NO GAME WITH BROWN.
Faculty of Eastern College Objects
to Lang Trip—Milwaukee Meet.
The football game which the University
of Minnesota had hoped to play with
Brown University Nov. 2is off. The pre
liminary negotiations had been made and
there was every prospect for a contest,
but the Brown faculty stepped in and
prohibited the Brown team from taking
a trip so far West as Minneapolis, at the
late date proposed.
The management of the big Eastern
eleven was more than .willing to come
to Minneapolis, and the terms offered
by Minnesota were in. every way accept
able. The action of the faculty is a great
disappointment to Minnesotans.
The schedule for next season's games
is now complete, with the exception of
two open dates, Oct. 5 and Nov. 2. A
game has been promised.the Indians of
Haskell Institute. Leavenworth. Ivan.,
for one of these dates. . The Haskell
Indians have Jseen coming to the front
in football during the past few. years
and last season won the championship
of Kansas. A game with them in Minne
apolis will undoubtedly be a big drawing
card. • ".-.'■.
WHO IS CHECKER CHAMPION*
Titus, of Minneapolis, and Nelson
Blair Involved in a Dispute.
Bert Titus, of Minneapolis, is exercised
over the fact that his title of champion
of Minnesota is disputed by Nelson Blair,
a member of the fire department of this
city. A few days ago Mr. Titus, in a
letter to the Globe, asserted that lie did
not think there was a native of St. Paul
who could win one game in ten from
him, and also that he felt confident that
he could defeat any of the Saintly city
players blindfolded.
Blair, on the other hand, claims that
the title rightfully belongs to him, as
he has defeated Titus in a series of five
games played at the Dime Museum,
Minneapolis, Feb. 16. Of this series Blair
claims to have won two games, two hav
ing been drawn, and one won by Titus.

expected Scheve beat Blackburne in the

COLORADO SPRINGS AND PUEBLO
HAVE BKES LET OUT
OF IT
MAGNATES TO MEET THTJKSDAY
Rumors That "King:'' Werden Will
JVot Captain the Saint* Are Pro
nounced Baseless by Man
ager I.emioii -
Sioux City Is now in the circuit of the
Western Baseball league and Colorado
Springs and Pueblo are consequently out
of It. George Lennon received a tele
gram to this effect yesterday afternoon
from President Hickey, of the league.
The telegram also stated that the date
of the meeting of the magnates in St.
Paul had been changed to the coming
Thursday.
There has been considerable talk of
late in regard to the managership of the
St. Paul team. It is known positively
that Jimmy Ryan X of Chicago, one of
the owners of the club, while expressing
himself of late, stated positively that
Perry W'erden, who has been engaged by
Mr. Lennon for a term of years, will
be retained in that position, and will
have absolute control of the players. Mr.
Ryan will undoubtedly take Mr. Lennoa"s
place as president of the St. Paul Base
ball team. Mr. Lennon will continue as
principal owner of the club, but will
have nothing to do with the handling of
it, as his other business takes- all his
time.
Mr. Lennon denied yesterday that he
was after Tim Donohue; so, too, did Per
ry Werden.
Following are players signed by Mr.
Lennon up to date: Lee La Gore, Men
dovi, Wis., pitcher; Tim B. Keefe, Wash
burn, W ris., catcher; Frank Spencer, Min
neapolis, catcher; Otto Wilfiam, St.
Louis, Mo., inflelder; Frank Myroskl, St.
LcuiSj pitcher; Jack Crooks, St. Louis,
second baseman; R. ,T. Mackey, Chicago,
third baseman; "Bill" Wilson, Omaha,
catcher; Thomas Whealon, Raymond,
111., infielder; Bumpus Jones, Springfield,
0., pitcher; Phil Cavanaugh, St. Louis,
outfielder; John Hickey, Minneapolis,
pitcher; James E. Ryan, Chicago, out
fielder, and Perry Werden, captain, and
first base.
Jones lea the Interstate league of
pitchers last year. Wilson was with the
Minneapolis 'team a couple of years and
was behind the bat with the Omaha
team last year. Crooks is an old St.
Paul boy. He played with the Minneap
olis team two seasons and has also play
ed with St. Louis and Washington. Kyan
is perhaps the best known of them all,
having played with Chicago fourteen
years. The names of those signed are
familiar to all baseball enthusiasts.
Several other players are under con
sideration for contracts, but their names
will not be given out until something is
done.

