HUSBAND RESCUED
 tlDEsPA!RING WIFE
After Four Years of Discouraging Conditions, Mrs. Bullock Gave Up in Despair. Husband
 Came to Rescue.

Catron, Ky.-ln an interesting letter from this place, Mrs. Bettie Bullock writes as follows: 'I suffered for four years, with womanly troubles, and during this time, l could only sit up for a little while, and could not walk anywhere at all. At times, would have severe pains in my left side.
 The doctor was called in, and his treat ment relieved me for while, but was soon confined to my bed again. After that, nothing seemed to do me any good. l had gotten so weak l could not stand, and gave Up in despair.
 At last, my husband got me bottle of Cardui, the woman's tonic, and 1 com menced taking it. From the very first dose, l could tell it was helping me. I can now walk two miles without it's tiring me, and am doing my work"
 If you are all run down from womanly troubles, don't give up in despair. Try Cardul, the woman'S tonic. It has helped more than million women, in it's 30 years of wonderful success, and should surely help you, too. Your druggist has sold Cardui for years. He knows what it will do. Ask him. He will recofn- mend it. Begin taking Cardui today.

 The climax of the weeks enter- tainmeut features will be the pro- duction of Rostand's best comedy, "Ihe Romancers' by the Frank Lea Short Players These splendid actors have given this play many times be- fore colleges, literary and social clubs. and yceum audiences with universal success, The plot of the play cenLeFs around the romantic ad- ventures of Sylyette and Percinet, the scions of neighboring but un- neiglihoriy families The comedy ele- ment is introduced by a picturesque swashuucking character, Straforel and his band of brigands, True to its designation, the play is a comedy, and all ends well in the last act. The members of this company are all persons of the best character, and there is nothing in the play to offend the conscience of any one. The author of the play Edmond Rostand.

merly of this city and now Vice Presi- dent of the Panama Canal Baseball League came here with the proposal that the two clubs train at Panama next year. He stated that the teams would work under perfect weather conditions. Neither of the clubs, however, could consider the offer ow- ing to the long trip involved. It takes seven days to reach the Canal zone by boat from this city. Other conditions too would preclude the possibility of training at Panama, the parks there having no accommo oda- tions for the players. Martin con- sidered that the trip of the two clubs would do much to add interest to the sport at Panama. In talking of the situation down there he said that there was now an eight club league, the players being those employed in the Canal Zone, men from the Army and civilians.

PhillieS Made FeWeSt Hits and
 Had Few Left on Paths

New York Oct 3O.-The records runs, hits, errors and mon left on the bases for the season just closed furnishes data for interesting study. In the National league, the Philadel- phia club which won the pennant made next to the largest number of runs with the smallest total of hits. The Phillies also had fewer men left on bases than any other club and made next to the least number of errors The Boston Braves were third in run making, seventh in hitting, first in number of stranded runners and made less errors than any of their ri- vals. St. Louis made the greatest number of runs; Cincinnati led in hits, Chicago in errors and Boston in runners left.
 The Boston Red Sox, worlds cham pions and American league pennant winners, were third in the run mak- ing in the junior league; first in total number of hits; kept their errors down next to the lowest total but had more runners marooned than any other club except Detroit. The Tigers, runer-up to the Red SoX, made more runs than any other American league combina- tion; were second in hitting; fourth in errors and first in left on bases. The Chicago White Sox were second in run making; third in hits; third lowest in errors and second lowest in base runners stranded.
 The following tabulations show the number of games played, won, lost and tied together with the total of runs, hits, errors, and left on bases for the season of 1915, in both leagues:

SIoman Can Travel.

