DRANK TOGETHER.
New Tork, June 14. Tha next big
event on the racing calendar Is the
Suburban Handicap, for three-year-olda
and upward, which will be run at
fcheepshead Bay on Saturday next, the
cnenlnar dav of the Coney Island Jockey
iub's meeting. A good day and a fast
track are all that are needed to make
the race one of the beat that have ever
tuken nlane in this country.
A good day means that the attend
ance will be perhaps the largest ever
pe-ri at an eastern race track, while a
fat track means a small but select
lield. which will insure no rough, riding.
It can be safelv said that if the track
' la fast there will not be more than half
a dozen starters, with allowances lor
one or two more. The field that will
irobablv snort silk for .he race will ba

winner of the Metropolitan Handicap
nd the special race with Jean Beraud;
Harness & Brossman's black whirlwind.
Imp; W. C. Whitney's Jean Beraud and
Kilmarnock ; Kastin & Larrabie's Kin
ley Mack, winner of the Brooklyn Han
dicap, and J. E. Madden's Approval.
The other two that are said to be
rrobable starters are E. P. Simms' The
Kentuekian. which ran a mile at Mor
ris Park in 1:39. and M. Murphy's
Itaffaello. It is also said that the west
ern horse, John Bright, which, in one
of his wins at Louisville this spring,
beat the world's record for a mile and
a sixteenth, when he defeated Bangle
and Batten, will run. He has never been
seen in the fast, but those who have
seen him perform in the west say that
he is entitled to consideration, should
his owners decide to send him on for
the big event. Ethelbert, by his two
victories this season, has demonstrated
beyond a reasonable doubt that he is
the best horse in training today and one
of the best that have been racing in
years. His presence in the race will
keep many ownersfrom sending charges
to the post.
He will go to the post one of the
biggest favorites that have ever started
in this race, and racegoers in general
do not see how he can be beaten. Next
to him the Whitney pair are in demand.
Although "Ethelbert defeated Jean
Beraud with the greatest ease when
they met in the special race at Graves
end a week ago last Saturday, those
who follow races very closely expect
to see Jean Beraud' run a much better
race, on Saturday.
When Jean Beraud quit against Ethel
bert at. the end of six furlongs . many
of his greatest supporters gave him up
and stated that he was a sprinter pure
and .simp!. But he won them back
again by his performance in the Brook
dale Handicap, In which he came home
the winner from Imp, after making all
his own running.
Kilmarnock. Mr. AVhitney's second
string, is looked upon to furnish the
surprise. of the race. In his few starts
this season he has shown that a mile
and a quarter will suit him to a dot.
He has only 10 pounds to shoulder
itv the big event, and this will make
him a very dangerous horse. Kinley
Mack, Kastin & Larrabie's representa-
. tlve, will not lack for supporters in
the big race. His best races have been
run over the Sheepshead Bay track,
and he Is looked upon as a dangerous
factor, more so if the track should be
soft. It Is not known, whether Approval
is In shape again. Before ho met his
accident while being worked for the
Brooklyn handicap he had run a phe
rmmenHl mile, and on this his owner,
John Madden, made no secret of the
fact that he thought his horse would
be the winner. But Approval ran into
the fence and had to be declared out
of the Brooklyn. It cannot be seen
where Imp has a chance In the big race,
although she can be put down as a
certain starter. In th race against
Jean Beraud. in the Brookdale, the
latter beat her after making all his
own running, and with everything in
her favor, as he was conceding her
age and weight. She has been re
turned a winner only once this season,
in the 1'arkway handicap, and she was
very lucky to win that. Kinley Mack,
which she defeated, was much the bet-

Tom Sharkey and Bob Eitzsimmons
Had a Pleasant Chat.
New Tork, June 14. Tom Sharkey
nd Bob Fitzsimmons presented a novel
sight on Broadway this afternoon.
Thev strolled Into the Delavan house
about 3 o'clock and drank to each oth
er's health. Fitz had his left hand
swathed in bandages. The ex-sailor
asked Bob how he felt, and when the
latter" replied ' Bully," Sharkey seemed
apparently relieved.
"I notice you have had a good deal
Of hard luck lately," said Sharkey.,
"res," replied Ifitz, good-naturediy,
"I have had enough to make a dozen
men quit. But that is fate, you know,
and it is no us to grumble."
"Is vour hand getting better, and
when do you expect to light again?"
Tom inquired.
Fitz answered that ha had hoped to
be able to put on the gloves pretty
goon, but could not say when. He
thought it quite likely that he would
be able to step into the ring about
August, but not before then.
"Will you promise me a match as
soon as you are ready to scrap again?"
Shai'key asked. - .
Fitz replied that he was always pre
nnred to meet any one. but thought
that Ruhlin or Jeffries should receive
the preference.
"If, however," continued Bob, "you
whip Ruhlin arid Jeffries does not face
me I will certainly give you the first
crack."
Here the conversation turned to other
topics and then the pair parted. Just
as Fitz reached the door he was met
by Gus Ruhlin,, who cordially greeted
the Cornishman.

