Rector Of st. Luke's.
Ashburnharn, Ontario, Testifies to the
Good Qualities of Chamberlain's
Couch Remedy.

Cough Remedy.
Ashburnham, Oot., April, 18. 1903.
Il think it is only right that [
should tell you what a wonderful
effect Chamberlain Remedy has
produced. The day before Easter I
was so distressed with a cold and
cough that I did not think to be able
to take any duties the next day, as
my voice was almost choked by the
cough. The same day I received an
order from you for a bottle of your
Cough Remedy. I at once procured
a sample bottle, and took about three
doses of the medicine. TO my great
relief the cough and cold had COM
pletly disappeared and I was able to
preach three times on Easter Day. I
know that this rapid and effective
cure was due to your Cough Remedy.
I make this testimonial without SOL
icitation being Thankful! 70 have found
such a Godsent remedy. Respect
fully yours,
E a. Langfeldt, NJ. A,
Rector of St Luke's Church.
To Chamberlain Medicine Co.
This remedy is for sale by The
Kaufman Drug Co.

To Buy A Volcano.
New York-capitalists Purchase
Mount Popocatepetl.

Mexico City, August 26.-lhe
sudden rise in the price OF silver
with a corresponding drop in ex-
change has given much impetus to
the remittance of funds by mer-
chants to settle debts abroad. While
it is thought silver will remain dur
ing the rest of the year at a reason
ably high level, it is not thought
that the present high price is per-
manent. New York capitalists
who propose buying the Popocate-
petl volcano for the purpose OF sui
phur mining will have to make
deposit of $4,000 gold before Sep
TENDER 80 to General Sanchez
Ochoa, owner of the volcano, to
bind the bargain. He will as a
part OF the purchase price receive
100000 shares in the company. it
is projected to build a railroad up
the mountain for tourists and for
the transportation of sulphur, and
also for a hotel at the summit,
some $4,000 feet above the sea
level. Power for operating the
railway and sulphur mining plant
will be generated on the contig-
uous volcano of Iztaccihuati, where
the company is acquiring water
rights.

A ruling that is of vital import
ance to Texas cattlemen, has Just
been made by NJ c. Campbell,
chairman of the Kansas sanitary
board, which admits Texas cattle
into and through Kansas on gov

Kansas board prevented Texas cat
tie from entering that state, even
when carrying a clean government
certificate Of health without first
being inspected by the Kansas ms
pectors. While every cattle state

General Fred Grant
Popular At Austin

Austin Statesman:
General Grant left Yesterday for
his post at Fort sam Houston after
spending two days at Camp Mabry.
The visit was but the confirmation
of the splendid impression the gen.
eral has made upon the people of
Texas. His genial bearing toward
all with whom he has come in
contact has served as a magnetic
bond with which he has drawn to
him the admiration and friendship
of every one who met him.
Mrs. Grant, too, was most char
ming, though perhaps she is not to
be particularly credited with this,
as it is so natural to her that il
seemed simply Il part of herself.
She is Il Southerner by birth, and
hence TO the manor born, and she
fascinated all who fell under her
smile. Lieutenant Ulysses S. Grant,
the son, a manly young fellow, is
yet simple and unaffected, and adj
ded so much to the personal at
tracti .eness of the family that it is
doubtful if a more democratic and
delightful family circle ever paid
the capital of Texas visit.
Captain Dapray of General
Grants personal staff, has made
most happy impression upon all |
the officers of the guard. as well as
upon the citizens whom he has met. /
Indeed, under the kindly interest
shown by him and his chief there
has sprung up sentiment of re-
gard and friendly feeling for the
army that has heretofore been
unknown in Texas.
This same spirit pervades the
entire personnel Of the details made
from the regular army hy General
Grant to ~this camp. There is a
5ood-comradeship existing between
he State and regular soldiers, both

LEAGUE WRITES ITS OPINIONS

The trustees OF the Baseball League
have submitted the following written
decisions in the appeals of the Male
lima and Elks teams which were de.
cided on at a meeting held the other
day:
Honolulu. Aug. 10Th, 1908.
Lorrin A. Andrews. Esq, Secretary Ho-
nolulu Baseball League, Honolulu.
Strive hereby acknowledge the
receipt of your communication Of the
18th inst, enclosing the protest and
appeal OF the Elks Club against a decl-
sion made by Umpire Lemon in the
course OF the league game played be-
tween the Honolulu Athletic Club and
the Elks Club on August sth, 1908.
The only ground Of the protest and
appeal is that Umpire Lemon ruled
that knight OF the Elks team was out
at the home plate, because Moore OF
the Elks team interfered with Catcher
Leslie OF the II. A. C.'s team, as
Knight was running home from third
base; the contention being that al
though Moore did illegally interfere
with Catcher Leslie and thereby en-
abled knight to get safely home. the
rules prescribe that the punishment
for such illegal conduct on the part Of
Moore should be fine or suspension oil
Moore and do not prescribe as penal
IL that the runner who made his base
through the assistance-of such Illegal
interference should be declared out.
ihe facts involved in this case are
undisputed. They are as follows:
The Elks were at bat with two men
out;
Knight of the Elks was on second
base;
Cunha of the Elks made two-base
hit. going to second;
Knight attempted to run home from
second;
Moore of the Elks was coaching
from the coacher's position at third
base;
As Knight left third base Moore left
the coacher's position and ran down
the line from third base to home. close
to the line and little ahead OF
Knight;
Catcher Leslie OF the II. A. C.'s was
standing just back and little to the
left of home plate;
The ball was thrown from center
field to home, and just as Catcher Les
lie was about to catch II. Moore ran
into him, knocking him to the ground,
and Knight made his home.
On behalf Of the Elks It is claimed
that the ball was too slow and that
knight would have made his home
anyhow, had Moore not interfered.
On this point the umpire's evidence
was that he was unable to say whether
Knight would have made his home OF
whether Leslie would have caught the
ball In time to put Knight out,
The umpire ruled that Knight was
out. which put the side out.

Lorrin A. Andrews, Esq, Secretary
Honolulu Baseball League, Homo
lulu.
Dear Sir:-The Trustees OF the Ho-
nolulu Baseball League hereby ac-
knowledge the receipt OF your COM
munication OF the lith inst, enclosing
the protest and appeal OF the Male
lima Club against the forfeiture by
Umpire George A. Bowers on the Both
day OF May, 1903, OF the game between
the Punahou Club and the Male lima
Club.
In reply / would say that the Trus.
tees have duly considered the said pro-
test and appeal and their decision 10
as follows:
The sole ground on which the pro-
test is based is that on the goth day OF
May. 1908. there being as usual two
games scheduled, one at 1880 o'clock
and the other at $3.50 o'clock, one OF
the teams scheduled 10 play at 1880
o'clock not appearing the game was
forfeited to the team that did appear
at 1880.
The Punahous and the Males were
scheduled to play at $3.50 O'Clock. but
the 1880 game having been forfeited
the umpire instead OF waiting until
$3.50 o'clock proceeded after a ten
minute interval to call the second
game, and, the Males not then appear
Ing for Ave minutes he declared the
second game forfeited.
The Males now claim that the UNI
pire should have waited until $3.50
o'clock before calling the second
game.
II the foregoing was all there was
to the case the Trustees would be con-
strained to find in favor OF the protest
but It is common knowledge to all the
clubs OF the League and to the Trus-
tees that at a meeting OF the League.
at which both the clubs and the Trus-
tees were present, held on May Goth.
1903. II was formally and officially an
nounced in open meeting by the rep
resentatives OF both the Elks and the
Males that they would not and could
not play on May Both. and that they
