BEATS THE BATHS
Flint Mich., Rheumatic Cure AT.
tracts from Mt Clements. Fuss
Has Made a Splendid Record In
an Exceedingly Short
Time.

Flint, Mich, is becoming famous as
the home city Of a new cure for
rheumatism which has been used
with such success as to attract at
tention from all over the country
The new medicine is called Fuss.
T. G. Millard, manufacturer OF the
remedy, when seen at his residence
525 Harrison street, Flint, Mich, ad-
mitted that the new cure had made a
great record in a short time.
1--WE have had patients come here
from Mt, Clemens and other cities
where they had failed to get relief
he said, and the medicine has cured
them. Fuss goes to the root Of the
disease. Il operates upon every por-
ton Of the body. It dissolves and
eliminates the poison from the sys-
tenn; II invigorates the muscles, and
llmbers the stiffened joints. 1t acts
upon the liver and kidneys, remov-
ing from them all irritants, restor-
ing them to perfect health and regu-
larity."
Among the large number Of testi-
monlals, Mr.. Millard exhibited the
following; c. X Herndon, Maryville,

They Still Served the 81. s,uos.r Altar

One of the oldest ana most eccentric
characters baseball mas ever produced
was old Pete Browning, the famous
sugger, who played with Louisville
around The eighties and later Joined
the cleveland club in 1870 during the
Brotherhood war.
Pete was little Off In his roof gar
den and had only one idea in his head
day or night. Anything that concern
ed his precious batting average was
meat aud drink to him. 1t made no
difference how many fly balls he drop
ped or let get by him as long as he
landed two or three safe ones during
game.
Bats were mania with Browning,
and whenever he could pick up a club
which suited him 1t was added to his
enormous collection. So many were
gathered at various points on some of
his trips that he sometimes was forced
to pay excess baggage on the prizes.
According to Van Haltren, 1t was
Browning who INTRODUCED the habit Of
rubbing down bat win tobacco Juice,
which custom is followed to this day
by many Of the players. The idea is
TO roughen the surface of the stick
and prevent so many fouls slipping Off
one side or the other.
Browning, who was a great user Of
the weed, used to polish down his
sticks In this way without any appar-
ent reason until he commenced to be

hitting, and after that no wagon tongue
of his ever escaped coating OF the OBJ.

Other players took it up in the hope
of emulating Browning, and now it is
common custom throughout the coun-

When Pete retired from the game

were still in his possession. In order
to keep them always in his sight Pete
had them turned down to a uniform

A BIT OF NAVAL HISTORY.
Origin of tho Corps of Professors Of
Mathematics.

Sr's'n OF tns corps OF Professors OF
Mathematics.
Before the Naval academy was es.
tablished midshipmen received their
education entirely on board ship. Their
technical education was obtained in
the school OF experience. helped out
occasionally by the voluntary efforts
or the older line officers. Their gen
eral education was at first neglected,
but later instructors were appointed
for service on ships that carried mid
shipmen. These were appointed by
the secretary of the navy for stated
periods, much as civilian instructors
at the Naval academy are appointed
at the present time In 1912 q general
order was issued providing that they
should live and mess with lieutenants.
They We're commissioned In 1S4S, but
specific rank was not given them until
the general reorganization OF all stan
corps during the civil war.
The late Professor II. H. Lockwood.
q. 5. N, in some very interesting rem
iniscences read before the Naval
Academy Graduates association In
1898 relates how the corps of profess
sors of mathematics came to be form
ed. In the early days of the Naval
academy he was one of its instructors.
He had had service in the army, and
in the development Of the course of In
struction he determined, after consul
tation with the superintendent, to give
the midshipmen little infantry drill.
This did not suit the proud spirits of
the young gentlemen of that day, and
to show their disapproval of this and
other efforts of the professor they hung
him in effigy. An Investigation and a
court martial followed on the charge
of insulting superior officer.
The defense put up the plea that the
instructor was not superior officer.
Such condition is hard to understand
at this time, when the status of off,
GERS, instructors and midshipmen at
the Naval academy is well defined, but
ut that time midshipmen were officers,
while instructors had no official stand
ing. The plea was technically correct,
and to punish the guilty midshipmen 1t
was found necessary TO substitute
charges in which the anomalous posi-.
ton of the professor in the naval serv-
ice could not be made to enter. Upon
these the guilty midshipmen were con-
demned and punished.
This incident led to an amendment
in the naval appropriation bill of 184S
giving authority for the commissioning
of twelve professors of mathematics
