BATTLE or BIRDS AT SUMAS.
Three thousand Dollars Changes
Hands ON the Result-Remarkable
Fight by Cock struck Blind,
Yet Winning a Decisfve Victory
Fifteen Battles Fought. Out of
Which Belond's birds Win Eleven.

The greatest cooking main on record

BeIond a pig and another "a shirt.
The main proper was to consist of
eleven battles Only nine were fought,
as Beiond's birds Won six out OF the nine.
thus making a majority no matter how
the others would have ended.
After the nam was over six shake"
fights took place. Beiond won five out
OF the six.
The main was the outcome OF 4 persist
ent effort on the part of some of the
sports TO show Belond that he is not
the owner of the greatest lighting cocks
In Seattle. X was Belond against COM
bination consisting OF Frank Burns,
Frank poilarby Ed. Clark. Smith, Me-
Gee. Phinney. Perry and one other. whose
name could not be learned. They secured
the country to get the best birds possible.
That they were confident OF winning is
shown by the fact that they readily
agreed TO have the main for $50. with s25
a side on each battle.
Those who were In on the fight left
Seattle Friday night and went TO the
battle ground near Sumas. The main
took place Saturday night and was wit
messed by many OF Seattle's best known
sports. Every battle OF the nine. liz the
main proper. was fought hard and fast.
Belond's birds won six out of nine fights.
and the judges awarded him the decision
and purse.
Then shake" fights for 80 a battle
were inaugurated. Belond won five OF
these. and one OF them proved 10 be the
most remarkable ever recorded in the
history of the pit.
Beond had "a Wisconsin shufier which
he recently purchased from man named
Pierce. The bird weighed pounds G
ounces, and Belond considered II his best.
Smith had a 7-pound Dominick one of
"Oid Skagit's'' birds, which he considered
the best in the city. The two birds We're
matched for a $500 purse AT the first
c,atter of the spurs Smiths bird put out
both the eyes of Belond's bird. Belond )
bird. however. would not give up. and
every time he got chance at the other
IT. After twenty minutes of this kind
of fighting Belond's bird actually killed
the other bird
IN all fifteen battles were fought Belond
winning eleven. Only one OF his birds
was killed. The other crowd had ten
dead birds. Belond won $1,000 from
Smith on the main. Smith went broke
and bet a pig against $40 on the big
shake fight. In one of the shake fights
Clark bet his shirt agair.t Beionds shirt
Beiond il kicking because Clark would
not give up his shirt after his bird lost.
Taking II as a whole. about $1,000 changed
hands.

Taking tover.

these discussions of the ailments peculiar
to women took place twenty years earlier
IN life. If little of the prudery of mod
ern society were banished, so that young
women talked these subjects over among
themselves, there would be less suffering
among women in middle life
Good health is the best endowment that
a human being can have. Good general
health among women is largely dependent
upon good local health in worianly way
Through ignorance and neglect 1t has oe-
come such an ordinary, common pace
thing for women to suffer from weakness
and disease of the delicate and important
feminine organism, that many women have
come to look upon these troubles as an
unavoidable inheritance. This Is mis-
take All troubles of this nature may be
cured in the privacy of the home, without
UNDERGOING the obnoxious examinations
and 'local treatment insisted upon by
the average physician. DR.. Pierce's Pa
vorite Prescription gives health, elastic
strength and vitality to the sensitive organs
concerned. It allays Inflammation, heals
liberation and frees from pain. 1t torres
the nerves and builds up the nerve centers.
It makes woman healthy and strong, and
thus prepares her for healthy wifehood,
capable motherhood and safe transition
at the change OF life.
e want to testify to the great benefit derived
from using DR. PieTce's Favorite Prescription, %
writes Mrs. H Mason, Of Strykersviilc, Wyo-
ming Co.. n Y. II commenced using 1t about
three months before confinement. with my
former confinement suffered greatly while this
one was com parativeiy easy, owing to the use
of the Favorite Prescription"

HatteTIng praises or petty monarchS anu
the vain boastings of cruel conquerers.-
The Egyptian rears him mighty ebehsk,
and from its smooth surface we learn the
story of forgotten civilization. The Greek
acropolis, crowned with monuments of
Grecian valor keeps alive the memoryof
Grecian victories and Grecian heroes
And the Roman, borrowing from the
people he had conquered, commentaries
his successes with the marble and the
granite. But there stands in the New
York harbor to-day statue stretching
Quits arms to the worId-the wonder and
admiration of man. A monument more
lasting than the grandest of the Egyptian;
grander than the most beautiful of the
Greek, and more beautiful than the cost
liest of the Roman. More lasting, grand
er, and more beautiful, because chiseled
by the hand of affection and fashioned in
the mould of love, it represents princi-
pie, it touches a sympathetic, a respon-
sive chord in the human heart-the
Friendship of Nations-the gift of France
to America-the Statue of Liberty en-
tightening the world.
So the gifts of Rouss to Winchester
lifting their brows heavenwar d, to pro-
claim alike to the stranger and to the
sons and daughters of our city that they
are gifts founded on affection and
builded on love, that they represent the
friendship of man for his people. For
years they have stood beautiful and elo-
quent; for years they will stand grand
and imposing; an emblem of his gener-
osity; token of his benevolence; a
monument to his memory upon which
the generation that is and that which is
to come will ever gaze with feelings of
increasing admiration and gratitude-ad-
miration for the grandeur and the splen-
dor, and gratitude for the giver
And when his souls curfew shall have
tolled. when the silver cord that binds him
to life shall have been loosed, and the
golden bowl broken at the fountain,
when new grave shall have been made
in the beautiful city of Gods acre that
borders old Winchester, and love and
friendship have placed their laurels and
their tears on the silent tomb, his exam
pie and his influence will live on. You
cannot bury influence. You cannot bury
example Their channels once started
flow forever. They are eternal. And
even as the smallest ripple made on the
bosom of the sea continues its undulations
until they reach distant shores, or the
slightest motion of the air sends its vi
brations to the limits of the atmos-
phere, so the influences started by
Charles Broadway Rouss will live on
influences that have inspired many a
poor boy to look higher and live nobler;
influences that have helped many de-
spairing soul to hope on, hope ever; influ-
ences that have taught many human
wreck the beautiful lesson that men may
rise on stepping stones of their dead
selves to higher things" Aye, when the
last block of granite that marks his gen
erosity shall have disappeared, when the
last brick shall have crumbled into dust
and decay, his influences and his glory
will still survive fresh in eternal youth
exempt from mutability and decay i'm
mortal as the genial flame of friendship
and the God-given power of love.

On last Tuesday we had occasion to drive
over several public roads of the county, and
more than ever are we stimulated to the ad-
vocacy of better roads. During such winters
as the present, the necessity of grading and
metal is more than ever emphasized as the
only practical method of making our roads
permanently better. In demonstration of
this we can point with pleasure to the roads
which we Travelled within the Jurisdiction OF
ez-Supervisor E. Q. Tabb, whose intelligent
road construction commends his Judgment
as well as his fidelity. The Leetown and
Charles Town public road. and its commune
eating highways over which we drove, viii
long stand as monument to him in the
faithful and intelligent performance ofduty.
In the betterment of the roads under his
charge Mr. Tabb has been a public bene-
factor.-Adyocate.
