After the eXertiOn Of my record rides
while with the Morgan & Wright team
in the south last winter. during which
l lost somewhat in weight on account
of the unaccustomed climate, was adj
vsed to use Paine's celery compound.
| am pleased to say that it gave such
satisfaction that I was impelled to use
it again to brace up from the effects Of
the two unusually rough ocean trips
that I have taken during the past
month. | believe that wheelmen who

Toledo has always felt a trlHe too bulky
for the Interstate League. Whether or
not the article of base ball furnished by
the Interstate is first class. the fans" in
that city have not felt satisfied with mem
bership in the organization. after having
been given a taste of base ball of the
quality furnished by the Western Asso-
citation. Toledo can hardly be blamed for
its case of ''swelled head" nor can any
reasonable person find fault with the ex-
ub5rance of joy which is manifested in
that city over the report that Toledo is TO
secure berth in a more pretentious league.
For the welfare of the Interstate, however,
it is to be hoped that Toledo will not with
draw. and that il the deal which has been
mentioned in these columns is consumma-
ted, Omaha will secure the franchise in
the Western League. 1t is not that Toledo
is indispensable to the success of the In
terstate. but that the organization is now
complete and any disbursement Of
plans at this time would result in consid-
cradle embarrassment to the league.
II would necessitate a search for another
city, which might be prolonged until after
the opening OF The season. and might re-
suit in idle time for many of the clubs.
Such condition of affairs at the begin
ming Of the season would result disastrous
ly, and it is doubtful il the league would
entirely recover from the blow during the
summer. II is unfortunate that in base
ball all interests are subservient to those
of the National League. The national
agreement is a good thing for minor leagues
until it comes 10 a clash with the major
organization. when the rule OF might
makes right" obtains, and the might" is
always on the side OF the major organiza-
ton.

70 CURE nervous DYSPEPSIA.
To Gain Flesh, to Sleep Well. to
Know What Appetite and Good
Digestion Mean, Make a Test
of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets.
Interesting Experience of an In
dianapOlis Gentleman.

No trouble is more common or more
People having it think their nerves are
too blame, and are surprised that they
are not cured by nerve medicine and
spring remedies; the real seat of the mis-
chief is lost sight of: the stomach is the
organ to be looked after.
Nervous dyspeptics often do not have
any pain whatever in the stomach, nor.
perhaps, any of the usual symptoms of
stomach weakness. Nervous dyspepsia
shows itself, not in the stomach so much
as in nearly every other organ; in some
cases the heart palpitates and is irregu-
lar; in others the kidneys are affected: in
others the bowels are constpated, with
headaches; still others are troubled with
loss of flesh and appetite, with accumu-
laton of gas sour risingS and heartburn.
Mr.. A. w. Sharper of No. 81, Prospect
St., indianapolis, Ind, writes as follows;
a motive of pure gratitude prompts me
to write these few lines regarding the
Dyspepsia Tablets. l have been suf-
ferer from nervous dyspepsia for the last
four years. have used various patent
medicines and other remedies without
any favorable result. They sometimes
gave temporary relief until the effects of
the medicine wore off. | attributed this
to my sedentary habits, being book
keeper with little physical exercise, but
am glad to state that the tablets have
overcome all these obstacles, for l have
gained in flesh, sleep better, and am bet
ter in every way. The above is written
not for notoriety. but is based on actual
fact. Respectfully yours.
"A. w. SHARPER.

1t is safe to say that Stuart's Dyspep-

The Chicago Times-Hcrald says that
Altgeld's explanation in regard to his
connection with the failure of the Globe
Savings bank of Chicago does not ex-
plain. The Herald regards it as beg
ging the question when Governor Alt
geld appeals for leniency of treatment
because of the fact that the heaviest
losers by the failure of the bank were his
personal, intimate friends. That paper
says he merely contradicts the state
ments of the bank examiners in regard
to his responsibility, and closes by say
ing: "Mr. Altgcld's connection with
the dcfunct bank may not disclose an in
dictable offense, but it reveals official
negligence and misconduct of most
reckless and indefensible character"
We are not acquainted with the penal
| code of Illinois, but it should include in
| it us indictdble offenscs such criminal
negligence as the Times Herald does not
hesitate to declare Altgeld has been
guilty of. His plea for leniency because
some personal friends were losers does
not excuse him for using his political pop.

conversation he said that he was here to
hnd out what the governor expected him
TO do.
The reporter asked him why he did
not make an effort to protect the negroes
from the mob. He said:

writes bill against it. We were going
