PICKS FOB SUNDAY'S GAME Manager Slates Bacon for Mound Duty Touting the Youngster As Second Only to Immortal Christy. NOVACK A FAST PLAYER New Fielder Popkins, Brings Awe Inspiring Reputation for Ending Contests With jfeVats. Manager Kenney, of the Richmond club, has picked his line-up for the initial game of the season Sunday. McCann, Schroder, Steiner, Merkle, Novack, Popkins, Shepard, Cushing, Lenniger and Bacon are the men who will be seen in the Quaker uniform when the team takes the field for the inspection of local bugs. According to Kenney "this line-up is a peach, too." The Richmond manager has gathered together an assortment of ilie best men obtainable in semi-pro ranks and has the opinion that Richmond will be represented by the fastest aggregation that ever cavorted at Athletic park. For a battery, Kennedy has lined up Bacon and Novack. Bacon is but a youngster, but comes here with a record that would make Christy Mathewson look to his laurel3. Bacon has played on some of the fastest teams of Cincinnati and according to reports, is due to go up next year. Novack is well known here, having played on the West Covington nine last season. The Richmond infield works will be composed of Messrs. Popkins, Steiner, Cushing and Lenniger. Popkins, the young giant, needs no recommendation. Popkins is a field ot no mean ability, but his specialty is clouting. Various and many are the tales narrated about the games he has abbreviated by his swats. Quaker bugs are billed to see some powerful biffs from off the bat of this chap. Steiner, Cushing and Lenniger are vouched for by Kenney. The garden territory will be in the custody of McCann, Shepard and Merkle. "Red" McCann, who is a vet at the game, will hold down the left section of the field, while Merkle, the only man of last year's -Richmond team, will be seen at the center stand. Shepard will fill the other section. TAKE UP BASEBALL Garfield Boys Organize School League. Baseball has supplanted basketball at the Garfield school. With the arrival of warmer weather, athletically inclined youths of the junior school deserted the gym for the play ground and from now on baseball, track and tennis will be on the program. Baseball leagues are being formed at the school to take the place of the basketball circuits that went into the discard. Two circuits will be formed, one for the junior and one f6r the senior lads of the school. Scheduleswill be drawn up and games started at once. Thf. national game is not the only sport that is taking the attention of the members of Garfield, as track and tennis are attracting large numbers. Kach night squads of youths work on the cinders and on the field in preparation for the school meet, which will be held next month. The tennis courts will be put into condition at once. BATTLE THIRTEEN ROUNDS TO TIE BOSTON, .Mass., April 22. Boston and Philadelphia battled for thirteen innings yesterday without decision, darkness ending the game with the score 1 to 1.

MENTAL FUZZINESS You can't look a man in the eye when you are out-of-sorts and half sick. You unconsciously show that you are guilty of a breach of Nature's laws. You are fearful because you are mentally fuzzy. Because of some excess. Nature fell behind in her work of purifying the food in the intestines. The Bile is clogged in the Liver. Your blood is taking up the germ laden food and you are stupid fuzzy half a man. The Doctors call it "Auto intoxication." PoDoLax Releases the Bile v Bile is Nature's disinfectant and purifies the food in the intestines. Without it we sicken with a free flow we are immune from germs because no foreign germ can multiply after immersion in Bile. PoDoLax releases the Bile from the Liver. It does it gently, but surely, and after a few days your fuzziness disappears. BILE purifies the body-building food that's why you gain In strength why you become alert and vigorous after taking PoDoLax a short time. Do you want further justification? A 50c bottle will prove it absolutely. PoDoLax is a Podophyllin formula that tastes good that releases the Bile gently without annoyance or loss of time. "PoDo" from Podophyllin "Lax," from Laxative PoDoLax is the name. Ask for it by this name.

CENTRAL GETS AWAY
League Opens Series Three Games. With OPENING GAMES. Terre Haute at Evansville. Grand Rapids at Ft. Wayne. Springfield at Dayton. The Central League is billed to get under way today. AH clubs claim to be in great condition and the managers of eight teams are claiming the rag. Grand Rapids, last year's champs, seem to have the best chances of copping the flag from present indications. It is next "to an impossibility, however, to compare the relative strength of the teams of the circuit as all teams have practically changed line-ups for this season's work. The brand of ball played by the minor organization last year made such a hit with the older circuits that half of the stars have left the ranks for larger fields.

