According to the Midwest

EVANS BOOSTS
YOUNG BLOOD

NEW YORK, Dec. 16.-"The
best young ball club in the
American League"
Billy Evans. general manager
Of the Cleveland Indians, en-
phaSized the word young" as
he described the prospects of his
team for 1881 today. He is a
man who knows his baseball, too,
having umpired for years in the
American League before he rose
to his present position of mag
nate. He Is a genial, prosperous
looking chap with broad shoul-
ders, square, aggressive jaw and
a ready smile. He talks enter
tainingly and to the point. And,
incidentally, he was "once a
newspaper man himself" a
good one, too, they say.
II think we have q good
ball club although not neces-
SariIy pennant club" said
Evans, cOnServativeIy. "1t's a
young club with fine lOssibiIi-
ties. The average age Of the
Cleveland team is two years
younger than any other club
In the circuit. The oldest Of
our outstanding players is
only rs years Of age.
"Since the close of the sea-
son we have strengthened the
club by buying four high-cIasS
pitchers, all Of them young,
for an aggregate amount Of
$1O5,0OO. We purchased Crag-
head, aged "a, from Oakland
for $4,000; Hildebrand, aged
21, from Indianapolis for
$4,000; Thomas, aged "a, from
Sacramento for $4,000, and
Lee, age FL, from New Or
leans for $4,000"
Evans declared that these young
fellows should bolster an already
strong and young pitching staff
immensely. Cleveland has on its
pitching roster the famous pitch
ing star, Yves Ferrell, who is only
%, and who last season was one
of the greatest hurlers in the
league, winning IS games and los

In some quarters it is claimed
that Ruel's transfer to the Red
SoX is part Of a trade which will
bring a player to Washington in
the spring. Prominent among
those mentioned is bespectacled
Danny MacFayden. youthful
pitcher.
In Boston to Stay
1t is claimed, however, that
the deal is outright and that the
hook-ball artist is in Boston to
stay.
Muddy's transfer to Boston
augurs well for his future. Having
managerial ambitions, it is like
ly that Ruel will succeed Shane
Collins as the Red Sox pilot if
the latter fails to deliver.
The penalty Of being q
1880 pennant contender like
ly will manifest itself when
Clark Griffith mails out his
1881 player contracts after
January /. In several in
stances the Old Fox has ad-
mittedly boosted salaries.
To date three players have
been signed. Pitcher Alvin Crow.
der, ShortStop Joe Cronin and
Outfielder Dave Harris have all
entered the fold.
Griffith voluntarily boosted the
ante Of Cronin and Harris. Also
Crowder, whose annual stipend
already runs into five figures,
profited by his 1881 terms.
Capt. Joe Judge, baseball's pre-
mier first baSeman; Pitcher Lloyd
Brown, Second Baseman Jack
Hayes, Outfielder Sam West and
several others are expected to like
wise benefit by last years perform
anceS.
Pull Down Fat Pay
In addition to those mentioned.
Sammy Rice. Sam Jones, Fred
Marberry, OSSie Bluege and Buddy
Myer all pull down healthy
salaries. These, supplemented by
the anticipated increases in other
instances, should cut heavily into
the Juicy 1880 dividend declared
by the washington Club.
Though naturally elated by the
effectiveness shown by Pitcher Ad
Liska in American League COM
pilations, Clark Griffith refuses to
wax enthusiastic.
He says:
what I'm most interested
in is the won and lost col
umn. A pitcher winning ball
games for me can permit as
many tallieS as he pleaseS-
SO long as he wins"
Nevertheless the Old Fox ex-
poets much from LiSka in 1881.
Also he is banking nightly upon
his two kid left handerS, Bobby
Burke and Lloyd Brown.
Brown, he explains, arrived last
year. He also refuses to give up
on Burke.
In this connection he explains: {:
Herb Pennock needed time to
come around. Bob's the same
type. Don't be surprised If he
develops into a big winner within
the next few years"

Hearing Friday May Lead
to Filing of Damage
Suit by Judge.

By United Press
NEW YORK, Dec. 9-The Judge
Ben B. Lindsey Bishop William T.
Manning controversy, which reached
a climax Sunday when Lindsey was
thrown out of the Cathedral of St.
John the Divine after he had tried
to reply to the bishops sermon
against companionate marriage, ap-
peared today to be pointing toward
another outburst Friday.
The former judge Of the Denver
juvenile court, and vigorous expon-
ent of the theory of companionate
marriage, will appear then in west
side court to answer a charge of
disorderly conduct, brought against
him as a result of the near riot in
the cathedral.
Pleaded Not Guilty
Bishop Manning, head of the
Episcopal diocese of New York, has
been Subpenaed to appear against
him.
Lindsey, when arraigned Monday,
pleaded not guilty and gained an
adjournment until Friday because
of numerous speaking engagements.
In an interview with newspaper
men and the news reel cameras
after he left the courtroom, Judge
Lindsey emphasized that he objected
not to Bishop Manning's attack on
him, but on companionate marriage.
He still is considering, he said,
bringing a suit for damages against
the bishop.
Manning Claim Denied
Bishop Manning's assertion from
the pulpit Sunday that he had only
requested" that Lindsey not be
allowed to address the New York
Churchman'S Association last week
was denied by the Rev. Eliot White,
chairman of the luncheon commit
tee of that body.
Mr.. White filed an affidavit, also
attested to by his wife, that Bishop
Manning commanded" the organ
ization to withdraw Lindsey's speak
ing invitation,

this remarkable compound for the
stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels,
and for rheumatism, neuritis and

But right now read what Mr..
Henry said to the Konjola Man:
i had indigestion for a great
many years. Food soured, gas
formed and 1 suffered terrible mis-
cry. I lost weight and finally had
to give up work. My kidneys be-
came affected: my back hurt and
at night I had to get up seven. or
eight times. a bad liver caused
headaches and dizzy spells. My
complexion was sallow; dark spots
came before my eyes and my bow
els were slow to move. I took seven
bottles of Konjola and every symp-
tom vanished. I gained fifty pounds
since taking Konjola, and that was
two years ago. I surely recommend
Konjola to any one. for today con-
slider myself in perfect health.
Konjola is no tdesigned TO give
mere temporary relief; it is not that
kind of medicine. Konjola contains
no alcohol. no nerVe-deadening
