GEORGETOWN WINS AGAIN.
The Pennsylvania Team Heaten in "A
stubborn Contest.

The University of Pennsylvania baseball
/ club, who suffered their first defeat Tues
day at the hands Of the University of Vlr-
ginia team, were the Georgetowns' oppo-
nents In a game Of ball on the varsity
/ grounds yesterday afternoon. After many
changes and try-Outs, Coach Irwin has
succeeded in getting together a clever lot
Of youngsters who will, with more ex-
perience, take prominent position in the
perrant race Yesterday was probably
| the first time during the season that they
have had an opportunity to go up against
the real thing" How well they acquitted
themselves is told by the score.
The local collegians, having had several
days rest. were in splendid condition, and
went into the game with determination.
Considering the presence OF a circus in
the city there was an Unexpectedly large
audience present, the grandstand as usual,
being filled with vOcifeTous rooters Of
both sexes.
Tom Brown was selected as umpire. and.
promptly on time, he called the players
to the field. and the spectators witnessed
a tiresome contest. Aside from the local
interest in the result the game was fea-
tureless
The Quakers started the run getting in
the second inning. Collier singled, after
two men had been retired and White had
gone to first on a fielder's choice, and
reached the plate with the first run.
Illusions base on error scored White.
The locals scored two runs in the last
half of the second. Burbank struck cut,
Devlin went to first on balls, Smith sin
gled, White went TO first on a fielders
choice. and MOran's three Dagger brought
Devlin and Smith across the plate.
The visitors scored again in the fourth
inning. Brown struck out Layton walked,
White went out, Smith to Devlin, ad
vancing Layton, when Collier made his
third hit scoring Layton. Collier was left
at third. This ended the scoring so far
as the visitors were concerned. They were
one run in the lead which they maintain
until the end Of the eighth. when Walsh
walked, stole second, and scored on an
error. The ninth inning ended in no runs.
The visitors failed to score in their half
of the tenth, but the locals, who are
always fast fnishers went to bat and
Moran made his third hit of the game,
went to second on Downes' out. and came
home on Walsh's fly to Huston, winning
the game amid much boisterOus rejoicing.
1t was a hard game, and its loss to
the visitors is justly attributed to many
and expensive errors. Collier was left at
third base twice, while Moran anchored
there three times, waiting lot NIT 10
bring him in. The game put up by the
Pennsylvanians was d surprise to the spec
tators, who rather expected an easy thing.

AN OBJE T LESSON.


A physician put the query: Have you
never noticed in any large restaurant at
lunch or dinner time the large number of
hearty. vigorous old men at the tables;
men whose ages run from so to so years;
many Of them bald and all perhaps grey,
but none of them feeble or senile?
Perhaps the spectacle is so common as
to have escaped your observation or COM
ment, but nevertheless it is an object
lesson which means something.
II you will notice what these hearty old
fellows are eating you will observe that
they are not munching bran crackers nor
gingerly picking their way through a menu
card of new tangled health foods; on the
contrary they seem TO prefer a juicy roast
of beef, a properly turned loin of mutton,
and even the deadly broiled lobster is not
altogether ignored.
The point Of all this is that a vigorous
old age depends upon good digestion and
plenty of wholesome food and not upon
dieting and an endeavor TO live upon bran
crackers.
There is certain class of food cranks
who seem to believe that meat, coffee, and
many other good things are rank pOisons,
but these cadayerous sickly looking indi-
viduals are walking condemnation Of
their own theories.
The matter in a nutshell is that If he
stomach ScCreteS the natural digestive
juices in sufficient quantity any whole
some food will be promptly digested; il
the stomach does not do so, and certain
foods GAUGE distress one or two OF Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets after each meal will
remove all difficulty because they supply
Just what every weak stomach lacks, pep
sin. hydro chloric acid, distastes and nuX.
stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets do not act
upon the bowels and in fact are not
strictly q medicine. as they act almost en-
tirely upon the food eaten, digesting it
thoroughly and thus gives much needed
rest and giving an appetite for the Lext
meal.
OF people who travel nine out Of ten
use Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets, knowing
them to be perfectly safe to use at any
time and also having found out by expe-
rience that they are a safeguard against
Indigestion in any form, and eating as
they have to, at all hours and all kinds Of
food, the travelling public for years have
pinned their faith to Stuart's Tablets.
All druggists sell them at so cents for
full sized packages and any druggist from
Maine to California, if his opinion were
asked, will say that Stuarts Dyspepsia
Tablets is the most popular and success
full remedy for any stomach trouble.

HOW THE CLUBS STAND.

PHILADELPHIA, April 25.-The Brook
Ign Champions won the second game from
the Phillies this afternoon by attending
strictly to business. From a spectacular
standpoint the contest was not so salts
flying as that Of Tuesday. Dunn and Piatt
were the opposing pitchers, and the latter
had several shades the better Of II, al
though he was hit hard, eleven men going
out to the outfielders. His good work,
however, was nullifed by the Indifferent
character of his support. The Champions
played a much better game, both at bat
and in the field. The hitting of Flick was
again the feature Of the Phillies play.

The principal reasons upon which the

Heroes Die.

81 am ready to die a soldiers death
at any time. ] have no fears for my
self. But / am sorely troubled when
think of what would become of my
wife and children in such an event"
Thus spoke Gen. Henry w. Lawton
to a friend last summer. He died as
heroes die--at the head of his men in
warm engagement and while aiding
a wounded subordinate. He left no
fortune. Forty years of his life were
given to his country, but his pay was
inadequate to do more than support
himself and his family. But n CRATE
full country will care for them. The
fund which is to be presented to Mrs.
Lawton as q testimonial of Americans
admiration for her gallant husband
will probably reach $4,000. 1t is
growing fast.
Mrs. Lawton was Miss Craig, of Red
lands, Cal. and the generals happiest
days were spent on their fruit farm in
California, when the great soldier was
stationed at Los Angeles. The orange
groves and the residence at Redlands
are heavily mortgaged, but the fund
will provide for this and for her future
comfort. Mrs. Lawton and the chill
dren are at Manila.
The marriage of the general and
Mrs. Lawton was unusual. At the
Craig homestead, near Louisville, Ky,
lives a favorite and invalid cousin of
Mrs. Lawton, who was anxious TO
witness the marriage ceremony. A
few days before the date set for the
wedding the cousin began to fail. 1t
was seen that she was dying. She
realized II and asked that Gen. (then
major) Lawton and his bride-to-be be
summoned to her bedside and there
tthe day before the appointed date)
Miss Craig became Mrs. Lawton.
