Rev. H. W. Tate, 920 Lincoln Avenue, Walnut Hills, Cinoinnati, Ohio, writes: “For several years I have been troubled with a peculiar spasmodic affection Of tie throat. It would seize me suddenly aud for a few minutes I would be un able to speak audibly, and my breath would be greatly interfered with. I would be obliged to gasp for breath. “I finally concluded that it was some catarrhal affection which probably ex cited the spasm. It interfered with my vocation as a preacher, attacking me occasionally in the pulpit. “I had heard so much about Peruna as a catarrh remedy that I determined to try it. After taking two bottles, my trouble has disappeared. I feel sure that Feruna has greatly benefited me.” Rev. P. E. Swanstrom, Swedish Baptist Pastor, Box 228, Grantsburg, Wis., writes that from the use of Peruna he is perfectly well, entirely cured of chronic diarrhea and catarrh. Peruna In Tablet Form.

The following resolutions were adopted: The Christian Civic League of Maine has continuously and vigorously opposed resubmission on the ground that the demand for resubmission originated with the saloon, was press ed chiefly by the saloon, and its sym pathizers. and that enforcement—not resubtnission—was demanded by the people. We now note with satisfaction that the recent political events in our State, including utterances at the recent Re publican State convention, and the ex pression of the people at the polls in the last two elections, justify our posi tion and proclaim the defeat of re suhmission in Maine. We desire to express our belief in the Sturgis law; to affirm our confi dence in its efficiency, and to declare that Republican consistency and the interest of good government demand the retention of this law until some more efficient substitute is provided. Resolved, that we oppose any modi fication in our laws regarding public amusements on Sunday. i- CONDENSED DISPATCHES.

Rideout of Houlton has what la considered one of the best pair of GOSSIP AND COMMENT OF THE MAINE GRIDIRON Interest in college football circles now centers in next Saturday’s game at Orono between Bowdoin and U. of M. That will close the college season and it will be a battle royal. Both teams have been defeated and neither of them, nor Bates or Colby for that matter, can have a clean claim on the 1908 championship, but they will fight for the victory with no less desperation. Both have special rea sons for wanting their game. Bowdoin is anxious to wipe out the disgrace of last Saturday’s slump and to close its season with a victory over a strong rival. Maine is anxious to win be cause the Bowdoin game is the big game of its schedule toward which all its plans and preparations are made. Moreover, it has never yet defeated Bowdoin on its home field at Orono and it has the memory of that 34 to 5 defeat at Brunswick a year ago fresh in mind, it will bo a hard game and one worth seeing. Five men on the Bowdoin eleven and four on the U. of M. eleven will play their last college game next Saturday. The Bowdoin players who graduate next June are Oapt. MeDade, center. Burton, quarterback, Manter, right halfback, Gastonguay, fullback, and Hughes, right end. The members of ’09 on the U. of M. team are Capt. White, right tackle,* Ham, right guard, Black, center, and Ray left tackle. The Lewiston Sun’s figures of the Bates-Bowdoin game show that dur I Ing the game Bates rushed the ball 166 yards and Bowdoin 169; on for ward passes Bates ga ined no tiling, but lost 15 yards on the only attempt it made, while Bowdoin made three forward passes, all successful, netting 33 yards; on onside kicks Bates gained 40 yards and Bowdoin 17; Bates ran back punts for 79 yards and Bow'doln for 32 yards; Bates punted for 398 yards and Bowdoin for 190; I Bates was penalized 165 yards and I Bowdoin 15. The weights of the U. of M. men who formed the first line-up in the Colby game is as follows: H. Cooke, le, 154; Ray. It, 182; White, lg, 167; Black, c; 200; Ham, rg; 175; Bearce, rt, 180; King, re, 160; A. Cook, qb, 133; McHale, lhb, 157; Parker, rhb, 168; Cobb, fb, 162. The Bangor and Portland boys are working hard this week for their second game which will be played next Saturday at Portland, Bangor won the first game at Bangor 6 to 0, but Portland insists it was given a raw- deal by the officials and proposes to do things next Saturday. Colby will lose from its eleven by graduation Trask the fullback, Kim ball. left end, Gilpatrick, left tackle, and McClellan, right guard. Capt. Goode is a Junior and will probably be selected to lead the team again next fall. It is said that Cumming's bad record for slugging in four games this season, especially that final exhibition at Brunswick when he struck Referee Fultz squarely in the face, will cost him the captaincy at Bates which might otherwise have been his next season. He is one of the most popu lar fellows in college and is a brilliant player, but his chronic inability to control his temper in a game has made his teammates, not to mention the college authorities, realize that he is hardly fitted for the captaincy. Adelbert Andrews the tackle will probably be selected, it is said by colts In Aroostook county. They art Allies, one anil one-half years old, t)j Lord Arleigh and are so perfectly matched they cannot be told apart. John E. Durgie of Windsor has a pet in the shape of a very pert look ing, well shaped and nice limbed coll three months old. He is out of Mr Durgie's roan mare by Clip Anderson and was sired by A. Rogers Knight of Malta. George E. Ball of Dexter has re cently sold his 5-year-old driving horse, Willie H. Burnette, to Carl C. Hay den of Dexter. This horse was by Burdette, 2:21>4, out of Pert by Odd mark, sire of Lillian Oddmark, 2.15'/i. Mr. Hayden has In this horse as nice a gentleman’s driver as any one could ask for. He is 1000 pounds, upheaded and has a great action. BATES COLLEGE. Glee Club Meets—College Tea Thurs day—Athletic Meeting Friday Night.

