BEFOBE
I could get relief
from a most hor?
rible blood dis?
ease I had spent hundreds of dollars
trying various remedies and physi?
cians, none of which did me any
good. My finger nails came off and
my hair came out, leaving me
perfectly bald. I then went to
HOT SPRINGS
Hoping to be cured by this celebrated
treatment, but very soon became disgusted
and decided to try S.S.S. The effect was
truly wonderful. I commenced to recover
at once, and after I had taken twelve bot?
tles I was entirely cured?cured by S.S.S,
when the world
renowned Hot
Springs had failed.

A Wl.ltr Squall.
"A white squall?did I over soo one?
I should say I hud," said an old sailor
ill tho bingo olllce. '' Wo woro between
horo and tlio West Indies, and it was us
fair tt day as you over put eyes on. I
was at tho wheel, aud wo woro howling
along rmdor u pretty sailing broozo.
Thcro wasn't a oloud to ho seen, unless
a littlo whito vapor far off could bo
called a cloud. All of n ?uddou the cap?
tain camo up out of his cabin.
" 'Got ail tho light Kails off her us
quick as yon can,' ho shouted to tho
inato. 'Clew up tho royals and to'gal
laut sails und bear a hand livoly, boys.'
" 'What's tho matter with tho old man
now?'' said tho sailors as thoy looked
around tho horizon and saw nothing bnt
sunshine and the dear sky.
"Nevertheless all hands turned to
getting in tho light sails. Tho captain
took thowheol and sent mo to assist. Of
course wo all thought it was a piece of
foolishness, but wo worked with a will
bocauso tho enptnin told us to.
"Woll, wo had no sooner got those
sails in than it struck. Right out of tho
cloar sky camo uu awful gala It toro
our great mainsail and other sails to rib?
bons quicker than a flash. It camo 'butt
end to,' as tho sailors say.
"How did tho captnin know it was
coming? Why, he was in his cabin and
happened to see his glass go down sud?
denly. That meant something, and ho
hustled on deck. A good captain watches
his barometer as a cat watches a mouse "

Tho Fight Which I? to Coino.
Tho fato of tho civilized world had
always hung upon tho strength of the
Aryan nations to repel tho attempts of
Asiatics to force tlioir way into Europe
and to flood tho western world with
oriental ideas and habits, modes of gov?
ernment and forms of religion. The
struggles of Qreeco with Persia and of
Romo with Carthngo, the struggles of
Greeks, Romans and Teutons with the
Saracens; the conflicts, extending to our
own times, with tho Turks, wcro but so
many acts in one long drama, of which
tho earliest scones uro to bo found in tho
pages of Herodotus, and the latest might
bo studied in tho telegrams of tho daily
nowspapor.?"Lifo of Freeman, Dean

