[} " a little trouble of their own. BASE BALL COSSIP OF WEER Omaha Breaks Western Hoodoo by Wimning Game in Colorado, ROURKE WORKING FOR HIS NEW PLAYERS Expects to Put a Winner in the Fleld Next Year, but is Satisfied with the Loyalty of His Players. Mot so worse. We broke the western hoodoo by wihning @ game at Colorado Springs, and we didn't do much to Des Moines, either; but what we did was good and plenty. Papa Bill boys didu't propose to slide entirely out of #ight, and with just a little good luck now they will be able to end in good form, even it they don’t get out of last place. It's no disgrace to get licked if you go down fight- ing. Remember what Baldwin sald when he didn't find the North Pole or anything that looked like it “Baffled but not beaten.” That's what happened to Omaha in the pennafit chhse this year. We were bafMed ail right, but we'll be right up and after them next season. Rourke isn't say- ing a great deal for publication, but in his quiet way be has announced that will start next season with much better prospects than It has enjoyed recently. The Omahas certalnly looked good on paper last sprin, and If they had only half made good would have been a factor in the | race all summer. But disappointment came, and no ope whs more sorely hit than Papa BiL for a time was unable to get men to take the place of seriously crippled players. Two at least of these men are entitled to more than the ordinary amount of credit for the persistency with which they have stuck to the game. Gonding had an arm broken by a pitched ball early in the season, and went back into the game before the In jury wags completely healed. This hurt was & serfous handicap to him in batting dur ing the early games, and te some extent Interfered with his throwing. Eddle Hickey has played for weeks with a torn tendon In his right hand, but has gamely faced one hot drive after another when he knew that stopping the ball would hurt him clear to his toes. Carter has a leg that would send the average man to a hospital; Genins has suffered for weeks from the effect of old injuries, yet these men have stood up bravely and faced the music for the glory of the game and to help out the manage- ment. This fidelity s something that money cannot buy. And others of the team have been as loyal, and have faced defeat with determination rather than despair, so that much of the chagrin at losing has been lost in the cheerful readiness with which the boys were willing to try again. And now for next stason's team. Just at present the Hickeyites are facing In rehabili- tating the Southern league, which has a few weak members, it is proposed to ‘in- clude Loulsville. It 18 argued, and with some ‘force, that the home of the Colonels is naturally with the Southern and that it would profit Mr. Tebeau much If he were to leave the American. assoclation and cast his lot with the Southern league. Of course, this is purely speculative, and probably has as much foundation In fact and no more than the pretty little story sent out from Milwaukes during the week that ‘a. brewer up there 1s about to buy out the present owners of the Western league hise and, continue the business at.the old stanll. This deal s sald to be con- tingent on Sexton showing the prospective purchaser “the goods.” If Sexton can show the goods to any one in Milwaukee he ought to be given all the money that changes hands in the deal. Another of the yarns of the week is that Lucas intends to give his Pacific National league another run. He says his towns are all good and his backers game. That's all that any league needs for success; but as Lucas’ towns refused to patronize his teams and as his backers laid down on him, and his players didn't get their money, it looks at this distance as If he were on a dead card. Maybe the cases are wion, but evidence offered fs all the other way. Another of the subjects for conversation Just now is the attitude of the minors con- cerning the proposition of the majors for a national agreement. It appears on the sur- v face that Pat Powers thinks Ban Johnson ) wants to be a king; and one can hardly * read Pat's outburst on this tople without thinking that Pat would like to do a lttle king turn himself. Specifically, the minors object to the draft price; llkewlse to the attitude of parental authority assumed by the majors in reserving the right to disci- FREE T0 Regenerative Tablets is the only recog- ised positive and permanent cure for Lost BianoNa in ail lts forms and stages It is scientifically chemists in the world. the Institution & know when the repared by the best uch that all stand sponsor faf s rem- edy, that temedy must be exactly s repre pented.

