A GREAT CURE

Men, you can be cured while you sleep. In
fifteen days.! "Gran- Solvent dissolves
urethral distractions like snow beneath the
sun, reduces enlarged gland contracts and
strengthens the parts, forever stopping drains
and losses in fifteen days.
No drugs to ruin the stomach, but direct.
local and positive application to the entire
tract.
Gran Solvent is the wonder Of the century.
Discovered by the Chemist Fabrion, it quickly
interested the great Scientist and Physician,
Erdman, who developed it and proclaimed that
marvellous action in Urethral Ailments which
electrified the world. :;
At enormous expense outstripped all
competitors, and secured exclusive control on
the Western Continent.
Gran Solvent is not q liquid. 1t Is pre-
pared in the form of Crayons or Pencils,
smooth and flexible, and so narrow as to pass
the closest obstruction. !
The great virtue in the method Of applica-
ton is its direct and positive action. NO vile,
drastic drugs to ruin the stomach and diges-
tive system. The Crayons are inserted upon
secretlons of the body IN three hours, which
is sufficient time to penetrate and dissolve
urethral distractions, dislOdging the granu
lar mass root and branch, together with the
false membrane upon which it forms, thor

From time im1nemorial cutting and dilat-

Harold Cribbins, who has been getting

suit. -~t.. 1."' ..- #-+' 80 f's.'.
In the first inning Harold evidently had
failed to hear the alarm clock, and sew
eral things happened in this round which
look bad In the score. To begin with the
brewers got three safe drives off Cribbins.
Not satisfied with this. Cribbins got tan
gled In his lines while fielding couple
OF baby grounders, and in addition he
dropped a short throw; from Byers when
two brewers attempted a double steal.
In spite of this bunch of bad things the
visitors only collected, two runs Outside
OF this inning and the fourth Cribbins'
work was above par, but these two inn
ings were quite enough.
Perry Werden and Quillin got into the
error column, but on the whole the work
OF the team was good. Grants fielding
was high class, and the batting of Yeager
and Lally enlivened the fans considerable.
The new catcher hit for three singles and
double, and covered third in fair style.
Manager Wilmot did not play for some
unknown reason, and a youth named Sui
livan performed in right garden. He ac-
cepted his one fielding chance but failed
to make hit, although he had two op-
portunities to distinguish himself with

TAFT'S GREAT RECEPTION
+ ENTHUSIASM IN MANILA
THE
The Governor Tells of. II ~ p El15peri-
ences mt Washington and
at ROme., - 4 IT

Manila Aus. % The reception to Gov
ernor Taft was the grandest affair in the
history Of the Philippines. The residents
of the islands state it was never ap-t
preached in any way in the Spanish royal
celebrations. /. !#45
The governor landed opposite Fort San
tiago and was saluted by 100000 people,
including the entire Manila garrison,
members of the federal party. Chinese,
Americans, Filipinos, members of the
chambers of commerce, American and
other clubs and schools and provincial,
delegations. A procession of carriages
that reached for mile and half acted
streets that were lined with flags. There
were eight triumphal arches Children
threw flowers as the governors carriage
passed and released doves.
Governor Taft was moved by these
demonstrations. In speech in reply to
addresses, the governor told in an in
teresting, straightforward way of his ex
periences at Washington and Rome. He
said the American congress was actuated
solely in the legislation for the islands
for the best interests of the people.
He went on to say that possibly some
OF the measures that appeared restrictive
would be modified If it were found that
they were detrimental to business. The
governor laid particular emphasis on the
statement that the United States was
moved by the kindliest and most gener-
Gus feelings toward the Filipinos. The
statement was greeted with great ap
plause. He predicted that American tariff
duties on Philippine products would be re-
duced in two years to practically free
trade basis. He urged his hearers to
avoid useless political agitation and to
turn their attention to agriculture and
manufactures. This sentiment was greet
ed with applause.
Governor Taft told about the negotia-
tions at Rome in regard to the church
property and the friars. He said the
matter had not been completed, but the
sale of the church lands to the govern
ment was assured. The money would re-
main, through the arrangement, on the
islands, instead of going to the variou .
orders Of friars.
Ten thousand provincials, with, local
officials, who have been living on the
lands owned by the friars, and not pay
ing rent therefor since the outbreak Of the
war, came from Cavite, Laguna, Bulu-
can and Batuan. They were particularly
anxious to learn about the disposition of
their farms, which were originally owned
by the friars. They cheered the gov
ernor's speech enthusiastically. ..

