THE ARMY OF HEALTH.
The Army in the Philippines Insig
nificant Compared With This
One.
If all the people in the United States,
Canada and Great Britain who make
daily use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
could be as:embled together It would
tnako an army that would outnumber
cur army of one hundred thousand by
at least five to one.
Men and women, who are broken down
in health, are only a part of the thou
sands who use this poular preparation,
the greater number are people who are
In fair health but who know that the
way to keep well is to keep the digestion
perfect and use Stuart's Tablets as reg
ularly as meal time comes to insure
rood digestion, and proper assimilation
of food.
Prevention is always better than cure
and disease can find no foothold if the
digestion is kept in good working order
hy the daily use of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablet;?.
Mr. Thomas Seale. Mayfleld. Cal.,
Fays: "'Have used and recommended
ttuart's Tablets because there is noth
ing: like them to keep the stomach
risrht."
Miss Lelia Dively, 4627 Plummer St.,
IPittsburg. Pa., writes: "I wish everyone
to know how grateful I am for Stuart's
J dyspepsia Tablets. I puttered for a long
time and did not know what ailed n?.
I lost flesh ritjht along until one day I
noticed an advertisement of these tab
lets and immediately bought a 60 cent
Iiojc at the drug store. I am. only on
the second box and am gaining In flesh
and color. I have at last found some
thing that has reached my ailment."
From Mrs. Del. Kldred, Sun Prairie,
fvVis. : "I was taken dizzy very suddenly
during the hot weather of the past sum
mer. After ten days of constant dizzi
ness I went to our local physician, who
taid my liver was torpid and I had
overheated my blcod: he doctored me for
two weeks without much improvement;
I finally thought of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets (which I had used long before
for various bad feelings) and the first
three tablets helped me.
"They are easily the best all around
family medicine I ever used."
The army of people who take Stuart's
Tablets are mostly people In fairly good
health, and who keep well by taking
them regularly after meals. They con
tain no opiates, cocaine or any cathartic
or injurious drucs. simply the natural
peptones and digestives which every
weak stomach lacks.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold by
druggists every where in United States,
Canada and Great Britain.
THE TUGELA RIVER.
From Current Literature.
The name of the river Tugela, which
Is pronounced by the Kaffirs Chew-gela,
is derived from the native sources, "tu
gela" meaning "startling" In the Zulu
language. The river is over 200 miles
Jong and divides Natal, which Is loz-ipnge-shaped,
into two unequal parts. the
larger of which lies to the south of the
startling river. It rises on the eastern
flank of Mont am Sources, a peak in
the Berg" 11,000 feet high, and de
scends in a thin streak down precipitous
cliffs a sheer fall of 1.800 feet into the
plains below. It is one of the most pic
turesque rivers in the world: canons,
dark gorges, rapids and wild ravines
mark its course from start to finish
I jvtly scenery which is proving such a
source of trouble to British troops in the
jjresent campaign.
Where "Women Would Shine.
From the Chicago Post.
"I can't see why women would not
mate good politicians," she remarked.
"Well," he replied thoughtfully, "here
tofore I have always taken the negative
n that proposition, but there are some
features of this campaign that have a
tendency to convince me that I am In
error."
"What are they?" she asked.
"The amount of time and attention
that has been given by various orators
o askinff questions."
"It was pitch dark," said the nar
rator; "the wind was biting and "
"A wind biting?" interposed the word
splitter with an incredulous air. "Yes,"
lioldly returned the man with the story;
"didn't you ever hear of the teeth of a
gale?"
"That's a great heater you put in for
remarked the tenant enthusiastic
ally. "Keeps you good and warm, eh?"
queried the landlord. "Warm! Why,
when we get through raking and shak
ing it trying to make it burn the fam
ily has to retire to the yard to cool off."

Takes a Slump in
Practice Work.
Her
Second Eleren Scores Fifteen
Points on Regulars.
MEN WOItN AND SORE.
Fincke Likely to Succeed Yeur
at Quarterback.
Harvard Cripples Return to the
Work Again.
New Haven, Conn., Nov. 21. The
scrubs scored 15 points on the Tale "var
sity team yesterday in less than ten
minutes of open practice and prevented
the regulars, at that, from making a
single touchdown. What took place in
the secret practice, however, is not re
vealed. Ten of the points scorpd by the
scrubs were credited to Sharpe, whose
brilliant run of half the length of the
field would have set the spectators wild
with enthusiasm had it been made In a
championship game. Sharpe broke from
several tacklers in succession and was
twice tripped up, but, almost unaided
bv interference, crossed the goal line.
