So Many People?
4 Fiece Of News For Those Who Have Weak
Stumachs.

The stomach, liver and bowels cause
more trouble than any other part of the
body. There are thousands of persons
whose food don't do them the good it
should. They have bad taste in mouth ,
coated tongue, constipation, gas in stomach,
fulns IS or distress after meals, blonting and
belching of wind. They often have head
ache, are weak and nervous. have sallow
compilations and can't sleep. Frank Pierce

Inflammation of the stomach. was in so

New York broke another record By
turning out SO, 500 spectators in three
successive days Nineteen thousand SAW
the great Boston New York game on Fri
day, Aug 81 the greatest nonholiday
crowd ever seen on hallfeld. Next day
10 OoO collected at the Polo grounds, and
on Labor day the number reached 90, 800.
In the history of the professional game
nothing like this enthusiasm has been
seen.
Rnce has been worked up by the New York
teams well earned reputation of making
Garrison finishes. Nothing like it's work
in that respect has ever been accomplished
by another team Just recall the circum-
stances. In the last Boston series the
New Yorks tied the score of the second
game with two out in the ninth inning
and won it in the tenth. In tho third
game they snatchcd victory from defeat
in the last inning by tying the score on
playof of Friday, Aug. 81, when, with
the score q tie, to 1, they battod out four
earned runs off Nichols in the eighth in
ming.
Among the other notable pullouts must
not be forgotten tho game with the Brook
lyns when after two were out in the ninth
inning they pounded out the four runs
needed to win, and off STEMS delivery at
that. This characteristic work was kept
up at the Polo grounds in their closing
series with the Pittsburgs. In the first
game they began the last half of the ninth
Ia
for three bases, Mcekin for a home run
and Burke for triple, which, with a sac
rifice, won the game. Tho last game of
tho year in New York was still more re-
markable. In eight innings the Giants
had hit Gunbert safely only six times.
When they went to bat in the last half of
the ninth, the score stood 5 to / against
them. But Farrell hit the first ball pitch
cd for base and the next ball Gumbert
sent over, though it was four inches out
side of the plate, Moekin sent to the linz
its of the outfield for homer and the
game.
In conclusion, am led to recall the
great batting feats which the unfortunate
Jim Devlin in his day Of success accom-
plished. He frequently won his own
games by batting. No pitcher whom tho
League ever produced mas approached DeV-
Inns record in that respect until Mcekin
this season made a bid for the honor. The
New Albany boy has won half dozen
games for his team by hitting hard just
when the hit was needed. Great pitchers
who are also good batsmen have always
been scarce. Therefore Meekin stands
high in his class. He is model man in
private life, and such players are worthy
of the honors which spectators bcstow
upon them. y. p. CAYLoR.
