UMPIRES HELPLESS mum ni hOIPP! WHtH MtH "OfldO Menke Says Feds Make Hard Rows for Other Circuit Arbiters. NEW YORK, July 21. This la proving a bad year for the umpires la the American and National leagues, the players have taken to "Bassing" the former czars in a most unladylike manner, and the poor old umps don't know what to do about it. Of course they are chasing the sassers from the game, with the reckless abandon of yore, but they aren't levying fines as they used to in the good old dayB before the (VHa natno into helner. YOU see, it doesn't pain a player to be chased from the game. In fact, he rather likes it. It means a vacation for him. But being fined, and having said fine deducted from hia finvelone is a different matter al together. It wallops him In his most nfnsitiv snot. In other years the players were walloped that way and thv had no recourse. This year it's a bit different. If a fine is assessed and a nlaver thinks it unjust, all he nppria to do ia to 1umn to the Feds It's a grand little situation for the player, but think of and sympathize With the poor dears who officiate as umpires. The worst they dare to do to a player who wounds their feelings is to chase those fellows from the game. And that, in the eyes of the players. Is the best possible thing that could happen to 'em. To Become Clouter. Dave Robertson, the slugging Giant recruit says that the best method to pursue in becoming a demon clouter Is to "pick one out and bust it." Quite so, Dave, quite so. But this business of picking one out, Davey what's the receipe for that?" This is a "Tim Hurst story that is labeled new," but It seems to us that we heard it in the long ago. But some of the new recruits to fandom might not have been in the audience 60 we repeat it for their perusal. "Tim" was umpiring a game in Washington one day. Catcher Charley Street, who was known as "Gabby" was at bat. "Tim" called a strike. "Gabby" whirled on "Tim." "Hey, what's matter with your lamps, hey?" Street queried, as gently as a Bummer breeze that got mixed up in a western cyclone. "Tim" fished a newspaper out of his pocket one that had been folded to show the batting averages at first Bight. "Huh" sneered ' "Tim," running his finger down the column. "Ye have a foine kick comin', ye has not. I see by these averages thot you're hitting about .200." Takes Street's Breath. Street was speechless for the rest of the game. "Tim" always was a great little per son for carrying the latest batting and pitching averages around on his per son. The plan proved to be a great 6ilencer for batters who kicked because strikes were called and pitchers who kicked because balls were called Christy Mathewson seems to be McGraw's pitching staff again. Matty is the only Giant hurler who can be counted on to bring home the bacon with any degree of certainty. Marquard and Demaree have been going like a pair of spavined truck horses Tesreau got away to a fine state, but has been unreliable lately. Unless this trio soon rounds into form, and gives a little assistance to Matty, McGraw will be under the necessity of starting some of the kid pitchers, in the hope that one or two of them will perform in winning style. But such a plan is a dangerous experiment. Doping Sport With the Pal The kangaroo is nimble With his long and leggy bounds He never travels slowly In his journeys over ground. But while he takes the doughnut As a bounding cockatoo, There are certain baseball players Who can do some jumping too. MATTY'S MISTAKE. Mr. Mathewson, in writing upon the baseball situation in these United States, says: "The Giants must hold their lead to win the pennant." What Mr. Mathewson evidently means is that the Giants will have to finish first to win the pennant. DODGERS LOSE OUT. As a result of the frolic in Chicag6, whereby the Cubs beat the Dodgers, the lead of the Giants has been cut down to two and a half games. CALL IT OFF. If there are many more of those 21 inning games played someone will be demanding a statute of limitations. DECENT GERMS. Mr. McGraw ought to keep a jar of tonsilitis germs in stock. Following an attack of that ailment Tesreau pitched a one-hit game and Marquard subdued the Pirates in a 21-round pastime. APPEA8E IT, PLEASE. London is looking forward to the fight between Georges Carpentier and Young Ahearn on August 2. The hunger of the British sportsmen for punishment must be insatiable. NOT FOR HEINIE. A baseball player who was struck In the mouth by a pitched ball became dumb. Now if such a calamity should befall Heinle Zimmerman of Chicago, he would be festooned over the bench less often. BRESNAHAN STICKS ST. LOUIS, July 21. Roger Bresnahan, asked to supplant Mordecai Brown as manager of the St. Louis Federals, has refused, but refused in such terms the President E. A. Stelnlnger, of the Federals, believes it is merely a matter of time before the big catcher will become a manager in St. Louis again. Roger replied that he could not quit the club with Archer hurt and the Cubs in the race for the pennant.

NUMEROUS ERRORS DEFEAT SEEDERS A comedy of errors was staged at Easthaven last Saturday afternoon when the A. S. M. team went down to defeat before the Easthaven team by the score of 8 to 5. Despite the fact that the machinists had thirteen hits chalked up against Dooley, the Easthaven pitcher, they . were unable to make them count. The Easthaven team made every error of the A. S.

