Misses Tah,ha and Litita Jones, of Elk

According to celebrated anatomist there

According to celebrated anatomist there
are upwards of 100000 little glands in
the human stomach. These glands pour
out the digestive juices which dissolve or
digest the food. Indigestion is want Of
juice, weakness Of glands need Of help to
restore the health of these organs. The
best and most natural help is that given by
Shaker Digestive Cordial. Natural, because
it supplies the materials needed by the
glands TO prepare the digestive juices. BIZ
cause it strengthens and invigorates the
glands and the stomach, until they are
able to do their work alone. Shaker Di-
gestve Cordial cures indigestion certainly
and permanently. 1t does so by natural
means, and therein lies the secret OF its
wonderful and UNMARRIED success.

public of several things, viz. That good
base ball team, when under the proper
management, can be gotten up entirely
from among Elkton boys; that Elkton now
has one of the most promising young
pitchers in Cecil county, if not in Mary
land, and that they are able to meet and
defeat any club in Cecil county.

RULE BLOCKS Way
Senate Cannot Increase the Pen
sion OF a Needy and De-
serving Veteran.

La Crosse, Wis, March 31.-I Spe-
cial. IA recently-proclaimed rule of the
Senate pension committee is soon to be
put to the test by an interesting case
from this city. 1t is the case of Bar
rey Dunn of this city, who served
throughout the Civil war in an Iowa reg
iment. He received wounds that never
healed and his intirmities have gradually
grown npon him until he is now absolute
ly helpless and he suffers intense pain
continually. He has been bedridden for
the past eight years. He now draws Il
pension of S24 per month. He original
ly drew ST.. This was some time ago
increased to S24 by special act of Con
sress. Lately his Grand Army friends
started movement to secure further
increase to SD per month. Congressman
Esch got the matter through the House
committee on pensions. when he found
that the Senate committee on invalid pen
sion claims had recently adopted a new.
rule which virtually shut out from all
consideration all pension bills asking for
IN increase of pension after an increase
had once been granted through special
bill. Senator Quarles is Il member Of
that committee. He admits that the rul-
ing IS q most arbitrary and unreason-
able one, and he has promised to do ali
IN his power to secure its abrogatiOn.
The ruling will affect many pension
known to many until just recently. Sen
ator Quarles and Congressman Esch are
being flooded with petitions and personal
letters asking them to take up the Dunn
case and push it through to speedy and

Juvenile Sparring Match in wifi Oh
One Boy WAS Knocked Out.

New York, March 31.-As the result
of injuries received III a juvenile spar
ring match, it is feared that Thomas
McGregor Of this city may die. More
than a score of youngsters assembled III
the basement of tenement house to wit
ness Il bout between McGregor and
Thomas Nelson. Both of the boxers are
rs years old. There were the usual add
juncts Of seconds and bOttlC-hoders. The
Youngsters wore gloves moderately pad
ded, and went at each other in the fierce,
wild way affected by boxers of that age.
Nelson landed a heavy blow on the right
side Of McGregor's head. The boy fell
to the floor like a log. The youths, see
ing that there was something wrong
when McGregor paid no attention to the
counting Of the referee, sent for Il physi-
clan. The doctor found that the Nc
Oregon boy had a cerebral hemcrrhage
and was in danger of dying.
Nelson was arrested and taken to the
police station. He said that there had
been a friendly sparring match, and that
he and the injured boy were the best of
friends.
One of the physicians attending Nc
Oregon said the boy had sustained a frac-
ture of the base of the skull, and that
there is very slight hopes of his recov-
cry.
Young Nelson, with whom McGregor
was boxing, has been held without bail
to await the result Of McGregor's in
