TALES OF TWO PITCHERS.
Bug Holiday E1xtols Bob Ewing and
Talks of Tony MulIane.

Mr. Ned Hanlon knew his business
when he made a trip to Redland and
tried to persuade Gearry Hermann to
turn Bob Ewing over to Brooklyn with
his blessing. So did Manager McGraw,
who accepted Claude Elliott when he
couldn't get Ewing. And Hugh Duffy
also had an eye to the main chance.
Fortunately all these efforts to secure
the Wapakonetan failed, for he finished
like Mathewson or a McGinnity.

and he ought to do well next season.
The trouble with the clubs today is that
they carry too many pitchers and don't
give their good ones enough work

lane was. He thought nothing of pitch
ing successive games. L think Kid Bald

plying Tony would shoot them across
in vain efforts to knock the Kid out.
One OF the greatest games Mullane ever
pitched was against Baltimore, and
Baldwin prodded him into that fight.
You've got no speed today Tony said
the Kid. Must be going back. I'll

He tossed away his mitt, and Mullane
shot them over with all his power. Bald

JACK TAYLOR INDIGNANT.
SAYS Hart Gave Out Wrong Idea Of
Pitchers Conversation.

St Louis, Mo-, Oct. 14.-Jack Taylor is
very indignant over an alleged interview
which he claims appeared in seyeral OF
the Chicago papers last week The local.
pitcher alleges that Hart gave out an IN
teryieW in which he said that Taylor
threw a game to the Chicago Americans
for $500.
Comiskey, Taylor says, replied to Harris
charges denying that he had ever made
any proposition to Taylor. The local
pitcher says that he intends to see an at
torney about the matter and Will sue the
Chicago magnate for damages.
Perhaps" says Taylor, few or the
local fans know how came to be traded
to St Louis. At the end of the post-sea-
son series Hart called me into his off1ce
and charged me with being crooked, al
leging that some one had telephoned MIN
that I said if the Chicago Nationals ana
Chicago Americans played the entire MI
teen games there would be more money
in it
Hart construed my meaning to be that
/ meant there would be more money in ~
for the players. What 1 meant was that
there would be more money in the series
for the owners if the entire fifteen games
were played. When Hart charged me
with being crooked told him I would
never play another game with his team.
Taylor alleges that when Hart made his
accusations public he did him a great in
justice. and the pitcher says he intends to
tional League owner. Taylor stated that
he would summon Comiskey witness.
''Old Reliable AYERS that Hart always
had it in for him and that he believed
every cooked-up story that any enemy of
his would telephone to the magnate.

Jimmy Britt Tries to Get Back al
Young Corbett.

Young Corbett.
San Francisco, Cal, Oct. IA
Whether Britt and Cans will fight
this month is a question perpleXing
the sporting world. There are many
obstacles in the way and they may
prevent the match, but Manager Coff-
roth has guaranteed the boxers that
he will pull the bout off in this city
this month. He has not yet received
a permit but he is sanguine enough
of getting it to post $1,000 forfeit. In
addition to this Coffroth shows his
confidence by hiring Mechanics Pavil-
ion for October 81.
Papa" Britt, who is in the east,
has been heard to say that if his son
ever agreed to fight a colored man,
he would personally see that the prize
fight was stopped.
Jimmy Britt is at his summer home
in San Mateo. He will leave that
place in a few days and take up his
quarters at the Sealrock house. Cans
has not made the lightweight limit in
several years. Whether he can make
weight and retain his strength is cauS-
ing much comment.
Two well-known sporting men wag-
cred few hundred dollars upon the
contest. They bet at even money,
which indicates that betting will be
nearly even.
Young Corbett will be heard from
He accuses Britt of being afraid to
meet him. Britt contends that he is
only evening up an old score on the
man from Denver.

"Why do feel used up and all down most
of the timer"
How many ask themselves this question daily?
The answer is simple 1t is lack of nerve force.
Science with its unerring methods of research
has proved that the various organs and tissues of
the body continue in health and perform their
work properly as long their nerve supply
tains its vigor and strength. But If the nerves
degenerate or lose power from poor nourishment
or any other cause, the entire physiological mech
anism of the body is thrown out of gear and we
have a result some pronounced rundown"
condition or disease.
The heart, the stomach, the liver, all have their
great nerve centres which supply them with the
power to work properly. When these nerve CEN
tres are weakened these important organs cannot
act properly.
The experience Of Charles E. Stacy Is
case in point.

Prof Edward E. Phelps, the famous dscoverer

health of the human body depends entirely upon
the health of the nerves.
Paines Celery Compound furnishes food for

latng them, restores them to their original
strength and vigor and at once all the organs of
the body take up their work and health is re-
stored.
Paines Celery Compound sends new life throb-

feeling of perfect health.
For the past II years this great vitalizer
and tonic has been the most universally used pre-

It cures disease by removing the cause. When