That the Jack Johnson-Sam Langford battle sched uiea tor here or in Paris in October win be a fake if the present arrangements go through, is the firm belief of William H. Rocah, one of the leading writers in this city. The writer says both colored fighters are on the pugilistic decline and that the coming match may be their valedictory. MATCH SHUBA. CHICAGO, July 21. Stanley Shuba and Sam Michaels have been matched to fight the wind-up performance at the Maple Grove, 111., boxing show to be held next Friday night.

PRESBYTERIANS WIN FROM SPECIALS, 18-9 The Sunday School League Schedule Changes Owing to Teams Withdrawing.

This was the first game in the Sunday School league at the

Adequate Sewers Needed. As a result of the discussion over the very bad condition of a sewer at North Eighteenth and E streets, Mayor Robbins made a very interesting statement regarding Richmond's storm sewer system. He said that today Richmond with its 25,000 inhabitants is trying, to get along with a sewer system constructed to meet the needs of a city of less than half that population. An adequate sewer system, he said, is one of the crying needs of the city, and that plans are now being considered to meet this demand, but in the meantime only temporary remedies could be provided. Last night for about the sixth time Councilman Walterman issued an ultimatum for the improvement of South Sixth street, and he resented the fact that the board of public works had taken no action in this matter. He was told that the street department had its hands full, and would make the improvements demanded as soon as possible. Other Picks. Councilman Howells complained about' the non-removal of dirt which had washed onto sidewalks on North Nineteenth street, and he also aske.d that Northe Eighteenth street be put in proper repair. Council Steinbrink issued another ultimatum demanding the repairing of South Eleventh street from Main to A street. Councilman Steinkrink also introduced a resolution to the effect that the water works and gas companies have failed to observe the agreement they had entered into with the city to place streets torn up by them in proper repair, and ordering the board of works now to have these repairs made, the expense to be charged against the two companies. This was adopted j without a dissenting vote. Councilman Wilkins complained of the bad condition of a sewer on Sherman street.

WEST SIDE PARK

(Continued from Page One.) have the slightest idea what it would cost to acquire the property. - City Attorney Bond then took a hand in the discussion by declaring council had no authority to purchase the prop erty if it bo desired. The board of works would first have to enter Into a I contract for the property, which would then be submitted to council for acceptance or rejection, he said. To the amusement of city, officials and spectators. City Clerk Bescher then read a communication from the board of public works which was directly contradictory to the city attorney's opinion. This communication passed the "buck" of the riverside park project right up to council. Such a movement, read the board's epistle. comes within the jurisdiction of coun cil and not the board, and, therefore, the fate of the question depended upon such action by council as "conforms to its judgment of expediency and grogression, so that a general understanding may be had." Appoints Committee. After council had decided to investi gate the question before taking any action, Mayor Robbins appointed Councilmen Waidele, Weishaupt and Wal terman as investigators, and it is gen erally agreed that the .next two weeks wil be busy ones for these officials. As strong as the sentiment for a riverside park is, there is a well-developed opposition to the project, principally because there are many other improvements the city stands more In need of. This opposition sympathizes with West Richmond people over the troubles they have been having with HOW TO PREVENT ACID STOMACHS AND FOOD FERMENTATION By a Stomach Specialist. As a specialist who has spent many years in the study and treatment of stomach trouble, I have been forced to the conclusion that most people who complain of stomach trouble possess ftomachs that are absolutely healthy and normal. The real trouble, that which causes all the pain and difficulty, is excessive acid in the stomach, aggravated by food fermentation.. Hyperacidity irritates the delicate lining of the stomach and food fermentation causes wind which distends the stom ach abnormally, causing that full bloated feeling. Thus both acid and fermentation interfere with and retard the process of digestion. The stomach is usually healthy and normal, but irritated almost past endu.('j.nce by these" foreign elements acid and wind. In all such sases and they comprise over 90 per cent of all stomach difficulties the first and only step necessary is to neutralize the acid and stop the fermentation by taking in a little warm or cold water immediately after eating, from one to two teaspoonfuls of bisurated magnesia, which is doubtless the best and only really effective antacid and food corrective known. The acid will be neutralized and the fermentation stopped olmost instantly, and yc-ur stomach will at once proceed to digest the food in a healthy, normal manner. Be sure to ask your druggist for the bisurated magnesia, as I have found other forms utterly lacking in its peculiarly valuable properties. F. J. G.

the obnoxious Doran bridge dump, but they offer as a remedy for this pest seevral cans of blasting powder tor the purpose of eliminating it. Bond Issue Necessary. To carry out the proposed park project an expense of several thousand dollars would be entailed, and as the city's revenue is but little in excess of its actual operating expenses, there is every reason to believe that a bond issue would have to be floated to acquire the property and fit it up for

park purposes. This the administration does not desire to do. City of ficials point out that within two years the city's present bonded Indebtedness, about $45,000, will have been entirely paid. The argument is also being generally advanced that Richmond is now "park poor", having five public recreation places and two large private parks, which are open to the public.
