Herr Hohenzollern .
Saws 1000 Trees Into
Logs Since Last Fal!

Amerongen, Holland, March IL
(By the Associated Press.)-Former
Emperor William has completed
saving into logs his thousandth
tree since he took refuge at Count
Won Bentinck's castle here last fall.
From the thousandth tree a few logs
were converted into~souvenirs of the
achievement and marked in red ink
with the inscription: "W12." These
were presented to members of the
Bentinck family and to those who
have assisted the ex-emperor in his
work during the last 10 weeks.
AS he was completing his task
a young countess took a snap-shot
of Herr Hohenzollern and his as
sistants, DR.. Forester and Captain
Won Isemann, together with the
young gardener who adjusts the logs
on the bench for the ex-ruler to
saw them. The picture included the
former empress. who was reading a
newspaper nearby.
Expert sawyers of the neighbor-
hood compute the value of the wages
Herr Hohenzollern would have
earned if he had been paid the trade
union rate at about $50 for the whole
period, or an average of 50 cents a
working day, which usually consists
of three hours.

cream of the local cage artists en-
tered in the City basket ball tourna-
ment, four hot games are expected

mated when the N. w. Naken flippers

needed before the National bank
crew will be able to dispose of the
Central Furniture quintet.

Local Recreation
Director Invited to
AttendN. B. F. Meeting

Recreation Director J. ]. Isaacson
has been invited by the officials of
the National Base Ball federation to
attend the big sandlot conference at
the William Penn hotel in Pitts
burgh Monday, March "a, to outline
the local plan for the conduct and
promotion of both the so-called
amateur and semi-professional base
ball divisions of sandlbt base ball.
The conference has been called to
establish a standard code of eligi-
bility rules and regulations for both
the so-called amateur and semi-pro-
fessional classihcations of sandlot
base ball. This lack of a standard
code has prevented the more rapid
extension Of the sport in many parts
of the country and has often result
ed in much dissatisfaction when in.
ter-city championship series have
been arranged for.
Many leading recreation workers
and others interested in the develop
ment of sandlot base ball have ar
ranged to attend the Pittsburgh
conference and hope also to effect
a merger of all organizations now
endeavoffng in this and that section
of the country to promote amateur
or semi-professional base ball.
President John A. Heydler of the
National league, President Ban
Johnson of the American league and
Secretary John H. Farrell of the
National Association of Minor
Leagues have asked that the sand
lotters adopt rule barring all play
ers under contract, reserve or sus-
pension to professional league clubs.
Sheriff William S. Haddock of
Pittsburgh, president of the Allie
gheny Mountain association of the
Amateur Athletic union, and treas
urer of the United States Soccer
Foot Ball association, is head of the

BY KID GRAVES.

A great many local base ball fans
are expecting a good scrap in the
room adjoining Ernie Holmes Bill
lard parlors tonight, when the
Greater Omaha league managers
meet to discuss the coming season.
Most of them are ready to open the
year as a strictly semi-pro organi-
cation, but there are a few of them
that want to- stick to the amateur
game and that's the reason the fans
are expecting wordy battle.
Johnny Dennison, heretofore oppos-
ed to the semi-pro idea, is said to
have switched around and to be
now heartily in favor of the near
professional game. Some of them
are mean enough to say that the rea-
son for Johnny's change of front is
that he will get no revenue from the
amateurs for the use of his Luxus
park, while the semi-pros' could
hardly get along without it.
The old Omaha club manager,
Marty Krug, said yesterday that he
never requested transfer to some
other club or any other league and
that Pa Rourke just wanted to
shift him off for some unknown
reason of his own. Marty is just
little twisted in his ideas. Rourke
never stated that Krug requested
his transfer, at least not in the pres
ence of the writer. What he said
was that he feared Marty would not
feel right as a player among the
bunch he used to manage, that it
was an unwritten rule that managers
never came back to club as play
er, they were usually traded to some
other club or league. Perhaps is
Krug wants to remain with the
Omaha club, Prexy Rourke could
find way to cancel the deal with
the San Antonio club, for the old
manager was a popular fellow with
the Omaha base ball fans.
The probabilities are that Iowa's
boxing bill will be passed within the
next few days. Iowa and Nebraska
will be in the same fix that New
York and New Jersey are in. When
the boxing fans of New York want
to see a scrap they have to 60 over
into New Jersey for it. Needless to |

Will Arrive in Omaha
Wednesday on In.

Every United States bs&ioon man
who saw active service in the war
was trained in Fort Omaha.
This unqualified statement wa.
made in Washington last week by
Colonel Fl. D. Hersey, formerly in
command at the Omaha post and
just returned from France, to Rob
ert Marley, commissioner of the
Omaha Chamber of Commerce,
who was in the capital last week.
There was no knocking on the
Omaha-trained men, Their discip-
line and technical framing was the
subject of high praise" said Mr..
Hersey, who was with the first bal
loon men who entered Metz.
Colonel Hersey has only been
back from France 10 days and was
on tour of inspection of debarka-
ton points. He will arrive in Oma.
ha on an inspection trip Wednesday
morning.
Both Forts Omaha and Crook
will be retained for balloon work,
according to present plans of the

| say, the Jerseyites are making much
money out of it, for the New York
fight follower will go anywhere to
see a scrap. Omaha has a great
number of boxing followers, but it
is likely that other towns in the
state would send goodly quota of
fans to the Iowa ringsides as well.
\ y
Amateur ball players of Omaha
are wondering whether they ought
to attend the Municipal, league mass
meeting at the city hall Friday night,
or let some of the others do it, while
they take in the big wrestling match
at the Auditorium. It's pity that
some other date could not have been
arranged for the meeting, but as it
happened, this was the only conven-
lent date on which the new president
could be present Che proposed an
Eastern trip on account of the meet
ing), and as he is a real live wire
and has some fine ideas for lettering
amateur base ball in Omaha, the d.
rectors thought it best to hold the
meeting in opposition to the mat
match. Some of the simon-pure
managers have it figured that they
can attend the meeting and get the
main points and then get over to the
big show" in time to see the main
event, anyway.
The Cream City Athletic Club of
Milwaukee will try to stage the
Richie MITCHELL johnny Dundee
scrap after all. Everything was
ready for the fray, the men weighed
in and all other matters attended to
when the New Yorker was suddenly
forced to cali it off by the develop
ment of a nasty abscess behind one
Of his ears. The doctors wouldn't |
permit him to go through with the |
scrap, though Johnny pleaded with
them to lance the ear and bandage
it or cocaine it or do anything they
wanted to with it, just so he could |
go on against Mitchell. He had pre-
viously beaten Mitchell in ten
round scrap in Milwaukee and he |
was certain that he could repeat, be-
Sides it meant loss of considerable |
money to the little Scotch wop if he
couldn't go on with the scrap.

Rheumatism Has Never Been
Cured by Liniments or Lo-
tons, and Never Will Be.

You never knew of Rheumatism
that most painful source of suf-
fering-being cured by liniments,
lotions or other external applica-
tons. And you will never see any,
thing but temporary relief afforded
by such makeshifts.
But why be satisfied with tempo
rary relief from the pangs of pain
which are sure to return with in
creased severity, when there is per-
manent relief within your reach?
Science has proven that Rheuma-
tism is disordered condition of the
blood. How, then, can satisfactory
results be expected from any treat
ment that does not reach the blood,
