Gladness Comes

With n better understanding of the
Wv transient nature of the many phys
ical ills, which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentlc efforts-pleasant efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that so many forms of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to \ constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
ly removes. That Is why il is the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed SO highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due TO the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without facilitating the
organs on which it acts II is therefore
all important, in order to get it's bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine arti-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, laXatives or
other remedies are then not needed. If
afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended TO the most sliillful
physicians, but if in need of laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup of
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction.

LORD DUNRAvEN.s CHARGES.
The New York Yacht Club Committee
Finds Them Not Sustained.

The New York World says:
1T was learned late last night from a
member Of the New York Yacht Club, who
IS in a position to know, that copy OF the
report of the committee that has inves.i-
gated Lord Dunravens charges had been
placed in the hands of Commodore Edward
NJ. Brown yesterday. The commodore, it
is said, will call a meeting OF the club, at
which the report Will be read to the men,
bers. 1t covers about one hundred pages.
While the decision is adverse to Lord
Dunraven, it censures him only mildly for
bringing the charges. This, it was said,
will not be satisfactory to most of the
members of the club, who feel very bitter
ae ai1st tie Valkyrie's owner. There is a
small chance of the report being made pub
&c before at least another fortnight. The
reason for the delay is that the committee
wishes to have it published simultaneously
on botn sides of the Atlantic.
Before the report is made public il viii
be submitted to the Royal Yacht Squadron
for that organizations inspection and ac-
tion. Mr.. Iselin is due in London next
Wednesday, and there is high authority
for the statement that he will be the New
York Yacht Clubs agent III presenting the
report to the Royal Yacht Squadron.

BILLIONS OF MOVES.
stuDendous Figures About the POssi.

stupendous Figures About the Fossil
bilfties of Chess.
From the Literary Digest.
Mr.. Edwyn Anthony has attempted to CAL
culate the number of moves on the chess
board. He starts with the fact that each
player has twenty possible moves, from
which he must select his first move He
then tells US that the number of possible
ways Of p sying the first four moves only,
on each side. would be 31S9T9, 56i, eco
IT. then, any one were to play without
cessation at the rate of one set a minute. It
would take him more than 100000 years to
go through them all. The number of ways
OF playing the first ten moves on each side
Is 169,51SS 500 100 544 000. .0O0 COO 600 GOO These
figures are probably In defect rather than
N excess, OF the actual number. On their
basis, however, and considering the popula-
ton Of the whole world to be 1,4sS, 600, 600
Oevaseur's estimate), more than 217. .OOO.-
100000 years would be needed to go through
them all. even IL every man, woman ana
child on tte face Of the globe played with
out cessation for that enormous period at
the rate of one set per minute and NO set
was repeated"

JUDGE MORRISON's DRINK CURE.

Experience shows That He Has
Something Better Than a Pledge.
Frsu, t.rc Chicago Record
Police Magistrate L. L. Morrison Of this
city runs the most unique Justice miH' in
the state having for eight years conducted
a court en- the principle that horse sense is
better than straight law. As a humorist
AID satirist Justice Morrison has given his
court a reputation that is more than lecaL
Ii Is as a reforTner, however that he has
set an example that is being followed In
mlny small places throughout the country.
In Rockford. as in most small cities, the
majority OF police court habitues are
individuals who are slaves to the drink
habit The ordinary way of s,saling with
such persons has beer to dismiss them with
a curt ten days" but Justice Morrison
found that this could be improved upon in
a city of the size of Rockford. Men who
provide for Their families when not drunk
have been forced TO leave wife and children
to starve when committed 10 jail or else
their release has been bought by money
that should have beea speat in buying nee
essIr.eS of life.
Justice Morrison, instead of fining these
men or committing thaO to Jail, raiea ses
them upon con Hilton that they report at Do
Rec headquar .erS three times day Eyery
morning, noon and night the victim is com
peeled TO report at headquarters, sign mis-
name on a book, and submit his breath to
the nose of an officer capable of telling the
smell of alcohol at forty rods. If the VIC
tim has lapse1 into his old habits he is
committed and compelled to work out his
fire.
On being first brought up for hearing he Is
given his alternative between making these
reports or of being committed to Jail, and of
course he takes the former course. AS a re-
suit, nearly all the inebriates of Rockford
have had long session of reporting, with
the most beneficial results. They have rare
ly lapsed into their old habits while report
ing TO the police Several small towns in
the state have already adopted the Morri-
son reporting plan, and the judge receives
many inquiries from Justices of distant
cities inquiring as to its efficacy.

Reinstatenaent of wefer..
Discussing an Old Tooth Brush.
from the American Nafnr,Hiist

The appointment OF ams teurs and unsci-
entific persons to positions In scientific
bodies often has ludicrous results. The
Academy of Science discussed an ancient
bone dredged up in salt water. It was per
forated with fessae in series, and IL was
concluded that it was mouth bone of a
fossil ffsA. It turned out to be the head of
an ancieat .teofh brush. An ex1sitifiun of
foot tracks On ancient rocks before the
same academy brought to his feet a dane
ing master, who illustrated the formatien
of the fmpI essions terpsi:horean fashion.

them, and il they do better than one game
week many wiseacres will be fooled.
To sum up the situation, there are eight
clubs entitled to the first division, which has
room for only six. Luck will play a promi-
nent part in the standing of the clubs, Snd
the ones that sleep under lucky stars viii
have something to be thankful for. 1t is to
be hoped that the Senators will be among
this class. as their hoodoo rarely lost sight
of them last season.