RED'S YOUNGSTERS GET FAIR TRIALS Herzog Allows Boys to Perform in Big-Games Which Pleases Fans.
BY C. H. ZUBER. CINCINNATI, April 22. No haste is being shown by Manager Herzog, of the Reds, in the matter of ridding himself of surplus material. While some of his youngsters have been turned over to the minors for further development, quite a number of the youths garnered from the various leagues last fall still are among those present, and will remain for a while longer. Heretofore it lias been the practice of Red managers to give the preference to veterans, this being especially true of the pitching department, and allowing the youngsters but few opportunities to break into the line-up. Herzog ' is working along different lines. He is taking no chances on making mistakes regarding the boys who looked good to him during southern practice, and so is giving all those that displayed some features of major league form a chance to show what they can do. Pitchers Davenport, Douglass, Adams, Lear and Ingersoll all have been in championship games this season as have Catchers Gonzales and Von Kolnitz, and all the recruit infielders and outfielders. When the final cutting down comes it will be based on actual performances, and not on gues work, which is as it should be. Infield Works Well. Of the two National league teams that have opposed the Reds so far this season, the Pittsburgs appear to have far and away the best of it. Their infield works more smoothly, the outfield really is better, and their pitchers and catchers are fully equal to those of the Cubs. Add to this the greater influence of Manager Clarke over his men, and it is plain that, viewed at the present time, the Pirates are a safer bet for high honors than the Cubs. In the Eastern division of the National league New York and Boston, of whom most was expected, have been having the poorest results. It is not expected that they will continue in their early rut; at the same time they are taking on a handicap by losing their early games. That followers of the game are partial to young players and like to see debutants succeed was clearly demonstrated at Sunday's game between the Reds and the Pirates, when the real spirit of the crowd was displayed on the appearance of Catcher Alike Gonzales and Pitcher Adams. The Cuban backstop has been touted as an able man, and his work so far has justified the recommendation. Adams is not so well known, but the very fact that he is a youngster secured for him an enthusiastic reception. This preference for youngsters will be recognized by Manager Herzog in future Sunday games, and he promises to have several of -his new stars in the line-up against the Cardinals next Sunday, and against the Pirates when they come again on Sunday, May 2. T CALLED OFF Busch and Hack Fail to Agree. The match that was to have been t il Cn c hata'ona ' . w 1 I 1, . U - r I O '". .j- l-'v in, V 111 I IHi.'l 11, LUC VJ I I " man giaypicr, ana xoung nacKenschmidt, the Russian mat-artist, has been called off owing to the fact that satisfactory terms could not be agreed upon by the two men. Busch issued the challenge through the columns of the local papers and Hack responded with a reply that he was willing to take the German on at any place and at any time. Busch seemed to be willing enough at first, but seemed to become afflicted with a case of "chills" later on. Hack has done everything in his power to effect a meeting but the fact that he outweighs the German seems to be the principal drawback. Busch wanted Hark to come down to his weight at 165, and Hack refused, although he agreed to split the difference and make it 167. Busch again demurred and Hack, apparently disgusted at the unwillingness of the German, packed his grip and left for Chicago. WHERE MANAGERS .MAY GET GAMES SEMI-PRO. Richmond Senators E.

HOLLAND GLASS CO, MAY LOCAJE HERE S. S. I. A. Negotiates With Directors of Ohio Concern Seeking Site for Large Branch Plant.
SET PARK OPENING A factory prospect, a south side picnic, the coming carnival, repairs of property of the association, the election of a new director, work that is being done by the various committees of the organization these were some of the things that came up before the directors of the. South Side Improvement association, at their meeting last night. The Holland Glass company, of Urbana, O., may locate here if satisfactory terms can be agreed upon. The company desires, to . locate a branch in this section of the state, and the local association will make every effort to land the concern. The secretary was ordered to offer the company's promoters ,a proposition tol bring the firm here. Action will be taken at ance, if a favorable reply is received. It was decided to hold the formal opening of Beallview park the first Sunday in May. The affair is an annual one, and all citizens of the city are invited to attend. A program will be prepared for the day, and the event promises to be one of 'the redletter days of the year. Speeches, ball game, music, games and other diversions will feature the picnic. A committee will be appointed at once, and preparations made for completing all arrangements for the affair. Carnival Coming. The McLaughlin shows will be at the park the following week. T. C. McConologue, who is at the head of the carniva'l, has completed all arrangements for bringing his company here May 3. He guarantees the company that he will have at least eight first-class shows on the ground, and furthermore states that nothing objectionable will be allowed. Mr. McConologue made this assertion after the members of the South Side Improvement association had given him to understand that no fakes of any kind would be tolerated. The question of repairs to the roof of the glove factory and the pavilion at the park came before the body. The directors voted to get some one to make an examination of the roof and to take the necessary means to repair it. The roof of the pavilion will likely be overhauled and the building otherwise put in condition for the coming season. Will Bartel, Jr., was elected to fill the vacancy on the directorate made by the leaving of Cash Beall. Mr. Bartel's choice was unanimous. That the edict issued by the association that the boys of the south side quit, using the Seventh Street Park as a ball field has had results is evidenced by the fact that no more games have been staged there. HOPES WILSON MAY STILL AVERT WAR President Kelly Lauds Course of Executive in Efforts to Keep Peace. "I hope President Wilson will stand pat and not let the hot-headed people of the country force the nation to go to war." said Robert L. Kelly, president of Earlham college, today, discussing the Mexican situation. President Kelly and members of the Friends' church are opposed to war. That the nation's executive had handled the trouble with the utmost skill and diplomacy was Dr. Kelly's opinion. He said Wilson had followed the proper course from the beginning, and had used excellent judgment in his efforts to maintain peace. Commenting on the prediction of the continental newspapers that the annexation of Mexico would be the j next step taken by the United States, i Dr. Kelly said: "The annexation of Mexico would be foolishness. The trouble is that they do not understand Wilson. They are basing their opinions on the old style diplomacy, while Wilson is show-i ing the world a new method of dealing with international affairs on a higher plane. Although the continental press has been hostile to his attitude all the time, his has been the only wise course."

