ENDS INDIGESTION
IN A FEW MOMENTS
Gas, Heartburn, Headache, Sourness and
All Stomach Misery Ended with
Pape's Diapepsin.

Nothing will remain undigested or sour
on your stomach if YOU will take a little
Diapepsin occa sionally. This powerful
digestive and antacid, though as harm
less and pleasant as candy, will digest
and prepare for assimilation into the
blood all the food you can eat.
Eat what your stomach Graves, with
out the slightest fear of indigestion or
that you will be bothered with sour ris-
ings, belching, gas on stomach, heart
burn, headaches from stomach, nausea,
bad breath, water brash or a feeling like
you had swallowed lump of lead, or
other dissgreable miseries. Should you
be suffering now from any stomach dis
order you can get relief within five min
utes
If you will get from your pharmacists
a 50-cent case of Pape's Diapepsin you
could always go to the table with a
hearty appetite, and your meals would
taste good. because you would know
there would be no Indigestion or Sleep
less nights or headache or stomach mis-
cry all the next day; and, besides, you
would not need laxatives or liver pills
to keep your stomach and bowels clean
and fresh.
Pape's Diapepsin can be obtained from
your druggist, and contains more than
sufficient to thoroughly cure the worst
case of indigestion or dyspepsia. There
is nothing better for gas on the stomach
or sour odors from the stomach or to
cure stomach headache.

Good Marks Were Also Set in Five New
Events at Gymnasium Yesterday Aft

Was Brought Out
ONE RECORD WAS EQUALLED

Three records broken five records in
new events established, and one record
equalled was the result OF the first in
door meet that Goddard has held since
1908. The meet was held in the seminary
gymnasium yesterday afternoon, before
fair-sized gathering of students and
other lovers of this branch OF athletics,
who were DESTROYS of getting line on
the seminary athletes. The records that
the seminary lads showed onto the shelf
were the l6-pound shot put, fence vault,
and the running broad jump.
Sherburne, the captain Of this years
team and who carried off honors at the
interscholastic meet at Burlington last
spring, smashed the first two, with Gut
ting doing the honors in the running
broad jump. LeBarron, winning the bali
mile, senior, and Whtcomb, taking first
in the junior $50 event, both established
records. "Pinkie" Cayhue also sets a
new record for the 440 indoor run. lie.
Barron, with another first in the mile
run, establishes record for this event
This is the first time in the history of
the school that distance runs have been
tried in competitive matches. Consider
ing the small size of the hall, the marks
made by the runners are remarkable.
The seminary possesses some excellent
material in this line.

have been diligently pursuing prescribed
courses of training for the past three
weeks, whereby their efficiency might be
brought to the surface, were out in togs
and were divided into two teams. and

The squad which is daily being trained
under the watchful eye of Leland Stacy,
q graduate of st. Lawrence university
and who had charge of last years inter-
scholastic championship track team, is
strong in every event and should dupli-
cate the achievement of last year by
again winning the state championship.
Coach Stacy plans to send a squad
numbering about fifteen, to the uniyer-
sty of Vermont meet held at Burlington

representatives of the school to the meet
which will be held under the auspices of

The 20-yard dash was the first event

Chase by Them.

Omaha, Neb., March 1.-Two con
victs, John Dowd and John Taylor, who
escaped last Thursday from the state
peritentiary at Lincoln and Roy Blunt,
an innocent victim of their murderous
attempt to gain liberty, are dead as
result of battle with the officers
of the law yesterday afternoon.
Charles Morley, third convict, who
escaped from the prison after killing
three officials, saved his life by sur
rendering to the officers with whom he
fought running battle over three miles
with horses on the gallop.
The telephone operator at Gretna first
reported the desperate mems presence,
resulting in bringing six posses to the
vicinity.
The convcts had broken into store
at Murdoch and stolen guns, ammuni-
tior and clothing Then they forced
Blunt and his wife to give them break
fast and furnish an outfit with which
they hoped to escape to Albright com
pelling Blunt to act as driver.
Chief Briggs and the sherifis, secured
a fast livery rig and gave chase. The
conyicts forced Blunt to lash the horses
into run, while they fought the pur-
suers with shotguns and reyolyers
When within 100 yards, the officers
opened fire with rifles and the battle
ragged for three miles along the country
road
Finally Blunt toppled back into the
WAGON shot dead The posse soon shot
down Dowd and then Taylor Merely
threw up his hands and was disarmed.
He was taken back to Lincoln by train.

spring meet is held. Moses, a sopho-

posed and did not enter. Craig, senior,
did not make his appearance in the runs,

In the running broad jump, there are

to meet all corners. The manner in

The Poet.

The poet has a fearful time,
For when the spring birds call,
He has to write vivid rime
About the tang of falls
In summers heat he hammers ont
A CHEEKY Christmas thing.
And in the fall he sings about
The eroeuses of spring!
His summer ballads pay for coal,
His winter ones for ice,
providing that his little roll
OF verses brings price,.
His life is sort Of upside down,
And inside out az WELL
For in the busy bustling town
lie sings the "bosky dell. "
A landsman vet he sings the sea-
A chantey full Of zest-
He reels off western poetry
And never sees the West
In TACT. the poet is a bird
OF temperament and whim,
And thought these verses are absurd
They're less absurd than him.
