American League club out of the con- solidation scheme.

American League club out of the con- solidation scheme.
 According 10 the proposed amalga- nation plan, the new National League will be made up of eight of the best cities in the country with President Johnson of the American League as the president of the new organization.
 One of the principal arguments against the amalgamation scheme is that the American League last year en- joyed the most prosperous period of its existence.
 Nearly all the members of the league att ended today's meeting. The board of directors first held a meeting in President Johnson's office and went through the formality of awarding the pennant to Philadelphia.
 Another matter that was definitely settled was that in the future the an- nual meetings of the league will be held on the first Wednesday after the second, Tuesday in December each year.
 c. W Somers of Cleveland was elect ed vice. president of the league and Chicago, Washington, New York and Cleveland were chosen to represent the league on the rules committee, which will meet a similar committee of the National League some time before the opening of the playing season next year and remedy any defects in the present rules

The stomach is your vital center.
 No man Is stronger than his stom- ach.
 The average man measures his phy- sical vitality by his heart, his kidneys, or his lungs. Yet it is the stomach that should be first considered when you cast up the account of health.
 Every organ of the body is sustained and nourished by food which is con verted into nutrition in the stomach and conveyed to every part of the sys- &tem in the form of blood. For this eaeen. when the stomach is strength

Declares His Innocence,

After his release from the penitentiary, Barker
seems to have lived longer than week
two in any one place. He said that the
morning Of Sept. 4, the day Of the murder, he
had started for Hecla with the intention Of
spending time there gambling, as he had
been there before for the same purpose. He adj
mitted having seen two of the witnesses on the
train, but declared that after the train left
Columbia he had gone to sleep and had slept
until the train leaving Hecla. He said that
there were three men in the car when he went
to sleep and that when he awoke his hat was
missing. He declared he had gone to the place
! here he expected to gamble as soon as he left
the train, but it was closed; went to the saloon;
found 1t also closed and then went to the hotel
where he went to bed.
He declared that one Of the three men who
he said wereNin the car with him when he went
| pearance, and easily might have been mistaken
| for him. On being recalled three Of the wit
