DOINGS IN THE WORLD OF SPORTS. BASEBALL. Alperman Has Narrow Es cape From Awful End. Browse Says Boston Will Work Hard Against the Biants. Merita Has “Phony” Contract— Bresnahan For the Reds. Pitlshurg, I’f.„ Jan. 17.—only extreme good Vi ok tavtii f'Smrles Alperman, the popular tocond tawnmn of the Hrook lyn team, iroiri U iiig' blown into a thousand pieces jby sticks f dyna mite here. Alptfn,an v.as just about to f their minor brothers offering this sum for an outfielder. A little investigation revealed the facts of the case. Mertes was taken by Minneapolis under a two-year contract, last year getting a salary of £2400. and the J6*)0*i part of the contract is thought to be more in the nature of a non reserve document for the purpose of forestalling any prospective drafter in the major leagues. The figures named tuv so abnormal for a minor league to offer that it is hardly thought that the contract Will hold, and Mertes is prob nnly using it as a scarecrow to frighten away the drafters of the two big leagues, who might take him and then offer him a small salary. BRESNAHAN AND HOFMAN MAY PLAY WITH THE REDS. New lork. Jan. 17.—Here is a bit of sensational ball news front the burg that prides itself on the tine Wiener wurst, beer and occasional pipe base ball stories. Still it is interesting to local fans slr.ee it intimates that Bresnahan may eventually become a Ked. So read over the following from Cincinnati and think your own think and then try to figure out what has come over “Garry" Herrmann: “Despite a few mild protests there is absolutely no doubt that the Cincinnati baseball team is preparing to complete, It possible, deals whereby Roger Bres Mhan and Artie Hof man will be seer with the Reds during the coming year. "Directly after President August Herrmann returned from the East it was announced that both Reach and Hofman were out of the question, but the reluctant manner in which Charles Murphy told President Herrmann that he could not have Hofman made many of the wise ones think differently, while it is just as plain now that Reach was always in the tunning and the chances are now that he will he secured. “As tor Bresnahan. the situation is just this: McOratv has discarded his pet Idea of the old guard and has shifted the majority of them to other territories. Bresnahan, of till ofliers the mar whom McOraw wanted to trade the most, was left. Thus it is plain that it M -Craw ran secure a good youngster and Ueorge Schlei for Bresnahan the deal is almost sure to go through. "Thus it is not only possible but highly probable that Reach, llofman and Br« snahan will b» seen here before the team goes South. The Hofman mat ter bears more than watching on ac count of the lark of a denial of the story from Chicago. Charley Murphy j never loses a chance to put a stamp or. any unfounded report and as yet he J lias had nothing to say regarding the j Hofman rumor. ••On the whole, Cincinnati could well afford to make quite a sacrifice to sc- j cure these three stars, and it is as sured that President Herrmann will go to almost any limit to get them.” HARRY DAVIS CHEATED BY THE OFFICIAL FIGURES. Philadelphia. Jan. 17.— Ac cording to Harry Davis, curtain of tue Athletics, he got the worst of it in the official hatting averages of the American Reague. "Who-, ever got np the Usurps for Ban John son,” said the walloping first sacker. “beat me out of a home run. Officially I am credited with seven jabs for tlic circuit, but I made eight, and there was no question about any of them, for each and every smash was over the fence. I made only one homer away from Phillie and that was on our first trip to Boston, Cy Young pitching against us. I am pos itive I put the ball cut of the lot seven times at Columbia park and can name tha pitchers—Dineen (twice). White. Oberlin, Walsh. Joss and Donovan. I would not make a holler about this, for I do not think I am a record player, hut my friends talk of presenting a cup to me on which will lie engraved the num ber of loep-tlie-loop swats I made, and I want to have the data right.” PORTLAND BASEBALL ASSO CIATION’S ANNUAL MEETING. Portland, Me., Jan. 17.—The annual meeting of the Portland Baseball As sociation was held yesterday afternoon at the office of the Corporation Trust Co. at the West End. President Kol leher presided. The reports of the past year wore read. A committee was appointed consist ing of Col. H. M. Castner and P. F. Foley to report a list of iive directors for tile consideration of the stockhold ers. The committee reported Florence F. Driscoll. Harry E. Mason. James if. Keilelier, J. \V. Mitchell and Dr. C. R. Cm gin. It was voted that the'cleric cast the vote of the stockholders for the gentle men named. This was done. The board of directors then proceeded In eieci officers as follows: President-J. H. Kelleher.

