Cardui has been found to relieve headache, backache, pain in the side and diz ziness arising from deranged organs. It does more than relieve, —if used persistently,—many have writ ten to say that it cured them. —CARDUI If Will Help You 1 ” Mrs. Maxwell Johnson, Tampa, Fla., writes: "Cardui cured me after doctors and everything else had failed. I had been suffer ing v, ijh numb spells ever since I was 16 years old. One day I decided to take Cardui. I have now taken 5 bottles and I can say that it has cured me.

In the following table is given a list of the twenty sports fos tered by the Eastern universi ties, with the college which won the championship in each. The list follows. 3port. Champion. Football . 'Harvard-Pennsylvania Baseball Pennsylvania Rowing Cornell Track athletics Harvard Basketball Columbia Cricket Pennsylvania Chess . Pennsylvania-Princeton Cross country running . Cornell Association football . Columbia Fencing West Point Golf Yale Gymnastics . ... . Columbia Hockey Harvard Lacrosse Cornell Swimming .... Pennsylvania Shooting Yale Rifle shooting . Geo. Washington Tennis. . Pennsylvania-Harvard Water polo Yale The refusal of Sam Langford to fight Stanley Ketchel at Ely, New, for one-fifth of the $25,000 purse, id regarded by fight followers as an in dication that Langford does not con sider Ketchel so easy a proposition. Sporting men agree that if Ketchel and Johnson were as easy to whip as Langford has publicly declared them to be, he could afford to fight them without any financial interest in the purses to be offered. A 1 Kaufman will not fight Jack Johnson before the Mission Club 'in San Francisco in August. Announce ment was made to this effect by Bil ly Delaney, his manager, who said : ‘ Kaufman will not fight Johnson in August or September. He will take his time and will not be rushed into a fight. When Kaufman enters the ring he will be in the best possible shape.’’ To engage in a game of baseball or football while at any college or school either chartered or receiving financial aid from the state, will become a criminal act, if the bill introduced into the Georgia legislature by Represen tative Adams of Hall county is pass ed. The measure is entitled “An act to prohibit and prevent football and baseball games between institutions witich receive state aid or hold state charters and to provide penalties for all violations.’’ Not only are the stu dents who engage in the games to be arrested and .punished as misde meanants, but the members of any faculty who permit or encourage the playing of the games are equally guil ty and must go to jail, too. After a conviction any school whose stu dents are found guilty loses its state aid if it be a sttae Institution and its charter if it be a private school or college. Adams says he will give the committee good reasons for a .favora ble report when the time comes. Umpire Weeks, who worked a short time in the South Atlantic League, declares Castro to be the boss of the whole business. "Castro does just as he pleases,’’ says Weeks, “and takes things as easy as if he were ruler of the universe.’’ The “more daylight” movement, now being so strongly pushed by the National Daylight Association of Cin cinnati, and by its friends throughout the entire country, is one that meeu with the hearty approval of the sport ing world. Walter S. Mayer, chief of the post office inspectors of New York, is in vestigating the truth of reports from Cincinnati purporting to explain how individuals in that city have of late been receiving “winning tips” on the races by means of letters mailed sub sequent to the races, ante-dated by some clerk in a New York postoffice. T. R. Pell of New York, indoor ten nis champion of the United States, Nvon the southern championship title in singles by defeating Dr. Nat Thorn ton of Atlanta three straight sets, 6-1, 6-1, 6-0. Pell clearly outplayed his opponent in nearly all departments of the game. In view of the increased price of manufacture, the price of crude rub ber having doubled within the last three months, the American tiremak ers have isued a circular to automo bile manufacturers and dealers, an nouncing an advance of from 15 to 25 per cent in all tires. A shadow of his old self, Terry Mc- Govern, once featherweight champion pugilist of the world, was taken to a sanitarium at Amityville, L. I. “1 want to go home so: I want to go home,” he pleaded when friends tried to get him into an automobile that was to take him away. After much persuasion, he agreed to go if his mother would ride in the car with him. McGovern had been in the ob servation waVd of the Kings County Hospital since his arrest on a charge of ißtoxication. The Independence Day attendance this season in the major leagues was reduced in the total through the pre vention of two National League games in Chicago and one American League game in St. Louis; but the average was up to expectations and previous records. The six National League contests drew 70,922 persons, with Pittsburg undoubtedly breaking the attendance record for one day with 41,852 paid admissions. The seven American Lea 10 contests drew 76,- 784 persons. This gives a grand to tal of 147,706 paid admissions for the day. Ample evidence that baseball interest and enthusiasm has not abat ed a jot, despite the fact, that the races are less close this season than they were last year at this period. James J. Jeffries and Jack Johnson ! failed to meet In Chicago according ,to the schedule outlined by their representative. Jeffries was at the appointed race, but Johnson did not leave his training temp in Indiana, and said he would not meet Jeffries. Jeffries issued a statement later, in which ho said: “In view of the many conflicting reports regarding my in tentions, 1 will make my plans public as follows: “At the conclusion of my theatrical contract, which will be July 25. 