Organization Formed.

An organization, called the Burling-
ton Base Ball association, was formed
with officers and directors, to take up
the work of putting the base ball SIT
lation in Burlington on a business
basis. Base ball certificates will be
sold to raise Immediately the amount
Of cash necessary to carry on the
team through the season. These certi-
ficates will be in the shape of re-
GENTS. the value Of which at the end
of the season will be good for pro-
rate distribution of any funds left in
the hands of the treasurer. The asso-
citation is to organize entertainments
and other schemes for raising money,
and it is believed it will be able to Sc
cure sufficient funds to support the
team and to pay back the money paid
in on the certificates. In other words,
all the money paid in on the certlh
Gates to be sold is to be considered
loaned to the association to be paid
back If there are any funds left over
at the end of the season.

ST. VITUS' DANCE
Striking Example Of Its Cure

RECOGNIZED.

The cure of St. yitus' dance by DR..
Williams Pink Pills is striking ex-
ample of the power of tonic acting
through the blood to cure even the most
serious nervous disorders. This power is
due to the fact that the nerves, like every
other part of the body, depend on the
blood for their nourishment and health.
The statement of Carl A. Wagner, OF
No. 504 South Seventh street, Arkansas

power of DR. Williams Pink Pills to cure
this disease and warrants their use in any

That Burlington fans are no quit

when more than four hundred dol

1t was absurd to think that Bur-
lington would fall down in the middle
of baseball season merely because
a matter of 81, 500 was needed to see
the team through the remainder OF

last evening when in well attended
meeting of base ball enthusiasts near
ly $500 were subscribed and a good
deal of it paid over in cash as start.
or to finance the team through the re-
mainder of the season. Manager Geier
was directed to send word to Presi-

evening. The spirit shown at the
meeting last evening was an admir-
able example of the progressive way

There is no .itnention of allowing \