This latéer obstacle s not in- superable, nor does the first appear to be It is contended by some of the majors, James A. Hart of Chicago, for example, that the minors will be treated fairly under the draft rule, that only a minimum price and not a maximum is fixed, and that com- petition will always determine the price to be pald for a star player. And that fn sur- rendering the “farming” privilege the majors have relinquished that which is of more value to them than the draft matter can possibly be to whe minors. After the Powers push has exhausted its hot alr, the national agreement may be discussed calmly and it fs not at all unifkely that it w1l be ratified. One thing is g.a®.ying In | the extreme-no one has objected to Gurry | Herrman as the arbitrator. PRAQUE, Neb., Sept. 1—To the Editor of The Bee: Please give your opin- fon on the following dispute which occurred during & base ball game: A run- ner was stealing third base and as he was going to leap for the base the baseman stuck 4p his knee and knocked the wind | out of the runner, who fell over unconscious within two feet of the base. The baseman muffed the ball and ran out in the field to get It, came back and touched the runner, | who was called safe by the umpire. The infield party protested the umpire's decision | and demanded that the runner be called out. In order to proceed with the game the umplre changed his declsion and called the runner out. Pleaso decide If that was a fair deal. Shouldn't there have been called time or shouldn't the track been clear and the runner given the base just the same because he was interfered with? P. The umpire is the sole judge of such a play, and should give his opinicn as he sees it. Under the rules of the game he has no right to change a decision once made, in fact he is prohibited from so doing, but has ample power to punish a team for re- fusing to abide by his decision. A runner | deliberately blocked oft the base when he would have been safe without interference should be called safe; but it is a very dell- cate question to determine If the Interfer- nce is deliberate, and the rule most gener- ally followed is that accidents on the ball | fleld are unavoidable, and therefore the penalty of any misfortune should be borne { uncomplainingly by the side suffering. In | the instance here cited, without the most | positive and convincing proof that the third baseman intentlonally blocked off the run- ner, the umpire should call the runner out and stick to his declsion, whether the game ‘went on or not. GOSSIP FROM THE GRIDIRON Foot Ball Comchers Are y with s, Trying to Plek ‘The opening days of college are still a few weeka off, but in the east and the mid- dle west come reports of practice of a few of the larger teams. Northward ho! has been their cry and there are several hun- dred aspiring candidates for foot ball glory | that have. journeyea into the far north with their coaches and trainers in the hopes of hardening muscles apd strengthening lungs beyond the hopes of the most ardent of the later aspirants. Coach Willlame has taken twenty Penn- sylvania men to one of New Jersey's sum- mer resorts and is getting them into condi- tion. The University of Illinois has taken thirty or forty men to Spring lake, where they will spend two or three weeks getting into shape. Purdue's squad has gone into quiet camp along the banks of the Tippe- canoe river. But the great majority of the teams of the leading colleges have given up the idea of a two or three-weeks' trip into some country place before the season. In fact the teams of the Big Nine have mmde an agreement not to begin practice more than two weeks before the opening of school and more and more of the universities are coming to the conclusion that the early training Is of lttle benefit and doea not Justify the expense which it puts the ath- letic board to. Little is done at these foot ball camps bevond the toughening of muscles and the strenpgthening of the play~ ers’ wind. This the players can encompass almost as easily at home as in the camp and then only & 'few of the new men are seen in the camp and it is the old men who get the benefit of the work, and they do not need it as much as the younger men who are not familiar with the methods of train- ing. Three or four years ago no college ‘was considered a strong foot ball achool un- Jess it had & squad out training weeks be- fore the opening of school, but this has changed, fortunately. The men that Coach Woodruft of the Uni- versity of Pennsylvania has at Beach Haven are showing up as & promising bunch of players and they are being given o great deal of practice in punting and MEN A DISCOVERY OF A REMEDY HAS BEEN MADE THAT RESTORES LosT MANHOOD AND GIVES MAN THE VITALITY OF A LION.

Pennsy is badly handicapped this year by the loss of Dale at quarter and s working hard to fill the place. Reynolds, half in 1501, is being tried in the place, as is also Ziegler, the former Penn Charter fullback., “Hurry-Up" Yost of Michi was with the team, on which he once played, the other day and gossiped a lttle about Michi- gan and how he made his team.

