A Remarkable Plea
 For the Stomach
If Your Stomach Is Lacking In Digest I've Power, Why Not Let the Stom- ach Do Its Work-Especialy When It Costs Nothing
 To Try?

Not with drugs, but with a reinforce ment of digestive agents, such as are naturally at work in the stomach? Scien quires pepsin. nitrogenous ferments, and the secretion of hydrochlorlc acid. When your food fails to digest, it is proof posi- tive that some of these agents are lacking in your digestive apparatus.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets contain noth- ing but these natural clements necessary to digestion and when placed at work in the weak stomach and small intestines, supply what these organs need. They stimulate the gastric glands and gradually bring the digestive organs back to their normal condition.
 Stuart's Digestive Tablets have been subjected to critical chemical tests at home and abroad and are found to con tain nothing but natural digestives.

Reports From Swamps and River Bot tom Plantations Say That All
 Crops Are Under Water.

Tuscaloosa, October 2.-(SpeciaD The river reached a height of 4S.7 feet. and then began to recede. The government gauge showed AS yesterday afternoon at o'clock, and at that time no news of a heavy rainfall had reached the gov ernment engineers office.
 All reports from the "swamps" and river bottom plantations are to the effect that all crops are under water. At some points the river is five miles wide. A great deal of the cotton and almost all of the corn is destroyed, and the river planter is seeing all of his years work ruined.

that the worlds series this season will be of great deal more interest than last year, when Mathewson had a walk-over over Philadelphia. The Chicago nationals will probably defeat the Chicago White Sox, but it is evident that the first named will have to hustle from the word go. As the games will all be played in Chi cago, 1t is a certainty that baseball will have had never before such a regular and enormous attendance throughout a week. After the conclusion of the sea- son, the players will blow for about seven days. and immediately afterwards get ready for the big fray.
 Unless the New York Hlghlanders can finish second in the American league race, it is hardly probable that the series of second honor holders will be played. New York and Cleveland would hardly alp well. It is hardly probable that the series between the two will be played for the championship of New York city and state. in spite of the fact that there has been considerable talk to that eff. feet

Three Barons Left.

All Barons have taken themselves to other climes with the exception of Harry Matthews, backstop, Henry Meeks, first baseman, and Gladys" Molesworth, cen terfelder These three of the pennant winners often meet on street corners and indulge in "reminiscences, and sometimes the fans gather about them, and interest in the game which has somewhat Jagged is again famed into glowing coals.
 Meelks has opened a bowling alley above the Apollo billiard parlor, and his resort is a popular one. He is very anxious to arrange a tournament between several southern cities the results being carried from one point to the other Immediately after each shot. The scheme has been tried before with success, and It IS very probable that such a tournament will be arranged this winter.

LIebhardt's Record.

Every Southern league fan Is proud of the great record made by Glenn Tieb- hardt. late of Memphis. yesterday. Lieb- hardt pitching for Cleveland. not only de- feated Detroit, but held the heavy hitters down to three blngles. Hurrah for the Southern league Iron man!
 Since the close of the Southern league, three pitchers who performed in this com pany have worked out among the Majors. Maxwell late of Montgomery, tried his hand for several innings only with Pitts burg, and was removed. Thomas Hughes, the leader of the league, late of At lanta, pitched two innings for the New York Highlanders against St, Louis, and failed to make a great impression. he too, being removed, and the game going to the other fellows. Sallee, drafted by the Highlanders from Birmingham, has not yet made bow before the big com pany.
 Liebhardt has appeared, however, and of all the Southern league twirlers he alone has made good. The Southern league fans are glad.

TALK OF NEW CLUB HOUSE.
Calhoun Club of Anniston Holds An
 nuaI Election.

