Coming of a New Era

Already many far-seeing men are
looking ahead to conditions after
the war. Great changes are to come
for the whole world. and for the
better. Some of the changes are set
forth very clearly and distinctly
by Henry Clews of New York, who
predicts the coming of new era
destined to be the brightest the
world has ever seen" He says:
THE world is likely to think
more soberly and sanely than it
has done for several generations.
Much of the radiealism, eXtrava-
gance, waste and political none
sense which have been sfalsely pa
raded as progress, and which have
permeated the life of every country,
will be swept away and followed by
new and saner efforts. Already
economy and efficiency have re-
ceived an immense stimulus. The
United States, Great Britain, France
and other countries are each max
ing strenuous efforts to secure the
best methods of industry, methods
alike satisfactory to capital and la
Dor. Science and research are doing
their utmost to discover better
ways and new resources with dis
tinct success.
"a Better class of men is likely to
be called into public life, as is a re-
suit of all great crises. In our own
case the need of this is particularly
strong, the country having suffered
much from the politicians whose
clief aims were to hold their jobs
bSsfostering prejudice and class in
: terest ratlter than devoting them
selves to public welfare and real
craftsmanship. This war will I'M
doubtedly force a number of men
out of private life into public no.
tice. and not few will obey the
coming call to serve the country in
time of peace as well as war. Incl
dentally, therefore, we may hope
for better politics than for the last
decade at least. For years we have
been surfeited with all classes OF
isms and vagaries, which at times
seriously threatened the stability
of our entire economic and socia
fabric. Not few able thinkers
feared that the tide Of radicalisn
was irresistibly sweeping us on tt
the brink of violent social and po
litical revolution. Democrac!

Cholera Morbus

This is a very painful and danger
Gus disease. In almost every neigh
borhOod someone has died from it
before medicine could be obtained
or physician summoned. The
right way is to have bottle of
Chamberlain's Collie and Diarrhoea
Remedy in the house so as to be
prepared for it. Mrs. Charles En-
yeart, Huntington, Ind, writes:
During the summer of 1911 two OF
my children were taken sick with
cholera morbus. | used Chamber
lain's Collie and Diarrhoea Remedy
and it gave them immediate relief"

seemed adrift on the sea of doubt
Now that the war has reached
our own shores, it has sObered men
as nothing else could have done.
Thought has been running deep
and strong. Shallow theories are
being brushed aside by the sterner
and more pressing perils of war: a
new Set of problems and necessities
have intruded themselves upon us,
and the world as we see it has al
ready undergone revolutionary
changes. AS yet these have not
worked out their legitimate ends
and it will require years before the
new problems approach solution,
many of the old ones disappearing
forever in the meantime. These are
some of the changes that the war
will surely bring. 1t is a great pri-
rilege to live and have a share in
the making of new vera, in many
respects destined to be the brightest
the world has ever seen"

Sour Stomach

This is mild form of indigestion.
1t is usually brought on by eating
too rapidly or too much, or of food
not suited to your digestive organs.
Ii you will eat slowly, masticate
your food thoroughly, eat but lit
tie meat and none at all for supper,
you will more than likely avoid the
sour stomach without taking any
medicine whatever. When you have
sour stomach take one of Chamber
lain's Tablets to aid digestion.

Western Kansas has undergone
a sensation following the report of
2-months-old talking baby near
Wakeeney. 1t appears that when
one of the family drops a teacup
on the floor, the baby says, You
dropped cup, and the war will
end in July" Milt Warner of Wa
keeney has written the Atchison
Globe that the baby will not talk
except when somebody drops a
piece of chinaware, and so many
visitors have called and prevailed
on the parents to make the baby
talk that now the family is eating
off the table cloth. The father has
requested all visitors hereafter to
bring their own breakable china,
according to Mr. Warner.

soEHLING LOOKS TO
 SUCCESS THIS YEAR
Joe Has Been Traded to the Cleveland
 Outfit.

Joe Boehling the Cleveland south paw, will pass the quarter-century mark today. Joseph halls. from Ole Virginny, and was born in Richmond on March 20, 1892. He had had no previous professional experience when he was hired by Washington in 1912, although he had made somthing of a reputation as an amateur and semi pro twirler. Joe helped to keep the Washington bench warm for about a month in 1912, and pitched one game which he lost, and was then sent to Chattanooga
 After a brief experience in the Ten nessee city he was shipped off to Wor- cester, in the New England circuit, where he did so well that Griffith re- called him. Boehling was the sem sation of the league in 1913, winning seventeen games and losing seven, and he did fairly we'll the following year.
 In 1915 and 1916 his record was not so good. In the middle of last season Griffith swapped Boehling and Danny Moellor to Cleveland for Joe Leonard and Elmer Smith. It is understood that Boehling has an old contract calling for. $5,000 a year which holds good this season.

