On his last trip to Washington, Con-
gresham Van Voorhis was accosted bv
a representative of Chicago Reaper
Manufactury, who asked him for in
formation concerning passports to Rus

to that far off land to try to sell Ameri-
can harvesters; that he had just re turn
ed from Argentine Republic, where he
had gone on a similar mission and
found the country swept bare by the
grasshoppers. This, together with the
fact that the wheat crop is a partial
failure in Indiana, Illinois and Missouri
and in Western Europe, indicate that
the Ohio farmers, whose growing wheat
gives evidence of an average crop, will
be able to command good price for il.

The GAINESVILLE Evening Press, OF Sat

Enoch Somers team:
"Enoch Somers is on his metal. He
does not propose to be in league with
out having the protection which the
league affords. The popular manager
signed team that would be a winner
among the fast players. Among the
players signed were Steve Griffin Of
Pittsburg, for shortstop; Bill Croak, Of
Toledo, for the infeld; and Big Bill
Myers, of Philadelphia, for first base
Griffin went to Saginaw; Croak to Fort
Wayne and Myers sent a player named
Hines and he himself went with anoth-
er club. Somers has communication
from Natiotal League President Nick
Young saying that the players would
be blacklisted unless they came to
GAINESVILLE. To-day Somers released
erbrand, Ashland, a pitcher; King, of
Columbus, a pitcher; and Hines, of
Philadelphia, who represented himself
as Myers. With Griffin, Croak and
Myers, GAINESVILLE has one of the best
clubs in the country"

lea will furnish the talent, and the men
who are now in training in the southern
training grounds are showing form al
most unheard of before. Savannah.
Jacksonville, New Orleans, Charleston,

The racing season this year will last
from May to September, viii comprise
a trip across the continent and from
Texas to Maine, will consist of more
than 800 races in which over GOO indi-
vidual riders will compete, and prove
by its success that cycle racing is still
the king of sports, as horse racing has
been characterized the sport of kings

Tom Butler, of Boston, Mass, and w.
e. Becker, of Minneapolis, Mimi. The
contest for championship honors this
year will be between these men and
the best of the racing talent on the
circuit. Eddie Bald, the Buffalonian,
who won three of the five champion
ships during the season of 1895, will
again be in the fight, and there are
a score or more of other fast men who
will valiantly strive for the honor.
The season of 1897 will be slightly diff
ferent, inasmuch as there will be two
sets of champbonships-amateur and
ofessional-instead of one as hereto
fore. This was deemed advisable at
the last general meeting, since the pro-
fessionals generally so far outclass tho
amateurs as to make the fight unequal.
Besides the two L. A. w. champion
ships, the Intercollegiate Athletic union
will give a championship contest at
Manhattan Beach track in New York
early in June, Gnd unusual interest will
center in this event as the colleges have
cultivated great rivalry. Columbia col
lege at present holds the majority of
the championships, although Fred
of Washington, took the five
mile event last year for his college, the

SANITARIUM DID HIM GOOD.
So He Thought, and Maybe He Was
Wiser Than He Knew.


The car stopped and the conductor
pulled some one on, then rang the
bell. The person thus assisted STUN
bled in the car, and after some difficulty
managed to seat himself. For a min
ute or two he gasped family, and some
Of the passengers were afraid he would
expire right then and there. How
ever, he gradually revived and glanced
about the car for familiar face. In
the corner by the front door man was
sitting reading a newspaper, which he
held unnecessarily close to his face. 1t
was no use, for as soon as the new
comer's keen eyes fell upon him u feeble
voice called:
''Mr. Wink! Mr.. Wink"
The man looked up from behind his
newspaper and with a sigh folded it
and crossed to the side of the new
conner.
How are you, Feebleton?" he asked,
holding out his hand, and evidently
cndeayoring TO speak cordially.
Feebleton smiled, disclosing tooth
less gums, and motioned Mr.. Wink to a
seat beside him.
Better, much better, my dear friend.
You ought to go to that sanitarum
yourself. 1t would make new man
of you"
Mr.. Wink grunted and looked down at
the wreck beside him. then at his own
stalwart figure, but said nothing, while
Feebleton continued:
IsNTap .,,1nnl I. I
me all over again." and he smiled de-
lightedly. AS he had no teeth or hair
to speak of and his limbs were so Grip
pied with rheumatism that he was
forced to use crutches, it seemed as
though the atmosphere had mixed up
things little in the remaking process,
but Mr.. Wink only said that he was very
glad that his friend felt better, al
though he feared that he was mistaken.
Don't you think that you are preju-
diced?" he asked, with bored air.
u should say not. You ought to have
seen me before / started"
From the expression on Mr.. Wink's
lace the other passengers gathered
that he thought that Feebleton could
not have been in much worse condition.
but he only smiled as the sick man con-
tinued:
"oh, it's great place. I wish YOU
could see the thousands of people that
come there on beds and stretchers and
In a couple of weeks go away"
"In cofins," suggested Mr.. Wink, sig
