A physician, writing in recent mum
Der of a hygienic publication, states that
cows milk is not u fit food for the human
stomach. He says that it forms into curds
in the stomach which are indigestible and
cannot be properly assimilated. He says
further that it is a food only suitable for
the animal for which it is intended-the
calf-which, having several stomachs, can
properly dispose of it. This, as far as it
goes, appears to be an overturning of the
hygienic teaching heretofore in respect to
foods. 1t has been impressed on the hui
man mind that cows milk is the ideal
food, containing all the constituents nee
cssary for human sustenancc. Persons
baye complained from time to time that it
did not agree with them; that it produced
biliousness and that they could not drink
it, but tho only reply was some plying
comment on the state of their stomach,
with the remark that ut doesn't agree
with some persons" The physician who
advances the new theory insists that it does
not agree with anybody.

WALCOTT WHIPS O'BRlEN.
CoIored Lad Wins His Second Match
From The Lewiston Boy.
Knocks Him Down Four Times and Our "iinin
Three Minutes.

Boston, Aug. 2S.-An audience Oh ~oo'
people witnessed the Walcott-O briel
boxing match, this evening, at the "e''
Newton Street armory, under the aus
pices of the Farragut CLUB, when re-
suited in the latters defeat in one round
Never in the history Of ring lights IN
Roston was there so much enthusiasm
manifested in a boxing exhibition as III
this one.
Toe Walcott of Boston, is the recognized
l40.pounds champion OF America anu
Dick o Br.eu of Lewiston, Me, is conslu-
cred one of the cleverest fighters IN the
same class. This was their second pght,
the first one ending in the eighth round
in Walcott s favor.
O'Brien had plenty of hackers about
the ring side, and from his appearance
there was a strong indication that ne
would put up great battle Walcote
showed himself to be the better fighter IN
every respect knocking his opponent
down four times during the round, ending
it in 2 minutes and 45 seconds.
The colored man was the first to enter
the ring with his seconds, Tom O'Rourke,
Morris Kelley and Joe Gordon, followed
shortly afterward by O'Brien. In his
corner were Billy Smith, Billy Hennessy
Ned McAvoy and Jimmy Kelly. Captain
Billy DAILY acted as referee, while Hand
some" Dan Murphy ofliciatcd with the
watch.
Both men came to the centre at the
sound of the gong. OBrien lost no time
and started in for Walcott with rush.
He landed his left lightly on the colored
mans face
That blow undoubtedly gave Walcott
the impression that his opponent wanted
to fight fast, for he measured his distance
and sent his left for O'Bricn's jaw, land
ing heavily. The force knocked him
across the ring. When he regained his
feet, Walcott followed it with similar
blow, dazing O'Brien and sending him
10 the fioor 1t was this punch that weak
encd O'Brien.
The timekceper counted seconds and
then 0 Brien again regained his feet but
staggered about. Walcott followed 1t
with another left in the jaw. Down went
O'Bren for the third time, but at the end
Of seconds, was on his feet.
As he pat mp his guard the spectators
acted wildly, the police were on their feet
and there was a Cry to stop the fight from
them. Before their wish was realized
Walcott planted the same left in the same
spot and o Bren went into oblivion for
the TINA being, He was assisted to his
corner where he remained few minutes,
ana then retired to his dressing room.
Mike Sears of Lewiston, Me-, and
Jimmy kaveney of Boston, opened the
entertainment with a six-round bout,
which WAS the finest exhibition of Sparring
seen in Boston for years. 1t was declared
Il draw.
Walcott declared his willingnes to box