BASEBALL MORE POPULAR
 IN COLLEGE CIRCLES
Steady Increase in Number of Games
 Scheduled Each Year.

The importance of baseball in the list of college sports is shon- by the steady increaseing numbeS of games scheduled each year by the various college and university teams of the different sections of the country. In no other branch of intercollegiate te competition is so much activity crowd ed into few weeks of play as in the baseball sea son.
 Nor is the play confined to any par ticular section or group of states. as college baseball teams now make long intersectional, or transcontinental trips p1aXin game after game with various varsity hines en route. No better ex- ample of this feature of the sport need he cited than the trip to be made by the Stanford University team this spring. which will bring the California college players as far East as New York.
 The total number of games played by college teams throughout the United States each season runs into thousands although there is no way in whicl. to reach an accurate rec ord in this respect. Some idea of the number of contests scheduled, how ever may be gathered from the fact that more than six hundred games will be played by the leading college teams of the New England and Mid : dle Atlantic States this spring

who was prohibited from appearing in ring in New York state on the ground that he had fled from his native land 10 escape military duty. This drastic action was quickly fol- lowed by the busting of Genck ;--id tho friends of boxing are now bracing theriselves for what they believe will be the final stroke in the killing of the boxing game.
 Small hope is entertained that a ioophole will be left by which even the club membership plan can be put into operation. and as boxers do not enter the ring for glory it will be a long time before the patrons of the sport here will see another glove con- test.
 Among those who are closely iden- tified with boxing the blame for this condition of affairs is laid to the bad judgment of Wenck in putting him self in a position where he could be compromised. Wenck was in the terday, attending to duties as usual, he not having received official notice of his removal He expects the doc ument will arrive shortly and he will have all his belongings packed and ready to move out on that day.
 When asked if he had anything to say about his removal, Wenck re- piled:
 T was appointed because I knew the good and the bad in boxing and I was particularly instructed to weed out tle bad. But just as soon as I attempted to rid boxisg of its very orst element. that element proved strong enough to have me removed" ;"

FEAR BOXING GAME
 DEAD IN NEW YORK
Fraternity Sees End of Sport Follow
 ina the Removal of Wenck.

While there were few expressions of grief by boxing promoters of New York over the removal of Chairman wenck of the state athletic commits ism, yet the summary manner inc sion, yet the summary manner in which he was busted. taken in con- nection witt, the governors reiterated assertion that he would insist on the passage of the bill repeating the Frawley law. sent a chill of apprehen- sion down the spines of everyone in- terested in the business. from club managers to ushers. There is a gen era1 fear that Governor Whitman will jam the Slater repeal measure through the legislature on party lines and that the sport will receive it's quietus before the present session ends.
 What heightens the alarm of the boxing fraternity is the consistent severity of the governors attitude to- ward the sport in all it's branches. The executive gave expression to angry protest over the death of a boxer at Albany especially as to the failure of the ci1o to declare off the other contests after it became known that a boy had been fatally injured.
 Next came the case of Les Darcy.

Manager H. Eugene McCann of the New London club of the Eastern league is at St. Petersburg, Fla, the training camp of the Phils, a team in which Morton F. Plant, owner of New London. is also a stockholder. McCann is there is pick up ball play CTS, if any are vailable. He has al- ready secured Rodes and Gonzales, . couple of Cubans, who will report to him at the close of the Phils' training season. Both are infielders. McCann will probably have Fish, the star catcher with him again this season as the Phillies do not intend to keep him on the staff. These men have been promised to McCann for some time. He has known right along that he would get them if they did not make good up above. McCann also is on the lookout for others and apparently he has secured another.
 McCann hs very much impressed with the playing of Dandy Candy. the big outfelder. trying out with the Morans. and will try to get him for his team this season. MeCann has told Manager Moran that he would not turn Candy away from his park if he was sent there and from present indications it looks as though Mo Cam would have an opportunity to prove his statement. Candy will prob ably cavort in the New London ol.t- field this season. There may be oth- CTS. but McCann nor Moran have said nothing about the others under con- sideration.
