The Senators continued their poor work
in the opening game at Detroit yesterday
and the Tigers won the contest by the
score of 8 to 0. Case Patten was lucky
enough to hold the Detroits down to three
hits but was unlucky in having costly
errors made by his support and also in
making a misplay himself. 1t seems as
though the Washingtons have once more
gone back into the old rut of fielding poorly
behind good pitching and batting hard
when the Senatorial twirlers are being hit
by the opposition. Yesterday Clark and
Ryan each got two singles. while the other
seven players in the game got nothing.
The same applies to the Detroits. Crawford
and Mcclure dividing the three hits be-
tween them, but Mullin was the only trans
gressor in the fielding line and his mis-
plays did not count in helping the Sena-
tors to score
Manager LOTUS had to make another
shuttle of his players. as that reliable
player, Bill Coughlin, had a mashed hand
and had to quit. COughlin was hurt in the
last game at Cleveland and will be out of
the running for several days. His abb
sence necessitated sending Martin to third,
and as Delehanty is still on the sick list
Jimmy Ryan had to assume his old po-
sition. although his injured hand is still
far from we'll Martin did fairly we'll at
third, and Ryan, with his bad hand cop
pered." two singles. 1t is a remarkable CO.
incidence that once before when Ryan had
his hand hurt he was pushed into the game
and tore off two triples and two singles.
Clark continued on first and he handled
everything in clever fashion.
The Tigers hung up their first run In
the initial inning, Lush taking first on
balls and reaching third on a sacrifice and
wild pitch Crawford singled and Lush
reached home.
Blanks went up for the Detroiters for
four innings and then in the sixth they
made two more runs and quit. Martin and
Patten butted into errors on short hits of
Crawford and Carr which enabled Lush
to score. and then James Mcclure hunted

There is a probability that. although
President James A. Hart Of the Chicago
Nationals will not enter any objection fur
Their than an official protest to the playing
of Davis with the New Yorks against the
Cubs next Saturday, in Chicago, the
American League will not permit IT and
that the latter will go to the Chicago courts
to secure an injunction against Davis
playing with any other ball club than the
White Stockings.
American Leaguers are working quietly
but none the less diligently to prevent Da-
Wis from playing with McGraw's team It
has been known that President Johnson
Under instructions from President Comis-
key. has been engaged in preparing the Da-
Wis case for legal test. and it is probable
now they have learned Hart is willing to
allow Davis to play. that they will take the
case into the courts and attempt to enjoin
Davis from playing with any other ball
club in the country except the South Sid
ers.
President Comiskey has made the asser-
ton several times since Davis Joined the
New Yorks that he would do everything
within his power to protect himself legally,
and it has been inferred from his state
ments that he will resort to the courts for
this protection.

RACING AT SHEEPSHEAD.
Unable to Reach Track on
Account of Heavy Rain.

Thanks to the tremendous downfall OF
rain yesterday morning. thousands of race
goers were prevented from taking part in
their favorite sport because of washouts
on the railroads which usually carry the
bulk of the public to the Coney Island
track.
At one time it appeared as If there would
be no racing, as jockeys failed at first to
appear; the indispensable officers, such as
starter. judges. stewards. ETC., were late in
reaching the track, and there was great
uncertainty, even as late as o'clock, at
many points, notably at East New York.
where a thousand people were vainly,
awaiting at that hour definite news from
the club officials as to whether or not the
program would be run of.
When 1t was finally made known at Long
Island City and East New York that the
races would be run, many turned back be-
cause of inability to reach the course be-
fore at least two-thirds of the program
would be decided. Meantime so eager were
the public to back much-fancied candidates
that the professional layers were loaded up
with offers to bet, some with and some
without conditions.
By good fortune there were stewards and

"CoPPERs" PLAY BALL.
All-Police Team Defeated the Ninth
Precinct at American League Park.

The Ninth Precinct base ball team and
the All-police team of the metropolitan po-
lice force played a game yesterday after
noon at American League Park, the latter
winning by score of 13 to H. Many spec
tators from the northeast section of the
city were present to root for their team.
while there was also a good representation
from the other sections Davis, who was in
the box for the Ninth Precinct team, weak
ened somewhat in the eighth inning, and
five men crossed the plate.
Mr.. ODay, who did the slab work for the
All-police, was very effective at critical
times. but in the latter part of the game was
SO wild that Capt. Parker replaced him with
r. Brown. 1t looked as if the All-police
were going to have everything their own
way; the Ninth team did not score in the
first or second inning, while the victors had
three runs to their credit, but the losers
rallied and scored three in the third and
tied the score. They again scored in the
fourth. getting two more. while the All
police failed to score. This slaughter Of

THE BLOOD.

