The United States has shaped its poll
icy in China so as to gain the confidence
of the people and the Government and
thus augment trade. Having succeeded
fairly well in this effort it is not likely
that it will spoil the effect by re-enact-
ing, in all its odiuus entirety. the Geary
exclusion act. The time when Denis
kearney and the other hoodlums of
San Francisco could dictate the eco
nomic policy of the United States has
passed. business is now king and it
clearly sees the necessity of getting in
enough Chinese labor to perform the
rough tasks which white men will not
undertake. We believe that, when the
Geary law comes up, a compromise whl
ensue TO admit enough Chinese field
and household labor, here and on the
Mainland, to settle the graver perpleXi-
ties of the labor issue.

CONCERT DRAWS BIG CROWD
Fine Entertainment for Public by BIeusr's
Band In Spencer Square

Fine Entertainment for Public by BIeuer's
Band In Spencer Square
Several thousand people crowded
in and around Spencer square last
night to hear the first free concert of
the season. 1t was furnished by
Bleuer's band under the direction of
c. Toenniges, who has recently be-
come identified with music here, after
long residence in Davenport, where
for years he was considered one Of
the leading artists of Iowa. The i'm
provement noted in the work of the
band is surprising, and none doubts
the fulfillment of the promise of the
new leader 10 have it taking place
with the finest organizations in this
section before winter. More difficult
music is attempted than was the case
heretofore, and 1t is mastered with a
finish that makes manifest the artis-
tic hand that has been guiding it of
late, and this without any discredit
TO those who have preceded Prof
Toenniges as leader.
The concert last night consumed
two hours and half. and when the
closing number was rendered at 1890
: large audience was intact and
stIn demanding more. Seldom before
has band received such an ovation
from the public. The encores were
cheerfully responded to a feature
was "Sousa's Triumphal." a compo-
sition that Prof. Toenniges has dedi-
Gated to the great bandmaster, and
which received its initial rendition in
public. 1t is a smooth and catchy

NOT BADLY DAMAGED:
Mr.. CABLE ON CROPS.

A New York dispatch to today's
Chicago Chronicle says: President
r. K. Cable, of the Rock Island rail-
road, who is at present in town, says
that from his personal observations
and reports from division superin-
tendents the statements regarding
the crop damage have been greatly
exaggerated. The corn crop in our
territory has undoubtedly been dam
aged, but not TO the extent reported,
he said today. 1t will be found
later that estimates Of loss were con-
siderably exaggerated. / cannot give
you any figures, as have none pre-
pared, but general conditions do not
seem at all as bad as reported. The
talk of wholesale loss of cattlef from
drouth has been fanciful.'

The Bloomingtons were up against
it. Graham,s pitching was insoluble
and it tantalized them. Dog days did
the rest.
1t was the first time this season
that a game has been forfeited
on the home grounds. and Umpire
Mesmer did not take the step till no
other course was left him. In the
second inning Brown, the third base
man for the visitors, thought he
knew more than the umpire about the
quality of the balls that were being
handed up to Tate, and refused to
be still. He was put out and Man
ager Connors gave motto: that
the game would be played un-
der protest. Nc ireevy, who is good
enough to play any place, went
to third with a bad taste in his
mouth. So when the score was tied
in the eighth with two of Rock
Islands men on base. nobody out,
Hoy at bat. and runs coming like eye
teeth, the visitors concluded to object
to a close decision faVoring Rebsa-
men at first. McGreevy led the
chorus and was ordered out of the
game. Beedle was sent to right
field, Elsey to third and Thompson to
first, but the wrangle recommended,
and upon McGreevy's refusal to leave
the bench and the visitors to play
ball within the time limit, Umpire
Me5mer gave the game to Rock
Island. the score being according to
the rule to o.
Game q Pretty One.
The contest. as far as il went, was
as pretty and as close a one as could
be desired. The feature was Tate's
phenomenal batting, he putting two
balls over the fence for home runs
and securing the only scores for the
locals. The visitors two were made
on errors and bungling in right field.
without which they would have had a
clean sheet in the column of runs.
Graham proved one of the hard
est propositions in the league, only
one hit that had any license to be
called such being made of his de-
livery. McCafferty, for Bloomington,
was putting mp pretty stiff arti-
Gle to connect with, although
seven hits had been gathered from
him when the teams left the field.
Tate's first drive over the fence
was made in the fourth, when Meth
er side had scored. He caught nice
one Just where he wanted it and
pushed it out till it disappeared, a
mere dark speck, over the back fence
near the left corner. Without doubt
IL was the longest drive ever made on
the home grounds. His second was in
the sixth after the visitors had two,
and tied the score. II was over. tie left
fence and was not nearly so long as
the other, but it was sufficient. In
both the fourth and sixth innings
only four men came to bat. In Rock
half of the eighth O'Brien
started it with one in a good p ace
and Rebsamen hit to McCafferty on |
the bounce, but the latter failed to |
wrap his fingers around it and the
runner was safe O'Brien went to |
third while the ball was being thrown |
to first. Then the trouble that ended |

