Among the many thousands of treat
ments and remedies introduced to the
public during the past ten years, the
new method of curing diseases of the air
passages stands as the FIRST and
ONLY one ever Endorsed by the regular
medical profession. This alone should
be conclusive evidence of its value TO
educated and scientific men; but when
you add to this the startling fact that
hundreds OF the most prominent men
and women in religious, literary and So
cial circles throughout the country have
banded themselves together solely for
the purpose of encouraging the use or
this new remedy and treatment and that
this society now numbers over 22,O0O
persons, then the general public should
begin to understand the vast impor-
lance Of this new discovery which cures
Catarrh, Bronchitis, Asthma, Coughs.
Cclds and Consumption without the aid
or stomach medicines or the use OF
sprays, douches and atomiZers, curing
Them by natures own remedy, given
IN the only vehicle (the air) which nature
permits to enter the bronchial tubes anu

From Scrihners Magazine)
CORVALLIS had left all his stores at
Brunswick, and three regiments OF foot
and three companies of horse at Prince
| ton. Thither then Washington was
marching that winter night He meant
to strike his superior enemy another blow
| at weak point. BY daybreak he was
near Princeton, and moved with the main
army straight for the town. Mercer was
detached with three hundred men to de-
stroy the bridge which gave the most di-
| rect connection with Corvallis The en-
envy had started at sunrise. and ore reg
iment was already over he bridge when
they saw the Americans. Col Mawhood
at once recrossed the bridge and both
Americans and English made for some
high commanding ground. The Ameri-
cans reached the desired point first. and
a sharp fight ensued. The American ri
fies did great execution, but with put bay
onets they could not stand a charge.
Mercer was mortally wounded. and his
men began to retreat. As MANHOOD adj
yanced, he came upon the main American
army, marching rapidly to the scene of
action. The new Pennsylvania militia
in the van wavered under the British
fire and began TO give way. Washington
forgetting, as he was too apt to do his
position. his Importance. and everything
but the fight. rode rapidly to the front
reigned his horse within thirty yards of
the enemy, and called to his men to stand
firm. The wavering ceased, the Ameri-
cans advanced, the British halted, and
then gave way. The seventeenth regi-
ment was badly cut up, broken, and dis
persed. The other two fled into the town
made a brief stand, gave way again, and
were driven in rout to Brunswick.
Washington broke down the bridges and,
leaving CORVALLIS, who had discovered
that he had been outgeneralled, to Eaze
at him from the other side of the Mill
stone and of Stony Brook, moved off to
Somerset Courthouse. where he stopped
to rest his men. who had been marching
and fighting for eighteen hours. 1t was
too late to reach the magazines at Bruins
wick but the work was done.

night says unless Sharkey agrees prompt

Dispatches from San Francisco say
Jim Jeffries and Tom Sharkey have
been matched. and that the bout is to
take place the latter part of next
month. This is proof that Sharkey has
reconsidered his recently avowed de-
termination to fight no more in Cali
fornia because of his belief that he
could not get fair play there. In this
Sharkey has shown good sense. If he
don't take opportunities offered him on
the coast he is likely to be put out of
the boxing business. Notwithstanding
his pretended indignation at the treat
ment he has received. the coast is about
the only place on earth he could have
cut the capers he is credited with. 1t
is doubtful whether an Eastern club
would have permitted him to fight un-
der its auspices

Charley McKeever. the clever Phila-
delphia boxer who is to meet Matte
Matthews at Cleveland on April Il, has
been offered a match with George
Green-Young Corbett-at San Fran
cisco. and has promptly accepted il.
McKeeYer claims that Green is the only
man who ever earned a decision over
him and he is anxious for the oppor-
tunity to even things with him. Green
is popular on the coast but McKeeVer
is sure to have at least one stanch sup
porter there-Tom Sharkey. The latter
gives Green all the credit for his recent
failure to get a decision over Joe
Choynski. and he Will no doubt take ac-
tive interest in behalf Of the Eastern
man in the hope Of easing up his feel
ings

1t is claimed by New Orleans ex-
changes that the knocking out of the
McCOy-Bonner contest will put an end
to boxing exhibitions in Louisiana.
Gov Foster, it is said, has set himself
firmly, and viii see TO il that the pugiI-
istic fraternity moves out Of the limits
of his bailiwick. This battle, or rather
the differences Of its supporters and the
State authorities. resembles that be
tween Dan Stuart and his friends and
Gov. Culberson and his supporters over
the FitZSimmons-Corbe affair, and
result was the same. Instead OF treat
ing with any sort OF consideration the
opponents of boxing. the managers of
the Mccoy Bonner affair set them
selves up as bigger than the law. heap
ed contempt upon all who opposed the
battle. and said ii should come off as
scheduled whether the Governor liked
ii or not. The Governor very naturally
got his blood up, Mccoy had to jump
the State. and Bonner was thrown in
to jail.

While Kid Lavigne is making all
sorts of statements regarding another
meeting with Jack DAILY, there is an
impression that he is not really as anx-
ious for battle as he pretends to be.
1t is now said that LaVigne wants the
next bout TO be a finish. Such a fight
ii is generally conceded. could only
take place at Carson, and il would
prove a financial failure. 1t seems
strange therefore. that he should insist
on finish contest when he knows that
such an affair would be impossible. 1t
Is hard 10 believe. however. that La
Nigne would not accept almost any sort
Of battle from DAILY. As matters now
are he does not stand i'm the estima-
ton Of the boxing world as he did
before the Cleveland meeting. and ii is
but reasonable to suppose that he
wants to put himself back to his former
footing.

MAHFR WILL MEET JEFFRIES


Now that the Doyle matter is settled,
the local fans have begun placing the
teams at the close of the League sea-
son. All sorts of wild predictions are be-
ing made; some say the Senators are
pennant winners; others that the club
will finish two. three, four; and then
there are those who seem satisfied with
fifth or sixth position.
Among the local baseball enthusiasts,
there is no one better qualified by eNpe-
rience or knowledge of the game and
players TO place them than Michael b.
Scanlon, the former owner Of the Wash
ington club. In Mr.. Scanlons opinion,
the clubs win finish in the following or
der: New York viii float the pennant,
closely followed by Boston. Baltimore
and Cincinnati, which will follow in the
order named. Cleveland win prove the
NTH place holder, with Washington a
close sixth.
In the second division Brooklyn and
Philadelphia viii contest the ground for
seventh place. with the chances in favor
of Brooklyn. Chicago. Pittsburg Louis
vile and St Louis will bring up the rear
of the National League in the order
named.

No navy is free from sad stories of
explosions in its powder and ammunl=

ming of our Civil War the number Of
vessels destroyed by .torpedoes in some
form; or by submarine mines, makes
d grewsome list: Is it generally
known; for example; thai in the Civil
War seven monitors and eleven wood
en- vessels of war were totally de-
stroyed by submarine mines? Had
the Southerners possessed the same
knowledge at the beginning of the
war, says the New York Herald; the
struggle would have been; 1T least
much prolonged, and the disaster to
life and tonnage been greatly increased:
During our early struggles several
vessels were blown up, notably the
Randolph, of immortal memory, but
the most memorable case, and surely,
one of the most pathetic, was the de-
struction of the Intrepid, commanded
by the gallant Somers. She was fit.

was heard, column of flame was seen
vibrating in the skies, and then the
roar of hundreds of guns mounted

story, but it is believed that Somers
