The marvelous success of HERPICIDE has caused others to put preparations on the mar- ket, claiming that they also destroy the dan- druff germ. They are all spurious, and some of them are dangerous.

Next month will bring with it the regular opening of the golf season, so it is mow but two weeks or less till this loved sport will be oa In all its fervor and fanaticism. As usual, the new relgn of “King Kaddy" will be ushered in with elaborate funmc- tlons, for it is & feature of golf that it 48 used as a vehicle for more soclal cele- brations than any spors known. In Omaha Il due reverence will be pald this tradi- tion, and both the Country club and the Fleld club are planning opening affairs well calculated to start the season’s play on its way with an impetus of interest and conviviality that will help out more than a little In tiding the devotees over the Dotter portion of the seasom. May 3 1s the time set for the Country club opening, and it will be an affalr of many ramifications. To those who are in the game for the golf itself the most In- Reresting feature of opening day will be the completion of the many improvements on the links. Last year the club had a €0od course, but there was very little be- #ides the ministrations of nature itself to make it so. This season, however, Country club habitues will have the pleasure of foellng a share In the possession of as completely equipped and as modern a course as the most fastidious could desire. Of course the most important thing in the way of improvements:is the piping. This is & big task, entailing the expendi- ture of several thousands of dollars, and ‘when the golfer contemplates the fact that 1t means to him a green of live sod all the year round he realizes to the full what a great bemefit the water service will be. moisten & nge or cloth in hot wnz‘: rub on soap lightly; apply sponge vigor- ously; rinse with warm water, icker and better than gasoline—no danger. Write for booklet giving directions for washing laceq, woolens, and other e goods. Tus Cupany Packino Co. Omaha... Kansas City. ‘Work on this is now well toward com- pletion. The course at present presents the aspect of a battlefleld on which a Lilli- putian enemy has been advancing by the 21g-2ag trench method. Ditches traverse the links in all directions, leading to the different greens and almost all of the pip- ing 1s now down and ready for use. Some delay has been caused recently because the workmen ran out of pipe and have had to walt until more could be procured. This system of water works Is being very carefully and cleverly lald, and no place in the course do the trenches crose live playing ground except in a few spots where it is absolutely essential to do this in order to tap the greens. All the ap- proach pipe is laid in dead ground, either where a ball should never light, if prop- erly driven, or between the playing lines of the course. Players who grew really efficient last year and concelved the notion that the Country club course was growing a little too easy for them will be rejoiced this season to see the improvements that have been estab- lished in the wdy of new bunkers and other haszards. These are many per cent more difficult than what was seen on the course 1ast season and no one can complain that a trip around the eighteen holes this year will be too much of a cinch to be good fun. A few of the more expert golfers visited the links one day this week to have & view of the improvements and they were astounded pt the enormous mounds of earth that loompd up between certaln of the holes. Where last year was a small trench with a three-foot wall of dirt behind it there now looms a barricade that will take & boy all day to climb. Those players who 1aid away their lofters last season because there was ne real use for them can get them out again now, for their mid-irons .will no longer serve the purpose. It will take a stick with a real steep dip to it to put a ball over ome of those bunkers from a lie that is within the ten-yard limit of it. The course will be all ready by May 8 and tournaments in twosomes and four- somes for men and for women, as well as a few mixed affairs, will keep the golfers busy il day long. As usual, the morning will be given over to the women and in the afternocon the men and the mixed couples will do their little stunts. Then at night will come the dance, the first one of the season. Thus will Country clubbers beguile the hours of their opening day. Not until three weeks later, on May 25, will the Field club give its initial soiree for 1902. This is because the extensive remodeling of the club house and the erection of the new bulldings planned cannot be com- pleted untll shortly before that time. Ever since the frost left the ground work ha been hustled con the bulldings and the directors are mow satisfled that all will be well within a month at the outside. Improvements and changes in last year' club house are now finished. The wing which was used for bowling has been stripped of its alleys and converted into a buge locker room with accommodations fof Il the possible membership of the elub. This s a vast improvement cver the cramped locker service of I year. The new bullding, meanwhile, 18 fast taking on the semblance of what it is iIntended to be—a dancing pavillen and all-around summer loafing place. It is rising just west of the club house