WHAT HURT
GRAND OLD GAME

New York. Jan. Sat the present time
there are close to 100000 golf and tennis
players in the United States. Five years
ago there were less than 100000 Those
extra 100000 lave been drawn, for the
most part. from among the men used to
find their only recreating in watching a
ball game.
Very few men enjoy watching an ath-
letic contest as much as they enjoy being
one of the participants in that contest.
Professional baseball afforded only a
chance of witnessing the game. Golf and
tennis give men a chance to play 1t them
selves: 1t gives them the excitement OF
contest and brings them out into the open
with the added benefit of exercise.
OF course, the millions Of men who now
play tennis and golf. and those who own
autos and spend most OF their time chug-
ging around the country. haven't deserted
baseball absolutely. Tho love for the
game still burns in their hearts. but the
flame is feeble and fiickering. Occasion
ally they go to the game-but occasion
ally only. In the other years they used
TO go on an average of twenty-five times
yearly. Now they go but four or five
times in a season.

HARVARD BOXERS
USE 12-OUNCE GLOVES

Boston. January SIT has been an
nounced that twelve-ounce gloves will
be used by Harvard student boxers in
stead of the five-ounce gloves worn in
the prize ring. so that hard blows will
not dishgure the contestants. There
has been a revival of the sport at Har-
ward. and hundreds of students have
taken II up.
Harvard has been asked to enter
some of its boxers in amateur contests
to be held in New York and Boston.
but the college has not sanctioned such
course. The students are taking up
the sport as an exercise. and they have
no desire to become gladiators or prize
winners.
More men are wanted who weigh
under 1876 pounds and over 10 pounds"
says the Crimson. "Light-weight men
should remember that they will be
matched only with partners of their
own weight. and therefore will not be
at all handicapped In the tourna-
ments"

San Francisco. Jan. S-Have Pacific
Coast League magnates entered into a
secret agreement not to treat with con-

Walter MeCredie. Portland manager,

out this theory.

No, I would not" replied Mack 'T

McCredie then shut up like a clam and
would volunteer no further remarks on
the mysterious certain agreement"
He did add. however. that he would
not have anything to do with any of the

Midnight Bowling League
Latest Fad for Pin Spillers

Bowling sure has taken a death grip
on the local sporting world. Washing
ton can boast of It's Sunrise League, and
its noon-hour circuits, but II was up to
Jack Fones, owner Of the Brunswick
Club. to put over the real sensation In
this line by inaugurating a Midnight
League.
When the old bell tolls off the hour of
IL every bowling alley and billiard par
lor in this city closes their doors for
eight hours. or more. but 1t Is not SO
with the Brunswick Club. As the new
day creeps In with its wee small hours
things begin to hum at Fones' place at
Sixth and G streets northwest.
Shortly after the midnight hour the pin
settlers at the Brunswick Club get down
to real action as the five alleys which
until the old day breaks In the East.
Throughout the day and during the night
the Brunswick alleys are going at
good clip. but Il is the midnight session
which Is the rush hours, and at this
period II Is often hard TO obtain an alley.
John p. c'Jack'D Zones. the genial
manager of the Brunswick Club, is
known to every bowler in Washington,
and II Is Zones who Is responsible for
the success Of the midnight bowlers.
Many followers Of the pin-spilling game
woh work late hours and must have their
exercise at this hour OF the morning
compose the league which rolls here after
midnight
Besides this thriving midnight business
the Brunswick Club has two well-organ-
lied leagues rolling each night, and since
the alleys have recently been put in tip
top shape, another league is making ar

The Brunswick Club Is now going into
its fourteenth year of existence. and Jack

ST. LOUIS HAS HOPES
OF A CHAMPIONSHIP
James W. Garneau Will Do All He
Can to Give Mound City a
Pennant Winner.