Three minutes later he dropped a field
goal from the 30 yard line. Wilhelmi
scored another touchdown in short or
der. The facts stated indicate what sort of
game the Tale eleven put up. Were it
on any day but one following a hard
game It would cause a panic. But the
coaches do not think the showing indi
cates reversal of form. Wear, Sheldon
and Capt. Brown, however.looked drawn
and ashen-pale, as if well worn down.
Bloomer looked tired and lighter in
weight, but played hard opposite the
sinewy Kunzig. Coy was not played
except in secret.
Quarterback Wear was perfectly con
sistent with his record of the season and
fumbled with regularity nearly every
punt that came to him. Frank Barber,
'62, who played quarter on "Billy"
Rhoades' team in 1391, came to coach
Wear, but Wear's case seems so aggra
vating that it is apparently chronic. The
coaches seem to think so, for they call
ed Cook and Sharpe into play today and
kept them catching punts long after the
open work ceased. This Is regarded as
an indication that Fincke will probably
go Into the Harvard game at quarter
back, and the big half-backs, Sharpe
and Cook, start the game. :
Yale is brushing up the fine points of
the more brilliant and varied style of
play for the Harvard game. For in
stance. Hale was tried repeatedly today
by Coach William T. Bull at kicking
goal from placement. From the 35 yard
line Hale missed only one out of six
attempts. But iu the hard work of
scrimmaging Hale and Fincke were
spared. They were played oniy in de
fensive work. Cook doing most of the
running with the ball for the 'varsity.
Trainer Murphy Is anxious about the
men. There is grave danger that un
less the work of the week is light the
rush line will lose snap and vim. The rest
which the scrubs had enabled them to
go into tne play witn so much more
force and speed that they in turn made
practically the same team that defeat
ed Princeton on Saturday look fully as
helpless as were the Tigers.
HARVARD CRIPPLES RETURN.
Cambridge, Mass., Nov. 21. The prac
tice of the Harvard team was mostly in
side the baseball cage, because of the
cold rain outside. The work in conse
quence was not effective nor valuable.
The signals were run through for hall
an hour and some of the men were giv
en individual coaching. Then the two
elevens were sent out to wallow around
in the mud for 40 minutes in an alleged
practice half. It was terrible work for
the players and did not produce any
definite results. Captain Ijaly was in
uniform again and seemed to be nearly
recovered from his accident. He still
limps, but says he feels well, and Mac
Masters says he will surely have the
captain ready to play tne entire game
next Saturday. Ellis and Sawin were
also out and played through the prac
tice half. They are nearly, well again.
PEOQEAMME OF FITZ.
Lanky Pugilist "Will Not Tight
Jeffries Before Next May.
New York, Nov. 21. Bob Fitzsimmons
is in town. His visit is due to the fact
that hi3 show is to appear at Plain
field, N. J., tomorrow night, and that
he wanted to be near his family. Fitz
is looking well, and says that his health
is all that could be desired. He today
called on Al Smith at the Gilsey house
and spent several hours in that sports
man's company. Talking of fighting,
Fitz said.
"I am at present all absorbed in the
doings of my theatrical venture, and
fighting Just now is furthest from my
thoughts. I am doing a swell business,
and they say that I am getting to be
quite an actor. I see Jeffries has been
matched to box Sharkey and Ruhlin.
They are both good men, especially
Ruhlin, and the contests ought to be
interesting. Jeffries, strange to say, is
very anxious to fight me now. Why is
it? He had a chance to do so last sum
mer, but said that he was in poor con
dition. I offered to meet him after I had
defeated Sharkey and Ruhlin within
three weeks of the other. Why didn't
he grasp at the chance then? I'll admit
that my battle with Ruhlin was not such
a difficult one, still I had to do all in my
power to win. My task against Shar
key was easier. But in consenting to
fight Jeffries after I go through with
Ruhlin and the former sailor I think I
did a manly and fair thing."
"Will you fight Jeffries again?" was
asked.
"I may and I may not." said Fitz. "I
can not say what I will do nonv. I
don't Intend to cancel any dates for the
benefit of Jeffries. For the present I
have retired, and under no circum
stances will I consent to even entertain
a match until possibly next May, when
my season on the road is over."
RYAN AND CARTER.
Middleweight Champion
to
Meet
Brooklyn Fighter.
Chicago, Nov. 21. Tommy Ryan, mid
dleweight champion of the world, and
"Kid" Carter, the young Brooklyn
fighter who defeated Tim Murphy, the
Australian champion, last week, have
been matched to box six rounds in the
windup of the next show at Tattersails
one week from last night. The terms
were closed Saturday afternoon and
articles of agreement will be signed this
afternoon and forfeits posted.
