PURSE IS POSTED
 FOR DUckPIN MATCH.
Hill and Murphy Against New Haven Pair-First Games "Wednesday in New Haven.

On Saturday Manager John J. C. Stone of the Rose bowling alleys post ed with the Sporting Editor of The Bulletin the sum of $25 as the Norwich half of a purse of $50 which will be robbed for in a series of home and home games whhich Allie Murphy and Roy Hill are to roll against a two-man team from New Haven. The New Ha- ven men. who are to be Janswick and West. are to post their $25 with the New Haven Journal and Courier.
 The first five games of the series will be rolled Wednesday evening in New Haven on the Tuxedo alleys, and the final five games in Norwich at the Rose alleys on the following Tuesday. Total pins will count, so that the re- suit will be in doubt till the last, al- though one of the teams might estab- fish a lead on games won, but be beat en out by some particularly high roll ing done by their opponents in certain strings.
 The abilities of the local men are well known but they will be up against a strong pair in the two New Haven men. Janswick is one of the finest big pin rollers in the state, having been a member of the New Haven team in the state tournament last season, but he is doing fully half his rolling now with the ducks and splitting the wood at a great rate with this size. West is also high man with the ducks, so that the series is bound to call out some classy work.
 Manager Stone also has in prospect a two-man team series with some Hartford men.

JOHNSON STRONG

Prevent 1t If PossihIe-Cantilion
 Wants Vindieation.

Chicago, Dec. 12.-B. B. Johnson, president of the American baseball league; Charles A. Comiskey, president of the Chicago American club, and Joseph Cantillon, formerly manager of the Washington Americans, left today for New York, to attend the National baseball meetings.
 Before his departure Johnson said he was unalterably opposed to the cleo tion of John M. Ward as president of the National league and that he would do everything he could to present it.
 Cantillon arrived today from Hick- man, Ky, and immediately left for New York. He said he would strive for Vindication at the American league meeting. Cantillon declared that he was not a traitor to the league and that he would make a fight for his rights. He further stated that he would insist on an investigation of the charges of signal tipping made against the New York American team by the Washington team last summer. He announced that he would manage the Minneapolis American association club, of which he was president, next sea- son.

RoBINsoN's VOTE MAY DECIDE.
St. Louis Owner Holds Heyder's Fate
 -Dreyfus Says War is Sure.

New York, Dec. 12.-A regular cycle of baseball meetings here, all of great importance, will begin tomorrow. The National commission will meet first tomorrow morning to decide on the case of Pitcher Torrey, now on the Cincinnati reserve list, but claimed by the Springfield club of the Three I league.
 On Tuesday the National league will hold its annual meeting, and on We'd nesday the American league will open its sessions.
 The leaders of the Heydler and Ward factions are both anxious to see Stan ley Robinson of St. Louis. for it is thought his vote will decide whether MT. Heydler, president of the National league, shall retain office or be dis placed in favor of some compromise candidate.
 The election of John M. Ward as president of the National league is con- sidered improbable by Barney Dreyfus, owner of the Pittsburg club. Dreyfus says there will be war, no matter on whom the two factions decide.

 After this exhibition it is safe to say that no Paris club viii offer them a return engagement. The fight was for a purse of $500. Jeanette was far the cleverer of the two, but his blows and the few that McVey landed in return were so feeble that the crowd repeatedly cried: Don't hurt each otheri"

RUTT AND CLARK
 ARE BIKE RACE WINNERS
Rutt Beats His Partner in Final Sprint-7 Miles Behind the Record.


 Walter Rutt of Germany and Jackie Clark of Australia won the annual six day bicycle race at Madison Square garden at New York, Saturday night, from an exhausted and hopeless field. Their distance of 2,660.1 miles for 142 hours which is IT miles behind the record of 2,737.1 miles made last year by Mcfarland and Morgan, gives no adequate idea of a race which for broken records, broken precedents and broken teams, has been the most ex- citing ever seen at the Garden.
 In the competitive mile exhibition between the two winners which fol- lowed the race proper, Rutt defeated his partner, Clark, by six inches, al- though Clark is rated the speediest short distance man in the world, bar ring only Frank Kramer. the cham pion. The men divided first money $1,500lbetween them
 Of the F teams that started only finished. Mcfarland, the veteran, broke a finger and suffered such pain that he had to desert his partner, Clark. Opportunely for the latter, the default of Johann Stol of Holland left Walter Rutt similarly without a mate and one from each of the two broken teams combined to form the winning pair

 losis Cure.


 Visitors to the exhibition recently held in Philadelphia to acauaint the public with the dangers of Tuberculo- sis and to demonstrate the methods of prevention and the cure of Consump- ton, were surprised when informed at the Bureau of Information that. no statement of cures was at hand. Tn the past few years immense sums have been spent and many persons treated by the eggs. milk and fresh air advo- cates, yet cur1ously, cured cases are rarely found.
 That Eckman's Alterative positively cures Tuberculosis Consumption and stands the test of time is proven by the following letters: e

 Gentlemen: My son commenced talk ing your medicine February 2d. 1898. Previous to that time my family physi- elan had given him up to die with Con- sumption. Not being satisfied, l had him taken to prominent hospital in this city, where they informed me that both upper lobes of his lungs were dis eased. Upon examination of his sputum they found 1t full of Bacilii, and said there was no hope for his recovery He was compelled to give up his position. He commenced to improve almost im- mediately after taking your remedy. and has now returned to his office work.

He will only wrestle Murphy in handicap match if Dan can make under 155 pounds. As there is no possibility of Dams doing that, the chance for these two men meeting seems all off.
