W Nth the practice season now
Nv just the rise of two weeks
distant, William Andrew
Smith is devoting his time and at
tention to two things, as follows:
l. Soaring up another catcher.
2. Getting the ball park in shape.
Until last night at about $50
o'clock William Andrew also had an
other job on his hands, to wit: Re
hearsing his speech of acceptance OF
the Honey Boy" Evans Southern
League batting trophy, won by Harry
Welchonce.
Mr.. Welchonce being elsewhere. and
the Fl. Il. minstrels opening their
stand at the Atlanta Theater Monday
night, William Andrew had To take
the Chauncey Depoo Job on his own
shoulders with Major Galloway in the
wings as prompter, with the speech in
one hand and a hook in the other, IN
case William Andrew stalled too long.
M EITHER the prompting nor the
hook was required, as w. A., for

tation speech of Mayor Woodward.
After the show Billy had the dick

sibility too deeply to intrust II TO other
hands, and it Is understood that not
being able TO get To safe deposit

however is not suhstantiated

NEW YORK. Feb. 1.-THE Ma
" tional League, once the might
lest power in baseball, to-day
is on the brink of observation-disclosures
lied baseball, as it is constituted, at
present, is face to face with the pos
sibility OF dissolution. And the Fed
eral League to-day looms up as even
q mightier foe for organized baseball
than did the American League back
III 1901, when it made its winning
fight on the National League.
Disciplined by its own leaders, sub
iected to the merciless attacks of the
Federals and practically unsupported
by its American League allies, the
National League is in a sorry plight.
Not only have the Americans failed
to exert every effort to help the Ma
tionals, but Ban johnson and his
aides have delivered the final crush
ing blow with their ultimatum:
80 EFT rid of Murphy His actions
~ not only are affecting the in
terests of the National League, but
our interests and the entire interests
of organized baseball as well. Let
loose Of Murphy or take the conse-
quences"
And the consequences in this in
stance seems to mean that unless
the National League aCcomplishes the
immediate firing of Murphy, the
American League will cut itself loose
from the Nationals and form a new
organization. The minor league or
ganiza lions have enough confidence
in Ban Johnson to follow his lead.
The National League nsgnates
want to rid themselves of Murphy.
but Murphy has declared that he
won't cut loose

SKIN CLEARED.
BY Simple Change in Food.

It has been said by physician that
most diseases are the result of indi-
gestion.
There's undoubtedly much truth in
the statement, even to the cause of
many unsightly eruptions, which many
suppose can be removed by applying
some remedy on the outside.
By changing her food a Kan. girl
was relieved of an eczema which was
Q great annoyance to her. She writes:
For five months l was suffering
with an eruption on my face and
hands which our doctor called eczema
and which caused me a great deal Of
Inconvenience The suffering was al
most unbearable.
The medicine / took only gave me
temporary relief One day I happened
to read somewhere that eczema was
caused by indigestion. Then I read
that many persons had been relieved
OF INDIGESTION by eating Grape-Nuts.
Il decided to try it. I liked the
taste of the food and was particularly
pleased to notice that my digestion
Ras improving and that the eruption
was disappearing as il by magic i
