by the score of to 0. 1t was a great
game. Only three errors and five hits
were secured by each team. Hitting
at the psychological moments ushered
in Abilene's scores. CAPTAIN Nc
Donell and his trusty south paw as
usual put the visitors into hypnotic
sleep.
Mortified was the pill smasher
for Abilene yesterday. He secured
two hits out of the five and one of
them materialized two scores. He
also was in great form behind the
counting pan. The infield gobbled up
all that came Its way. The outfield
again did not have a chance.
The game yesterday was certainly
a recreation to the fans who were
loyal and true blue supporters and.
came out to the game. This exhi-
bition of baseball deserved ten times

ance.

Hirh Pressure DAYS.

Men and women alike have to work
necessarily with brain and hand to
hold their own nowadays, Never were
the demands of business, the wants
OF the family, the requirements of
society, more numerous. The first
effect of the praiseworthy effort to
keep up with all these things is COM
monty seen in a weakened or debili-
tated condition of the nervous system,
which results In dyspepsia, defective
nutrition of both body and brain, and
in extreme cases in complete nervous
prouratOn. II is clearly seen that
what is needed is what will sustain
the system, give vigor and tone TO the
nerves, and Keep the digestive and
assimilative functions healthy and
active From personal knowl9ige we
can recomfend Hoods Sarsaparilla
TO rthis purpose. 1t acts on all the
vital organs, builds up the whole sys-
TEN, and fits men and women for
these high pressure days. 14w9d