1 will sail for Europe for a two or three weeks’ visit, and then Carlsbad. Before sailing l will post my forfeit to meet Johnson before the club offer ing the best inducements, and best situated to held the contest, "I sin cerely hope that my action will quiet the doubts of those who have quest ioned the sincerity of my intentions.” Carter, of Atlanta, won the Geor gia state championship in tennis singles from Eden Taylor, of Macon. Score, 6-4 6-3 7-5. Young Corbett, the one time conqueror of Terry McGovern, proved an easy victim for young Johnny Frayne, of San Francisco, who knocked him out in the eighth round of a bout, scheduled to go twenty five rounds. Corbett, probably, was in no condition to put up a hard bat tle, and at no time did he appear to have a chance. The Corbett of today is hardly a reminder of the once great lightweight who but a few years ago electrified the sporting world with his wonderful battles. His famous “haymaker” was ill-timed, and there was no power behind it. Edward Payson Weston, the world’s veteran pedestrian, has completed his walk across the great American con tinent. He accomplished the walk from New YOrTi to San Francisco in 105 walking days after one of the me i strenuous and trying feats in his ca reer. Though now in his 70th year, he has averaged 39 miles a day, hav ing negotiated 3,900 measured miles most of the way on the railway,where he asserts a quarter of a mile is lost every mile walked. Hale and hearty Cranston, the Memphis second base man, is still the real leader of the Southern League in base hitting. O'Connor, of Little Rod:, and Daubert, of Memphis, are ahead of him in the percentage column; but they have not been in enough games to warrant them holding the lead. But even Cranston has a contender for the honors. Taking in points of number of games played, Paul Sentell, the Mobile captain and shortstop, is the real leader of the league, with a per centage of .297, he having played in 15 more games than Cranston. The Cuban has been playing a great game this season, and his headwork and fighting spirit are responsible for Mobile’s high standing in the race for the pennant. The leading run getter in the Southern League to date is Dick Bay lcss, the fast little outfielder of tlie Atlapta team, He has crossed the pan 47 times Persons, of Montgomery comes second, with 41, and Sentell, of Mobile, third, with 39. It looks as if Noah Henline, the fast left, fielder of the Birmingham Barons, will be the first man to reach the 100-hit mark this season in the Southern league. At present, Hen line is leading the players in the num ber of hits made, with 89. Sentell is second with 81. Baerwald, of Mem phis, is third, with 76. “Bugs" Raymond walked down Broadway the other day with a spool of white threqd in his pocket. What he carried it for, nobody knows. A loose thread hung out of his pocket, and a colored man who knew the eccentric pitcher rushed up to him and said. “’Scuse me, Mistah Bugs, but Ihere is, a raveling on you” coat. I’ll just pick it off.” “He followed me a block,” said Bugs, telling the story, “and kept pulling out that thread. I stopped, and when he caught up to me again he said: ’Mistah Bugs, I do not think I quite got it all yet.” An automobile making ihe circuit of the Cobe cup race course at Crown Point, Ind., cashed into a machine containing Jack Johnson, the heavy weight pugilist, and a party of friends. Johnson was not injured, but one of the women of the party was perhaps fatally hurt. Several others were slightly injured. The fact that Charleston failed to good in the South Atlantic League this year was a disappoint ment, but taking Knoxville in has shortened some of the jumps and cut down the railroad expenses. , A story sent out from Macon says Ty Cobb, the Georgian who has be come famous in the realm of base ball, will engage in business in Ma con at the end of the present season. He will bj state manager for a De troit automobile manufactory. He will have branch offices in Atlanta, Sa vannah and two other Georgia cities. He expects to establish a permanent business and his retirement from the diamond will probably follow. His contract has already been signed with the company, and he is negotiating here for a place of business. Pitcher William Lelivelt has been sold to the Detroit American League 1 lub by the Mobile Southern League C lub for $2,800 in cash and the ex change of Pitchers Suggs and Allen and Catcher Casey. Tired of waiting for the minor league hoard to pass on the case of Pitcher George Paige, claimed by New Orleans and Charleston, Manager Irank has bought Paige from Knox ville for S9OO. D>Lu Castro and his Augusta insur gents are certainly making things go some in the South Atlantic League under the new order of things. Do You Get Up With a Lame Back?
