Five Years
Of Heart Trouble Cured by
DR.. Miles Heart Remedy

Before l began taking DR..
Miles Heart Remedy l had been
suffering from heart trouble for
over five years. / had pains in
my left side, and under my
shoulder blade, could not sleep
on the left side, andwas SO short
of breath the least exertion
would bring on the most distress
ing palpitation. | had scarcely
taken. a half bottle of the Heart
Remedy before i could see a
marked change in my condition.
When / had taken six bottles /
was cured" ~. H..
MRS. &C. GORKEY,
Mortified, Va
If there is futtering or palpi-
tation it is an indication of a
weakness of the nerves and MUS
cles of the heart. 1t is not neces-
sarily diseased-iust weak. from
>over-work: The heart may be
weak just the same as the eyes,
stomach or other organs. You
can make a weak heart strong
by taking DR.. Miles Heart Rem
edy. Get a bottle from your
druggist, take it according to di-
rections, and if it does not bene-
fit he will return your money.

whether the Hawaiian lad keeps his
appointment or not, but he states very
positively that, should Wahilani not
box at the Orpheum, as he has agreed
to do. there will be no boxing on the
night of July "a t'The first principle
of warfare, said Joe sis, if you can,
not hold the fort, blow it up, even If
you get blown up with it and every
man with piece of heart in him will
do it, The boxing can be stopped.
Jack Seully requested last night that
the following statement from him be
published:
81 wish to deny in toto the statement
of Jacob Tavares, known as Young Mel
son, which appeared this morning and
in which my name was mentioned
Gin the first place, it is absurd on
the face of it to suppose that boxer
of Young Nelson s caliber could, by
any stretch of the imagination, be
worth 5000 to any promoter of boxing
bouts, even if he had contracted to box
dozen different men instead of two.
81 promised Young Nelson lump
sum of 800 to box Rafferty, and Dixon
and not only kept my world with him
but threw in a fifteen dollar bonus.
cit is strange that Young Nelson
should have reserved his roar till this
late date. and it would be interesting
if you could print the exact cireum'
stances which have caused him to stir
up an already settled matter, evidently
with the idea of diserediting myself.
! Yours, JACK SCULLY.

RAPID TRANSIT
IS GENEROUS

The big league will probably start
up again at the old grounds in the near
future. The Rapid Transit people have
made very generous offer which will
enable the league to get together and
start under new and propitious condi-
tions.
The street car people have agreed TO
remit all back rent due for the grounds,
to cancel the present lease, which calls
for rental OF $25 month and to
donate the sum of $4,000 which will be
just sufficient to pay off the indebted
ness of the different teams and the
league and cover the sum which the
trustees are out on the proposition.
Then the Rapid Transit people are
willing to make new lease of the
grounds either for the old league or
new organization, under easier con.
ditions of rent.
Nothing has as yet been done by
the league in reply to this very gener
Gus proposition but the managers of
the different teams will get together
as soon as Frank Thompson gets back
from Hawaii sand it looks very much
as though the big league would have
snort and snappy season OF live ball
out at the good old diamond. where so
many hard fought battles have been
won and lost.
This will be good news for a certain
section of the fans. should the happy
consummation be reached. There are
many baseball enthusiasts who are glad
to take their women folk out to the
old grounds to watch snappy game
OF ball, but do not care particularly
about the polyglot environments Of
Aala Park or the new athletic park.
1t is to this class of fans that the
league grounds appeal and renewal
of the baseball game out there will
be about one of the best things that
could happen for Honolulu. The Rapid
Transit people have been generous,
now let the live ones make noise.

SCULLy HUI Is
CHASING COHEN
Underhanded Methods Are Used
by the Rival Boxing
Promoters.

The boxing situation came to de-
cided head yesterday afternoon when
Joe Cohen signed up Wahilani definite
" and Jack Scully announced that
Wahilani would appear for him and not
for Joe Cohen.
The following is a statement signed
by Wahilani at the Ironworks yester-
day at noon, in the presence of Joe
Cohen and several other responsible
parties.
81 see by this mornings Advertiser
that Jack Seully claims to have me
matched to box for him at the Star
Theater as preliminary to his main
event
81 take this means to state that Mr..
Scully tried to get me to break my
contract with Mr.. Cohen, but | refused
to do so.
81 shall box Mccullough at the
Orpheum as per my agreement with
Mr.. Cohen all reports to the contrary
Notwithstanding.
g (Signed1 JOHN WAHILANI. -
This signed statement seems con-
elusive enough, but seully produces an
equally conclusive argument and it is
hard to say what Wahilani means to do.
Either he is simple and does not know
his own mind or he is trying to play
the two promoters against each other.
He was supposed to be at the
