Invigornte the Digestion.

To invigorate the digestion and stimu-
late the torpid liver and bowels there's
nothing so good as that old family remedy,
Brandreth's Pills, which has been in use
for over century. They cleanse the
blood and impart new vigor to the body.
One or two every night for week will
usually be all that Is required. For Con-
stipation or Dyspepsia, one or two taken
every night will in a short time afford
great relief.
Brandreth's Pills are the same fine lax
ative tonic pill your grandparents used
and being purely vegetable are adapted to
every system.
Sold in every drug and medicine store,
either plain or sugar-coated.

Assessed ON $4,000, 900 and Rookie

.
The New York City personal tax iist
was opened for inspection Monday IN the
Office of the tax commission. The esti'
mates of the personal property in the
city of several of the more celebrates
multimillionaires are considerably larger
than last year. Andrew Carnegie heads
the list with a valuation of $o,O0o,o0o;
John ID. Rockefeller comes next with ~
100000. The estate of the late Russali
Sage is rated at 100000. John ID.
Rockefeller, Jr., escapes with paitry
$4,000. Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt, VINO
on the tax list is mentioned as Alice u
Vanderbilt, is rated at full million. The
Russell Sage estate is assessed at Soo,-
O0O, 900 on personal property and real es-
tate and the taxes on it amount to ap-
proximately $735,000.
The commissioners apparently made q
very close inventory of the personal hold
ings of Mrs. Hannah Elias, the negro en-
chantress who figured in the sensational
lawsuit instituted by john X. Platt, the
aged millionaire, for the recovery OF hun
dreds of thousands of dollars. Her per-
sonal estate is valued at $11,9O0.

The White Sox returned from Hutch
inson early this morning after having
taken the Salt Packers down tie line in
two out of three of the games played.
In the early part of the season the Whit =
Sox played well on the road but the last
two trips which were taken with Hur1-
burt as cartain were decidedly disas-
trous. The fact that they took two out
of three from Leavenworth will
strengthen the fans in their loyalty to
the team. Three more trips are to be
taken and if the Champs can do as well
on the other grounds as they did on the
Hutchinson diamond there will be but
little to fear in reaching third place.
Red Davis returned with the team this
morning. He was feeling somewhat
dizzy yet as a result of his severe acct
dent of Monday but it is thought that
he will be able to get in the game again
this afternoon and not later than tc-
morrow anyhow Davis will play If he
possibly can. For the last two weeks
Red has been under the weather but the
fans were unable to detect anything
wrong with his playing. Two or three
hits per game is what he has been pulling
off.
Jack LawIer will join Wichita for the
rest of the season and will take Milan's
place in left field. He left the Convicts
at Oklahoma City yesterday to join the
Jobbers. Cobb will be put in left field
and Norman Price VIII finish the season
in right for the Conviets.

thing about my team that doesn't affect

is the fact that we know where we are
going to finish the season. We aren't
making any gray hairs worrying over

at the close of the season and they
know right now what that will be-"
From now until the end of the sea-
son the locals will have considerable

games. There is also a postponed
game at that place. They will then
come back for three games with
Wichita. These games will be played
in the morning on account of the State
fair in the afternoon. The team will
then go to Oklahoma City for three
games. When they return they will
play three games. with Joplin, which
will close the local season. Joplin has

Detroit News: Three youngsters
have come into the limelight In base
ball this year, more prominently than
any others. They are Jerry Downs
of the Detroit club; Nichols OF Ph1la-

not offer the same chances in the

an extra good man could be secured
for him. The Dutchman is a great
base runner and brainy ball player.
He can field with the best of them.
