That it is furthest from its intention, in the least cr in any conceivable manner, to cur tail a single courtesy due, and which has always been and always will be cheerfully and unreservedly extended.” Mrs. E. E. Davis, of San Miguel, Cal. says: “I am trying in a measure to repay the manufacturers of Chamber lain’s Cough Remedy for the great good their remedy has done me. ~ For years 1 was a constant sufferer from weak lungs and bronchial asthma. My rest at night was disturbed by a backing cough, so that I felt miserable the greater part of the time. Mnny remedies recom mended by friends were tried, none of which proved suitable to my case. I did not experience any beneficial results until I began taking Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. After two bottles of the large size have been used I am pleased to state, my health is better than it has been for years. The soreness has left my lungs and chest and I can breathe easily. It has done me so much good that I want all who are suffering from lung troubles, as I was, to give it a trial.” For sale by P. C. Corrigan Druggist. .__ { Letter List.

THEY FEEL SORE Last week Tub Frontibr said the Coleridge ball team was composed of a “gentlemanly lot of fellows.” This week we hardly know what to think of them. On their way home they stopped at Creighton and told the boys there that they would be sorry if they came to O’Neill to play ball. "Why,” one of them said, “when we were there they used us frightfully. It is impossible to win on their grounds. They Just stole Sunday’s game from us; the crowd sur ged out on the diamond and intimidated the umpire so that he gave us the worst of it right along, and then the small boys guyed us fearfully and some of the O’Neill men were ungontlomanly enough to bet money on their home team. O, but it's a rocky town!” Now of course the Coleridge boys, .like all who visit O’Neill, were treated in a most hospitable manner, and had nothing of which to complain. But when they went home they found it necessary to explain their defeat in someway and no doubt thought it safest to attribute it to the umpire and the spectators. The Coleridge Blade, in speaking of Sunday’s game, puts it this way: “Robbery" explains the defeat of the home team in this game. All who agreed to yell for O’Neill were admitted free, while a prominent business man, DeYarman, distributed five dollars among them. The Coleridire players were called disgusting and profane names, both on the grounds and streets after the game. Starks scored the first run in the game in the third and thtfy called him out for smiling ns he came over the home plate. Stone made a three-bagger in the next inning and Was sent to the bench for hitting the ball so hard. It really is a ahame that O'Neill has a set of boys who will applaud the hoiue team. They ehould shout for the visi tors, always. And poor Stonel "called out for hitting the ball so hard.” He didn't do a thing but cut second and no protest was entered when he wag prop erly put out for so doing. And there is Smiling Starks! Yes, he was called out, but let Sandy Griswold tell the story: To the Sporting Editor of the 13ee: In umpiring the Sunday game between O’Neil) and Coleridge, a peculiar situa tion arose, and I would like your opin ion as to the justness of the decision made. The case was like this: The bases were all occupied, one man out, a coacher was at first and third, the bat ter struck out, but the catcher failed to hold the ball and threw it to first before the umpire declared the batsman out. The batsman, who had run to first, in the confusion that followed, ran across the diamond to third and with the as sistance of the coacher pused the base runner on third over the home plate. I called the baserunner .on third out on the grounds of interference. Was it right? P. S. The man on third had left the base and gone nearly over to the bench and then returned to the base, from which be was rescued by the men as aforementioned.—Clyde King. Ans. The decision was all right. This decision from Griswold removes the last prop from the Coleridge claim of unfair treatment, und they well merit the criticism they have received for crying over milk spilt when they themselves kicked the bucket. CBEIOHTOH TAXES THE GAME. The ball game between Creighton and O’Neill at the home grounds last Sunday afternoon was disastrous to our lightweights. Creighton carried off the honors but she was not entitled to them. While the visitors made ten hits and O'Neill but six, our hoys outplayed them all aronnd and should, and would have won but for a couple of costly errors. The game, however, was a pretty one and those who paid their money to see it were well satisfied with the exhibition.
