Kidney IOuDIC.
Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady
heart beats, and makes one feel as though
they had heart trouble, because the heart is
over-working in pumping thick, kidney
poisoned blood through veins and arteries.
1t used to be considered that only urinary
troubles were to be traced to the kidneys,
but now modern science proves that nearly
all constitutional diseases have their begin
ming in kidney trouble.
If you are sick you can make no mistake
by first doctoring your kidneys. The mild
and the extraordinary effect of DR.. kilmer's 5
Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy is
soon realized. 1t stands the highest for its
wonderful cures of the most distressing cases

fact that, although over $4,000 was spent
IN improving Soldiers field. there was
still prifit OF s,500.59 for the year end
ing Aug. 81 last. OF the four prom ,rent
teams. the track and crews fell slight

were some $50. OO0 $4,000 OF which was
Harvard's share OF the proceeds OF the

This excellent credit balance tided over
the slight ueficits OF the Newell and weld

What chance there was OF Ben Jordan
meeting Terry McGovern in this country
was dispelled yesterday by the receipt OF
a cable dispatch by DIR. Ordway, the
American representative OF the National
Sporting Club, London, from Match
maker Bettison 10 the effect that Jordan
had already signed TO meet MeGevern In
England.
Yesterday afternoon Joe Humphreys.
representing McGovern. had a talk with
Ordway at the Gilsey.
Humphreys told Ordway that the Adel-
phi Athletic Club OF London, a club OF
which little Is known in this country, is
anxious 10 get the match and would meet
any competition in the way Of purse mon
ey.
'McGovern prefers 10 fight before the
National Club" pursued Humphreys,
because II has n reputation.
He is anxious TO get "A good rest and
see the country and will fight Jordan IN
England on or about Derby Night But
he wants 5000 purse and not $1,000, as
announced"
II don't think the club will give Nc
Govern that much money" returned Ord
way. Jordan has already signed for
$3.50. which the club will hang up, and /
guess when McGovern wants him as an
opponent he will have to go abroad.