The blood is life. We derive from
the blood life, power, beauty, and rea-
son, as the doctors have been saying
from time immemorial. A healthy
body, fresh appearance, and generally
all the abilities we possess depend or
that source of life. 1t is therefore the
duty of every sensible man to keep the
blood as pure and normal as possible
Nature, in its infinite wisdom. ha
given us a thermometer indicating the
state of the blood, which appeals to our
reason by giving notice of it's impurity
Small eruptions of the skin, to which
we scarcely pay any attention, head
ache, ringing noises in the ears, lassi-
tude, sleeplessness, are generally sign
that the blood is not in its normal
state, but is filed with noxious sub
stances. These symptoms deserve our
full attention. If more attention were
paid to those symptoms, and steps taken
to remove them, then many illnesses
from which We suffer would become un.
known, and the human body would be-
come stronger and healthier. Atten.
ton therefor should be paid to those
warning signs, and the blood can bt

WILL ARBITRATE At HAGUE.
THE DISPUTE TO BE SETTLED
THERE.
This Is the Decision of the Cabinet
and President RooseveIt-the Diff
ferent Powers Have Agreed to the
PIan-6ritish Government not much
Pleased-Newspepers Speak.

Washington.-Arbit of the
disputes between Venezuela and Great
Britain, Venezuela and Germany, Ven
ezuela and Italy, Venezuela and Spain
and Venezeula and other nations will
be entrusted to The Hague tribunal.
This decision was practically arrived
at at a meeting of President Rosse-
welt and cabinet
Meanwhile the blockade of Venezu-
ella will be continued by German and
British war vessels until some decis-
ion or agreement is reached by her
foes. 1t is hoped they will soon call
off the blockade.
London.-Except by the opponents
of the government, who view it as d
virtual defeat and as discrediting the
ministery, the latest phase of the Vene.
zuelan trouble has been welcomed very
lukewarmly. Arbitration by President
Roosevelt has been anticipated as so
desirable an issue from a difficult bus
mess that his refusal, which is re-
garded as final, has caused keen dis
appointment. 1t is foreseen that, even
if satisfactory conditions to the sub
mission of the disputes to The Hague
court can be arranged, this method will
entail endless and wearisome details,
with no assurance that at the end
President Castro still will be in power,
or Venezuela in the mood to abide by
the decision of The Hague. In short,
the element of guarantee which would
have accompanied President Roose-
velt's acceptance of the office of arbi-
traitor is now lacking.
At the same time it is readily ad-
mitted that from the American point
of view President Roosevelt has acted
wisely in declining to act.
The foregoing represents the gener-
al drift of newspaper comment this
morning. The only paper which real
ly welcomes the decision to refer the
Venezuelan matter to The Hague is
the radical Daily News, which sees a
chance of making arbitration once
more a reputable theory paying a
tribute to the GOODNESS of President
Roosevelt and the correct attitude of
the United States during this SORRY
| business"
The Daily News says: '"The Vene-
zuelan crisis has done much to en-
nance Mr.. Roosevelt's reputation, and
to bring home to Englishmen the es-
sential friendliness of the American
people,"
The Daily Mail, in violent attack
upon the government, says:
"Thus ends perhaps the most in
glorious episode in which Great Brit
ain has engaged in recent years"

Mr.. Atkinson says, after five years. ex.
perience with Peruna:
Twill ever continue to speak good
word for Peruna. In my rounds as a
travelling man arm a walking adyer-
tisement for Peruna and have induced
many people during the past year to
use Peruna with the most satisfactory
results. ! am still cured of catarrh.b
John o. Atkinson,
Box aga. independence, Mo,
When old age comes on, catarrhal
diseases come also. Systemic catarrh
is almost universal in old people.
This explains why Peruna has become
SO indispensable to old people. Peruna
is their safeguard. Peruna is the only
remedy yet devised that meets these
cases exactly.
Such cases cannot be treated locally:
nothing but an effective systemic reme-
dy could cure them. This is exactly
what Peruna is.
Ii you do not receive prompt and
satisfactory results from the use of Pc.

able advice gratis.

About Pearls

The value of pearls depend on theii
form, size, color, texture and orient.
AS regards form, they are spherical,
pear-shaped, ovate, conical ana irreg-
ular or baroque. The perfectly round
pearl is generally the most valuable,
other things being equal. Those over
200 grains in weight and of fine orient
are scarce, and are usually profitable
investments, the price gradually in.
creasing on account of the enhanced de-
mand and the exhaustion of the fisher

ployed to form the center of necklaces