First Baptist Church Pastor Meets
with Success on Coast.
The Pacific Baptist reports that Rev.
W. B. Riley Of this city Is meeting With
great success as supply of the First
church pulpit Of Portland, Oregon. Con-
versions have occurred at twoEr Sunday
evening meetings. He has preached at
afternoon street meetings attended by
500 men and many auditors have been fa-
vorably impressed. The Baptist says:
&"Dr. Riley appeals to hearers by his
simplicity of manner, the directness of his
speech, the beauty and forcefulness Of
his illustrations, and the earnestness with
which he delivers the gospel message.
His coming will result in great good to
the First church. and has been the means
Of awakening in the membership and con-
gregation, as never before perhaps re-
allied, that the real mission Of church is
the conversion of men. Last week DR..
Riley went deer hunting and was for

Chicago, Aug. 23.---Grand Duke Boris Is
not ready to leave Chicago. While his
royal attendants have been arranging for
his entertainment in New York, the cousin
Of the czar is framing excuses to remain
in this city. Engagements, once postponed,
may be again delayed, even though the
members Of Duke Boris party are becon-
ing almost frenzied in their entreaties for
the royal traveller to continue his trip
eastward. +i%
But the grand duke likes Chicago. He
has been here almost a week, and, al
though the end Of his stay was announced
for to-day after several postponements, it
is by no means certain that he will go at
the appointed time. Chicago is demo-
cratic, and the duke likes democracy.
'The grand duke cannot make up his
mind to leave the city, said Baron schlip-
penbach last night. HE likes the people
here, and has been having jolly time
every minute. There is no reason why he
should go. The engagements in the east

HOT POKER END
1t Is Being Passed Out to Mr. Gates
and His CroGyd.

and His CroSyd.
New York. Aug. 23.-Three million four
hundred Thousand dollars was Wall
streets estimate yesterday of the losses
sustained by John w Gates and his CO.
terie up to that hour through their at
tempt to secure control OF the Colorado
Fuel and Iron company.
When Gates plotted his big gamble his
intention was to GUST Chairman Osgood
and the latters board Of directors at the
annual meeting on Aug. 20, take over con-
troll of the property and turn it into the
United States Steel company at a pretty
advance over the price that he and his as
sociates had paid for control.
All this was calculated to send the mar
ket yrocketting, and there were millions
in 1t for the Chicago crowd, who had
loaded up with 200, 900 shares of the com
mon stock. But this time the hero of
the corn corner and the Louisville &
Nashville coup got hold Of the "hot end"
The gentleman who passed it to them
was Chairman Robert E. Osgood of the
board Of directors Of the Colorado COM
pany. He had his board of directors pass
a resolution declaring that all stock
transfers would have to be registered un-
der the laws of Colorado, aso that they
would have to keep a stock list for the
registering of stock and of all instances
]
As this had not and could not be done,
one of Mr.. Osgood's kind friends secured
from Colorado judge an injunction de-
ferring the annual meeting until the law
had been complied with.
On Aug. IA, the date when the injunc-
tion proceedings were inaugurated,% Colo
rado Fuel and Iron was at 81. It broke
one point and four days later, on the
granting Of the Injunction, came a slump
of points. A break of 5 more followed
the passage of Aug. 20 without an annual
election. OF course every point drop
meant a loss of S200, 900 to the Gates fac
tion with it's 100000 shares. Then some
one began turning the stock loose In
Wall street and the pounding carried the
price down to 1871, the lowest point
touched yesterday.
. Wall street is. wondering whether the
Gates crowd is unloading in spite Of their
assertions that they, will hold out and
smash Osgood if they have to hold out
until Saratoga: becomes1a Sunday school
resort. Wall street is enjoying the joke
on Mr.. Gates, who, with all but 10000
shares out of 240,000, cannot get control
Of the Colorado property and cannot let
go without dropping millions.