and the comtract for its erection promises its completion Iu every particular by May 15. . In the base- ment will be four bowling alleys; also ample accommodations for caddies and pin boys. On the first floor is the large danc- ing area and to one end is & little sitting room with & buge fireplac The fencing of the grounds is mow com- pleted, pickets being substituted for the wire where the fence borders the tennis courts and base ball grounds. Last year's golf course has been enclosed and is now guarded with eep off"" signs while the seeding gets a start. Meanwhile golfers are using the new tract of forty acres to the west, nine holes being lald out there. About June 1, or a little later, the two tracts will be combined into one elghteen- hole course, which will be the only golf ground of standard length in Omaha. In- structor Sherwood expects to have more be- gloners than he can handle this season. The Field club opening will be very elaborate. Everything In the way of sum- mer joy is planned, song, dancing and women, golf, base ball and bowling, or- chestral music, paeans of praise generally to the spirit of the springtime, POST-SEASON BOWLING TALK One-Man Tourney Against Americ the Wi Germans in Now that the season of the Omaha Bowl- ing league is concluded the rollers are cogitating on what to do next, and a con- siderable variance of opinion has been un- earthed by the general discussion. Some players are in favor of more contests, tour- naments and matches of different descrip- tions; others flatly oppose any continua- tion of formal play. The proposition of holding & one-man tourney and the other of having a series of match games between two teams, to be known as the Americans and the Germans, have been the immediate causes of the argument. Those who urge more bowling say that for the real enthusiasts it is an all-the- year-round game, anyw and that there is no danger of those who are devoted to the sport growing tired of it. Mean- while, they say, the ones who do not feel #0 keen after it can drop out for the sum- mer If they wish, and they will come back again next fall, while the “fans” will be there all the time, just as hot after the alley game as ever, and anxious for the beginning of another winter of general play. On the other hand, it is said that there is a time for bowling, as for all things, and If the devotees of the sport in Omaha are wise they will drop it flat now that the season has ended. . “It is for the best interests of the game to let it die here this summer,” sald one well known crack. “If we keep up this tension all summer, with repeated and continuous tournaments and contests, it wiil kill the Interest in bowling in Omaha, and mext fall will find us in deplorably weak standing compared to what we have been. You see, the season has been some- thing flerce here all winter, and I do not believe the game is sufficiently established even here to stand much more without a rest. As a matter of fact, if I cwned the local alleys I would close them up tight during July and August at least. It would pay, for the boys would start in again with more than redoubled vigor when cool weather came.” A sentiment such as this, which has pre- valled quite generally, has militated some- what against the one-man tournament scheme and has caused a delay in the ar- rangements for it. The situation 1s now such that the idea may be dropped entirely, though that le not yet certain. Dad Hunt- ington, who is chiefly lnterested In its launching, says that the tourney may be started off this week. His idea is to have sixteen entries and to play each man twenty games of ten frames each. By using four alleys each night and playing t Dights & week the tourney could be bowled off in four weeks. Although nearly & dozen of the most promineat bowlers i theWity have signified thelr willingness to participate, no entry list has yet been com- pleted or closed. It seems certaln, how- ever, that if the affalr is started it will ba a fast and keen tournament, for the men who would go in are “high rollers” one and all, from the arBor vitae standpofnt. Meanwhile the series of games between the German and American teams is prac- tically decided upon, and this should prove a8 interesting a match as was ever rolled in Omaha. On the German team are found such men as Al Krug, Beselin, Zarp, Kolls and Weber, all top-liners, while the Ameri- cans comprise Individual Champion Emery, Denman, Smead, Clarkson and Hunt. When such pastmasters as these meet In a bowling contest there will be some lively alley work, and It would not be surprising it a handful of local records were lald away during the course of the tourney, both short and Jong distance and individual and team. The idea 1s to have nine games of ten frames each, divided Into three series of three each. Three are to be played on Clark’s alleys, three on Lentz & Willlams alleys and the team which leade at that point of the tourney will have the privilege of choosing the location for the final round of three games. It s expected that this tournament will begin this week or next week at the fatest. Should it prove a success others may fol- low and, judging from the rumors that are now circulating in the bowling atmosphere, & few individual competitions between the respective champions, real or alleged, of the different teams of the Omaha Bowling league may materialize.

