THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: SUNDAY, M ATRLETICS AT UNIVERSITY Base Ball Bquad is Working Out in Fine Shape Now, COACU GORDON PLEASED WITH MATERIAL Has Plenty of Pltehers er Way and Will Begin to Develop Batters at Onee, 4 Catehers Base ball occuples the center of the stage o university athleties just now. The Townsend crowd are all hard at work in the cage under the personal supervision of Coach Eddle Gordon; the throwers are get- fing their arms into tip top shape for the tossing and the schedule for the season, with the exception of one date, is com- plete. The best work so far this year has been developed this week and some of the candidates are showing up in star form Every afternoon Eddie Gordon goes into the cage with the twirlers, two at a time, and a catcher, and gives them instruction in the art of putting the leather across the plate.. The first week's training consisted merely of the right way of throwing and the delivery; the last wesk has been spent in a slow ball and the next six days will be devoted to speed, after which curves them- selves will be put into the list, “It Is pos- sible,” sald Gordon Friday afternoon as ho atepped out of the cage, dressed in his Qmaba. uniform, “that we will get out of doors next week. We are developing the pitchers first, 8o that they fay be used on the diamond to bring out the good parts of the rest of the team. We are anxious to get at the batting, for thal ways the woak point of a college club. The tossers will begin to throw to batters at once, and thus both' the stickers and the arm men will get simultaneous practice.” Soveral men among the candidates for the box ave showing up especially well. Longa- naec'cer f8 one of the best and has the ad- vanthge of pretty good experience at Wahoo.. Ling s a little fellow who comes trom pitching stock, his father before him Dbaving been good with the sphere. He has mighty good form to overcome his size with. Chase js a great big man with a su- ‘perfor motion who promises to make good. ‘Gore shows up pretty well, and Morrison s another. Sampeon is a husky one with a good arm, but poor form. He is eort of diamond in the rough and has good mate- ffal in him to be brought out. The back- atop stunt is still performed in a nice way by the trlo, Bender, Whitcomb and Wilson. Bonder will likely be hield at the plate on account of his old head at the businéss. ‘Whitcomb is from Friend, a little fellow who throws well and uses his eye all the while. Wilson has a good arm and bas done well at firsi base. As to the candidates for the field posi- tlons, there'is little definite as yet, because of the lack of actual work. Townsend hopes, however, that at least five old men will be in the game—Jimmie Bell, Hood, Shelmer, Dender and himself. With this bunch and the new stock that is at hgnd in the way of Mickle, Wright, Stein, a pait of Johnsons and Ramsey, there is no reason why the team need lack for victories. The first squad will be made up of about twenty gellows and the scrubs will play around in the mornings and until 3 o'clock every aft- ernoon. A man will be pushed up as fast as he shows good stuff to be developed, The schedule is complete with the excep- tion of a date for May 7. This was to have gone to Beloit, but has been cut out. be- cause the foreigners had too many heavy games right around that day. The trip will consist of & two weeks' jaunt and, as given out by Manager Clark Bell, is: Highland Park at Des Moines, May 2; Iowa City, May 4: Decorah (Luther college), May 5; Knox college, May 6; May 7 open; Notre Dame, May 8; Purdue, May 9; Illinols university, May 11; Washington college, St. Louls, May 12; Kansas university, May 13 and 14; Washburn college, May 15; St. Mary's and Maahattan, May 16. The home games will be Omaha, April 13 and 14; Indlans early part of April; Kansas, April 17 and 18; Washburn, May 1; Colorado, April 18; High- 1and Park, April 20; Knox, April 22; South Dakata, , April 27, and possibly Creighton Wflrw Hair In One Night.” Fameus Doctor-Chemist Has Discovered a Secret Compound That Grows Hair on Any Bald Head.

