P. P. p, Lippman's Great Remedy, Saves
Man From Becoming Cripple.

, Mr.. Asa hmmons, a well known
citizen of Jacksonville, Florida, was
afflicted by terrible ulcer. Medical
skill seemed unavailing in stopping the
ravages of the terrible disease. The
leg was swollen and intensely painful,
as the ulcer had eaten its way down
to the very bone. All medicines and
treatments having failed TO effect a
cure, the doctors said the leg must
come off. Just when IL seemed that
Mr.. Ammons would become disabled
and crippled man, he tried L. p p,

suit was wonderful.

MEDFORD (Mass.), Sept. 1S.-Star
Pointer, at Mystic Point this afternoon,
not only bested two accredited faster
horses, Robert j. (2:021a) and Frank
Agan (2:O3&4), but paced the three
fastest heats ever made in competi-
ton, the time being 2:O21a, 2:OS 1-3,
and 2:03a4, an average of 2:03A,. He
also lowered the worlds record for
the fastest heat ever paced, 2:O21a, as
well as the records for the fastest quar-
ter and half-2934 and 59S4 seconds
respectively.
The race between the three PAGERS
was phenomenal, for while in the first
heat Robert ]. was beaten by ten
lengths, in the next two he was close
on the leaders, coming in second in the
third heat. Frank Agan, in the whole
race, was never length behind, and
at one time was a nose to the good.
Star Pointer, however, managed to go
under the wire first in every heat, and
must have had something in reserve,
for McCleary never raised his whip in
the three heats.
1t was shortly after o'clock when
the gong ran for the PAGERS. Robert
J. was the favorite, 100 to 200, with
Agan So to 200, and Star Pointer 80 to
200 Star Pointer had the pole, and
after two attempts the three were sent
away well punched. The pace from
the start was terrific, much too fast
for Robert j., who dropped behind the
other two, being five lengths in the
rear at the first quarter, which was
made in 29$4 seconds. Pointer and
Agan were neck and neck all the way
down the back stretch, making the
half in 0:59%, with Robert j. still fur
Their behind. The three-quarter pole
was reached in 1:311a, with Pointer
slightly in the lead and notwithstand-
ing the fact that Mccarthy applied the
whip, the son of Flora could not reach
Pointer, and the two rushed under the
wire in the record breaking time Of
2:0212 Robert J. was ten lengths be,
hind.
The second heat was still more ex-
citing, Frank Agan poked his nose in
front of Pointer in the back stretch,
but it was only for a moment, and
with a little burst of speed Pointer
soon regained his place. Robert J.
showed up much better in this heat
and was closed on Agan all the way
through. The quarter was made in
OBI, the half in 1:O2, the third in 1:33
and the mile in 2:0215.
In the third heat Pointer lead from
the start, but Robert ]. managed to
overtake Agan at the three-quarter
pole and the last furlong was the most
exciting of the whole day. Pointer,
however, won the heat and race by a
nose in 2:O314, and the three-quarters
in 1921

THAT ALASKAN BOUNDARY.
General Dumeld Gives some Opinions
of His observations.

of His Observations.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 1S.-General
Duffield, Superintendent of the Coast
and Geodetic Survey, has just returned
10 his duties in Washington after an
extended trip along the Pacific coast
and through parts of Alaska. He said:
The question of the exact termina
ton of the boundary line is now pretty
we'll settled All doubts cast by refer
ence to mountain chains or ranges
near the. coast, along the panhandle,
have been disposed of, as it has been
found that there are only two groups
of elevations that can be even remotely
considered as mountain chains, the one
being the Mount St. Elias chain and the
other the Treadwell chain. The first is
conceded to be on British soil, while
the latter cannot be brought into dis
cussion with any dignity, as it is sim
ply group of peaks. The maps pre-
pared by the joint commission named
by this country and Great Britain to
explore the country are now in the
hands Of the two governments, and
| have just been informed that negotia-
tons are about completed looking to
the selection of a joint commission to
strike the line between the two coun-
tries from the maps submitted.
THE commission named to prepare
the maps went into the field so divided
in each case that each American party
had British representative, while an
American was present in each British
surveying party to look after the inter
ests of this country. AS result abso-
lutte fairness was secured, and the re-
suits can be depended on for accuracy.
The gold thus far found is all west of
the meridian line, and SO far none has
been discovered in the possessions of
her majesty. The placer mining is all
done along the head waters of Birch
creek, Forty-mile creek and Six-mile
creek. Birch creek is, l judge from my
observations, wholly west of the line
Forty-mile creek crosses the line into
British territory before emptying into
the Yukon, as do also the western head
waters of Sixty-mile creek, but no gold
has been found in either stream on the
British side of the line, all operations
being confined to the field near the
sources of these creeks"

Cruelty TO sailors.

BOSTON, Sept. 19.-Sixteen mem
bers OF the crew of the British ship
warren, Captain Kitchen, which has
just arrived, have preferred charges
against the captain, second mate and
steward, which, if true, indicate un-
usual brutality and cruelty. The COM
plant of the men in substance is that
on several occasions when sailing from
Manila last December the second mate
and steward beat the men numerically
with Delaying pins, besides setting the
captains dog on them. The dog, &C
cording to the crew, is ferocious Rus
sian hound, trained especially to ter
rorlze the men on board the ship.
