 Bristol, Sept 5.-A double header with Derby was played on the local grounds yesterday afternoon The first game was thoroughly hstless, as the Bristols, despite several errors, walked away from their opponents with great ease. Tuckey. who pitched for Derby, was pounded all over the lot. and the rest of the visiting club played in schoolboy fashion One of the features of the game was the hitting of Me Lean, who in four times up made three hits.
 The second game was also an easy . walkover for the Bristols, as the Der , bys did not seem to care whether they played ball or not. In the fifth inning Bristol made six hits and seven runs. , Tuckey pitched the second game also, and the Bellmakers got twenty-three | hits off his delivery. The two victories for Bristol makes it certainty that the pennant will come here. The scores:

HALF OUR ILLS ARE CATARRH.
Proof From All Sections That Pe-ru-na Cures
Catarrh Wherever Located
Peruna Cures Catarrh Wherever Located.
Peruna Not a Cure.AIl.

Peruna is not a"cure all ~; ii cures just
one disease-catarrh. But since catarrh
is able to fasten itself within the differ
emit organs of the body, so it is that Pc
runa cures affections Of these organs.
But we insist that Peruna cures one dis
ease only. We claim that Peruna is the
only internal, scientific remedy for ca
tarrh yet devised. We claim that ca
tarrh is q systemic disease; that is to
say, 1t invades the whole system. We
claim that Peruna Is systemic remedy;
that is to say, it eradicates catarrh from
the system. Catarrh is not local dis
ease; Peruna is not O local remedy.
Since catarrh invades the system, only
systemic remedy can reach it. This is,
in brief, our claim in assigning to the
disease-catarrh-our remedy, Peruna.
There is no medicine that can take its
place. Address The Peruna Medicine
Co., Columbus, o., for free catarrh book.

lowing interview with Sam Wah kee,
who Is under arrest In this city for

"Every one OF these here have passports
commissioner signed. All have pictures
on them. Most all have been in this
country 10, Is, 20 years"
"How did they happen to be down
there" asked the reporter.
"Ihey come Boston," answered sam
Wah Kee gravely. "They go Lubec-you
know Lubeo-ah we'll, they go Lubeo to

MIR. Wah Kee told the reporter that he
had been IN Boston for 20 years. and that
no one could suppose him so foolish as
to lay himself open to pnnishment in any
such way. as he is supposed to have done.
He said that ha expected things would
all turn out right, but neverths Iess he
looked bit worried, and admitted that
he didn feel calm enough to eat.

fact that the description given by Mrs
Mosher OF the whites man who broke into
her house with the xnsgro, the descrip-
tion OF those who claim to have known
McLain, the descriptions Of three men at
least who saw the white man on the Cor
ham or Sacoarappa road before the muir
der was committed and also the descrip-
tion given by the negro OF his companion
all correspond and are almost exactly
alike, there would be little In this case
to connect Nolan with the case. Ii is
true that McLaln knew this Mosher house
we'll, but so did other men who worked
there. Mrs. Mosher told the reporters the
night OF tho murder that she was not
sure the man was John McLain, but
that the man might have bean him and
in fact looked something like him. But
II MoI4ain 10 anywhere on earth and
within the reach Of newspapers 1t seems
singular that If he was not in this part
of the country the night OF the murder
that he does not pop up some where and

try is on the lookout for NOLAN and to-
day the search for him will really begin

Yesterday County Attorney Whitehouse
came to the conclusion that to delay

the county commissioners do not CON-
oeive 1t to be In their power to offer re-

Old Haunts of John
McLain Searched.
Former Farm Hand Dropped
From Sight Completely.

Another day has passed and still no
clue has oeen obtained of the white man,
supposed to be John McLain, who killed
Clifford Moshsr, The yonng Gornam farm
er on Saturday night. Not single trace
Of the man has been found since he part
cd from the negro at the corner OF Valley
and Congress strests, II he did part from
him at that place. A suspicion has been
awakened in the minds OF not only the
officers, bat of other people as welt that
Bill Hands the negro, is a monumental
liar. Yesterday an enteIprising newspa-
per man found photograph OF a man
said to be John McLain, He thought he
had the prize for which the officers have
been everywhere searching. This photo
graph was taken to the jail and showed
to the negro. Without hesitation he pro-
claimed It a picture OF John Nolan. He
was telling the truth, for 1t was man
of that name who is we'll known ana
highly respected and who resembles the
man the officers are looking for about as
much as doss Hands. We're II not for the

under the statutes. Gov. HIN said that lie
should DO everything in his power to aid
the Cumberland coanty authorities and
would place the matter before his coun-
oil this morning and II thsy appre ved of
this idea would offer a reward OF $500 for
the apprehension Of the murderer.
some additional particulars regarding
McLsin have been ascertained. He had
o very slight scar on the side OF his nose
near his right eye which would mos be
seen az the first glance. His right hand
or wrist was badly cut from tbs glass
Of the broken window and possibly left
wrist or nand also. He hsd In his pos
session some gold piecss which belonged
to Clifford Mosher collection and must
also have had about $3.50 In bills, as
Clifford Mosher had that amount OF
money or even more, so his mother says,
among his things.
1t ia hoped the reward offered by the
stats will stimulate the search for Mo-
Lain somewhat and 1t Is proposed to
make 1t even larger than that mentioned
above as soon as Gorham's citizens have
chance to get together to vote the
amount.
Among other places searched yesterday
ware the barns and buildings OF the
Mosher plsos and many other localities
in and about the scene OF the murder.
but nothing was developed BY this
search. The house Of woman whom
Nolan knew was also searched, but
without success, In Portland the police
went through every possible hiding place
that they could think OF, but without sue
cess.
A hundred people and even more than
that number think they saw Nolan on
Sunday, but It is doubtful II any of them
really did Lsee him.
Last night 1t was learned that a man
wearing a grey suit Of clothes, but no
oyerooat, and whose blue cap was too
small for him had bsen frequent caller
at the night lunch wagon at the corner
OF Federal and Middle streets, but he has
not been seen there since Friday night
and was not known. On Thursday the
negro and a white man sat for some time
in place on Federal street and talked o
little while together. This corroboratss
ths Negroes story of where he first met
McLain. The description given OF the
white man who was with this negro there
seems to tally pretty well with that al
ready given out. A man VINO claimed
to have known Nolan said that he,saw
him passing Rioe's grocery store in Lib
Uptown on the Saocarappa road about
O'Clock and behind him some distance
came the negro.
I The sheriff has letter. written by Mo
Lain last September to Charles Dow of
West Pownal store keeper, who loaned
McLain a dollar and half some time in
September on his valise and its con-
tents. The letter was written returning
the money and asking for the valise to be
sent to Andover, Maine. 1t Is hoped
that this letter may aid In identifying
Nolan II he is found by means Of the
handwriting.
The negro has told his counsel, SO 1t IL
said, that he had nothing to do with the
murder and took no part In 1t in any
way.
