ST. LOUIS 6 Chicago
If the weather does not interfere this
afternoon there will be quite a big attrac
tion at Exposition Park. The Cleveland
team of ball players, Spiders, or whatever
title they may be known by, wilt be there
to do battle with our sluggers. Those
Cleveland fellows are in first place in the
pennant race and have, indeed, very strong
pennant winning aspirations, and nothing
but real good thumping defeats and lots of
them will knock these aspirations out of
the Cleveland fellows' heads. Lately they
have been carrying everything before them
and they come here to-day ieeling fully as
sured that they have little to do but go to
the park and fatten their average.
Leaders Are Often Oar Victims.
But leaders and gay people are invaria
bly those whom our sluggers nail as their
prey. Tail-enders of the lowest degree and
ol the most despised order can wallop our
chieftains at will, but oh! "What sweet re
venge is reaped by knocking aspiring
champions into back seats.
The Cleveland team is playing great ball
and is without doubt the best team the
Forest City has ever had. They are strong
in pitchers, strong in hitters and excellent
in fielding. The home team is also playing
well with the exception of a weakness in
the pitcher's box almost every other day.
A good pitcher is due to-day, and, there
fore, a good game may be looked for. Man
ager Buckenberger will not decide defi
nitely until to-day whether be will pitch
Esper or Ehret The batting -order ot the
two teams will likely be as iollows:

The Sludgers at Home Again.
The local team returned home from their
Western trip yesterday and were all in
very good spirits. Manager Buckenberger
stated the team was in very good playing
condition with the exception of Baldwin,
who was sadly off in his pitching. Mark
had a conference with the club officials yes
terday morning, and, as a result, he was
given a vacation without pay for about two
weeks to go to Canada and "get into pitch
ing form.
Baldwin made the request for the vaca
tion, claiming that while he felt in excel
lent condition he was not in pitching form
and thonght a rest might do him good. The
club has no idea whatever ot releasing him
and he certainly is not deliberately doing
anything to force his release. He has been
doing his best, and Manager Buckenberger
is thorougly convinced ot this. He is sim
ply out of form, just as many good pitchers
have been and will be again, and all the
abuse in the world will not make him any
better. He is as sorry for his bad showing
as anybody can possibly be, and he will
donbtless be the greatest sufierer.
"When, the team were at Chicago, it is
stated that Burns tried to poison Earrell's
mind against the club by telling him that
the club President had tried to trade him
for almost any player that could be had.
This has dissatished Earrell considerably,
but it should not do so, because the state
ment is not true. Parrell is held in high
esteem among Pittsburg baseball patrons,
and he is certainly playing a great game;
in fact it would be very difficult to find
Farrell's equal.

VOBDY'S W0EST TBI?.
Der Boss Manager Talks Sadly and About
Releasing JlmmyGalrin.
After the St. Louis Browns returned borne
Yon der Ahe said to a reporter:
"It was the most disastrous trip I have
ever had during my Ion; career in baseball.
The cluD played Just good enough ball to
get beat right along. I can't blame the men,
however, for losing games. The umpires
had it In tor them, and they pot no close de
cisions. The homo clubs were favored al
ways. I and Captain Gore telegraphed
finally from Cleveland to President Nice
Young to see that we were given a fair deal.
We told him that Snyder had defrauded us,
and that his honesty as an umpire would
bear official investigation. It was not right
to let Snyder umpire at Cleveland. That is
bis old club, oi which he was formerly
captain and manager.
"My team baB been in bad luck otherwise.
Several of the men have been sick or
crippled during the trip. We are Just get
ting in shape again, and hope to make a bet
ter showing.
"IieleasedGalvin ana Plnknev. I have
nothing to say against them. They have
played their best, but their work has not
been good enough to satisfy me, and I must
try to improve my club. For the present
Crooks will play third base, Brodie second
and Caruthers return to right field. Hawke,
the new pitcher, I think, will turnout all
right. I am still after Buck Ewing and one
of the best pitchers in the East. I would
like also to get Tony Mullaue, and if the
Cincinnati will let him go, I teel suie I can
sign him. It is not a question of money with
me. I am willing to spend my money freely
for good men, but I must feel sure that those
I get are better than those I have before I
will make any change."