Steps will be taken to see what can be done about organizing State Dengue and air effort will he made to have a conference with the Bangor people before long. One of the directors said that they had heard nothing from Frol Rake concerning his proposed league and that the metnners of I lie association knew nothing inure about it than they had read in 111** papers. This director said that his association would have some kind of a team in Portland this year. HOPPE BEATS CUTLER TWICE ON THURSDAY. Boston. Jan 17.—Willie Hoppe defeated All>eit Cutler in both the afternoon and evening (tames at Murray Irwin's bil liard rooms yesterday. The afternoon same was decidedly the is>st of the se ries. Hoppe winning by a score of 3)0 to 18?. Hoppe save a splendid exhibition of billiards, and won rounds of applause by tbe masterly manner in which he extri cated himself from difficult positions, his muste shots in particular being very finely executed. He played with great coil fide nr.., and was easily master of the situation at all times. Cutler also played a steady game and finished very strong. In comparison with the afternoon game, that in the evening was tame. Hoppe was decidedly off in tiis play, and Cutler, though he played a good uphill game, was up against the worst kind of luck, the halls breaking very badly for him. He extricated himself from bad positions by brilliant Aork several times, but the succession rf line-ups that he ran into was too much to overcome. When Hoppe scored his 173 Cutler was just 100 points behind. From that on the local lApert gained cn Ids opponent and finished 73 points behind. Cutler's runs of fin and 41 were the highest of the evening game, but Hoppe's run of 91 was the best for the day's play. The election of a Yale football cap tain for 1908 has been indefinitely post poned by the failure of the football lead ers to locate Halfback Berger, who is somewhere between New Haven and Mexico. Berger went to Mexico for his holiday vacation. He is supposed to he on his way back to New Haven, but no one knows where. No further action in the matter of selecting a captain will ho taken until Berger returns. The first series of the all-age stake in the United States field trials which are in progress at Grand Junction. Tenn.. was run Thursday and parti cipated in by seven braces. Ten dogs were selected to run in the second scries Saturday. The Derby, which was concluded Thursday, was won by Doc P., owned by A. C. Peterson. Unk Russel and Jim Potts will box at New York next Wednesday night. BOXING. Anderson and Webber Draw at Westbrook. j i Coming B. B, A. Tournament Seems Rich In Promise. Papke to Arrive at Hub Monday*** More Bouts at Chelsea. Portland, .Ue., J.in. boxing :msk and the piek of New York. Tlie sperm I bouts should be very in t eras tins, for the Boston boxers have all made good, not only in open classes, but also in local specials. The open classes are for feather weights, lightweights and heavy weights. Tiie weight for the feathers is II.', give or take two pounds, while for lightweights it is 135, give or take two pounds. Any man over 158 pounds, or for that matter not too much below the middleweight limit, will he eligible for the heavyweight class. This will t»e a good try-out for tlie local amateurs who may want to tak" part in the national championships which will be held in March. The en tries for the open classes will close to morrow. The prize in each class is a gold watch, with a silver watch to the boxer bcat« n in the linal bout. Kntries should be sent to George V. Brown. This is a good chance for the boxers at the different weights, as there will he rmly one more .show before the cham pionships. Dill Papke, v.-ho is to meet Walter Stanton at the Armory A. A. next week, will not arrive here till -Monday morning’, as lie Is filling an engagement it Milwaukee. I’apke was just to start Cor this- city early last week when he was offered the engagement at Mil waukee, ard accepted, as it was easy money. Papke is being touted to win very riuiekl;,. but Stanton is a good perform er and is tint to do bettor than anybody except Hugo Kelley has ever done against tin' Thunderbolt. Stanton did good work against two men in one night at New York last winter. It's time a meritorious performance to beat two men. no matter what their rating, in one night. Th semi-lin. ll was arranged yester day when Kid Freeman, the haymak er possessor of South lloston, will meet Kid Manning of Pawtucket in an 8 round liout. Freeman and Manning started m on ail X-round bout at Chel sea Monday when Hu- “cops" “pinched” them. They are apt to make a very fast contest. Tlitrc was a lot of talk around town last night that the Winnisimmct A. C. will hold a show on next Friday. The emit cases of the bxers, referees and seconds arrested Monday will be heard mu Monday, and that will give ample time t'e tween the two universities to a game in i!Wi!>. A dispatch from Hanover announces that Manager lame of the Dartmouth eleven lias received an answer from Princeton in reference to the matter of a renewal of relations between Dart mouth and Princeton on the gridiron. The i’riac* ton reply to the Dartmouth overtures is couched in the friendliest of terms, but it is negative in tone. The Tiger football people base their re fusal to give Dartmouth a place on the Princeton s. Charles Smith finished second in the final, but was disqualified on account an alleged foul. Billy Glover of South Boston wast defeated by Willie Fitzgerald of” Philadelphia in a 10-round bout be fore the Standard Athletic Club at Lymansville, R. I., Thursday night. The Fighting Harp had the best of the going from the start and cleverly out pointed his opponent.