FOR THE
"Fan" Manager Finds His Pampered
Players Anything but Grateful.
Pittsburg, Pa., June 14. A shake-up in
the Pittsburg team is promised. Presi
dent Dreyfuss will invade the eastern
league tomorrow in search of material.
A telegram from Boston says Dreyfuss
is due in Sorimrfield. Mass.. and that h
will look at players all along the lino.
Dreyfuss is fighting mad. The loss of
Monday's game in New York provoked
him into a declaration which set the
boys thinking, Eitid he said they had
played "rotten;" that they had put the
game on a platter and forced New York
to take it against her will. He also told
them Something was about to drop.
The news that Dreyfuss had' started
in- search of new players causes uneasi
ness among certain old players. In New
York President Dreyfuss had announc
ed that he would take the entire club
to a theater that night If they won the
game. They did not win, but Dreyfuss
said the theater invitation held good:
that the club would go from the theater
to the train for Boston. The only play
ers to accept the club president's invi
tation were: Williams, Leach, O'Con
nor, Zimmer and Leever. This has caus
ed some little comment in Pittsburg.
Four of the players who did not go with
Dreyfuss to the theater almost missed
the train at midnight. Pitcher Leever,
the club's stand-by, left Boston today
for his home, Goshen, where his sister
is dying.

Ed. Seivers, a Kingman Boy's Rise in
the Base Ball "World.
Wichita, June 14. Ed Seivers, former
ly a Kingman boy, has just signed with
Detroit to play ball in the American
league. Last year Seivers played with
the team at London, Ont., and made
quite a reputation as a pitcher and he
is now signed to twirl the ball for De
troit. Seivers is a we31 known ball player in
this part of the country. His first semi
professional work was done in King
man about five years ago. Three years
ago he played part of the season with
the Kagles and was considered one of
their best players. Since then he has
been playing most of the time in the
Canadian leagues.

There may be batters who can hit the
ball harder than McGraw, and make
more long line hits, but there is none in
the league who has a better eye for a
pitched ball than the wiry little bundle
of nerves 'that plays third base for St.
Louis. A pitcher has got to be excep
tionally good to get him even to strike
at a bad ball. He shifts his position
constantly in the box, so that the pitch
er finds it almost an impossibility to
get a line on the plate. One moment he
is up in front, the next back to the
furthest corner, but wherever he makes
his stand be assured that when the ball
comes up he will be facing it correctly
to see if it is over the plate. Now he is
one of the best men on the infield in the
business. He can pick up hard hits with
the best of them, is a strong thrower
and not a bit afraid of the base-runners
who come tearing down his way.
President Brush has the only team in
the league with a salary list of less than
$40,000. The average cost of running a
team through the season is from $60,000
to $90,000. Of the eight clubs, New York
pays the highest and the Reds the low
est. Washington Post.
Brooklyn has signed a coming young
ster from the Chester (Pa.) club. His
name is Bert Everson.
A glance over the statistics recently
compiled shows that Philadelphia and
St. Louis are the only teams which have
not drawn blanks. Brooklyn has been
goose-egged the greatest number of
times by Philadelphia, St. Louis and
Chicago.

Remarkable Curative Properties of a
Remedy for Indigestion and
S.omach Weakness.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, a prep
aration for tne cure of dyspepsia and
the various forms of indigestion and
stomach trouble, owes its great success
as a cure for these troubles to the fact
that it is prepared for disease and weak
ness of the stomach and digestive or
gans only, and is not recommended or
advised for any other disease.
It is not a cure-all, but for any stom
ach trouble It is undoubtedly the safest,
most sensible remedy that can be ad
vised with the prospect of a permanent
cure. It. is prepared in tablet form,
pleasant to taste, composed of veg
etable and fruit essences, pure pepsin
and Golden Seal, every one of which act
effectively in digesting the food eaten,
thereby resting and invigorating the
weak stomach; rest is-nature's cure for
any disease, but you cannot rest the
stomach unless you put Into it some
thing that will do its work or assist in
the digestion of food.
That is exactly what Stuart's Dys
pepsia Tablets do, one grain of the
digestive principle contained in them
will digest- 3,000 grains of meat, eggs
or similar wholesome foods, they will
digest, the food whether the stomach
is in working order or not, thereby
nourishing the body and resting the
stomach at the same time and rest and
nourishment is nature's cufe for any
weakness.
In persons run down in flesh and ap
petite these tablets build up the
strength and increase flesh, because
they digest flash-forming food which
the weak stomach cannot do; they in
crease the flow of gastric juice and pre
vent fermentation, acidity and sour,
watery risings.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets can be
found at all drug stores at 50 cents per
package.