Another capitalist has broken into base
ball with the idea that a winning team
can be secured merely by the outlay of
lot of cash. Last winter Col Rupert
and Capt. Huston purchased the New
York Highlanders. and they believed that
ball goods they desired from a manager
down to the bat boy. 1t did not take
them long to become disillusioned.
They have spent money freely, and
they must still do so before they can put
together a first-class combination. As
Damon Runyon. a New York writer. re-
marked in commenting upon Comiskey's s
large expenditure for stars, there is one
thing that Rupert and Huston cannot
purchase, That is. team spirit. Such
thing must come automatically and is not
purchaseabIe at any price. AS an ingre-
dent to success on the diamond II is in
dispensable.
James w. Garneau, one OF the purchas-
ers of the st. Louis Americans, is just
about to cut his eye teeth In the national
game. Mr.. Garneau is a wealthy pork
packer and former president OF the st.
Ec-iis Merchants Exchange. He has
started in with the ambition of giving st.
Louis the best possible in the line Of
baseball goods. In speaking of the club,
Mr.. GaTneaI said:
I'm going to give st. Louis a winning
club I don't care what II costs. The
Browns are going to mean something In
baseball"
st. Louis has not had a baseball cham
pionship since 1883. That's a long, long
time to wait, and yet the Mound City
fans have stood loyaly by the national
game. New ownersk!p. a new manager,
new players and new methods may de-
velop the mUch-needed spirit The fans
there have the pennant fever already.

Glass of Hot Water
Before Breakfast
a Splendid Habit
Open sluices of the system each
morning and wash away the
poisonous, stagnant matter.

Those of US who are accustomed to
feel dull and heavy when we arise;
splitting headache, stuffy from cold,
foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stom-
ach, lame back, can, instead both look
and feel as fresh as a daisy always by
washing the poisons and toxins from
the body with phosphated hot water
each morning.
We should drink, before breakfast,
a glass of real hot water with q tea
spoonful of limestone phosphate in 1t
to flush from the stomach, liver, kid
neys and ten yards of bowels the pre-
vious days indigestible waste, sour
bile and poisonous toxins; thus cleans
ing, sweetening and purifying the en-
tire alimentary tract before putting
more food into the stomach.
The action of limestone phosphate
and hot water on an empty stomach
is wonderfully invigorating. t cleans
out all the sour lamentations, gases,
waste and acidity and gives one
splendid appetite for breakfast and it
is said to be but a little while until the
roses begin to appear in the cheeks.
A quarter pound of limestone phos-
phate will cost very little at the drug
who is bothered with biliousness, con-
stipation, stomach trouble or rheuma-
tis1n a real enthusiast on the subject
of internal sanitation. Try it and you
are assured that you will look better
and feel better in every way shortly

MAY COMPROMISE
Indication Miners and Opera
tors May Get Together.
VIII Recognize Union, but Still
Maintain Open Shop.

New York. April 2S.-Under in
structions if possible to reach a salts
tory agreement before May ., miners
and mine operators composing sub
committee of the joint conference
committee met here again today to en-
deavor to adjust the differences over
the miners demand for recognition of
the union, an eight hour day and a
20 per cent increase in wages.
Previous sessions of the sub-com-
mittee failed to evolve an agreement
chiefly because the operators refused
to install the CHECK off, system. 1t
is now stated that as the leaders of the
miners, headed by John p. White.
president of the United Mine Workers
of America, have consented to waive
this point, the subcommittee is dis
posed to reach an agreement along
these lines:
Recognition of the union by the
signing of contracts with representa-
tives of the national body, but without
the closed shop or CHECK OFF, sys-
tenn.
An eight hour day with pay sor nine
hours.
An increase of not less than per
cent in wages.
A four year contract for which the
! operators have contended.

SWISS INDIGNANT
More German AerOplanes APP
pear Over Switzerland.
s'Time Has Come to Demand
More Than Apologies"

Berne. April 2S.-The flight of a
German aeroplane over Swiss terri
tory in the region of Porentruy yester-
day morning. occurring so soon after
a previous similar flight over the same
territory, has provoked the strongest
indignation in Switzerland This is re-
Elected in all sections of the press.
The semi -officIal Bund says the time
has come to demand from Germany
something more than expressions of
regret.
The Journal de Geneva points out
that this is the thirteenth incident of
the kind and that the German minis
ter gave the most solemn assurance
last August that there would be no
further violation and added that Ger
man aviators were ordered to keep
three miles from the Swiss frontier
Raids More Frequent
Yet the raids have been even more
frequent since then than before The
newspaper describes the flight over
Switzerland as an insulting disregard
of federal authority. The previous
flight over Portentruy alluded to, took
place on March 1, when two aero
planes dropped five bombs on that
town, causing some damage to prop
erty. Later it was stated that the Ger
man government apologized for the
attack.
