When Garry Herman heard that
the New York Americans had purch-
ased Dan Triple, the pitching sensa-
ton of the indianapolis A. A. club, he
stated: There is working agree
ment between the Cincinnati and In
dianaolis clubs which gives the Reds
first chance over the other big league
clubs for Triples services Evidently
Herman did not see fit to exercise his
option, since the latest bulletin of the
National Association of Professional
Baseball Leagues show that Triple
has been purchased by the Yankees.

NEW YORK, August Judging
from the number of entries received
the 43rd regatta of the National Asso-
citation of Amateur Oarsmen of the
United States, to be held on the Con-
necticut river at Springfield next Fri
day and Saturday should be one of the
most successful in the history of the
organization. Nearly every prominent
club east of the Rockies is represented.
while the Canadian contingent headed
by Robert Dibble of Toronto, the hold
er of the single SOULS championship, is
larger than anticipated, in view of the
war.
The National Regatta returns to
Springfield after a period of seven
years. The races last year were held
at Philadelphia where the first regatta
was rowed in 1873. The National As
sociation was formed the year previous
in New York in order to bring the
sport under the supervision of rec
ognized governing board. Up to that
time oarsmen. who rowed for sport
only, frequently INDUCED in races with
professionals for cash prizes and even
Harvard University crews were COM
PEELED to enter such events in order to
race. President emeritus, Charles w.
Eliot, of Harvard, rowed on Crimson
crew as a student for cash prize,
and under strict Interpretation
would still be called professional. 1t
is recorded however that the winnings
of such Harvard crews were always
turned over to chaT
The Springfield regatta will be held
on the east side of the Connecticut
river below the old toll bridge. The

FAMILY AVOIDS
SERIOUS SICKNESS
By Being Constantly Supplied With
Thedford's Black Draught.

McDuff, Va.-s'I suffered for several
ears" says Mrs. B. Whitaker, Of
This place, with sick headache. and
stomach trouble.
Ten years ago friend told me to try
Thedford's Black-Draught, which | did.
and found it to be the best family medi-
cine for young and old.
keep Black-Draugkt on hand all the
time now, and when my children feel a
little bad, they ask me for a dose, and it
does them more good than any medicine
they ever tried.
We never have long spell of sick
ness in Our family, since we commenced
using Black Draught."
Thedford's Black Draught is purely
vegetable, and has been found to regu-
late weak stomachs, aid digestion, re-
lieve indigestion, colo, wind, nausea,
headache, sick stomach, and Similar
symptoms.
II has been in constant use for more
lllan 10 years, and has benefited more
Than million people.
Your druggist sells and recommends
Black Draught. Price only 25c. Get a

Americas, despite the advanced seas
! on, still continues the profitable mar
ket for farmers of Sumter and neigh
boring counties who have surplus
stocks of home-raised meat, wheat and
other products, and these commodities
can be purchased any day from farm
wagons on the streets here, or from
local stores. And the quantity mar
'keted here this year has been far
greater than in any year since ante
bellum days in this, THE Egypt of the
Confederacy."
Hams, as fine as any cured in the
West; savory bacon, wagonloads OF
wheat-Sumter wheat-to be convert
ed into flour at neighboring mills;
corn for sale by thousands of bushels
all this, and more, reflects prosper
ity here in Sumter.
Conditions obtaining last fall, fol-
lowing the European conflict, caused
Sumter county farmers to stop and re-
feet Some of them had meat and
wheat and corn to sell, but not enough
to meet the demand. All of these had
cotton, but for once cotton was a.
commodity well-nigh worthless, as
there was no market for the staple
1t was this condition that put our
farmers upon their mettle They de-
cided to make change.
The result is that this year the meat
supply will be the greatest since the
days proceeding the Civil War, when
Sumter county and southwest Georgia
fed to a great extent, our army at the
front. Prosperous farmers of those
udyS, oNuHiS UlS pidHtdlloHS, pldhteu
grain and raised hogs instead of cot
ton, just as the farmers of today are
doing now; and there was plenty and
to spare. This section of Georgia was
known generally as THE Egypt of the
Confederacy.'
Every barn was filled to the roof;
every smokehouse was piled to the
rafters with home raised meat. Those
were prosperous times in Sumter.
This fall, conditions will be almost
identical with those OF the sixties.
Farmers here will produce more meat
this fall than they can use ups their
farms. Sumter produced so MUCK
wheat this summer that the purchase

Novel ideas are being advanced
in connection with the proposed re-
organization of the South Michigan
Baseball League for 1916. One plan
calls for $1,000 appropriation from
each city represented, together with
the assurance that at least 1,100
season tickets at five dollars each will
be sold before the club signs its play
ers for the season. In return the club
agrees to play free baseball every day
in the week except Saturdays and Sun

There are problems in all kinds OF
sports. The baseball magnates are al
ways ON the alert to increase attend
ance at their parks while the college
football executives are constantly wor-

Harvard stadium was built in 1908, il
was expected that the vast horseshoe
would equal all seating demands fol-
years to come. In just twelve years

where there is talk of shifting the an