When it comes to kicking, If Rock

Could You Look Inside Yourself You Would
See Why The Nerves Have Such a Wide
Influence Over Health.

The influence of Nerve Control over
health was never SO fully recognized
as now. 1t is clearly illustrated in
the thousands of cures made by DR..
A. w. Chase's Nerve Pills-a medicine
that has leaped into public favor sole
ly ON it's wonderful nerve restoring
properties. The reason Nerve Pills
break down the barriers of III health,
is because they restore Nerve Energy,
the main spring of health. They sup
ply the something that is wanting
which makes the human machinery run
smoothly. they act through that great
network of human organism, reaching
every part of the body-the nerves.
DR.. A. w. Chase's Nerve Pills do
not act as monentary stimulant that
excites and whips up the nerves for
the time being oniy-they 6rst stop
the wasting process and then build
up nerve energy by replacing nerve
waste with active, responsive tissue
the kind that vibrates health to mind
and muscle.
Mr.. II. s. Morey Of 503 S. High
St, Akron Ohio, says, Il am very
much pleased with DR.. "A. w. Chase's
Nerve Pills, got Mt Lamperrers drug

ly built me up and given strength.

kept up the chase merrily and sue
cessfully. AS it was very early few
people were astir, but one mans at
tention was at last attracted and he
collared the young man and the grip
and held both.
A policeman did the rest and Mr..
Bfodt went on to his boarding house,
while the young man went to jail.
But not being accustomed to such vio-
lent exercise the Akron ex-Councilman
was obliged to spend most of the day

An odd coincident of the affair was
that the man who stopped the thief
proved to be an old friend of Mr..

BASEBALL IN 1902
THE OUTLOOK IN AKRON.
Reasons Why This City Should Have Good
Team Next Year.

Under these conditions players put
forth their best efforts and quick
snappy ball Is the result. As the
game is played here at present, not one
of the players is in the proper sort Of
condition. AS they have no hopes or
ambition for following the game per.
manently, they lose their interest after
a few innings and play in slovenly
manner. notwithstanding this, the
attendance has been very large, and
is an indication of what it would be
with a good, hustling team who knew
each other and played the same posi-.
tion each game.
"A team conducted on lines similar
to that of Kent or Painesville would
bring good ball here, as the manage.
ment could perhaps afford to pay sal,
aries averaging $50 to $65 a month
and the players, having only from
two to four games each week could
make at least $50 to sos extra in the
different factories here. They might
do much better.
1t is to be hoped that some one
with the necessary experience and
hustling ability will see this oppor,
tunity and place team here ON these
lines and it goes without saying that
whoever takes hold of the matter IN
the right way can make big winning
The Buchtel grounds are the only
ones available and that splendid field
will, it is hoped. be the scene of many
fine games during next season. It Ii
remarkable that such large number
of ladies are present at every game
and to their devotion to the game
is due much of the credit for the re-
vival of interest. Now is the time ts
start, not next spring when all the
good amateurs will have secured posi-
tons
