The stomach Is the Man.

A weak stomach weakens the man,
because it cannot transform the food
he eats into nourishment. Health and
strength cannot be restored to any
sick man or weak woman without
first restoring health and strength to
the stomach. A weak stomach can
not digest enough food to feed the
tissues and revive the tired and run
down limbs and organs of the body.

and all stomach troubles.

-"America is fast following the steps

If tonight's democratic city-town-

the respect of the party generally, it
must not only put its organization in
good hands, but must permit an aim

party to direct its proceedings. Nor
must the good work stop there The
city-township organization must be
maintained on the same basis. There
must be no bossism, no one-man rule.

The party must have free and I'M

LEADING TENNIS PLAYERS.
Larned Heads List by Being in an Ex-
elusive Glass.

rao.,sa of the somewhat erratic perform
ances of the leading tennis players OF this
country during the season that mas just
closed the work of the ranking commission
was filed with many perplexlng problems.
The committee held several meetings at
the Waldorf-Astoria, New York. to decide
upon the order in which the men should De
placed on the list for 1903. Last night Its
work was considered to be complete, having
received the Endorsement of the officials or
the United States National Lawn Tennis
Association The ranking committee was
composed of Holcombe Ward, chairman of
the Orange Lawn Tennis Club; Beals c.
Wright Longwood Cricket Club, and Harry
+. Allen, Belmont Cricket Club. In the
singles forty-six players were ranked and
In the doubles ten teams.
prior to the meeting of the ranking COM
mittee the executive committee ruled that
only players resident of the United states
should be considered. This ruling put ex-
United States Champion Larned, in the
singles into the first place in that division
Of the sport. He is In a class by himself.
Next to Larned and In order. are placed
Holcombe Ward, William ]. Clothier and
Beals c. Wright, while slightly below this
trio. and in a class by himself, Is placed
Kreigh Collins, the Chicago and western
champion. The relative changes over last
years ranking is that Ward was then
fourth and Is now second. Beals Wright
moves backward from third place to fourth,
giving way to Clothier, who was In the fifth
place last season. but is now third on the
list.
AS the committee omitted to give any
rank whatever to Little, Hackett and Ho-
bart, the second five men are all new
corners. Edwin P. Larned, the Princeton
champion, gets the sixth place. although
he was not even considered by the ranking
committee In 1902 The playing of the
younger Larned at Newport was in the ma
ture of revelation to many followers of
lawn tennis. He was considered as entitled
to the place. and it is generally believed
that he will. with experience. surpass his
brilliant brother. Following Edwin Larned
come Harry F. Allen. who was seventeenth
a year ago; Edgar w. Leonard, who was
eighteenth; r. III. Carleton. who was not
ranked. and R. c. Seaver. who was twenty
second. The arrangement of these second
five denotes me marked improvement of
the younger element in the sport No ex-

FOXY "PA" DAILY.
Veteran THURMAN scheming for All the
Money in Dixie Stakes

w. c. Days two race horses, Colonsay
and, Illyria, will be the only starters in the
Dixie stakes at the Benning track tomor.
row, and thereby hangs q tale-a tale of
how Pa Daily takes advantage of every
little twist and angle of the racing game
to turn an honest dollar
Under the rules of racing a horse that
walks over for a sweepstakes or fixed
event is entitled to only half of the amount
added by the association. No matter if
one, two or three horses start, if they are
owned and raced in one interest the finan-
cial result is the same-half of the added
money and all of the sweepstakes
When Pa" DAILY learned that the vicissi-
tudes of training had caused all of the
trainers to notify the track officials that
they would not be able to start against his
pair he was overioyed until he read the
rule which cut off half the value of the
stake; then he was sad.
After bordering over the situation he
finally concluded to sell one of his horses
to a friend before the race and to buy him
back again after 1t was decided BY this
means with the horses running in two in
terests, the value of the race would be re-
stored.
Pa" unfolded his scheme to an ex-offi-
cial of the track and a newspaper man yes
terday. He said:
Judge, if I was to sell Colon-no, IL
lyria, to Jack Bennett before the race all
of the money would be added, would 1t
not! linen AFTER the race could buy him
back again"
Daily started to say Colonsay. but check
ed himself when he suddenly remembered
that he was a better colt over distance
of ground than Illyria.
The ex-official warned Daily not to make
the move, as it would get him in trouble
with the stewards But PA" was obdu-
rate, and said: Why, John Madden sold
The Minuteman at Saratoga to Tommy
Griffin for a race and then bought him
back
The judge then told the old man of the
turf that the cases were not similar; that
The Mnuteman won only a maiden over
night race, and showed such great form
that Madden was glad to get him back
again in his stall.
This contemplated move of Days soon
reached the ears OF the stewards. One of
them said: 1T is not for the stewards to
presume that Days contemplated move to
sell one of his horses before the race is
right or wrong, but If It is transgression
of the rules we will rule him or
S. s. Rowland. the presiding steward,
said:
SHOULD DAILY sell one of the horses be-
fore the race the intent and purpose OF the
sale will be strietlyfinyFstig gated.
Every racing man in Washington will
look with interest at the names of the re-
puted owners of the horses that start IN
the Dixie stakes tomorrow, because the
officials have had a long talk among 'hem-
selves on the subject,