STATE HOUSE. Gen. Farnham Talks ol the National Guard. Touches on Enesmpmeni and Other Important Matters. Tehuantepec Silver Mines Co. In creases Capital Stock. c STATE HOUSE CALENDAR. Next Meeting of Governor and Coun cil Tuesday, Jan. 28, at 10 A. M. A decision will within a short tinic be rendered by the military authori ties of the State on the question whether the Maine organizations of the National Guard will mobilize for the annual tour of duty next August on the State campground in this city or whether they will participate in the maneuvers in the Portland artillery district as was the case last year. An invitation was recently received from the federal government to participate in the Portland maneuvers, and the matter is being carefully considered. In speaking of his recent trip to Poston where he attended the annual convention of the National Guard As sociation of the United States, Adjutant General Farnham said yesterday: “A large number of matters, cover ing a wide variety of subjects, all looking toward the betterment of the National Guard, were discussed at the convention. and resolutions were adopted which will be emb". and have your "Adams Apple" cut oft, if you want to be consistent and of course you will have to give up your trip to St. Augustine this winter. Think how awfully it must grate on the nervous fieople who have to live in St. Paul. Los Angeles and other places innocently carrying biblical names.” "And think again of tin; thoughtless and sacreligious persons who erect buildings of steel made in “Bethlehem Pa. You can never have the healing help of “St. Jacobs Oil." Never see a foot ball game played by the "Sons of Eli,” never sail on the steamer "St. Paul” and never taste “Elijah’s Manna.” A lot of good things in this Avorld take their names from the Bible. It is truly a mark of respect to name a good article after a good man. MORAL.—Genuine piety respects the prophets and the worthy people, places and things named after them. see how much better this arrangement would be from a sanitary standpoint. "Men are at work on the camp ground engaged in drilling an artesian well for a water supply for the camp. This well is situated on Western avenue side. Borings have now been made for a distance of 116 feet and it looks as if plenty of water would be struck within a short time as the rocks are softening. Two veins of water have been reached and the last one was better than the first. “The National Guard of Maine, I am happy to say,” the general concluded, "is today in great shape. We have some good men in the service and they seem to take a deeper interest than ever in affairs military. The action of the War Dept, in selecting a I member of the National Guard for the j position of second lieutenant in the j army will be an incentive for young j men to join the Guard. Members of j the National Guard of the State of j Maine who desire to enter the con. petition for second lieutenancy should make application to the adjutant j general, properly endorsed by tin- j mediate commanding officer and regi mental commander, not later than March 1, 1908. Only one candidate can be selected but all applications received will be presented to the com- mander-in-chief for his consideru- tion." A certificate lias been filed at the otiiee of the secretary of State that at a meeting of the stockholders of the Tehuantepec Silver Mines Co., which was held at the office of the corporation in Portland on Wednesday, Jan. 15, it was voted to increase the capital stock of the corporation from SI,000,000 to $1,125,000, and to change the number of directors of the corporation from five to seven. The capital stock as now fixed is divided into 225,000 shares at the par value of $5 each. Chairman Carleton of the Commission of Inland Fisheries and Game has re ceived a personal request from Hon. Jotham P. Allds. senator in the New York Legislature now in session, and president of the North American Fish and Game Association, to attend the annual meeting of the assocation at Albany. X. Y., Feb. 12 and 13, and pre sent a paper on the Guide Law and the Hunting License Laws, and Maine's experience with these laws. The United states government is to be represented at this meeting. Dr. i Harnaday of the New York zoological gardens has promised to be present with a paper on the hunting of large game. While it cannot be definitely stated when the new Springfield riiles will be issued to the troops of the National Guard of the State of Maine it is un derstood that the military authorities have reason to believe that riiles will be forthcoming before a great while and probably early in the summer. The rifle is the 1903 model, with 24-ineh bar rel and the latest improvements in the magazine, firing mechanism and sights, and while there has been more or less criticism about the recoil of the rifle it is probably the most power ful military rifle in the world. The following corporations have filed their certificates of organization at the office of the secretary of State: Falmouth Surety and Investment Co., organized at Kittery for the purpose of engaging in investment enterprises, with $50,000 capital stock, of which nothing is paid ir..

