During the winter of 1897 Mr.. James
Reed, one of the leading citizens and
merchants of Clay, Clay county, w. Va,
struck his leg against a cake of ice in
such a manne as to bruise 1t severely.
1t became very much swollen and panied
him so badly that he could not walk
without the aid of crutches. He was
treated by physicians, also used several
kinds of liniment and two and a half
gallons of whiskey in bathing it, but
nothing gave any relief until he began
using Chamberlain's Pain Balm. This
brought almost a complete cure in a
weeks time and he believes that had he
not used this remedy his leg would have
had to be a%mputated. Pain Balm IS
unequaled for sprains, bruises and
rheumatism. For sale by A. G.. Ireland.

Mrs. Smith repeatedly reminded her
husband that the silver was hers, the
furniture was hers, and so on, until poor
Smith almost wished he had married a

Mrs. Smith awoke, and vigorously
punching her husband in the ribs, called,

NEWS OF THE RACE.
All Worcester County After
Information From
The Spy.

All Worcester wanted the news of
the big yacht race, and all Worcester
therefore, turned out and crowded
around The Spy bulletin board.
Bulletins of the race, hot from the
Associated Press wires, were posted in
front of the office just as quick as a
young man, with a record for speed in
his legs, could get them there.
The Columbia was the favorite with
the betting men, but here and there
could be found lone Shamrock man
willing to venture a greenback or two
from the outside of his wad, on the tea
mans boat.
Incidentally, it may be remarked, too,
that there We're a few people in the
CT ovid that had somewhat hazy nations
of where the race was taking place,
what 1t was all about, and what the
probable result might be.
One man, who evidently doesn't de-
vote much time to reading the papers,
asked a fat bartender from Millbury
street If the race was not at Lake
Quinsigamond.
whats the use of staying around
here looking at the returns" he said.
Lets go to the lake and see it. Here s

deaf to the explanations of the crowd.

Capt.. Barr followed suit, and his nim-
BILE crew trimmed sheets just as fast
as those on the Shamrock, and when
both settled down to steady work again
at 3. Il: so, Columbia was still well in the
lead and gaining Capt Hogarth
thought it best at 2.20 to split tacks
with his antagonist, SO he put the
Shamrock on the port tack, thinking
the Columbia would not follow, but she
did, and when the latter yacht tackled
at 2.21:35, she was nearly a mile dead
to windward of the green boat.
During thenext 30minutes dozenshort
tacks were made, the wind continuing
flulxy all the time. until a few minutes
before 3 O'Clock, when the wind left
the Columbia for fully five minutes. She
had the .nshore berth, the Shamrock
off shore. held breeze from the north
east. When the Shamrock at 311 went
about on the Columbia s lee bow, she
was well ahead, that is to say, If she
had gone about she could have crossed
the Columbia's bow. Between 3.15 and
go, the Columbia, with a few fresh
puffs from the northeast, began walk
ing UP on the Shamrock, which was
then nearly a quarter of mile to wind
ward of her, but before she could over
haul the Shamrock, the wind died out
again. The Shamrock continued to
hold breeze, and by 3.35 she was near
ly half mile to windward of the Bris-
toll boat
There was a strong tide setting to the
southwest, which seemed to affect the
Columbia more than it did the Sham
rock. AS it was necessary, according
to the rules, to finish the race before
4.45, it soon became evident as, the
boats were FOUR or five miles to lee
ward, that the race would have to be
declared off. This was done at the
time named. while the boats were still
four miles away from the finish.
1t was very evident from today's per
Torrance Of the Shamrock, that she is
very fast yacht. That she is speedy
in light winds, was shown by her work
on the first half of the first leg of the
course. That she is quick in stays
was also proved by her windward work,
and it is also a fact that she stands
up to her canvass equally we'll with the
Columbia
In the matter of handling sails, there
was little to choose between the two,
and if any mistakes were made, it was
more the fault of the fiuky breezes
than of the judgment of the sailing
masters. Some idea of the windward
work of these two yachts may be gath
cred from the fact that in the IL miles
sailed from the outer mark to where
the race was concluded, the Columbia
made 25 tscks and the Shamrock 49,

was becomingly attired for the occa-

of the two boats, and frequently, in the
excitement, men would dive into their

cHINAMAN POUNDED.
Four Small Boys Disfieure Celestial
on Main Street.

Four small boys, near the corner of
Park and Main streets, about 10 o'clock
last night, set upon Chinanan and gave
him a severe drubbing. The Chinaman
had been attending a party of friends at
Gee Louies laundry, on Front street, and
at the time of the attack was on his way
home to New Worcester
Were going to cut your queue off,
said one of the boys, whereat the China
man dropped his bundle and dashed out
into the middle of the street in search of
a stone. AS the block paving was all
solidly wedged in, he was unable to se-
cure weapon of defense and turned on
the boys with his fists. Pugilism is a
neglected art in Cathay, and the China
man made as sorry a figure against the
boys as Mike Morrissey, the Tipperary
giant, did against Peter Maher He was
knocked down, his left eye was closed and
blood poured out of his nose like young
and CORY Niagara.
Bystanders interfered and rescued the
Chinaman. With a howl, he set out in
search of a policeman. 1t was a hopeless
search, and he was thinking of advertising
in the papers for an officer, when he ran
into The Spy reporter. To the reporter
he told his story. He said that his name
was Chin Lee when he went to the party,
but that now 1t was Dennis. He intends
to see the police some time today He
thinks that he can identify his assail-
ants.

Former Members of Blue Jean Com

An aattachment was served last night

Jeans" Company by Constable A. F..
Richardson. Hayes ct AL. former
members of the Baker Company,
are the plaintiffs in the case and
they sue for alleged back salary. It is an
old claim, and, according to the man
ager, has nothing to do with his com
pany. E. II. Brewer is the manager of
the Blue Jeans Company, controlled by
the Patrick & Reniger Amusement Com
pany. The manager said last night that
he started with the present company on
Aug. 81, at Haverhill, and from the be-
ginning all bills and salaries due to the
members of the company have been
promptly paid. Mr.. Brewer says that he
knows nothing about the reason Of the
present suit, and that as far as the pres
emit company is concerned there Is no
claim on them and today he will see
counsel and have the attachment re-
moved. The present company has been
playing to good houses and is making
money right along, and the manager fails
to see how he is responsible for anything
that occurred last year in a different orr
ganization.

The Columbia, with underjib, main
