NEBRAsKA's BALL TEAM.
The Outlook for COrnhuskers for 1905
Is Not Very Rosy.

Lincoln, Neb., Jan. appropriations
for the spring campaign Of baseball and
outdoor track athletics at the Univer-
by the announcement by Physical Di-
rector Clapp that indoor practice will
begin by both squads in the gymnasium
during the coming week. For the past
several seasons the Cornhuskers have
taken a two weeks baseball trip. play
ing most of the important college teams
in the middle states, and a place on the
baseball team is viewed by the candi-
dates as a decided maj. as well as an
athletic honor.
uSkerS have been unusually success
full during the past four years, winning
more than t~hree-fourths OF their col
-legiate games each year. The outlook
for 1905, however, is not as roseate as
Captain Bender would like to ave it
OF the winning aggregaten Of 1904.
Pitcher Adams, First Baseman Town
send, Second Baseman Hammel, Third
Baseman Steen, Shortstop William and
Outfielder Miller will not be in the Inc
up. Practically every of the abb
sentees was a collegiate star, and In
filling their places Captain Bender faces
a formidable task.
Morshe, the crack pitcher Of last year,
will again be the mainstay in the box
and with Captain Bender will form the
battery upon which the bulk of the
work. will fall. Morse's twirling is on a
par with that of Bender'S ,backstoppings
and the two constitute the most prof.
presented. Fenlon and Cook, both out
fielders, are the only other veterans who
will be in the lineup. There is a host OF
men. however.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful 1t Is In
Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that char
coal is the safest and most efficient dis
infectant and purifier in nature. but
few realize its value when taken into
the human system for the same cleans
ing
Charcoal is a remedy that the more
you talk of it the better; it is not a
drug at all, but simply absorbs the
gases and impurities always present in
the stomach and intestines and carries
them out of the system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
drinkin or after eating
onions and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and i'm
proves the complexion. it whitens the
teeth and further acts as a natural
and eminently safe cathartfc.
It absorbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels; it
disinfects the mouth and throat from
the poison of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one
form or another, but probably the best
charcoal n h most for the money
IS in StuartS Charcoal Lozenges: they
are composed of the finest
Willow charcoal. and other harmless
antiseptics in tablet form or rather in.

lozenges, the charcoal being mixed with

PUT EVERY ONE "ON."
Marriage Notice Pasted on Back of
Pass secured Attentions.

There is one Santa Fe employe who
is employed on the Los Angeles divis-
ion who would like to get at the man
who issues transportation to employees.
This particular employee recently took
unto himself a wife n wished to take
a little honeymoon trip, making appli-
cation to headquarters for passes for
himself and wife.
The man with the book of passes was
next" having seen the notice of the
approaching marriage in the papers.
Just for a little fun he clipped h no
tice of the approaching wedding and
pasted it securely on the back of the
pass. so that it could not in any way
escape h eagle eye of the conductor.
When on that wedding trip it is safe
to say every man on the train knew
there was a wedding party aboard and
who they were, and did everything pos
sible to contribute to the pleasure of
the newly married couple while en-
route. What this newly welded young
man would like to do to that pass
man. would not look well in print.

DENY RAILROAD MERGER.
Chicago & Northwestern Will Not Be
Purchased by Union Pacific

Chicago & Northwestern is to be merged
into the Union Pacific, the latter giving
$500 in 4 per cent collateral trust bonds
for each share of Northwestern COM
mon stock, has been authoritatively de-
MED.
Control of Northwestern is to a large
extent concentrated in a comparatively
few hands, and the element of pride in
the property is so strong IN some OF the
larger holders that they could hardly be
induced to part with their stocks or
sink the identity of the road in any
other property.
A possible contingency OF the IutuIe'
Wall street heard today, is that ulti-
mately the Northwestern will secure all
the outstanding stock of Chicago, St.
Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha. and that
these properties MAY IN Tune pc mergeo.

]. Pierpont Morgan had purchased the
king of Belgium's interest in the Can

contemplated to combine the French,
Belgian and American interests, so as
eventually to cover the Franco-Bel-

kow to Picking, thereby making a
trunk line of about $500 miles from
Picking to Canton. Concerning these

There is no remedy in the world
that meets the conditions produced by
the grip better than Peruna.
Peruna strengthens as it ~renovatesi
soothes while it stimulates. heals as If
expurgateS.
Peruna is not a purgative, or ca
thartic or sedative, or stimulant, nor
a vegetable or mineral poison.
1t reaches the source of all diseases
of the mucous membranes by its ac-
ton on the vaso-motor system of
nerves.
After-ERects OF the Grip.
Every person who has had la grippe
during h last ear should AXE a
course of Peruna. No one need ex-
pect perfect recovery unless they do
so.
The grip has produced catarrhal in
hammation of the whole mucous
membrane, and good health is impos-
sibIe until these are restored to a
normal condition. This Peruna will
do.
A great many remedies have beer
suggested for this condition from time
that has n substantial value in
these cases.
1t has lever failed to give satisfac-
ton during forty years experience
and still occupies the unique position
of being the leading (if not the only
specific remedy for the after--effects
of la grippe.
No Time Like the Present.
If you are suffering from the after
effects of la grippe-if you have be-
come discouraged in your attempts to
cure yourself with other treatments,
take a bottle of Peruna now.
