-1912 Mr. Carter said that the productive efficiency of the men, as guaged by the swelling revenye, has increased betweeen 40 and 50 per cent. and the roads are abuntantly- able to pay an increased scale. NOT ALLOWED TO FIGHT FOR FRANCE French Government Refuses Request of Duke of Orleans That He Be Permitted to Serve in Army. Paris, March 29. 5:15 a. m.—The French government has yefused the request of the Duke of Orleans that he be granted permission to enlist in the foreign, legion under an assumed name, says the Francaise in an arti- cle which deals at length with the duke’s efforts to obtain service under the flag of his country. Early in the war he sought to have amended the law passed in 1886 forbidding him to enter France or serve in the army. He agreed to resume his exile i permitted to fight, but his efforts were fruitless. . After the French refused to accept his services as a soldier he sought to enlist in the British, Belgian and Russian armies but the military au- thorities of those countries, out of courtesy to the French government, refused to accept him He then appealed to Premier Vi- viani for the right to enter the for- eign legion, but the premier held that such a step was_impracticable for e would be sure to be recognized and the government compelled to expe him from France under the law di- rected. against members of former French reigning families. M. Viviani is said to have suggested at the same time, however, that he again try to enter the Russian army, promising to inform the Russian government through the ambassador at Petro- grad tat Franhce would raise no ob- | jections to the duke serving Russia. The reply from Petrograd reported to have been a polite refusal of the re- quest. HAS SPECIMENS OF OPAKI. New York, March 29.—James P. Chapin, a member of an expedition sent into Belgian Congo in 1909 by the American Museum of Natural History arrived here today on the steamship New York. Mr. Chapin brought back with him the first consignment from 40,000 specimens that the commission has collected. He has several speci- mens of the opaki, an animal said to be a cross between a zebra and an an- telope; the first of the species to reach the United States. NEW YORK OFFICIAL PHOTOGRAPHER Escapes Nervous Breakdown —Strength Gradually Ebb- ing Away. Made Well and Strong by Vinol. New York City:— ““I have found Vinol to be a godsend as a reconstruc- tive tonic for a run-down constitution. I am an official photograher and for a long time I suffered from weakness and general debility, and soon realized that my strength was fast leaving me. I tried different tonics without benefit, but one day I saw Vinol advertised and decided to t.r{it. Before I had taken two bottles I had gained in health and strength so I could do 100% more work than before. S “‘Vinol is the best tonic I ever took and I cannot say enough in its praise to do it justice.”’—WILLIAM KOHLHOFF, 4 Irving Place, New York. It is the combined action of the cura- tive elements of the cods’ livers aided by the blood making and strength creat- ing properties of tonic iron contained in Vinol which makes it so successful in overcoming such conditions.

GOVERNMENT'S BRIEF filed in Suprem: Court---Combats Company’s Argumsnts. March 29.-—The gov- ernment’s brief in the suit to dissolve the International was filed today in the supreme court. It largely directed toward bating the arguments advanced in the company's brief filed of its appeal after the district court for declared it nation in restraint of de and dered its dissolution. “If defendant's argument prevails,’”™ says the government brief, “if cor- porate combinations, however 'com- prehensive, do not come within the purview of the act unless, and only so far they demonstrably ‘abuse’ their power—inevitable results will be the renewal of that great rush toward concentration which proceeded with ever-accelerating rapidity until checked by the decision of this court in the Northern Securities case.

Motives Would Be Adequate. “The desire for promoters’ profits, the desire to escape from the pres- sure of competition, the natural grav- itation of power into the hands of the powerful, and the desire for more power which great power engendered —these motives would still be ade- quate to produce such concentration even assuming that prices, ete., could be rigidly controlled. “The controversy in this case is fundamental. The question is, shall the competitive system continue— shall ‘competition, not combination, be the law of trade' " ? “Whole Defense Rests."” The brief says that the defendants claim that while one-time competi- tors controlling from $0 to 85 per cent. of the trade in the United States in harvesting machines were combined in substantially the man- ner in which the government con- Washington, Harvester company is com- in support Minnesota has a combi- or- gists, New Britajn, Conn., and at lead- ing drug stores everywhere. tends, the object was not restraint of trade, but to promote foreign IN HARVESTER SUIT to establish domestic trade Upon government the and mor: )lncv statements, say and upon its “wholg defense rests,” | Statlstics are given to demonstrate {that the harvesting company “has re- tarded rather than accelerated, the foreign trade in harvesting machines The government declares that three Ir-amnunivs named by the defendant as formidable competitors which h entered the field since its tion “are practically negligible tors in the harvesting machine iness in the United States.” trade on economical basis the good conduct organiza fac bus- RULES Washington, March | state commerce ‘commis: FOR MINIMUM CHARGES. 29 fon today di- rected all railroads to establish new rules for.minimum charges on articles too long or too bulky to be loadad through the side doors of box aars which shall provide that such artcles shall be charged at actual weight and ’authorlzrd rating with minimum | charge of 4,000 pounds. a !
