It looks as if that fast bunch of pitch CTS that Manager Barrow has rounded up for his Tigers Is going to make the Amer lean League hitters look like a mutilated Io cent piece. Yesterday Nal Eason played ping-pon with that gang of Blue birds from Cleveland duplicating the per formance of Wild BIll" Donovan. Jack Deering or Kissinger will probably pitch the last of the Detroit Cleveland games today. and if either of the .'youngsters' are in the form that they showed in Montgomery Bill Armour will have to smooth out the battered feathers of his flock.
 Hughes pitched a great game for Bos- ton. shutting out the Athletics with only four hits. while Rube Waddell seemed to be just what Boston was looking for.
 Algy. Cheesbro let Washington down with six hits while Wilson was hammered for eleven and was miserably supported
 St. Louis and Cleveland have an off- day tomorrow, St. Louis playing in Cleveland Tuesday. Wednesday and Thursday.
 The White sox play in Detroit Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and it ought to be three easy games for the Tigers.
 Boston in Washington and New York in Philadelphia play Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.
 The attendance yesterday was 1s, 7s4, the increased attendance in Detroit being es- pecially noticeable, and today there will probably be the largest crowd they ever had there, the fast team doing the work.

MY SUCCESS

in curing diseases that other doctors have failed to benefit Is due to the careful and correct diagnosis that I make before my treatment begins.
 The human body is a most delicate ma- chine and requires most careful thought by one of years of practical experience before it can be successfully treated.
 very large percentage of the fail ures by doctors today is due to incorrect diagnosis.
 The thousands of cures that I bring about annually are proof positive that my diagnosis and treatment are correct.

her home on a pretense of marrying
her, and has what he supposes a mock
ceremony performed, through an ac-
complete of his. Following events,
hoWeved, prove that the marriage was
a legal one and that the accomplice was
mot such fool as he looks Upon
the villain. discovering this fact he
makes every effort to do away with the
life of Kate, and even goes so far as to
attempt the Wrecking of two trains by
a head-on collision by turning switch.
He does this, being ully aware that
Kate and her father are on one of the
tains, and that the success of his plan
will be likely to result in the death of
both of them. How his scheme is frus-
trated and the switch turned just in

life-lke trains pass each other at full
speed in full view of the audience, is
said to be one of the strongest spectac-
ular sensational scenes ever witnessed

Importance of Recovery of Two Stand

Watching the market closely for a re-
covery when the interior begins to send
back funds to New York and money he
comes easier. The few scattering indi
cations of a relaxation of the money
market did not appear sufficient to in
duce buying much beyond the ranks of
the professional shorts, who have be-
come uneasy over the cessation of the
liquidation in stocks and show anxiety
to cover. The cessation of the recent
persistent selling of New York Central
and Pennsylvania was a particularly
favora BILE influence in a negative way.
1t has been feared that the recent SELL
ing of Pennsylvania was for the pur-
pose of making good losses sustained in
a project that has come to grief. The
recovery in those two standard stocks
is, therefore, of great sentimanetl intlu-
enCe on the market.
Money conditions are undeniably less
stringent. The advancing course of
foreign exchange is a significant evil
