hesitation in lending their influence to
assist in letting the public know of the
merits OF Peruna.
Nearly one-half the people are in some
way affected by catarrh. Therefore 1t
b almost national curse, and It is Of
national import that the people should
know Of Pcruna.
Catarrh is an American disease.
Pcruna is an American remedy.
Catarrh is q result of changeable
climate. Peruna Is result Of long and
careful experimentation.
Catarrb enters the system through the
nerve centers and Affects the mucous
membranes. Peruna enables the nerve
centers to repel and expel the catarrh
from the system.
Catarrh Is a systemic disease and
durable only by systemic treatment.
The remedy that cures catarrh must
aim directly at the depressed nerve
centers. This Is what Peruna does.

TWO TURK MREsrLERs

Within the next few weeks New Workers will have the chance to size up two Turkish wrestlers. They are being imported here by Martin Julian and are known as Nimrod and Timra. Nimrod is . 15S-pounder and claims the middleweight title of TurKey. while Timra is the peer Of the heavy weights. He tips the beam at ISO pounds. Both are said to be excep- tionally strong and clever. The Turks are at present in England. and accord ing to Julian should arrive here by the first of next month. The foreign CTS are equally at home at both catch as-catch-can and Graeco- Roman styles. Nimrod has been wrestling in Paris for some time and made great im- precision in France Timra has been doing excellent work in London. and only lately issued a challenge to meet Georges Hackenschmidt Hacken- schmidt's manager. Cochrane. in a re- cent letter tO Julian said that. while there was no doubt about Timra's abli- ity as e wrestler. the Russian was un- able 10 meet him now. because of the y ar the music halls and fintk it a din cult task tD train for a match. He de clared. though. that later on be would give the Turk a match. provided his showing in this country was favorable
 It was Julian wlo brought NOura- lah to America. and as his judgment is considered very good In this respect the sports think that the two Turks may amount to something. Turkish wrestlers with the exception Of a few have been noted for their strength snd cleverneSs. and most every one who has visited America has done very well Tie only objection in the pasr to some of these Turks was that they were too heavy and too biz- N0u- raIah weighed over 300 pounds and the late Youssuf tipped the beam close to this notch. Nimrod and Timra are just about the correct scale and there are plenty of men here at their weight who would only be foo willing fO take them on. Thas was not the case wiIh Youzzuf and Nouralah. for as soon as they got one msfeh they were com pelled to remain idle because the grap- piers were afraid to tackle them ow- inz to their bulk. Nouraiah- by the war. has 10 intention of returning to America. st least just now Julian says that the Turk is now in Con stsnriuople. wherp he is enxaged iu the WheeluTieht business.

STIR IN BASEBALL.

The Hartford Courant printed the following story Saturday morning:
 There was a mighty stir in base ball circles here yesterday when it N-as learned that Big Chief Bender of the Athletics of Philadelphia WIS here with BIIh Luyster. The report ha,l the fans by the ears and there was a rush to Longs where the athletes were auartered. Some one telephoned out to Bristol that Hartford's famous pitcher and outfielder had the big chief in tow and William ]. Tracy and John E. Kennedy took the first train to Hartford to see what the great Indian pitcher was doing there. When they found that the Bender who was here with Luyster. was only a New Jersey boxer. club swinger, as I.uyster called him. the magnates went to Polls to spend the rest of the afternoon Mr Tracy said he thought that Mfr Durant of Waterbury was out of the race for the franchise in that city.
 "Luyster and William Bender of New Jersey struck town In the morn ing and they will be here some time. Luytser said he might spend the rest of the winter here. He said he un- derstoOd be was to play in right feld for Hartford next season and would not be called upon to pitch. He said that Manager Daly had corralled two Indians to play in the Hartford team and he understoOd be got them frum Connie Mack One ls a first baeeusah and the other is a left handed pitcher He said that while Billy Foxen had been bought by Providence be thought be would be here anotber season and that Hartford woudl have four left handed pitchers-

to be confronted with the task of try ing to run down another grappler who assumes his name. This is just what Fred Beell, the crack Wisconsin wrestler, has to contend with just now. When BeeIl came to New York last spring unheralded and unknown. to meet Tom Jenkins for $1,000 side bet in private, very few sports had any. idea how clever a man he was. After he succeeded in gaining one fall in this affair he had no trouble ir get ting all the matches he wanted. As the general public as yet has no idea what Beell looks like it was not much trouble for another grappl, to take up his name and visit territory where Beell has not yet appeared. The spur ious Beell is said to be in the west af present where he has been meeting all corners. Fortunately for the genuine Beell the fellow who has taken his name has not thus far been beaten. No one knows who he is but Harvey Parker. Beell's manager. is on his track and will try to discover the mans identity is such a thing is pos sible. Beell is now in the east. His last match was with Jem Parr of Eng land whom he defeated in handy fash lon. Beell Is pulling the wires for bout with Frank Gotch and 1t looks as if the latter will have to meet the Wis consin man Parker has posted a for- felt in Buffalo to bind the match and if Gotch Is satisfied to go on with 1t q club in that city will offer the men a gOod-slzed purse. Beell in his first contest in Buffalo. which was with Parr. made a fne impression. and if he succeeds ln landing a bout with Gotch 1t Is safe to predict that be will De the fayOrite in the betting.

HERR WAS A HERO.

Steadily up the line of football prowess is plunging a young, but stall wart Waterbury boy, who in about every game in which he has played this season has done some remarkable work in bis position of right halfback. Eddie Herr Is the lad and Saturday he was the hero of the game in his scoring of the first touchdown against Harvard after being severely tackled and thrown. All the Boston papers speak enthusiastically of the Water bury boys work and the Boston Sun day Herald has a cut of him as he was being pushed over the line by two of his companions for the touch down which went far toward saving the day for Dartmouth. It was at tie fifty yard line that Dartmouth began her work of pushing Harvard back. Slowly, but surely, she was forced down the field. Herr made five yards through right and seven more through the same place getting away from the Harvard tackle. The ball was now on the thirty yard line and both the backs hurled themselves against the Crimson and the twenty yard line was reaches 0ffsfde play put the ball on the fifteen yard line and here is where Herr distinguished himself. He was given the ball for cross buck past Squires and as he shot through he was tackled and fell. He pulled himself together and jumping to his feet was seized by two of his con- rades who were waiting for him and over the line he was forced for the first and only touchdown made oy Dartmouth. Harvard scored six in the first half also and in the second half neither side was able to cross the line and the score remained a tie, 6 to G.

Battling Nelson, who is now on the road with burlesque show, has been telling some good stories on himself. In Detroit the other night, friends of the Battler stood around in the Nor mandie hotel joshing the little cham pion about his rather loud vest. Bat smiled and played with a big cluster of diamonds that held his necktie down.
 "Mebbe you don't know It." he said in reply, but it was vest that start ed me in the fighting game.

THE SPORTING NEWS.

Meriden-New Britain game would have to meet New Haven. Meriden objected to this arid did not put in an appearance Saturday afternoon on Trinity field. The Silver City team claims that the New Hayen-New Brit ain game should be first decided and this seems on the face of things to be a just claim. New Britain has won the cup twice in succession and her chances are bright tbis year as Meri- den has poor aggregation. She thinks since Meriden did not show up Saturday she has just right to the trophy and is going to fight for it. Dissension in the league has been growing for some time and the pres ent muddle is likely to bring about the dissolution of the league It is the only organization of it's kind in the state since the end of the Yale Inter- scholastic league in 1902 when Water bury won the cup for three successive years and captured 1t for good.
