No need of anyone being afraid of the after effects and slow recovery from Spanish Influenza, hard colds or Grippe, if they will use common sense and start in building up their health and strength the right way.
 The main thing is to get the blood rich, red, and pure, so it can carry life-giving oxygen and strength to every part of the body. Impure blood is the cause of so many slow recoveries and set-backs.
 Doctors say: "Get the blood right and the rest is easy, that nine-tenths of all sickness is due to lack of iron and phosphates; the healthy strong, vigorous man or woman's blood is al ways loaded with these two life-giv- ing clements.
 Physicians also claim with fresh air and nourishing food nothing equals Phosphated Iron as a blood tonic and health builder. PhosDhat.

APPEAL.
 GOES OFF THE
 COURT DOCKET
Counsel Reach Agreement to Continue Case Without
 Prejudice to Either.

By agreement of counsel, and not to hamper the United States government, the case of Charles G. Lincoln, Inc, against the City of Bridgeport, an appeal upon legal grounds against the taking of property at 976 Main street for the proposed plaza, has been taken off the trial list of the Superior court, and is indefinitely continued This action is taken without prejudice to the rights of either party, Judge 1aines announced.

When the matter came before l the court yesterday Attorney R. H. Gould for the appellant asked for de- lay of the trial to examine the new situation. He declined to waive the rights of his client upon the Iega, questions involved at the request ot City Attorney Comley.
 At the afternoon session of court an agreement was reached between counsel whereby Attorney Gould stip- ulates he will take no action to inter. fere with the requisition by the gov. ernment, and City Attorney Comley allows the hearing to be continued without detriment to the rights ot the appellant so far as the city is con- cerned. If in the future the govern. ment drops the proceedings Attorney Gould retains the right to contest the action of the city.
 The Lind0ln Co., has a lease upon the premises for which it was awarded damages of $1O,352 but claims it is damaged to the extent of $40,0OO.

ANNIVERSARY OF THIRD
 SUIMIVAN-RYAN BATTLE

John l.. Sullivan knocked out Paddy Ryan in the third round at San Fran cisco thirty-two years ago today. This was the third and last meeting be- tween the two great Irish fighters. Ryan was champion of America when he first met the "Boston Strong Boy' at Mississippi City in 1882. Paddy was knocked out in the ninth round and John L. became the king of American pugilism. Ryan tried to regain his lost 1aurels at New York ia 1885, but the police stopped the bout before it had fairly started. They were then matched by a San Francis co club, but poor old Paddy was only a bite for the voracious John l.. Ryan fought only one more battle, when he was whipped by Joe McAu- life in New York. Paddy hailed or- iginally from Tipperary, but settled in Troy, N. Y, where he died. He attained the championship in 1880 by whipping Joe Goss in a terrific eighty seven-round battle at Golfers Sta ton, Va

ANNIVERSARY OF FIRST
 YALE-PRINCETON GAME

The first gridiron contest between Princeton and Yale was played at New Haven 45 years ago tomorrow, the Tigers winning by goals to 0. This Is generally considered the first of the great classics of American intercollegiate football, which include Yale-Princeton, Yale-Harvard, Army Navy and contests between other great institutions of learning in the East and West. Et was 43 years ago yesterday that the first gridiron clash between Harvard and Yale took place at New Haven. and in this historic contest the Ellis were again Yanquish- ed.
 After the first game in 1873, the Tiger and the Bulldog did not meet on the gridiron again until 1878, when Yale was the winner The contest of the following year was a tie, aI- though some tables give the game to the Ellis by touchdowns to 0. The old Intercollegiate Football Associa- ton had been formed the previous year, but Yale had refused to join. The rules adopted by the association were a modification of the Rugby l Union code The Ellis protested 1 against the rule requiring that each 1 team consist of 15 players, and stood for the adoption of the Eton system l of II players on a side. Yale also objected against the American inno- vation of scoring by touchdowns, and 1 held firm for the old system of count ing only by goals
 In the 1877 Princeton Yale game,
 1;- made two touchdowns but failed in the ensuing tries for goal Princetor
 made neither touchdowns not goal, hence, under an agreement made be-
 fore the contest, the final score was 0 to O. Had Yale admitted the prac-
 tice of counting touchdowns, the Ellis
 would have been victors in that con test. In some compilations Yale is
 set down as the victor in the 1884 and
 1886 games, but both of these were
 officially declared ties. These games
 were called on account of darkness,
 and although Yale was in the lead in
 both cases the rules of that time re-
 ouired that a championship game
 should consist of two full 45-minute halves The Intercollegiate Conven- , ton, the supreme court of football
 upheld the decisions of the referees
 in giving tie decisions.
 Jess Willard, the great pacifistic
 heavyweight champion, has never had
 the reputation of being a spendthrift
 but the latest manifestation of cheap
 ness he pulled certainly deserves to be
 recorded. The boxing diviAion of the United War Work campaign recently
 sent the champion several telegrams
 asking him to offer his services for the drive for funds. These messages were of course, prepaid. But when he sent Illis answers to the Boxing Division Willard who is making quite a pile out of the ol business somewhere 1T Texas at the present moment, took great care to send them collect Which, to say the least is pretty cheaI stuff for a man who Is doing as wei financially as the well known circu:
 owner is.

SPORTING NOTES

Pugilists may well be proud of the record being made by their French brothers in the ring. Beginning with Georges Carpentier and going all along down the line the French fight CTS have reefcted the greatest glory upon their profession, and the record they have made for themselves in the present war will stand forever. Tho latest boxer of the great Republic to win glory on the battlefield is Francis Charles, the leading French middle weight. He has been cited for bravery in face of the enemy and his various perilous exploits have won him the admiration of the entire French army.

TO CLARITY WAR DEATHS
Mr.. Baker Will Amplify Term
"Died From Other Causes" in
Casualty List.

Amplification Of the term died from
other causes" as now included in the
Army casualty list. is under consider
alton by Secretary Baker. The gen.
eral belief now is that under this
heading are incltded the names of
soldiers who are executed, put to
death for military offenses. and the
attention of the War Department has
been called to the fact that unneces-
sary anguish has been caused rela-
tives of soldiers who, although not
killed in action. have died honorably.
Secretary Baker said yesterday that
the term "other causes" had been used
to cover also deaths from various
kinds of accidents. suicides and
homicides. While it is proposed to
Introduce more descriptive term
the department has no intention of
specifically publishing the names Of
soldiers who commit suicide or who
are put to death by order OF military
tribunals.
