of Victory," "We're Marching to

an example of faith and determina

1 here is comfort In the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-
Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills every
wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the
back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part
of the urinary passage. It corrects inability
to hold v/ater and scalding pain in passing
ft, or bad effects following use of liquor,
wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to go often
during the day.and to get up many times
during the night. The mild and the extra
ordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon
realised. It stands the highest for its won
derful cures of the most distressing cases.

St. Elmo Base Ball Club.
The members of the St. Elmo base
ball club held a meeting at the Con
tinental Hose House last evening to
organize for the summer. This club
put up good ball last year and will
make a much better showing this sea
son. Enough money has been sub
scribed to keep the club going and a
number of games have already been
arranged. The club will endeavor to
arrange a series with the "Old Tim
ers" and if they should succeed, the
Danville "fans" will see some good
sport. A play ground lias been se
cured from the Reading Iron Company
near Mausdaleaud will be putin good
coudition. Among other clubs schedul
ed tojplay the St. Elmo team are the
Springfield and Slianiokin nines.
The following players are on the
team: Catcher, John Buck and Harry
Sterner; pitchers, John McCloud,

John Robinson's Great Exposition.
Probably the musl colossal as well
as the most nervy amusement venture
of the day is that inaugurated this
season by the management of the John
Robinson show—a venture requiring
an expenditure so enormous that a
statement of the amount would scarce
ly be credited by the general reader.
We allude to the production on a scale
of magnitude aud opulent splendor
never precedented to tfie new Biblical
spectacle of Solomon, His Temple anil
the of Sheba.a spectacle prolific
in grand scenic effect, impressive iu
pomp and pageantry, realistic iu its
reproductions of the patriarchal era,
sacred in its Biblical associations, and
entrancing iu the bal lets, poses, march -
iugs and groupings. The visit of the
Queeu of Sheba to King Solomon's
court with her immense and richly
costumed retinue, the Judgment of
Solomon, the sacrifices iu the Temple,
Solomon's seven hundred Wives, the
grand Processional Pageant to meet
and welcome Sheba's lovely queeu,
the Walls and City of Jerusalem, the
Inner Court of Solomon's Temple, the
great Throne of Ivory, the Sacrificial
Ceremonies, the Sacied Ark of the
Covenant, the bewitching ballets of
lovely Cresset Girls, and myriad lea
lures that cannot be given iu detail,
are the attractions this wondrous
spectacle presents. With such a de
sirable feature added to the admirable
Circus and vast Menagerie, and the
Royal Roman Hippodrome, the many
canvasses, spacious as they are,should
and will bet packed from center to

Hut as a Christian minister it is my
duty to ti-ll voti that in this great

distinctions are eternal—eternal and

the result of shot and shell and spear

In the great army of the dead there

is absolutely predetermined. It' yon
enter that army with any soul disease
whatever, you will fall and the tall

The final battles ot a war are the
deciding battles. In the final battles
of life you will be assailed by tempta
tions, before which lofty characters
have fallen w ill you gain the victory'/
The above is Rev. ("leaver's excell
ent discourse in part. it is regretted
that want of space makes it impossible
to present the Memorial sermon in
I
Bard Bros'. Show.
The average tent show, as a rule,
devotes more expense to providing a
gaudy and attractive street parade to
attract the public than in the real
show, for which they pay their money
to see. The famous Hard Hros , who
exhibit here on June Ist and 2nd
afternoon and evening will prove an
exception to this rule. While, of
course,a street parade will he given
and an attractive one at that —it will
he the tent show that will appeal to
the public and please I hem. It will
positively prove one of the highest
class and most satisfactory tent shows
for the money ever given in Danville
and remaining bete two da)s, as the
Hards will, the truth of this assertion
can he amply tested. The fame of the
Hards is so wide spread, their act so
marvelous that the connection id' the
Brothers with this enterprise is a
guarantee of the excellence of the en
tire exhibition. The Hards will not,
by any means, monopolize attention
in the arenic exhibition. The fatuous
Duffy, Kedcay and Dully trio of bar
performers, the Carlysle Dog and
Pony Show, the Hassan Ali troupe
of Arabs, tie* wonderful Carter sisters
arielists are hut a few id those who
will take part in the exhibition. The
Hani Hros. are the sole owners of this
amusement enterprise, and the fact
speaks volumes in behalf of a clean,
wholesome and withal marvelous show
the cheapest,the best and most attric
tive ever seen here outside of the "big
ones" ami all for the diminutive
prices of io and "JO cents. The 1(1 cent
price i«. of course, for the children,
the higher price for adults. The triek
iug ponies, ridden by boys selected from
the audience, and the funnv clowns
will provide plenty of laughter. The
entire show will he bright and new
from start to tinish.a boon to the pub
lic who have been many times deceiv
ed by cheap, worthless exhibitions,
advertised in big type lor what they
are not. Remember the Hards date
here, and be prepared for the best in

CAREER OF C. DRYDEN
BASE-BALL HUMORIST
North American's Star Sport
ing Writer Has Been De
scribing the Game
Since I BNII.
STARTED IN THE WEST
Has Recti 1»y Turns Sailor,
Angler, Iron Moulder
and War Corr
espondent
Among the special writers who give
The North American sporting depart
ment its distinct ion none is better known
than < ,'iiarles Dryden.
Mr. Dryden has been called the j
George Aile of base-ball. Ilis humor is
as fresh and spontaneous as that of the
famous author of Fables in Slang. Ilis
iniinitiahle report of Base-hall games
are entirely characteristic. Nobody;
writes like him, nobody gets the same 1
infection, twists and turns of merri
ment, and none of bis imitators vas suc
ceeded in reproducing the entirely un- i
forced effects. For the hist thirteen'
years Dryden lias classed by himself in j
this particular branch of newspaper
writting.
In liss'.t lie made his first essay as a j
base-ball wit. This was in Chicago.
He wrote up a game in imitation of the j
stilted archaic phrase of Bible lan-j
gnage
Scored Instant Ilit.
It scored an instant hit.and in a short
time all the prominent papers of the
West were bidding for his services. For
seven years he stayed West, changing
between San Francisco anil Tocouia.
In IM'.MI when W. I! Hearst bought the
New York Journal, lie secured the ser
vices of Dryden. When lie had been I
less than a year in the met ropolis he had
i his memorial quarrel with Andrew
I Freedman. lie was shut out of the
| New York grounds, but lie kept up a
j long-distance lire of raiftry on the eccen
tric owner of the Giants and kept not
' only New York but the entire country
j convulsed by his clever quips.
In lit to The North American took a
■ notion that it wanted Dryden to round
| out the strong stall. Hearst was averse
to parting with his crach sporting writ
i er, and made him exceptional offers to
i stay.
But the proprietor of the Journal
was out bill, and Dryden came to Phila
delphia. He came back in 1!»0I, and is
now under contract for the present sea
I son liHCi.
If, id Wide Experience.
.Mr. Dryden is a new-paper writer of
wide experience. He lias had a varied
career, having from time to time been a
sailor. an iron moulder, fisherman and
war corresjN>inlent. He represented a
San Francisco paper in Samoa when the
rival kings were fighting for a throne.
The other branches of sports are look
ed after by an able corps of specialist.
A particular effect is made to get the
j fullest reports of amateur base-ball
games.
t in opening days and important events
staff writers and photographers are sent
from theoftice.aud the counts art- cover
ed with the same core that is given to
reports of major league games.
