Toronto, Ont, Aug. 10.--A combined ef-
fort is about to be made by the city banks
to decrease the circulation Of American
bills in this city. At present the city Il
flooded with American silver certificates.
The following notice is posted in the Stan
dard Bank to-day.
ION and after Saturday, Aug. 10, Ameri-
can one-dollar bills will only be received
for 80 cents"
1t is understood that other banks Will
follow the example OF the Standard Bank
This action win probably result In a
much decreased circulation of American
bills in this city. In regard 10 American
silver most OF the city banks are not ac-
cepting II at all. Some Will accept Amer
ican silver only from customers, but only
I'm small amounts. The railway companies
refuse to handle II and departmental
stores are discussing the adVisability OF
refusing II as money.
Hamilton, ontario, Aug. 10.--Following
the example Of the Toronto banks, the
merchants local banks here have decided
to refuse 10 accept American silver and
silver certislcates. For years American
bills and currency have been accepted at
par by many merchants. United States
silver or silver certificates will not be ac-
cepted In payment OF city taxes. This ac-
tlon Is not due entirely 10 the silver ag-
ttation In the United States, but TO the
fact that at present there is too much
American silver IN circulation In Canada.

in COLLEGE ATHLETICS.
Conference at Chicago Produced
Some Gratifying Results,

Aside from the bluffing of Whitney, OF Har-
pers Weekly, into retraction of the charges
he made against the Minnesota university
football team, the chief work accomplished at
the recent conference of college athletes at
Chicago was the adoption of rule prohibiting
any student from playing who received COM
pensation for work received in the school, thus
shutting out the scholarship men. Another
new rule provides that no man shall be elig-
ible for team play unless he has attended the
institution six months during the preceding
year. This rule does not apply. of course, to
freshmen who have not played before.
Ed Moulton, who conditioned the Minnesota
football team last season, and who is now IN
der contract with the Minnesota university
to train the track athletic team in the spring.
has applied to the athletic managers for re-
lease from his contract. The reason is that
Moulton has been offered by the University of
Wisconsin q contract for about six weeks
longer engagement, and this involves much
greater remuneration for the spring work.
Alfred q. Bull, captain of the University of
Pennsylvania varsity eight, has resigned. He
has rowed in the varsity boat for the past
three years, and is an enthusiastic believer in
the efficiency of the Woodruff stroke, which
is a modified Cook stroke. When Ellis
Ward was selected as coach of the crew few
days ago, 1T was announced that the Wood
ruff stroke would be abandoned and a
stroke taught by Ward substituted for it.
The Toronto University Athletic association
will be represented at the Olympian games in
Athens, Greece, next April by J. Keele, lee.
turer in of the affiliated colleges Mr.
Keele is a noted fencer, and in that art he
will strive to uphold the varsity.

in his bill until after Easter when
THE Professors Love Story will be
withdrawn and the new play by Hen
ry Arthur Jones substituted. "The
Professors Love Story" is now near
ing its 250th London presentation. The
new Lyceum play, which is an En-
glish version of Coppees Pour la
Couronne, will be produced on
Wednesday, Feb. 26. BY an arrange
ment with Comyns Carr, Winifred
Emery will assume the leading part,
while Mrs. Patrick Campbell will as
sumo a minor role. Forbes Robert
son has recently been in Paris for the
purpose of witnessing the production
of this play at the Theater de POdeon.
The management promises that the
play shall be much better mounted
and costumed in London than it was
in Paris. Mr.. Robertson gives as his
reasons why the idea of producing
"Othello' was abandoned that, as the
expense would be great and his lease
of the Lyceum is limited to Irving's
return. the undertaking is not war
ranted.

they represented, although it is a ques-
money they cost.
While 1t is not certain that the abo-
lition of the B class will abolish hip
podroming. as long as the crack cyclist
is made up as he Is, generically speak
ing. now, yet it will not be gainsaid
that Class B has been a prolific field
for hippodromes, and the patrons of
sport a-wheel have grown tired Of pay
ing good money to see 2-minute men
make miles in competition in 2:15 or
longer day after day. It is not reason
able to expect a record-breaking every
time men go on the track, and no one
does, but when in bunch Of cracks
who have been among the 1:50's, none
of them go under 2:10. the man who
bought a ticket will be sorely tempted
to Intimate that there is a negro in the
wood pile, or box Office, or elsewhere.
And he need only have one guess.
Of course it is sad to deprive Car
Gideon, of the racing board, of his rare
privilege Of dumping class A men into
B, or BIS into rank professional at his
own sweet will, but he will doubtless
find other methods Of keeping his name
before the public, and anyway, the
public can get along. Bulletins from
racing board headquarters hereafter
will be shorter, and perhaps Mr.. Gid
con will have more time to look after
records claimed and decide as to, the
authenticity of alleged crashes within
two or three weeks from the time the
rider crosses the tape.

still ride wheels, so that the manu-

Paul fencer will have to keep keen look
out IL he would hold the championship in
ST. Paul after tomorrow night. 1t should
prove rare treat in the way Of athletics,
as both men are among the cleverest fencers
in the country. Each will exert every muscle
and nerve to excel over the other. and so a
hot and spirited passage at arms can but be
the result, If such a contest is on its merits.
This one is said to be. and it probably is,
as there exists such rivalry. Mallett is by
long odds the fayorite, owing, no doubt, prin-
cipaily to his popularity in the art here and
the signal success he has made with the foil
enthusiast on fencing, and practically brought
this art to the front in this city.

for the entire lot. Mr.. Graves, after
leaving the Office of the insurance COM

THEY RIDICULE IT.
MANY PEOPLE RIDICULE THE IDEA
OF AN ABSOLUTE CURE FOR
DYSPEPSIA AND STOMACH
TROUBLES.
RfdicuIe, However, Is Not Argument,
and Facts Are Stubborn Things.

Stomach troubles are so common and
in many cases so obstinate to- cure
that people are apt to look with sus-
picion on any remedy claiming to be
a radical permanent cure for dySpep-
sia and indigestion. Many such pride
themselves on their acuteness in never
being humbugged, especially on medi-
cines.
This fear Of being humbugged may
be carried too far; so far, in fact,
that many persons suffer for years
with weak digestion rather than risk
little time and money in faithfully
testing the claims Of a preparation
so reliable and universally used as
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
Now Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
vastly different in one important re-
spect from ordinary proprietary medi-
cines for the reason that they are not
a secret patent medicine. no secret is
made Of their ingredients, but analy-
sis shows them to contain the natural
digestive ferments, pure asepiic pep
sin, the digestive acids, Golden Seal,
bismuth, hydrastis and nux They are
not cathartic, neither do they act
powerfully on any organ, but they cure
indigestion on the common sense plan
of digesting the food eaten promptly,
thoroughly. before it has time to fer
ment, sour and cause the mischief.
This is the only secret of their success.
Cathartic pills never have and
never can cure indigestion and stom-
ach troubles because they act entirely
upon the bowels, whereas the whole
trouble is really in the stomach.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, taken
after meals, digest the food. That is
all there is to it. Food not digested
or half digested is poison, as it ere
ates gas, acieity, headaches. palpita-
ton of the heart, loss of flesh and ap-
petite, and many other troubles which
are often called by. some other name
