GENERAL SPORTING SEWS OF THE DAT
Our sluggers were beaten by the Cleve
land ball team yesterday at Exposition Park
in a game that
was exceedingly
exciting and v. ell
worth seeing.
There were two
unfortunate
stages in it. One
was in the first
inninc and the
other was in the
last. "Woodcock
was the cauBe of
t first misfor
tune and little
Shugart figured
conspicuously in
the last. The
argument lasted ten inninss and just as
everybody of the 1,000 people predicted the
local players could not win an extra inning
game.
Several mistakes occurred in that unfor
tunate tenth and still the victors could
have been retired without a run had Shu
gart not made one of the most palpable of
errors.
Gave TVoodcock Another Try.
Captain Burns resolved to give "Wood
cock another try, mostly because Smith's
arm was soie The college youth was auite
willing to try again, but in the very first
inning five hits were made ofl his delivery,
Including a home run, and fie runs were
scored. This was too much lor the cranks,
and they yelled, "Take him out." Captain
Burns did this aud sent in Gumbcrt, and
then the cranks jelled "Woodcock, "Wood
cock." That is just a sample ot the strange
kind of sentiment and conflicting notions a
manager of a Pittsburg ball team .has to
contend w lth. "Woodcock did not do as bad
as the record would seem to indicate.
Three of the hits were ot the luckiest and
mot scratchy kind, and the batters just 1
mamcea to reacti nrsi on mem. uut it is
apparent that "Woodcock is a little slow ior
Xcague copinany.
GnraliTt Airaln Did Yry TTclL
Gumbrt pitched a really good game and
it looks as if he would become a good man
with steady practice. Several times he was
tested and showed great nerve and delibera
tion. In the tenth inning he was a little
wild, but altogether he did 'very well, in
deed. The Clevelands arc an excellent team of
plajcrs lull of vim and ginger, but it is
safe to sav that if Gumbert hid pitched the
entire ten innings they would have been
beaten. Cnppy pitched very effectively
after the first inning and he was tolerably
well supported.
The local players started off like winners,
and ther made the hearts of the spectators
glad, ililler got his base on balls and
reached third on Bierbauer's single to cen
ter. Miller scored on Shugart's fly to JIc
Aleer, and Becklev forced Bierbauer out at
second. Parrell next banged out a three
bogsrer to richt center, scoring Becklev, and
Smith's single scored Farrell. That looked
all right, but the visitors did better than
that,
Childs made a single to right and Burkctt
made a lucky scratch hit to the infield.
Davis walked up to the plate and after
taking in the situation he banged the ball
to the left field fence lor a home run. Mc
Aleer's fly was caught hy Corkhill and
then Tebeau and Virtue each made a lucky
scratch hit.
An Error That VTas Costly.
O'Connor knocked a grounder to Tarrell
wliicn was tumbled and Tebeau scored,
Virtue reaching third and O'Connor
Fecond. Virtue scored on Zimmer's fly to
Corkhill and Cuppy struck out
Gumbert went in to piti.h in the second
inning and not a run was made by the op
posing team until the seventh inning. In
the meantime the home players had taken
the lead. They did so in the fifth inning
after two men were out. Bierbauer and
Shusart were the outs and Becklev struck
out but a passed ball allowed him to reach
first Farrell got his base on balls and
then Elmer Smith caused the crowd to
jump aud icll 1 lire: Indians by knocking out
a home run to the left held fence.
In the seventh inning, after Burkett was
out, Davis made a single and stole second.
McAlcer knocked a fly which Smith caught,
and then Iaty Tebeau whacked the ball to
the lelt Cold lence and was put out in try
ing to make a home run of toe hit Smith
made a fine throw to rarrcll and the latter
made just as fine a throw to the plate.
In the tenth inning Dais led off for the
Clevelands with a very lnckey bunt hit
which was safe, Shugart got McAleer's fly
and then Tebeau and Virtue were each sent
to first on ball. Davis vras forced out at
the plate by O'Connor's grounder to Shugart
Zimmcr knocked a grounder to Shugart, a
very easy one, and "Shug" fell all over it
and the game was lost, as Tebeau got home
and Zimmer was sate at first. The score:

THE GHEAT SDBTJEBAK.
How the Sporty Roys sized Things Up on
ttan v of the Rue.
ICew Yobk. Junei7. r.9becfatl The Subur-
ban handicap will he rnn at Sheepshead to-
morrow alternoon, and if the weather
should be fine and there is every reason to
expect that to-day's storm will leave a clear
sk one of the lagest throngs that ever
visited a race course will turn out to see the
best thoionchbreds on this continent con
test for a $25,000 prize. The fact that His
Highness, undouotedly the greatest two-vear-old
out last year and considered in
vtnciblo by his owners this season, is meet
ing such good horses as Montana, Tourna
ment, Major Domo, Locohatchee. Lamp
lighter and Baceland at si disadvantage in
weights will attract genuine sportsmen, who
will hail the bav col: as the liirseofthe
century if he should vanquish Iiib opponents
ut a mile and a quarter. The sreat three-
ear-old is in lare condition, and with
Murphv up, ir.he is beaten, it will Met bo
because ho i not fit to race for a man's life.
His Highness' most dnncerous opponent in
the estimation of the talent will be Montana.
Garrison will ilde the 4-j ear-old son of Ban
Fox and Queen, and tho horse's publio and
private foim this spiing has been so liljrh
that he cannot no overlooked. Raceland
ran so last and thotoni;h in the Nw Yoik
handicap that Ml. Dwyor thinks "old
bones'" chances of victory are s-econd to
none. Peara's follow ets think well of the
little son of Pcssara, and the followeis of
Lamplighter, Picknlckei, Malor Domo, Poet
Scout and Locohatohee ate firm In the belief
that thoir favorites will win the big race.
With such a dlvorsitv of opinion the betting
will be Brisk. His HUhness and' Montana
should be liuhting it out in the homestretch.
The ti nek was fast this evening and this
evening's shower was not heavy enough to
affect it.

to see what damage had been done. Mrs.
Yowler lay on the kitchen floor dead, while
at her feet played her infant child, un
injured by the stroke. The bolt entered
the chimney and came out through the fire
place. The force of the electric fluid must have
been tremendous, as tbe soot bad been torn
from tbe chimnev and scattered ail over the
floor. Mrs? Yowler's face was so blackened
by the soot that she was not recognized
until it was washed away.
The severest thunder storm ever known

Has Suddenly Collapsed.

dropped out of the North Sewlckley cattle
dehorning case veiy suddenly this after
noon, and the defendant, E. E. Hazen, scored
a victory. Henceforth, or until the legisla
ture makes a change in the statute under
which the suit was brought, the farmers of
Beaver county will continue to saw off the
horns of their cattle.
Nearly all day was spent by the court in
hearing testimony, the burden of which -was
that the practice of dehorning was pot only
comparatively painless, but a positive ben
efit to the cattle. After listening to much
testimony. Judge Wickham finally declared
tbat under the statute the Indictment which
charged wanton and ornel treatment of tho
cattle could not be sustained by the evidence,
produced, and iid that if the Jury should
find the defendant guilty he would be
ohlizcd tocrant a new- trial. District At
torney Wickham, therefore, entered a nolle
Eros. Humane Agent O'Brien and L. W.
aton, President of the Humane Society,
who were present, wore evidently much sur
prised and disappointed at the outcome. The
former said that he was undecided as to
w hat he would do.

time a relapse took place.
Mrs. Guthrie called in Dr. Donnelly, of La
trobe, and Dr. H. W. Hitzrot.of McKecsport,
who held a consultation, the result of which
was the discovery that the child was being
given a poisonous ding which was slowly
killing him, but by whom the drug was
given was a mystery. Upon learning this
Mrs Guthrie at onco gave up her country
residence, and with her ohlld went to Mc
Keesport to reside with her sister, Mrs. Bev.
H. D. Darbaker. Under the treatment or
Dr. Hitzrot the child slowly improved, and

WAS IT CiWTION?
Mrs. Smith's Sufferings Vera So Great She
Often Thought She Mmt Die. t
She Had, Lost Flesh Until She Was Re
duced Almost to a Skeleton and Her
Whole Life ltecims Miserable,
Mrs. Frahk Smith, who lived for many
years on the "Southside. this city, but now
living near Nimlck station. Pa., makes an
emphatic statement of her sufferings, nnd
how sbo tried physician after physician, but
found ho relief. She had been almost led to
look upon her case us an incurable one, but
decided to trv the treatment of Drs. Cope
land, Hall and Byers as a last resort.
Said she: "I want to express my gratitude
to you, gentlemen, nnd I want it put Just as
forcible as you pan possibly make it. I want
It in the newspapers, so that others who may
suffer as I did mav read of my experience
with Drs. Copeland, Hall and Byers, and
learn where to And relief. For I know what
has been done forme can be done lor others
"My trouble came on about six or seven
years ago. It bexau flrst with a cold in the
head, followed by another, and then another,
until my nose became continually stopped
up. and the pains in the front and especially
in the back of my head became so severe
and the annoyance so great that life became
almost a burden in itself.
"The mucous dropping in my throat
seemed to poison it, and set up a condition
of ulceration that made it so sore and irrita
ble I cnnld shallow nothing but liquid
food, and tha only with great difficulty. I
suffered from severe pains in my ch- st. and
under my shoulder blades. I coughed in
cessantly and lost so much flesh that my
friends, as well as myself, were apprehen
sive of the gravest results and often won
dered how long It would last.
"My appetite was gone, and if I ever did
feel hungry, the siht of food seemed to
nauseate me. At times I had a bloated
feeling about my stomach, and at others,
especially after eating, there seemed to be a
heavy weight there. My bowels were con
stipated and my whole system seemed to bo
gradually going to pieces.
"I tried doctors and doctors, and found no
relief. I had been reading or the many
cures made by Drs. Copeland, Hall and
Byers. At first, I doubted and hesitated,
but finally I made up my mind that if so
much could be done for others, something,
at least, might he done for me. I called on
them at their offices, 6J Sixth avenue. Thev
told me I would get well, and I placed
myself under their treatment, find the result
has been truly wonderful. At flrst my
progress was not so noticeable, but after a
little time I could breathe through my nose,
later my senses of smell returned, aud the
pains in my bead gi adually disappeared, my
throat became well, and with this, my ap
petite came back, my cough and chest pains
disappeared andnow I eat well, sleep welt,
have gained 50 pounds in flesh, and am
heavier, and feel better than I have for a
number of years. In tact, I am as well as
I ever was in my Hie. I cannnr. say too
much for these gentlemen and will be glad
to verify this statement to anyone who will
call at 'my home on Love avenue, Nimlck
Station, Pa."
SLOWLY STARVING TO DEATH.
This Was the Condition of Mrs. Mary Uor
man Previous to Consulting Drs. Cope
land, Hall and Byers Now She la Well
and Strong nud Doing Household Work
for a Family or Eight,
"It almost borders on the miraculous the
success Drs. Copeland, Hall and Byers had
in my case," says Mrs. Mary Gorman, who
resides on Sawyer street. Eighteenth ward.
"I hndbeen troubled a long time with ter
rible neuralgic pains in my head and face,
ulcerated mouth and deranged stomach.
The inside of my mouth was all covered
with ulcers, my appetite was poor and I
had not eaten any solid food for weeks
before consulting them, on account
ot my mouth and stomach. I vomited
everything I ate, could not even retain beef
tea or milk on mv stomach. I was very
much reduced in flesh.
"I could not He down for the smothering
sensation cansed by the accumulation of gas
in my stomach and bowels. It also caused
shortness of breath, palpitation and flutter--ing
of heart, cold hands and feet, etc., etc;
"I tried everything 1 could bear of, but
found no relief. Reading three months ago
of the lemarkable cure of Mrs. .Lewis Zol
linger, whose symptoms were identical with
mine, excepting the mouth trouble, I deter
mined to consult Drs. Copeland, Vllall and
Byers, and place myself under their
treatment. My hopes were more
than realized, for to-day I am a well
woman aud doing the housework for
a family of eUht, where three months
ago some one had to wait on me. You can
not make this statement too strong, for the
half has not beon told, and cannot be
realized. I will gladly tell any one who may
call upon me what Drs. Copeland, Hall and
Byers have done for me."
NEURALGIC OR SICK HEADACHE.
A Very Common but Painful Affection
Eislly Cared by Drs. Copeland, Hall &
Byers' Treatment.
Many persons suffer from neuralgic or sick
headache and are constantly taking p itent
headache powders for relief of same. These
powders are dangerous as the principal in
gredient is often antlpyrineor antilebrine,
drugs which should never be used excepting
under directions of a physician, on account
or their sedative action on tbe heart, Drs.
Copeland, Hall and Byers' treatment is
mild antl safe and permanently cures these
distressing head symptoms wnich nearly al
wavs aie associated with catarrh.
"I had pains over the forehead and
thronqh temples nearly all the time," says
Miss Sarah Irwin, of Mansfield, Pa., "and a
clogging np of the nostrils, with dropping
of mucus into the throat whic'n kept mo
hawking and spitting to expel, a raw and
irritated condition of the throat, with nil
the head symptoms we usually read ot as
accompanying this affection. Now I am
happv to say that I am treed of all these
annoying and distressing symptoms and I
cheerfully recommend Drs. Copeland, Hall
and Byers' treatment to all my friends and
tno puuiic."
