SIOUX CITY, May Flowing to
the non-arrival of the representatives
of Topeka, Des Moines and ST. Joseph
clubs, the meeting of Western league
magnates here tonight was no more
than dinner party. ORourke, Isbell
and President O'Neill drafted a sched-
ule to meet the changed circuit with
Pueblo in place of Wichita, but Des-
pain, McGill and Fairweather refused
TO consider it. An attempt will be
made Sunday to draft satisfactory
schedule which will have to be accept
ed before the directors can vote on
the transfer of the Wichita franchise.

End Bowel Misery
With a 'Cascaret'
Never Any Headache, BiIliousness, In
digestion, or constipation--No
more Miserable Days
After This.

This is the day of the gentle in med,
icine The cathartic pill is old-fash-
toned Salts and castor oil belong to
grandmothers time. The modern doc.
tor deals mildly. Cascarets are eff
fective, yet gentle. They don't irritate
or grippe They don't, like cathartics,
waste the digestive fluids.
Cascarets do only what some foods
will do, what some fruits will do,
what exercise does for the bowels
Their action is natural, not artificial
If you live outdoors, exercise a great
deal, and avoid rich foods, you don't
need them. Otherwise you do.
The most helpful laxative ever de.
vised is Cascarets. They are candy
tablets, pleasant to take. Then, they
are convenient. The ren-cent box
fits the vest pocket or the lady's purse
That Is a vital point The time to
take laxative is the minute you sus-
pect that you need it. Don't wait till
you get home; don't wait tin night.
One Cascaret, taken an.> ,.me, makes
you feel great and they cost only 10c
per box.

Messrs. Allison and Wolfe will give
a dancing party each Friday night at
the Bluff during the summer and if
the crowds continue as they have, the
season will have been the most sue

the popular summer resort for hun
dreds of Iowa, Illinois and even east

BRING BACK
TALE OF WO.
Purple and White Aggregation De
feated Both at LAGRANGE and ouin-
cy in Ball Games.


1t was a sorry tale that the high
school baseball warriors brought
home with them Saturday night.
With almost tears in their eyes they
told of the awful work of the umpire
at LAGRANGE, 10 to ,, and the loss CT
game at Quincy Saturday by the
close score Of S to 4.
They unanimously declare that the
LAGRANGE umpire was rotten and say
they made burlesque of the affair
after the first few innings,
At Quincy the game was a good
one. Keokuk forged to the front in
the seventh by piling up four runs,
but the next inning brought loose
playing and victory was turned into
defeat.
The players making the trip were
Harrington, Devero, Tebeau, McMau-
us, r. McGrath, D. McGrath, Davis,
Walker, Robertson and Pechstein.
In the Quincy game Davis was hit
in the head by pitched ball and
laid out or few minutes. 1t was
thought at first that he was seriously
injured, but he managed 20 come
around all right in few minutes.

Course In Good Shape.
The MARKETS

[Gate City Leased Wire Service.
CHICAGO, May 27.-The damaging
effect of the weather this week is not
ended. Prices were forced even high
err than yesterday in wheat but corn
suffered a quarter of cent drop and
oats were unchanged. There was lit
tie change in provisions.
Enough rain had not allen during
the night outside the spring wheat
belt for well wishers for winter
wheat crop to hang a hope upon. In
the spring wheat region the rainfall
was plentiful and Liverpool reported
futures as unchanged to slightly high
er. On a slight decline early in the
session there was active covering of
shorts. That told on the market later
when doubts began to be expressed
on rains between now and Monday in
the winter wheat country.
The corn market was affected at
the start as was wheat, the weakness
being the result of indications for
some relief from the recent scorching
temperature This weakness continued
4 during the entire session. The only
check to the selling was near the end,
when the wheat market was showing
recuperative tendency. The receipts
next week are expected to be large
4 because of heavy acceptances of bids
of fifty cents sent from here yester
day
Promise of rain and cooler weather
was effective in modifying the bullish-
ness of oat traders. The market start
ed weak with plenty of sellers. The
influence of the rain, however, was
felt less in this market than in corn.
Higher prices for hogs as reported
from the stock yards gave the market
for the products firm start at a
shade better than the closing prices of
the night before. Demand was equal
to the supply, however, so that offer
ings had to be reduced to meet the
views of the buyers. Shorts had COW
cred freely the last few days and some
of those who had done so were among
the sellers today.

4ooIa Main Street.

May 16, based on Umpire Finneran's
refusal to call ball thrown by
Pitcher Raymond, while Evans had
stepped from the batsmans box to
protest decision, either a bali or a
strike. Lynch decided that Evans
had no right to step from the box and
that Finneran erred in not calling the
pitch either a bah or strike. AS the
refusal to do SO had no effect on
the result, however, the protest was
refused.
