WHITESIDE WARMS QUAKER REGULARS TO FIGHT BAPTISTS Coach Subdues Spirit of Over Confidence Which Follows Decisive Victory Over Rose Poly Eleven. All of Earlham's regulars are in pei feet condition for the game against Franklin on Reid field Saturday afternoon. All indications point to an KHrlham victory although the men expect to have a hard fight with the Baptists. '.loach Whiteside has been working the Quakers a little easier this week so that there will be less danger of injuries. The scrimmage practice, which is to be held this evening, will be the first scrimmage of the week, vvhloh is different from the plan used by the coach so far this season, in giving scrimmage workouts the first part of the .week. lOarlier in the season Franklin would have been feared by the Quakers but it is believed that after the great, development shown in the Quaker machine the past few weeks and Hie slump that apparently has taken hold of the Baptists since the early part of the season, Earlham will have little trouble in emerging victorious. t lily one more game, following the Franklin game, will be played by EarlthVD. Hanover will meet the Quakers or Reid field the week following on November 21. This will be the last ga ne of the season for both teams. A few new plays have been given out by roach Whiteside this week which will be tried out in scrimmage tonight although the regulars have been working on them all week. Coach Whiteside is not taking any chances with the Baptists and is warning his players against overconfidence which seemed to creep into the team following the overwhelming victory over Hose Poly last Saturday. He is working them particularly in developing a defense to meet the open style of play which Franklin has been using all season. Episcopal church supper Friday. 9-11-12 "Allie's" Dope KARL ALLISON GROUND FOR LIBEL. The Federal league has a fine case of libel against the newspaper that permitted one of its headline writers to state that "Feds will rival Naps in Cleveland." NEW WINTER SPORT. 'Jumping to the 'Feds seems to be the great winter sport of ball players. EVERYBODY JUMPS. Those who aren't inclined to jump are forced to do a little jumping every few days by newspHper folks. HORSESHOES TELL. Charley White, the Chicago lightweight, carries a small horseshoe in his pocket. He says it brings him luck. This may cause Jim Jeffries to wonder if Jack Johnson, another superstitious fellow, carried a horseshoe around with him in his boxing glove when Jim and Jack met four years ago. MAY GET BERTH. George VViltse. the veteran Giant pitcher, may become manager of the Syracuse (X. Y.) team next year in case the team's franchise is shifted from the New York State league to the International league. Syracuse is Wiltse's home. CRIME IN HEADLINE. "Welsh proved he was a real champion by defeating Wolgast," delares a headline!. If Welsh hadn't won liom the now third-rate Wolgast, it would have been a pugilistic crime. START INDOOR GAMES. Under the direction of Miss Elizabeth Sands, the girls of Garfield school started their winter indoor games yesterday. The girls are not allowed to indulge in basketball and other rougher games, bin group games have been r.nanged which allow greater numbers to get the benefit of the work. LESS MEAT IF BACK AND KIDNEYS HURT Take a glass of Salts to flush Kidneys if Bladder bothers you Drink lots of water. Eating; meat regularly eventually produces kidney trouble in some form or other, says a well-known authority, because the uric acid in meat excites the kidneys, they become overworked; get sluggish; clog up and cause all sorts of distress, particularly backache and misery in the kidney region ; rheumatio twinges, severe headaches, acid stomach, constipation, torpid liver, sleeplessness, bladder and urinary irritation. The moment your back hurts or kidneys aren't acting right, or if bladder bothers you, get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any good pharmacy; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will th'en act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia. and has been used for generations to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to normal activity; also to neutralize the acids in the urine so it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder disorders. Jad Salts cannot injure anyone; makes a delightful effervescent lithiawater drink which millions of men and women take now and then to keep the kidneys and urinary organs clean, thus avoiding serious kidney disease. .Advertisement

