NEW YORK, Oct. "a mascu-
line form divine has been decreed!
Mrs. Linda Ross-Wade, who used
to be in the dressmaking business,
after looking around at New York
men, has decided that they run
too much to paunch. There are
two cures for this lamentable con-
dition. One is to curb the appetite,
and the other is to curb the waist.
Mrs. RossWade declares that men
have no will power, so she has to
provide corsets-corsets for men.
Mrs. Ross-Wade, who used to be
vice president of the National
Dressmafers' association, has con-
cluded that about all had been done
toward wasping women that was
possible, while men were becoming
less shapely each succeeding year.
Then, too, Mrs. Ross-Wade says,
the future generations must be con.
sidered. If all men would take to
the corset right now and stick to it
as tight as women do, their great
grandsons would be born with slen.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 9.-The sec

opened here today. The attendance
is much larger than at the first
congress and nearly all Central and
South American republics are repre-
scented, as well as every state in the
Union and many European coun-
tries. Among the foreign delegates
are many distinguished scientists
and specialists on infectulous dis
eases. The southern states are well
represented, although many promi-
nent physicians are prevented by
the yellow fever epidemic from at
tending the conference. The pro-
gram is highly interesting and gives
an important place to the discus
sion of means to prevent the

South and Central American repub-
lie will submit report on the sani-
tary conditions in it's territory and
special stress will be laid upon the
modern methods of quarantine and
the eradication of the diseases. The
present yellow fever epidemic in
the south will be carefully consider
ed, with view of finding some way
to eliminate the danger from mos
quitoes, which are believed to be
the indirect cause of the spread of
the epidemic.

He began his baseball career when !S years of age playing first with a team in Canada. From there he went to Lynn. Mass. playing with the Live Oaks of that place.

 Some of. the old time ball players with whom Leary has played with are the following: Jimmy Woodhead and Jim 0'Rourke of Bridgeport, Eddie Coggeswell of Pittsburg, Jack Farrell of Hartford. Mike Snigg aud Honest John Kelley of New Haven.
 His last ball playing was in this city in 1887 when he played on a team managed by Dr J. H. Kelley.

FRANCHISE OURS
Deal Was Closed With Meriden Owners To-Day-0ld Ball Play
 CT Dead in New Haven.

Waterbury has the Meriden fran chise. The final deal was consummat- cd today and now Messrs Durant and Strobel will have their hands full hustling on the grounds and looking up players. A meeting of the league will probably be called early next week to ratify the purchase of the Meriden franchise and players. All the players on the Meriden reserve list will be held without any exception and there is no doubt but that some of them will be held permanently. There are some on the list, however. who will not be fast enough for Wa terbury and they will be turned adrift In time to look up other positions III other teams or leagues. When Mana ger Durant gets ready to announce his players before the winter is over the lovers of baseball in this city will be well pleased at the result. It will be up to the public then to come out and koom the game that was once so pop ular.

 Both men were rougller than the strictest rules of wrestling admit as permissible, but it was not within the power of Referee George v Tuohey to check either man. Smith had about % pounds advantage over Barnes in weight. and he made use of every ounce of it. Tn the work close to the mat. where the test was greatest Barnes did his best work. After dal- lying along with the giant during the first bout. the local favorite turned. and by means of skill and gameness wore the husky New Yorker down.
 Smith appeared inclined to clumsi- ness in the first bout. but he soon made that forgotten hy hard. fast work at close range. His smile was perpetual and the difference In weights gained nothing for the local man. the good nature of the big yisi- for resulting in making mary friends for him. But Barnes skill was su- perior

 There is absolutely no chance for Comiskey and myself to come together definitely" said Johnson recently in answering the charge of the White Stocking clubs owner.
 q have had no personal quarrel with Comiskey. have not seen him since last fall. He is wholly in the wrong. and am wholly in the right, as I be- heye any man will say who fully un- derstands the facts in the case. I want to say right here that the American league enjoyed one of the most pros porous seasons which ever came to a big organization like ours. It Is true we lost the worlds series, but we take that matter phiIosophically. Any ball man knows how ridiculous are the stories that we are seeking to give up our position and combine with any National league.
 T have never lost case taken up to the National commission in which we were in the right, except possibly the Ridgeway case. Did I not settle the George Davis case? Did I not settle the Jones case for Comiskey? Did I not get him big sum of money. and did I not personally go to New York and get Jones' contract guaranteeing him his salary and no loss for coming with us?
 'sThe disagreement with Comiskey started with the Kelly case when Um- pire Kelly called Detroit game with White Stockings on account of rain and then made the teams play again. when Chicago won sut It was then that Comiskey got Kelly back of the grand stand and buIlyragged him.

PRESIDENTS IDEAS
Would Not Abolish Football But Would Make it Kicking Game
 MeNaIIy Dying.

An open game, devoid of mass plays and largely devoted to kicking. That IS about what President Roosevelt has suggested as most necessary amend nent Ill the existing rules of the American game of football More than that, promises have been made that new rules will be framed for next season.
 William T. Reid, Harvard coach. and Herbert White, of the same insti- tuition, after q long conference with the president Tuesday, pledged .hem- sleyes to use their influence to carry out the presidents wishes in the fram- ing of the rules for next season. After the conference the two football men were the presidents guests at lunch con.
 While the football talk was on in the white house committee from congress had to wait, but that has nothing to do with the story. There must be some change in the footns Il rules to appease the wrath of many college officials. and the president is determined to have the changes so made that our greatest college game will be saved
 Mir Roosevelt has not foecotten the army and navy game and i'll his talk with the Harvard men he said such opportunities for brutality must be eliminated.
 It is the surest thing in the world that the game. as it has delighted rhe hearts of the college athletes. will in their opinion suffer by me promised chanPe of the rules, and it is signifi- cant that association football. as play cd in EngIand, is being adopted at Princeton and the University of Chi eago.
