Mr.. Ward l.. Smith. of Fredericks-
town, Mo-, was troubled with chronic
diarrhoea for over thirty years. He
had become fully satisfied that il was
only a question of a short time until
he would have to give up. He had
been treated by some of the best phy-
sicians in Europe and America. but
got no permanent relief. One day he
picked up a newspaper and CHANGED
to read an advertisement of Cham
berlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy. He got a bottle of it, the first
dose helped him and its continued use
cured him. Fol- sale by Henry Evans.

The L. A. W. political situation has
taken another turn and a breach is
threatened. Sterling Elliott, chief con-
sui of the Massachusetts division and
leader of the forces opposed to Presi-
dent Potter, is expected TO arrive In In
dianapolis today TO consult with Chief
Consul Sherwood on a plan for a West
ern organization TO defeat Potter. He
is willing to give the support OF the
MaSsa chusetts division To any Western
man on whom Illinois and Indiana can
unite. and he claims enough scattering
votes can be secured to elect West
ern candidate. Indiana Is the pivotal
State i'm the fight. As she votes so will

Tonight Sporting Gossip.

James f. Sullivan. chairman of the
registration committee of the Amateur
Athletic Union. has written TO Walter
Camp, of Yale. regarding the cooper
alton of the college with the Amateur
Athletic Union for the governing of
college athletes who play football and
baseball during the time they are not
pursuing their studies in the school
year For a long time there has been
a cry that while an athelete has been
an amateur i'm college he has not been
one during the vacation months in
summer. This is not altogether true,
but the abuse has been growing TO
such an extent that the Amateur Ath-
letic Union officials think 1t is for the
best interests of amateur sport TO put
a check to it If they can.
There Is NJ desire whatever to an
tagonize theZcolleges in the matter"
says Mr. Sullivan. We want To work
in harmony with them, and l think
they win appreciate the stand we have
taken when they thoroughly under
stand what we are about to do. Ath-
letes in colleges are amateurs by COM
plying with all the requirements which
are eXacted but during the summer
IloHlflS il Is kllDMn lndl many el them
are not because they join this or that
club and play baseball for money. They
do this and yet return to college, where
they are still recognized as amateurs.
Attention has been called to this
peculiar state of affairs several times,
but the colleges have always answer
ed that they could not help il, although
they would gladly do so If they could.
because they had no jurisdiction over
students except while they We're at col
lege. the students being free TO do as
they pleased during their vacation.
What We intend to do" continues
Mr.. Sullivan, lis TO step in where the
colleges leave off, and exercise control
over their athletes who play baseball
and football with any club which is
not sanctioned by the Amateur Ath-
letic Union. Furthermore. a college
athlete cannot during his vacation play
with a club which is not sanctioned,
and he cannot even play with club
which is sanctioned unless he is reg
istered by the Amateur Athletic Union.
For violations Of either Of these pro-
visions he will be disqualified and be
ineligible TO take part in the field and
track games of the Intercollegiate Ath-
letic Association, as that organization
Is allied with the Amateur Athletic
Union"
