Hood's Sarsaparilla relieres all the distressing symptoms of dyspepsia because it promotes the muscular action of the stomach and intestines, aids nature in the manufacture of her own digestive secretions, are far better than any artificial pepsin, unlocks the bowels, stimulates the kidneys and tones up their mucous membranes. So prompt is its effect in many cases that it seems to haye almost a magic touch. Begin to take it NOW.

President Hart of Chicago Discussies th Lajoia Cast. Chicago, April 29. President Hart the Chictgo National League club and a member ofthe leagoe's governing triumvirate, said today of the Pennsylvania decision. in the Lajoie case: The injunction cannot be circumvented. Talk of carrying-the case to-the United States.

Supreme trOUrt is ridiculous, as the Pennsylvania Supreme court is" the court cf last resort irf that state." Speaking of the- Missouri cases, Mr. Hart said: "The National league -is indifferent to an adverse decision in Missouri or any other Losing in any other state; we can simply go into Pennsylvania and seenre injunctions which will prevent players of any club playing in Pennsylvania and Philadelphia and Pittsburg, two important ball cities, are in that state. You may be prepared to see a long list of Injunctions. It may be that the players we go after will not strengthen our teams much, but the action wilt have a good effect on the future crop of players. Some of the men who have Jumped we do not care about, buch men as Daly and Jones, of the White Stockings will be enjoined, I believe." Mr.

Hart stated that the contract to which the Pennsylvania decision holds the players was drawn by the attorney for the Players Protective association. NOT YET DECIDED. St Louis National League Cases Went Orer Until To-Day. St. Louis, April 29.

Arguments of counsel on the petition of prohibition of St. Louis National League Baseball club to restrain Harper, Wallace and Held-rick from playing with the St. Louis American League club, were heard today by Judges Talty and Fisher Jointly.

Attorney Johnson, for the American league, did not deny the authenticity' of the men's signatures to National league contracts, but declared that the contracts in question were unconstitutional because one-sided.

RULING ISN'T EQUITABLE. President Ripley Thus Express es Himself in Regard to the Citrus Fruit Case. Los Angeles, April 29. Presldenv Ripley is quoted as saying that the Santa Fe. railroad will probably not comply with the recent ruling of the interstate commerce commission in the Los An geles citrus fruit case, in which It waa held that the practice of the Santa Fe and Southern Pacific railways of taking into their own hands the matter of select ing the route by which fruit shinmenta from Southern California to the East shall be sent is illegal.

"Our course in regard to the ruling of the Interstate commerce commission In the citrus fruit case will depend on what the lawyers advise," said Mr. Rinlev. "I do not expect that we will comply with tne ruling, but will let the courts decide whether we are right or if the fruit ship pers are right. I do not think the ruline of the commission is eauitable. The mil- roads make a rate of $1.25 a hundred on citrus fruit to Chicago and the same rate to New York.

In order to make this rate we must have satisfactory arrangements with our connections east. "We can not comply with this ruline and attempt to handle the fruit business. Be fore the railroads adopted the svstem of routing shipments the business was in a constant state of demoralization. Such it appears were in the habit of sendine their fruit over any road whose over-zealous agents would give them a few dollars rebate on each car and we muet either cut rates to meet the sort of competition or give up handling the business if we do not take the routing into our own hands." MR. LONG WANTS TO KNOW He Cables for a Complete Re port of Arrest of Chicago Crew at Venice.

29. Secretarv Lone has cabled directly to Captain Dayton of tne cnicago at Venice for a statement of the factB connected with the arrest of some of the officers of that ship at Venice. So far there has been no official report on the subject to either the state or the navy department; a fact which causes the officials here to express surprise, as they feel that the matter is of sufficient gravity to warrant an active exhibition of interest. The statements so far are made throueh the press dispatches and are not sufficiently precise to enable the officials here to form a judgment as to th ammmt nf turpitude involved in the officers' conduct and they are disposed to await official advices before expressing an opinion. It is fully expected that as a matter of comity.

ior no other reason, the Italian authorities will turn the prisoners over to Captain Dayton upon his promise that they shall be dealt with aoo United States naval regulations, for an endorsement of the sentences of confine ment in jail, would create a very disagtec- aDie impression. Indigestion is the direct cause of dlsMsa that kills thousands of persons annual ly. Stop the trouble at the start with little PRICKLEY ASH BITTERS; it strengthens the stomach and aids digestion. RESIGNED WHEN HER PLACE WAS IN DANGER. Special to the Capital.

Leavenworth, Anril 29.fiB Dolphin tendered her resignation, as superintendent of the Leavenworth public schools today and Prof. D. W. Kendrirk of Newton, has been as her successor. Prof.

Kendrick came here yesterday and met a number of the members of the school board and before night ten of. the twelve signed an agreement to em ploy him, when they organized in Au gust. On learning of this Miss Dolphin decided to resign without delay. Miss Dolphin has been suDerintendont of the schools for six years. Prof.

