three hits IN five innings and struck

another.
Stround finished the game and per

The Havana Fracas.

As an average proposition the champion is awarded
the cinch until he is beaten. So it is surprising the
number of people, who should know who believe Willard
has good chance in the coming match Surpris
ing when Wizards record is taken into consideration
and the lack of experience he has drawn in the last
eighteen months.
Part of this may be due to the fact that Johnson is
not supposed be in condition for any long march and
another part may be due to the old axiom that the
wish is father to the thought"
If Willard wins it will be the most popular victory
ever staged. As a rule, the bystanders hate to
champion topped from the throne There was grief
IN the land of the most virulent type when Corbett
beat John L., disappointment when Wolgast upset Mel
SON. and general peevishness when Johnson beat Jeries

Think "Hyomei the Most Wonderful Treatment for Catarrh Ever Dis

 Do not try to cure catarrh by using sprays or lotions; it cannot be cured in that manner. The only way in which this too common disease can be fully relieved is through a direct ap@ plication to the affected parts that will kill the bacilh of catarrh and prevent their growth.
 Breathing the air of Hyomei is the only known method of treatment that can really accomplish, this. It is the simplest most pleasant and probably the most reliable treatment for catarTh that has ever been discovered.
 Numerous unsolicited testimonials have been received from prominent men and women who have been helped by this remarlsscse remedy. Ministers, bankers, lawyers, even eminent physi- cis.ns haVs given strong testimony as 70 the powers of Hyomsi.
