baseball present. Kidlets Elberfeld
started a double play in the first that
killed off a prospective run. He seized
Olson's mighty wallop. shot 1t to Nc
Bride at second, catching the feet An

in that play.
In the eighth our leedle Herman
Schaefer. who has forgotten more base
ball than those fans are ever going to
know. grabbed Graneys bounder, ran
and touched the bag, and then. and not

Up to commission.

II conditions in different amateur
baseball leagues here, relative to eligi-
bility Of players, are as bad as they are
being printed there Is but one thing for
the District commission to do, and that
Is to get kIsy without further delay.
In order that a law be respected it
must be enforced. and the sooner a
punishment is meted out TO offenders the
easier it is to accomplish the result for
which the code was enacted. Let one
violate a regulation and it is taken as
license for others to do likewise
The commission started its work dur
ing the winter in a business-like way
and elected officers thoroughly in touch
with and sincerely interested in the
welfare of amateur baseball here.
The leaders in the organization are
for clean sport, and when the coming
meeting assemblies il is up to every
man in the board to give the commits
sion absolute support in its stand for
the rules.
This is not to be taken as indicating
that there is no question but that those
who are under charges are guilty, but
simply in the hope that should there
be disregard for the laws. that the
situation not be allowed to progress TO
the stage where those who are sup
posed to govern find themselves help
less.

LEEDLE ON
THE JOB, ALL RIGHT
Stngs the Pill and Does Circus Stunts in the Field,
Which Things Are Largely Responsible for
Trimming of the Naplanders.
By SENATOR"

Who comes to the pan when runs are
needed? Our leedle Herman Schaefer.
Who then promptly bangs out the
bingles that bring them in? Our leedle
Herman Schaefer.
Who steps in with circus stunts afield
Choking off ambitions of visiting de-
mons? Our leedle Herman Schaefer.
Whose bald crown covers brains and
brains and more brains? Our leedle
Herman Schaefer
And that's the way it went yesterday.
when the Nationals boWled over those
Naplanders by the comfortable score Of
to ,. Leedle Herman Schaefer was
very much on his job, and-well. we Just
couldn't do anything else but win. with
Walter Johnson showing improved class
on the mound and our leedle Herman
Schaefer CaVorting around everywhere
just as If he liked it.
Not till the third did the Nationals
get going against the varieSated shoots
and benders of Willie Mitchell, pre-
possessing young sOuthpaw. But when
they got going-well, well, well deep
voice., there wasn't a thing to 1t.
Cunningham started IL by slapping a
terrific poke toward "Cottontop" Turner
1t just grazed his finger and caTomed
off into the rathskeller back of third.
Cunningham reached second. and il ap-
peared as if he might have taken anoth-
er cushion. Powerful Gabby' Street
vbligingly sacrificed him along and
johnson. with every fan imploring him
to do something, swung idly at the pass
ing zephyrs.
SZeb'' Milan was also implored a bit.
but Mitchell didn't like him, anyway,
and plunked him in the shoulder blade.
Thus it came around to our leedle Her

JOHNSON CERTAIN
CHANGE WAS MADE
All But Elberfeld Noticed Differ
/ ence-Hard Drives Cited
AS Proof.
By SENATOR"

Late this afternoon it was an
nOunced at baseball headquarters
that Clarence Walker, the young out
fielder signed for the Nationals by
Nike KahOe, would Join the team
here tomorrow, coming direct from
SpartanbUrg, S. G., where he has
been playing in the Carolina AssO-
citation. He had not been expected
before June Is.
Members of the Nationals are sure
that they have not been furnished
with the new lively ball in the last
two games played by them against the
Cleveland Naplanders, and voice the
opinion that such shunting back and
forth Of the new ball is causing them
considerable difficulty in fielding.
I'm sure in my own mind said
Walter johnson today. that the ball
l used yesterday was not the new,
lively one. There wasn't a hard hit
off me. The ball didn't seem to go
right 1 think it was the old ball we
used last year"
That's right" chimed in Jack Leli-
welt. that long drive OF Joe Birming-
hams that Milan took yesterday, didn't
go half far enough for il to be the new
bail. Why. last week drives like that
were going clear to the fence.
The Nationals point to the two long
drives made by Bill Cunningham and
George Mcbride yesterday to prove
their point, that the lively ran was
taken out in favor of the old and less
lively sphere. The infielders also de-
clare, with the lone exception of Kid
EIberfeld, that they noticed the differ
ance in the hops taken by the ball
yesterday.
Looking for Berth.
Warren Miller is still at loss to
know where he is to play VIXEN his ten
DAYS notice expires. He will become a
free agent automatically next Thurs
day, and is burning up the w.res try
ing TO find suitable place TO land when
he quits his National uniform. He has
heard nothing from either Jack Cal
houn, in Elmira, or Ed Aschenbach, IN
Syracuse, and today. hearing that an
outfelder was wanted in Albany, wired
Manager Jim Tamsett regarding the po-
sition.
Hugh High. the pitcher obtained by
Mike Kahoe from the Norfolk club of
the Tidewater League, has been let go
by Manager McAleer after a try-out
against the sluggers of the Nationals.
High, according to McAleer. fails 20
show control. and lack of control is a
mortal sin in a twtrler.
Nay Get Griggs.
If waivers are asked on Arthur
Griggs, the Naplanders' utility player.
Jimmy McAleer will endeavor to get
him. but right now he does not know
that waivers have been asked. Mana
ger StoValI also is ignorant of such
waivers, and there the matter rests.
ais might also use Griggs.
Sherry's Chance.
Fred Sherry is carded to start tomor-
rows battle against the White Sox.
The Honesdale kid has done so we'll on

