he was in Vienna. He complains of the
manner in which he put in the asylum,
attributing ii to the United States consul

given by SteinitZS secretary. He was con-
fined in the asylum for over a month and
states that he was not allowed to COM

not allowed to see him. He admits that he
was laborlng under great excitement at the
close of his match with Lasker which he

less degree, with all his matches. Accord

The man with a weight on his
leg can't hope to win in the race.
A man with a weight on his
health can't expect to compete in
life and business with those who
are not handicapped. If his brain
is heavy, and his blood sluggish,
because of constipation, he will
not succeed in doing anything
very well. Constipation is the
cause of nine-tenths of all sick
ness. Symptoms of it are sallow-
ness, listlessness, poor appetite,
bad taste in the mouth, dizziness,
biliousness, and lassitude. Con-
stipation can be cured easily and
certainly by the use of DR.. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets. They are not
at all violent in their action, and
yet they are more certain than
many medicines which are so
strong that they put the system
all out of order. The great ad.
vantage OF the pleasant Pellets
is that they cure permanently.

Something to Depend On.

Mr.. James Jones, of the drug
firm of Jones C Son, Cowden, ILL.,,
in speaking of DR.. Kings New
Discovery, says that last winter
his wife was attacked with Ia
grippe, and her case grew so Sc
rious that physicians at Cowden
and Pana could do nothing for
her. 1t seemed to develop into
hasty consumption. Having DR..
Kings New Discovery in store,
and selling lots of it, he took a
bottle home, and TO the surprise of
all she began to get better from
first dose, and half dozen dollar
bottles cured her sound and well
DR.. Kings New Discovery for
consumption, coughs and colds is
guaranteed to do this good work.

Williamson Saves a Life.

As the II. G.. & 2. excursion
train was pulling out from the
crowded platform a negro man
and woman tried to board the
now rapidly moving train. The
man slipped and fell with half of
his body across the rail and the
wheels were within a foot of his
body when j. Z. Williamson,
sanitary inspector and day police
man, grabbed and dragged him
out with a tremendous effort, as
the man was very large. The
woman in trying to catch the
steps of a coach also bumped
against him while he was stoop-
ing over and braced to pull out
the man. She was knocked back
by the jar else she too would have
fallen beneath the wheels. Both
parties finally succeeded in get
ting on the rear coach, hardly
realizing that but for the quick
action and presence of mind of
officer Williamson one, if not
both, would have gone on that
excursion from whence there is
no return.

Smith, Fred futile, Walter Paine.
Jet Smallwood, John Glasgow, Otis
Bigelow, Bert Thurber, Fred Bitner
and Willard Crever. Saturday night
the boys returned thinking they had
never spent so happy a day in their
lives. The members Of the Window
High School did their utmost to
make it pleasant for them, ruling
fairly in all decisions and using them
in the best way possible. A recep-
ton was held in the early evening at
the school house after which the
young folks departed to Clark's hall
where refreshments were served in
abundance consisting of ice cream,
cake etc. It is said that some of the
boys so fell in love with the town
that they really hated to leave when
the time came to depart. Although
Worthington did not gain a greal
reputation she has nothing to be-
ashamed of, for this is the first event
of the kind experienced and those
who took part, feel already that they
are better prepared for the next meet.
The winning school was Madelia
which received 81 points, won by two
members, Welden, one of the best
amateur cycle riders in the state. and
Smith natural born athelete with
several years training. Worthington
gained second honors having II
points, securing most of them on a
close second. Those who took part
were: Russell Moberly, Leone Nc
Keever, riding the wheel, and Rob
Smith, Bert Fuoua in running and
jumping. One or two of the other
boys intended to compete but for
some reason did not. Lee Shell,
Geo. Damon and others intended to
ride up Saturday morning but were
unable to on account of the unfav-
orable condition of the weather.
1t has become quite customary for
classes on graduating to leave their
pictures with the school. Let the
present senior class begin it by ar
ranging in neatly designed frame
their photos and on them their auto
graphs. The 81 and the class motto
might also form part of the design.
If this is done each of the future
classes can easily be persuaded to
keep up the custom. The desirable
lty OF such a picture gallery is too
evident to need demonstration.
The Base Ball enthusiasm has
somewhat died down as the boys
have spent most of their time in pre-
pairing for Field Day.
