for an Appeal.

for an Appeal.
The American Protective Tariff League,
which was convicted Of criminal libel on
the complaint Of Borgfeldt a Co.. importers
of pottery and china. was fined $500 yes
terday by Judge Swami Of General Sessions.
The league was convicted for publishing
in the American Economist an article re-
Aecting on the business methods Of Borg
feldt 4 Co.
John 7. Aldrch, counsel for the league,
announced that the league would appeal.
At the same time he filed forty exceptions
TO the Judges charge to the jury. After
reading over the exceptions Judge Swami
became very angry,
Il object TO misstatement Of facts con-
tanned herein" said Judge Swami. These
misstatements have been injected into
the record for the purpose Of influencing
the judgment Of the Appellate Division
which | understand is TO consider the case
on appeal Throughout the trial the coun-
sci who tried this case injected into the
record great error as to the facts in order
to make a record for appeal
Mr.. Aldrich jumped to his feet and re-
marked that he was partly responsible
for the preparation Of the exceptions,
whereupon Judge Swami said that Lawyer
John s. Wise, who tried the case, was not
present, which he thought was unfair to
the Court Then Mr.. Aldrich asked for
a stay.
III the defendant was an individual
instead Of corporation he would have
to 90 to Jail or comply with the sentence,
said Assistant District Attorney Marshall.
-The thing for Mr. Aldrich 10 do is TO pay
the fine and take an appeal
But no fine was paid. Everybody con-

UNIQUE SERVICE.

The w H Calkins post No 502
met the w. r. C. No. 24S, auxiliary
to the post; held a most interesting
joint meeting in post headquarters at
the 6. of r. hall in this city last
Saturday evening, Oct. II, 1908. The
convocation. or at least a part of the
business engaging the attention of the
joint meeting was in every way out
of the usual on such occasions, indeed,
it is doubtful If its transactions have
ever before had their counterpart in
G. A. r. and w r. C. circles.
One of the good sisters, a member of
the local w. r. c., Mrs. Louis Mohl,
residing at 759 Murz street, this city,
was blessed on March 13. 1903, in the
birth of a baby boy He has proven
to be so fine a specimen of young
America that it has been difficult for
the parents to select a satisfactory
name for the boy, while endeavoring to
settle the matter some one suggest
ed to the proud mother that she bring
him up to the post corps headquar-
ters and have him christened there.
The suggestion was accepted, and the
babe was brought in at this meeting.
The chaplain of the post of the de-
partment of Indiana, Rev. f. NJ. Elliott
was requested to perform the service.
This was done in due form. The cere-
mony was most impressive. The moth

MICROBES IN THE SCALP
The Latest Explanation is
That Microbes Cause
Badness.

Professor Unna of Hamburg, Ger
many, and DIR. Sabourand of Paris,
France, share the honor of having dis
covered the hair microbe.
Badness is not caused through a
few weeks work of these hair mi
crobes, but it the result of conditions
brought about by their presence Bald
ness may not occur until years after
the microbes began work, but it is GER
tain to come sooner or later
The microbes cut off the blood sup
ply. They feed on the fatty matter
about the root of the hair, through
which the blood Is absorbed. Finally
the fattv matter is wholly consumed
the food supply of the hair is gone and
1t starves aid finally dies.
Rescorin is one of the most effective
germ destroyers; Beta Napthol is both
germicidal and antiseptic; Pilocarpin,
though not a dye, restores natural col
or to hair when loss of color was
caused by disease. These curatives
properly mixed with olcohol as slim
ulant. perfect a remedy unequalled for
| curing scalp and hair troubles.
We want every one who has any
scalp or hair troubles to try Rexall
"93" Hair Tonic. which contains al
these ingredients. If it does not
grow hair on your bald head, stop your
hair from falling out; cure you of dan
druff; make your hair thick, silky
luxuriant; If it does not give you com
plete satisfaction in every particular
return the empty bottle to us, and we
shall return every penny you paid US
| for it, without question or formality.
| OF course. you understand that wher
we say that Rexall g. Hair Tonic will
grow hair on bald heads, we do not
refer to cases where the roots are en-
tirely dead the pores of the scalI
closed, and the head has the shiny ap-
pearance of a billiard ball. In cases
! like this. there is no hope. In all 9th.

BOAT RACES ARE
NOT YET DECIDED
Accident in River Event
Prevent Settlement of
Disputed Title.

And nobody won nor did anyone lose
neither was the boat race on the Cal
umet river yesterday declared a tie
Each OF the four boats in the race met
with some accident and obstacle that
eliminated fair test of the speed of
the boats and the ability of the skip
pers. The four boats that were entered
were 'Iona,' owned by Ed Rohde;
Alma, owned by = Giant Hunter;
"Beulah D." owned by George Drackert
and the Arrow" owned by William
Roy and George Lang. Iona" and
Alma" both struck a piling at the
Grasselli bridge and were temporarily
delayed, "Beulah D. owing to the low
water was temporarily stuck in the
mud and the Arrows" battery gave
out. The judges thought 1t best not
to make a decision in such a race and
consequently the course will be gone
over again.
Boats Are Tvventy-FoOters.
The four boats are all twenty two
footers and each of the owners claims
ability to run it. The race of yester-
day was to show the supremacy, but II
not having been a fair test the race
Will bS III again. Ills VIII bc al
ranged as soon as possible as 1t is get
ting late in the season.
Although the racers were handi-
capped 1t was nevertheless a spectacu-
lar race all the way. With the excep-
tion of the Arrow the boats finished
at Hunters Rest almost simultaneous
ly.
The course lay over a distance OF
nearly Is miles, beginning at the Cal
umet avenue bridge and running west
| ward to Camp Kokomo at the Forks
Here the boats turned and retraced the
course going two miles past Clark Sta
| tion to Hunters Rest, where the ladies
of the club had prepared dinner fol
which the loser was to pay.
Water is Too Shallow.
The race began at 9:30 and finished
at about 1870. A thing that added
greatly to the unfairness of the race
was the shallow water in which it was
almost impossible for one boat to pass
another When the race is run ovel
| in the near future it will be a race OF
time and the starting will be so ar.
ranged that no boat will be in the
| others way.
Quite number of the club member:
were out in their own boats to watcl
the race. 1t was an ideal day for tn,
sport and 1t is with many misgivingl
that they see the season draw to ;