Carter is the most likely of the young
er division of middleweights. He ia but
20 years of age, but is of powerful build
and has a blow In either hand that is
apt to end a fight In short order. That
Ryan has considerable respect for him
Is ehown in the hesitancy he had over
making the match. Ryan's recent de
feat of Jeff Thorne, another man who
will appear on the bill, shows that he
is in great form right now. He will
have to be to defeat this sturdy young
ster frod the east. Carter is confident
in his ability to do as well with Ryan
as he did with Murphy, who is regard
ed as one of the strongest hitters in
the country. Yet Carter sailed into him
and exchanged blow for blow.

TOMMY RYAN TALKS.
Tells How Fitz Can Win From
Jim
Jeffries.
Chicago, Nov. 21. "If Fitzsimmons
should ever meet Jim Jeffries and fight
him right or fight the way I think is
right, I would say the red-topped
man's chances were the best," remarked
Tommy Ryan recently.
"There is only one way to fight the
big fellow and that is to fight him
clever, as Corbett did. There is no
doubt whatever but that Corbett would
have secured the decision over him down
at Coney Island only for that lucky
punch in the twenty-third round. The
ex-champion had a marked advantage
on points, and I ought to know, for I
was in Jeff's corner. The big fellow was
doing well, but he was as slow as a
snail compared to Corbett, who would
land repeatedly without a return, and
that left hook of Corbett's would catch
Jeff many times before he even thought
it was coming.
"As I said before, I was in Jeffries'
corner and when the fight was draw
ing so close to an end and Corbett was
doing so well I told Jeff that he would
have to let out and try and land a de
ciding punch, and this he did. Corbett
in sending his left hooks draws his arm
away back before he lets go. I noticed
this from the start, and told Jeff re
peatedly to carry his left high, and
when Corbett started his left to hook in
a short one to get there first. This he
did in the twenty-third round, and it
was all off with Corbett.
"I will give Jeffries credit for his
great fight with Sharkey, for he was no
fit man to enter the ring that night.
His condition was the worst and a fit
place for him was his bed. I do not
want to detract credit from Jeffries in
any way, but I am simply saying that I
like Fitz's chances, should they meet
again."
A BIG PURSE OFFER.
Corbett Knows of $20,000 as an In
ducement for Jeffries to Meet Him.
New York, Nov. 21. According to
James J. Corbett, a. western promoter
will arrive in town in a few days with a
proposition that he believes that Jeffries
will certainly accept. Corbett says the
westerner, whose name he does not care
to mention, will offer a purse of $15,000
for a twenty-round bout between him
self and Jeffries, to take place east of
the Mississippi river. As an inducement
Corbett says he will add J5.0OO to the
purse, making the total $20,000, and agree
to have the winner take all.
Extends Five Year Agreement
Chicago,Nov. 21 President Ban John
son of the American Baseball league
stated today that he had received tele
grams from all the clubs in the league
extending for thirty days the present
five years' agreement, which expired last
night. This will give thirty days in
which to meet and perfect the organiza
tion with the new circuit, which is to
include Washington and Baltimore.
President Johnson also emphatically de
nied that the American league had
agreed to back a new western baseball
circuit to be known as the Western As
sociation and to include Kansas City,
Minneapolis, St. Paul, Rockford or Des
Moines, Grand Rapids, Louisville, Day
ton and Toledo.
Hogan Anxious to Fight.
New York. Nov. 21. Tommy, better
known as Kid. Hogan reached New
York today. He has been fighting in
England, where he has been for the last
year. Hogan will leave New York this
week for Louisville. His manager,
Johnny Mack, is endeavoring to have
Hogan matched against some good boy
in his class. He prefers Terry McGov
ern. Kid Broad or Dave Sullivan. One
of these three, or all of them, will be
challenged to meet Hogan, and Man
ager Mack believes he will be able to
clinch a match with one of the trio.
BAD DLOOD,
BAD C0F.1P
The skin is the seat of an almost end
less variety of diseases. They are knewu
by various names, but are all due to the
same cause, acid and other poisons in
the blood that irritate and interfere with
the proper action of the skin.
To have a smooth, soft skin, free from
all eruptions, the blood must be kept pure
and healthy. The many preparations of
arsenic and potash and the large number
of face powders and lotions generally
used in this class of diseases cover up
for a short time, but cannot remove per
manently the ugly blotches and the red,
disfiguring pimples.

Leavenworth Episcopal Minis
ter's Prohibition View.
Favors High License andProhib
itory Law Repeal.
THINKS LAW A FAILURE
Can Not Prohibit Therefore
Should Regulate Saloons.
A License of $2,000 Would
Drire Oat the Joints.
Leavenworth, Nov. 21. The remarks
made by Rev. A. N. Atkin from the pul
pit of the Episcopal church Sunday
morning on the prohibition question oc
casioned much comment. Rev. Mr. At
kin was seen by a reporter yesterday
and said he was merely giving expres
sion in words to an opinion long enter
tained and which he had expressed sev
eral times In the columns of the church
caper.
