F ffCh01E N1dSo.s y, Aooor
Wells, Richardson & Co.-Gentlemen:
Myself and family form a first class ex-
ample OF the health-giving qualities OF
Paine's celery compound. Every spring
we use this valuable remedy, and It has
kept my children well and strong. 1 be-
lieve that it is better to take steps to
keep well rather thar to wait till one IS
sick. The good health of my family n
freedom from Doctors bills shows the wis
dom of taking Paine's celery compound.
Every time l have a chance 1 speak IN
praise of Paine's celery compound, know
ing it TO be superior to sarsaparillas or
any ordinary spring medicine. Yours very
truly,
HARRY PRENDIVILLE,
Publisher Of the American Bandsman.
Here's a whole family.
Husband, wife and children made well
and kept well by Paine's celery compound.

We learn from the Buena Vista

Lake, Iowa, that Sheriff O'Banion
has captured Walter Giddle, one of
the men whom he recently traced to
Mankato and who then eluded him.
The capture was made last Friday,
four miles north of Correctionville,
Iowa, where Giddle had stopped to
Craze his team. He confessed to the
theft of the money from the Illinois
Central depot. He waived examina-
tion and was bound over to the grand
jury in the sum of 81, 900, in default
of which he went to Jail.
The county board today considered
little besides school and road petit
tions., denying the most of them.

HE game Of Sunday last with the She
boygans WIS IN the nature of paradox,
the real winners SO far as playing was
concerned, being the recorded losers, and
this through no fault of the umpire. The
game opened with Manitowoc at the bat.
When it came to Harris turn to show
dis proves at the bat he sent the ball
flying over the right field and was INTRO
duced to the Manitowoc people through
the medium of home run. He was &C
corded an ovation as he crossed the home
plate
Gerlach, the new pitcher for Manito-
voc, was nervous when he went into the
box and sent two men to bases on balls.
Some hasty people were disposed to in
crease his nervousness by i'll advised
shouts of put him out" This was stop
ped by the remonstrance of the cool head
ed and considerate and Gerlach soon
showed that he could pitch ball most
effectively, though wild at times. She
boygan made three runs the first inning
and did not add to this until the fifth
when two more we're Knocked out. Three
blanks followed and the game ended with
| this rs the sum total of Sheboygans runs.
Manitowoc scored one each in the first,
third, fifth and ninth. Several times the
| boys seemed to have dead sure thing"
when the unexpected would intervene.
| Poor base running lost the game, which
conld have been won but for this, even
| with the unpropitious opening, Sheboy
| gan punched its hits. The average of
playing WAS decidedly with MRnitowoc.
The old members of th. team played
| with their accustomed vigor. The three
| new men, Hart, Gerlack and LaDglois
are valuable acquisitions. Gerlach is
| raw material" yet but he has good stuff
| IN him and with practice and discipline
| will develop into first class pitcher
| Hart is star of the first magnitude and
| little Langlois was favoriIe from tie
| start.
Simultaneous with the opening OF the
game came the roasting of the umpire
| practice extremely annoying to specta-
| tors, players and everyone with the ex-
ception of those who indulge in it know
ing there can be no retort. One fellow
10 particular made the grand stand 6
most undesirable place by his noisy
demonstrations and disgusting attempts
at wit IN voice cultural from over-In
diligence ID spirlts. Enthusiasm is proper
and applause when the circumstanc
iustIfices it, is to be expected. But thos
who pstronize base ball do 1t to see tn,
