WATCH
 M'L0UGHLIN IN COMEBACK EFFORT

New York, July 12zeOff1cers of the National Tennis association and fol- lowers of the court game in general are watching with unusual interest in tuning up progress of Maurice B. McT Loughlin in the expectation that the famous California racquet star will make a final effort at the coming na- tional championships to win outright the singles bowl, emblematic of the title. The Comet" already holds two legs upon the trophy and needs but one more victory to clinch possession and add the bowl to his large collec- ton of prizes won in all parts of the world.
 From present indications the fa- nous international list will face a hard field when he takes the courts at Forest Hills, L. l., next month. In addition to Williams, Johnston and other leaders in the tennis ranking, there will be the two Japanese play CTS Kumagae and Mikami as we'll as several of the younger experts who are rapidly approaching the first rank , Johnston also showed the strain of his tennis campaign late last fall and was ordered by his physician to rest for several months. This spring he has complained of soreness in his racquet arm but it is expected that he will be in perfect condition when he comes east to defend his title.
 R. Norris Williams, the other for mer champion has played but little tennis to date but is understood to be taking a special course of training in order to be fit for the national cham pionship tournament so that it can be seen that Mclaughlin is going to have a decidedly hard task ahead of him in his effort to --e,i the singles bowl out right this season, which may be his last in championship play.

DOUBLE BILL SATURDAY.

Although there was talk yesterday that playing manager would be en- gagged for the Bridgeport club and that Mike Healy would take charge of the business affairs, it is now as- serted that Healy will take entire charge of the field management. He realizes that the catching department and first base are weak and he will take steps to get men for those posi- tions. Although Healy has handled semi.pro teams he has never had any professional experience. Managing a baseball club is one of the mose difi- cult jobs that can be imagined. Healy has a tough time ahead of him and if he makes good the fans will be glad to give him credit.
 As a preliminary to the Lynn game on Saturday afternoon at Newfeld. the U. M. C. and Chain Co. clubs of the Industrial league will play. The contest will determine the leadership of the league and big crowd is as- sured. This contest will start at 2 D. m. and the main game at o'clock. There has been a great deal of betting on the shop game and it is said that the Chain Co. rooters have $500 they want to wager. ="
 Otto Deininger had great day at the bat yesterday. The Bridgeport outfielder had two singles, a double, triple and sacrifice in five times up. His single in the ninth drove in two runs gave Bridgeport a chance for the game. But Howie Baker made the third out on grounder.

DRINK HOT TEA
FOR A BAD COLD



Get a small package Of Hamburg
Breast Tea, or as the German folks
call it, Hamburger Brust Thee" at any
pharmacy Take a tablespoonful OF the
tea, put a cup Of boiling water upon
it. pour through sieve and drink a
teacup full at any time during the
day or before retiring. 1t is the most
effective way to break a cold and cure
grip, as it opens the pores OF the skin,
relieving congestion. Also loosens TIN,
bowels, thus driving cold from the
system
Try it the next time you suffer from
a cold or the grip. 1t is inexpensive
and entirely vegetable, therefore safe
and harmless.

and Buffalo, and, strange to say,
these boats, with their woodworking
engines, made the trip about as fast
as do the modern Detroit and Buffa-
10 boats today, for these old-timers,
running opposite each other, made
the long trip every night from early
spring until late in the fall, and were
almost always on time to the minute.
Some years later when Detroit and
Toledo had taken away Monroe's
prestige as lake port, the Northern
Indiana was converted into sailing
vessel by removing her guards and
giving her more standing keel, and
her model was so trim that she show
ed her heels to every white winged
flyer on the lakes, but her speed final
ly proved her undoing, as, after leav-
ing Mackinac one snowy, blizzardly
November night, bound for Milwau-
kee, she over-ran her shippers rec
koning by two hours, and piled on
the rocks hopeless wreck, drowning
all of the crew except the mate and
the cook.
After the decline of Monroe as
lake port and the building of the De-
troit, Monroe and Toledo which is
now also a part of the New York
Central, the old road TO the lake was
abandoned, and was almost forgotten,
except by the very few old-timers,
still living, and it is this abandoned
part of the road that dredge is un-
covering. Now and then pieces of
the old iron strap-rails nailed fast to
oak stringers are brought up, togeth-
er with pieces of twelve-inch equare
mudsills. An old wooden frog and
pin have been dug up, with two or
three old-fashion chain couplings, the
drawbar not even having been
thought of then.
The much-despised German carp is
the cause of the dredge's visit and ac-
tivity here, for it is the huge excava-
ton for a carp pond that caused the
old railroad to be uncovered. This
carp pond, when finished, will be the
largest in the country, equipped with
electric water pumps for keeping the
supply of water fresh the year
around, and all other conveniences so
dear to the heart Of carp. The pond
will be large enough to hold many

For telling the public that a man

Referring to a deceased citizen as
one who is mourned by the entire
community, when he will only be
missed by the poker circle, $10.13.
Referring to one as a hero and
man of courage and one who will
stand by his honest convictions, when
everybody knows that he is a moral
coward and would sell out for thirty
cents, 1921.
Referring to some gallivantin' fe-
male as an estimable lady whom it
is pleasure to meet and know, when
every man in town would sooner see
Satan coming, $50.
Calling an ordinary pulpit orator

Sending a doughty sinner to Heaven,
$500.
Referring to a deceased merchant
who never advertised in his life as