REVIVAL OF GAME IS MOST MARKED Promise of Last Year Redeemed by Enthusiasm of Present and Out- look Excellent for Par- suit of the Game. It earliness signifies eagerness, then the lawn tennis season in Omaha for 1902 promises to be the keenest since the palmy days of the game in the early '90s. Here it s, still April, with the weather rang- ing from a simoon to a symphony, and the temperature varying from that of Indian summer on one day to that of chill spring on the next, and yet several tennis nets were stretched last week on differen courts, and the familiar cries of *‘deuce,” “vantage out” and ‘“thirty love” were heard in several different neighborhoods during the late afternoons and the early evenings of the pleasanter days. This would seem to indicate that the regeneration of tennis, begun last year, was to prove a reality, not & mere state- ment, & permanent renewal of interest, not a temporary fluttering of fickle athletio tancy in that direction. In 1901, when, after the game had lain as good as dead for five or six years, a sentiment toward its re-establishment in popular favor seemed to be arising, it was difficult to persuade many people that this was actu- ally the case. They were unable to under- stand how a sport of this nature could revive when once dropped, and they were loath to accept any of the signs that such was to be the fact as having any real meaning of that kind. But the game came out with the begin- ning of the spring season and waxed wich the growing warmth of the weather. One by one the predictions that such and such & number of courts were to be rebullt and others in other places newly located were verified by the deed, and by the time June had come around the athletes realized that they were in the midst of a fairly emer- getic summer of tennis playing. From a city of no courts Omaha had sprung ia one season to a place dotted with scores of them. This was intensely pleasing to the tennis enthusiasts, for whom no slow-going golf nor arduous base ball could ever replace the swiftest and keenest game of them all. Their sole anxlety was that the reanima- tion might prove only temporary, & mere final rally before the death rattle. It was realized that one year could not tell the tale, that it remained for 1902 to decide whether or not tennis was to stay. They realized also that 1901 would yleld a vast influence in determining the judgment which 1902 would give in the matter. 8o every nerve was bent by tennis play- ers to keep things hot. All summer long tennis was played and played, tournaments were contested, everything possible was done to keep the game a live issue. From the first of the season to the last there was no abatement. The reward has come. So many mew recruits were enlisted by those methods that they, with the old ones, promise an army of tennis devotees this season, and with such backing the game’ success is almost assured already in Omal It seems certain even this early that the interest will prove to be on the increase instead of on the wanme or at & standstill and in tbat event nothing more will be necessary to show that the revival of tennis, begun in 1901, is real and Is to grow each ye About the first courts to get in operation this apring were the Shriner play grounds at Twenty-sixth and Harney strcets. Pl on them has been going on for a wee all three of the courts are in use yet, the two to the west have already felt the rubber footstep. The six grand clay courts at the Omaha Field club will be better than |} ever this season, not because of any im- | provement In surfacing or grade, for that | would be well nigh impossible, but because more room has been given at the north end of the row. Last year the high bank which | marked that boundary was a little too clos to the back court lines for comfort. TY\]HK\)' were crowdsd when the play was In the| back court, especially in returning victous | eerves from the other side, to handie which it is necessary to play considerably behind the extreme back line. Then, again, an opponent in the south court, with a tendency to lobbing or playing the back line a great deal, could make it very un- pleasant for the man in the north end, for every ball which he sent well back meant cramping in order to play it back across the net in good style. Now, however, the courts are to be moved bodily several yards further south, glving almost enough room between the back lines and the bank to put in another court. One feature that will bring tennis out earlier this year is the fact that most of the courts are In fair condition to start with. Even a lazy man will have no excusa for not beginning early. Last season It was, different, for that summer marked the first stab at the game in years and the old courts were in euch bad shape from long disuse that fixing them up was as hard work as making new ones. When they were finally ready, however, they were in such good condition and were kept In such good condition that this spring finds them Dneeding but very little work besides Mning. In fact, the early players who have been out the past week went on the courts with- out having them touched by knife or drag. S e——— Robbers Frightened Away.
