There is more Catarrh in this sec
ton of the country than all other
diseases put together. and until the
last few years was supposed to be In
durable. For a great many years doc,

stantly failing to cure with local treat

MoUNTAINEER LANDS ON DAVID
SONS HUSKY SHERIFF AND
MAKES HIM SPIN.

COOKEVILLE, Tenn, Aug. IA
Sheriff Sam H. Borum of Davidson
county passed through the sensation
of making a few turns through the air
last Sunday afternoon, prompted by
heavy blow from the fist of native
of Macon county. AS result he car
ries bruised and bleeding face,
Sheriff Borum, with his family, has
been spending few days at Red
Boiling Springs, in Macon county. He
has with him son, probably fourteen
or fifteen years Of age. Last Sunday
afternoon the boy was arguing some
matter with a negro boy and became
involved in difficulty. Young Borum
picked up a rock with which to strike
the negro, when a bystander inter-
fered and took the rock from him.
Sheriff Borum was standing nearby
and resented the act, and words
passed between them. Like a fash
the arm of the would-be peacemaker
shot out, striking the big sheriff
sGuarely in the face. He whirled
around, staggered, and it is said
would have failed had he not been
supported by friend.
The correspondent was unable 70
learn the name of the man who struch
Mr.. Borum, but It is said that he was
only twenty or tyenty-one years of
age, nd much smaller in build than

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Aug 16-li

as McCarn's opponent, has stated
positively that he is in no sense can.

IL rendered him.
About three weeks ago an article
appeared in the Memphis News.Scimi.
tar, and was widely copied over the
state, the evident purpose of which
was to boom Mr.. Leas can.
didacy for governor. Or at least it
looked that way to Mr. McCams
friends. On account of the popularity
of Mr.. Lea, and because of his devc
ton to the cause of temperance, he
was at once recognized as formda
BILE candidate. AS owner of the Nash
vile Tennessean he has become
power in state politics and is further
more a politician who is personally
very popular.
That the Memphis article was not
inspired, as at first appeared, is now
certain. Mr.. Lea, when called upon
by mutual friends of himself and Mr.,
McCarn, denied that the article was
inspired in any sense Of the word,
stating that he was ignorant OF the
source from which it sprang and that
he was not a candidate, would not be
come a candidate, and would not ac'
cept the nomination if rendered him,
Mr.. Lea also stated that he would ad-
here strictly to his promise, made to
friends of Mr. McCarn, to support the
latter.
With Mr.. Lea out of the race it now
seems probable that Mr.. Mccain will
be centered on as the statewide can
didate. He is fearless and vigorous
official, and made almost a national
reputation by his prosecution of the
Coopers for the murder of former Sen
ator Carmack He is strong adVo'
cate of law enforcement and through
the Committee of One Hundred has
done much for the suppression Of
crime in Nashville. All advocates OF
law enforcement recognize that II
elected governor Mr.. McCarn will see
that the prohibition laws are enforced
to the letter.
The state-widers are determined TO
nominate candidate who can be de-
pended on to enforce the prohibition
laws, and who will make no conces'
sions to the enemy. The lines are 50
fiercely drawn that it will be impossf
Die for any candidate advocating hall
way measures TIC receive the support
1f either faction of the party.
Mr.. Lea will leave here in a few
days to join his wife and her mother
Mrs. Percy Warner, at COLORADO
Springs, for a months rest and re-
cuperation. His absence from the
state will silence all talk as to MS
being a candidate for the governor

FOR HOLDING DEBATES
Six Institutions Signified Willingness

Plan Rejected.

Augustana, Coe and Lake Forest
colleges seem to be the trio of insti-
tutions that will make up the tri-
angular debating league now under
the process of formation. Augustana
is taking the initiative in the forma-
ton of the league and is conducting
the negotiations. Six colleges in Hi
nois and Iowa signified their willing
ness of becoming members of the
proposed organization.
AT a meetingsof the college league
yesterday afternoon, the various in
situations who returned favorable re-
plies were considered. Coe college
of Cedar Rapids Iowa, and Lake For
est college of Lake Forest, ILL.,. were
decided upon as the best institutions
and invitations were extended to
them to become parties in a perma-
nent league.
Lombard Turned Down.
A proposition from Lombard, col
lege of Galesburg to enter an ora
torical league composed of Lombard
Wheaton and Northwestern UNIVERSE
ty was turned down by the college
league. The proposition was reject
ed principally because of the condi
lions imposed in the invitation. De

BASEBALL RECEIPT

to Team Visiting Here.

Secretary l.. NJ. Casteel of the base
ball club is in possession of an old re
ceipt for money earned in a baseball
game in Rock Island some 25 years
ago. The receipt is from the manager
of the visiting club for $107.40 and is
evidently the visitors share for two
games which were played on April 30
and 80 of the year 1891. The man
ager of the visiting club was J. May
and he signed himself as manager of
the IS. B. B. Co. whatever that may
be.
Some of the old timers in the local
baseball field were consulted about
recall just what the S. B. B. C. stands
for. That was in the days of indie
pendent baseball, however, and it
might have been any one OF the many
teams which were in the field. At any
rate the receipt indicates that baseball
attracted considerable attention even
% years ago. as one clubs share in
two games amounted to over hun.
dred dollars, which is not bad for III
