There is more catarrh in this sec
ton of the country than in all other
diseases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed to he
incuTable. For great many years
doctors pronounced il a local dis
ease, and prescribed local remedies,
and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced it
incurable. Science has proven ca
tarrh TO be a constitutional disease,
and, therefore, requires constitu-
tionaI treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by +. j. Cheney

FATS VS.. THINs
Exciting Baseball Contest To-
morrow Afternoon at Twelfth
Street Park.
FOR THE CEMETERY ROAD FUND
To Be Called Promptly at 3:3O.-
Both Teams Conf
dent.

Tomorrow afternoon the baseball
game between the fats" and the
'thins" for the benefit of the Gene
terry road improvement fund, viii be
played at the Twelfth street park
The contest will be put on promptly
at $3.50 o'clock or as soon thereafter
respective toilets.
Both teams, individually and col
lectively, are in the pink of condi-
ton. The fats feeling that their
physical advantage would be en-
HANGED thereby. have devoted them
selves assiduously to a fattcning
diet for the past week. with the re-
suit that there has been a distinct
gain in avoirdupois all along the line.
The 'thins." on the other hand.
likewise relying upon their physical
peculiarities for their title to a vic
tory, have generally abstained from
all kinds of food that might tend to
increase their weight. Some have
even gone so far as to forego eating
altogether and others have reduced
themselves to Il vinegar diet.
The result of these widely varying
methods of training has been to
stimulate interest in the match to a
pitch that threatens to depopulate
the business section of the city while
it is on.
From the calculations of the CON
testants on both sides, it appears
that the route around the bases will
need improving after the game fully
as badly as the route to the Gene
terry. for the former IL certain to he
a hard travelled road. Members on
both sides arc sparing no personal
pains to stimulate fast ball and a
great deal of il.

Attendance Increases.

President Sexton says the attend
ance all over the circuit is much bet
ter than last year. There has been
some tagging at Cedar Rapids, and
Terre Haute has been hurt some by
the strike. Speaking of expenses,
the. president said he supposed all
the clubs were going over the limit
some, but he did not suppose any
body had any kick coming as long
as the teams are so well matched and
the attendance so good. He remark
ed. however. that he could not allow
anybody TO get reckless and endan-
ger the life of any club or the league
itself by going into deep water. He
saws he believes the quality of ball
TO be as good as any played in the
country in any league, and the PEN
nant race to be harder fight than
in most of-the other organizations.
While the feeling is high, there is no
particularly bad spirit shown and
the only serious trouble has been
over umpires.-Decatur Review.

G0MPERS AND WI
A LABOR HEARING
The Labor Leader Resents Observa-
lions Made by the Chinese Minister

Washington. Feb. 3.-The house COM
mittee on foreign affairs today heard
Immigration Commissioner Puwderly
and President Gompers OF the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor in favor Of the
strict Chinese exclusion provided for in
the MitcheH-Kahn bill.
Mr.. Gompers spoke of the extent Of
Asiatic contaminati0-. and the de-
Inoralization or our labor on the Pacific
coast. The Chinese worker who earned
81 and consumed . cents a day impoV-
e,islled American labor and reduced the
standard of living. To the argument
that had been advanced that American
working men would nave to meet Eu-
ropean and Chinese standards of cheap
living. Mir. Gompers answered that il
long hours and low wages meant indus
trial superiority. then China you'd
have been at the head of the industrial
nations or the world.
In the course Of his remarks Mr..
Gompers criticised WI Ting Fang. the
Chinese minister. saying: Il resent the
snccri1g remark OF the foreign diplomat
that l am an agitatcr. or a labor agi-
tator. or that the Iaboring people or
this country who are endeavorinS to
protect themselves from Chinese labor
are asitators.
y deny the right OF a representative
OF 4 foreign government addressing
himself to an official Of our government
and referring to American citizens by
name in such manner. particularly
when such reference is Of a derogatory
character. The Chinese minister is
treated in this country with every be
coming courtesy and he has no right
to make insinuations upon American
citizens. TDon behalf of the laboring
men OF this country, whom l represent
as the president OF the Federation OF
Labor. l repeat that l resent these re
marks on the part Of the Chinese min
ister"

The State Department Wants No Item

Washington. Feb. 3.-In response to

notified the senate committee on appro-
priations that the department would be
able TO make provision for the expenses
Of the repres entatives Of this country in
England incident to the coronation of
King Edward VII. from its resources
and therefore no especial appropria-
ton will be necessary for that purpose.
The committee therefore did not make

item OF expense. as it had agreed on
Saturday last to do The committee
also decided that the provision in the
bill as IL came from the house for an
appropriation of $4,000 to be used by
the president in meeting unforeseen
emergencies would ne sufficient to
cover the expense OF the government
in connection with the approaching
visit OF Prince Henry. and no specific

A $1,000, 600 FIRE
AT WATERBURY, CONN.
1t Is Believed There Was An Attempt
to Destroy the Town.

Waterbury. Conn, Feb. 3.-The sun
rose this morning on a blackened and
smouldering mass of ruins that marked
the main business section of the city,
condition resulting from last nights
fre.
\ revised list of losses and insurance
is very difficult to obtain at this time.
Il is believed that when the truth is
known the estimated loss of $@,O0o000
will not be FAR from correct. There was
10 loss of life.
There is a strong suspicion that the
fire which destroyed the Scovin house
wa sthe work OF an incendiary. The fire
originated in the pool and billiard room
in the basement of the house. on the
farther side from the burning district.
The room was locked and no one was
supposed to be in there. nor was any
fire kept i'm the room. The fire came so
close on the heels of the big coniagra-
ton that the thousands of spectators
who Witnessed it We're thrown into a
more complete panic than the original
fire caused.
The flames had only begun to die out
along Bank. Grand and South Main
streets at ! O'Clock. when the flames
leaDed upward as if by magic and the
people feared that the city was doomed
after all The engines that hurried TO
the scene turned their attention mainly
to preventing Il spread OF the flames.
1t vas evident that the hotel was
doomed, and if the fire had reached the
adjacent buildings there would have
been very little hope of saving the cen
ter of the city. The fire burned far into
the day and was not extinguished en-
tirelv until evening

 A few more such exhibitions as that of yesterday and the game in this city will go to the dogs. It is wonder that the fans have patronized the game thus far. It would be better to ex- pend some money in getting players than in fixing up the grounds. There was no crying need for that change but there is a big demand for recon structiOn of the team from the top to the bottom. New London won yes terday's game through good hitting at opportune times and errors by the To- cal players. There was also consider able foolish playing and the fans left the grounds once more disgusted. After we had tied the score in the seventh inning things looked brighter but Clancy was not getting the support he should have received and he was tired out as we'll from previous hard work, and the consequences were he was hit hard in the last inning and New Lon- don won.
