FOOT BALL SATURDAY.
Cottage Athletic Club and Indians
Line UP Against Each other.

The Cottage Athletic club and the
Indian foot ball team played at Alumni
Park Saturday Afternoon before small
number of spectators. The former
eleven secured the ball on fluke in
the first half and succeeded in scoring
a touchdown. which Johnson failed to
convert into a goal The second half
was an Interesting exhibition of foot
ball. The playing during this half was
all in the Cottage clubs territory. The
Indians had the ball within few feet
of their opponents goal, when the
crowd surged in on the Eridiron, and
although the referee gave the ball to
the Indians the Cottage eleven's centre
refused to give il up. During the bick-
ering the timekeeper shouted time and
the game was over. Estabrook. a High
school man, acted in the capacity of
referee and plainly showed that he
knew little or nothing of the rules gov
erning this seasons play. c. +. White
lock acted as umpire.
Before. the big game the second High
school eleven and the Indian, jr.,
played an interesting game, which re-
suited in favor of the latter by the
score of five to nothing. There are
some youngsters on either of the teams
which can play all around some of the
members on the older teams. They
consumed too much time in parleying
on the referees decisions The High
school team did not go to Honesdale
on account of the threatening weather.

GET FLESH.
Get Strength, vigor, Clear Complex
ion and Good Digestion, Not by
Patent Medicine, But in Natures
Own Wav

S"h
Any honest physician will tell you
that there is but one way to get in
creased flesh; all the patent medicines
and cod liver oils to the contrary not
withstanding.
Nature has but one way to increase
flesh, strength and vigor. mind and
body and that is through the stomach,
by wholesome food, well digested.
There is no reason or common sense in
other methods whatever.
People are thin. run down, nervous,
pale, and shaky in their nerves simply
because their stomachs are weak.
They may not think they have dys-
pepsia. but the fact remains that they
do not eat enough food, or what they
eat is not quickly and properly digest
ed, as it should be.
Dr. Harlandson says the reason is
because the stomach lacks certain di-
gestive acids and peptones, and defic-
lent secretion of gastric juice.
Natures remedy in such cases is to
supply what the weak stomach lacks.
There are several good preparations
which will do this, but none so readily
as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. which
are designed especially for all stomach
troubles, and which cure all digestive
weakness on the common sense plan
of furnishing the digestive principles
which the stomach lacks.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets give per-
feet digestion. First effect is to in
crease the appetite and increased vigor,
added flesh, pure blood and strength Of
nerve and muscle is the perfectly nat
ural result.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the
safest tonic known and will cure any
form of stomach trouble except cancer
Of the stomach. May be found at drug
gists at so cents for full sized packages
or direct by mail from stuart Co., Mar
shall, Mich.

GAMEWELL SYSTEM ADOPTED.

The joint fire committee met last
week and recommended the Gamewell
fire alarm system for the adoption by
the city council. At the meeting on
Friday night councils acted unani-
mously in regard to the matter and
before long the aforementioned alarm
system will be set up. Just at present
the municipal funds are rather low,
which will cause a delay in the pur-
chasing of the system, which requires
an outlay of S4,370.

WATCHING THE SMOKE.

You see, we discovered that by
watching a certain space away across
the hills; we could see columns of
smoke rise up into the air at certain
periods. 1t was not hard to connect
this smoke with the tunnels of the
vessels of the squadron, and thus |
was kept informed as to their where
abouts. Every time one of the vessels
moved the tell tale smoke followed
her course, and so did J. So all night
before the dash was made a thousand
pairs of sleepless eyes on board our
vessels watched the mouth of the har-
Dor as a cat watches a mouse. Not for
one second did we lose track of the
Spanish squadron, and we were fully
prepared for the dash

tiles and shells was the hottest imagin-
able. l wondered where they all came
from. just as the vessels SWING around
the Brooklyn opened up with three
shells, and almost simultaneously the
rest Of the fleet fired. Our volley was
terrible shock to the Spaniards, and
so surprised them that they must have

Goetzen, formerly military attache at
the German embassy In Washington,
who was commissioned bv Emperor
