Too Bad.

Our ball nine, accompanied by a large delegation of citizens, went over to Penzance to play that return game. The score stood 29 to 16 in favor of Penzance. The game was not very interesting for the Hol- brook contingent, but some of our boys really did some good playing. Savage made five runs, and home run each is credited to Gravely and Savage. All the boys did very well, but lack practice. After few good practice games they sh Id be able to make Penzance play oall. The visitors were royalty entertained by the Penzance people, and too much cannot be said of their hospitality.

The ancients believed that rheu- matism was the work of a demon within a man. Any one who has had an attack of sciatic or inAam- matory rheumatism will agree that the iniiction is demoniac enough to warrant the belief. It. has never been claimed that Chamberlain's Pain Balm would cast out demons, but it will cure rheumatism, and hundreds bear testimony to the truth of this statement. One appli- cation relieves the pain, and this quick relief which it affords is alone worth many times it's cost. For sale by F. J. Wattron, druggist.

the church was entered at night by
unknown persons who upset the
benches, smashed the lights and COM

sons who attended had time to get out
of hearing and while the sexton was
engaged in putting out the lights,
three or four unknown young men
weriSup to the window and asked him
