Schnapps Tobacco is Made ENTIRELY from Flue Cured
Tobacco Crown i'm the Piedmont Country.
The limitation Brands Have Schnapps
Quality Only On the Outside
OF the PLUG

Hundreds Of imitation brands are
on sale that look like Schnapps to-
bacco. The outside of the imitation
plugs of tobacco is fue cured the same
as Schnapps, but the inside is filled
with cheap, fimsy, heavily sweetened,
air cured tobacco. One chew of
Schnapps will satisfy tobacco hunger
longer than two chews of such to-
bacco. The color, size and shape
of the tags, plugs and packages of
certain imitation brands of tobacco
have been made so much like
Schnapps that they have often been
accepted by buyers under the belief
that they were getting Schnapps.
Sufficient proof has been secured
to establish the fact that certain
brands are infringements and in vio-
lation of the trade mark laws, yet the
trade will continue to be imposed
upon by these infringers until the suit
already entered and now pending to
protect Schnapps is decided. A
great many of these limitations are

claimed to be "just as good" as
Schnapps, but there is only one gen.
uine Schnapps. Be sure the letters
ON the tag, and stamped on the plug
under the tag spell S-C~H~N~A-P-P-S
and then you have 1.-THE most
wholesome tobacco produced, with
just enough sweetening to preserve
the mild, juicy, stimulating quality of
the leaf tobacco. Expert tests prove
that this tfue cured tobacco, grown
in the famous Piedmont region, re-
quires and takes less sweetening than
any other and has a wholesome,
stimulating, satisfying effect on
chewers.
If the tobacco you are chewing
don't satisfy you more than the mere
habit of expectorating, stop fooling
yourself and chew Schnapps tobacco.
Schnapps is like the tobacco chewers
formerly bought costing from 7sc.
to $1.oo per pound; Schnapps is
sold at soc. per pound, in sc. cuts,
strictly roc. and 15c. plugs.

WILL WALK 1000 MILES,.
0ld-Time Pedestrian to Make Difficult
Effort Near Cincinnati.

CINCINNATI, Aug. 15.-To establish r
new science of physical endurance and to
prove that it is possible for a man to walk
1000 miles in 1000 consecutive hours is the
gigantic undertaking of Dan O'Leary, the
greatest heel-and-toe pedestrian the world
ever knew. O'Leary is determined to have
a record of having walked 100000 miles be-
fore retiring from the profession.
He further desires to aid the medical
fraternity in ascertaining the actual physiS
cal endurance of the human and to estab-
fish a record for coming athletes and
pedestrians to equal. For that reason he
expects to begin at once the task of going
the thousand miles in the allotted time,
and has begun active preparations along
that line. In looking around for a suit
able track O'Leary has selected White
heads Tuxedo Garden. at the end of the
upper Licking River bridge, Newport, KY,
which Is admirably fixed for convenience.
The track will be tanbark, twelve laps
to the mile, and in the centre of the
grounds viii be a tent equipped with the
necessary articles and a resting couch,
where OLeary expects to put in every
spare ome after each mile within each
hour. He will have two attendants, one
for the daytime and the other at night
lime
Official timers and scorekeepers will also
be engaged n II all arrangements are
completed by this morning O'Leary says
he is ready to make the start at an early
date.

Empire City Races.

NEW YORK. Aug, 15.-The seventy
odd bookmakers doing business in the big
ring at the Empire City racetrack received
a drubbing on the first two races yester-
day afternoon that they will remember
for many days. On two coups, well
planned and carried out, the layers paid
out all of $4,000 to the insiders who had
given the tips in time to get their checks
down..
Captain Jimmy Williams's Hans was the
medium of the first wallop handed the
books. He was played from 8 to 2 down
to 2 to l. and when he won the layers had
to pay out $4,000 to 90 1are accounts.
Belle Stromes was the good thing In the
second event, and her victory Melted her
hackers fully $780, 900.
A greet part of the money won on Hans
originally belonged to Captain Williams
and his friends. for they lost a big plunge
on the Handse colt in his first start here
when he ran unplaced.
Cedarstrome, who raced all season on
Jockey Club tracks without winning one,
won its second race within three days here
Yesterday afternoon. taking the fourth
event easily. Wexford n Topsy Robin

STEPPING AT
LIVELY CLIP
Rochester, Which Opens
Here Tomorrow, Has Been
Greatly Strengthened.

When Burnham's men departed from
Newark Sunday on their last trip to Buff
falo they seemed to be In grave danger of
losing third place. But the Colts have
held up well, taking the first game of the
series and coming within an ace of again
trimming the Bisons yesterday. To help
the locals along, Jersey City lost three
straight games to Toronto. Baltimore has
been walloped at Rochester and Provi-
dence. which, with the Orioles and the
Skeeters, has been crowding Newark, has
been getting its bumps at the hands Of the
tail-end Montreal team.
The Colts will wind up their series at
Buffalo this afternoon. and tomorrow will
be home again for a series of four
games with Rochester, the games
having been transferred to this city
by mutual agreement. So far Roches-
ter has been easy picking for Newark, the
locals having won eleven out of fourteen
games, and the chances are that the Burn
hamites will pick up ground at Rochester's
expense, but the Broncos have been
greatly strengthened since they last
FLASHED with Newark. and at present are
stepping at a lively clip.
Where the Broncos have been bolstered
up most was at third base by the addition
of Sundheim, purchased from the New
York Nationals.
Ted Sullivan. the famous scout, picked
Sundheim up for McGraw, and tells this
story of getting the lad:
"McGraw wired me to get him ar infield-
er. and suggested that l look at a third
baseman playing at Houghton, Mich, in
the Cooper State League, by the name of
Sundheim. So I went over to Houghton,
being UP In that country at the time, but
was disappointed to learn that Sundhelm
was under suspension for getting into a
row on the ball field. l went out to see
the game Just the same, but did not let
any of the owners know of my presence.
There I saw a third baseman that took
my eye.
Il don't know who that boy is" I said to
myself. but he is good enough for me. 1t
can't be Sundheim. for he is suspended,
but the Substitute looks better to me than
the regular probably would. So ] made up
my mind to a X that chap. Turning tc
one of the spectators near me l asked the
Lame of the third baseman playing.
'Sundheim.' was the reply.
"'But l thought he was under suspen-
sion,' I said.
so he was until this noon, when the
suspension was lifted and he got back into
the game at once
after the game I talked with the player
and with the owners, and the result was
Sundheim went to New York. AS the
Giants were long on infielders McGraw sold
the player to Rochester for a fancy price. p"
