The season of catching cold is upon
US. The cough and the sneeze and the
nasal twang are to be heard on every
hand. The origin of chronic catarrh,
the most common and dreadful Of dis
eases, is a cold.
This is the way the chronic catarrh
generally begins. A person catches cold,
which hangs on longer than usual. The
cold generally starts in the head and
throat. Then follows SensitiveneSS of
the air passages which incline one to
catch cold very easily. At last the per-
son has a cold all the while seemingly
more or less discharge 1rom the nose,
hawking, splitting, frequent clearing of
the throat. nostrils stopped up, full feel
ing in the head. and sore, inf1amed
throat
The best time to treat catarrh is at
the very beginning. A bottle of Peruna
properly used, never fails to cure a COM
mon cold, thus preventing chronic ca
tarrh.
Miss Alice O'Neill, 312 Adams street,
Brooklyn, N. Y, writes:
ssi cannot say too much in favor of
Peruna, About year ago was COM
pieteIy worn out had seriods cold
and hard cough which seemed to be
in danger of affecting my lungs. If
my system had been in a stronger
condition 1t would have been much
easier to throw off this cold, but
could not seem to get any relief until
took Pera1a, and must say that 1t
did the work thoroughly. Within
week ] could see a wonderful i'm
provement and ] took Peruna four
weeks and am in perfect health now."
ALICE O'NEILL.
Miss Alice M. Walsh, 27oS Cedar street,
Seattle. Wash, writes:
Last winter / caught a very heavy
cold which settled on my lungs, and
could not get rid of it; also brought on
a disa greeable cataTrh of the head. 1
had read so much of the wonderful re-
suits from using Perura that l bought
a bottle to see what the result would be

Intruder II to Start.

New York, March as.-Intruder H., a
sterling Peg Warrington, will be Mr.. Whit
ney's colorbearer in the great British
classic. Intruder is a tough little colt with
last spring and did not get to the post.
He made the voyage to England without
sickness and has been galloping SO reso-
lutely and smoothly at Newmarket that
all the keen-witted British touts have
taken a violent shine to him.
Since he is an untried horse no one can
really tell what he will do when he takes
up his weight and begins to run for blood,
but the signs are in his favor. He is a
half brother of David .Garric1. one of the
best stayers we ever had in this country,
and his dam was daughter of Longfel-
low He is a fine individual, and, accord
ing to his opportunities, has done as we'll

OSBORNE SUMS UP.
District Attorney Makes Final
Argument i'm Patrick Case.

New York, March 26-Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Osborne summed up for
the prosecution today in the trial of AL
bert T. Patrick, accused of the murder
of VIM. NJ Rice. Mr.. Osborne referred
to what he called an attack on Captain
Baker by Mr.. Moore yesterday. 1.-THE
jury never was so much insulted." Mr..
Osborne said, land no jury was ever
treated with much contempt as
Moore showed when he attacked the
character of Capt. Baker. There is
nothing in the testimony, not a scintilla
of evidence against Baker"
Mr.. Moore objected and Recorder Golf
told Mr. Osborne to eonfine himself to
his case.
Your honor should have stopped Mr..
Moore yesterday" Mr.. Osborne protest
ed He did not keep to the recordSs
there was no word against Baker

go on with your case" ruled the re-
corder.
Mr. Moore said to you, gentlemen"
Mr.. Osborne continued, turning to the
jury, that you must disregard the tes-
timony of Jones. Well, I agree with
him. Disregard Jones' Out of the door
goes Jones. The case against Patrick
is proved without the testimony of
Jones. / will show the guilt of Patrick

New York, March 26.ZF'itzsimmons is
confident he will wrest the heavyweight
championship from Jim Jeffries, and

him. but 1 also know ways to throw
him off his guard. Once I get an OPEN

Ballvhoo Bev o. x. AGAIN.

Lexington, March 26.-Ballyhoo Bey.
the Futurity winner of 1900, has entire
ly recovered from the ailment which
retired him from the turf at the end of
his 2-year-old form, and he now shows
no signs of being a roarer, even after
the hardest kind of work and over a
long route of ground His breathing
now gives no indications that his wind
was ever affected. From all accounts
Ballyhoo Bey is in perfect condition
His legs have always been sound, and
in this respect he has never, since being
put in training as a yearling, given his
trainer any trouble. He is in the Su
burban Handicap at 123 pounds, and
John E. Madden now believes beyond Il
doubt that he can get him to the post
in the great event. The mighty Long
street was retired for a season. owing
to an ailment similar to that which af-
fiicted Ballyhoo Bey, and then returned
to the track a year later and became
king of the turf. and trainers refer to
this as an illustration that the great
Futurity winner has the same chance
to return to the turf and score new
trium phs before his racing career final
ly comes to close

While many people have been cured
of chronic catarrh by single bottle of
Peruna, yet, as rule, when the catarrh
becomes thoroughly fixed more than
one bottle is necessary to complete a
cure. Peruna has cured cases innumer-
able of catarrh of twenty years stand
ing 1t is the best, if not the only in
ternal remedy for chronic catarrh in ex-
istence.
But prevention is far better than cure.
Every person subject to catching cold
should take Peruna at once at the
slightest symptom of cold or sore throat
at this season of the year and thus pre-
vent what is almost certain to end in
chronic catarrh.

MG1NNITY HAS MALARIA.
A Series of Misfortunes Follows Balti'
more Team.

Baltimore March 26.-Baltimore. which
three weeks ago was conceded by most Of
the critics to have, next to CO1nlSkey S
white stockings the best chance at the
American league pennant. now looks out
of the race, as far as the first position is
concerned.
The latest hard luck report from the
Baltimore camp says that Iron Man"
Joe McGinnity is again suffering from ma
laria. The famous pitcher is now 10 pounds
under weight, and unless a decided i'm
provement sets in at once he will not be
fit to start the season with the orioles.
This simply caps the climax of a series
of misfortunes that have followed the Bal
timore club during the last. two weeks
McCraW's knee, coupled with the illness
of McGinnity. may cost the team three
stars and leaves the birds in a bad way
for the opening of the season. The team
is still strong one and will never be a
mean competitor even in good company
but ii is a far different one from that lined
M on paper during the early spring.

COUNSEL FOR LourHER.
Mcpherson Pastor Will Have Able
Defense in Heresy Trial.

Kansas City, Mo-, March ga special
to the Star from Mcpherson, Kan,
says:
Rev. DIR. Louther has employed the
services of Rev. Mr.. Wood of Lyons.
Kan, as his counsel in the heresy trial
before the Methodist Episcopal confer
ence at Arkansas City this week. Rev.
Mr.. Wood, who is an experienced advo-
cate in church trials maintains that
the charges against Rev G.. Louther
do not consist heresy.
Rev. ]. S. Davis, the presiding elder,
who will have charge of the proceed
ings, has left for Arkansas City. He
has engaged the services of Rev. Mr..
Aiken of Marion, Kan, to represent the
church. The trial will probably be
private according to the church rules
before a committee of thirteen elders
who will sit as a jury.
