HEREDITARY BLOOD P0I50H
Scrofula i? a disease manifested
usually by a swelling and ulceration
of the glands, especially about the
neck. It is almost entirely hereditary
in its origin, being the dregs or re?
mains of some specific blood poison.
Where the blood is greatty weakened
with the scrofulous poison, the disease
attacks other portions of the system'
besides the glands, and then we see its
effects in weak eyes, poorly developed
bodies, running sores and ulcers, skin
diseases, especially on the scalp, ca
tarrhal troubles, etc. Scrofula usually
makes its appearance in childhood,
though manhood or womanhood may
be reached before the poison pro?
gresses to the stage of outward mani?
festation. S. S. S. is the one real cure
for Scrofula. It is a blood purifier
without an equal, and it cures this
destructive blood poison by removing
every trace of the infection from the
circulation. S. S. S., in addition to
cleansing and
purifying the
blood, assists the
stomach and di?
gestive members
in the creation of
new blood cor?
puscles and other
nourishing mat?
ter for the circu?
lation. S. S. S. increases the resistive
powers of the sj'stem and by strength?
ening and building up the vitality,
allows nature to make a perfect and
lasting cure. Book describing the
disease and any medical advice sent
free to nil who write.

HOUSE, NOT PLAYERS,
WORRIES SULLIVAN
Looking for a Dwelling in Which to Live Both?
ers More Now Than Spike-Shoed Gentry,
Since Mrs. Sullivan Wants a Home.
Little Doing Yesterday.
BY GUS MAIUIKRT. .
James \V. Sullivan, now of Rieh- |
inoiid, If yon please, is worried about!
getting a winning team for Richmond*
hot exactly worried, maybe, but a triilc
npprchensive. Remember that he Is
compelled to start to work on a lot
of youngsters as yet unknown. But
confidentially, of course, James W, Sul?
livan Is a great deal more perplexed
over Unding a house for his family
that he is over getting likely candi?
dates for a baseball team. At least
this his is present condition.
.Mrs. James W. Sullivan, who, like
circumstances prevailing generally,
though Infrequently admitted, comes
pretty nearly ruling the Sullivan
household, and she has put her foot
down, kindly but firm, on living in a
hotel, even though it happens to bo one.
of tho variety run by Colonel Murphy.
She wants a house, a homo, and that's
Just what James ~W. Sullivan was
looking fur all day long yesterday.
In the morning he spent a short
while In Owner Rradloy's office, but
there was very little done. In fact,
Mr. Bradley was so engaged in ofhoi
business matters that he had little
time to talk baseball. Sullivan sal
around and read his mall, ami along
about noon he and the local magnate
took a trip out to the hall park, to
look over the grounds which .loo Iletts
icr lias fixed up in such good Shape.
Multen Suggestion About Park.
Sullivan eyed the work and then
started malting suggestions. You sec
he went through Just this same ex?
perience last year in Lincoln. They
had a skinned diamond out there, an?i
he hail to superintend laying tlie turf,
sind for that reason he can come pretty
nearly telling what. Is needed.
At the local park, while there was
nothing which was of an incurable na?
ture disclosed, he did find many things
which needed changing. For instance;
he found that the left field sloped to?
ward the diamond, which meant thai 1
the skinned part between second and
third bases would be Inundated when?
ever a rain came. Just a suggestion
was all that was necessary and the
riirt which is needed to fill in has
been bought. Then there was a slight
depression between tho same two
bases. This will be filled.
It was tho intention of the manager,
to have tlie diamond so graded that
it will bo drained to third and first
bases. Taps will be placed at these
two points to carry off tho water if. or
rather when; It rains. There will be
other suggestions before the time to!
play ball comes, but Sullivan Ij more!
than favorably impressed with tho
grounds, and thinks that he will have
a pork of which the owner of the team
and the people of Richmond can be
proud when the season begins.
Sullivan Wiis In Virginia I.entjne.
?Sullivan is not exactly a stranger to
Richmond, Way back In 1S96 he came
here as n member of the Roanoke Club
of tho Virginia League. That was In
tlie days when Jake Wells was making
Iiis debut also. Sullivan, bad been
farmed to Roanoke by Cincinnati. He
stayed in the Magic City Just one
year, when he wont to Cedar Rapids,
Iown- During tho course of an auto?
mobile ride yesterday afternoon, made
possible through the courtesy of B. A.
Blenncr. ho told this much of his-life's
history.
To look at the man yo.u would never
think that he had been living long
enough to have a baseball experience
hordering closely on to twoscore
years. Ho is so obviously a. young man
that when lie talks of things which to
us youngsters appear as ancient his?
tory, wo sit around and wondor.
