THE GREAT CONTEST.
The "Blues" Arc allnstling Let of Fellows,
and Are Sure Winners.
Following is the way the first round
steed when time was called last night at
10 o'cleck:
m,ui:s a
KVU3
Every membership ticket issued by the
"Blues" dates from the time you pay
your money.
Captain Cox told us yesterday that we
were goad representatives of our colors
we all looked se blue. Well, wc were
se sorry for the geed-natured Captain
and his army that it was enough te make
even an Indian cigar sign leek blue.
Several young men who arc holding off
because they have net the $5 just at
present are net consistent in their talks
They have been te almost every show
that has been at the Opera-house this
season, and we are satisfied that they are
net holders of yeaily complimentaries.
If they have money te go te shows with,
they certainly ought te save enough te
become a member of the Y. M. C. A.
Yesterday was really the first day of
the great membership contest for the Y.
M. C. A. en which any real work was
done by the "Blues" nnd "Reds," and
while tbe "Blues" did net capture all
these in the city who were net members
already, they succeeded in convincing
their opponents that they were in the
fight t win. Captain Kacklcy has the
boys worked up te a realizatieu of their
duty, and when the first quarter pest ii
reached the "Blues" will be found wait
ing for their opponents.
What's still a puzzle te us is hew the
"Reds" can have the nerve te represent
a color when they have te issue another
color of membership ' tickets. When
asked hew they were going te get around
it, ene replied that they were issuing red
ones, showing his application card. He
forgets that these cards make application
for a blue membership ticket, and that
there are no red ones. The "Blues"
issue no counterfeits. The blue card
admits te everything, with a fine, large,
ice-cold glass of blue lemonade and three
straws thrown in for geed measure.
Sume ene is going about telling the
young men that it costs f 5 te get Inte the
Y. M. C. A., and then they are made te
pay 25 cents for towels, 25 cents for a
key te the gymnasium end have te pay
$1 or f 3 for a suit in which te practice.
In fact, they say that Instead of $5, it
takes $ 9 or $10 te beceme a member. All
of which is as false as it is posslble for a
human te make up. The "Blues" will
Issue any young man a membership
ticket for 95 and guarantee that he can
take part in all the privileges, and the
only additional cost will be the purchaie
of a gymnasium suit, and that wijl be bo be
leng te him, net te the Association.

Seme people are peculiar in the matter of
buying a Watch. A silver Watch is geed
enough for one man se long as it keeps geed
time. Anether one wants something a little
mere showy a geld one, but it, tee, must
keep geed time. Seme want a high-priced
Watch, ethers a cheaper one, but after all
everybody wants a correct timepiece. We
selected our stock with time in view, and can
sell you a high, low or medium-priced Watch
and any of them will keep time the
essential point.
We repair Watches se that we can guaran
tee them te keep time. Charges low.

It has been said that the reason that the

because no true Irishman ever remembers
what takes place that day after neon.
ALARMING INCREASE.
Hetr Chickens Mnltiply Fer Seme Poultry
Dealers in (be County.
It is told of one of the men who were
engaged in the raid en the Messrs Best's
chickens a few nights since, that he had
one hen and a rooster, and sold as many
as twelve or fifteen dozen chickens in a
single seasen as their increase.
This is something like the story that
used te be told of Bill Ferrel, the tailor
at Washington, many years age.
It was said that he would buy a half
dozen chicken in the summer and turn
them loose and sheet chickens the whole
season thereafter.
Ferrel was a great wit and wag, who
was raised at Harrisonburg, in the valley
of Virginia, and used te work for Jimmie

HOW TO FIND OUT,
Fill a bettle or common glass with
urine and let it stand twenty-four hours;
a sediment or scttlingindicatcs a diseased
condition of the kidneys. When urine
stains linen it is positive evidence of kid
ney trouble. Toe frequent desire te uri uri
nate or pain in the back, is also convinc
ing proof that the kidneys and bladder
are out of order.
WHAT TO DO.
There is comfort in the knowledge se
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp-Reet, the great kidney remedy
fulfills every wish in relieving pain in the
back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every
part of the urinary passages. It corrects
inability te held urine and scalding pain
in passing it, or bad effects following use
of liquor wine or beer, and overcomes
that unpleasant necessity of being com
pelled te get up many times during the
night te urinate. The mild and the ex
traordinary effect of Swamp-Reet Is seen
realized. It stands the highest for its
wonderful cures of the most distressing
cases. If you need a medicine you should
-have the best. Sold by druggists, price
fifty cents and one dollar Far a sample
bottle and pamphlet, both sent free by
mail, mention The Puijlic Lkdekh and
seud your full Postefllce address te Dr.