And so the victim lets it go oil, day after day, red eyes', swollen fea tures, lassitude, sleeplessness, loss of appetite, the irritating couglt. In itself a cold may be simply un comfortable. In its results it is often fatal. Pneumonia, with its enormous fatality; consumption. wi®i its deadly grip; bronchitis, asthma, these and many ailments are often the direct result of a cold. The patient may have had many colds. They have resulted in nothing serious. But when the system has become weakened by these repeated attacks, when the mucous membranes are in a chronic unhealthy condition, then it is these fatal maladies assert themselves. There is no greater mistake than to neglect a cold. At its first appearance measures should be taken to relieve it. At this season of the year, when coughs and colds are common, Peruna should be kept constantly in the house. At the first symptom this remedy should be taken. It will soothe the mucous membranes, relieve the irrita tion, and the cold will gradually dis appear. That this has been the ex perience of many is proven by the hundreds of grateful letters in out DIED. OXFORD. Denmark—Jan. 10. Mis. i. R. Emery (Roil .’mi. If. ill the home of her uncle. Aaron Welch. FREE TO THE SICK Prominent Physician Gives His Best Prescriptions to Sick People Without Charge. Nearly all diseases or ailments are caused primarily by poor circulation of the blood—no matter whether it is the kidneys, or the heart, or the stom ach, or liver, or whatever organ may lx: affected—poor circulation is the primary cause. A famous physician, after years of study and experiments, has finally dis covered a remedy which if used- in connection with certain other well known drugs, and mixed in correct proportions, will cure the most stub born ailments. Of course the same in gredients are not used In all diseases, and it would require too much space here to give each prescription in de tail, but as there is one basic principle involved in all disease, so there is one basic remedy in all these prescrip tions, namely. Concentrated Decto Compound. This remedy Is, as Us name implies, a concentration of the most valuable agents known to science for stimulating the circulation, thus striking at the root of the evil. The doctor has arranged with the manufacturers of Concentrated Lccto Compound to enclose witti each pack age of their preparation a full series of his original prescriptions in detail, so that any sick person will secure free of charge exactly the same for mula that the doctor would give if one called at his office. The prescriptions include separate formulas for kidney and heart trou bles, stomach and bowel troubles, ma laria and liver troubles, blood and skin diseases, and if you get a one-ounce bottle of Dec to at the drug store, usu ally sold at about 50 cents, you can readily select the proper prescription for your ailment and mix the medicine yourself. A11 ingredients prescribed by the doc- tor are vegetable, and non-poisonous. If your druggist is unable to supply I .veto, send his name on a postal to “Lecto.” 110 Verona avenue, Newark, N. J., and you will be promptly ad vised where it can be secured. W&Stf For Stomach Troubles When there is distress after eating or drinking, or your food doesn’t “set well,” the digestion is deranged and the stomach needs to be toned and strengthened. A natural appetite and a perfect di gestion can be assured and you will enjoy your food if you will get a box of SSeec/iamX and use them according to the simple directions printed on the wrapper. Acute indigestion, lassitude, flatulence, “qualmishness,” and other uncomfortable and distressing sensations after eating, are quickly righted with a dose or two of these little wonder workers for a weak digestion. In all acute forms of stomach trouble Beecham’s Pills Are Wonderfully Effective In boxes 10c. and 23c., with lull directions HONES1 CANDY Is wholesome and good for reople to eat.
