The exhibition game against Pitts
burgh was something OF farce. Fans
were peeved because Eddie Collins
was not with the Sox, as most of
them had hiked out in the rain for a
sight of the peerless second baseman.
Sox won, 9 to 4, in eight innings.
Davis pitched fine ball against the
National leaguers, though his support
did it's best to throw him down. He
held the Pirates to four hits for seven
innings, then eased off and allowed
three runs with the aid of Buck Wea-
yer. Rowland also has a midget
catcher named Shook with him on
this trip. The recruit is about the
size Schalk was when he came to the

can still stand a lot of seasoning.

Schultz, secured from Brooklyn, is
also due for trial. His arm is strong
enough to allow of his pastiming at
second base. In that event Heinie
Zimmerman will go back to his old
station at third. Schultz was used
yesterday in the exhibition game at
McHenry and cracked three hits.
An outfieId recruit and a young
catcher are also due for tryouts and
will be thoroughly worked over dur
ing the battles with the four eastern
teams.
Phil Douglas, a White Sock before
he became a Red and Dodger, has
also been purchased by the Cubs and
will have a share in the pitching for
the remainder of the season.
Frank Chance, secure in his orange
groves in California, says Bresnahan
is using poor judgment in using the
Cub pitchers. The former P. L.
opines Roger feels he is either out
of the race or that the Harp just
doesn't know how to work the grape
viners. This verdict is elected by the
way Bresnahan has left some fellows
in lately when they were being
soundly bumped.
If Chance had been in touch with
National league baseball this season
his opinion might carry some weight.
In all his years in baseball Chance
never saw anything like this years
crop, taking the league as a whole.
He overlooks the fact that when he
was winning pennants he was. pro-
vided with team already developed.
He had no rebuilding to do until he
went to New York, and what hap
pened there is history.
This criticism by Chance isn't need

Feudists Re-enact Scenes
of Warfare For Movies

Logan, w. Va, July 29.-This peace
full mountain region, now the abode of
law abiding people, has been invaded
by a moving picture company from
Philadelphia, who to-day began the
reproduction of the feudal scenes en-
acted during the famous Hatfield
Mccoy feud OF several decades ago.
The, pictures, which are to show the
principal events of the bloody family
war. will be realistic because of the
fact that the surviving members of the
clans who We're arrayed against one
another will again take the leading
parts in the mock fights, which will be
reproduced in some of the widest sec
tions of this region.
Devil" Anse Hatfield, the most
noted of the feudists, is starring in the
picture play. Although an old man,
Devil" Anse is as spry as the youngest
member of his clan and is doing his
turn with all the zest he displayed in
ambushng members of the Mccoy
clan in by-gone days.
That the pictures may be authentic
and as nearly as possible depict the
fights which resulted from the ancient
grudge between the families, each
member of the clans who survived the
old days will re-enact the part he
played in actual life.

To Put On Flesh
And Increase Weight
A Physicians Advice

Most thin people eat from four to six
pounds of good solid fat-making food
every day and still do not increase in
weight one ounce, while on the other
hand many of the plump, chunky folks
eat very lightly and keep gaining all
the time. It's all bosh to say that this
is the nature of the individual. 1t isn't
Natures way at all.
Thin folks stay thin because their
powers of assimilation are defective.
They absorb just enough of the food
they eat to maintain life and SEM
blance, of health and strength. LStuff1ng
won't make them gain a single stay
there" pound. All the producing ele-
mcnts of their food just stay in the in
testines until they pass from the BODY
as waste What such people need Is
something that will prepare these fatty
fo1d elements so that their blood can
absorb them and deposit them all about
the body-somcthin too, that will null
tiply their red blood corpuscles and in
crease their bloods carrying power.
For such a condition l always recon-
mend eating Sargol tablet with every
meal. Sargol is not. as some believe a
patented drug, bat Is a scientific com
bination of six OF the most effective
known to chemistry. It is. absolutely
a single tablet eaten with each meal

weight of a thin man or woman from
three to Ave pounds week. SarCol

tive guarantee of weight increase or

finds to be 67,000,000 square kilo-
meters, with an aggregate population
of S00,000,000. Germany and her
allies on the other hand have terri
tory of 100000 square kilometers
and a population of $50, 200, 900 per-
sons.
The daily cost of the war to the ten
nations now taking part he places at
169, 100000 marks ($42,250,O00) and
60,000,000 marks .($42,250, ,00O), and
he estimates that up to the first of
April the total cost of the war was
40, 900, 900, 900 marks ($1 1000, ,00O,00O)
Italy again excepted, he placed the an
nual cost of such a war at
sis, 900, 900, 900.
1t would take so, 900, 900 of the huge
1,000-mark banknotes to pay this cost,

of the other, would make a pile
10000 feet, almost four miles, in

weigh 24,000.000 Kilograms (52,912,S 500
pounds), whereas the entire gold nro-
duction of the entire world during the
past 800 years has amounted to but