This is about as good & trip as has been given for several years, there is something worth working for in it. “And we'll do something,” said Old Jack, “for they're as fine a bunch o' arms as I ever laid me eyes on.” The end of the basket ball season came to Captain Hewitt's men last night im their game at Minneapolis against the Gophers. The sport nearly died a week ago, but train- ing has been kept up for this trip and ended with the two foreign gam one Friday night having been played against the Min- nesota agriculturists. Hiltner, Elliott, Ren- edict, Hoar, Ferguson and Hewitt are the men who went. They hardly hoped to win when they left Thursday noon, for (he northerners make much of this sport and train hard for it, while at Lincoln the team has been new and had little training. But they made a creditable showing, neverthe- less, all things considered, and Dr. Clapp may foel proud of the season's work. Tho better part of the schedule for the winter has been won by the Nebraska boys, and there is confidence in university athletic circles that they will be better another year. Benedict has been a great long distance goal thrower and did wonders with the Gophers the same as he did in the fall with the pig skin, Hewitt has had a good head, Fergu- son has tossed accurately, Elliott has been activo on his feet and Hiltner and Hoar bave both played hard ; In track work the week has been spent training indoors for individual events. Par- ticularly the pole vault, long distance run- ning and jumping have been given the prominent place. Dr. Clapp has divided the candidates into squads and more systematic work is possible. At the pole vault a new man—Lehmer—has been coming up, and “Bill" Johnson, the colored boy, and Bene- dict- are still at the top. For running, States, Corr, Flansburg and Kanzler have all been training and show up well. Leon- ard snd Benedict have both been jumping some and promise to do more of it. Bene- dict 1s the best all around athlete in the school and is good at pretty nearly every- thing going. Burg and Manning have not yet gone into training, but are needed in the business. Several meets are in view. Ome Is sured at Sioux City against South Dakota; another is booked for Kansas, at Lawrence, and a third at Crete in the way of a state tournament. It is also possible that a meet with Minnesota may be held in Lincoln, which would be a great event in the history of the school, as the men from Minneapolis pay all sorts of attention to this type of athletics. HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETES BUSY Preparations for the Olass Contest at Germania Hall Now Occupy Much Attention. Youthful muscle and agility will be put to the test on the might of Friday, March 27, when the Afth annual athletic carnival of the Omaha High school will be held at Germania hall on Harney street. As usual this will be an interclass comtest, fre men, sophomores, juniors and seniors Vi ing for the supremacy. But an important toreign feature has been secured for this carnival, the return basket ball game with the Sioux City High school team. This will be the biggest event of the evening, although its result can in no way count in the final standing of the contesting classes. There are many different events planned for the carnival. Besides that basket ball game there will be an interclass basket ball tournament, a-girls' basket ball game between freshmen and sophomores and ath- letic contests as follows: High dive, wrest- ling, hand walking, relay race, tug-of-wa Each event will be participated in by rep- resentatives from each of the four classes. First place in any event will count 5 points, second place 3 and third place 1 point. At the end the totals will be figured, and the class with the highest number of points takes the paln.. . During the week just past each class has been busy selecting its representatives tor the different contests. This was done not by selection nor election, but by comper tition. At the Young Men's Christian asso- clation gymnasium the athletes of the dif- ferent classes have striven for a place, and the various teams are now made up. Each class<has selected a leader, they be- ing: Seniors, Hugh Wallace; juniors, Dick Hunter; sophomores, Clarence Walsh; treshmen, Thompson. The evening will open with the first half of the Omaha-Sioux City basket ball game. A few weeks ago the Omaha boys went to Sloux City and were vanquished by this team, 31 to 19, an exceedingly close score. They vow all manner of revenge this time. The personhels of both teams will be just as it was at that last encounter d the Omaha team the same as when it met the Lincoln High schools boys & week ago. The lineup will be: OMAHA. Laubay ... Cherrington Meyer IOUX CITY. This stunt consists of diving over a bar without touching it onto a mat on the floor on the opposite side. The game Is to clear the bar as high as possible, The diver goes head foremost and lights on his hands on the first round, and winners will then meet winners. The teams will be Seniors—Kelley, Robertson, Fairbrother, Harris. Juniors—Chambers, Cherrington. Sophomores—Waleh, Patterson, Peterson. Freshmen—Rogers, Burnett. The game with the Sioux City team on carnival night will not close the season for the Omaha High school team. The boys go to Lincoln on March 13 for a re- turn game with the High school there, and play Bellovue here on March 20. Then there | remain two games with Fremont and Coun- |®il Bluffs, the dates not being determined | yet. BASE BALL IN SPRING TIME Manager Rourke Unburdens Himself in Re Putnam, Conrad, Tompsett, Bowman, rd to a Very A Injustice, arent “Right now, before the season begins," said Manager Willlam Rourke of the Omaha base ball team yesterday, “I want to say a word In regard to my losing Brown, Owen and Stone at the close of last season. At that time there were a great many people who accused me of sell- ing those players to the big league teams that took place. In fact, almost everybody interested in base ball made that assertion. And 1 still hear people saying the same thing. This has been a sore point with me for a long time, and 1 want to answer it now and say & word in my own defense. “In the first place, 1 did not sell’ a single one of them. They were simply taken away from me, bought over my head. I raised their salaries more than I could afford in order to hold them, but I could not compete with the prices the big teams offered them. No man in his senses would expect me to enter into a salary contest with one of those teams and win out. I offered Stone §2,000 to stay. Boston took him for $2,800. I offered Owen $1,800. Chicago White Stockings took him for 00. 