picture of health, hardy and athletic,
Suddenly begin to fail? At first he
has slight cough, which he laughs
at. Presently the cough becomes deep
seated. The scales tell him he is losing
flesh. A little later and the lungs bleed.
He grows weaker and more and more
emaciated. Each day sees some circum-
scribing of his activities, until at last he
does not leave the house, and friends
shake their heads and say, "Poor fel-
low! Who would ever have believed it
possiblel"
But what are the doctors doing all this
time! Doing their best probably, but
usually doing no lasting good. The
emaciation grows more marked, the
weakness more apparent, until at last the
sick man hears the sentence, where's

It is just at this very point OF hope
lessness that the use of DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery has proven
the first step to health to many suf-
ferer. 1t cures the cough, stops the
hemorrhage, heals the lungs, puts sound
flesh upon the body, and sends the man
back to the activities of life as strong as
ever. It's a wonderful statement, but
it is literally true, that "Golden Medical
Discovery" has cured time and time
again when all other means had abso-
1utely failed to benefit.
There is no alcohol in the Discovery"
and it is absolutely free from opium, CO.
caine, and all other narcotics.
Persons suffering from disease in
chronic form are invited to consult DR..
R. v. Pierce, by letter, free. All cor
respondence is private and the conf
dences of the sick are guarded with pro-
fessional privacy. The success of the
methods and medicines of DR.. R. v.
Pierce, may be inferred from the fact
that of the thousands treated by him
and his assistant staff of nearly a score
of physicians ninety-eight per cent. have
been perfectly and permanently cured.

Hopper Winner of the Sydney Thou
 sand," Was Minneapolis Amateur.
 It is not often that an amateur cyclist who is not generally known at home can turn professional, go to Australia and beat out the best professional riders there, and Major Taylor as well, for the biggest purse, hung up in that land of big purses for cycle races-~. Yet this Is what young N. c. Hopper, the Amer ican boy from out of the west, has just done, and his performance suggests that perhaps 8 new cycling phenome- non is at hand. It was last Thursday that Hopper won the great Sydney Thousand" at Sydney, Australia, and the majority of persons here have since then been wondering who he is. He Is a youth from Minneapolis, who al- though little known in the east, except to riders and regular followers of the game, has been a conspicuous figure in amateur racing at Salt Lake City. Twice out there last summer be low cred the amateur record for quarter of a mile in competition, although his figures were subsequently lowered by Marcus Hurley. Last fall he turned professional and went to Australia. The race won by Hopper is an annual event that was instituted last year. The total purse is a1,O0O and the win- ner's portion of this is G75O, or about $3, 75O. This is more than the win ner's portion in the great Austral wheel race run every fall on the grass. D. J. Walker, the Australian champion, Major Taylor, and Robl, the German rider, were all beaten by Hopper. Walker was second.
 Private advices from Paris state that the French are wild over little Joe Nelson, who beat out Jimmy Michael there last Sunday in a twenty kilo- metre race. Michael has been the idol of the Parisians and Nelson beat him in fast time, averaging 1:23 3-5 mile for the twelve miles Of the race The fact that Michael had been there for some time, training and racing, while Nelson had been only eleven days off the steamer; made the victory more re- It was Nelson's first race in France and it jumped him into pop ularity.

BASKETBALL.
Go c Defeated the North Ends in a
 Close, Fast Game.

At the armory last night the Go G basketball team defeated the North End Athletic clubs team by the score of 19 to 16. It was one of the fastest, most interesting, most exciting games of the season and throughout the score was very close. Neither team had a decided advantage over the other and consequently a warm contest resulted. It was the third and final game of a series of three between these teams and each wanted the game badly. The rivalry between the players was in tense and they showed it during the game. The play was fast and snappy. There was good passing and good blocking Each player was in fine form and played his prettiest. The score at the end of the first half was 12 to II in favor of the North Ends.
 Connor, Mcfarland and Stein play ed finely for the winners, while Mi chaels and Lavigne did the best work was not up to the standard. He was suffering from a sprained ankle. The lineup of the teams was as follows: Go G. North End A. c. Mcfarland. ..r.f. ......... Egan Connor. .......... .lf.. ..... .M1chaels Lahvlor. ....... e. Reeves Stein. ....l.g.. ........ Brandt Kelly. .............r.g g........ Lavlgne
 The goals were made by the men in the following order: Mcfarland, La vigne. Reeves, Connor, Mcfarland, Lawlor, Michaels, Lavigne. Kelly, Brandt, Lavigne, Connor, Connor, Me Partland. Connor, Reeves, Lavigne, Law1or threw one goal on foul.
 Danaher was referee and Armbrus- ter was umpire.
 The game was witnessed by the larg- est crowd of the season and there was much roofing by supporters of both sides.
 A preliminary game was played be- tween the Go G second team and the second team of the North End Athletic club. It resulted in a victory of II to o for the Go G team. It seemed more like a game of football than basket bali, for much rough work prevailed. A feature of the game was Slavin's not very gentle playing.

 San Francisco March 27-Not since the Jeffries- Fitzsimmon fight in this city last July have the sporting men on the coast been so wrought up over a battle as in the meeting on next Tuesday night between Young Corbett and Terry McGovern for the feather weight championship of the world. The selection of Harry Corbett as referee completes the last detail for the en- counter, and now nothing remains to bring the affair to successful hnisn except for the boys to place themselves in the best possible trim, so that they can settle, without chance for further argument, the long disputed question of superiority between them.
 From the manner in which the prin- cipals have been training there is not the slightest indication other than the contest will be on the level. The re- port that has been going the rounds that the result has been fixed" has greatly annoyed the little fighters, but there is not sporting man here of any note who doubts that when the cham uion and his hated rival face each other in Mechanics pavilion on next Tues day night battle of unusual severity will be witnessed
 The following table of the measure ments of the men shows them to be evenly matched physically:
