San Francisco, Cal. Sept. 12.-TeX
Richard says he would not care for i

the betting would favor Cans to such

prefer to wait until late in February

Nelson and Cans come together for
another fight.

THE POWER OF STEAM.
Many May See, But II Takes Genius
to Realize.

When James Watt saw the steam
causing the kettle lid to jump up and
down, he said There must be power
in that steam that can lift such a
weight"
There was.
Millions prior 10 him had seen the
same phenomenon and regarded it as
an unexplained mystery.
Recent scientific research has put its
finger on the cause" of dandruff, fall
ing hair and consequent badness, and
has unearthed a tiny germ which eats
the life from the roots of human hair.
Newbro's Herpicide destroys this
germ and consequently restores the
hair to its natural state.

Springfield, ILL.,, Sept. 12.-The
Cubs encountered defeat at the hands
of the Springfield team yesterday af-
ternoon. much to the surprise and en-
joyment Of 5000 people. The score
was 2 TO 1, and the game was close
argument all the way through, with
the glory all coming to Springfield
players.
Fromme, Manager Donnelly's twirl-
er, who never had an opportunity to
win any fame for himself, was the
hero of the day and undoubtedly will
now be drafted by some big league
club, for he held Chances men to
three hits and one run and struck out
six of the big leaguers, including
Chance himself.
The support of the Senators was ex-
cellent also, and the way the local
Three-Eye league men landed on the
ball kept the big crowd in continu-
Gus state of joy. They made nine
large hits during the afternoon, two of
that number being three baggers and
two being good for two bases.
Overall was on the slab for the
Cubs for the first five innings. and il
was off him most of the hits were
made and both the runs. Lundgren
then went to his relief and managed
to hold the Senators securely
The National league champions
tried to pull out of the difficulty in the
last round, but it was too late
Over-Confdent mt Start.
The big fellows started out in rather
a careless manner and played with an
air of supreme confidence, and Spring
field made two runs in the opening in
ming. Then the Cubs frightened and
tried to overcome the lead, but
Fromme pitched air tight ball and not
a hit was registered until the sixth,
when Overall opened with a scratch
hit and was scored by a sacrifice and
a long swat by Gessler
Chance had Gessler playing left field
and Holman at short, in place of
Sheckard and Tinker, but the playing
of these two men did not weaken the
team. for Holman speared several diff
ficult grounders and Gessler got under
everything that came his way
In the first inning in Springfield's
nail, dItSI Olc man was Out, RuDy
singled. Novacek followed with a
double and Cameron sent both men
over the plate with a long hit to cen
ter field on which he was thrown out
at second.
That was all the scoring by Spring
field, but it was enough. Twice after
that it looked as if more runs would
be made, but Overall managed to stop
them. In the fourth with one out,
Burg tripled and was doubled up with
Martin. In the fifth Fromme likewise
tripled after one was out, but he was
held at third Lundgren then went in
to the box.

The date for opening bids for con-

when the Sioux Falls people appeared

to dissolve the commission on the
grounds of unconstitutionality. The
application was made by u. 8. G..

not be granted, setting April 18 for

The commission, after considering
the bids and taking into consideration

them out of existence, decided that it
was not advisable for them to attempt