TALKED OF PAVEMENTS
STATE SURVEYORS AND E>\«INI:IORS
HOLD F!\AL SESSION.
The relative value of brick and other
material for use as paving was the sub
ject .of discussion by the Minnesota sur
veyors and engineers, at its session yes
terday yestcrd-iy morning. A paper on
"Paved Streets" was read by Assistant
City Engineer George 1,. Wilson, who
thought brick was a good pavement,
especially for the streets of small cities,
He recommended it because of the ease
in the first laying, and in the placing of
subsequent repairs; also for the small
cost a.ud durability. It was always
necessary, he said, to keep the pavement
as clean as possible. City Engineer Sub
lette, of Minneapolis, did not agree with
this last statement. He said that too
much machine sweeping of streets would
eventually wear out the pavements,' es
pecially those I made of brick and cedar
blocks.
F. J. Ottl3, of the American Grass
Twine company, read a paper on "Min
nesota Wire Grass and Its Uses." R.
K. Whitely read a paiu.T on eouniry
midges and their building.

of St. Paul, on "Modern Mapmaking.
from the Draughtsman to the Proof."

The members of the assembly, at its
meeting last night, followed in the foot
steps of the board of aldermen by approv
ing the report of the market site commis
sion. The action of the board overruling
the objections of EL W. Barthol, who
owns the lots on which the Cook barn is

did not think the award of $9,140, made
for the property, was- enough.
The final orders for paving Rice street
with asphalt, from College to University,
University to Como, and from Como to
Front street, were passed, wfth hardly
any discussion, and.it is now up to

HOSPITALS FOR THE INSANE.

Associated Charities Strongly Favor
])< l'-iHlon liiNliiutienn.
The subject of "Detention Hospitals
for the Insane" was discussed last even
ing at the fortieth, conference of the As
sociated Charities, held at the residence
of A. E. Clark, 351 Summit avenue. A
W. Gutridge, general secretary of thi
Associated Charities, presided. The dis
cussion last night was apropos of a bill
that is now before the state legislature
and which provides for the establishment
in each city that tyas a population of
iJO,OOO or more people, !of 'a detention hos
pital, where patients Suspected of In
sanity may be sent tor «ommrtment for
a period not exceeding sjx weeks. Such
hospitals will be under the jurisdiction
of city and county physicians.
Papers expressing unqualified approval
of the bill were read ,by Dr. Arthur
Sweeney, who spoke'foV '"The Interests
of the Public," and 'by C. E. Faulkner,
whose subject was "The ;Interests of the
Afflicted." Dr. Mary AVhetstone, of Min
neapolis, who prepared the bill on behalf
of the W. C. T. U. -of the state, spoke
briefly in its favor. r >l>p. Leo Crafts, of
Minneapolis, thought, the word "deten
tion" ought to be stricken from the bill,
as it gave an odium to tfre institution,
and that was the very thing the friends
of the bill were desirous of preventing.
Secretary Gutridge read- a section of the
report of the board of trustees, of the
state hospital for the Insane opposing the
detention hospital on the grounds of ex
pense. Dr. A. \V. Dunning and Dr. A.
B. Anckei- led -the discussion whfeh fol
lowed. Secretary Jackson, of -.the state
board of corrections and charities, spoke
briefly in favor of the bill. The general
sentiment of the conference was that the
bill was a necessary and worthy one and
should be passed.

