that he is backed by local capitalists
by coming out in favor of Heydler
Among the new officials of the Phila-
delphia club is Judge Frank Elliott
who was or is the legal adviser of the
Wagner brothers. George and j. Earl,
formerly owners of the Philadelphia
Payers league club, and the Washing
ton club. 1t was said several weeks
ago that the Wagners were after the
Philadelphia Nationals, So that Elliott's
presence in the deal is causing much
gossip.
Murphy's opposition to Heydler is
due to several reasons. During the
final series in Pittsburg several of the
clubs INDUCED in fragrant rowdyism,
and Heydler, who was present, handed
out discipline with neither fear nor
favor Murphy then declared that n.
was after Heydlers scalp, and his an
tagonism increased when Heydler as a
member of the commission, voted to
fine Murphy $500 for tampering with
one of the Toronto clubs players. John
son declared several weeks ago that
Murphy should be driven out of or
ganiZed baseball, and it is said that
he was backed up in this opinion by
Hermann and Dreyfuss.

the cold
While it is a trifle early to so into
the possibilities of such an upheaval,
it was freely predicted today that if
Murphy is permitted to boss the az
fairs of the National league, and in
cidentally bring about the downfal of
Heydler, the old organization may be
wrecked.
Hermann and Dreyfuss control the
Boston clubs vote, and when noses are
counted Robson of the St, Louis may
decide to vote with them because of
rumored business relations between the
latter and Hermann. But even in
that event there will be a deadlock
unless John T. Brush of the New York
club or c. H. Ebbets of the Brooklyn
club decides at the last moment to turn
away from the Murphy clique.
Brush Not in Syndicate
Brush declared today that he was in
no way connected with the purchase
Of the Philadelphia club by the syn
dictate of which Horace Fogel is an
nounced as the head. He went further
and stated positively that he did not
know any thing about the deal until
he read of it in the papers, that he
was not consulted by any one regard
ing the purchase and that no money
of his was used to pay for the stock
or any part of it. He could not ex-
plain where such rumor originated
nor understand why he had been nam
ed as a member of the syndicate.
Il have been out of touch with the
baseball situation to a great extent
have been kept from me, doubtless
owing to my illness, that L should
have been told about
"Are you pledged. to vote against
John A. Heydler for president of the
National league?" was asked.
Il have given no pledges, but I am
not in any combination to defeat Mr.
Heydler. 1t may not be generally
known that Murphy and 1 were the
only ones to insist on Heydler's cleo
ton last spring. The balance of the
league voted to retain Pulliam in Of
flee, but to give him leave of absence"
Have you spoken to John M. Ward
concerning the possibility of offering
him the presidency"
| Mr.. Brush hesitated moment before
| replying, and then said:
II prefer not to discuss the question:
Ward Makes Statement.
Johnson's quoted objection to Ward
| is said to have been due to the case of
Player George Davis, who signed con-
tracts with the Chicago Americans and
the New York Nationals and was after
ward enjoined from playing with the
| Giants by the federal courts. 1t is
! said that Johnson blamed Ward, as
Davis legal adviser, for the tangle,
and that he notified Ward several
! years ago that he would always oppose
him. When asked about Johnson's
statement that he would not sit as a
member of the national commission if
Ward was elected president of the Ma
tional league, Ward replied:
st is hard to believe that Johnson
has been quoted correctly. In fact, !
do not believe he ever said such a
/ thing. AS far as Davis case is con-
ply acted as that players paid attor-
ney.

"Dimick of Notre Dame is the other
tackle. Like Walker, he is big and
fast and a powerful defensive player.
On the defense he plays wide and pro-
tects the inside hole in great style. On
end runs he has frequently smashed
the interference for the end and the
runner has been nailed for losses. He
can run from his position as well as
Walker of Minnesota, and has been
the recipient of many forward passes
this fall.fBoth he and Walker get down
the field under kicks fast and are sure
tacklers when they get near enough to
the runner. Both are fierce, aggressive
chargers and possess knowledge OF
football which most of the tacklers in
the country lack.

Persons have been known to
gain a pound a dayby takingan
ounce of Scott Emulsion. It
is strange, but it often happens.
Somehow the ounce produces
the pound; it seems to start
the digestive machinery going
properly, so that the patient is
able to digest and absorb his
ordinary food which he could
not do before, and that is the
way the gain is made.
A certain amount of flesh is
necessary for health; if you

Our Sphere of Service.

Our Lord did not give the wretchel
man whom He had found lurking
among the tombs and cured the priv
ilege of accompanying Him. He did
not send him as a missionary to some
distant city. He told him to go home
to the friends who had seen him in
his degradation, to those who knew
his history, and tell them what great
things had been done for him. Those
who receive Gods blessings should
not forget their obligations to those
nearest them. Our first duty lies
within the little sphere in which we
move in our common daily living. To
fill that we'll is our greatest privilege,
and in it is EMBODIED our greatest
blessing If we will but claim it.

She packed her travelling bag, in
preparation for the morning, went to
bed and slept soundly.
At daybreak she arose, flung back
her curtain and saw the sun rise, full
orbed and glorious, out of sea of
rosy gold and changeful ops. No
cloud flecked the sky. On the far
horizon fleet of sails hung like
white moths. The ocean was calm
and beautiful. Jacqueline deter
mined to go down stairs and beg for
some kind of craft to take her at
once to Watchhaven. She ran to the
door and turned the knob--it did not
open. She tugged at it, but in vain.
Jacqueline was locked fast in her own
room!
