HERzoG LOSES HIS CLAIM.
National Commission Decides Against
Boston PLAYER

Ndttondt commission Decides Against
Boston Player.
Cincinnati, Feb. &C. L. Herzog's
claim of $S66.66 against the Boston Ma
tional league club for salary during his
suspension from July to August was
disallowed by the national baseball
commission today. Incidentally the
commission shed some light on the
Boston club which led to his suspen-
sion on charges of INSTRUMENTATION
preferred by Manager Fred Lake. 1.-THE
players defense to the charge of re-
bellion," says the finding, sis that
when accused by his manager Of try
inc to supplant him in the presence of
PRESIDENT Dewey he entered a denial
and when Lake added that he (Herzog)
had stated he was through with the
Boston club he replied, You get an
other third baseman. Before I will
play under a man like you I will quit
the business The commission found
that the Boston club was justified in
suspending the player for his arbi-
trary disregard of discipline.
The decision disclosed that Herzog's
contract for 1909 with New York called
for a salary of 81, 800; that his 1910
agreement was for $1,000 with Boston
and that he also collected $500 bonus
in mfdseason, which additional amount
was contracted for on condition that
he take part in all championship
games.

DEEP SEATED COUGH
Cured In S Hours.
New Homemade Syrup.
LFrom Boston Press.1

Progress in medical compounds new
er. ceases, and now it is stated by
prominent medical man that any deep
seated cough or cold on the lungs can
be actually cured in five hours by the
clock. Opium and morphine have been
resorted to in the past, as relief meas
ures. But now it is learned that the
system must be treated to rid it of in
fammation and congestion. A tonic
laxative cough syrup does the work
SO quickly and thoroughly as to be
almost magical. What heretofore has
taken weeks to cure can be accom-
plished in hours. Get this formula
filed or mix it at home and always
keep it on hand: One-half ounce fluid
wild cherry bark, one ounce COM
pound essence cardiol and three
ounces syrup white pine compound.
Shake the bottle and take twenty drops
every half hour for four hours. Then
take one-half to one teaspoonful three
or four times day until the system is
purified and toned up. Give your chill
dren less according to age. One filling
will usually cure a whole family, as
the dose is small.

AGGIEs VS.. RAzoRBACKs AT X. @.
With Kansas Missouri Game Out
Prospects Are Fine.

Kansas City, Feb. 9-The Kansas
"Aggies'' and the Arkansas Razor
backs" will play a game Of football IN
Kansas City next fall. The game will
not be played on Thanksgiving day,
but probably on an early November
date. The athletic arrangements Of
the two schools have been negotiating
for this contest for several weeks and
the managers may meet here soon to
close the arrangements.
The two elevens met last year at
F'ayettevi11a and Bezdek with a much
lighter team held the powerful Aggies
to one touchdown, a 5 to game. The
negotiations for a Car1isle-Kansas Ag-
gle game have been dropped. The atln-
letic advisory board at Manhattan de-
cided against such a game. The K. s..
A. C. desires to break into the select
circle of the Missouri Valley confer
ence and the board probably figured
that it would be unwise to play a
Thanksgiving day game here when
Missouri and Kansas decided against
their annual turkey day game.