he has fairly earned this chance.

in this section.
Despite rather unfavorable weather,
everything went through in good order

Papke's victory.

Billy Papke moved up another step
toward the middle Weight championship
in London last night. when he won a
clean cut victory over Jim Sullivan. the
English title holder.
1t was Just the sort Of bout Papke
usually puts up. At lcng range he suf-
fered I'll comparison with his rival. but
by carrying the fight right through the
guard of the Englishman he kept wor-
rying Sullivan until the psychological
moment arrived and landed the savage
uppercut that landed his opponent.
Now if Cyclone Thompson will favor
Papke with an engagement there should
be some real excitement in the puzilis-
tic world.

SUN BROS. SHOW
Record Breaking Crowd Attends
It at WhitwsII.

Sun Bros. gave two performances
at Whitwell Saturday which was at,
tended by record-breaking crowd
in the afternoon, estimated at $500
The attendance was not so large al
the evening performance.
The performance was excellent
and possessed many features of inter
est. The riding was good and the
costumes of the lady riders especially
handsome and brilliant The work
of the japanese performers was fine
and new to the most of the specta-
tors. The acrobatic performers were
also up to their job and some nice
work done. Trapese work was also
done in plenty and clowns made
an abundance of merriment, as well
as doing good acts on the program
The work Of the two elephants was
of high order, the animals going thru
difficult repertory with celebrity and
almost without direction.
Previous to the performance lit
tie dog took high dive into net,
and Japanese walked rope to the
top of the tent and slid down again
in an upright position.
There were not N any animals in
connection with the show, but what
they had were well-kept and hand
some. Their horses were fine speci-
mems of equine flesh, and as fat as
'possoms.
There were no gambling features.
1t was, as said, good clean show
and enjoyed by the multitude pre-
sented, who digested large quantities
of peanuts and popcorn, drank le-
monade a wee bit of lemon in
it-and cooled off with ice cream
all while intently watching the thrill
ing and interesting things going on
around them.

TRAVELLING LIBRARIES.

The State has established travel
ing Libraries, for the use of the citl-
zens, the only cost being the matter
of freight between any point and
Nashville. The way to get the use
of these libraries is to form reading
club and make application for a IL
brary to Mrs. Pearl Williams Kelly,
General Secretary, Free Library
Commission, Capitol, Nashv lille
Tenn. The only restriction is the
signatures of three responsible citl-
zeps to ensure that the books will be
taken proper care of, and returned
at times specified, which is from
three to six months. The libraries
embrace books of general reading,
history biography, agriculture, house
hold economics, etc. There is an
awful lack of the reading habit In
Tennessee. In Boston, the acknowl-
edged centre of learning, people
read all the time available, down
here most of the people read none OF
the time available, but sit on their
launches gazing into fire in winter
time, or at nothing in particular IN
summer time. The achievement OF
of the reading habit would be a
blessing, indeed, so as to get rid OF
this tiathead movement. Let us have
more bullying foreheads, II 1T were
possible, so that people can talk
about something besides their neigh
boris affairs To aid in this move
ment the News is willing to help Sc
cure of set of these books, and if
twenty. five can be found IN this
town who will enter such club, 1t
will endeavor to secure library
This does not mean that twenty five
are to sit in a row and read the
books, one after another, but the
books are lakento their homes and
there read carefully and understand
ingly. The cost to each one OF the
twenty-five would be very small,
OF course those who would not take
care Of the books, nor return them
promptly, nor read them when bor-
rowed, are not wanted in such a
club

Deafness CANNOT be Cured

by local application as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
andthat is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an lnflamed con,
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube gets in
famed you have a rumpling sound of
imperfect bearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed deafness is theresult, and
unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to it's normal
condition. hearing will be destroyed
forever; nihe cases out of ten are caus-
ed by catarrh, which is nothing but an
infiamed condition of the mucous sur
faces
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls
Catarrh Cure.
