On the Riverside grounds yesterday
afternoon, in the presence OF about
700 people, the Burns and Gendall
elevens battled for supremacy. Both
teams put into the field the best of
their material. The Burns team had a
line like a stone wall. Full Back Ev-
ans was a tower of strength, as his
line plunges were of the best Day,
at left half back, and Glynn, at left
end also did good work. The for
mer distinguished himself in the first
half, receiving the ball on a tumble,
carrying the oval for forty yards and
a touchdown. The playing of the
Gendall eleven was not marked by
any particular features, save the end
running of the backs, Gendall and
Tubbs Both the Burns team touch
downs were made by Day and Evans.

chosen with regard to its nutritive value
but for its pleasure to the palate. AS a
natural result the stomach is overloaded
with a quantity OF innutritious material
and the body is deprived Of its due nour-
ishment. Presently disease of the stoni-

THE PROSPERITY OF AMERICA
gives every man the opportunity for
good living, and almost every man takes
advantage Of the opportunity. The aver
age leborer in the United States lives as
only very prosperous people can live in
Europe. He lives too we'll. 1t is sing.
ular thing to say but it is nevertheless a
fact that one of the greatest evidences of
national prosperity is found in the great
army of dyspeptics which is being newly
recruited every day in the year by good
liyers. The great trouble is that when
a mar wakes up to the fact that his stom-
ach can't be abused with impunity, the
damage is already done. He has joined
the army of dyspeptics, the people with
"weak" stomachs. He can't eat much
now without it hurts him. His stomach
seems unduly distended after eating.
There are bitter risings and belchings
a constant feeling of discomfort and
weight in the region of the stomach.
Probably, too, the liver becomes sluggish,
and there is feeling of lassitude with
headache.
These are only few of the signs and
symptoms Of diseased stomach involv-
ing the other organs of digestion and
nutrition.
Disease won't cure itself, so that it's
folly to neglect treatment thinking "it
will be all right again after time"
Disease never stands still, so that every
days delay in using the right treatment
means worse condition.

CAME NEAR BEING DROWNED
SECRETARY MEIKLE-
JOHN HAS NARROW ESCAPE.
Caught i'm Cloudburst Last Saturday
While Campaigning Out
In Nebraska.

OMAHA, Neb.. October 23.-Assistant Sec
retary of War Meiklejohn narrowly escaped
death after a most thrilling experience Sat
urday afternoon. He spoke at Stromsburg
Polk county, and later left for Clarks four
teen miles northwest, in light buggy with
driver, intending to cover the distance in
two hours, to catch the midnight train
east.
He had gone but a third of the distance
when a cloudburst covered the whole valley
through which he was passing. Culverts
and bridges were washed away and it be-
came SO dark that it was impossible to see
the horses. Mr.. Meiklejohn and the driver
got out of the wagon and began to search
for the road. To remain where they were
seemed certain DEATH and they decided tc
leave the roadway to the instincts of the
horse. They had only three matches and
two of these were blown out on an instant
by the fury of the gale. Mr.. Meikle-
john had shirt in his grip and a bottle
OF petroleum jelly. He took the garment
and wound it securely around the butt of
the whip. He smeared the petroleum over
the linen, and with his remaining match set
the hastily improvised torch on fire. The
light disclosed a torrent of water in front
Fifty feet further and they would have
gone over into deep gully and been car
ried out to the river.
Slowly the two men picked their way back
to the roadway and with the occasional
flashes Of lightning and the aid of the
torch managed to get into Clarks six and
a half hours late and almost exhausted.

RUSSIAN AMBASSADORS RETURN.
1t Is Not Expected That He Will Be
Transferred.

The Russian ambassador, Count Casslnl,
arrives at New Y ork today on the steamer
Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse, and the entire
staff of the embassy has gone to New Iork
to greet him. He will probably remain In
New York for a week before coming on to
resume his duties here. During the ambas-
sedor's absence he has had an opportunity
to exchange views with the ruling authori-
ties at st. Petersburg and has also spent
some time at Paris and Berlin, although
most of his stay was at the German spas.
His return is expected to give greater
definiteneSS to the Russian attitude on
China. He is recognized as an authority on
the Chinese subject, having been Russian
minister at Pekin at the time the famous
treaty granting Port Arthur to Russia was
consummated.
The officials here have no reason to ex-
pect that Count Cassini will be transferred
to another station, and they treat as purely
fanciful reports circulated a month ago and
republished today 10 the effect that he
would become ambassador at Paris, being
succeeded here by NJ. de Giers. Members
of the embassy who have seen Count Cas-
SIM within fortnight in Europe learned Of
his expectation to remain at Washington,
and similar expectation was held at the
foreign Office at ST. Petersburg. During the
ambassadors absence number of stories
have been set afioat concerning him, one of
them to the effect that he would succeed
the late Count Muravieff Russian min
lister of foreign affairs, but these have been
without warrant.
