Cure.

Do not neglect the, warning symptoms of
weak heart Palpitation, smothering spells,
swelling of feet or ankles, pain in and around
heart; oftentimes affections of the stomach,
lungs, liver, bladder, kidneys, etc, arise from
heart weakness. A weak heart must be
helped. 1t cannot stop 70 rest 1t must be
strengthened and regulated. The blood must
be enriched, the heart nerves strengthened
and the circulation improved by the great
heart and blood tonic, Dr. Miles Heart
Cure. There is positively nothing to equal
this wonderful medicine in its beneficial
influence upon hearts weakened from any
cause.

Racing at Frisco.

San Francisco, Feb. 25.-Several
good things went through at Oak
land and while only two favorites won
many of the books were hit hard. The
81 900 handicap resulted in an easy
victory for Kenilworth. Nigrette was
second and Modicun1, the favorite,
third. 1t rained all day and the track
was muddy. Caesar Young's bravado
cost him several thousand dollars
While all the other bookmakers held
Lord Melbourne at even money for the
fourth race, Caesar Young put him up
at C to s. Some one bet him 81, 900,
when Young remarked facetiously:
''You are taking the worst of it,, rub
bling cut to and putting up to 5.
After he had taken several bets at this
price Young marked up to 5, and
said that bettors were suckers to take
even money and to when to was
staring them in the face Lord Mel
bourne won out in the last jump, much
to the chagrin of Young, whose losses
on the day were variously estimated
from $4,000 to $4,000, half of which he
lost or the Lord Melbourne race.

EIGHT OUT OF THE BROOKLYN
John A. Drake Withdraws High
Chancellor and Ort Wells.

New York, Feb. 25.-Secretary Reh-
berger of the Brooklyn Jockey club
has received four declarations for the
Brooklyn handicap, which closed with
76 entries, making eight in all. Two
of J. A. brakes horses are among the
deelarations-High Chancellor and Ort
Wells, the latter a full brother of Rome
Respass' sensational western colt, Dick
Welles. Drake leaves in Runnels and
Savable, the Futurity winner of 1902;
South TrimbIe and Jocund.
]. w. Schorr declared out Injunction,
leaving him without a representative in
the first of the eastern classics. Schorr
from all indications will hardly race in
the east before the Saratoga meeting.
Injunction is left in the Worlds Fair
handicap and will be especially pointed
for that event. None of the declarations
affects the outlook for the race, as the
horses that figure as contenders with
out exception have been left in. Their
withdrawal will have no effect what
ever on the future.

Racing at New Orleans.

New Orleans, Feb. 25.-Hands Across,
whose best races have been run since
he passed into Sam Hildreth's hands,
suffered decisive defeat in the fourth
race in which he was a strong favor
lite. Miss West and Aggie Lewis were
the other beaten favorites. G. w.
Poole's colt Foresight. here in charge
of George Forbes. has picked up the
procession of Derby favorites one by
one and has come out with flying col
ors. He has beaten Rainland, Floral
King, and Ostrich successfully. The
only blot on his own Derby chances
is a defeat by Redman. The contests
of the 3-year-olds hereabouts have
been somewhat of a song and dance,
but on the point of general results this
selling platter of Poole's must from now
until the day of the race be regarded as
having as much claim to the Crescent
City Derby as any other of the
eligibleS.

SHORT ROUTE SUITS ROOT.
Gardner, However, Says Jack Has
Nothing on Him in Ground Go.

Chicago, Feb. 25.-Close critics of boxing
figure that Jack Root is banking on the
six-round distance in Friday nights Bat
terry D battle with George Gardner. Root,
brought up to the game in the six round
Chicago contests, has ever been past
master of such affairs, and nobody got
much on him in the short limit.
Gardner, outside of a few fights in Chi.
cago and Philadelphia. has had little OF
the six round game. and his mills have
generally been along the 15 to 20 round
schedules. Root, moreover, was certain
" as good or even better than Gardner in
the first six rounds of their three earlier
battles. This pleases Root. and the Boz
hemian crack feels highly confident OF
winning, but Gardner refuses to be wor-
ried.
I've learned something of the six round
game said Gardner yesterday, land
think I can hold my own any old route,
one round to 40 If Root tries to make 1t
a hurry up affair with me, and goes to
collecting points for six round decision,
I'll simply turn in and make Jack think
a hornets nest is after him"