Anniston. October 2.-(SpecaD.- the annual meeting of the Calhoun club last night. the matter of either building a new club house or enlarging the clubs present quarters to adequate proportions was taken under advisement, and was finally placed in the hands of the govern ing committee who will give the matter due considera ton. The proposition to build a modern club house, from what can be learned, received less support than did the other to have present quar- ters enlarged by building over Caldwelfs s store and the office of the Postal Tele- graph company. This latter scheme would furnish additional space to the amount of 1S0 square feet, or a room 30 by 60 feet, which was regarded as ample for present needs.
 In the annual election of officers, which occurred during the business session of the club, the following were elected: President, w H. McI<leroy vice-presi- dent, H. A. McCord: secre'sr o. H. Parker. The governing committee was named as follows: James Keith. Jr.. Henry D. McCarty. Howard w. sexton, Charles R. Parker and Dr. l.. M. Winn-

Food For Winter Fans

This week will bring the end of the baseball throughout the entire country. The defeat of New York yesterday, and the lead of Chicago, removes practically all doubt as to the outcome of the race In the American league. As predicted some time ago, two pennants will fly from Chicago at the conclusion of the season. It begins to look as if New York has a cinch on second place in the Ma tional league, while New York Highland CTS will have 10 scrap for second rank in the American. The Cleveland team Is playing great ball just at present, and there are great many who feel confident that the Vinded New York pitchers can not overcome the lead that the Blue Birds have gained

VOTE ON HOG QUESTION.
Oxford Will Hold a Special Election
 to Decide This Matter.

Anniston, October 2-(Spccial)-At the meeting of the Oxford council last night, in addition to the transaction of regular business an ordinance was passed which allows the electric cars to run at speed of 12 miles per hour through the city limits instead of 6.
 IL was also decided to leave the ques- ton of whether the hog ordinance shall be repealed or not to the vote of the citizens and to that end an election has ben ordered for Monday, October b. The hog question gives rise to many discus sions on the streets. The hog ordinance was passed some time ago and forbids the keeping of a hog within the city limits. It was passed on account of the alleged unhealthy conditions attached to hogpens and their occupants.

 Second Mob Goes to Jail.
 Shortly after 10 o'clock tonight a second mob gathered in the business section of the city and went to the jail convinced that Robinson was in there and express ing themselves as bound to have him at any cost Sheriff Powers declared to this crowd as he had to the first one that Robinson was not in the jail and had not been there. The mob demanded that they be allowed to send men through to make an examination. and this was permitted by the sheriff. Eight men entered the jail and after an inspection came out and in- formed the crowd that the man was not in there. The announcement was received with incredulity and there was demands that the negro be brought out at once.
 Captain Lumsden Pleads for Order.
 The temper of the crowd was growing extremely ugly when Capt Frank Lums- den mounted a cart and addressing the crowd said:
 'I have been a Confederate soldier, and I fought against the negroes for four years. I give you my word that the man is not in there. and if he had been there

Assessment Completed.

The selectmen have completed the
work of assessing the taxes for the year
of 1906 and the books will very soon be
in the hands of the collector, r. P. Pen
nell. The more important items devel-
oped by the assessment are given below,

ing figures for 1905 that they may be
conveniently compared.

Ii should be borne In mind that the
total amount raised in 1905, given above
as S72,642, was raised in part by the
town ana 10 part by the Skowhegan
Village Corporation. The figures given
are the sum of both assessments and are
comparable with the total amount raised
IN 1906, $40, sos, which is now raised by
one assessment on the whole town as
the Village Corporation has been abol-
ished. The same considerations apply
in comparison of the tax rate for the
two years. The rate for the town of
Skowhegan in 1905 was SIC 20 To this
was added, on all property within the
Corporation limits, the Corporation as
sessment of 81 10 on the thousand, max
ing a total of $40 80. This year the one
rate on all the property ia the town is
$40, which is 80 cents per thousand less
than the sum of the town and corpora
ton, last year.
The most gratifying thing in connec-
ton with the above figures is the net ill.,
crease in taxable property amounting to
