TURF WAR THREATENS Hot Springs, Ark., Jan. 5. According to an ultimatum issued- here today by the Rome Respess faction it ' is "peace or war and take your pick" for the turf magnates ln the modification of the Amis anti-racing law in this state. Respess controls Essex Park here and Condon and Stuart control Oaklawn. "We want a fair bill, one that provides for a commission to be named by the governor, and one that will be impartial in the distribution of racing dates and nothing less will go," say the Respess men. They are willing to join hands for a modification of the race law, but want the dates fixed so that Essex Park will not suffer through any throwdown after the legislature has adjourned. The Condon-Stuart faction will be forced to compromise ln order that the racing interests may go before the legislature with a harmonious front.
If the food you ate at your last meal did not digest, but laid for a long time like lead on your stomach, then you

Of course there are many other symp

if you have' any of them, your stomach is out of order and should be corrected. Mi-o-na tablets have cured thousands of cases of indigestion and stomach trouble. If you have any stomch distress, Mi-ona will relieve instantly. But Mi-o-na unlike 'most so-called dypspepsla remedies, does more than relieve; it permanently cures dyspepsia or any stomach trouble by putting energy and strength into the walls of the stomach, where the gastric juices are produced.

Kansas City, Jan. 5. John Kling, the Cubs' catcher, opened his new $35,000 billiard hall tonight.

On account of just opening a new hall it is possible that Kling will not take the southern training trip with the world's champions in the spring. He said he hoped to beg off on that trip, as he would be able to get Into condition by practicing with the American association team here. Of course.
