This tender nerve Is only one OF great system
OF nerves. This system controls not only the

called this great nerve system the Inside
Nerves. They are not the nerves Of feeling
not the nerves that enable you to walk, to talk,
to act, to think. They are the master nerves
and every vital organ is their slave The COM

The one remedy which aims to treat not the

cot had a charge preferred against him
and was considered model officer.

able condition of the department the
Board invited any one who had COM

played good ball. The Skeeters did not
make an error and the Orioles made bur
one error. Manager-player Jennings,
who was playing at short. was put off
the field after a heated argument with
Umpire kerins early in the game. The
game was delayed forty minutes by
heavy downfall of rain in the third in

inning. In the fifth they scored twice.
That's as far as they got. Meanwhile

scratch. The other two in the fourth

er by Monsgnor John H. Fox, of this

the temperance question. The Rev. DR..
Griffin, of the cathedral. also spoke.
The convention decided to divide the
state organization into two bodies, each
having headquarters in their own diocese.
The societies in this district will com
prise the II of the 21 counties in the
Trenton diocese. They will. therefore,
be under the supervision of Bishop Nc
Faul, and the seven other counties in the
Newark diocese will be under the super
vision of Bishop O'Cononr, of the New
ark diocese

the organization in closer touch with the

of either bishop. The. organization will
now be known as the Total Abstinence

Frederick scheibe is no longer mem
Der of the police force. He was uncer-
moniously bounced last night by the
Board of Police Commissioners. Scheibe
had no chance of getting away. The
Police Commissioners figured that he
was lucky to beat it in the courts.
Scheibe was charged with receiving prop
erty that had been stolen from the Penn
sylyvania Railroad freight car. He was
indicted and the reason he was acquitted
was that the principal witnesses against
him had left town.