Ken. drlck has been superintendent of the public schools at Clay Center, Junction City and mew ton. Kan. The chance in superintendents is largely due to a desire on the part of the directors for a man sunoMn. tendent and some friction in management of high school matters.

ARMY IS NOT ALL CRUEL Few Instances of Excesses, He Told Yale Students, Does Not Signify Guilt of Whole Army-Friar Question. New Haven, April 29.

Governor General William H. Taft of the Philip pines, was well received this evening when he addressed about 2,000 students, profes sors and others in College street hall at Yale. He was introduced by President Hadley. Governor Taft reviewed the same ground as that covered by his evidence before th onai ana iiouee committees. With re spect to the evidence as to the water cure and other cruelties, Governor Tan; said that it must be remembered that the army of 'forty to sixty thousand the guerrilla warfare carried on by the Insurgents, had to be divided Into five hundred posts, many of which were second lieutenants or captains, and sometimes sergeants, and that the detach ments in the field far exceeded the num ber of posts; that this explained how it Was possible with many engagements daily, that each personal instance of such abuses might occur without typifying the of the army, which, on the whole, was humane and considerate towards the natives.

It was not to be expected that in an army or sixty thosuand men there should not be brutes or weak men who would yield to the temptation of arbitrary power and the provocation hardly to be understood of the ambush and treachery, savagery and danger of the Filipino guerrilla warfare as it was practiced. With respect to the trial of General 'Smith In Samar, the speaker said as the matter was subjudice and had happened eLjice he left the islands he did not feel justified In making a public statement The Inadequacy of. short cable dispatches in giving a true picture of a situation required a delay until the whole record could be forwarded and the findings re viewed by the President. In speaking of the relations between the government and the church in the island the speaker said that under the Snanlsh rule the church and the state had had their interests so Inextricably associated and fused that It was a work of the nicest and most difficult character to separate the Interests of the one from the other, and yet those interests must be separated In order that the church and state in the Philippines should be brought to the condition required by our traditions and sys- tern of government. It was an ndlspensable condition preced- nt to bringing about the separation that there should be some conference between the church authorities and the representatives of his government with a view to an amicable adjustment.

Whether'this conference should be had between a' representative of the 1'nited States government and a representative of the great corporation of the Catholic church, or 'should be a conference between a representative of this government and the head of the church was a mere matter of method and of facility of complete settlement. It could not of course involve the establishment of diplomatic relations with the Vatican, but if held would be a conference made necessary by the unusual circumstances of a transfer of sovereignty from a country closely associated with the church to one which must have the in- tcrcsts of the church and state separate.

He Is Trying to Get the Little Out-Fielder to Desert Nichols. Denyer, April their oft-repeated assertions that they would not countenance contract jumoihe: the Amerl- 'can association magnates are now making an attempt to disrupt some of the Western league teams by! inducing their players to desert. The best proof of this assertion is a telegram received last night by Irving Waldron, the little right fielder of the Kansas City team. If was from George Te-beaii, mahagerjof the Louisville American association cluo, and-offered Waldron $350 a month if he would cult Nichols and join the Louisville Colonels at once. Waldron wired back imediately, stating that he was perfectly satisfied with his berth in the Western league and in organized ball and did not care to receive any more offers from American' association teams.

The little fielder turned the Tebeau telegram over to Manager Charley Nichols, who will keep it as a memento of the event. i Manager Nichols only laughed when questionedabout Tebeau's attempt to get Waldron to jump. I think most of my men are perfectly satisfied with the treatment they are receiving and are going" to receive and I think they will follow Wal-dron's example in turning down such They know that organized, ball is the best for them. Waldron is not. jthe only one who has been aproached, by the way.

Tebeau has always been anxious to sign Waldron. He 'was after him in the East at the time that I. landed him." VYATKINS MAY SHIFT TEAM. Can't See Chance to Maks Money in Indianapolis Without Sunday Games. Indianapolis, April 29.

It is now settled that Sunday baseball games will not be allowed in Indianapolis this season any more than they have been in the past, and the American association magnates are feeling rather glum in consequence. President Watkins of the Indiananolis club is in especially low spirts, and in an interview yesterday all but acknowledged that the outlook for the Hoosiers making expenses without Sunday games was so poor that he was considering a plan to shift the team to some other town. Of course he said that he had no intention of weakening the association, but in his opinion a change to Dayton or Grand Rapids would be for the better under the circumstances. The report of the large crowds that witnessed the Sunday games in Columbus, Toledo and Louisville had a depressing effect upon Mr. Buell and Gear of the Kansas City team.

They said there was no doubt the association would Insist upon having eight cities that will play Sunday games next year. They did not directly state that Indianapolis might be dropped, but said that this city would have to have Sunday ball. A DEFEAT FOR WASHBURN. Topeka Flayers Lost to the Nebraska University Nine.
