RICHMOND TEAM
HOLDS OLD men
FOR rs BERTHS

With the opening of the spring seas
on but matter of several weeks in
the offing members Of the local base
ball colony as well as local diamond
lights are beginning to consider just
what is "on' deck" in the baseball
world of Richmond.
While no definite date for the OPEN
representative city club or the semi
representative city club or teh semi
pro or amateur leagues has been set
it's safe proportion to stake money
against tobacco tags that Richmond
followers of the national game will be
Teasing on the pastime by the middle
Of next month.
Season Opens in April.
From present indications the Rich
mond semi-pro club will get under way
with practise work the latter part of
this or the first of next month. Open
ings OF the two local leagues-the S.
A. l.. or Industrial, possibly both, and
the Commercial will be later.
With the organization of the strict
ly local talent club in Richmond last
fall DISQUALIFICATION losing prop
osition in Richmond--took big boost
And with the same plan being worked
again this year interest in the game is
more pronounced than for many
seasons.
Under plans of the Richmond base
ball club, Field Captain Everett Sulli-
van will be instructed to gather his
recruits at Athletic park along the lat
ter part of this month. The men are
ready right now to don the spiked
shoes and flannels.
Old Faces Remain.
While bit early to make any def
mite forecasts as the probable lineup
of the Quaker team for the season, it
is safe bet that number of the
boys who late last fall starred on the
local semipro club will again be in
harness this year.
And among this bunch Of prospec-
tives are such local men as Vint
Cooney, Rus Hawekotte, Pete Miner,
Bill Raney. Frank w. Williams, Billy
Niebubr. Cluude knight, Roy Schattel,
Toad Kelly, Runt Stanley, Johnny
Holmes. Alva Harter, Joe Bulla and
others. Captain Sullivan himself will
be with the squad as a first string
catcher. Hawekotte and MINER are
pitchers well known to the Wayne
county bugdom. Cooney, Schattel.
Holmes and Buila are fielders. Prac-
tically every one of this squad of like
lies played with the Quaker team at
some time or other last season.

Gentle Rubbing
Helps VaricOse Veins

rubbing the swollen veins nightly for
about two minutes with gentle up
ward stroke brings benefit to sufferers
and is mighty good advice, says an
authority.
After the rubbing, which should al
ways be toward the heart. because the
blood in the veins flows that way, ap-
ply Emerald Oil (full strength with
brush or hand.
Try this simple home treatment for
a few days and improvement will be
noticed, then continue until veins are
reduced to normal. 1t is very concen-
trated and penetrating and can be OBJ
tanned at any modern drug store. 1t is
so powerful that it also reduces goitre
and wens. Leo H. Fihe has Emerald
Oil in the original bottle, and will be
glad to supply it.-Adv.

CANCEL EM-ROE DATE.

Inability of the Richmond and Ind
annapolis arrangements to get together
on the proposition of terms has caused
the cancellation of the Quaker-Emroe
game tentatively scheduled for March
20. The Emroes wanted more money
than the local management would
offer. With the cancellation of the
Emroe and Columbus games the Rich
mond Quakers at present have but
two games listed. Both of these are
away from home: Millville tomorrow
night and Christ Church, of Cincinnati,
week from Saturday.

The state completed its case
today in the trial of Arthur
Young, charged with cashing
fraudulent Industrial insurance
warrants.
Attorney O'Brien insisted that
Frank Stone, who testified yes
terday for the state that Young
had cashed the warrants, know
ing they were fraudulent, be
brought back from Olympia to-
day for cross-examination.
Court was adjourned and a
hurry-up call sent to Olympia for
Stone. He was started from the
capital in an automobile.
1t is thought the defense will
be brief with its case, using only
six or seven witnesses.
Young will be his own chief
witness. He will attempt to refute
the direct testimony against him

Stoever demanded that Martin

To Place
Blame


Suit was filed today by
Prosecutor REMAIN against
the Pacific Coast Steamship
Go. to test the legality Of Sec
tons i'm the prohibition law
regarding the shipment of in
toxicating liquor.
The suits are the outgrowth of
the seizure last night of more
than 81 ,000 worth of liquor col-
signed to the Gill Drugg Co. of
South Tacoma which arrived on
the steamer Governor from san
Francisco.
The liquor arrived from Cali
fornia on the steamer Governor
and was marked Seeds"
"Section 8 of the law specifi-
-cally states" said Remain today,
that it is unlawful for any trans
portation company to haul any
liquor into the state without an
auditors permit fixed in a con-
spicuous place on each parcel.
Section 20 provided that the
label, This package contains in
toxicating liquor be placed on
every parcel" he continued. In
the shipment taken over by the
county officers yesterday both Of
thes sections were disregarded.
This will simply be a test suit
and we believe our understanding
of the law will hold good. George
Gill, who ordered the liquor, took
out two permits with the county
auditor. There Is no limit to the
amount a druggist can order, but
he must have permit for every
box
Rumors reached the court
house this morning that Gill was
figuring on asking for an injunc-
ZION to keep the county from
touching the liquor.
- Sheriff Longmire Immediately
got in communication with the
Eureka dock officials and inform
ed them that the liquor was in his
custody and should not be NOV
ed. He was informed that IL
would be stored until the county
had disposed of the case.
An inventory of the shipment
made today by County Detective
Shaw shows four barrels of whis.