SULLIVAN IS ALL RIGHT.
No Troth in the Stories Tb'at He Has
Broken His Leg.
Canoe Place Ira, Aug. a, Special. There
is absolutely no truth In the rumor now
current to the effect that Sullivan has
broken down in bis training, that he is
drinking, that he has quarreled with his
trainer, Phil Casey that he has broken his
leg, or that Trainer James Robinson, of the
Manhattan Athletic Clnb, is to supersede
Casey as a trainer. Sullivan has been under
such close surveillance by half a dozen men
that it would have been Impossible for him1
to commit any breach of discipline without
being seen.
The feature yesterday at this place
was the arrival or Miss C Tutliill
from Bridgeport. She is a tall, handsome
young woman, about 80 years old. She
came here to take a tramp with Sullivan,
whioli she did this morning' in fine style,
covering eight miles In one nour and a half.
A thunder storm came up while she was on
the road, which thoroughly drenched her.
She was clad in one of Sullivan's sweaters,
tbo cook's shoes and anold skirt borrowed
tromoneof the inmates of the hotel. Sul
livan and Jaok Ashton had their mus
taches removed this morning. Sullivan says
the mustache is a nuisance." The oiiampion
is now down to 216LJ pounds. A loss of 6
pounds will put him in fit condition to meet
Corbett. f
The Keystone Koad Race To-Day.
This afternoon at 4 o'clock the Keystone's
15-mile road race will take place, and while
it is expected that good time will be made
the roads are notln as good condition as was
anticipated. Secretary McGowin rode over
the coarse during the week and found that
at Economy the gutters had been dug out
ana their contents strewn upon the road,
making rough riding for a considerable dis
tance. Then at Leetsdale the road masters
have strewn gravel over what was an ex
cellent stretch of hard-surfaced road. Of
course the gravel will make the road a great
deal better later on, but at present the sur
face is too rough for rapid riding.
Most of the riders will go down to Sewick
ley on the 2 o'clock train this afternoon and
ride fiom there to Hayesvllle. but those
who go to witness the start and finish will
leave on the 2:15 train, which stops at Hayes
ville, and will return a lew minutes after 5
o'clock. If the weather holds good there
will be a large crowd in attendance.

was decided in a five day's programme. A
fresh' breeze dried out the track to-day. It
was at its best, and when the nineteenth

than 15,000 people knew they bad seen the
best harness racing ever witnessed on this
or any other track.
From the start before noon to the finish
this evening, it was record breaking and
record making. Every trotter or pacer that
won heats except Vitello had to chip some
thing off his mark. Every heat was below
2:20 and every finish was fought out stub
bornly. The verdicts in most instances
going by heads or half lengths. The fastest
and heaviest betting on the circuit was on
the 2:23 trot. Instant was backed at 5200
against the field at evens as fast as the sheet
writers could scribble the cards. It is not
often that money is lost so quickly on a trot
as the Instant crowd lost theirs to-day.
Bobrt J Makes a Fast Mile.
It just took two minutes to burn up their
money from the time the mare broke
near the quarter pole to the drop
of the red flag in front of her as
Vrrginia Evans dashed under the
wire. The performance of flying Jib and
Kobert J in the 2:27 pace gives Buffalo a
record or two that other tracks would like
to have. It was the fastest class race ever
paced and the 2:09 of Bobert J in the
third heat knocks the chip off the 4-year-old
record and is equaled only by Hal
Pointer's mile in the match with Direct.
It was really a duel between the Eastern
and "Western side-wheeler for the first
corking heat in 2:1L Allen Lowe fought
pluckiiv to have his share of the purse, but
a break in the iourth heat settled his
chance.
Fpeed Increased Mile After Mile.
The exoitement was at fever heat when
mile after mile was put in at increasing
speed, and when Bobert J beat Jib by a
nose, 2:09X. the Buffalo people yelled with
delight Neither won by more than half a
length until the deciding heat, when Bobert
J made a misstep near the quarter, and be
fore Geers could catch him pursuit was
useless.
Nightingale would have won under his
class in straight heats, but she picked up a
nail while scoring for the first. This made
her break going away and Addie I chipped
several seconds off her record. Virginia
Evans won her fast heat to a bicycle snlkey
and the race winner, Belle Wara, put in her
fast miles to a similar machine.
There is very little chance for a continu
ance to-morrow, as rain was falling when
the last heat was decided to-day. All the
stakes are disposed of, so it is probable the
meeting will be called ofE

all the best of it. Prince Peyton, 6 to 1, made
a runaway race or the opening event, Glor
iana, the 9 to 5 favorite, finishing second.
Zampost, 7 to 10 favorite for the second race,
was unable to raise a gallop and finished in
the ruck, the Adalgesa colt, 5 to 2, taking
first money from Trcadaway by a head.
Lyrist, Bergen up, was pounded from 5 to 1
to even money in the betting in the third,
but Wilson Taylor, 8 to 1, and ridden by a
stable boy named Eeynolds, beat the favor
ite a short bead in tho post. Wiliio L.
looked well on paper and the pioneers
backed him. Lizzie, 5 to 7, outfooted him
from the start and won driving, by a length.
Bear Guard, 1 to 1, and Prince Peyton's
stanlo companion took the fifth race in a
gallop. PodUo, the favorite took the run
nlngln third place. Mcintosh, 8 to 1, then
made it six straight defeats or favorites by
wlnnlntr the last from Fidelo, DToey, the 7 to
10 favorite, being third. Summaries:

There will be an Important meeting of the Pitts-,
burg Association Football Clnb at George Tann's
this evening.
The Tiffin. O.. Gun Club will hold a shooting
tournament on the 7th and 8th of September. 1892.
Alargeatt'-adance lsexpected. The grounds are
among the finest In tbe State, and easy of access.
For programmes address the secretary.
Go back there, you 1"' yelled Slarter E.
Corrlganto Overton yesterday: "yon tan' t come
any of your monkey work and get a running start
on me." Overton was tiding Mr. Corrlgan's horse
Shoshone, but instead o: getting the best of the
start got the worst of It, and was almost tbe last to
get away. Inter-Ocean.
The general opinion among oarsmen who at
tended the National Regatta, according to one or
them, is that the scheme adopted this year or hav
ing a turn In the course was a failure. The Idea
was for the benefit of the spectators, but there
wasn't enough of the latter present to pay for the
lumrjer In the observation stand.
ON September 11. 1871. the Ward Brothers, of
Cornwall, won the four-oared championship at
Saratoga. On that date this year thev will cele
brate iy having a contest between three double
scull crews, consisting of Hank Ward, Ellis Ward,
formerlr trainer of the University of Pennsylva
nia's crews; Gil Ward, Josh Ward and their
nephews, Dan and Ed.
It does not look as If the Manhattan Athletic
Club's senior elght-oared shell crew, which con
sists of the old Unlversltv or Pennsylvania men.
will do any more rowing this season. Some of the
men have gone out or town, and they have not
done any rowing since their return from Saratoga.
It comes out now that one of this crew was com
pletely gone at the mile and a quarter at Saratoga
and conld not row. so that seven men rowed the
last quarter of a mile.

"I had been troubled with my bead a long
time," says Mr. Hagan, "which I know now
came from repeated colds from exposure at
my work. No one can understand what
tortures I endured with the pain in my head
at times. I often felt I would go crazy with
it. I had terrible neuralgic pains all through
my head, and, although my nostrils were
perfectly clear and 1 could breathe well
through them, .they often felt dry and
parched, the same as my throat, tongue and
mouth.
"My stomach also became affected to snob,
an extent that Host mv appetite and what
little I ate caused pain and a heavy feeling,
with bloating and belching up of sour gas.
Drs. Copeland, Hall and Byers, whom I con
sulted, explained to me tnat all these
troubles came from neglected colds, causln?
a catarrhal inflammation or the parts, and
promised a cure if I would attend faithfully
to taking my medicine, but said I would
probably have to continue under treatment
three or four months.
Mr. George Hagan, Clinton Bow, W. Carson Si.
"1 have just completed my first month's
treatment and can say that I am entirely
cured. I haven't a pain or ache about me,
and I reel as well as I ever did, bnt to make
sure I am going to continue under treat
ment another month. I take pleasure in
recommending Drs. Copeland, Hall and
Byers to all persons afflicted as I was, as I
know they understand their business tbor-
ougniy."
Different Forms of Catarrh.
The aDovo case or Mr. Hagan clearly de
scribes tbe form of catarrh known as dry
catarrh or sneezing catarrh. Like many
other patients, because his nostrils were not
filled with mucus, it was difficult to make
him understand that all his symptoms were
due to catarrh.
Dry catarrh, or a dry and parched condi
tion of the mucus lining membrane of nose
and throat is generally the form of catarrh
tnat causes the agonizing neuralgic head
aches both in the front and back portion of
the head, with a stinging, aching pain in the
throat. The mouth is often parched and dry
and tongue fissured and sore. Tbe
muscles of the back part ol the neck
often feel sore and stiff and pains
flit at times through the chest to shoulder
blade. So accustomed are Drs. Copeland,
Hall and Byers to find an Irritable condi
tion of the Pack part of the throat inpa
tients complaining of intense pain in tbe
back of the bead with desire to draw tbe
bead backward, that they have come to ac
cept this condition of the throat as the
cause of the exhausting occipital headaches
nervous peoplo often suffer with. They ex
plain it by the theory that the pain is re
flected by the nerves concerned in tbe
pharyngeal inflammation, and that this
theory is correct is borne out by the fact
that as soon as this Irritation is reduced by
their treatment the headaches cease.
This Inflammation olten extends up
ward Into tbe ears and eyes, and down
ward into the lungs and stomach, cansing a
long train of symptoms that cannot be ex
plained any otber way than by accepting
this plain truth.
A BOLI MOVE.
Putting the Practice of Medicine on a
Business-Like Basin.
Since Drs. Copeland, Hall and Byers de
cided one month ago to treat all diseases
and all patients lor $5 a month, medicine
included, their already large practice has
almost donbled, proving that their efforts to
render medical assistance to suffering hu
manity at reasonable rates has been appre
ciated. Heretofoie this rate applied only to
catarrhal troubles and kindred ailments.
This small sum brings the services of a
physician within the reach of every one and
does away with expensive drug bills. There
is no excuse now for a sufferer to silently
endure his disease for fear of the expense at
tached to consulting a specialist.
All skin and blood diseases, such as ec
zema, hives, blotches, pimples, acne, ring
worm, tetter, salt rheum, chronic ulcers,
etc., are included in the $5 rate.
All kidney, bladder and rectal troubles,
such as diabetes, Bright's, gravel, piles,
fissnre, flstnla, etc., are also treated for $5 a
month, medicine included.
Rheumatism, neuralgia, lumbago, scrof
ula, dyspepsia, chronic diarrlicoa, dvsentery,
constipation, dropsy, liver complniht, jaun
dice, glandular tumors, excessive accumu
lation of flesh, eta, are successfully treated
for $5 a month.
Drs. Copeland, Hall and Byers are the)
originators of tbe $5 a month treatment, or
the system or reducing tbe practice or med
icine to a business-like basU; and though
many may imitate their style of advertis
ing, the thorough, conscientious and skill
ful method of their treatment can be ap
proached by none.
HEADACHE FOB EIGHT TEAK?.
The Case of Mr. Conrad Sanders, a Steel
"Worker of Jones Si Langhllns' Mills,
Residing at 2716 Shelly Street, South
side. "I suffered from catarrhal headache for
eight years," said Mr. Sanders, "but re
cently it grew so serious I could not endure
It longer. At times I wus entirely unfit for
work. No one who does not understand the
ravages that this disease can make on the
system can appreciate how thoroughly j
broken down and miserable I was. Under
Drs. Copeland, Hall & Byers' treatment my
head is clear and I feel like another man. I
didn't know that medicine could work snob,
a change in a person. I am more than
pleasedwltb the result."
