Vlgran, president, said that he would try to have the matter definitely settled so that the teams could make an early start this season. The Exhibition park is preferred by the league managers, but If Richmond has either league or Bemi-pro ball, they -will be unable to obtain the diamond. Dr. Smith of Easthaven, has been asked to Give the Easthaven diamond on Saturdays over to the league. The project of building a permanent diamond in the river bottom will have to be given up, Vlgran said, as there was no place large enough to lay a diamond. League Up Against It.

THREE-r CERTAINTY FOLLOWING MEETING

CHICAGO, April 7. The Three-I league became a certainty as a result of the meeting Sunday afternoon at the Palmer house. Five of the six newly organized clubs posted forfeits of $2,000 each to guarantee they would finish. Terre Haute, Evansville, Peoria, Moline and Bloomlngton were the clubs to post sureties with President A. R. Tearney. Rockford, the sixth city, was allowed until Wednesday to post its" forfeit. A tentative schedule outlined, calls for the season to commence May 7 and close Labor Day. President Tearney was empowered to add two more cities to the circuit if he deems it advisable. A player limit of thirteen men was decided upon with a maximum salary roll of $2,000. Mordecai Brown, of the old Chicago Cub machine, will manage the Terre Haute club. Brown and its owner, J. J. Clsary, were present at the meeting. Jack Ryan represented Peoria and President Asplan and Johnny Nee came from Evansville. J. J. Hackett represented Bloomington and Tom D. Reber and J. H. Herbert from Rockford, were present. Moline was represented bq George E. Hughes and Hugh Thoran. All the minor leagues are optimistic concerning the prospects for the year. They claim there is not a weak city in the league and expect the game to be put on a better basis than ever be

fore. .With r the return .of old ball players from the service and the clubs backed by fans' associations, the chances for a team 'blowing up" in the middle of the season are reduced to a minimum.

Pimples, scaly itching skin, rashes, burning sensations and Scrofula denote with unfailing certainty a debilitated, weakened and Impure state of the blood. The trouble may have been in your blood from birth, but no matter how you were infected, you must treat it through the blood. It is a blood disease. You must use S. S.

the blood. It soaks through the system direct to the seat of the trouble acting as an antidote to neutralize the blood poisons. It revitalizes the red blood corpuscles, increases the flow so that the blood can properly perform its physical work. The dull sluggish feeling leaves you the complexion clears up.

GONNERSVILLE WANTS DISTRICT TRACK MEET

Connersville wants the district track meet. Principal Humke of the Connersville High school, informed Manager Vernon, of Richmond High school over the telephone Saturday evening. Principal Humke called Vernon relative to scheduling a dual meet at Connersville between the Richmond High school thinly clads and the Connersville track team, and upon learning that the Red and White had a

full booking, asked if it would be

league will be re-organized this spring ' and will start its regular season next year on the Coliseum floor. Even if the pastern players do not reorganize the old Western league here next year, Bradfleld feels that a team can be chosen from the City league that can compete from other cities. Dayton has Intimated that a team will be in the field next year, and Muncie, Anderson and Newcastle probably will bloom out with teams early next fall. A large crowd is predicted for both games thus far scheduled, and plans are being made to add another team to the string, making four local polo trams out for the city title. In case another team materializes, a date will be set later in the week for the playing of another game. The lineups of the two teams that meet Wednesday night follow.

district meet

Manager Vernon informed Humke that if Connersville obtained the meet for May 17 it would be agreeable to the Richmond High school, but that thl3 school practically had been selected by A. L. Trester to hold the meet. As Connersville has at least two large fields on which such events might be held, and as the state school classic will be held at Earlham this year, Secretary Trester, it is thought, may turn the district track field meet over to the Connersville high school. Connersville can stage this meet at the old fair grounds or at the Athletic park which that city has preRpntpri to the school. In enso Con

nersville obtains the meet, Richmond

track athletes will travel to Connersville to compete before entering the

Something of the same sort comes to the style-careful woman of Richmond when she learns that "the world's greatest style show" is on the way. During weeks and months, Richmond merchants have devoted themselves whole-heartedly to the staging of this semi-annual production. Buyers have flitted : across the

seas, have defied every obstacle of war and war's aftermath to make the Third Semi - Annual Style Show a never - to-be -forgotten event.

You would never know there had been a war so rich, varied and profuse are the displays. And at last the curtains are drawn, the public admitted. The greatest show of all has actually arrived. ' All hail to the great producers, the managers of Richmond stores responsible for this gorgeous spectacle. Under their able direction a superb success was assured.
