Hers A CHEW
THAT WILL
CHEER YOU UP
"American Navy" Has Ho
Equal For Tobacco Taste
FULL OF CHOICE FLAVOR
The fact that the chew is the
best way to use tobacco is proved
by the refreshing effect you get
from it.
The sweet, flavory juices,
which a chew of American Navy
brings directly against your
tongue, give complete tobacco sat
isfaction. That accounts for the
pleasure and comfort American
Navy gives you.
American Navy is made from
the same kind of leaf used in good
cigars. But instead of being loose
"cuttings," it is whole long leaf,
pressed into clean, pure plugs.
Try American Navy. You'll be
surprised to see what a splendid
quality it is, and what a big cut
you get f«r your money. Your
dealer has it—sc and 10c cut* ,
HARRISBURG WINS
TWO FROM ALBANY
Shut Out Visitors in First Game
12-0; Second Contest
Close Fight
Harrtetrurg handed Albany two
more defeats yesterday afternoon,
winning both ends of t&e double
header at Island Park. 13 to 0, and 3
to 2.
Both teams played fast ball, and
despite the one-sided score in the
first fray, Albany kept things moving
for Manager Blair's boys. Brown,
Cook, Reed and Bold were the heavy
hitters In the opening contest, but
every Harrlsburg player except Har
rison hit safely. The twelve runs re
sulted from a fusillade of hits, and
were scored in the first, fourth, fifth
| and eighth innings. Extra base hits
helped pile up the runs in these in
nings.
Umpire Johnson again exercised his
authority and sent Captain Blair to
the bench when the latter remarked
about a close decision.
The second game was close and Al
bany furnished a little excitement
when they tied the score in the fourth
inning at two runs. The Harrlsburg
boys came back at them, however, and
sent across a run in their half, which
later proved to be the winning one of
the game.

The fight starts at 5 o'clock.
Dillon, the 169-pound Hercules 'who ,
conquered Frank Moran so easily a |
few weeks ago in New York and then
jumped to Dewty, Okla., to knock out
the veteran heavyweight, Jim Flynn,
in a couple of rounds a few days later,
is in the best of condition and still the
confident warrior of old.
Levinsky is also sure he will stand oft"
Dillon and gain tho decision on points, i
The blond Hebrew realizes his only
chance of victory is to stand Dillon off!
and win on points, while Dillon ts sure ,
of finishing the former Philadelphian.

composed of Elks, although sporting
1 men from all parts of the East are i
flocking into town for the meeting,
