INTEREST IN BICYCLE ROAD RACE

Amateur cyclists and motor cyclists are looking
forward TO the New Years run of the Associated
Cycling Clubs of New York. There is interest
among the riders this year than heretofore since
this has the approval and sanction OF the Ma
tional Cycling Association. which has assumed
control of road events during the last year This
affords protection to every rider and insures
uniform fair treatment
The event is open to all bcycsts, well as
motor cyclists. The Gerbereux trophy, that has
been competed for by the cyclists for the ten
years, is almost certain to be this year. as
three of the riders tied for it-Bedell. Damman
and Kessler The Oatman motor cyclists trophy is
still anybodys prize, therefore the interest of this
class will be the more intense. Barring unusual
weather conditions the number of contestants will
be greater Lis year than heretofore.

The Press is in receipt of copy
OF Il proposed new national bank

The trouble with the old

issued directly by the government.
The Press theory is that there are
certain purposes for which the
government should be authorized
to issue its ''crcdit notes., to be
backed by a gold standard or sink
ing fund. without in any way in
te~rfcring with the national banks

Yankton Gazette: IAN item in
the Indian appropriation bill now
before Congress, gives to Mrs.
Jane f. Waldron 1880 in pay
ment of a claim. This lady is the
wife of Charles Waldron, son of
one of Dakota's pioneers (now
dead) who settled in Sioux Falls
in 1859, when Charles was quite
young. In 1862 they were driven
out by hostile Indians and then
made a settlement at Yankton,
where the family has resided for
many years. Mrs. Waldron has
an Indian ancestry sufficient to
give her a legal standing with an
nuity Sioux, but in appearance
and department would readily pass
for a pale face"
Mrs. Waldron and family had
their home in Forest City a few
years ago and are still remembered

WHO USES HYoMEIa
The Best People in Astoria, Says 7. +
Laurin-Guaranteed In Catarrhal
Troubles.

No other remedy or medicinal treat
ment has ever been as popular or made
so many remarkable cures in Astoria
as Hyomei.
The best people attest it's curative
virtues. says T. F. Laurin. who are the
local agents. The fair way in which
Hyomei was sold, to refund the money
unless ii gave satisfaction, was the best
proof when it was introduced that 1t
possessed unusual curative powers. T.
+. Laurin took oil the risk OF the treat
ment giving satisfaction. AMI left It to
the purchasers to be the judge.
Later, when Hyomei was used and
recommended by our well-known physi.
clans and business men and their wives
as a treatment that absolutely cured
catarrh. no matter how serious or long
standing, the sales rapidly grew and to-
day there is no other remedy in 7. r.
Laurin's large stock that has such .
large and staple sale.
The first breath Of Hyomei's healing
air kills all catarrhal poison.
Try Hyomei today on 7. F. Laurin's
offer to refund the money if the treat
ment does not give your satisfaction.
and you viii soon become its friend and
recommend it to others. There's nothing
else that gives such quick curative re-
suits in catarrhal conditions.