The games arranged for next week are
as follows: Monday, Carroll Institute with
Washington Athletic Club, at Carroll In
stitute; Saturday. Eastern Cycle Club with
Young Mems Christian Association, at the
formers club house.
According to the present schedule games
are arranged up to the last day IN Feb
ruary. there just being fourteen more
games to be played. AS the time for the
end of the schedule approaches there Is a
general belief that supplemental schei-
ule will be arranged to carry the series
through March and possibly April
The league has lost one Of its playing
grounds in the occupation of the shooting
gallery Of the National Guard Armory for
rifle practice, but it has also gained a
place In the club house Of the Eastern
Athletic Club. formerly the Potomac
Wheelmen. At present there are four
available places for the use Of the league,
these places being the Carroll Institute.
Washington Athletic Club. Light Infantry
ard tie Eastern Athletic Club.
The silver trophy cup offered by DR..
Schafhirt for the team winning the cham
pionship is the center attraction. While
the game Is still young, from the present
tate of progress it looks very much
though the Light Infantry team will carry
off the honors.
the Military Cyclists team. has been In
capacitated for work for some time on
account of an injury to his leg. He made
his first appearance in the game Wednes-
udy H1SNt.
The exhibition given Tuesday evening at
Carroll Institute, when the team Of that
club played the Light Infantry boys, was
disgusting, and resembled more q prize
fight than a scientific game. Such meet
ings as these are bound to break UP the
league.
1t is understood that a movement is on
foot to organize q basket ball team among
the athletes of the Columbia Athletic Club
This Is not probable, however, as the move
ment has been started too late. 1t Is pos
sible. however, that the club will organize
a team and enter the league next year.
Another possibility next year is the start
ing Of basket Dall league among the var!-
GUS companies of the National Guard. This
ma tier was agitatsd early in the season, but
nothing was done in the matter. The project
was practically killed by the occupation Of
the shooting gallery fer rife practice. With
the experience of the present season, as
cleaned by the existing league. 1t Is likely
that National Guard league will be organ
lied and doomed for all it is worth.

one ever charged them with being good
fieiders, outside of Dahlen and Lanye. This
IS the one club that the Senators have a
chance of pushing into tenth place.
Just where Won Der Abe expects his team

players, and in return Is getting men who

Pi1Isbury's Failure.

The downfallo of Che American. Pinsbury,
at St. Petersb,Gg. causes regret to all Io--
ers of the game, In this country; it might be
added. to the Russians as well. for, next to
their own Tschigefin. they desired to see
the native Ameficah carry of first honors,
bis modest, gshtlemanly bearing having
made him a favoItte,. Pillsbury has lost
the last FIVE gamea played by him. Ever
since entering IN tie fourth round, or sec
ond half of the tostrnament, his play has
been In striking contrast to the form shown
previously; It las, lacked spirit. his com
is partly. il nRt entirely, due to the fact
that he has suffered from the Russian In
fuenza On mere than one occasion he has
apparently been in unfit condition for play
He Is the onfy competitor who has not
awaited himself of the privilege Of adjourn
ing a game His chances now of coming
in first are very slight. There remain but
four games to be played, and Lasker's lead
of two and half games can hardly be
overcome, unless he should win the two
games yet to be played with Lasker Pills
bury has not won game from Steinitz,
while the veteran has won three of the FIVE
games played between them, and drawn
the other two. ..l

Frank Foreman says that the taking of
Carey off first will hurt instead of help the
Baltmores. He says that Doyle's great
batting and base running will not result in
as great beneht to the team as would
Carey's sensational fielding. Frank SAYS
that his brother Johnnie will be the star
pitcher among the youngsters of the league
next season.
Last season Tebeau claimed that in the
opening series Cleveland would take three

preciatingly of the Cincinnati team that

STAND BY THE TICKET.

The advices received at the fusion
headquarters OF this county show that
the battle is won, aid that every man on
the ticket can I've elected 1t is not
necessary to trade votes to elect any one
OF them, neither is it necessary, in order
to accommodate friend, to give away
any votes and run the chance OF defeat.
Ordinarily. in county matters, Il straight
ticket is not SO essential but this year q
great principle is involved, and every
man in favor of the lem onetization Of
silver should vote the Peoples Party
ticket without scratch, especially as
every man on that ticket is the equal Of
his Republican opponent.
Especially would we caution Democrats
against voting for the so.called Demo.
cratic electors. Such a vote means q
vote for Palmer and Bnckner, and against
the true Democracy rs represented by
William Jennings Byran.
The candidates OF the silver forces
have been before you for near.y two
months. Ii there was any real reason
why any one OF them was not tit per
son to serve you. the opposition would
have made known that fact long before
this. You can therefore safely set down
any attack they may now make as lie,
made out OF whole cloth. For ourselves.
We have been unable TO discover any
such reason. and therefore we repeat
that any charge the opposition may now
bring against any Of our candidates is
absolutely false.
BE sure TO vote and see that your votes
are counted. The Republicans have
absolute control. and in some instances
have refused to give us any representa-.
tion whatever on the canvassing boards
therefore, be vigiant and see that an
honest return is made. BE sure, also, to
see that every silver vote in your pre-
cnct is cast. Let not one be omitted
through Indifference or by reason OF any
thing which can be overcome. lie, every
man be at the polls early. So none may
he left when the polls close. AS be;ore
said. the opposition have the election
boards in their hands, and they will
show you no merry ii you are late
