THE FHEET, OF s.

The immensely OF the sums han

The treasurer OF the United states
and the assistant treasurcrs with
the superintcndcnts of the miuts and
assay Offices, are custodians of the
public funds. They each are rcspon-
sible for every dollar which they
receive, and are accountable for acts
Of their several subordnatos. They
give bonds not only for their own

VITAL VIM is good name for
a Tonic. 1t sounds like a Tonic.
And VITAL VIM is Tonic of
superior sort. 1t is new and has
none of the prestige of old and
tried remedies but the merit is
there and its reputation will grow
with each bottle used.
Try It yourself: Buy a bottle
from your Druggist. We are
spending considerable money to get
your trade-to induce you to buy
the first bottle. Our whole en-
deavor is conferred on selling the
first bottle. Your future patronage
will come unsolicited. VITAL
VIM makes friends easily.
VITAL VIM is not a remedy
for the desperately i'll, nor for incur
able diseases. 1t is tonic only, but
it is the best tonic. Pleasant to
the taste; immediate in its effect.

NELSON TALKING MUCH.

Battling Nelson is at present tell. ing Englishmen that he Is the greatest lightweight in the world. He is play ing a series of theatrical engagements throughout Great Britain and is mak- ing the announcement daily: :. am willing to take on Joe Cans in a fin- ish fight. weighing 133 pounds ring side. with only one weighing time. I will cover any side bet the negro may name and will agree 10 let the winner take all. l will not let Cans dictate terms and will also refuse to fight him during the hot months in Neva- da.- As these terms suit Cans fin every way it remains to he secn whether Nelson repudiates the above statement when he is brought to bay upon his return to this country.

POLO
THE LEADERS
 THRASHED
Hartford Gave New Britain a Terrible Beating = Bridgeport
 Had a Snap Win Wallingford.

Hartford, Jan 28.--A large crowd in Germania hall Saturday night saw New Britain receive its worst defeat of the season, Hartford trimming the leaders, IT to 2. Hartford made twelve goals before the Leadville crowd had look-in and Starkie's men were weary from driving into the cage. Hartford secured four goals in the first period and eight in the second. New Britain made one in the second period. The goals were well split up in the final period as the Hartford team let down. Callahan took all of the rushes and with Fur ner played all around the visiting rush line. Main and O'Hara were power at center and halfback, and Starkie showed up in his old-time form.

POLO WHITES.

New Britain tomorrow night.
 What a beating the leaders got in Hartford Saturday night.
 We have got two good home games this week with New Britain to-mor- rom night and Bridgeport Friday night.
 Sutton has mask of his own that he uses in front of the cage. It is a regulation polo mask too, not the baseball variety worn by some of the goal tenders.
 Wallingford must be getting pretty tired carrying that one victory around for so long a time. Watch that franchise disappear unless there is strengthening over there soon.
 Did New Britain give that game to Hartford to help her along. Per haps Billy Hanna injected some dope into his players so that they might take sleep while Hartford was cag- ing the goals.
 When New Britain, the leaders in the league, come here tomorrow night the Auditorium ought to be packed to the doors. We need the game too and the local players are going after it right from the sound of the whistle.
 John Allen has done good work for the Waterbury team and the man. agement intend to place him with some team before they drop him. Here is good man for Wallingford of New Haven if the really want good men in those places.
 With Frank Sutton in the goal the ball placers will have to be &C., curate to send 1t behind him. Frank had them all on their feet out in Beaver Falls, Ohio, but the manage ment refused to make the salary greater and Frank quit.
