 Your popular correspondent W. c. Tyler is still very low with fever. He is receiving constant care and atten- fen and his legion of friends hope for his speedy recovery.
 The excursion special sent down in the morning laden with the Bi.bee ball plsyers and large crowd of admir- CTS who went with them to Tom bstore returned in the evening. They were met by O large crowd at the dero. who were anxious to learn the result They soon learned how badly tEe Tom bstones weres nowed under and all joined ia the good cheer. IL vas pro- bably the jolliest crowd that ever came to Bisbee and vhy should it net be 60 :--their faycrities had won and the championship penuant remains in Bisbee. Baseball is the topic oi con- versatiou ani i, is understood the entire territory will be challenged al once. Another taiug noticeable was the amount si money brought over. Nearly everyone seemed to have won on the game, one man clearing over $50 on his judgement. The Bisbee- itee made a glorious victory, however they all assert that they were royalty trrated at the county seat, ss they always are. and their friends, the enemy, accepted defeat philosophic- ally.

My mother was subject to sick head
aches and indigestion for over wear.
She was unable to stand for any length
OF time, and was Obliged to stay in a dark
room as she could not bear the light. She
had no appetite whatever and her stomach
was 80 weak she could not retain what
food she did eat. She also had severe
pains in her head. She suffered SO much
that she became but the shadow of her
self. One day happened to read tes-
timoniai about Hoods Sarsaparilla. 1t
Sounded So Truthful
I persuaded her to try this medicine.
Before finishing the first bottle there was
an improvement in her condition. She no
longer threw up her food and her head
ache was not as severe. She took in all
four bottles of Hoods Sarsaparilla and
several boxes OF Hoods Pills and repained
her weight. She is now enjoying the best
OF health. Her digestion is good and she
can cat almost anything she wishes. She
is az years old and says she feels as we'll

1t is just possible that one of the earli-
est acts Of tho legislature now in session
will be to repeal the bird.law passed two
years ago. Should this he done it will
give sportsmen a mouth or m ore in which
to indulge in partridge shooting, and
would, we believe, meet with universal
approval. The intent of the passage of
the bill has been already secured in that
throughout the State birds have become
very plentiful, whilst in some sections
there have never been known so many

son mas made the killing ont of the birds
quite an impossihiity, unless We should
have an unusually Severe winter. The
law during the present season which
should have opened on November 1st in
many counties, has been fairly well OBJ
served, but undoubtedly many birds have
been killed 10y pothunters and those who
care nothing for the preservation Of our
game through enactments by law. The
fact that in two counties, at least, of the
State, Henry and Bedford shooting could
DC hWluliy done, mas worked Il hardship
on those counties, since it has Hooded
Them with sportsmea from other parts of
the State, who were barred from shooting
in their own counties. Quail at this sea-
son of the year are we'll feathered, strong
of wing and, the cover being scans, are
found principally in. the woods and brush,
so that none but expert shots are likely
to do the covies much damage Thus
from TIE sportsman standpoint, no detri-
m"nt to next years shooting would he
likely I" accrue from the repeating of the
law, aud would give those who have had
no shooting during the past two years
some good spsrt before the open season
expires.

of the South and OF Southern banks is
iptrinsicaily equal to tn At of any section

why an unjust discrimination should be

The lumber camp of Zealand, in the
White Mountains, was burned last
week. The flames spread from mill
to mill and house to house until the
whole village was ablaze. In short
time the vast piles of lumber were
feeding the flames, and it is estimated
that 100000 feet of logs, together
with 100000 feet of sawed lumber
were destroyed. 1t is estimated that
1925, 200 will scarcely cover the loss.
