Greatest of Chess Players.

Lasker, who finally beat Steinitz
over the chessboard in Moscow, has
established himself as the worlds
champion more distinctively than any
player since Murphy. He has played
enough to give satisfactory evidence
of what he actually is, and he has
proved himself to be easily the best
living player. We have no doubt that
he would have beaten Steinitz in the
latter's best days as surely as he has
beaten him now. Lasker, master OF
all schools, unprejudiced, adaptable
and seemingly never deluded, is SO
sound in his judgment, accurate in
his foresight and so unfailing IN his
care that Steinitz could never have
prevailed against him at any time.
Whether Lasker has touched the very
pinnacle of genius or not his genera
power has probably never been equal
ed in the history of the game.--Nea1

circumstances. About ten years ago
Mr.. Gibson spent some time at

Rochester, N. Y. A warm friendship
sprang up between them, and before

not to open it until after his (Sibleys)
death. Slbley died about a month
ago and Gibson opened the envelope
and found in it will bequeathing to

Gibson and demanded the document

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires con-
stitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting di-
rectly upon the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system, thereby de-
stroying the foundation of the disease,
and giving the patient strength by
building up the constitution and as
sisring nature in doing its work. The
proprietors have so much faith in its
curative powers, that they offer One
Hundren Dollars for any case that it
fails to cure. Send for list of testi-

Bills Against Football
Nebraska Legislators Asked to Provide
Penalties For Even 0nlookers.

A decidedly stringent antifootball
bill has been introduced in the lower
house of the Nebraska Legislature.
The bill provides that any person
engaging in football game shall be
fined upon conviction sum not less
than $25 nor more than $Ioo or be
imprisoned for a term not exceeding
three months, or both. Further, if
any one is concerned as basker, UNI
pire, assistant, reporter or onlooker he
is liable to fine ot$5 to $25. Another
clause in the bill enables the proper
authorities to place under bond to
keep the peace those persons caught
training for a football game.
A bill has been introduced in the
Indianna house making it unlawful
for any person or persons to engage
in playing football in the state Of
Indiana. Representative Patterson,
Franklin county doctor, who intro
duced the bill, said he had seen many
games, including the big annual events
in the east, and declared that more
men had been killed by football thar
by pugilism.

DID WASHINGTON SWEARf
General Scott, OF Revolutionary y1Sne
SAYS that He Did.

Says that He Did.
Charles Scott was a native Of Gum.
berland county, In Virginia. He raised
the first company Of volunteers In that
state, south of the James river. that
actually entered into the continental
service. So much was he appreciated,
that, in 1777, the shire town Of Pow
hatan county was named In honor OF
him. Congress appointed him briga'
dier in the continental army on the
first of April, 1777. He served with
distinction during the war, and at its
termination he went to Kentucky. He
settled in Woodford county, in that
state, in 1855. He was with st. Clair
Mt his defeat In 1901: and in 1904 he
commanded portion Of Wayne's
army at the battle Of the Fallen Tim
ber. He was governor of Kentucky
form 1908 to 1912.
General Scott had n most inveterate
habit Of swearing; whether In private
or public society, on the farm, or the
field of battle, every other word was
an oath. On the night preceding the
Dntule OF trlncetOn, Scout IeCeiNtu sh'
order from the commander-in-chief in
person to defend bridge to the last
extremity. "To the last man, your
excellency," replied Scott; and forget.
ting the presence Of his chief, accom-
panied the words with tremendous
oaths. The general, as may be well
supposed, had but little time, on that
eventful evening, to notice or chide
| this want of decorum In his brave
and well-tried soldier. After the war
| friend Of the gallant general, anx.
ious to reform his evil habits, asked
him whether It was possible that the
man so much beloved, the admired
Washington, ever swore? Scott re-
fiected for a moment, and then ex'
claimed, "Yes, once. II was at Mon
mouth, and on n day that would have
made any man swear. Yes, sir. he
swore on that day, till the leaves SHOOK
on the trees, charming, delightful
Never have l enjoyed such swearing
before, or since. Sir, on that ever-me

A wise wheelman denounces the In
Justice Of compelling wheelmen to car
ry lanterns and allowing carriages to
travel unlighted. He tells us that
while riding one evening with his lamp
burning he ran into a team and was
badly bruised. The wagon contained
two drunken men who were fast
asleep. Why he should carry lamp
and they ride in darkness he cannot
understand.
The most stupid anti-cyclist law.
and there have been many Of them.
SAYS the American Wheelman, Is re-
ported from Austria, where, in the
| District of Neustadt, the gendarmes
have been arresting all cyclists riding
| In daytime without lanterns. The cy-
clists Of Vienna, the most progressive
| wheelmen In the empire, where the sport
| is not yet free from many vexatious
restrictions, fomented the most active
| resistance to the law. A leading
journal Of the city called on the 10000
| riders of the capital to visit Neustadt
en- masse and, by compelling thous-
ands Of arrests, to show the stupidity
Of the law.
| A syndicate has been formed In Den
yer in the interest Of a most novel en-
terprise connected with cycling. In
brief, the plan is to build 1,OOO-mile
bicycle tourist circuit In the noun
tains, starting from Denver and ex
tending to Estes Park, seventy-fivt
miles distant, said to be one of the
most beautiful natural parks In the
world. From there 1t is proposed t.
circle the west and south to a place
called Manitou via the Ute Pass, iant
i returning to Denver by way Of Mani
tou Park and South Platte. The plaI
includes the building Of cabins abou
twelve miles apart, and hotels abou
seventy y-five miles apart, one of whicl
is to be n sanitarium. The scheme
seems a wild one, but is said to b.
backed by influential capitalists inter
ested in booming the general interest
of the state.
The military use Of bicycles is a sub
, ject receiving an astonishing amoun
of attention just now In Continenta
, war offices. Germany and Franc
are the most active rivals In the CON
petition, and some Of the experiment
which have been undertaken recent
. would seem absurd to all eA
cept bicycle enthusiasts Of the e>
. tremest type. Imagine, for instance
, equipping the infantry Of an arm

Events move so rapidly nowadays,
80 many things of interest come up
every "a hours, that the busy man mis-
ses good many of them, fails to hear
of them, or, in the hurry of his affairs,
overlooks the reports of large number
which his daily paper chronicles.
Every once in while he sits back and
wants to know as quickly as may be
what happened of Importance since he
last had chance to pause. 1t is be-
cause of these conditions that the
weekly newspaper, the good weekly
newspaper, keeps so strong hold upon
the people in general.
Conspicuous among those papers
which merit the adjective "good" is
the weekly edition of the Boston Jour
nal. The news of the world is there,
record of the important events that
have come to pass within the previous
seven days, carefully edited, skillfully
arranged, so that none of the readers
time need be wasted in looking for what
attracts him. He has before him each
week the summary of the worlds his
tory for that time, and no one need feel
that he is behind the times when he
reads the Weekly Boston Journal.

ton, it holds firmly its place in the
