THE AFTER EFFECTS.


where the Fearful Danger Of Grip les
and How to Counterfeit n.
Here is something which one Of the most
prominent doctors In America recently said
about the grill:
Have you noticed that only those persons
who were aged and feeble or debilitated died
OF the Grip? The Grip itself "a not so serious
CT dangerous, but II is the terribly weakened
condition that 1t leaves one In and the fear
full after fleets which 1t brings. The people
who die do not have vitality enough TO re-
cover; they do not possess yigor enough TO
throw OF the after effects. Such people, In
fact all people, should have help In some
sensible way to throw Off the depressing, the
facilitating, the almost suicidal feelings
which the Grip always causes. Nothing will
do this, moth ng will help nature except some
pure stimulant and there Is nothing In the
wav OF afimnlp us equal 10 pure whiskey.n
No medicinal ttmulant ever has produced
the results, ever has received the enforse-
ments or'eyer has bten SO popular as Dnffy's
Pure Malt Whiskey. The reason IL exceed
n gly simple. II Is because IL has gently,
healthily and completely assisted Nature
toned II up. enabled lt to resist the outside
influences which tended 10 disc sse and 10 as
slst toward the attractive path which leads
to health The after effects OF the Grip are
the worst feature OF IL. They mus be
counteracted II strength and health are to be
regained. I hey can be overcome In but one
certain way and that Is By the use o. the
lant above mentioned. There is nothing
befofe the public which can for moment
compare with II and the genuine should be
insisted upon

The features of yesterdays game was
the brilliant playing of Fisher, Whining
toms leftfelder He made a circus
catch Of a high fly that every body
thought was a three base his. At the
time he caught the ball, three men were
running the bases and two Of them had
crossed the plate. The fielder, hewever.
made leap for the ball and held it fast,
thus retiring the side. Fisher also made
three pretty hits and two runs. He Is a
good man.
The Wilmington GLIB sadly missed the
services Of Newell, White and Hawke
and special officer yesterday. The
positions Of these players ware all poorly
filled and their long hits we're often
wanted. It is hoped that these players
will be In their places In the next game
The mob that lined the fence and the

stand were also detrimental to the clubs

Trade aennrallr nenraa.ed-

The general depression in trade which
has existed during the last six months
still continues and there are yet little
signs of relief. This depression extends
TO every branch Of industry, and the
number of men out of EN- 2loyment is
much greater than fer any similar period
for many years past The primary cause
of this is the continued slghtness OF the
money market, produced by a series Of
causes both in this aud the
Old World, the effects Of which
still continues The unsettled condition
of some CT the Central and South Ameri
can republics. the violent periodical out ,
breaks, and exhibitions Of national dis
content are among the chief causes
which contribute to keep the market
tight since the failure Of the Barring
Brothers, the great London bankers. All
the wholesale grocers of the city. Quigley
& Mullen, Harvey g. Sisler, Martin &
Dure and O. F. WEIGH & Co. state that
there are no Immediate prospects OF
relief from the depression of trade. The
morocco industry is still very dull, while
the shipbuilding and other industries are
by no means fourishing.

Play a Close Game of seven Innings.
Wilmington presented a much weaker
club in yesterdays base ball game than
1t has had at any time this season. The
Reading team WAS in good condition and
played fine fielding game Wilmington
saved itself by doing some timely batting
and, on account of this, the score stood
z to in favor Of Wilmington at the end
Of the seventh inning.
The Reading players came In from the
field at the end Of the seventh inning
and asked to be allowed to leave so that
they could catch the 5 40 train for home
This was refused them, and they started
Ia on regular batting streak, which was
encouraged by the erroneous playing OF
Wilmington's green" men. The runs
and errors were piled up Ia rapid sue
cession. When the agony of this inning
was over it was discovered that the ball
was ripped. and the Reading club re
fused to play any longer. Umpire Bel
ford then called the game back to the
end OF the seventh inning, with the
score as follows:
