Organized base ball men do not take
this movement seriously. 1t IS argued
that it would cost a lot of money to
establish such leagues, and as these
new circuits intended to conflict
with some o! the clubs in organized
base ball most of them will be losing
ventures I'm the outset. 1t is Sus-
pected that the Feds are pulling an
other grand bluff for the purpose of
feeling out the minor league club
owners.
The demands of the Federal League
in its suit against organized base ball
have been reduced to plea to have the
court enjoin the defendants from tam
pering with the Federal League play
ers. In other words the Feds seem to
want Judge Lands to enjoin organized
base ball from bringing suits to re-
cover players who have jumped their
contracts. There is no longer desire
to dissolve the national commission or
to have all contracts of organized base
ball declared void. Just what the Feds
will gain if the decision favors them
is not clear. Organized base ball does
not believe it can be epjoined from
bringing suits in state courts to stop
players who are the property of clubs
in the organization from jumping their
agreements, and as this Is said to be
all the plaintiffs ask for in the suit
there is some speculation as to what
the decision will be.

Western defeated Business decisiyely
yesterday and 1t did so without one OF

might have had good excuse in tho

COFFEE WHIPS UP

RESERVE ENERGY
Investigators Declare Continued Use Of
Coffee Works Disaster to Ner-
vOus System.

Does the daily use OF coffee as a
leverage, continued for series Of
years, do harm?"
Yes says DR.. W. A. Evans In the
Chicago Tribune. "a horse cannot be
whipped daily for years without being
harmed. y man cannot be nagged
continuously for years without being
harmed. Tho very fact that when
fatigue is slowing down muscles and
brain cells. coffee will whip them on.
and that under the stimulus of coffee
the working capacity is unduly OK
the process is kept up for series of
years
Fatigue is n danger signal" adds
another investigator. 1T means that
tho weary body should Immediately
seek rest. Caffeine in any form puts
n mask on this signal. and temporarily
conceals 1t by whipping up the reserve
forces and then consuming them.
Fatigue Is like n red light that
calls attention to n ditch In the dark
Nobody with common sense would as
sumo for n minute that by putting out
the light the ditch would be removed.
Yet that is exactly what weary people
do when they disguise their WEAKNESS
for an hour by resorting to stimu-
lants."
