Relief.

Once upon Il time Edwin Putnam
who lives in the quiet pretty hamlet of
Wendell Depot, Mass, climbed mp into
o loft to get some building material.
just as many another man living in the
country must often do. Suddenly he
slipped and fell. Ten feet below was a
pile of wood, knotted and gnarled. He
was injured painfully in the back, he
was coyerd with bruises, and was sore
from head to foot.
The next day he bought bottle of
Sloan's Liniment which had been re
commended TO him. Within a very few
hours the soreness had vanished and
the lameness had disappeared. He
was an active man once more.
Sloan's Liniment can he obtained at

Give BAN CREDIT
A. L. President Entirely Re-
spOnsibIe for Tight Race.
Speaker Deal Prevented Rum
away by the Red SOx.
BY FRANK G. MENKE.

New York, Sept. 30.-Ban Johnson
made possible the great American
league bunting of 1916. If it hadn't
been for his shrewdness, added to his
dictatorial power, the affair would
have been a walkaway for the Red
Sox.
Remember the comment that was
created in the springtime when Ban
engineered the deal that sent Iris
speaker to the Indians? Gobs and
right up and remarked that Ban was
'jockeying'' the race; that he was
weakening the Red Sox and not doing
any real good for the then hopeless
appearing Indians. But, the hoi pol
loi was wrong. Bans move ultimately
generated more thrillers than have
skidded along basebalIs spinal col
umns for a very extensive period.
If Ban had baked on that Speaker
deal the Red Sox, assisted by the ter
rifle clouting of the said Tristan,
would have cinched the flag along
about August 1. Iris. alone and I'M
aided is good for at least ten vic
tories in normal season. Battling
under the Red Sox standard this year
he would have turned probably a doz-
en- defeats into triumphs. And the
race 1ouldn't have been dignified by
such a man after mid-season.
No one ever made any special yowls
concerning the tipiness of the Phillies'
ball yard until the Pills became affi-
lated with the pennant chasing fever.
And now some magnates whose clubs
are shifting the dust from the heels
of the Phlying Phillies. are threaten
ing to lodge protests against it.
1t is small time stuff-something
beneath the dignity of really big man
to complain now about that park.
1t is small, yes, but no smaller now
than it was in the days when the pills
were consistent tailenders. If it is
such a distinct advantage for the
Quakers now, why wasn't it so in other
years?

final AVERAGES
Forty-Two w. L. Players Bat
800 and Better This Year.
Denver Players Cop Individual
HonOrs of the League.

The final Western league averages,
compiled by Irwin NJ. Howe, official
league statistician, show conclusively,
among other things. that superior
pitching alone was responsible for the
championship that the Omaha team
now holds. The Rourke flag coppers
finished the season in seventh place in
club fielding and in third place in club
batting. but four of their pitchers nm
ished with a per cent of better than
800 and all better than 800, and to
their mound men they undoubtedly
owe more than to any other individual
men.
In individual playing, Butcher, of
Denver, COPIED the greatest and most
highly priced honor by heading the
batting average column with a per
cent of 1877. Butcher also led the
league in total bases and was third in
runs scored. Dyer, another Denver
player, led the league in home runs
with 16, and Shields, of the same
team, took the stolen base glory all
to himself with 81 pliers in the 1852
games he participated in.
Many 800 Hitters.
Manager Krug, of Omaha led the
league in sacrifice hits with 81. Forty
two players finished the season with
batting averages above the 900 mark.
but among them were only three To-
pekans. DEBATE led the Topeka club
in batting with an average of .324
Cochran was the home run king of
the Savage tribe, his total for the sea-
son being g. Also Cochran led the
locals in stolen bases with rs. and

RED SOx CERTAIN
Chicago Has One Chance in
Million to Win A. L. Flag.
National League Race as Tight
as Ever Today.

Chicago, ILL.,. Sept. 30.-The Boston
Americans today appeared reasonably
sure of being a contender in the world
series, but in the National league the
outcome was just as uncertain as it
has been for several days Brooklyn
and Philadelphia being practically in
tie for first place. Brooklyn has the
lead by a technical half game altho in
the percentage column, Philadelphia
by reason of having played fewer
games, appears only a small fraction
behind, the standing being Brooklyn
sos, and Philadelphia sos.
Boston practically is out of the race.
Brooklyn and Philadelphia have a
double header in prospect today and
then New York goes to Brooklyn for
four games while Philadelphia and
Boston are playing a six-game series.
Chicago About Out.
The Boston Americans was the only
team in either league which escaped
the rain storm Friday and the result
put them one game nearer the cham
pionship. In order to win the Amer
lean league pennant, Chicago must
take the four remaining games with
Cleveland and Boston must lose her
four games still on the schedule, one
with New York and three with Phil
adelphia.
Detroit has been eliminated from
the pennant contest. President 3. 3.
Johnson, of the American league, has
ruled that clubs may play off post
poned games as late as next Wednes-
day altho the schedule in the west ends
officially tomorrow.

HIGGINS WILL TWlRL
Ideals Have Real Indian to Play in
Game With Newton.

The sudden departure of Pitcher
O'Byrne from Topeka this week left
the Ideal Bakery team with only
"Sapho" Saffel to oppose the Newton
Santa Fe team in the game for the
amateur championship of Kansas to-
morrow afternoon at Savage park, but
Manager kephart announced today
that he had procured the assistance of
Squire Higgins and that the classy
young Oakland mound artist would
take the rubber at the beginning of
the game.
The Bakers also have taken on a
Haskell Indian player, Willie Little
bird, to play in the outfield and with
the added strength these new men will
give, the locals are pretty confident of
victory. The Newton team will arrive
tomorrow morning and the game will
be called promptly at 2:3O. Special
street cars will be run from Eighth
street and Kansas avenue to the park.

CORNELL WILL MISS HER
OLD STARS THIS SEASON

You hear lot about the prob
lem that confronts Percy Haughton
at Harvard, with Eddie Mahan and
other Crimson football stars gone.
What of the problem that confronts
AL Sharpe at Cornell?
Cornell had the best eleven in
the east last year. There was no
argument about that. The Itha-
cans did not lose a game and de-
feated Harvard decisively.
Up above Cayuga's waters they
had a great backfield star, who was
Mahin's only rival for individual
honors, named Charley Barrett.
Barrett is lost to Cornell. The Itha-
cans will miss him fully as much
as Harvard does Mahan.
Two other stars of the Cornell
eleven were Shelton, the fleet end.
and Cool, the giant center. Both
men have graduated.
