I'asehall's affairs may ! aired in the courts aain by stciif of tho Föderal league magnates w ho lainu d today tbnt tho merger plan was an unfair one ami took rare of only a certain clique within the Federal league. Tle action of the Palt.more 1'ederal represontati os--S. S. Janney. attorney, and Harry !ol Inian. sec rotary of tlio (lnl in refusing to participate further in the TederalI ntornationa 1 conforonco. and then MUittlncr the town, was like the hurlingof a iM.mbsholl into tho ranks of thf peace adviM-atos. They are plainly worried and seem to fear that tlw Baltimore people may kick tho props from under tho peace platform. It would not he surprising if the Baltimore crowd, which claims that the merger was affected without its otTiclal consent, lined up ,iher dispruntled Federal I.'aiairrs and sought the aid of the courts in dissolving tho peace pact. It is certain that if the Halting. re people do nt set w hat they rail a "s'liiaie deal" thov will

refuse to auroe t the -, ithdrawal ofi

"(live me an attendance of 5,000 at the opf-nintr ame, and I'll take a chare o," ait'. Ktl Smith at the meetit.k' of ;rion interc-ted in a Central h-;truo hasehall franchise at the Chamber of Commerce Wednesday ni'ht. .Smith spoke to the point, and his sentiments were hacked up hy men inlluontial in husiness and professional c'.rcleH of South Hend. If the tone of the meeting Wed-nc.-day an he taken for anything South IJenl will have a Central l-a'-ruo hasehall cluh for IMG. Smith will he the owner, and there, will he onsiih-rahle interest in the sport. Friday niht will loll the tale. "Wild Uill" Hsskk. Letter known nowaday as William 11. Kssick, owner of the crand Kapids franchi.je; Harry Stahlhefer. president of the i:ansville luh. and I-:. W. Dickerin. president of the Central league, will he in South Hend at that time and a meeting is scheduled for S o'clock at the Chamher of Commerce. At Wednesday's meeting affairs general wore discussed ami a committee of the whole ."elected to secure an attendance for the Friday r'"ht fathering. I'nt husi;usm preth.aiinatcd and with K. I. Dicey pvef idin eonsiderahle ground was covered hy those anxious to return the national pastime to South Ilend's pate. Ttt Nell .,,000 Tickets. Lohhy talk was to the effect the rale of ."t.ot'O hooster day tickets for the opening Käme at a dollar a throw, would he a simple matter in the face of the demand for a

baseball club here. That the Friday meeting would show the citizens of South Hend anxious to the point of subscribing in advance for a required number of the pasteboards was also an impression held by several prominent men. Smith rapped his coat FUUKestlvely, "I've pot the franchise with me." he said, in the course of his talk, "and all 1 want Is the assurance of support from South Hend." Twenty men present at the informal Fathering volunteered their services in Ketting out a bumper crop of hall fans for Friday night. Three hundred name.4 were divided amongst the workers, aivl an assurance made that these 300 would he Kotten out if at all possible. Committees will be appointed Friday to take charge of the sale of tickets. Dickerson Well Known. DIckerson's presence here is expected to increase interest in the securing of a local franchise in the reorganized Central league. A newspaper man. and for years' sporting editor of the Grand Kapids Herald. Dickcrsoh is a man well acquainted with every hitch and kick of the baseball game, He waf at one time connected with the Southern Michigan league and is considered an eflicient executive. Hsslck and Stahlhefer are well known here. "Wild Hill." pitcher eccentric at one time, and brought to South Hend by Ed Smith, has many friends in these parts'. Stahlhefer has been connected with Central balldom for some years. All that Is required if the spirit on the part of this city, and the purchase by fans of sufficient tickets to assure Smith a start and he will make the run. From the consensus of opinion, at least those represented at Wednesday's meeting want baseball, and want Smith to have charge of the local club. As he says. "It is up to South Hend to show a desire and he will do the rest."

TOURNEY AT GARY Hi2:li Schmd Quintets Will C'oniiH tc at Stool I'll jr. Cities to receive the state huh school sectional basket ball tournaments have been announced and tho city to receive the northern Indiana tourney is Gary. Iist yeaY the tournament was held in Hammond, and South Hend was favored fr it this year but at the last minute the state Hih .-hool Athletic association awarded the meet to Gary. In a way Gary deserves the tournament, for Gary has always turned out first, 'lass teams, and has the proper floors for staging it. The Gary Y. M. C. A., a magnificent gyn. the Frohel and the Knw-rson schools complete the floors opportune for playing. Iist year South Hend defeated Gary here, but later was defeated at the steel city. When the tournament y;uj held at Hiimmon 1 South P.end and Gary locked horns In tho first clash scheduled and th locals won 2 4 to lß. In the second game of the tournament the lo.-al team m-tt defeat at the hands of Valparaiso.

WE HAVE SAVED SCORES FROM THE SURGEON'S KNIFE AFTER THEY HAD BEEN GIVEN UP BY OTHER DOCTORS, AND WE CAN DO THE SAME FOR YOU IF YOU WILL GIVE US THE CHANCE.

' "1 , . I ( . - ' , .( . - - . -

DR. XV. M. IAUlltl, ConHultinff I'ftytirlan; 20 yearn experience. I e and trrat you personally each time you rail.

United States Senator Weeks, in a recent speech b

fore the senate, clearly sets forth the fact that thousands of surgical operations are uselessly being performed simply for the sake of collecting a fancy fee. In a recent address given by Dr. Jno. M. T. Finney, a noted authority of Philadelphia, he asserts that a large percent of surgical operations are signal failures and are absolutely uncalled for. Dr. Overall of Chicago, another noted authority, claims that injury once done the prostrate by the knife is irreparable. Keyes, perhaps the most noted authority in this country, says: "There is but one condition calling for an operation, and that is the failure of all other treatments." Still many doctors claim that the only way to cure the diseases of our specialty is by the use of the knife.
