AUGUST FLOWER.

1T is surprising factn says Prof.
Houton, ''that in my travels in all parts
of the world, for the last ten years, |
have met more people having used
Green's August Flower than any
other remedy, for dyspepsia, deranged
liver and stomach. and for constipation.
l find for tourists and statesmen, or for
persons filling Office positions, where
headaches and general bad feelings from
irregular habits exist, that Green :

Gardner Thursday evening 1t the Met
ropolitan Athletic Club, but he was 50
badly used up in his contest with Fair
man, that it was out of the question for
him to box Thursday.
Fairman, who did not receive a
scratch in the argument with KinlOw,
expressed himself as willing to take
the latter's place against Gardner, and
was Immediately substituted by the
club. While a great many would like
to have seen the original match take
place, the change should be equally as
good from spectators point OF view.
and while Fairman is comparative
stranger to Wheeling sports, he is not
a novice by any means, and is the win
ner of a number of hard-fought bat
ties in and around Pittsburg, where his
ability as a boxer is well known.
Fairman is built on the same lines as
Gardner, and finds little difficulty in
making the feather-weight limit, 1872
pounds. The boys will weigh 125
pounds at three o'clock D. m. on day of
contest. This is one pound lighter
than the precious match, and more in
Eddie's favor.
The club has gone to considerable
expense in engaging frst-class per-
formers in the preliminary bouts and
there is not the slightest doubt of their
ability to keep each other hustling for
the decision.

Flotows romantic opera Martha
was presented to a large and cultured
audience at the Opera House last
night by the Andrews Opera Company.
The audience was inclined to be rather
cold and critical during the prologue,
but the meritorious rendition OF solo
numbers caused this feeling to disap-
pear and in the last three acts there
were continuous evidences of genuine
appreciation. The production was
satisfactory in every respect. 1t was
we'll staged aud handsomely c0stumed.
The chorus was strong and well train
ed. Miss French and Miss Nightseer
not only sang admirably, but their &C
ton was quite beyond criticism. Mr..
Walters made an excellent Lionel, =
and his rendition of Lost Prescribed"
with Mr.. Howard was one Of the vocal
gems of the evening. Both of these
gentlemen were a trifte stiff in their
acting. however. Other members OF
the cast were uniformly good, and the
audience was delighted with the per-
Torrance. Tonight the company will
present the very pleasing comic opera
"Girofe Girofa," and the advance sale
indicates another large audience.
