Once again, with Jensen in the
box, the Indians caught up their
winning streak. and the way they
shut Tacoma completely out was a
shame, but they certainly needed
the game. Jess Baker pitched the
first three innings for Tacoma and
1t seemed as though every one of
the visitors was going to take a fall
out of him. He is the one Tacoma
blames for the defeat and maybe it
was his fault, for all Spokane's five
scores came in those three innings.
At one dizzy moment during the
swatfest, Nordyke clipped off a
homer that scared something less
than a mile over Kippert's head
and dropped anchor in the farthest
possible fence corner. Jensen was
notified of the serious illness of his
wife just as the game was over and
was compelled to catch the first
train to Spokane.

The life of the newspaper man in A mining camp such as is Bisbee is re heFed Of monOtony and his work made easier by the many stories to be had from the wide experience of the miners and other citizens. as rem hesentatiyes of every nation and men who have practically travelled over the globe are to be found here.

 A telling of similar experiences in Los Angeles cafes with negroes. in which both had taken the same course, after the momentary pause occasioned by surprise and indigna- tion had passed, led to an inquiry as 10 the section of the United States which is called home. Stankey said he was born in the east, partially reared in the west, with ten years of his life spent among the Boers.
 It was not difficult to get Stankey to taking about the Boer war, and to admit that he had a part therein. A number of Boers are in the camp. said Stankey, among them Shift Boss Ellis at the Oliver shaft. Stankey is an American. but he spent two years fighting for the Boers, and remained with them long after many of the Beers themselves had deserted He left Gen. Cronje's army just fifteen hours before that redoubtable fighter surrendered to the English.
 The conversation brought up a number Of interesting poins.
 ''The Boer war began with a total of about 50.000 troops" said the casual acquaintance of the cafe. which dwindled to about 10000 to- ward the close of the war. as deser- tioDs were continuous. The British of 100000 men.
 The English were at first unfamil- far with the country and we had them at great disadvantage. You ask me what was the matter with the Eng fish troops after that tell you there was nothing. As soon as they got their men mounted, and learned something of the country, they fought ike devils and any body who had to face them will tell you the same thing In fact our tactics from that time on were entirely on the guerilla war fare kind, both from the superior numbers of the English, and their superior equipment
 During the last several months of the war the majority of the Boers were shooting the English Enfield rifle. instead of the Mauser with which they started. because they could capture ammunition for the English guns from their transports. The last few months of the war I carried a; carbine captured from British officer It was evidently one which he had had made to order. with fancy stock, ivory sights, etc. I sold it for $40 before coming to this eoun- try from there.
 Not only were the Boers compelled to depend upon the capture of am munit!oa wagons from their enemies, but 1t was largely from them that they secured their very clothes which they wore. Many a time have I seen a detachment of British troops rushed, captured, and the soldiers stripped even to their underclothingF

THEY INJURE CHILDREN.
Ordinary Carthartics and Pills and
Harsh Physic Cause Distress
ing Complaints.

You cannot be over-careflll in the
selection Of medicine for children. On
ly the very gelltlest bowel medicine
should ever be given. Ordinary pills,
cathartics and purgatives are too apt
to do more harm than good. They
cause gripping, nausea and other dis
tressing after-effects that are fire.
quently health destroying and a life
lasting annoyance.
We personally recommend and
guarantee Rexdl Orderlles as the
safest and most dependable remedy
for constipation and associate bowel
disorders. We have such absolute
faith in the supreme virtues Of this
remedy that we sell it on our guaran-
tee Of money back in every instance
where it fails to give entire satisfac-
'tion, and We urge all in need Of such
medicine to try it at our risk.
Rexall Orderlies contain an entire
ly new ingredient which is odorless,
tasteless and colorless. It embraces
all the best qualities of the soothing.
laxative, strengthening and healing
remedial active principles Of the best
known intestinal regulator tonics.
Rexall 0rderlies are extremely
pleasant to take, are particularly
prom pt and agreeable in action, may
be taken at any time, day or night
do not cause diarrhoea, nausea, gri D.
ing, excessive looseness, or other un-
desirable effects. They have a very
natural action upon the glands and
organs with which they come in con-
tact, act as a positive and regulative
tonic upon the relax, dry muscular
coat Of the bowel, remove irritation,
dryness and soreness, overcome weak
ness, and tone and strengthen the
nerves and muscles, and restore the
bowels and associate organs to more
vigorous and healthy activity.
Rexall Orderlies not only cure con-
stipation, but they remove the cause
Of this ailment. They also overcome
the necessity Of constantly taking
laxatives to keep the bowels in nor
NAL condition.
There is really no similar medicine
50 good as Rexall Orderlies, especial
ly for children, aged and delicate per-
sons. They are prepared in tablet
form and in two sizes Of packages;
- tablets. 10c.. and 36 tablets. 25c.
