Dyspepsia

The explanation is simple. 1t is found in
that impure blood which is contin-
ually feeding the nerves upon refuse
instead of the elements of strength and
vigor. In such condition opiate and
nerve compounds simply deaden and
do not cure. Hoods Sarsaparilla feeds
the nerves pure, rich, red blood; gives
natural sleep, perfect digestion, is the
true remedy for all nervous troubles.

SPORTING.

George E. Foster, NJ. Austin, jr., and F.
b. Putnam, who attended the bicycle races
at Cambridge, Mass, Saturday, inter-
viewed the leading professionals in regard
to coming to BrattleborO Aug. 27. Bald,
Nat Butler, Tom Butler and others ex-
pressed wish to ride here again.
"Ham' Brock of ST. Johnsbury, as the
driver of Barney, 2:0s4, met his first de-
feat of the season at Haverhill, Mass,
Saturday, the victor being Brooks old ia
vorite, Gil Curry, the gray ghost. Gil
Curry was driven by Haley, his owner,
and finished first in straight heats.
The spring meeting of the National Rifle
club was held at Vernon last week. C. F.
Fletcher of West Claremont, n. b., won
the silver medal. Other prize winners
were F. w. Winters and A. D. Spencer of
Trenton, Pa, n. S. Brockway of Bellows
Falls, r. c. Cressy of Brattleboro, and D.
81. Cox of Neperan, n. Y.
The Turner'S Falls, Mass, fremen bid
fair to have a successful muster and field
day on the park of the driving association
on July 4. About 5000 in prizes will be
given TO competing companies in running
races, and assurances have been received
from a number of organizations in North
ampton, Westfield, Chicopee, Holyoke and
other places that they will compete.
G. W. Scanlon, formerly of West Brat
tleboro, made a good showing in the bicy-
Gle races at Westfeld, Mass, Saturday
He was second in the Westfield champion
ship, which was run in 1922. He was also
second in the trial heats of the mile open
and mile three minute class, but failed of a
place in the finals. Stowe of Conway won
the half mile open, and Foulds of Spring
field the mile open, Elmer of Chicopee be-
ing second in the latter race.
The interscholastic athletic meet at Han
over last week was a great surprise to the
larger institutions like the Manchester,
Concord and Haverhill High schools, Yer
mont and st. Johnsbury academies, etc.
Windsor High school, which won the PEN
nant, has only about 20 boy students.
That this little band could turn out an ath-
letic team that defeated schools with more
than 10 times as many young men to draw
from is little less than marvellous. The
Windsor boys were undoubtedly aided by
the fact of their school battles each year
for the supremacy with the High schools
of Claremont and Bellows Falls. Newton,
the Randolph High school boy, who won
the half-mile and mile runs, may enter
these events at the National Interscholas-
tic meet in New York city. Newton ran
his half mile at Hanover in 2:06 and was
not pushed He can do the half close to
two minutes and the mile in less than 4 40.

George NJ. Frye, who shot f. r. Cobb on
Exchange street at Athol, Mass. Thurs
day night of last week, was arraigned in
the district court Friday. He was bound
over to the superior court, bail being fixed
at $1,000. In default of bail he was lodged
in the Jail at Fitchburg. The following
are the real facts of the case:
Daniel Bosworth and F. II. Cobb were
seated in A. j. Hooper's Exchange street
restaurant at a late hour. George NJ. FRYE
was seated at another table.
During the conversation of Bosworth and
Cobb the latter accused Frye of being a
member of the A. p. A.
so boisterous did the conversation be-
come that the proprietor asked the men to
leave the restaurant. As Frye went out he
hurled an insulting epithet at Cobb, who
Immediately followed him into the street.
The two shots were heard at once.
Cobb came back into the room. saving,
I'm shot, He complained of pain in his
right breast, and on examination of hi,
coat a bullet hole was found. Cobb walked
to a physicians office, where the wound
was dressed. The physician thinks that
NuioSo olOod poloOuluH sets III lle wound
will not prove very serious. Had the wound
been little lower it would have proved
fatal.
Night Waterman Smith was on the street
not far from the two men when the shoot
ing took place He thinks that Frye fired
once in the air, then turned, pointed his
pistol at Cobb and shot.
Deputy Sheriff Doane and Officer Smith
went to Frye's rooms about , O'Clock and
took him into custody. His revolver, an
ugly 3S.calibre weapon, was also taken. 1t
is said that Frye has been in the habit of
carrying this weapon constantly. Frye has
been in trouble several times before and at
one time had part of one ear bitten and
torn of by young man. Cobb is a we'll
known Exchange street blacksmith.
Mr.. and Mrs. A. r. Cobb of Brattleboro,
who went to Athol as soon as they received
news of the shooting of their son, have
since accompanied him to Boston, where it
is hoped that the surgeons will be able to
locate the bullet.

THE GREEN MOUNTAIN STATE.

St. Paul Dispatch: Vermont
mas sounded the death knell of
Bryan and Organism. The nearly
10000 majority which the Green
Mountain state has given her Re.
publican candidate for governor
shows tibet the farmers and sheep
growers of that state believe in
protection and sound money as
absolute principles of national
prosperity and safety. =
Vermont has no large cities to
overslargh the rural vote and
give a false appearance to the
sentiment Of the farming popula-
ton. Vermont believes in
Nc Kinleylsm, and when November
comes it need be no surprise if the
Republican majority reaches Sc, 900.
Maine will be the next New
England state to speak, and as the
tide is now running at will be as
emphatic for protection and sound
money as il the Green Mountain
state.
