Hart.Johnson Einht rnninht

San Francisco. Cal, March 28.-Both
Marvin Hart and Jack Johnson are in
fine condition for their fight tonight.
They did little exhibition work yester-
day. but took things easy. Johnson is
confident but he is no surer of victory
than Hart, who believe the negro can't
withstand his heavy blows. Zick
Abrams, Johnson's manager, started
the betting Saturday night by wager
ing $500 against 800 that the colored
man would be the victor, but it is
doubtful if Johnson will be a topheavy

The Re publican printed the story of another dividend which had just been made. Colonel Greene. on receipt of a .ele- gram from the manager of the mine. which, by the way Is situated in So nora, not far from NJ gdalena that he had sent to New York bullion to the amount of more than $IOO,O00. de- clared a dividend Of that amount. This declaration produced an unusual etfect-nothing like it had ever occur red in the history of stock companies. The stockholders, who were expecting nothing at the time, got scared and demanded of Colonel Greene fnfOrma- tOn regarding the source Of the divi- dend. He could only tell them that it was coming from a mine which he himself had not seen for two years and no gold was then in sight. But the stockholders persisted in suspect ing that there was a trick somewhere. In order to satisfy them the colonel had to give up a Pacific trip hitch up his private car and bring a delegation of the stockholders out to see that the gold actually came out of the mine
 So far, it has not been reported that the stockholders are going to kick about this new dividend

HAY FEVER ABOLISHED.
Medical Science Discovers a Cure for This MaIady by Breathina HYomei.

Medical Science Discovers a Cure for
 This Malady by Breathing Hyone.
 Among the important additions made to medical science in recent years, none is more notable than the positive announcement of a cure for hay fever. Exhaustive experiments with HyOmei prove that this treat ment will prevent the attacks of hay fever if used for two or three weeks before the annual appearance of the disease. and it may be relied upon. if used faithfully after the sneezing and other annoying symptoms have ap- peared, to relieve at once and afford 2 permanent cure.
 Stomach dosing canot cure hay fe- yer. A change of climate is the only treatment that gives any relief, and Hyomei. which medicates the air you breathe. acts upon this principle, giv- ing in your own home a climate as healthy as that of the White noun tains or other health resorts.
 The complete Hyomei outfit costs but T, extra bottles, 50 cents H. Goodman has seen the good effects following the use of Hyomei in so many cases of hay fever that he is willing to sell the treatment with the understanding that if it does not give satisfaction the money vii be refund ed to you.