TO CURE THE GRIP.
Advice of a Fmiious Physician.
First and foremost, REST.
Take care of yourself. Tour already
! weakened nerves want rest, and must
! have it. If the attack.-is severe, go to
| bed and remain there." -More fatalities
result' from the neglect of thisi precau
tion than from any other cause: ■ .
Eat sparingly. Your digestive organs
are in no condition to take care of large
quantities of food. .: " ■
Drink plenty of pipe, .cold water. It
allays the fever, stimulates the kidneys
to action and opens up the pores -of the
skin. Keep the bowels 'open with *Dr.
Miles" Nerve and Liv«l^ Pills. [. .;
; Take three doses of I pr/ 3 Miles' Nervine
p&r day, and if you cannot? sleep take an
extra dose at ; bad times? To further con
trol the fever, anil to overcome the pe

MAJ. ATHERTON, OF THE PRIA'CE

A DIVORCE
DUKE IS THE CO-RESPONDENT
His Grace of Westminster Charged
With Wrecking the Gallant Offi
cer's HapplaeNg-Edivard
Vll.'s "Same Involved.
LONDON, Feb. 21.—Maj. T. J. Ather
ton, second in command of the Twelfth
(Prince of Wales Royal) lancers, one of
the crack regiments now in South Africa,
has filed a suit against his wife, Mabel
L.ouisa Atherton, naming the Duke ot
Westminster as the co-respondent.
» With the announcement of the tiling
cf the suit of Atherton versus Atherton
and Westminster, the long anticipated
divorce proceedings of Maj. Atherton
against his wife with the Duke of Man
chester figuring in the role of co-respond
ent, have at last materialized. Within
the past thirty-six hours the lawyer,
who is looked upon as the leader of th 3
divorce court bur. has been retained in
behalf of the petitioner. The case can
not be aired to court at any rate for
some months, and possibly not before,
the autumn, and the friends of the just
married duke lTiay yet succeed in compro
mising the mailer and preventing a trial.
But as Maj. Atherton is reported to have
already refused a check for £40,000 as
compensation for tiie injury he is said
to have sustained, the task ahead ot
ihose who are trying to arrange a set
tlement, among whom is said to be King
Edward himself, would seem to be ,in
superable.
The respondent, Mabel Louisa Ather

oneself to longer lemain in it Also it is wsll to remember that "An

Sexual excesses, whether by natural or unnatural practices, determines
an irritable weakness of the genital organs. The urine is often found load
ed^with shreds, consisting of pus-corpuscles, epithelium and occasional
supermatozoa. The pathological effects of abnormal seminal losses upon tho
general system presents the greatest variations. The Immediate effects of
pollutions are a sense of great fatigue, headache, backache, mental dull
ness, etc. In the early stage tlvi-se sensations are ordinarily of short dura
tion^ and^ may entirely disappear ia the interval belween the emissions. In
an advance sfage of the malady the disturbances are more generalized;
the patient is restless, cannot sit still or remain long in any position, ar.d
In more aggravated cases involuntary twitchings, trembling of hands, etc..
are noticeable. The effects of abnormal seminal losses upon the higher in
tellectual centers are more characteristic; the essential mental faculties are
weakened; the patient finds that hla perceptive powers are lesa acute; he
cannot concentrate his mind upon any subject, and is therefore entirely
incapacitated for intense or prolonged mental exertion; his memory is
impaired, especially his memory for words; he constantly pauses In hi*
speech for loss of a word, and his articulation becomes halting or stam
mering. Mental disturbances are ulso manifest. The patient shuns so
ciety, likes to be alone, constantly broods over his sexual trouble, im
agines himself impotent and that his humiliating secret may be read in
his face; his glance is furtive and he rarely looks one-straight In the eve.
As a result a fixed melancholy . -.es upon him; this condition of extreme
sexual depression is most deplorable, and forms the darkest shades in the
clinical picture of Spermatorrhoea.

though physicians know they
can cure it generally, beginning
when most of the lungs are
still sound, and even some
times when a great deal of
damage is done.
The people don't know it
yet. They have been told;
but they don't believe it; they
don't act on it.
Scott's emulsion of cod-liver

means of cure.
There are other helps: dry

troubled for five years with indiges

tried a number of remedies but could
get no relief. About two years ago
I saw an advertisement of Ttipain
Tabules. I got two five-cent cartons
and found that they dki me more good
than anything I ever used. I have
continued their use since then, and
always keep a supply on hand. I recom
