RAILROAD men
TO ORGANIZE A
BASEBALLLEACUE
Frisco Employees to Form
Teams i'm Six Cities. In

HENSHAW TO MANAGE
TEAM IN THE CAPE
WOrkmen to Finance League and
Railroad Will Furnish
Transportation.

A movement is on foot among the
Frisco employees from Memphis to ST.
Louis, to organize a base ball league,
with teams composed exclusively of
railroad men. Six towns are to be
represented in the league, and those
agreed upon are Memphis, Newburg
Monnette, Springfield, Cape Girardeau
and St. Louis.
Wednesday afternoon meetings were
held in this and other cities included in
the league, for the purpose of devils
ing means for promotion of the enter
prise.
Contributions and subscriptions will
be solicited among the railroad en-
ployes over the entire system, and
transportation will be furnished the
teams by the company.
Games will, be arranged for times
when the regular resident teams have
Grcr dates. so that there will be no
conflict, and in fact. will be an in
creased entertainment for the fans
At the meeting in this city, James
Henshaw, general foreman of machin-
lists was made manager of the local
team.
The work of organizing and secur-
ing players will begin at once, and BY
the time the season opens each city
will be prepared to enter into the
campaign. Numbers of games are
scheduled for each town during the
summer. and all the holidays and most
of the Sundays will be devoted to the
sport.
1t is the intention Of the railroad
league to arrange for the use Of the
regular ball parks in the various
cities and to fix dates III such manner
as to cause no interference.
There is much good material avail
able among the railroad men, and it
is believed that the league in contem-
plation will be one of the strongest
minor associations in the country.
Other meetings will be held in the
near future and all arrangements ne
cessary for the organization will be
perfected as quickly as possible.

water sent from here by me since this
controversity, have been put up in the
same way-in special containers sent
from the State University.
Each time the cOntalner was filled
with as large piece of ice as it was
possible to put in. Mr.. Tinsley knows
these to be facts, for he or Prof. Ma
gill was present each time water was
prepared to be sent away, with the ex-
ccption of one time, and then | had
two witnesses.

of Mr.. Tinsley in making tests, even
when they were absolutely under his

tive Of the city being present. There

tempt to leave the impression with
your Honorable Body" that these
samples were not taken properly.
The sterilized bottle with ground
glass shoppers were sent in special
containers and not opened until the
samples were taken, then each time
packed in ice and put on the express
car, and out of town in one hour from
the time they were taken.
The Utilities Company, in the past
ten days, have installed, what | would
call an automatic mixer, run by 4
motor that keeps the lime constantly
mixed wit hthe water going into the
sterilizing basin. Since then we find
the water coming from the taps much
clearer, and we hope, free from OBJ
jectiOnable foreign matter.
We feel that the water at the pres
cnt time is practically a safe one, due
to the high stage of the river. We al
so know that there is a possibility of
the temporary intake which was con-
structed out into the river when the
river was at a low stage, being broken
off by the heavy ice recently as it was
before. IL Sucn Is the case, the water !
is now being drawn from the mouth
of Sloan's Creek, the outlet for all the
sewage from the State Normal School /
and the northern part of town.
With the amount of money that the |
Utilities Company draws from this /
town each month, we should be fur
nished water that there should be no
question as to it purity. We hope to
accomplish these results without any
drastic action on our part; but we
must have good water and know that
t is going to stay good.

If BACK HURTS use
SALTS FOR KIDNEYS
EAT LESS MEAT If KIDNEYS FEEL
LIKE LEAD OR BLADDER
BOTHERS.

Most folks forget that the kidneys
like the bowels, get sluggish and
cIogged and need a flushing occasional
ly, else we have backache and dull
misery in the kidney region, severe
headaches, rheumatic twinges, torpid
liver, acid stomach, sleeplessness and
all sorts of bladder disorders.
You simply must keep your kidneys
active and clean, and the moment you
feel an ache or pain in the kidney
region, get about four ounces Of Jad
Salts from any good drug store here,
take tablespoonful in glass of-water
before breakfast for few days and
your kidneys will then act fine. This
famous salts is made from the acid of
grapes and lemon Juice, combined with
lithia, and is harmless to flush clogged
kidneys and stimulate them to normal
activity. It also neutralizes the acids
in the urine so 1T no longer trritates,
thus ending bladder disorders.
jad Salts is harmless; inexpensive;
makes delightful efervescent lithia-
water drink which everybody should
take now and then to keep their kidneys
clean, thus avoiding serious coinpiica-
tons.
A well known local druggist says he
sells lots Of Jad Salts to folks who be-
lieye in overcoming kidney trouble

Local Interest ii,

Spanish War Battle

That local interest in the Johnson

strongly attested by the great crowd
that gathered in front of the T.-R. Of
flee at noon and increased steadily I'M
til the last bulletin was posted. Had
one Of the most important battles of
the Spanish American war been in
progress, or some other event of ma
tion-wide Importance, there could
hardly have been more interest dis
played than there was in this contest
of brute strength between two human
beings
During the early rounds. when John
son seemed to be having the better of
the argument, the crowd was quiet and
seemingly dissatisfied, but as Willard
gradually strengthened in the later
rounds. more interest was manifested,
and when the flash that Willard had
won was received ant; posted, a great
cheer went up from the throng, which
Immediately scattered to spread the
news.
Besides the crowd that gathered in
front of the office, both telephones in
the city room We're kept ringing con-
stantly. the calls coming in from offices
and business houses all over the city.
Even the small towns nearby called up
frequently and kept the wires hot with
calls. Most of the calls We're from
masculine voices. but now and then
feminine tones would come over the
wire. When one such dulcet voice was
told that Johnson. had the better of the
fight up to the seventeenth round, the
answer was "Oh, shoot, I think that's
mean" Included in the crowd in front
of the office were a few colored people.

Several men who had bet on john

triumph by sheer strength. expressed
themselves as pleased at having lost