LUCKY WALTER SCOTT HOBART.
Loft m ninmmoth Fortuuo and i? Winner
of K! h Prizes on Ihn Turf.
A Monte Cristo, i\ Prince Fortunatas of
83, Is Walter Scott Hob-art, tho young Call
fornian who relloves the ennui of a oollogo
courso nt Harvard by campaigning a string
of thoroughbreds. Ho Is thu only son of
tho into Waltor S. Hobart, the California
multimillionaire, and with two sisters
shares the Immense fortune loft by his fa?
ther. How many millions he lias tho lu
cotuu from it is dilllcult to state, but tho
Hobnrt estnto is without doubt good for
between $8,000,000 and $10,000,000. Tho
elder Hobart was an enthusiastio horse
WALTKU SCOTT 1IOI1AUT.
mnn and owned tho famous trotting stal?
lion Stmuboul, 2:07}^; Nancy, Loo, tho
dam of Nancy Hanks, and Alma Mater,
tho dam of Alcantara and Alcyone.
Young Hobart consequently Inherited a
taste for tho turf as well as his father's
millions, hut. unlike his father, his favor?
ites are running horses. About IX years
ago young Hobart begun quietly getting
togother a stable and ho now possesses ono
of tho host strings of thoroughbreds owned
by a Californium About a wook before
the Realisation, worth $30,000, Hobart
purchased Bright Phoobus for about $G,
000 and n third of tlio stnke if tho Bright
Phoebus won the rare. In this case as in
others young Hohart's luok prevailed and
ho captured tho great raco with his now
purchase. Hobnrt owns enough trotters,
hacknoys, thoroughbreds, rond horses, polo
ponies and smart equipages to bankrupt a
modorutoly ricli man, but notwithstand?
ing his liberality ho does not spend Ills in?
come.
Ho Is an excellent polo playor and Is a
gentleman rldorof marked skill. Ho often
ridos his own heraus when tho ruoos stipu?
late that owners am to bo "up," and ho
usually wins. Among tho famous harness
horses he lias purchased are Hazel Wllkes,
3:11K; Ayros P, 2:03X, with running
mate; Pattio D, 2:13M, and Mattlo Mer?
rill. He is a singularly self possessed
young man. Some time ngo tho Utica
mine, which pays him $0,000 a day, caught
fire. Hobart was discussing polo with a
friend when Iiis manager rushed up out of
breath and shouted, "Mr. Hobart, tlio
Uticn mlnu is on ilro!" Hobnrt turned
around slowly. "Is that sol"' ho said
calmly. "Put it out." Then ho resumed
Iiis discussion of polo.
John Sphiti'n Good Story Abont Rums.
John Spinn, tho famous driver, rocontly
told a Turf, Field and Farm man n good
story about Rarus. At Rochester. In 1870,
tlio gelding was started to beat Goldsmith
Maid's record of 2:l-l}( over that track.
Ho trotted tho first mile in 3:17%, tho
second In 3:10, and Spinn decided ho would
not try again. While Splan was standing
by Hants, watching him cool out, Conk
lin, his owner, caiuo ovor and showed a
ticket calling for $100 if Rarus bout tho
Maid's record. It seems that nftor tho
horse, had gone tho mile in 3:1(3 some fol?
low had come to Couklin and sold him
the tiekut for$10. Splan says: "I had said
to tho starter as I dismounted nftor tills
milo t hat. I would not make another at?
tempt, but this game on tlio old mnn
mado me a little mud, and I said to Mr.
Couklin that I would go agaiu and that
Rarus and I would make a mighty effort
to make thu follow who sold that tickot
fool like n sucker. Wo started ngalu, and
tlio old horse never lifted his nose In tlio
mile, which ho trotted in 2:13}?). Tho on?
ly time 1 ever heard the old man swear
was after tills heat, when ho came over
whore we were cooling tho horse out and
said, T guess that d-d fool 1ms mado up
Iiis mind that Rarus is a trotting horse.1 "
LMckHon'H Change of Itoloa.
Charles Dlokson lias taken the advice of
his friends and will shortly forsake tho
part of the old Ghioagoan in "Other Peo?
ple's Money" and play that of the young
"hero," intrusted to Aubrey Bouclcault.
TJie role is a very good one, and as Mr.
Dlokson made his principal hit in n juve?
nile role In "The Wife" it is directly In
his lino. Of course, it is always a tempta?
tion to nn actor to strike out for "ehnrac
tor" business, but lie should bo perfectly
sure before he does It that tlio "character"
part is worth tad.ling.
Helen Ulytho'a Itcturn to tho Singe.
Tlu> return of Helen Dlytho to the stagr
has so far boon commercially successful,
She has already produced a play called
"Reaping tho Whirlwind," as well us
"Leah." Miss Rlythe was dreadfully
afraid thatthoator goers had forgotton her,
'jut her fears seem to have been quite
groundless. She is now negotiating for
jinio in New York.
CONDENSED SPORTING CHAT.
Sinco Ed Geers mado his debut as a
:lrlver ho has been in over 1,000 contests.
Ono of tlio smallest jockeys in America
Is Tod Sloan, who has ridden at 00 pounds.
Budd Bohle will drive Hal Billard to
bent the world's pacing record at Cleve?
land in October.
Tho committeo in oliarge of tho Yale
Cambridge games has been compelled to
arrange for 500 additional seats.
Jacob Sohoofer has brought suit against
tho North Chicago Street Railroad com?
pany for $10,000 damages for personal in?
jury sustained recently by being thrown
by a conductor from one of tlio cars in that
city.
Ernest S. Rnmsdoll of tho University of
Pennsylvania uses perhaps the longest
stride of any amateur runner In this coun?
try. In a 220 yards run, after lie was fair?
ly started, his strides averaged 7 feet '.?
inches. John V. Cruin, tho present inter
oollcglntechampion, scarcely strides 7 foot.
True it isthat it Is tho pace that kills, and
no horse can .stand thu strain of continu?
ous racing when tho time is below 2:10,
says Turf, Field and Farm. Joe Patchon,
Robort J and Azote have shown greater
endurance in this direction than any other
horses ever on the turf, but time has done
its work with the llrst two, and their own?
ers have been compelled to see tho error of
continuous racing without n let up.
