NEW sEIsMoGRAPH
 HARNESSES QUAKES

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Cal, March l2.-Professor w. F. Durand head of the department of engineering at Stanford university, has invented a device which will doubly increase the ability of man to know and harness the earthquake.

Stiff neck is caused by rheumatism of the muscles of the neck It is usually confined to one side, or the back of the neck and one side. While it is often quite painful, quick relief may be had by applying Chamberlain's Lini- ment. Not one case of rheumatism in ten requires internal treatment.

cation declared its willingness to stand
sponsor for the regatta through j. A.

tempestuous that have ever been held
by the association, and several of thu
clubs broke long standing affiliations
in the fight to decide the place of the
regatta. Chief among these were tho
Atalanta. Palisade and New Rochelle
clubs. which voted against the other
clubs of the New York district in an
effort to have the regatta held at Bal
timore. The Fairmount Rowing Club
opposed the scheme to have the races
against the other Philadelphia clubs,
which We're unanimously in favor of II.

PLAY ON THE HILL TOMORROW.
Georgetown to Put in Changed Line
Up Apainst Catholic University

With many of the positions filled by
men used to other jobs and having either
Wymard or O'Connor in the box, the Blue
and Gray knights of the horsehide will
meet the Catholic University team on
Georgetown Field tomorrow afternoon
AS there has been lapse of week since
the last battle on home grounds for the
Hilltoppers, a large turnout is expected to
be on hand to watch the doings That
some keen enjoyment will be on tap may
readily be surmised, as a shift liz posi-
tions always tends to show that not every
one in ball suit is able to fill in any
where.
For Georgetown, Charlie Duffy will
probably play at shortstop, leaving the
catcher's work for Feenan, the big lad
from Massachusetts, who is counted upon
to succeed Duff" when the latter is
graduated. Whether "Cy" Mcdonald will
be changed from his old stand on the
initial sack has not been decided upon as
yet II he is he will probably give way
to ex-Capt. Simon, who used 10 play first
in years gone by.
Catholic University " -. O.. course, pre-
sent its strongest lineup. AS the Brook
land team has improved greatly since
their first game with Georgetown and as
they are also anxious to make a good
showing against a school that will natur-
ally become a great rival in the future
there is every reliability that hard
scrap will ensue.
