Newport News, Va., July a2, 1903.
 Last summer while recovering from ill., ness of fever, I had a severe attack of Inflamrlatory Rheumatietl in the knees, from which I was unable to leave my room for several months. I was treated by two doctors and also tried different kinds of 1inafncnts and medicines which seemed to relieve me from pain for awhile, but at the same time I was not any nearer getting well. One day while reading paper saw all advertisement of s. s. s. for Rheunatistn I decided to give it trial, which I did at once. After I had taken three bottles I felt a great deal better, and I still continued to take it regularly until was entirely cured. I now feel better than for years, and I cheerfully recommend S. s. S. to any one suffering from Rheumatism.

Outlook For Local Team
 Discussed.
Fast Inaelders are Signed and Former Members of Climbers are Look ing After Interest of
 Their old Club.
By W. w. Screws, Jr.

Clayton S. Perry, an infielder, was drafted yesterday morning by Presi- dent Amerine. and from all accounts he has picked up a valuable man, one that will be able to i'll every inch or Arthur Brouthers's shoes at third base.
 Perry last year was the star third baseman of the Iowa State League. He is 2s years old. weighs IFS so poundGs as height. Tn ninety-three games last year he had l45 ,putouts, 352 assists sfs aae ns had 17 sacrifice hits, IT stolen oaSss yss and a batting average of .271. HIS batting was exactly the same as Broutn,, CTS last wear and. only points oehlna Rohe of New Orleans, While he piayso twenty games less than Rohe still ne had nineteen more chances than n.,te the outs and eight more assists. With tne exception of Brothers he led every third baseman in fielding that was .I In 2 the Southern League last year. me MIne following comparisons between Ferry Id the Southern League third basemeh of last year will prove interesting

 McCrane Will Come.
 The outlook for the box staff looks as bright as te in and outtields: td For T tde the was with Lew Whistler's Iocal team. the pitching department will probably be filled in with a southpaw. Connie Mack of Philadelphia has made a prop osition to trade one of his crack left handlers for the balance of the draft money due on Oldring next June. The pitcher in question Is McCrane. one Of the famous left-handers in the busi- ness. He belongs to Philadelphia, but last year refused to go there. playing in the Pennsylvania outlaw league. This year as there Is no outlaw league. he will be forced to go to Philadelphia, but Mack has made very generous proposition. If he can't deliver Mo Crane to Montgomery. he will pay the balance due on the Oldring draft With slab department will be swift propo- sition. Then there Is Germaine. the Michigan pitcher recommended by Dur rett, and Frye the Frankfort tky.l and lost two out of twenty-two games pitched three of the games being no hit affairs, five of them one-hlt, while in twelve games he struck out lSs men. an average of something over twelve men q game. May, the. ex-Auburn pitcher, makes seven. and if George Stultz is tried out again, 1t will make @ eight pitchers to select for the 1906 box stan.
 When the wedding out begin, the chan will fly in clouds. for the local infringement has determined to keep, in the $2,700 limit. and to go through the season with thirteen men. four in- fielders, three out-tielders, four pitch CTS, two catchers and utility man. At present there are seventeen contracts for next season locked in President will have to get the axe. one of the four outfielders receiving the same instru- ment of torture, as will four of the eight pitchers. Durrett will have un- til the lst of May to decide on point to begin his wedding. and the merits and demerits of the bunch will have been made apparent by that time.
 Rube Oldring will never be seen on a Montgomery or any other minor league team again. Connie Mack writes that he thinks that he has made great find in the hard-hitting Swede. and that if he has no place oten Tor nim next season, he will keep him on the bench season. Brouthers will probably play with the Athletics next season; Any way. he belongs to Mack, and there he will stay He and Oldring VII both come to Montgomery about the m'odIe m the American League put their autographs on the guest book of the Glenmore Ho- fel MCCOY and Starkell will be with Washington next season.

The most reassuring feature about the shaping up of next years team IS thas ars ef of of as t seas0s taking an active part in ferreting out the most promising youngsters that they can find.