Well, eastern men claim one way and western men clalm another. Coach Stagg of Chi- gaso eays that we could have beaten Uar- ard decisively last fall. Stagg s a Yale man,, you know. Yost will be somewhat handicapped in beginning the season this fall, as five of the champlonship elevea are gone from the ranks. All of his powers of organization and concentration will be necded for him to make a team that can equal the record of his last yea team and it is hardly likely that he can equal it. Stagg 1s at work at Chicago and he pre- dicts that the Midway school will have the best team In several years. The team has suffered somewhat from depletions and the materfal in sight s not as good as that of a year ago, but he refuses to talk much of his new material, so that there is a feeling that he has some new men up his sleeve, Tllinots, which meets Nebraka on Thanks- giving day, is preparing material at Spring lake, with Coach George W. Woodruft in charge, and the outlook is certainly very bright. There were eleven veterans of other years and a bunch of new men in the crowd that went to Spring lake. With such men as Joe Wilson, C. A. Fairweather, Huntoon, Bronson, Diener, Kasten, Rump, Harmon, Bethel, Welley and Barter’back and a bunch of new fellows, who all tip the scales at 180 or more, thers seems to be lttle lack of materfal. The team has a new heavyweight In Hasselwood, who welghs a little over 250 pounds and is ab- solutely green to the game. Another of Nebraska's opponents that is of the Big Nine caliber is Knox, and it begins the year with all of its old team back, but, despite this fact and the record of the team last year, the Knox students do not feel very cheerful. The new coach, Willard, 1s an alumnus of Knox and has a record as a quarterback on Columbla uni- versity's team. But he Is a person who lacks execufive ability and control and there is a fear that he will not prove a successtul coach for the team. Columbia university is always one of the teams that the Big Four in the east must reckon with and prospects at Columbia are brighter this year than for several years past. Twelve vetefans of last years ‘varsity and scrub team are back for pruo- tice and there is a lberal sprinkling of new material. . The athletic councll has rented & house close to the college grounds for the team to use as training quarters, and, with South Field in good shape, Columbia Is In good condition to take care of fits men. Coach Morley is on the ground work- ing with the new men and he will begin at once to round them iInto shape for the season. Both Yale and Pennsylvania play Columbia in New York City this fall. The new foot ball rules still continue to perplex the players and every one is busy planning the style of play that will carry through the season. As the discussion con- tinues it seems to be the general opinion that the formation play of the last two or three years is bound to ¥o, as it will be impossible to teach a team two systems of play as radically different as the forma- tion play and the open running game in the short season. The open game with seven men in the line when the ball is put in play must be learned for the sixty yards inside and naturally the whole system of play will be fashioned after this system on most of the teams. It will mean a re- version not only to the old line bucks with the backs, but also to the sensational end runs. These never proved as sure as did the plays through the lines with a forma. tion, but the gains were large when the play succeeded. A variety of plays can be evolved In this end run by sending the tackle or the end around the end irhtead of the halves or the fullback. Then thy are the old criss-crosses and the double pass and all of the other old tricks of the open formation. There are many who de- clare that the ends and tackies have be- come so highly proficient that it is im- possible to send the men around the end for long gains and only a season's play can answer the assertion well and properly, Another thing that s expected to be brought into the game again is punting. A weak team on the offensive will use the kicking game whenever it can, If it has any one who can kick well. Then the quarterback kick will probably be brought out agaln and used by many of thy teams, Harry Crandall, who played halfback for several years on Nebraska's ‘varsity, is trying to secure the position of assistant coach at the university and will undoubt. edly be taken on to coach the back fleld, Stub's work at half was well known while he was on the team and he will prove a valuable conch for the team to ai1 John Westover in working up the particular parts of the team while Booth superin- tends the building of the composite teim. AMONG THE LOCAL BOWLERS Makeup of th e and Other Matters st Present Under Dise There is still some little uncertainty among local bowlers as to just what the coming season is golng to bring forth in bowling, but it is generally conceded by even the legst sanguine that this winter will be more of & bowling winter than has ever been known in the annals of the sport in Omaha before. The Omaha Bowling league will be in the field again with elght teams, although its makeup will be some- what different from that of the preced- ing years. The St. Charles and Gate City teams will be out of the league, but the! places will be filled by other team: equally as strong. The Orphans wiil undoubtedly take the charter of the St. Charles and the Gate City's charter will be disposed of at the meeting of the league this afternoon. Next spring the state tournament will be held in Omaba and the local league will bend all of its efforts during the winter season to prepare for this event In order that Omaba may be even more successful In this tournsment than It was last soring when Lincoln bowlers were uniformly and peruistently successtul in their efforts. O July 1 & new regulation weat iato eftect which will do much to Increase the skill of the players of the game. The old- time heavily loaded ball has been relegated to obscurity and the new ball is light and