Apparently the Pacific Coast is de- Veloping another cinder path flyer in Frank Sloman, the youth who recently broke the American interscholastic record for the quarter mile by rum ming that distance in 4S Is seconds. An idea of this schoolboys speed can be gathered from the fact that al- though thousands of 440 yard dashes have been run in the past fifteen years the record has been broken but three times.
 In 1901 c. Long set the time at 50 1-5 seconds where it remained un- til Ted Meredith cut 1t down to AS 4-5 seconds in 1912 while attending Mer- cersberg Academy. Three years later Sloman cut three-fifths of a second off Merediths time and if he con- tinues to improve as Ted did after graduation from scholastic ranks, the California lad will eventually rank with the great quarter milers of ath- letic history including Wendell Baker, Maxey Long, Reidpath, Lon Myers, Burke, Moulton, Taylor, Downs and Meredith.

JOHNNY POE KILLED.
Former Tiger Football Star Killed at
 Front With Allies.

Baltimore, Md, Oct. 3O.-John Prentice Poe, IT,, a famous Princeton football player in the early '9O's, was killed on September 22, while fighting as private in the British army along the northern boundary of France. Word to that effect was received from the London war bureau today by rela- tiH es in this city. Poe was born in Baltimore forty years ago. He won international fame as a captain in the Honduran army, when with handful of men in fort at Amalpa Harbor, he opened fire on a Nicaraguan gun boat, sending it scurrying away under the impression that the Hondurans had a big force at the fort. When last heard from Poe was a member of the Black Watch regiment.

MOran'S Chances.

Frank Moran, through his decisive defeat of Jim Coffey, has crowded bit nearer to bout with Jess Willard. That the title holder will agree to meet Moran in a ten round battle with or without decision is quite unlikely. Willard by no stretch of imagination can be termed a whirlwind fighter. In order to win on points or knockout inside ten rounds the conqueror of Johnson would have to travel at race far in excess of anything he has shown to date.
 In a twenty or twenty-five round contest Willard would be in a posi- ton to wear down his opponent in the

 of a revision of the rules shortly
 forecasted and the letters from deans of both Princeton and liar
 asking for a reinstatement of the ers were published, together with
 Corwin's reply to Harvard,

 violated one of our rules, even
 gh it was our belief that the rule aiming to summer baseball has not
 worded, construed or generally $rced in such manner as to Eet the purposes of it's authors. I me that the expressed wish of yard graduates and undergradu- that Yale should not allow these to withdraw from athletics can be based upon similar belief, I am confident that Yale would glad to join with Harvard and Rceton in amending the rule. harvard has in it's rules covering Inner baseball a clause which per your committee to exercise dis lion in the enforcement of the rule Judging each case that may arise $ts merits.

Lucky Jack Barry.

Some baseball players achieve niches in the Hall of Fame and others have records wrecked in the world s series. Jack Barry, however, is in a class by himself. All Jack does is to jump from one club to another as pennant chances wax and wane and collect an abnormal share of the post-season receipts. Since 1910 Bar ry has played in five worlds series thereby enriching his bank roll to the extent of $14,821.15 This comes close to batting 1000 in the Financial league.

ROYCE TO RE:JOIN GIANTS.

Steve Royce, the Hamilton college pitcher who signed with the Giants a couple of seasons ago after he had pitched several games in which he struck out many of the batsmen who faced him, has changed his mind about abandoning the game and will go South with Manager McGraw next Spring. In one game two seasons ago Royce famed twentyone batsmen. Royce sat for a time on the Giants bench and got tired of the inactivity. He quit the Giants and began to study law He was sorry afterward, be- cause the Giants would have been glad to use him this season when they were in the ruck. He has been in communication with Manager Me Graw again and the Giant manager has assured him that he will get fair trial early in the next season. So next Spring Steve will lay aside his Blackstone and try for a regular place on the pitching staff.

Whats the matter with that light weight crowd? We haven't had a twenty-round lightweight champion ship battle in this country for about two years. All this time there haze been at least three or four of them evenly matched, but in place of meet ing over the twenty-round distance they seem willing enough to let the title go hang while they pick up the easy money.

Some idea of Moran's ability over a distance route can be gathered from the fact that he fought twenty rounds with Jack Johnson in Paris on July 4, 1914. Although he lost the decision on the points the same would have been true of Willard had has his battle with Johnson in Havana last April been limited to a similar number of rounds.
