WHY Suffer From Rheumatism?

Why suffer from rheumatism
when one application of Chamber
lain's Pain Balm will relieve the
pain? The quick relief which this
liniment affords makes rest and
sleep possible, and that alone is
worth many times it's cost. Many
who have used it hoping only for
a short relief from suffering have
been happily surprised to find that
after awhile the relief becomes
permanent. Mrs. V. H. Leggett
of Yum Yum, Tenn, U. S. A.,
writes: II am a great sufferer
from rheumatism, all over from
head to foot, and Chamberlaln's
Pain Balm is the only thing that
will relieve the pain" For sale

made by Thompson's Barosma we have
never known in q single instance OF any
return of the disease-even after period
Of number of years.
VIM. L. Maynard, of Centerville. Pa,
for several years suffered a great deal OF
pain in the side and over the hips, caused
by being crushed between the cars. After
doing a little work he would always pass

ties of Thompson's Barosma, Kidney
and Liver Cure and was completely cured,
having had no return of the disease since.

Boyd Smith made a business
trip over through Wetzel county
yesterday and took Miss Cora

Mrs. II. w. Smith received
word yesterday of the death Of
her uncle, Sturg Price, of Des

dead in his room at the Monroe

among our people.
While John Matthews was
walking down the street yester-
day afternoon, accompanied by
his dog Rex, which acts as his
guide. they came near Wer-
necke's store and a fight took
place between Rex and Muggins,
Mr.. Wernecke'S dog, and the re-
suit was that Rex is very badly
crippled, having been prevented
from taking his own part by Mr..
Matthews holding him away from
his offender. This is quite an in
convenience to Mr.. Matthews. as
his dog is very sensible, and has
been taught to lead him to nearly
any place in town by simply tell
ing him where to 90. but he is now
so badly crippled that he will be
disabled for some time. We have
a law here to muzzle all dogs run

WAR ON THE POOL ROOM
DETECTIVES TO GET EVIDENCE
REGARDING ITS METHODS.

Mr.. Allen w. Mallory and Mr.. T. N.
Mohler, who have taken such a deep in
terest in the matter of waging war against
the pool room at Kenilworth, as heretofore
stated in The Star, called on Major Sylves-
ter at police headquarters this morning
and enlisted his aid in the affair. Major
Sylvester would have taken action before
today, he stated. had he been at home. He
has been absent from the city and re-
turned this morning. He realizes that. al
though the alleged gambling place is In
Maryland, the real harm is done to the
people of this city
1t was largely due to the cooperation of
the chief of police that the Virginia gam
bling places were closed. Every time there
has been such places to deal with in this
vicinity Major Sylvester has had his de-
partment lend helping hand. Following
the interview with the two members of the
Kenilworth and Prince George county as
sociations, he arranged to have two OF
the best members of the force secure tes-
timony regarding the methods employed at
the pool room. This evidence will be pro-
cured this afternoon and may be presented
to Judge Merrck and States Attorney
Hampton Magruder at Upper Marlboro To-
morrow 1t is expected by members or
the committee that they will be able 70
see the sheriff tomorrow and explain 10
him just what they think he should DO IN
the matter of raidins the pool room ana
making arrests. Arrangements were also
made by members of the committee 10
visit the pool room this afternoon and OBJ
tain evidence.
Will Fight to Finish.
Mr. Moher said to a Star reporter this
afternoon that he intends to remain IN the
fight until the pool room is closed or he Is
forced to move his family from Prince
George county. He says he has his money
invested in the county and desires to re-
main there, but cannot do SO II the poor
room Is permitted to remain. Since the
opening of the place. he says, his wife ana
children have iefrained from patronlzlhs
the car line. He objects to their having 10
travel in cars crowded with patrons of the
resort, and he knows there are other peo-
pie in the county who feel as he does.
1t Is reported that people interested IN
the pool room are trying to purchase more
property near Kenilworth. A member or
the association at Kenilworth told Star
reporter this morning that he believed they
want to get the control of additional prop
erty in order to get enough residents TO
sign an application for a liquor license
required. Should the making of bets on
the races be held by the courts to be a
violation of law it is presumed the pur-
pose is TO turn the place into a roadhouse
or club.
Members of the committee who are going
to Marlboro tomorrow hope they will ac-
complish something definite and that a
case will reach the court before the close
of this week. They know that Judge Mer-
rick is bitterly opposed to breaking of
all kinds and believe he will reconvene the
grand jury, if necessary, in order to have
the matter fully investigated and an end
put to the business if the method in vogue
is a violation OF the law.