1 offered Brown $1,800. St. Louls tional league team took him for $3,000, the highest salary of the bunch. “No one on the outside, even one keenly interested in base ball and in the Omaha team, could have been as sore about this as I was. I spent time and money de- veloping these players, and then didn't get a 6-cent plece for them, nor even so much a ‘By your leave.’ It was simply a rank outrage that the big leagues perpetrated on the smaller ones. There was no use saying a word. They'd simply give you the iaugh. It was simply a case of hog. When that national agreement was abrogated the big leagues jumped in head over heels and gobbled up summarily all our players that they wanted. Now that they've got them all, they want peace again. There are sev- eral phases to that peace proposition and T've just exposed onme of them to you. “In the meantime, while these big league teams take away my players without giving me a cent or & chance, what do I do? I pay cash money for almost every man on my team. I bought Ace Stewart from Man- ning, Genins from Cleveland, Brown from Terre Haute, Fleming from Hartford, Wright from Rock Island, Gonding from Kansas City. And that isn't all of them. Almost every man on my team cost me money. But I suppose there is no use drawing the comparison and howling about the Injustice of it. We've got peace again now. I merely wanted to make it strong that I didn't sell these men, that they were taken away from me and that I oftered all I could afford, and more, to try and keep them. “My team remains the same. I still have the two trades, for. pitchers in view, but haven't efther fixed up yet. I ‘expect to trade Alloway for Shafstal with Peorla all right, although I understand now that Al- loway refuses to go to Peoria. He'll prob- ably change his mind. Shafstal is the big, rangy follow who pitched all season with Peoria last year. He is a right-Hander and a fine flelding pitcher as well as being a 8004 hitting fellow for a box man. Then I still expect to bring to a head my trade of Whistler for Hopkins, or possibly for Bruner, with Montgomery, Ala. All this will mean eight pitchers for me to go on, and I certainly ought to get a bunch of £00d ones out of that. “I started work on my grounds last Thursday, and they will be done in ample time. I'll bulld fity feet of new grand- stand, and also steady the old portion of the stand by putting stone foundations under all the main posts. This will be quite & job, as all the posts must be jacked up to get the foundation in under. There -two of them to be so based, eight “President Sexton now wants to do away with the spring meeting of the Western league. He wired me asking me what I thought about cutting it out. You see, there's really nothing to do but adopt a schedule and a ball. Meanwhile Sexton and Hickey are fixing up their two sched- ules 6o as not to conflict. Our meeting is called for Denver. Of course there is some little expense to all of us In having the meeting, especially a out there. But still I don't see how we can do without it, just on account of that schedule. I never saw one adopted by mail successtully yet. So 1 told Sexton that it was my opinion the mgt. In this contest Hugh Wallace will represent the seniors, Harry Counseman the juniers, Robert Switzler the sopho- mores and Cyrus Bowman the freshmen. Next will come the second half of the Omaha-Sloux City game, and following that will be the wrestling matches. In this Puirbrother. will represent the seniors, Put- nam the junidrs, Grossman the sophomores #od Tompsett the freshmen. There will be two rounds. First freshman and sopho- more will meet and junior and senior. Then the winners of those two bouts will wrest for first place. This will prove a highly exciting event. ’ Following this will be the interclass bas- ket ball tournament. A freshman team will play & sophomore team, & junior team the seniors. Then the winners will meet for first honors. The games will be made of very brief duration. The different teams are: Senlors, Laubau, Wallace, Kel Devalon and French; junfors, Durks Meyer, Cherrington, Thomas and Thomp- son; sophomores, Walsh, Patterson, Cooper, Lindsay and Goodman; freshmen, McAvin, Wilson, Bowman, Burnett and Percapile. Next in order will be the hand walking contest, a race of fifty feet, with the con- testants on their hands. The different boys have been practicing hard for this, and some of them can make remarkable speed considering the means of locomotion. Ernest Kelley will represent the seniors in this event, Harry Counseman the juniors, Dick Patterson the sophomores and Cyrus Bowman the freshmen. Then comes the girls' basket ball game, of briet halveg, and next is the relay race, with & team entered from each class. There will be four men to & team, and each man will run three laps. The race will be agalnst time. The teams will be: Senlors—French, Devalon, Fairbrother, Wall; Juniors—Chambers, * Counsemian. Sophomores—Walsh, Patterson, Cooper. Freshmen—Burnett, Tompsett. The final event of th carnival will be a tug of war, with four men on each class team. In this freshmen will tug