charges preferred against several players
OF the ;. a 9. eleven, completed its iabors
last night ia the board Of governors room

has been transcribed, amounts to some
thing Ike forty typewritten pages. and
this, with all the documents. Will be for

the committee. whose business affairs
would not permit Of his being present
After reviewing the case thoroughly Mr.

ion, and then the result viii be made
known publicly.
Before going into session in the club
room the committee visited Ben Donneiley
in his sickroom in the Victoria hotel and
took his sworn statement refuting the
charges set forth by the Townsend club
that he was professional. Donnelley de-
MED every charge made against him in a
tone that could not be mistaken The
committee then took up it's session in
the cluhrooms and after winding up & few
odds and ends President Prudential re-
viewed the whole matter from neutral
standpoint and asked the committee TO
arrive at decision as soon as possible.
To briefly sum mp the case. the Seattle
Athletic Club has met every charge with a
most emphatic denial and the belief
among athletes generally IS that there can
he but one result--dismissalo OF the charges.

Any one who has ever had an attack
of inf1ammatory rheumatism will rejoice
with Mr.. J. A. Stumm, 220 Boyle
Heights, Los Angeles, over his fortunate
escape from siege of that distressing
ailment. Mr.. Stumm is foreman of
Merrian's confectionery establishment.
Some months ago, on leaving the heated
work room to run across the street on an
errand, he was caught out in the rain.
The result was that when ready to go
home that night he was unable to walk,
owing to inflammatory rheumatism. He
was taken home, and on arrival was
placed in front of good fire and
thoroughly rubbed with Cham berlain's
Pain Balm. During the evening and
night he was repeatedly bathed with this
liniment, and by morning was relieved
of all rheumatic pains. He now takes
especial pleasure in praising Chamber
lain's Pain Balm, and always keeps a
bottle of it in the house. For sale by

guilty or innocent of the charge, Is a sub
ject for pathological treatment, and not
for the laws of vengeance. This course
is said to be contemplated by Sir Ed
ward Clarke in opposition to the wishes
of WIlde's relatives. Great secrecy Is
being observed in the matter and none
of those concerned will talk about il.
There is no suggestion that any of
Wilde's ancestors were afflicted, even in
remote way, with the form of degener-
acy attributed to him. The heriditary
problem is far more complex than that.
Many forms of nervous disease in parents
might produce in the child pathological
conditions that would, unless checked,
bring him within the reach of the law.
This is generally acknowledged by ply
sicians and the profession is delighted
at the prospect of this point of view be-
coming the issue at law.
Sir William Wilde, Oscars father, was
remarkably eccentric, although almost q
genius as an oculist and as an antiquar-
ian. Oscar Wilde has long been regarded
as subject of the form of insanity called
by the French ''folie ambitieuse" the
signs OF which are inordinate vanity and
thirst for notoriety.