Rates men. He was put out of the Bowdoln game for slugging, but it was his first offense anti he has the lull confidence of his fellow players. Says the Lewiston Sun: “What has been the matter with the Bates team this season is the question. The material has certainly been there and if the team had played the game like it did last Saturday, neither Colby nor Maine could have won.” At last the Fort McKinley soldier boys have won a game, though they had to go to Boston to do it. After being defeated by large scores by all of the Maine colleges and twice by Hebron, they played the Fort Warren eleven in Boston harbor last Saturday and won 11 to C. Among the Maine school games scheduled for next Saturday are Bangor vs. Portland at Portland; Westbrook Seminary vs. Berwick Academy at Berwick; Bar Harbor vs. Brewer at Bar Harbor; Skowhegan vs. Oak Grove at Vassalboro; Hebron vs. Naval Reserves at Portland.

"They brought along a chap who never saw any part of the game and he is entitled to a medal for the man ner in which he performed his part of the afternoon’s program. He stood on the rail of the grandstand and armed with a mighty megaphone, served as cheer-leader for the lads from the big school. In the mad rush which followed the close of the game, the cheer leader’s name and identity were lost forever, but he is a star. He stood with his back to the field and kept the atmosphere hot with the yell which the boys brought along. Tlie cheering was practically continu ous and Maine drowned the plaintive ditty of Colby.” This is the tribute paid by the football writer of the Bangor News regarding the Maine cheering section in the Colby game. Says the Lewiston Sun: "Many appear to still believe that Halliday was the cause of Bates losing the Colby game. In justice to Halliday it should be stated that while the player was put out of the game by him in his capacity of umpire, that the pen alty and giving the ball to Colby was the work of the referee.” The Sunday and Monday morning papers are publishing the Statement that Kent’s Hill forfeited its game of Saturday to Portland High school by a score of 1 to 0. Kent's Hill takes ex ceptions to this report. At the very end of the game a dispute arose over a question of time. Both timekeepers agreed that there was one minute to piay. From this point Portland rushed the ball for three downs. The referee blew the whistle and announced that time was up and the game at an end. The Portland timekeeper came on the field and declared there was a half minute yet to play. Kent’s Hill's time keeper declared there was not. Neith er timekeeper was provided with a stop watch. Kent’s Hill’s man kept the time accurately on paper, while Port land's man was attempting to keep it mentally. The game having been de clares at an end and Kent’s Hill hav ing the proof of time on her side and her willingness to show the proof, which would not ,be listened too, gave the Kent’s Hill team every right to the game, nnd a score of 5 to 0. As the Kent’s Hill team had scored in the first half Kent’s Hill claims the game T> to 0. She is willing to ask by what authority the referee declared the game forfeited to Portland. Kent’s Hill asks only for the fair thing and is willing to abide by the decision by an impartial committee appointed to settle the dispute. Tn this spirit of fair play will Portland High reply? the schooiier. Her cost was $1.r>0,000. The craft was christened with flowers by Mrs. A. L. Fuller and Fannie and Paul,, the two children of Wm. F. Palmer. REVIVAL SERVICES Being Held With Success at West Mt. Vernon Church. West Mt.