against sophomores and juniors agalust senlors for Putnam, Hunter, Lindsay, Wilson, McAvin, we ought to have the meeting, but that it should be in one of the river towns. There's no sense in taking us all away out there. The real right way to do would be to have both leagues meet together to adopt sched- ules, as the American and Natlonal leagues did.” WIPING OUT THE FUR .ANIMALS Trappers Have Well Nigh Extermi- ated the Credtures on W They Depend. “It trappers keep on at the gait they are going in Nebraska,” sald a well known dealer in hides and furs yesterday, “there will not be a fur-bearing animal left in the state In a comparatively few years from ngw. You would be surprised to know how many trappers there are in Nebraska. One would think there wouldn't be anything for them to do, and there isn't much any more, but there was a day when there was a good deal of fur to be had in this state, and there is still a whole army of trappers. They send us in their fure from parts of the state, but they aren't sending as many varieties nor as many of any varlety now as they once did. “Beaver and otter, In fact, are prac- tically gone now. A fur from ome such animal brings from $10 to $12, but the trappers cannot find them any more. I haven't seen twenty beaver furs from Ne- braska this season. Smaller furs are still rather plenty, but even the polecats are growing scantier. We do not have halt the number of them now we did four years ago. They are worth from $1 to $1.50. There are still a great number of muskrat skins coming in. I do not suppose we shall ever see the end of them. They bring from 15 1o 20 cents. ‘One fur in which there is lots of traffic from Nebraska, and the only one, It seems, they cannot exterminate or even lessen, is that of the coyote, or prairie wolf. It is not the trappers only who handle this fur. Of it alone it may be said that every- body takes a shot at it. Farmers, ranchers, bunters, all go for the coyote. The skins bring from $1 to §3 each. “There is a great demand for coyote furs for expert, because they make such excel- Switzler, | many of them any more. lent fox skins when dyed.

The big old gray wolt, is pretty scarce in Nebraska now. His hidd is much more valuable, but we don't get “Speaking of foxes, a very remarkable fox imcident came to my notice last week A man brought me in three red foxes, and he got them within ten miles of Omaba, near Bellevue. That is most wnusual. Wa don't see red foxes anywhere around this state any more. This man said there were two dens of them in the brush along the river down there, about a dozen foxes in all, and that he would land the rest it he could."” Last Wednesday the river broke up and the huntsmen are going about behind broad smiles. They will shortly now go out after | the straight flying water fowl. Shells are | being loaded by the thousand and guns | made ready. Dick Kimball went out to his | ranch Tuesday and nearly went gun mad when he saw three big Canada geese. And they are everywhere. They will not, ap- parently, stick to the river this spring. They are being sighted elear out in the west part of the state, and around Grand Island, and in lowa. Beyond a doubt there are a lot of water fowl fiying this season. This is the season of the round-up of the festive coyote. There is one scheduled for McCook on March 15 and another at West Point soon. Often hunters participate in these for the mere joy of the shooting Last week Harry Townsend went up 1o Clarkson and chased wolyes a while on horseback. It was snowy and he couldn't make time on their trails, but he saw plenty of them close to the railroad and had flying shots with a long range revolver. GIRLS TO PLAY BASKET BALL College Carnival Fixed Up for Lin- ©oln, Where Several Teams Wil Meet. Nebraska girls intend to monopolize the end of mext week for a few basket ball stunts of thelr own. On March 0 there will be a memorable intercol- leglate girls' carnival in the armory of the University of Nebraska at Lincoln. The first girls' team of that institution will meet the Haskell Indian girls’ team. This will be the first time that the red girls have ever met white in basket ball or any other contest, although their broth- ers have been mixing it for several sea- sons. The second game will be between the first girls' team of Kansas university and the second girls' team of the University of Nebraska. Both contests will be played the same night. The Nebraskans always put up a strong girls' team and they stand to win both games. The next night, Saturday, March 21, there will be some dolngs in Omaha. The Bellevue first girls’ team will come in to play the Young Women's Christian asso- clation second team that night. A cork- ing contest 1s promised. OUT OF THE ORDINARY.

Nearly everybody knows that charcoal fs the safest and most eficient disinfectant and purifier in nature, but few realise its value when taken into the human system for the same cleansing purpose. Charcoal is & remedy that the more yo take of it the better; it 1s not a drug at all, but simply absorbs the gases and impuri- tles always present in the stomach and in. testines and carries them out of the system. Charcoal sweetens the breath after smok ing and drinking or after eating onlons and | other odorous vegetables. Charcoal effectually clears and improves the complexion, It whitens the teeth and further acts as a natural and eminently safe cathartiec. It absorbs the injurious gases which col- lect in the stomach and bowels; it disin- tects the mouth and throat from the po'son of eatarrh. All druggists sell charcoal fn one form or another, but probably the best charcoal and the most for the money is Stuart's Ab- sorbent Lozenges; they are comp:sed of the finest powdered willow charcoal and other barmless antiseptics in tablet form, or, rather, in the form of large, pleasant tast- ing lozenges, the charcoal being mixzed with honey.
