Another Attempt W ill lie Made to Form a Club in i:arhnndalc. Base ball Is not yet dead In this city and another attempt- will probably be made toward establishing a club to rep resent this city In the stnte league next season. . The team lust season w as nol fully upppt-eciated. us it will be if it is now given up. The trouble about the franchise need not cause Hiiy more trouble, as ussur Alices have been made that a new fran chise fur the club can be had from the state league, and any trouble with the Traction couciany can be averted ny having the games played at Alumni park instcud of Anthracite park. (This arrangement would he better In mine respects, as the situation of Alum ni park Is better than Anthracite, situ ated as It is between Jorniyn und Our londule -it would bring people from both places, while Archbald would also send a number. Then as mere Is no hill overlooking the park the many dead-heads would be avoided. The ex penses of the club would probably be about 13.444 and half of this has already been subscribed by citizens. There will probably be another canvass made soon with, the view of having the games played at Alumni park. 1M ACI D I ND1.K HAM..

A well-known cham pion bicyclist heartily commends it. Fred Titus, of the Spaulding Racing Team says, " I have been taking Bovinine while training, am surprised at the strength and renewed vigor I derived from its use. It is grand to take after hard riding, as it very soon re stores the life you lose at such times." Bovinine is strictly., and solely a food stimulant, prepared by a special cold process from lean, raw beef. Its great blood and flesh creating qualities combined with the ease with which it is digested, makes it invaluable as a restorer of depleted tisues, and as trength maintainer in all cases of exhaus tion, whether caused by disease or over-exertion.
