JUST AT THIS SEASON.
Spring the Most Dangerous of the
Year

This is the most dangerous season of
the year. 1t may be pleasant, may often
seem attractive, but back of all the pleas
ant atmosphere there is danger! This
danger comes In some form of sickness.
Almost any sickness starts with a cold
or chill caused by the sluggish action of
the system. That is why so many peo-
pie just now complain of tired feelings,
pains in the muscles and bones, loss of
appetite, spring fever and similar trou-
bles.
The following is good advice from
prominent medical journal: Pneumonia
and other dangerous complaints, which
result from a neglected cold, can always
be avoided If a timely remedy is taken.
When chilly sensations are felt they
should be stopped Immediately or serious
consequences will follow. There is only
one way known to the world of avoiding
cold or chills, and that is the use of
good, pure, strong stimulant. Nothing
ordinary will do. 1t must be something
sure in its action and scientifically pre-
pared. For this reason nothing has ever
equaled Duffys Pure Malt Whiskey,
which is acknowledged to-day by physi-
clans and scientific men to be the only
pure medicinal whiskey on the market
Duffy's Pure Malt is always reliable
an effective. People should not, however,
permit any dealer to substitute something
which is claimed to be Just as good"
or ''about the same thing"

A weak stomach is the cause of about
nine-tenths of all disease, yet in most

INTERNATIONAL CHESS MATCH.
The Arrangements For the Games
Practically Completed.


Practically Completed.
q Washington, May 23.-The arrangements
for the international chess match be-
- ween selected teams from the British
1Iouse of Commons and the House of
Representatives are practically completed.
fThe games will, at the request of the
English contestants, take place May 81
&and June l.
1t is proposed also upon the completion
of the tournament to have a consulta-
hon game, in which all the members OF
#the two legislative bodies will participate.
But this has not yet been definitely de-
termined.
n The members of the House have been
coached by w. Pillsbury of Brooklyn, the
winner of the International chess tourna-
ment at Hastings, England, who has
&played against all corners for the past
week at the Metropolitan Club in this
city, and who has won every game, ex-
+ cept a draw with the Austrian minister.
There will be five players on each side.
although the players on behalf of the
House of Representatives have not vet
8been officially selected, it is understood
that four of them have been selected,
namely: Messrs. Pearson of North Caro-
Dina, De Graffenreid of Texas, Bodine OF
Missouri and Handy of Delaware.
Messrs. Plunkett, Heaton and Straus
will be three of the five of the English
men.
The players will move their men i'm the
room of the House committee on foreign
affairs and the English players in one of
the Hobbies of the parliament house. The
wire connections will be direct, so as to
minimize the time to be consumed in the
transmission of the moves. The messages
will be sent over the wires by the Western
Union Telegraph Company and the Anglo
American Cable Company, both Of which
companies have donated the use of their
lines for the occasion.
Supt. Marean of the Western Union in
this city has had two wires run into the
Room of the committee on foreign affairs,
which will connect directly with the Amer
can terminus of the Anglo-American ca
+ bic at Capt Breton. One of these wires will
h be used to send and the other for receiving
purposes. Similar arrangements have been
h made with wires leading directly from the
.0ther terminus of the cable on the Irish
|coast to the lobby of the commons. The
play will last five hours each day, from
o'clock to midnight, London time, and
from to o'clock our time. Fifteen
X moves an hour will be allowed Supt. Ma
.fean estimates that a minute will be re-
. luired for the transmission of messages,
20 that IL will reduce the actual playing
K pine to an average move every three min
<es.
II Great interest in the contest is being
.nanifested here. Sir Julian Pauncefote,
.at the request of the British players, will
ct as referee here, and il is probable that

Nador at London, will perform a like duty
