CITIES' HOTELS
CINCINNATI, 0., Sept., 26—(By
Associated Press.) —Baseball en
♦thusiasts from all parts of the coun
try will come to Cincinnati to see
the “Cincy” Nationals and the Chic
ago White Sox clash in the world se
ries games, if letters requesting seat
reservations and hotel accommoda
tions can be relied upon.
President ‘Garry’’ Herrmann of •
the Cincinnati Nationals was besieg- j
ed weeks in advance of the closing '
of the National League season for '
tickets for the games by Cincinnati 1
followers of the "Reds” and by ’
“fans” from every section of the
country, who desired to witness the
games to be played in this city. Ho
tels also reported that hundreds of
. requests for rooms had been re
ceived. To give every attention and
conveniences to visitors during the
world’s series games, the Cincinnati i
Chamber of Commerce planned to
co-operate with the Cincinnati club
management.
Acting on the request of President
August Herrmann the convention
and publicity department of the
Chamber of Commerce named a spe
itrial committee of five to devise means
Tor best meeting the desires of Mr. i
Herrmann. ;

The committee arranged to estab- :
'lisb a hotel bureau, in charge of a ■

idences where visitors could be lodg
ed. All these rooms were to be in
spected in advance so there could
be no question concerning their de
sirability.
Word was sent to Washington,
D. C., requesting the co-operation of
the railroad administration in the
matter of obtaining desirable park
ing places for special Pullman cars
carrying large private parties to the
games. It was expected that many
visitors would utilize their cars for
sleeping purposes while in the cfty,
providing they had parking places.
Arrangements were preparation
for suitable parking places for the
visitors and for parking places in
the vicinity of the baseball park dur-
| ing the games.
No Place for “Dips.”
For the protection of patrons vis
iting Cincinnati and Chicago during
the playing of the series detectives
who are specialists in dealing with
pickpockets and auto thieves will be
very active in both cities. A large
number of Chicago plain clothes men
will be on duty here while the teams
are in Cincinnati and in turn the lo
cal experts will mingle with the
crowds when the scene shifts to Chic
ago.
Time was when pickpocket clans
gathered from the four corners of '
the country to follow the pennant j
winning baseball teams to the fields ’
of worlds series combats. But times
have changed, say the police, and
now it is easier to steal automobiles
than to extract a fat purse from the
pocket of an excited fan.
The professional “dip” still attends
world’s championship battles but his
profession has fallen into decay. The '
one-tinie adept at snipping a spark
ler from a scarfpin whose artful
methods combined courage and a
sort of legerdemain is as scarec as
radium to detectives.
Picking pockets always was hazard
ous and stealing automobiles has be
come profitable with even less ele
ment. So the pickpocket fraternity
has lost many members to the easier
means/ of unlawful profit, say the
plain colthes men.
the Stations.
Besides, of late years the police
have catalogued the pickpockets
pretty thoroughly. As a world se
ries or other national gathering takes
the stage, detectives go on watch at
♦he railway station. Th e light fin
gered gentry ar’e met by the recep
tion committee and escorted to
rooms at detective headquarters j
where they remain, as guests usual
ly, until those with whom they hoped
to brush shoulders have gone away.
Some “dips” escape the net, how- ;
ever, and practice their art with mor.
or less success. A world series '
game invariably is the scene of op- I
erations for a number of them. Oth
er thieves are there, too. *The au
tomobile thieves predominate.
In three days of world series be
tween the Chicago Cubs and Boston
Red Sox in Chicago last year, the
police arrested 85 suspected pick
pockets and auto thieves. Nearly I
100 motor cars wer’e driven away
from the vicinity of the baseball
park by persons not their owners.
The majority were recovered but
many were not.
IF KIDNEYS ACT ”
BAD IMF»
days Backache is a sign you have been
eating too much meat, which
forms uric acid.
When you wake up with backache and
dull misery in the kidney region it gen
erally means you have been eating too
much meat, says a well-known authority.
Meat forms uric acid which overworks
the kidneys in their effort to filter it
from the blood and they become sort of
paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys
get sluggish and clog you must relieve
them, like you relieve your bowels; re
moving all the body’s urinous waste,
else you have backache, sick headache,
dizzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue
is coated, and when the weather is bad
you have rheumatic twinges. The urine
is cloudy, full of sediment, channels often
get sore, water sealds and you are obliged
to seek relief two or three times during
the night.
Either consult a good, reliable physi
cian at once or get from your pharmacist
about four ounces of Jad Salts; take
a ♦ables]>oonful in a glass of water
before breakfast for a few days and your 1
kidney’s will then act fine. This famous j
salts is made from the acid of grapes |
and lemon juice, combined with lithia, j
and has been used for generations to ;
clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys, I
also to neutralize acids in the urine so it
no longer irritates, thus ending bladder ’
ven knees.
Jad Salts is a life saver for regular
. at eaters. It is inexpensive, cannot !
njtire and makes a delightful, effer- I
descent lithia-water drink.

TRAINS RUNNING

REPORTSREVEAL
ATLANTA, Sept. 26.—1 n the
campaign for on-time passenger
train service in the Southern Region,
the Illinois Central railroad in July
again led all other lines, bettering
! its fin’e June record by putting 98.5
per cent of all its /rains into final
terminals on time despite delays for
any cause, including slow connec
tions. During the month 6,644 trains
were operated by this road, and 6,-
550 of them reached their terminals
on time, while 6,557, or 98.7 per
cent maintained schedule or made
up time. These percentages com
pare, respectively, with 96.6 and
I 96.8 in June.
Th e general average for all rail
roads during the month did not equal
the high records set in May’ and
June, although it continued to be
good in comparison with earlier rec
ord. There were 5.3,256 passenger
J trains operated by the twenty-nine
■ roads. Os that number 49,248, or
92.5 per cent, maintained schedule
or made up time, while 47,774/ or
89.7 per cent, arrived on time at final
terminals.
Among the larger railroads, the
1 Southern, operating 15,875 trains,
■ stood near the top of the list with
14,508 or 91.4 per cent reaching final
terminals on time, and 14,964, or
94.3 maintaining schedule or making
up time.
During the month of July the Sea
board railroad operated 3,227 pas
senger trains, of which 2,985 arriv
ed at final terminals on time, repre
senting 92.5 per cent; 3,021 trains
during the month maintained sched
ule or made up time, representing a
sils and a wide variety of equipment
of use in every day life. Prices are
far below those charged by private
retail establishments and the jam
which greeted the initial day of op
eration of the government store on
Stewart avenue testified to the eager
ness of the public to take advantage
of the situation.
Not only Atlantans, but residents
of other section, were on hand to
buy and visitors from all parts of
the state were discernible in the
crowd. The store will be kept open
daily except Sunday until the sur
plus allotted to this district has been
exhausted.
