Famous Springs al Deer Park.

A million and Il half gallons of the purest
water on earth, is the daily output OF the
famous Boiling Springs in Garrett County,
Maryland. In order that nothing can con-
taminate the Springs, one hundred acres of
land surrounding in, are fenced in. In addi-
ton. II wire building covers the Springs, so
that leaves cannot fall into the water. 1t is
from these extraordinary Springs that Deer
Park Hotel receives its water supply, the
water being piped direct to the hotel. The
Medical fraternity now concede that in the
matter OF health, the question Of pure water
stands at the head and front. No summer
resort combines so many healthlul features.
The air is wonderfully pure and invigorating
cool nights, with absolutely no mosquitoes;
the finest cuisine, with perfect sanitary ar
rangements. makes Deer Park Hotel the ideal
resort. Aug7-4wks.

It's the best thing for the
hair under all circumstances.
Just as no man by taking
thought can add an inch to
his stature, so no preparation
can make hair. The utmost
that can be done is to pro-
mote conditions favorable to
growth. This is done by
Ayers Hair Vigor. 1t re-
moves dandruff, cleanses the
scalp, nourishes the soil i'll
which the hair grows, and,
Just as a desert will blossom
under rain, so bald heads grow
hair, when the roots are nour-
ished. But the roots must be
there. If you wish your hair
to retain its normal color, or
if you wish to restore the lost
tint of gray or faded hair use

important Testimony for the
Big Sausage Maker.
Expert Says One Of Bones Found Was
Arti6cially Put Together.
Also that The Alleged Human Fsmsr Is NAT
Of = Hog.

Chicago, Sept. 30.-Dr. Airport made
a statement on the stand at the Luet-
CERT trial, today. that caused pro-
found sensation for a few minutes. He
was examining the temporal bone which
had been identified by Prof Dorsey and
pronounced by the latter not only q
temporal bone, but the temporal bone
OF woman.
That bone is not temporal bone,
either of a human or Of the lower or
der Of animals" declared DR.. Airport,
gazing at the exhibit intently. 1T is
composition of bones put together by
artificial means. The trace here which
Prof. Dorsey said was the outline OF q
facial nerve. is fibre of animal matter
with which the bones are stuck to-
gether.',
The statement was received with
something akin to dismay by the prose-
cutiOn for a moment. Luetgert leaned
back in his chair and laughed.
Assistant States Attorney McEwan
began hot cross-examination of the
witness. but the testimony of DR.. ALL
port, yesterday afternoon, was greatly
to: the big sausage makers liking. Dr.
Airport declared the femur, which Prof
George Dorsey of the Field Column
bian Museum. identified as that of a
human, was the femur Of hog. DR..
Airport is professor of descriptive and
comparative anatomy in the North

WASHINGTON. 9; BALTIMORE, 3.
washington Deserves Thanks from Boston Tor
Grand Work Against the Orioles.

Baltimore. Md, Sept. 30.-The ghost of
chance that Baltimore had to win the
pennant for next season no longer exists
1t vanished early In today's game. when
the Senators fell upon DR.. Ponds curves,
batted him out of the box and took
good long lead in the fourth. after which
the Orioles seemed to lose heart and
played listlessly and without ambition.
In the meantime the score board was
showing how easily the BOstonians were
taking their game away from BARNES
men in Brooklyn, and the last.vestige of
hope slowly died out in the breasts of the
handful OF faithful "rooters' who still
chung to the belief that Brooklyn might
take one from the leaders and give the
Birds chance to caech up by winning
all four from the Senators.
The outcome of both games was
watched. however with great interest.
and wherever crowds gathered bulletins
were read to them. In almost every in
stance. che news that Boston had clinched
it and that the championship was no
longer in doubt, was received with salts
faction, and In home cases with cheers.
The story Of t0day's game Is like the
story of a stern chase at sea. Washing

first inning. Tucker banged one into left.

And the Flao Will Wavs Over The Boston
Grounds During 1898.
National league Standing.

Brooklyn, Sept. 30.-Although Boston
has one more game to play with Brook
lyn and Baltimore will play two more
with Washington at the Monumental
City, the race for the league pennant of
1897 practically came to an end with the
conclusion Of today's game at Eastern
park. Boston won the game. while
Washington trounced the Champions,
which leaves the Bostons. the undis-
puted champions for 1898. Even should
Baltimore win both their games they
can only attain percentage of 100
points. Should Brooklyn win from
Boston. Saturday. the latter still would
have percentage Of 704.
The scenes at today's game beggar
description. In the second inning
when the Bostons scored five runs,
which gave them a safe lead. men and
women alike arose in their seats and
yelled like demons. When the lead be-
came so great that there was no more
hope for the home team, the most
faithful Joined the BOstons and their
roOters, and for a time nobody could
hear anything else but people yelling
Boston" 1t was great day for base
ball in Brooklyn, and one that is not
likely to be forgotten very quickly by
those who attended.
Young Dunn was put in the box to
fool the new champions, but Capt.
Griffin might as well have stood up q
wooden man. The Beaneaters had on
their batting clothes and the faster
Dunn tossed them across the plate the
harder Capt. Duffy's men could line out
the leather. The only trouble was that
the batting was all on one side. Thu.
home team could do but little with
Klobedanz, the Boston twirler. About
the only time he was hit with effect
was in the third inning, when they
scored all their runs.
The fielding, too, like the batting,
was one-sided. Brooklyn made only
four actual errors. but then some of the
players are guilty of some of the most
stupid plays seen in many day. Bos-
toms work in the field was simply mar
velOus. Nothing seemed too hard fo-
them to get. Lowe and Long alone cut
off about four hits by their brilliant
fielding. Although the championship
is settled, Saturdays game will prove
important in many ways. as the local
fans are already preparing to give the
men from the Hub a great reception.
