$1,000, COO Extra for Canal.

The widening of the Panama canal
from 100 to 10 feet will cost our gov
eminent about 100000 additional,
but the change meets the views of our
naval experts as to the likelihood of
building larger battleships in the near
future. Thousands of persons who have
been experimenting with unknown rem
edies in the hope of recovering their
health, have made a change and COM
menced taking Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters. Many of them write us that
the Bitters cured them after all else
had failed. Don't you think it deserves
a trial? 1t is excellent in cases of
sick headache, heartburn, belching,
poor appetite. cramps, diarrhoea, indi-
gestion, dyspepsia, costiveness, bilious
ness, female ills, and malaria, fever
and ague. Insist on having Hostel
ter's, with our private stamp over neck
of bottle. We guarantee it pure.

MCFARLAND ENDS BOXING
Will Not Don Gloves Again Until He
Faces Phil Brock Tomorrow.

Los Angeles, Aug. 6.-Packy Nc
Far!and wound up his boxing work
yesterday, preparatory TO the bout u
tomorrow night with Phil Brock, and
after brisk workout in the South
Vernon gymnasium declared he would
not put on the gloves again until he
faced Brock. SO far as can be learned,
little betting is being done on the
bout. There is some local play, how
ever, on the basis that Mcfarland
will not knock out Brock. The latter's
ability to take punishment is thought
likely to count strongly in his favor.
Judging from the odds offered by
those who have left money at Jeffries'
bar to be covered, Packy will be a l

Manager Jack Tighe arrived from

afternoon for Clinton to take charge
of the champs. Jack is looking well
and says he is feeling fine. Whether
he will himself get into the game, how
ever, depends upon conditions with
the team Though he realizes that he
is taking a hard job in taking hold of

season Tighe is confident he win make
a success and declares he will at least
do his very best to raise the standing

Tighe, in discussing his work with
Holyoke, said that team during the
season was taken over by one man

festivities should be at least as gen

Trouble Between Friends.

Bloomington. H., Aug. Cit was an
even break yesterday, although the
second was protested by Springfield.
Moore and Roger were hit hard in the
first, but the former. kept the hits
scattered. Ovitz went in in the fifth.
In the second, just at the conclusion
of the fourth inning, Umpire McGreevy
walked up to an officer and demanded
the arrest of a spectator who had ap-
piled an offensive epithet to him.
Instantly there was an uproar, and
McGreevy walked away, threatening to
forfeit the game to Springfield, 8 to O.
Springfield took it that way and pack
ed up their bats. Police protection was
given McGreevy, and he resumed his
position on the diamond followed by
the home team. Springfield refused &c
come to bat, but went up town. The
game was then forfeited to Blooming
