Dangers ola Cold and How to Avoid
Them

More fatalities have their origin in or re-
suit from a cold than from any other cause.
This fact alone should make people more
careful as there is no danger whatever from
a cold when it is properly treated in the be-
ginning. For many years Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy has been recognized as the
most prompt aud ehectual medicine in use
for this disease. 1t acts on natures plan,
loosens the cough, relieves the lungs, opens
the secretions and aids nature in restoring
the system to healthy condition. Sold by
Feldmeyer Bros. Drug Store.

SIX OF FAMILY SURROGATE.
Mother and Two Boys Escape Fire
Which Burns Home.

Gloversville, N. Y.-Six members
of the family of Solomon Frank,
a glove cutter, the father and
five daughters, were s%uffocated by
smoke when their home was de-
stroyed by fire early Sunday. The
dead are: Solomon Frank, aged 40
years; Sarah, 81; Dora, 10; Rosa, II;
Minnie, IL; Mary, 10.
The father lost his life trying to
a v his children, following the dis
covery of the flames by the mother,
who, with two small sons, made her
escape. The bodies of the victims
we're found by the firemen. The old
est daughter vas to have become a
bride early in December, and Satur-
day night there was a social gather
ing at the home of the family in cele-
bration of the approaching nuptials.
The gathering broke up at IL o'clock
and at 1870, when all had retired, the
fire was discovered. The origin is be-
lieved to have been due to a defective
chimney.

NEWS Of MISSOURI
Cuts Himself to Death.

Springield-James Phillips, a Fris-
co employe, committed suicide in q
woodshed in the rear Of his boarding
house here by severing the arteries
in both wrists with a razor and cut
ting his throat. He died one hour
later. Dependency is said to have
been the cause. Phillips was convict
ed here twenty years ago on the
charge of second-degree murder. and
was given a sentence in the peni-
Tertiary. He went to the home Of
Mrs. William Clarkson in this city
and during a scuf1e she was shot and
killed instantly. Phillips continually
brooded over his deed. Relatives live
at Bolivar and Fairgrove.

THE NATIONAL GAME
GREATEST BASEBALL SEASON
EVER KNOWN ENDED.
TOTAL ATTENDANCE WAS s,lss,s57
American League outdrew the Ma
tional-chleaso Once More Holds
Title Of Champions.

Chicago, m.-The greatest season
ever known has just closed. A
careful compilation of the daily
attendance figures, which have
been kept ever since the American
League expanded East. show that 1907
leads all other baseball years by more
than 100000.
The figures show that the American
and National Leagues drew a grand
total of 6,1SS,5b7 persons. The near
est approach to these figures was in
1904, when $500, 260 persons witnessed
the combined games of the National
and American leagues. These figures
are an increase over last year of 417,-
2GS.
The American League again outdrew
the National, Ban Johnson's ~organiza-
ton showing a total of 1898, 764, while
the Nationals figures show a grand to-
tai of 2,737,793. The American League
drew 100000 more than last year,
while the National League shows a de-
rease of 10000. Last year the Ameri-
cans outdrew the Nationals by 1885,
863; this season the Americans out
drew the Nationals by more than 600,-
900.
This is accounted for by the sensa-
tional race in the American League
from start to finish, while 1t was a
foregone conclusion before the season
was half over that the Chicago Cubs
were the best in the National.
The worlds series N Chicago and
Detroit has Nlssed into history now.
The Detroit Tigers never had a look
in with the National League cham
pions, and once more the worlds title
belongs to this city. In Boston alone
did the American League make a
showing, taking all the games from
the Boston Nationals.
The Chicago Cubs get about $500
apiece, and, thanks to the generosity
of the Tigers owner, who donated
$4,000, Jennings men get about the
same amount.

Water Motor Causes Contest.

Joplin-one of the Jasper county
circuit judges is to be called upon to
determine whether or not the First
Christian church of this city shall be
forced to pay the Joplin Water Co.
for water used in the operation of the
motor for the new pipe organ. A city
ordinance provides that the water
company shall supply water free to
churches, city buildings, etc. The
manager of the water company claims
that when the ordinance was drafted
there We're 70 such things as water
motors in Joplin and that he believes
a test of the case will show that the
