MIR. O'NEIL'S LATEST.
]. Palmer Sells so Shares Of Local
Ball Club Stock,
BUT HE is STILL In THE RING.
c. I. Powers to Replace Jim Mutrie as MAN.
ager of the New Yorks.
GENERAL SPORTING NEWS OF THE DAY

Readers of THE DISPATCH will not be
surprised to learn that j. Palmer O'Neil
sold almos. all his stock in the local base
club yesterday A few days ago this paper
stated conclusively that Mr.. F. E. Bald
win, Mark Baldwin's father, was negoti-
ating for Mr.. O'Neil's stock. Yesterday
Mr.. O'Neil sold so shares for $1,000. the
purchaser being Mr.. Baldwin. 1t may be
that the deal will lead to more significant
results but for the present Mr.. ONeil says
his transaction has no ulterior meaning.
1t may have, nevertheless.
Mr. Baldwin is now full 1edged stock
holder OF the club, and as he has taken an
active interest in baseball for many years
the club will probably be benefited by his
appearance as one of its capitalists. He is
an enthusiast as tar as the national game is
concerned, and every inch a gentleman. He
ably a worse step might be made by the
present powers than making him local
lnagnate. The fact of Mark being one OF the
team will have no effect on the father.
The public need not for a moment think
that Mr.. O'Neil is out of it entirely. He is
not. He has sufficient stock left yet to quail
ify him director and he will remain one
until he is voted out. He is willing to rep
resent the club at the National League
meeting if the balance of the directors want
him to do so. He is one of the National
League and will, therefore, be at the annual
meeting. He had a long talk with Calvin
yesterday, and it is probable that Jimmys
trouble with the club will be settled shortly.

Some Close Work

The first half was played without point
being scored. The home team had one or
two good chances and were within ten yards
OF the Dayton's goal, but a touch down
couldn't be made. W. McClintock played
admirably, but he was not supported as well
as he might have been. The scrimmages
were extremely lively.
In the second half the crowd and players
besame considerably excited. The local
rush line showed Signs of Weakness and the
visitors began like demons. Before MANY
minutes passed 4. Dickey made Il splendid
touch down, and ID. Bickham kicked goal.
Then the struggle became more exciting
than ever. The home players braced up and
their rushing and tackling were very much
improved. About Is minutes before time
was up Slagle, for the visitors. got the ball
and made great run, but Just as he got be-
hind the lire he dropped the ball and a touch
back was the result, McClintock getting the
ball. The Pittsburrers were ordered to the
25-yard-line and the Dayton fellows so far
lost their head that as soon as the hall was
put into play they allowed Ollie Thompson
10 make a touch Gown. Thompson kicked
goal and tied the score. Time was then up.
OF course there was great excitement, the
visitors obiectinG to the play, but the RE-
cree declared it legal. The final score was:
Three AS. q; Dayton, G.
Last evening referee McCord stated that
he had written for advice regarding his de-
ciSiOn which gave the Three AS touch
down and goal 1t is likely that the deci-
SION will be reversed, as he says he did not
see the ball in play.

PERSONAL ATTENTION,

Continued Evidence of the Results OBJ
tanned by the SkilIful Personal Care and
Attention of Drs. Copeland and Hall
When the tendency of the catarrhal prog.
ress is evidently to the chest and lungs,
and the hacking cough, loss of flesh, pains
in the chest, and failing strength give their
unmistakable evidence of predisposition
to consumption, the patient should spare no
pains and lose no time in arressin2 what is
practical and imminent danger. With the
coming on of a winter, which. if the predic-
tions OF the weather prophets are true, VIII
be an unusually severe one, the care OF cases
like these becomes of even more than usual
Importance. Catarrh and consumption,
which go hand in hand, in this climate OF
ours, should be met at this season with the
most faithful, persistent and skillful care.

HARVARD TEAMS PROSPECTS.
Some Gossip About the Varsity Football
PLAYERS and Their Practice.

Some Gossip About the Varsity Football
Players and Their Practice.
CAMBRIDGE, Nov. 7-[Speciat lit is hard to
see how Harvard's eleven can possibly play
good team game in the battle with Yale
Team work is the result OF acquaintance
ana familiarity which players get with each
others ways. This familiarity cannot be ac-
qEired when the men who are expected to
play eventually are not getting the practice
OF those positions Gailv. Not until Tuesday
can the first real progress in team work
begin. The eleven will then be ready for
the final preparation. Their makeup de-
pUnds on many contingencies. Dan Shea
can be considered as not q possibility, as he
still has water on the knee and Will not play
any more this year. The appearance of Joe
Upton has started the report that he was
going into training for his old place at left
tackle. That is an impossiDllity, however.
as he is so much reduced from the typhoid
fever that he is only just able TO crawl
around.
The only two positions in the rush line
that can he considered a settled are right
end with lIallerwell and right tackle with
Newell. 1t Is safe to say tnat no teams IN
the country have a. better right wing. On
the left, Emmons or Mason Will hold this
end with one o: them or Waters at tackle.
1t is at half back that Harvard will loom
up at Springfield, but brilliant half backs
fatally weak spots. Here il a quartet half
backs as good as any college ever showed:
Lake Corbert Fearing and GRAY. Back of
all Captain Tra1ford will play. The respon-
sibllities of his position do not seem to inter-
fere with the game which he has formerly
last year, rs he does considerable rushing

THE FIVE DOLLAR Rate
EXTENDED FOR THE REMAINDER OF
THE YEAR, BUT CONFINED TO
CATARRHAL TROUBLES.

In the almost overwhelming response
made to the offers of Drs. Copeland and Hall
during the last two months to treat ALL DIS
EASES and furnish medicines at the uniform
rnte OF IS n month, there was abundant evil
oence that the public appreciates the medi-
cal skill that is made accessible to all, rich
and poor alike. The strength of the physi-
clans and the resources of their laboratories
nave been taxed to their utmost. Drs. Cope
Iand and Hall would gladly continue the
rate as 1t stands, but to meet the demands it
OCCASIONS is almost IL practica. impossibilitv.
Ihey have decided, however, to show their
recognition of the popularity of the method
lnaugnrated by continuing for the re-
1na1nder OF the year the five dollar rate FOR
CATARRHAL TROUBLES ALONE. Their charges
Ior tine treatment of other diseases will be
moderate and in proportion to the cost of
the medicines required, and for the re-
malnoer OF the year-up to January 1.-The
charges Tor medicines and treatment for
catarrh will be the same as in the past two
