One of the most remarkable proofs Of
the unusual laxative merit contained in

effective not only in people in the prime

many letters are received from mothers
regarding the cures of children as from
men and women of sixty, seventy, and
eighty years OF age. 1t must be truly a
wonderful laxative
In the cure of constipation and bowel
trouble in old people IL has no equal. It
corrects the constipation. dispels the
headache, biliousness, gas, drowsiness

Yale Eight Did
 Not Hope To Win
Coach KennedyNot Disheartened
 at Eli's Defeat by Cornell and Princeton
Especial from United Press.)

New Haven, May 22-"We didn't ex- pect to do anything at Princeton, Saturday. We did not expect to win. It was practically new crew row. ing against Cornell and Princeton, a new stroke in the boat, new men at Nos. and and we could not expect to see such an arrangement come out in front. Only we wanted the Ellis to get the experience to see how they would act. You won't recognize the same crew in three weeks This was the first statement by Coach John Kennedy. of Yale, today, since the Saturday boat race on Car negie Lake when Cornell and Prince ton easily defeated a crew from Yale over a course one and three quarter miles long. A week before the race at Tigertown a crew from the Univer- sity of Pennsylvania badly defeated the Ellis at Springfield, Mass The bulldogs poor showing in both races has cast a gloom over Yale rowing circles.
 Coach Kennedy, today, stated that he would train practically the same crew that rowed at Princeton for the race against Harvard on the Thames, June 30. The men had displayed level heads in the Saturday race, he said. The crew will go to New London about the second week in June The Eli varsity boat did not take the wa ter this afternoon The first practice since Saturdays defeat will be taken, tomorrow

LOSE CLOSE
 CONTEST AT
 NORTHAMPTON Mechanics Made Rally in Ninth, But Were Shy One Run
(Springfeld Union.)

Northampton. May 22.-The local baseball team took fall out of the Bridgeport sphere pounders Saturday and won out. to 5, in a game full of thrills. The visitors made a game attempt to rally in the ninth and got to Mclean for four hits, but sharp fielding by Yale and Mclean cut off the rally so that only one man scored. Bridgeport started the scoring in the third by anneXing four tallies and apparently had solved McLean's de- livery, but the veteran had some thing on the pill and forced the last man to fly out. Gus Gardella made a wonderful catch of Stowe's liner in the second, chasing the ball way up in the air and twisting his glove around so that the pill stuck. Both pitchers were working well. Only one pass was issued and base runners were held close to the bags. Litschi won the batting honors with a double and a single to his credit. while Hall, Russell and Newton each collected brace of singles.
 Both teams were retired in order opened the third with a single to left. He stole second and scored when Russell singled to right and Flanagan threw the ball to second instead of home, where he had ample time to catch the runner. Uppie
 
 Eley sacrificed the runners up base and Litschi poked a little hit to left for a base, Hall scoring. Crook then hammered a long one to Foran and Upham scored Hi Ladd was given a pass. Kauff hit to Foran, who huff ed the ball. but Stowe flied out to Luby, retiring the side.
 The ninth inning was started with a rush. and for a time it looked as though Bridgeport was going to win. as the Mechanics got to Mclean handily. Stowe singled past short, after which Hall hit to left. Russell hit to Mclean and got to first while the pitcher was throwing Stowe out at third. Snyder was sent in for Upham and hit to short. Burns begged to Yale too late to get his man, but the first baseman then heaved to Flaherty in time to get Hall at the plate on a close decision. Russell then scored on a hit by Eley. With two down, Litschi grounded to Newton and was put out at first.

 For Pittsburgers
Electric Device Will Keep Fans Informed of Strikes and
 Balls

Pittsburg, Pa, May 22.-Wiremen worked all day Sunday on the worlds largest electric scoreboard, which is to be a feature of the enlarged ball park at Forbes Field when the Pirates return from their Eastern trip to open the series here with Cincinnati.
 The new electric device will re- place the old hand-operated board. In keeping with the grand stand and playing field, this board will be a brobdingnagian affair. 4S feet broad and 24 feet high, and with the con crete foundation will rise 40 feet from the ground.
 Huge figures, showing the batter, strikes and balls Gas called,) out and so forth, will be flashed by electricity as quickly as the decisions are made, and on the board will also be shown the progress of other games playe on the circuit, a ticker service being tablished direct with the board.
 The ground changes will give 3S feet more depth to left field and 56 feet additional to centre field. Fred Clarke will have a chance to stop numerous drives that have always been safe over the fence for home runs before the present changes.

PLAY BALL SUNDAYS AT
 STEEPLECHASE
Bleachers Seating 4,O0O Erected
 For Game May 28

Sunday ball will be started at Steepfechase next Sunday. Manager McCann announced that the Me chanics would play a league game there but says he hasn't decided which team will be the attraction. He has only one postponed game so far and that is in Springfield. He doesn't think the Ponies will consent to trans ferring the game here. It is prob able that one of the Monday games will be advanced so that the fans will be able to see a league contest on Sunday.
 Bleachers with seating capacity of 4,000 have been erected at the is- land and the diamond has been put into fine shape. Workmen have been working there for over a week. Man ager McCann says that only one ad- mission will be charged. There will be no charge for the grandstand. It is expected that a big crowd will be on hand next Sunday.

Sport Notes Of Interest

Poughkeepsie, N. Y, May 22-There is great disappointment here over the announcement that Wisconsin will not have her four pared crew in this years intercollegiate race on the Hud- son. The experts look for another Cornell triumph owing to the great showing Charley Courtney's boys made at Princeton, Saturday. They think, also that Columbia will have a good chance to finish 1-2 in the varsity be- cause of the way the New York eight is going.
 New York, May 22-The A. A. U. will probably at it's next meeting adopt a rule prohibiting an amateur athletic club cooperating with a pro- fessional in conducting any branch of sport as the outcome of the fiasco at Madison Square Garden. last week, when an international boxing contest f1zzled out.
 New York, May 22-Alfred De Gro and Charles Weston of Chicago, will play another match for the pool cham pionship beginning on Thursday night, at Doyle's.
 New York, May 22-Tommy Murphy and Knockout Brown will box the rub Der match on Thursday, each having a popular OeC1SlOn to tnelr credit. Should Tommy be able to take the Dutchman into camp he has a match with Ad Wolgast.
 Cambridge, May 22,-The coaches, to- day, began a strenuous effort to dis cover what is lacking in the Harvard baseball nine. The two defeats of last week proved a stunning blow to the crimson, the more so because en- tirely unexpected All through the season the players have been looked upon as full of good stickers but in the last two games they were found woefully wanting in this department.