4,000 From UJS. in Mexico According to an estimate based on late consular reports, there are today in Mexico approximately 4,000 American citizens. No absolutely accurate estimate, however, of their distribution can be made because of the fact that dispatches received today indicate that they are flocking to seaport . towns, especially Vera Cruz and Tampico. It is thought at the State Department that they are distributed about as follows : Mexico City, 1,200 ; Vera Cruz, 00 ; Tampico, 500 ; Monterey, about 250 left after the exodus following the first battle df Torreon; Torreoh, 150; Guadalajara, 200; Chihuahua, 150; Guanajuato, 150; and a few scattered through such towns as Guaymas, Mazatlan, Acapulco, and other small communities inland.
WILL CASE TIES UP CIRCUIT COURT Because of repeated delays in the Hankins will care, which was postponed again yesterday because of the death of Attorney Elliott's wife, the circuit court docket will not be carried out as Judge Fox had arranged. The docket now shows the following suits that were set for trial this week: Monday State against George Hicks. Hicks, who lives near Milton, is accused of entering and robbing a camp on Greensfork, southeast of Milton. He was caught in Connersville in February disposing of some of the goods stolen from the camp. Wednesday State against Henry Smith. Smith faces a charge of running a blind tiger under the guise of a literary club known as the Cosmopolitan club. A police raid revealed no reading matter in the place oeyond beer and whisky bottle labels. Friday Miles against Miles. Suit for divorce. Saturday Brinker et al against Bricker. Ejectment suit and demand for damages against the owner of the Bricker garage by a new garage company, which will occupy the room Bricker now holds. Monday Pollard against the Citizens' Telephone company. The case from the western part of the county will attract considerable attention when it comes to trial. Mrs. Pollard, who lived near Hagerstown, was killed by a faulty telephone during a thunder storm a year ago. The telephone was operated by the Citizens' company at Cambridge City. All the cases will not be postponed, but the ejectment proceedings . of Brinker against Bricker will be heard and the divorce suit of Miles against Miles will be brought into court. Other cases probably will be set down for trial the second week in May. U, S, HAS 750 RIFLEUVAILABLE Six Hundred Field Guns Are Still Needed, and Factories Are Busy Making Shells. "Until a state of war has been de clared to exist between the United States and Mexico, I believe It would'j be a violation of international law for ! the American troops to confiscate the ; arms which General Huerta is expecting to receive from Germany," said Prof. W. C. Woodward, of Earlham college, an authority on international law, discussing what may become the source of international complications. Germany, he believes, would be perfectly justified in demanding what right the United States had to take such action. Huerta had expected to receive 10,00 rifles and 15,000,000 cartridges on the liner Ypiranga, which is due to arrive at Vera Cruz today. If the United States and Mexico were at war, Dr. Woodward said, this country would be justified in seizing the ammunition as contraband. Balls Bats Gloves Mitts L Shoes Etc. Uniforms to Order Sam S.

THREATEN STRIKE IN CASE OF WAR NEW YORK, April 22. United States District Attorney Marshall had his attention officially called yesterday to the utterances by William D. Haywood at the free speech meeting of the Industrial Workers' conference at Carnegie hall Sunday night. Haywood said there would be a general mine strike if war is ordered on Mexico. It is believed that Mr. Marshall has been in communication with Washington on the subject of the Haywood speech. The federal district attorney said that unless Haywood repeats his Sunday night speech or in lieu of repetition makes any hostile move toward putting the effect of the speech into force, he cannot be regarded as a seditious character.