Vesterday afternoon ho was nt the
ball park again with Owner Bradley
talking over many things, all having
to do with the improvomont of the
grounds.
"Just as soon as I can got a house
nr a fiat and get settled like a nativn
I want to put on my uniform and
come out here and got to work on
some of the local talent asking for a
try-out. I understand that thoro arc
three or four young men in this town
who look like they have the goods. 1
hopo so. Anyway they will he given
every chance to show me."
Bradley I* a Hoy for a Day.
1 have never seen a happier mnn
than \V. R. Bradley wan yeRtcrday. Ho
fairly beamed. Just a triflo excited
over tho arrival of his now manager,
and wanting every one to know that
he had full confidence in the. man
Whose terms ho accepted, bo danced
around like a boy out of school, trylnp
to explain everything at-once and be?
ing considerably hampered by the
broad smiles which seemed to express
more than tho words ho was able to
utter.
So far as actual progress wao oon
corned thoro wan little doing yester?
day. There was no use to try. Vy\ B
Rradley, for all apparent purposes, was
a boy again yesterday. Ho had or
short trousers, would have munched an
applo core, played hookey from school
or looked for tho knothole In the
fence around the ball park. Just as
greedily as he would have done?well
not so many years ago at that.
To-day the real work will begin. Thor
the two men who will be most Inter?
ested in the Richmond baseball team
will get their hends together and dc
pome figuring sis to what men will br
brought to Richmond and what tner
will bo left at home.
YVnllncc nnd Riirkn Were Expected;
As regards that Rurko and Wallace
report which I had In my story yes?
terday, Sullivan did tell me In this of?
fice that he would bring these two men
hero to play hall, but later, after con?
sultation with Mr. Bradley, It was dc
elded that it would be Inadvisable to
have them report. unless It was de?
termined to raise tho salary limit. Re?
member that Richmond still owns the
men.
Sullivan also told me yesterday that
there was one man he was pretty sure
of. He is Everett, who wan taken to
Lincoln by Sullivan for a try-out, but
didn't quite measure up and was let ro
to tho Hannibal club of the Missouri
League. The thinks well of the man.
sind believes that ho will make a
great fielder for Richmond.
Rut what Sullivan is really worried
about is a house. So If you see one
walking down the street, not working
and looking for a job. lot him know.
More Sulllvanlsms as they develop.
SHAFTS FROM SPORTLAND
By GUS MALBERT.
What's become of that llannon
Clarke-Booker league to bo established
somewhere near Norfolk'.'
Did any one anywhere ever hoar of
? ha t combination starting anything
but an argument?
Now if they were going to make
peanuts tiio standard of value ami use
them for purchasing tickets at the
gales it would be different.
Sullivan said Richmond reminded
him so much of Lincoln?it was sa
different.
Incidentally lie allowed that Rob
!J n glaub would not find the road
strewn with dandelions when he ar?
rived in the Nebraska town to take
charge of the ball club.
The why that fellow Sullivan doe;?
smile makes?woll, it's good he's
married.
Talking of ball clubs, Richmond's
now manager said that he thought a
nice house built for three--his wife,
daughter and self?would be welcome.
In fact, to the credit of Owner Brad?
ley bo ft said, he has kept the local
scribes pretty weil supplied with aU
that has been jjolng on, and aside from
some few releases and other details
Iii ere is little for tho new man to
tell.
Tie has been kept busy since hi?
arrived shaking hands witli enthusi?

tion.
Charlie liabb expects to arrivo in

terday that Ii? had Intended renchlns
liefe on yesterday, but hadn't thought
about It being the thirteenth until he
read it in The Times-ids patch, and
then he hurried along to get hero unu
day ahead of the hoodoo.
As It was, ho made me a youknow
what by only about seven hours, arid
no one would rail a man a youknow
what for a mere seven hours!
Old fan in Chicago writes to th?!
Tribune suggesting that a code of
ethics be established in basebdlldom.
Ho says that since there are so many
men engaged In the sport, and as these
men influence so greatly the Juvenil?;
population, they should' be made to
bo clean on and off tho ball held?men?
tally and morally.
As an illustration of his -point ho
Cites a small boy who was walking
along with his cap sllghly awry.
Tho boy wits accosted by a pedes?
trian, who said:
".Son, isn't your cap a little tipsy?"
To which "Voting America replied: "I
I don't know. .loo Tinker wears his
that way, and 1 guess he knows."
The code of ethics Idea is all right,
so far as tho public is concerned, but
where it will fail Is in that it takes
tnpney out of the. pockets of tho man?
agers" and Imposes duties which no
man will willingly assume.
The code will therefore die peace?

