Toward morning they stuck on the
sand again, in wide part of the river,
with dense forests on either bank.
The steamer drifted about and blocked
up narrow channel through which
they were attempting to pass. The
sand came level with the surface of
the water on either hand. The captain
tried in vain all the expedients known
on the Amur; he attempted to lift the
boat around by means of mast
planted at her side in the river; he
sent the anchor up stream and es-
sayed to drag her through bodily by
means of the windlass; he added to
this power the pulling force Of a wood

river, whose long cross bar was

CHAPTER XII.
To the Rescue.

But what would the general do, the
military governor of Irkutsk? For as
everybody knew, he must be at his
post on certain date, and the White
Car would not be apt to take the will
OF God into account. Within two days
the generals intentions were made
manifest, for his orderly arrived with
several long dugouts, each having
mast at the PROV. A rope, fastened at
the stern, was passed through pulley
at the top of the mast and the other
end attached to shaggy horse. The

What ResinoI AccompIlshes Is Truly
Wonderful,

I frequently have patients who are
troubled with skin eruptions, and have
taken occasion to recommend Resinol,
and in some cases the cures have
seemed miraculous, and had I not seen
them both before and after, would
scarcely have believed them true. One
lady told me that she had spent over
$10O in various remedies, and was
cured with one SOC jar of Resinol. It
is truly a wonderful cure for eczema
and other itching troubles.

Demarests high run was TO- made in the

much. Cline put up run of 81 in his
thirty-fifth inning, playing him with ten
points OF the necessary 800, and then his

Neither player showed championship

knocking the latter out in the eighth
round of IL scheduled ten-round bout at
the Armory A. A.
Moore fought solely on the defensive
during the first five rounds. In the sixth
session, by a little strategy Moore
lured Myers to his defeat. At the begin
ming of the round he permitted Myers to
corner him and then gave a pretty ex-
cast aside his shell-like defense and
darted out of the corner, swinging both
hands for the face A hard right caught
Myers on the chin and he sank to the
floor for count of mine. He slowly
resained his feet and Moore sent him to
the mat for another mine" count. this
time with left jolt. When he got up
Myers was foored once more.
In the seventh round Moore scored a
knockdown toward the close of the
round and at the bell Myers was
spraw out on the canvas. The bell
saved him. In the middle of the eighth
round Moore fayed Myers heavily about
the body and the Bostonian dropped to
the floor. He got up cautiously after
taking the full count. and Moore caught
him flush on the chin with a stunning
right. and for the sixth time Myers hit
the floor. Referee F'laherty here inter

After several conferences with Koehler

Bosom that he made bet of $1,000 with
Herman Rosenthal, "a betting commits

day that the University of Virginia had
refused to run in the proposed three
cornered relay match against Swarth-

was too small.
This information put a decided crimp

to do but fall back on the original plan
of pitting Virginia against Cornell. and

money.

University of West Virginia or one of
the northern colleges to hook up with the
speedy Swarthmore quartet
Jack Carpenter, the former Cornell star,

team, says that several of his friends
have written from Cornell to the effect
that the Ithicans have one of the best