Fall River made the worst showing of
any visiting team in the Maine series,
winning but one of the eight games.
Brockton won but one out of seven.
Pawtucket got five out of eight and New
Bedford broke even---four and four
Lewiston Sun The game at Lee park,
Monday between the Lewistons and the
Remedies, was not of the sensational
order, but it furnished good sport to an
interested audience. The contest was
close throughout. Both teams played
we'll and kept the result constantly in
doubt Manager Burnham brought only
nine men with him and had no right
fielder until he found kearins, a local
player. He sent Kearins into the game
and was so well pleased with his work
that he will probably be signed. Williams
pitched for Lewiston using his slow ball
with considerable effect Viau for the
visitors had barrel OF speed and was not
hit hard He was unfortunate, however,
in making a wild pitch in the sixth
inning which cost n run. Butler wild
throw to second in the fourth inning was
responsible for another run. Shea made
remarkable one-handed catch back of
third base in the fifth inning, and threw
t. first In time to shut eff the runner
I l he Remedies made hard struggle for
the game and succeeded In getting men
! to second and third in the SIXTH eighth
and ninth, but the hitting WAS so weak
| that runs did not follow.

A Dogs Grief For Its Master.

think the most pathetic thing that has
come under my notice occurred when I
was in the .icket office of the Grand
Trunk. 1t WIS there that one of my near.
est and dearest friends until his sudden
death was passenger agent. When went
to inquire the particulars of Phil Skaters
death, his dog came rushing in, hunted
every corner of the building for him and
was out like flash. Within Is minutes
that poor broken hearted animal was there
thrice and would pay no attention to any
hand nor dice while his master could not be-
found, and at the sad home on Gerard
street nothing but violence could restrain
that faithful animal from lying beneath
the collin or prevent him, with his paws
on the black box, from whining mourn
fully for tho word of recognition that he
would never hear again.
OF the great army of friends that Phil
Slater had in this city and all over the
province-and there never was a bigger
hearted, more generous or kindly man
how many Of US will remember him or
mourn for him as necessarily and with
such whole heartedness as that poor broken
hearted doga-Toronto Star.

that any agreement on the currency ques-
ton would result from an international
monetary conference at the present time
and that second abortive conference was
very undesirable, the German government
is reconsidering its plan forsthe reconven-
ing of another congress and it is expected
that the result of its deliberations will be
adverse to the proposal.
Herman Eckhart, German, aged 81,
was found on the floor of room in his
house on the Pratt road, Fitchburg,
Mass Wednesday, unconscious, with a
bullet hole in his forehead, having at

live, His wife short time ago left her
home and four children without an
nouncing her destination. She has since
been located in Manchester. n. H where
she is at work in mill. 1t is believed
that Mrs Eckhart was driven from home
by her husbands habits of into xication.
The Paris Figaro, Wednesdays declares
that the Waller affair is unimportant;
that Waller was only an American consul
through accident; that he never did well
and that his consular colleagues, in adj
dition to the natives, shuhned him. The
Figaro adds: Nothing serious can result
from the negotiations regarding bis con
domination, for he is not worth the
trouble The Castine incident is more
,e-ious; but any formal complaints
should come from France and not from
America, which Is entirely in the wrong.
Moreover. the American newspaper cam
paign in this connection is nothing but
an engine of election warfare without i'm
portance for us and aimed much more
against the President and Mr.. Eustis."

instance, been so pronounced by til. best

it surpasses, in curative power over this
fatal nialady, all other medicines with

A WONDERFUL ARTIST,
A Young Man Draws, Paints and Models
Successfully without Handa

Most young folks. even though they pos
soss the full use of their hands and have
natural talent for drawing, find success
in that art anything but easy. But what
will they think on hearing that the picture
here given Is the work of an artist entirely
without hands? Such it is according to
an English journal and the artist is Mr..
Bartram Hiles of London, who had both
arms taken off just below the elbow, after
a railway accident which occurred when he
was s years old.
Mr.. Hiles says he cannot remember q
time when he did not try to draw, but 1t
was only after recovering from his acct
dent that ho began serious work. His first
important picture was not only exhibited
at fine arts academy, but, what was more,
sold. From that time onward, while study
ing and exhibiting, Mr.. Hiles won for two
years national scholarship worth 100
guinoas and many valuable prizes. Out
of an exhibition of watercolor drawings
in 1898, 81 were sold, tho Princess of
Wales being among the purchasers, and,
more recently, the queen has bought two
d rawlings.

difficult to get the necessary steadiness for