welghs but sixteen and a half pounds. With this ball the gaining of points has become more & matter of skill and less one of mere strength than ever before and many of the stars of the alley will be forced to spend more time carefully prac- tieing for the skill necessary to swéep down the pins. As It was before, a swiftly thrown ball of nineteen or twenty pounds welght did not have to hit the headpin at all to make a strike. Its mere welght top- pled over the pins. It is not so, though, now with this lighter ball. It must be thrown accurately to secure the effect and it means more skill and less of brute strength. Locally there is & general disposition among the knights of the pin to look upon the new rule as a good one and satisfac- tory In general. The most of the better players in Omaha have been using the loaded ball, but they have all been practic- | Ing recently with the new ball and are getting satistactory resuits with the new ball, although they have not all gotten into the swing yet with the light ball. But the most of the players are in fair practice, as they have been playing most of the sum- mer on different city teams and around on the different alieys simply because the love of the sport.was more than thelr fear of the heat and summer thirst that goes with all things athletlc. HUNTERS AFTER GAME AGAIN Return of the Water Fowl a Shoofing Come Close To. sether. The hunter has come back to his own with the opening of the season for the shooting of duck and geese on September 1. The water birds are plentiful on the Ne- braska streams and lakes and many of the hunters have taken advantage of the open season to get away already. For fifteen days flocks of duck and geese have been winging thelr way southward and they are abundant even close to Omaha. Good bags have been brought in from near Omaha, with ten and fifteen miles, along the Mis- sour! river and on the nearby lakes, In the spring the water was too high for the hunters to get the ducks, but now there s no such excuse and the bags promise to be heavy. Some of the hunters have gone out along the Platte and the Elkhorn and they send back reports of plenty of game and nice cool days and nights to add to the joys of the hunting. It 1s a month until the open season for chicken and quail, but many of the hunters have gone into the Dakotas to hunt the birds, as they declare that the Nebraska season 1s too late for any chicken shooting and if they want them they must go to the states where the season opens in time. QUAINT FEATURES OF LIFE. In the last years of slavery in this coun- try a number of black fugitives from serv- ice and labor settled among the Quakers of Cass county, Michigan. Their descendants are llving there yet—prosperous, law-abid- ing farmers. The Calvin township super- visor and tax collector are negroes. Besides his farm C. W. Bunn, a negro, owns two sawmills; Samuel Hawkes, negro, has 500 acres and Is worth $50,00; Willlam Allen, negro, has 700 acres and 40 head of stock— all pald for. Dr. J. H. Forrest of Marion, Ind., ex- president of the State Health board, has demonstrated to his satisfaction that deaf- ness in many forms can be cured by the use of the Finsen rays. He announces that he has successfully experimented on himself, @ deaf girl, aged 17, and a boy. The girl had been deaf since birth and the boy for three years. The apparatus used by Dr. Forrest is a modification of the Finsen ap- paratus, the rays being induced from static electricity. It is sald of John Dunton of Lyndonville, Vt.,, whose townsmen are preparing to help him celebrate his 100th birthday, that he has never used tobacco and stopped drinking in- toxicants at the age of 8—which was the time of the passage of the Vermont prohibi- tion law. The first president he voted for was John Quincy Adams and the last was Willlam McKinley. At the age of 9 he walked a mile to vote against the over- throw of prohibition. Towa has a man who says he has two plo- tures painted by Rubens and valued at $1,00. Having falth in the value of his ple- tures, he has sold his household goods and will go to New York to test the genulneness of the paintings. The subjects of these sup- posed masterpleces from & master hand are “Adam and Eve" and “Ecce Homo," are owned by Joseph Lehner of Towa Falls and have been in the family for years. His first wife brought them to this country from Germany. She recelved them as an heir- loom, part of an estate that was divided among several relatives. Lehner's second wite sued for a divorce and sought posses- slon of the plctures until someone con- vinced her they were mere daubs. The hus- band’s faith, however, has not been shaken, and New York critics will be permitted to pass on the paintings and determine the value of them. Nina Farrington, the actress, threatens to reveal the love code between a prominent soclety man and woman if her name s not withdrawn from a divorce case now pend- ing in New York City courts. She declines to mention any names as yet, but gives part of the code. It is very simple when you have the key. Each letter stands for a word agreed upon, thus: “Altamy fully lonely tonight and miss you —Deary own, I dearly love you 3 Kisses and love to you. “Mops"—My own precious sweetheart.

A sad romance 18 brought to light by the | approaching ninety-fourth birthday of Miss | Mary Ann Terhune, who lives with her | niece, Mrs. Harvey Green, at Ward street, Orange, N, J. Miss Terhune has never been married because of a vow she took when she was 20 years old. She is the daughter of the late Garrett Terhude of New Brunswick. She was cngaged to be married to a young physiclan of that place, The day had been set, the bridal trosseau prepared and invitations fssued for the wedding, when the physiclan was stricken with an fliness that soon caused his death. Miss Terhune then declared that she would | never marry. The aged woman has outlived nearly all of hor fmmediate relatives, and now, although her age has made her feable, it fs her proud boast that in all her life she has never required the services of a doctor.