i Wonder what people will say when
[they read Wolgnst's Intimation that
j his bout with Brown in Philadelphia
wan a frame-up?
Tho nerve of that fellow is surpass-;
Ing. Tirst he stalls with that bum
! tin, which few believe was really bum,
and then he attempts to fool the pco
| pie by keeping a silly grin on bis faco
until Brown knocked It off, and now
ho comes with the. frame-up pipe.
I hope Brown licks him in New York,
hut even if he rloes not, I will never
believe that Wolgast is a real boxer.
He Is a backwoods Michigan rough
house artist, and ho will remain one
to the finish.

jeant Sherry stated that tho crowd
.va3 the most disorderly with which
hey ever had to deal.
"Fifty men there." said Major Wer
aer afterwards, "would not have been

Followed Street Car.
Sergeant Sherry testified how ho
had been called on to protect and
I escort several young women out of
:he danger zone. Ho stated that he,
?'Ith- two others, boarded n street car
vlth a young woman, and that yelling
.loodlums even followed the car, and
that several automobiles started In
pursuit. Two other women, verging
on hysterics,- were escorted home by an
officer detailed to weo them safely
through.
Agent V.\ C. Taylor, of tho Society
for the Prevention of Cruelty to Ani?
mals, also testified that it was tho moat
violently disorderly crowd ho ever saw.
Ho said that if any one of the street

ho would have ;-diot tho man dead off
the spot.
In describing tho scone which fol?
lowed bis arrest of Bennett, Officer
Goldsby said that he was followed t>?
the patrol box by a yelling, defiant
jnob of men and hoys.
"They hooted and jeered me." ho said,
"and some of them began yelling, 'let'a
mob 1dm. Let's mob Miiin." I paid ip.
attention to them, having my band?
full Witt? tlie prisoner. None seemed
to enro who in ho accosted. Men leered
at frightened women, and swi [>t them
almost from their feet. They moved
from sido to side of tho street so fast
that it was impossible to get hold of
them"
lind OrrierN to Arrrff.
Major Werner testified that he had
given Instructions to his men to arrest
any man who accosted a woman. I hi
had sixteen officers present to prevent,
so far as he could, any disorder that
might tend to riotous conduct.
Detective Sergeant Wiley testified
that It was one of tho worst mobs
he had ever seen, that it was almost a
physical impossibility to move against
it. and that he hn<i to exercise good
care to keep himself from being knock?
ed down.
Captain Bar fool said that women nt>
tempting to pass through tho thront*
would l<e surrounded by a pack ot
human wolves, and that If any woman
related to him had been so surrounded
or accosted he Would have taken hit
own means in squaring thing".
Justice Crutchflcld asked Bicycle Po?
liceman Bryant what he won hi havo,
done if any of the ruffians had heaped
such Indignities upon his wife <<i
daughter, and ho replied:
"I hate to tell yon."
Justice Crutchflcld listened intent?
ly, apparently amazed, lie leaned for?
ward once, and said:
"It will ho a long time heforo such
an outrage is perpetrated in this city
again.''
Other evidence, all cumulative, wn.i
adduced in proof of the officer's state?
ments thnt Richmond had never befo,i*<S
been overrun by such a booting, howl?
ing mob. Estimates of the size of tho
crowd placed it variously at from 2,Q0SO
to 5,000. An employe of the Journal
placed it at 200.
Hold? There I? l.n^v.
Both lawyers argued tho case. Mr.
Anderson said that the motive is not
essential in such eases.
"It is entirely Immaterial whether
Bennett intended to be disorderly or
not. in cases of tills kind tlie act It?
self constitutes tho offense. This man
was present and a part of a disorderly
crowd."
Ho regarded It as inconceivable ?hat
such conditions could not be prevented,
or forbidden, declaring that there was
a law to protect tho women. Tie con?
tended that no man has a right to
speak to a woman not his acquaintance
unless it is to perform for her some
courtesy.
"The fact that the woman who was
accosted by Bennett does not th'nk ho
was disorderly and was there for tho
same purpose as he himself, docs not
alter the ease." tie said And from tho
dec ision of the court. It did not act as
a palliative.