T am In favor of high license," said
Rev. Mr. Atkin. "What is the use of
having a prohibitory law that doesn't
prohibit? The law is a dead letter and .t
should be wiped off the statute books.
"In my mind, the only remedy for the
evils of the liquor traffic is high license,
Of course it will not abolish the saloons
but it will abolish most of the evils con
nected with them. It will run all these
low dives and gambling dens out of
business and that would be a great step
"I used to live in Macon, Missouri,
nnrl thev adonted a hierh license policy.
En oh saloon was reouired to pay a li
cense of S2.000 oer year and in a short
time there weie onlv four saloons there.
The four men who run these saloons are
well thought of. They are well off and
stand high in the community. No fight
ing or carousing is allowed in their sa
loons and the town has greatly improv
ed morally since the adoption of high
license.
"I would like to know just how much
revenue this citv derives from the sa
loons and there are many people in
Leavenworth who would like to know
lust how much the city gets in a year
from the saloons. I was told today that
the proprietor of one of the largest and
best paying saloons in the city only
paid $10 per month license. And I be
lieve it, though I know no way of veri
fying it.
"I don't see any use in starting any
crusade to make the saloons close up.
They would only close their front doors
and I am not so plagued pious of rel:
gious that I can t see an alley and a
back door open.
'"1 believe in benefiting the town per
manently. I am juBt as strong a beiiev
er in total abstinence as any one but
see we can't hope to get it under a pro
hibitory law and therefore I don't see
the use of having that law. But if we
can't abolish, then let us regulate. Put
a license of $2,000 per year on every sa
loon and every one of these low resorts
would be driven out of business. There
would only be about ten saloons could
afford to stay in business in Leaven
worth and surely that would be an im
provement over the present condition of
affairs.
TWO STOLEN STEEKS
Found in the Pasture of a Wealthy
Parmer Near Belle Plaine.
Wellington, Nov. 21. J. P. Elsea and
J. M. Thralls found two head of stolen
cattle in the pasture of a wealthy and
w'ell known farmer and cattleman near
Belle Plaine Saturday. The farmer paid
for the cattle and gave Elsea $20 to
cover his expenses to avoid arrest and
prosecution. Thralls and Elsea expect
ed to find only one head, which was
missed recently, but in, going, through
the herd found a steer which was stolen
from their ranch in Barber county a
year ago. The cattle were driven in un
der cover of herds brought from Barber
county.
Out in Barber county the cattlemen
have a way of going through traveling
herds to protect one another, and when
cattle with familiar brands are found in
these herds, they cut them out. The
Belle Plaine farmer was met by one of
these cattlemen about eight miles this
side of Thralls & Elsea s ranch with a
herd of cattle recently, and the cattle
man went through the herd and cut out
two head belonging to Thralls & Elsea.
He reported the incident to Elsea, and
as Elsea had suspected the Belle Plaine
man for some time, he decided to go to
his farm and see if he had any more of
their missing cattle, with the result
stated above.
STOLE 7,000 CHICKENS.
An Arrested Woman Tells of Whole
sale Depredations.
Wichita, Kas., Nov. 21. John Whit
ney, of McPherson county, was arrest
ed here late Tuesday afternoon bv the
sheriffs of Sedgwick and Dickinson
counties upon a warrant sworn out by
Charles Nealy, of Dickinson, charging
Whitney with abducting Nealy's two-year-old
child and eloping with his wife.
Incidentally, the officers learned that
Whitney, the woman and Nealy are the
trio who for the past few months have
been making raids on the barnyards' of
the farmers of this vicinity, stealing
their chickens. When questioned, the
woman admitted that they were the
parties wanted, and stated that since
the first of this year they have stolen
over 7.000 chickens.
They traveled about In a prairie
schooner and the woman admitted that
they committed their depredations in
McPherson, Sedgwick, Sumner, Harvey
and Dickinson counties. A quarrel be
tween Nealy and Whitney caused them
to separate. After the kidnaping
charge is disposed of, the trio will be
arrested upon the information given by
the woman.

& Fountain, proprietors oC the Grand

a pitchfork late Tuesday afternoon by
J. W. Street, a farmer, and seriously
and possibly fatally injured. Fountain
came down here to foreclose a. mortgage
on about three hundred head of horses
on the Street farm, and the trouble be
tween him and Street was the outcome
of negotiations which had been in pro
gress for three days. The Street farm is
several miles from Eureka. J. W. Street
and his son, L. O. Street, were in a sort
of partnership to speculate in horses.
They bought 232 head of Montana horses
