opening session, one in the second and

eclat as was exhibited by the jus fly
famous United States Marines going
after the Heinies at Chateau Thierry
and elsewhere. When the smoke had
cleared away the first aid station re-
ported four singles, a pair of walks
and the same number OF errors for
seven husky runs.
After the opener it was ball game.
McVoy was steady and famed nine

Snead pitched steadily and at times,
brilliantly, but he was accorded stel-
lar support. Harry Scarritts pretty

Brewton's best chance for RIM.
There was considerable hitting on
both sides, but Ellis was the only man
to make more than one sack, and the

Endorsement Given

We believe that any one suffering
with rheumatism will be interested
in the following letter received by
the manufacturers OF Anti-Uric:
my wife suffered for years with
rheumatism, and We had just about
decided there was no hope Of q cure.
She was unwilling at first to try
Anti-Uric because she had used so
many remedies with no result. but
was finally persuaded to do so. The
first outfit seemed to make her
worse. but she persisted In the
treatment, and the results were won
derful. After suffering for many
years she is now well, and we are
unable to express our gratitude in
sufficiently strong terms.
This voluntary statement is
given in the hope that others who
suffer with rheumatism will be con-
vinced that Anti-Uric will cure them.
Anyone who wishes to inquire Of me
regarding my experience with this
remedy is at liberty to do so, and
will receive prompt reply. Both
my wife and myself wish to thank
you from the bottom of our hearts"

JOACHIM KILLS SELF
Youngest Son of Ex-Kaiser Is
Suicide.
Said to Have Been Broodlnu Over FL
nancial Embarrassments-
Wounded In War.

London, July 2O.-Former Kaiser
Wilhelm's youngest son, Prince Joa-
chin, has ended his life.
Advices from Berlin say the prince,
who was known to have been brood
ing over money embarrassments, shot
himself In Potsdam. The princes wife
left him last year.
Prince Joachim, sixth son Of the ex-
kaiser, has been In the world limelight
during the last six years almost as
much as his older brothers. During
the latter days of the war he distin-
guished himself on several occasions.
He was wounded during the summer
Of 1914 In the fighting In East Prussia.
AT that time a shell fragment tore
away part of his thigh and he was
laid up for many weeks, returning to
the front against the advice of at
tending surgeons. He was awarded
the Iron Cross soon after receiving
the wound.
Joachim was born In 1890. The
story Of his life at the imperial court
written by Countess Amille Elsen-
borg, for Is years lady-in-waiting to
the German empress, describes him as
the spoiled child of his mother. Like
most spoiled children, the countess
said in her story, he has repaid indul-
gence with worry and disappointment.
Prematurely born, he has been a
physical weakling and subject to cpl
leptic fits since birth. Because of his
i'll health he was allowed much lati-
tude by his mother and his tutors,
with the result that he was described
as being strong neither morally nor
mentally by those who came In close
contact with him.
Despite, these handicaps, however,
his war career, which began almost
with the mobilization Of the first of
the German armies, has been described
as thrilling and unusual.