Charles Weeghman, owner of the Chicago Federal league team, and one of the principal backers of the outlaw organization, who Is negotiating with Garry Hermann, chairman of the National Baseball commission, for the purchase of the Chicago Cubs fro mCharles P. Taft. Mr. Hermann has admitted that Weeghman has an option on the Cubs.
NOTES ON MURPHY HOLD UKUB SALE Taft Holds Paper for $450,000 Which Blocks Transfer of Club. BY LEASED WIRE. CHICAGO, Nov. 12. Before August Herrmann can close the transfer of the Chicago National league baseball club to the syndicate headed by Chas. Weeghman, of the local Federal league club, some one will have to pay Chas. W. Murphy $450,000 in cash with 5 per cent interest from last March. This was learned early today on the eve of what was expected to be the final meeting to close the deal. Murphy's interest in the property consists chiefly in a half interest in the grounds. Since he has been out of active management Charles Taft has held the note for $450,000. Murphy's reason for his apparent dog-in-the-manger attitude was stated to be his belief "that the Cubs belong on the west side, and they've got to pay me before they move 'em." DILLON'S RECORD 0, K, Indianapolis Pug Wins in 107 Bouts. Tommy Dillon, Indianapolis pug,1 brother of the famous Jack Dillon, has ; a record a mile long.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 12 The anti-prize fight bill, which will shortly become a law, is to be tested on the ground of lacking constitutionality. A test case Is to be made on the logic of the act, which in every way prohibits professional boxing and anything more than four-round amateur contests tests.

LUCK SPOILS TRICK PLAY BY MICHIGAN IN HARVARD GAME Crimson Player Accidentally Blocks Execution of Bewildering Series of Fakes and Passes. BY FRANK G. MENKE. One of the prettiest plays seen on an
eastern gridiron this year was attempted by Michigan against Harvard.. It failed, but the fact that it failed was a bit of luck for Harvard. Michigan had the ball. Splawn dropped back about twelve or fifteen feet and signalled for the ball. He got it. At the moment the ball was passed the Michigan right end ran into Harvard territory and wheeled around in position to catch a forward pass. Splawn shoved back his arm, with the ball in his hand, as though he were about to throw it. In the meantime, Maulbetsch, who had been playing to the right of Splawn, suddenly jumped forward and took the ball from Splawn's outstretched hand, just as it seemed, that Splawn was about to throw it to the Michigan right end. End Takes Ball. Maulbetsch raced toward Harvard's right end, and had taken about four steps when the Michigan left end, running toward him, took the ball from him. For a fraction of a second it looked as if Michigan, with its trick play would make a big gain, but luck favored Harvard. Hardly had the Michigan end received the ball when he tripped over some Harvard men who were directly in front of him the same Harvard men who originally had rushed forward to tackle Splawn, and who didn't know where the ball was until the Michigan end fell over them. The action was so fast that it bewildered not only the spectators, but the Crimson warriors as well. It failed to succeed only because of ill luck. It's too bad Yost didn't try it again. It might have worked. It was the only real trick attempted during the game but it was a pretty one. NAPS DRAG SANTA TEAM JIM THIRD Tailenders Put up Hard Fight in Effort to Boost Percentage.

COACH SHIFTS GYIIII TO DUNK PLACE End Proves Good General New Men Give Regulars Hard Contest.
With a number of new men turning out for tryouts on the Independents, places are by no means cinched. Another workout was held last night. With the exception of fumbling the team as a whole looks to be in pretty good condition for the game Sunday. A number of new plays that were given out Monday night were worked on until they were fully mastered. Some of these will no doubt be worked out Sunday. They are expected to keep the Union City eleven guessing throughout the game. Gynn, who has been working out on the left extremity, was shifted to quarter last night and showed a knowledge of how the position should be played. He formerly played a star game for the Oakwoods of Dayton. This makes the team etra well fortified in this important position with both Duning and Gunn on hand. McLear, who has been on the hospital lis' for the past two weeks, was out and took part for a short time. He is a fast and steady half and will be with the team for the remainder of the games. Another candidate who is making the lace for the backfield positions interesting, is Nicodemus, who has been playing right end. Nic shows an aptitude for the half position and will irobably start at that position in the rext game. Next practice will be held Friday night at 7 o'clock. Saturday afternoon the team will meet at Athletic park. ARNTZ HEADS ELEVEN Independents Elect Fullback , to Captaincy. Arntz, husky fullback, was elected captain of the Independents last night by the unanimous vote of his teammates, who fully appreciate the excellent work he is capable of doing. Arntz is perhaps one of the best line j plungers that has ever graced a Richmond football team, being a hard man ; to stop when once he gets a hold on , tne Dan. ne is in every play, and is equally as strong on the defense. OMARS JRIM HIGH Monarch Lets Boys Show Rough Stuff. Mac Monarch's basketball warriors played the high school team a practice game last evening in the high school gym, and defeated them by an overwhelming score. The game from start to finish was a slam-bang affair, good team work being absent on both teams. Mac's team is scheduling some pretty stiff stuff for the winter, and most of the teams they will meet are considered pretty rough, and Mac had his bunch practice it on the high squad. m
