TIIE OMAHA' SUNDAY BEE: MAKCII 31, 1007. SPORTING GOSSIP OF WEEK Wetrn IenruB (irctvt Matter it Up in ths Air. Etill SH1VELEY LEAGUE CONTROLS TOPEKA CASE Islras Wfittn Aaaortatlan Ceaaent Way la Kaowi to an Ka. aa Capital lata Higher flrad af Raid Rail. t'p In the air.

It now appear that th Western league may not gt Topeka after all. Thla hna no rfarne to the desirability Of the deal, nor baa It any regard for tho merit of the aa. tt la almply that the magnate of claea to which the Western aaaoolatlon bolonga, have control over the clang A magnate, and have determined that Tnpka may not advance. The Shlvetey league haa voted to refuse to allow the sale of To-k peka; Dr. Shlveley any a he did not Influ-I ence the Vote, which was 7 to 1, and dla-Vrlalma any reaponalblllty for the refusal.

He aaya Topeka will be In tho Western aasolatlon or nowhere during the coming i ean, and that appear to end It. Thl on wo i ine Kink of baae ball law that appear 'n little atrange to the lay mind, but It la thW and all the Western league rnagnatoS can do I to abide by It. Here la the sltil.Ulon In a nutshell: Topeka wanta to got I out of the smaller rlrrnlt Intn blggerfone: the place In the bigger circuit i opeij; the men who run the little circuit have It In their power to say yes or no to iney nave sa.a no. under the law their say is final, and no way Is known tMiifTf i infill to give up me territory. All ragulrf menu of right and Juatlce are In favor r-f Topeka' being allowed to ad- I mTV.

This will make Topeka a "dead one" or the summer, and will probably end the Ife pf tha Western association, which has legended on Topeka a Ha main support. year, then, Topeka will be available i or the Western league without the aid or consent of the Western association, for 1 there will be no such league. Western Leaerae'a Position.

flome of the writera who have discussed thla question have put the Western league In the attttude of a bin; boy trying to take omethtng away from a smnller. This la not, oorrect. But If the amaller has something that Is of no use to him. and the bigger offers him value In full for It, the transaction would seem to be fair and the stnall boy wrong If ho did not sll. That la what the Western lnas-ue did.

It went to the Wetsern association and offered to purchase Topeka. The Western association refused to sell. Dick Cooley. who owns the Topeka franchise, tried to buy hi release, and was turned down. The ease was taken to the meeting of the National Association of Minor Leagues, and there the leagues below cls A voted to keep Topeka from advancing.

Then appeal was taken to the National commlaslon, and It wa sent back to the National board, aa being a matter that concerned the minor alone, but with a recommendation that the minor board change the rule a to drafting so that Topeka could be drawn by the Wetsern league. The minor board met. with Shlveley, who Is a member, present, and after a conference, at which Shlveley put hi own prtoe on Topeka, recommended that the Western association sell Topeka to the Wetsern league. The money wa ent by O'Nell to Shlvoley, but the little fellow refused to sell. In all thla con-'troVeray Western league has acted for the beat Interests of organised ball, and the association has acted against not only Its own Interests, but the Interest of all other club.

Refusal to sail a town to a higher class ts just the same refusal to sell a player. A team owner who. would prevent a player from advancing would be considered small, and a law exist whereby he can be compelled to part with the service of a town, hut the principle 1 the ame. The Western league haa acted fairly and the Western association unfairly throughout the entire controversy. Ix-Clab Clrealt Aarala.

The Western league ha prospered for two season with a alx-club circuit, and can tand It for another. The town now In the league are all live ones, and certain of support (or their team. Each ha a strong band of player to put Into the field at the opening of play, and while Topeka and Ht. Joseph will be missed, tho assurance of good ball for the patrons of the Western league 1 made tertaln by experience. It is not Impossible that Shlveley and hi follower will yet permit Topeka to be taken over, but It they don't the Western league will Joe; along with It lz-club circuit for another season, and will deal out DEATH IN THE AIRI PnumoaU Prevalent, and Why It Is So Easily Contracted A Common Every-Day Danger In Winter and Spring rV It Can Ba Prevented as Well as Cured by l(gLiiiaaMi Jt AVw Fmo4Emmhion af Cod Liver Oti fcr EwuUrmu GUARANTEED Under the Pood and Drug Act, June 30, 1906 Serial No.

