Spring Colds Are Dangerous.

Sudden changes of temperature and

this happy combination of antiseptic

have been lingering cold is broken
up. Don't stop treatment when relief
is first felt as half cured cold is dan
geous. Take DR.. Kings New Discov-

decided to raise the price for making

AMERICAS CALL,
'Breathes there a man with soul q
dead

''Breathes there a man with soul &C
dead,
Who never to himself hath said:
This is my own, my native land'?'
Who ne'er has come at close Of day,
Cn bended knees his God to pray,
That truth and liberty may stand?
Is there a man with pride so stilled
That untold millions Iifeblood spilled
For him brings not the blush OF
shame?
Or on whose ears the dying call
OF ali humanity can fall
And he. unheeding. feel no blame?
Does ever man breathe freedom air
And in her countless blessings share,
Then Ito a crown allegiance hold?
Yes, does Old Glory in her rise
Fail to dim one mortaps eyes,
Who seeks his shelter meath Its fold
If there be one of such as these:
Let him depart on widest seas
From land his presence doth profane;
To serve his monarch long a slave
Then in forgotten, unmarked grave
Return but dust to earth as gain.

League.
(Ry Associated Press.>

New York, May 7.-Cold and rainy
weather played havoc with the
schedules of the major leagues last
week. Twenty-four games, eleven In
the national. and thirteen in the AM
erican were postponed to be played
later, mostly in douhIeheaders. Not
withstanding rain-soaked grounds
some good material was shown, es-
pecially on Wednesday, which brought
forth probably Ahe best pitching of the
year. Vaughn, of Chicago, and Toney
OF Cincinnati, set up a record at Chi
cago when they went nine innings
without allowing the opposing bats
in the tenth, and Cincinnati won the
game. 1 to 0 on two singles, the only
hits of the contest. Both pitchers had
brilliant support.
At the polo grounds the same day.
New York and Brooklyn battled
through fourteen innings to 2-2 tie,
the second extra inning tie game for
Brooklyn in two weeks. Ames. pitch
ing for st, Louis held Pittsburgh to
two hits, winning by 4 to 0.
In the American there we're two
shutouts by scores of 2 to 0. Fisher
helped New York beat Washington
with Johnson in the box, and Dauss
pitched Detroit to victory over st.
Louis.
Giants Lose Leadership.
New York held its leadership in the
National until Sunday, when st. Louis
went ahead through a to 0 victory
over Cincinnati.
st. Louis lost two games to Chica-
go, and won two from Pittsburgh dur

continued a winning pace, may be

not lose a game and improved, their
positions at the expense of Boston,
which fell to seventh place and New
York which did not win a game.
Break American Tie.
The tie for first, place in the AM
erican league was broken, and Boston,
which took two games from Phila-
delphia now has a commanding lead
over Chicago, which failed to keep UP
its previous good gait, and lost three
out Of four games. New York held on
to third place, while breaking even in
q four game series with Washington.
st. Louis climbed from sixth to fourth
place and is right behind New York.

In an exhibition game featured by
rather erratic playing, and pitching
just little better than the re-season
brand, the Fargo Northern
league squad defeated the Carlisle &
Bristol nine, to 2, at league park
yesterday afternoon. Eight hundred
fans saw the contest.
The leaguers took an early lead
mixing one hit, a pass and seven err

the first two innings. The fourth run
found its way over in the eighth. The
Carlisle & Bristol crew scored one run
in each Of the eighth and ninth In
nings.
Boardman, Ashbrook and waswc

head normal backstop, worked the full
route for the semi-pros. Ashbrook
and Waswo each allowed one hit

two being doubles.
Errors were even. six and six.
Boyle And Doherty Corners.
The work of Buck" Boyle and
Doherty at first and third, respective
1y, candidates for positions with the
league crew, was OF q high order, both
practically cinching their jobs, 1t was
said last night. Both fielded faultless-
ly, even brilliantly, Doherty making a
great onehanded SCOOP Of a slow
grounder in the sixth, and negotiating
a perfect throw to first. Both showed
lots of pep.
Durham, right fielder, was the hit
ting star. getting single and double
in three trips to the plate. The work
Of the other recruits was fair
Boardman, Bachant, Meixell and
Debus, regulars last year, made good
showings Boardman pitched the first
three innings. tanning eight. giving
one pass, but not allowing a hit or a
run.

men, will be cut to fifteen by Wednes-
