Barrow Is Fair.
New York, Jan. 23.-Pres. Edward
Barrow Of the international league
said yesterday that the few players of
the league who have jumped to the
Federal league will have until the
opening Of the season to reconsider
their action. After that date they will
be eliminated as far as the Interna-
tional league is concerned.
The stories being sent out from
Federal league headquarters regarding
certain players and umpires being
signed are reports made out OF the
whole CLOTH" said BarroWs, with the
evident intention Of deceiving h ball
players and encouraging them 70 join
the Federal organization. AS an u
tratiOn, 1 can state that Umpire Brick
Owens, whom the Federal league
claims to have signed up, was signed
ONE ten days ago to an International
league contract.

from Ban Johnson, president of the

the New York Americans catcher, had
received an offer which would prob
ably result in his remaining with the
Yankees, despite a good proposition
from the Federals.

Pittsburgh, Jan. 23.-Sporting writ

that he will be in condition in time

the Fargo college squad is somewhat
weak on connecting with the ring, but
a decided improvement is noticeable
each night.

Cincinnati, O., Jan. 23.-This city,
which is the headquarters Of organ
lied baseball, inasmuch as the office
of the national commission is located
here, is seriously threatened by an in
vasion of the Federal league. At a
secret meeting Wednesday night in the
office of a law firm it was practically
decided to switch the franchise Of the
Toronto Federal league club to Clncin-
natl.
At the meeting were Pres. James
A. Gilmore Of the Federal league; E.
r. Gates, counsel for the league;
Joseph Dixon, president of h newly
organized city league, and Paul Con-
nelly, an attorney.
Dixon, who is prominent in amateur
sports, particularly baseball, outlin-
ed the local situation to Gilmore and
Gates. A site for a new ball park
within fifteen minutes ride of the
heart of the city was considered, but
nothing positive was determined eX-
Cept that Dixon would direct the new
club if an invasion Of this territory
is decided upon.
It is understood that Gilmore and
Gates will return to the city soon to
go deeper into the matter and arrange
financial details.

"CASCARETS" FOR
LIVER HEADACHE

ED-CLEAN UP INSIDE AND
FEEL BULLY.
Get a Decent box now.

Get a 10-cent box now
You're bilious! You have a %throbbing
sensation in your head, a. bad taste
in your mouth, your eyes burn, your
skin Is yellow, with dark rings under
your eyes; your lips are parched. No
wonder you feel ugly, mean and ILL
tempered. Your system is full of
bile not properly passed off, and what
you need is a cleaning up inside.
Don't continue being a bilious nui-
sance to yourself and those who love
you. and don't resort to harsh physics
that irritate and injure. Remember
that most disorders Of the stomach,
liver and bowels are cured by morning
with gentle, thorough Cascarets-they
work while you sleep. A 10-cent box
from your druggist will keep your liver
and bowels clean; stomach sweet, and
your head clear for months. Children
love to take Cascarets, because they
taste good and never grippe or sicken.

Big SCORE MADE

Smith, of the Nestor bowling team,
came within an ace of making a per-
feet score yesterday. He made ten
strikes and finished with 265. An n
fortunate split in the second frame
was all that prevented the making of
a record which would have stood for
a long time to come. And Smith had
to use his "Benarfa finger" at that,
owing to the accident which crushed
his first and second fingers a few days
ago.

Introduces Traffic Ordnance.

Alderman Beurhaus introduced an
amendment to the traffic ordinance of
October II, 1911, at the last meeting
of the city council which added sew
eral sections to that part of the Ordin-
ance which relates to the operation of
automobiles, motor cycles and similar
motor vehicles. By the terms of the
amendment, which advanced to the
second reading and was then laid
over, chauffeurs under the age of 16
years are made violators of the law,
in fact no person under this age is
allowed to be passenger unless ac-
companied by a parent, guardian, or
other suitable adult person.
At street intersections, when two
autos or other rigs approach at the
same time, the driver of a machine is
given the right of way over car
which is on his left hand, and must
yield to rigs on his right Thus a
car crossing Main street by travelling
south on cross street would have
the right of way over car proceeding
east on Main.
Autos and other motor vehicles
must stop for street cars taking on
or discharging passengers, and must
display at least one front light and a
red tail light from 80 minutes after
sundown in the evening until 80 min
utes before sunrise in the morning.
The rate of speed at all times must
conform to safety, provisions of speed
being made for reduction of speed at
corners, when passing school houses,
and through parks or cemeteries.