The daily war costs for the German
empire he places at 33,000,000 marks
(sS,250,O00) and only 40 days of this
conflict cost as much as the whole
FrancoPrussian war of 1901. The
cost to England, exclusive of the colo
MES. is about the same, and three
months of this war cost Great Britain
as much as the Boer war. lasting two
years and seven months. France
spends a little more daily.

River Murray Will Be
Harnessed For Better Use

| Adelaide, South Australia, July %.
Press.) - What is hailed as inaugur-
ating new and important era in the
industrial development of the Austria
liam Comm onwealth was the laying at
Blanchetown on the river Murray,
June 5, of the foundation stone of the
first lock of a great system of locks
and piers, which will harness this
great waterway to the better use of
the Australian people. The system,
together with the water storages at
Lake Victoria and Cumberoona, will
provide for irrigation on a huge scale
as we'll as the use ofthe Murray water
way for trade and commerce.
What the Nile is to Egypt, and the
Mississippi is to the United States the
Murray is to Australia. The Murray
river system is one of the longest nav
igable rivers in the world, at times for
more than 5000 miles.
For something like half a century
the control OF its waters has been a
vexed question in the politics of the
three States most vitality concerned
New South Wales, Victoria and South
Australia-and because successive
governments have been unable to
agree upon a basis of settlement of
! riparian rights the potential wealth of
the river has been allowed to pour it,
self unchecked into the sea-a gigan-
tic waste in a continent where the
chief desideratuln is water. The cere-
monies at Blanchetown therefore sig
nalized an historical event. When
carried to completion, the project will
| open up about / 800 900 acres for cul-
tivation, and it is estimated, will bring
in an additional population of from
500, 900 to 900 persons.
| The cost will be about S21, 900, 900.
Some idea of the extent of the scheme
may be gathered from the fact that in
South Australia, the Lake Victoria
RESERVOIR can be made to store 22,-
900 900, 900 cubic feet of water.

The open hearth department of the

ming 100 per cent. according to a
statement to-day by Austin D. Mix
sell. vice president.
This means that the Is furnaces are
producing $4,000 tons of ingots a
month. Eight of the II open hearth
furnaces of the Lehigh plant are work
ing, and the blast furnace depart
ments capacity will shortly be in
creased by the blowing-in of one of the

1t Is said that the steel company has
received assurances that it will obtain
the contract to furnish 1000 tons of
steel rail for the New York city sub
ways. 1t will take about eight
months to fill this order.
The steel company officials are
much encouraged over the sudden
strength of the iron and steel market,
and still further increase is looked
for.

FRENCH PRESIDENT
ALWAYS HAS DOUBLE
Accompanies Him Everywhere
and Is Often Mistaken For
Executive

Paris, July 2S. - Correspondence
Of The Associated Press) President
Poincare has not so many doubles as
has ex-President Fallieres, but he has
one that is more often taken for him
His position, however, is more ex-
posed, for he is the presidents own
secretary, Felix Decor. He has the
same height as the president, his hair
is almost as thin and he wears beard
pointed in the same style.
Those who are granted an audience
by the president are Obliged first to
go through the apartments of the
military staff, then the office of the
civilian secretary, before reaching the
president apartments. The door
keeper that introduces them an
nounces their names in each room
they pass through, a formality that
disturbs those who are received for
the first. time, and by the time they
arrive in a quiet room not filled with
military uniforms they are relieved at
the sight of man in civilian dress,
behind a desk covered with documents
and whom they easily mistake for the
president If they have never been pre-
sented before.
Corrects Error
M OnSleur Decor mas acquired d
most gracious knack of correcting
their error and putting them at their
ease.
When the president makes an off,
cial visit to some public institution or
inaugurates an exposition or some
thing of that sort, he generally goes
in a motor car with General Duparge.
His civilian secretary, Monsieur Decori
follows with another military attache
Of the Elysee, in another car.
The ceremonial requires that the
civilian secretary's car shall pass that
of the president two hundred yards
before the arrival so as to be present
when the president appears before the
authorities delegated to receive him.
Those who are not familiar with this
ceremonial inevitably mistake the first
car for that of the president and re-
ceive the secretary with presidential
honors.
The secretary has adopted stereo-
typed form for use in reply to the off,
cial greetings:
