CHAINS DISPLAY GREAT POWER IN
 BEATING GLEES

$ The Washington G1ees suffered From stage fright for a few minutes in the first period of the game at Newfield park yesterday afternoon and before they got back to earth the American Chain football warriors had piled up a lead which made victory almost certain. Later in the contest the Chains added more points to their total but by getting the jump on their opponents they took the heart out of the Elm City boys. The final score was, Chains IT; Glees 0.
 The first play of the game spilled the beans for the GIees. On the kickoff. which was high and rather short, Coogan of the Glees was sur rounded by Chain tacklers as he tried to pick up the ball. He fumbled d and Hunt of the Chains, fell on the zba11 out of bounds. That gave the Chains the leather on the Glees' 25 yard line and after making few gains through the line, Coach Waters Threw forward pass to Nagle, who eaught the ball on the two yard line. sF'orst then went over for a touch down and Brady kicked goal. A few lninutes later Brady wicked a field goal from the 35 yard line.
 E The Glees played a good defensive Eane after that but their attack was Completely stopped by the heavy Ehatn line. In the second half Mo shier and Forst made steady advances Flown the field and Forst shot across 6or the second touchdown. Brady kicked goal Bob Hurley, a local Boy who played with the G1ees, was Tackled so hard that two ribs were Broken.
 7 John Hurley, another Bridgeporter on the Glees, was also hurt, but re- turned to the game in the third period. He and Johnny Nagle of the .Glees, were put out of the game for fighting. Bill Flanagan and Eddie Reilly, two local boys, played well for the Glees. Moshier, Forst, Bakos, Waters, Brady and Nagle starred for the Chains. The lineup:

Truth From Doesors

A noted Boston physician does 'io'

seriousness Of their cases. He thinks
the truth harms a patient less than
,eception which makes him lose faith
in his doctor a woman OF our az

bcrculosis some years ago, and began
a course OF treatment by living in the
omen. Her case did not seem very Sc
rious and she was not told that IT
might be. but she happened to hear
the doctor discussing the question
with her husband and thus learned
that she must be very careful. She
later said had she not overheard
what the doctor said she would have
been often inclined to do things that
might have aggravated the case. She
believes it is better to know the truth

Leaiand Was in Wretehsd Condition
for Four Years and Could Hardly

L don't remember ever having felt
better in my life than do now after
taking Tanlac.'' said Fred Leaiand.
an employee Of the Portland Shoe
Manufacturing Company, and who
resides at los Cumberland avenue
Portland, Me. recently. Continuing,
he said:
After having three attacks OF
pneumonia / was left in an extremely
bad physical condition and have been
this way for four years. l lost a
great deal of weight and was very
weak and felt tired and wornout all
the time. / managed to keep going
and stay at my work, but while did
and my duties were not very hard, /
was in such an exhausted condition
when my days work was done it was
all could Go to drag myself home
My nerves we're in an awful shape,
and was so restless I could get but
little sleep. as would just roll and
toss all night long. and If did man
age to get to sleep I would wake up
every few minutes with a start, as
though / was frightened. I was just
simply in a bad way, and although
had tried lots of different kinds OF
medicines none of them seemed to do
me any good.
II had been reading so many state
ments from people who had been
benefited by taking Tanlac-I decided
to try it, and ! am sure glad ! did,
for while have taken only two bot
ties so far I have gained seven
pounds in weight and am gaining in
weight and strength every day, and
feel sure it will only be a short while
before l will be as stout as ] ever
was. That tired. wornout feeling is
all gone and when 60 to bed I sleep
as sound as a log all night long and
get up feeling greatly refreshed. and
can work all day long and feel as
good when l am through in the after
noon as I did when started to work
in the morning. My nerves are In
fine condition and outside Of being
little thin am enjoying as good
general health as l ever did in my
life. l think Tanlac is a remarkable
medicine, and I am only too glad to
be able to say a good work for it,

we are having very little or no

is plenty of employment at fair

the high wages of the bricklayer. the

an evidence that they are particularly

carranza's Challenge
baltimore American)


1T will be recalled that during the
war there were ugly statements cir
cuiated to the effect that Mexico, in
the interest OF Germany. was dispos-
ed to shut off the Mexican oil sup
plies and thereby impoverish the
British navy in this necessity. The
inner history Of this episode has new
ef been fully brought to light. The
Carranza government was then, as
now. making excuse that the conces-
sions Of Mexican oil lands did not
convey title to the oil under the soil.
and that the government claimed all
this through the Matchmaking clauses
OF the constitution; and without COM
pensation. Now, the Mexican Senate
has passed Carranza's oil bill, which
acts as an amendment to the Consti-
tuition. IT, the House acts favorably
the effect will be to pass over all the
oil interests unreservedly to the gov
ernmept. Mexican CaHranxa's spokes-
men make no bones Of avowing tho
purpose OF the government to oust
the owners 0f oil concessions and all
other Americans out Of their rights.
Twenty-one American oil companies
have made appeal to the American
Congress, and the Shipping Board
also is alarmed over the prospect of
cutting of the Mexican supplies,
upon which 1t depends for fuel for
the American merchant shipping.
Such an attitude Of unveiled hostility
on the part Of the Carranza govern
ment is a challenge in the field of
American interest and right that can
not go upnoticed. Mr.. Wilson is said
to be giving the matter the fullest
consideration" t.... .E.'.
