team Of the Interstate League went down
today at the local Athletic Park before
the prowess OF the Georgetown College
team. The result was unexpected by the
local players, and fans as well, as they
thought they had an easy problem to
solve. but before two minutes of play
they realized that they would find 4
harder job than they had anticipated.
The Georgetown players put up Won
derful game from start to finish, and
soon demonstrated to the spectators that
they were In good shape for 50 early in
the year The Blue and Grey pitchers
played in great style and had their Oppo-
ncnts guessing at every stage of the
game. Coach Bradley worked three of
the twirlers today, Blewett holding down
the rubber for the first four innings.
His showing was superb. he having per
feet control and some puZzling twisters,
which kept his smuggling opponents in the
dark all the time. Mckay relieved Blew
EFT and also made creditable showing.
Fay took the spectators by storm. as
they all thought that he was too. frail
to be able to do effective work. Such
was not the case. as the batsmen were
cutting the air time and time again in
search of his puzzlers.
Moran and Devlin We're quite promi-
nent in their positions, and Dowling at
third showed up remarkably well. Drill

and NJ. Walsh, in left. put up a fine

Mutes then began to solve Dodge. who
had up to this time been a puzzle, and
thumped the ball all over the field. Four
hits were placed to their credit and be-
fore the third man was out as many run
ners had crossed the plate. This made
the Mutes' score a total of six, while the
High School boys had only half as many.
The latter failed to score in their half of
the seventh, and the game ended in an
easy victory Tor GalIaudet.
For a game so early in the season it
was a hrst-class contest. Counting all
the errors of both teams, the total
reached an aggregate of six, Both

FOR THE GRIP.
You Have Heard of Many Remedies
Did You Ever Try This One:


Everybody you meet on the streets now
adays either has just had the grip, is
coming down with 1t or has a sure cure
for II.
The disease has been n puzzle to physi-
clans ever since its appearance several
today as it was then. 1t exhibits such a
variety of symptoms in different individ-
uals and leaves such disastrous results
after apparent recovery that as yet its
prevention and cure have baffied medical
science.
However there is no doubt but that the
grip is catarrhal in character and the
leading symptom in nearly every case is
increased secretion i'll the head and
throat: in fact the first indications of
which extends to the throat and lungs.
DR.. johnson AmeS advises as the safest
course to pursue on the first appearance
of grip symptoms to keep TO the house
for a day or two and take Stuart s Catarrh
Tablets every hour the first day and
every two hours the following day, and
states that this will break up the trouble
before it becomes deep seated.
These CatarTh tablets are antiseptiC and
harmless and prevent fever and the fur
ther development of grip germs, and
ward off the ever present danger of pneu-
mOnia.
Dr. Gerald Simpson says: 'I have found
Stuart s Catarrh Tablets pleasant and
thoroughly reliable remedy for the grip,
especially with elderly people with whom
this prevailing disease is always danger
GUS; the tablets can be found at any
drug store. and If used freely during the
first few days of the attack will break it
up
La grippe is a catarrhal affection. the
germs are in the air, and no one is proof
against it, but the timely use of Stuart's
Catarrh Tablets Will prevent any serious
results.
