Stories OF the wildcat description are
making the rounds and u would keep
m busy to keep track Of all OF them,
writes a Boston correspondent OF
Sporting Life. One beautiful Sunday
= visiting correspondent flashed home
that Scmers was to be bought out
here. He got the Idea from the same
quarter that credited Ned Hanlon with
buying out StalIinss' interest In the
Detroit club. Somers thinks he has q
good thing In Boston aud Stallings Is
evidently of the same opinion as far
az his venture In Detroit Is concerned.
Certainly In his correspondence with
his representatives here Mr.. Somers
has o given the least indication that
he has any intention OF quitting this
Aeid In favor Of anybody else. Presi-
dent Ban johnson has the first option
ON the club and 10 there is to be a
change Its manipulation would be en-
tireIy In his hands. II Mr.. Somers de.
sired to
Get RIA ot the Club.
II would be only because he had so
many IRONS In the Are that he cannot
keep track of all. Hc IL an extremely
busy young man. and Is kept on the
hustle all the time. He IL very fond
OF base ball. and his greatest ambition
was to have a winner. Mr.. Somers
has kert In touch with HIS club at all
times. and has not only taken an ac-
tive part In Its handling. even at a dis
lance, but haS Q planning earnestly
to strengthen Il. 80 everything would
tend tn indicate that he does not in.
tend to relax his grasp upon the
reins. There Is no doubt that Mr..
Somers has boon offered big money to
get out OF the ring. But for him tho
present expansion OF the American
league could scarcely have been ac-
comptished. II took chunks OF nerve
to come into Boston. find u suitable
ground and equip II. but he was equal
to the task.

very much on the quiet. IL IL said
that Tenney Is one OF these men. Ten

Soden last week. and said he was not
ready to sign at that time. and this
can DO taken for what II Is worth. An
other story had Herman Long down
Tor an American berth. Long has been
seen by his present employers, but has
o yet signed u contract. Another
man Ia said to he Moran, the catcher. |
The men who have signed contracts |
thus far are Pittenger. Kittredge and
Demont. Doubtless these men were
wanted IN the other side. Pitt"

more.

High Pressure Days.

Men and women alike have to
work necessarily with brain and
hand to hold their own nowadays.
Never were the demands of bust
ness, the wants Of the family, the
requirements Of society, more
numerous. The first effect of the
praiseworthy effort to keep up with
all these things is commonly seen
in weakened or debilited cOndi-
ton Of the nervous system, which
results in dyspepsia, defective nu-
triton Of both body and brain, and
in extreme cases in complete ner-
vous prostratiOn. 1t is clearly
seen that what is needed is what
will sustain the system, give vigOr
and tone to the nerves, and keep
the digestive and assImllatlve tunc-
tions healthy and active. From
personal knowledge, we can re-
commend Hoods Sarsaparrilla for
this purpose. 1t acts on all the
vital organs, builds up The whole
system, and fits men and women
for these high-pressWe days.

From Ell Sauz.

Rangers Robuck and Wallace

arrested by them in the neighbOr-
hood of Ell Sauz. Three of the
prisoners are charged with cattle
theft, aud the other two are wit
nesses. There were seven arrests
made, as stated in THE HERALD,

not sufficient evidence to Justify
their being held. The examining

justice of the peace of the Sauz
precinct, and they were placed
under $1,000 bond each. Until
they secure bond they will remain

Col. Richard Somers dismounted and
took refuge upon the veranda of a
little cottage that fronted a cross
road near Mechanicsville while his ar
tillery thundered by and unlimbered
in position to face the enemy. Men,
horses and officers were worn out with
fatigue and hard fighting and eager
for an opportunity to snatch few
hours of rest. The two great armies
had entered upon the memorable
seven days fight which was to swing
around Richmond and leave bloody
path to Malvern hill. The cottage
seemed deserted, but presently an
aged negress made her appearance