John O'Malley, the progressive young philosopher, who is managing base ball affairs at Crelghton university this year, is gracefully bearing the laurels of success In his new departure. He has deviated from, the course of former managers, and Instead of playing the (mailer, colleges, which his team hav been accustomed to meet, he has secured the most excellent schedule that the Institution has ever procured. The' schedule Is not yet complete, but will be published In a few days. The first big game which the new schedule records Is the University of Dakota, Thla la. the fastest team In the atate and Its score against the Sioux City Western league team last, year waa enough to place It above amateurs.

Denny Sullivan-of the American association, who attended school there last year, played, the earlier part of the season with that team of school boys. The University of Missouri has been contracted for April 26. Thl pa Vie will be played In Omaha. Satisfactory terms have been received from the University of MInneaota, whom Crelghton will meet in MInneapoIla May, J7. Nothing oan be said definitely as yet concerning a gam with St.

Louis university. The university boys are determined to make a record in these games and place Crelghton athletics upon a higher shelf. If this season Is successful there is no doubt but that next season will see th best college team In the "Pig Nine" at Omaha, All the college boy need I support.

He was carried wver the rough ground for a block.

There is a slump In the demand for large touring car In France, England and Germany, due to the fact that thare Is but a limited number of men who can epare the time to get the full value cut of them, the expense of their operation and the drostlo law regulating their use In several continental countries. Economical driving, a much-sought end, can only be secured by using judgment, and where a motor possesses great flexibility, a point to be observed is that the hlifh speed ahould be used as much aa possible.

In order to do this well tin vers should learn their cars thoroughly and be able to handle them In crowded street. Some sincere and earnest motorist In the legislative halls ahould introduce a measure to tax draught horses, roadstera and thoroughbreds, according to their hauling power and speed. A serious effort to pans such a bill would be, a wholesome object lesson to those who seek to load unnecessary burdens of taxation upon motorists. Delaware's hew automobile law allows a speed of 12 miles an hour where buildings are less than low feet apart and of 20 miles an hour on country roads, and in towns where buildings are more than 100 feet from each other. Non-residents are allowed to use their cars In the state ten day each year without obtaining a license.

One of the mistake of e-ome American manufacturers has been that of not properly taking care of their retail customers, those that have made It a practloe to build up and maintain a direct relation between the factory and the user are In the strongest position today, and thla policy promisee) to be of even greater importance In the near future. Concerns that have been squeamish about giving extended demonstrations the last few weeks on account of the miserable weather conditions of the road have piled up trouble for themselves In the future, while those who have not only been willing to do ao but have been ready at the word have gained additional oc-nfldence from prospective buyers. Members of the automobile club are talking of reviving that organisation to ee if their influence cannot be made to help in getting some needed repairs to some of the bad pavements of Omaha. An effort will be made to have the paving repair plant started as soon as possible to plug up some of the many holes which are a menace to safe automoblllng. A motorcycle builder who keeps track of his factory's output says that about 10 per cent ore purchased by public service corporations, which find they furnish the most convenient and effective methods of transportation- for linemen and other me chanics.

Another V) per cent Is used by rural mall cariers. This latter field of use fulness should be a big one. aa there are over J8.0U9 rural carriers in the country. The vibrator spring and hammer should be adjusted so as to stand about one-Blx-teenth of an inch from the end of the coll when in normal position. The vibrator screw should touch the platinum contact on the vibrator spring.

The engine should then be started, and, if it misses, the acrew should be tightened a trille at a time until the engine will run without missing. When this point Is reached the set screw should be tightened. The Imperial Automobile club of Germany has devised a system of danger signals which may be read by a native of any land. Metal plates are erected 500 metera from the dangor point, the number displayed Indicating the special kind of peril, as follows: One, turn to the left; two, turn to the right; three, water canal gutter or gully; four, knoll or elevation; five, crosHroads; alx, railway crossing, and seven; double curve.