FOOTBALL

BOWDOIN WORKING HARD. Philosophical Over Slump Which Cost the Bates Game. Brunswick, Me., Xov. 10.—The entire Bowdoin team reported Monday afternoon and hard practice was be gun for the game with the University of Maine which will be played at Orono next Saturday. That game will no doubt be the hardest which Bowdoin has played this season. The team all recognize the fact that each of the other Maine colleges make special efforts to defeat the Bowdoin team and each regards the Bowdoin game as the big game of its schedule. No excuses are offered for the de feat of the team by Bates Saturday. The students are philosophical about the matter, be'ieving in the old saying that every football team has at least one time in a season when it takes a slump and they think Saturday was Bowdoin’s day for slumping. The Bowdoin team did not play the snappy game which it has been playing and which it is capable of playing. The rest of the week will he devoted to secret practice. There will be no overconfidence next Saturday. A big crowd of sup porters will go with tile team to Orono. Coach McClave has not intimated that there will be any changes in the line-up for the next game. It was re garded as an encouraging sign that not only was the first team on hand this afternoon, but the second team and a number of the substitute play ers. The Bowdoin spirit is in evi dence and every thing will be done to make a good showing in the contest against Maine. If Bowdoin should win from Maine she will be all ready to play off a tie with Colby. The feeling here is that it would be more satisfactory to every one to have the championship clearly settled than to have a tie between the two teams. It is well understood here that the Colby players, students and supporters believe that Bowdoin could be easily defeated in another contest, but that does not terrify the Bowdoin men. They are perfectly willing to try conclusions again and let the best team win. If Maine wins from Bowdoin, it is hoped that the former will play off the tie which would then be with Colby. It would then be settled to every one’s satisfaction. Quite a number of the football fol lowers seem to believe that Colby has the strongest and fastest aggregation of any of the Maine colleges. This may or may not be so. It is largely a matter of opinion among the partisans of the different colleges. Oak Grove S. 0; Coburn Classical 0. Vassalbo.o, Me., Nov. 10.—(Special).— The Coburn Classical Institute team troni Waterville Monday played a return same with Oak Grove, which proved to De a very even contest. In the former game between the two teams Coburn won by a score of 10 to 0, but Monday the snap py work of Oak Grove prevented their heavy opponents from scoring In the first half neither side was within their opponents’ 25-yard line, although most of the playing was done in Coburn’s ter ritory. In this half Oak Grove made good use of the onside kick, while Co burn was very successful with the for ward pass. Coburn’s heavy line showed its weakness when attempting punts. One wns blocked by Perry and on a second attempt Towle was through the line and on his man before be could get away with his punt. The defence of the home team was decidedly strong and the attack was the fiercest and best that has been seen this year. Everybody tackled like fiends and scarcely ever missed a man. To the nervy tackling of Hussey, the midget quarterback, is due the honor of twice preventing a touchdown. Burgess, Hayford and Vanderhoop played a strong defensive game and Stanley at center several times got away from the line and brought down the runner in the open field. The Grove team followed the ball hard, and whenever the crowd e’ear ed away after a fumble the ball was usu ally found in their posession. In the sec ond half Coburn started with a rush and by two long runs by iMacGhee and Har low brought the ball to Oak Grove’s 12 yard line, only to lose it on downs. Oak Grove kicked out of danger, and again MacGhee went around the end for 30 yards, but the ball was called hack for offside play. There was more or less pen alizing throughout the game. Coburn being the heaviest loser. The summary: OAK GROVE COPIRN Burgess, re. Brown, rt Webber, rg _ Stanley, e Perkins.
