MORE MEN THAN WOMEN
HAVE APPENDICITIS

Surgeons state men are slightly more
subject to appendicitis than women.
New Ulm people should know that few
doses of simple buckthorn bark, glycerine,
etc., as mixed in Adler-i-ka, often re-
lieve or prevent appendicitis. This
mixture removes such surprising foul
matter that ONE SPOONFUL relieves
almost ANY CASE constipation, sour
stomach or gas. The INSTANT, easy
action of Adler-i-ka is surprising. adv. 6

RASEBALLa'S BIRTH
AGAIN IN DISPUTE.

New York, July 1.-THE recent
celebration at Cooperstown, N. Y, as
the scene Of the "Birth Of Baseball
has again reopened the controversy
regarding just when and where base
ball was first played as an organized
sport with rules and fixed places for
the different members of the teams
when in the field. Some close stu
dents of the early history of the game
still express doubt regarding the
statement that either nine or eleven
players first took the field at Coop
erstown
While some uncertainty may exist
as to whether such a lineup was
actually used in the early play at
Cooperstown, there appears to be lit
tie doubt that Cooperstown man
evolved the idea Of placing the players
in practically the positions they oc-
cupy in the game today. Credit is
given to Abner Doubleday by no less
an authority than the late Albert G.
Spalding, who wrote in his report upon
the subject:
ain the days when Abner Double.
day attended school at Cooperstown
(1S39) it was common thing for
two dozen or more schoolboys to join
in game Of ball. Doubtless, as m
my later experiences, collisions be-
tween the players in attempting to
catch the batted ball were frequent,
and injury due to this cause, or to the
practice of putting out the runner by
hitting him with the ball, often oc-
cured
81 can we'll understand how the o.
derby mind of the embryo West
Pointer would devise a scheme for
limiting the contestants on each side
and alloting them to field positions,
each with a certain amount of terri
tory; also substituting the existing
method of putting out the base runner
for the old one of plugging him
with the ball.
"True, it appears from the state
ment that Doubleday provided for
II men on a side instead of nine,
stationing the two extra men between
first and second and third bases, but
this is minor detail, and, indeed, |
have played, and doubtless other old
players have, repeatedly with II on a
side, placed almost identically in the
manner indicated by Doubleday's dia-
gram, although it is true that we so
played after the number on each side
had been fixed at nine. simply to adj
nit to the game an additional number

of business by time, ridicule and the

A few go so far as to say "The boys

since snow rarely flies over the bulk
of French territory. The most auda-

It will require an appropriation by the

SHIPPING BILL
To Be PASSED
At THIS Term
Determination of Democrats
to Enact Measure Meets
Popular Approval.
Especial CORRESPONDENCE. J


| Washington, July 1.-THE determi-
nation of the Democrats of the senate
| to pass the administration shipping
bill this session is meeting with over
whelming popular approval. This bill
will at once create a great merchant
marine for carrying American goods
to all parts of the world, and thereby
greatly promote our foreign trade.
Heretofore, the expectation of
American goods has been almost en-
tjrely dependent on the great mer-
chant marines of Great Britain and
Germany, and, CT course, those two
great commercial countries always
give the products of their own coun-
tries the benefit Of their best service,
so American trade has been at a great
disadvantage for lack Of merchant
marine.
This bill provides for the creation
Of a company with S5O,000,00O capital
to be furnished partly by the govern
ment and partly by private capitalists,
and these ships are to be auxiliaries of
the navy, but in times Of peace they
are to be used for merchant shipping
The bill is heartily supported by
both houses of congress, except those
senators and representatives who are
tools of the shipping trust.
The Democratic leaders have de-
creed that this bill must become a
law before congress adjourns, as the
growing industries of the country de
mands.
Republican Campaign Falls Flat.
Since those few effervescent bub-
bles which followed the Republican
nomination have disappeared the coun-
try has almost forgotten who the Re
publicans and Bull Moose nominated
for president. Every day brings added
proof that the country is more than
satisfied with that great, safe and
sane statesman in the white house, and
that it intends to engage his services
for four more years.
There was very significant de-
velopment at the Chicago Republican
convention, which a good many have
overlooked. When the Republicans
have hopes Of winning victory, there
is not only scramble for the tenn
porary craftsmanship of the conven-
ton, but a scramble for the perna-
nent Craftsmanship, too. These two
offices are high honors and the in
cumbents are the two keynoters of the
convention This year, however, The
Republicans did not have enough
issues for one keynoter much less for
two, and SO instead Of electing tenn
porary and permanent chairman, thus
honoring two Of it's big leaders, they
made poor old Senator Harding of
Ohio fill both bills as there was no
scramble for chairmanships this year,
for the scramblers do not like the
idea of trying to make a funeral ser
mon" sound like pattle cry, and SO
they allowed the double honor to de-
volve on Senator Harding, who was
both temporary and permanent chair
man. Some of the reports said he
fell flat, and others said he blew up,
which is saying the same thing in a
different way.
