“I’m Ashamed
To go anywhere with my face in this
condition" is the expression of a very
natural feeling. To a lieautiful woman
an eruption on the face is the greatest of
calamities her very lieauty seeming to
increase the disfigurement. Ninety-
eight times in every hundred eruptions
are cured by Dr. Pierce’s < kjdcn Medical
Discovery and the skin recovers its
maiden bloom nnd softness. "Golden
Medical Discovery ” is a medicine which
acts directly on the blood purifying it
increasing its quantity and its rich-
ness. Eruptions blotches pimples etc.
are but surface signs of the corrupt
blood current underneath. "Dii(»very"
cleanses the blood and so cleanses
the skin.
• For about one year and a half my face wm
verv badly broken out" writes Silas Carrie
Adams of i>* West Main St.. Batttecreek. Mich.
"I spent a great deal of money with doctors and

At last I read one of your advertise-
ments. and obtained a bottle of Dr. Fir rev's
Golden Medical Inacovery. before 1 had taken
one bottle of this medicine I noticed a change

The regular weekly meeting of the
City league will lie he LI tonight.
Mathewson the Great ami the Pnily
Nichola were the pitchers at New Aork
yesterday.
Thirteen inuings were played in Bos-
ton yc-lerday iu which the American
leagtieni wiped up the Athletics.
Freeland proved n puzzle and Shrew
port got only two hits yesterday. St
Mulkey yielded ten scattered hit* and
the Pelicans won.
The Reds won a twelve-inning game
from the Cardinals at St. Diuto yester-
day with Archie Ktimmcl pitchin;:
against Eddie Murphy.
The Ivys have a leader who watches
every (mint of the game and if they
will follow hi< style of play they will
win nine times out of ten.
Lack of pnqier coaching was largely
responsible for the Battery’s defeat Sup-
day. The soldier l»ys were too anx-
ious to score when on the liases.
Gothamites saw a ten-inning gam'
yesterday with a row of goose eggs fo?
nine innings when Dick Cooley sent in
three runs for Boston with a double
cushion shot.
Herman Gtovsvr'* return fo the ivy
infield was hailed with delight. He start-
ed in with a aenaational stop nt short
in which he made an easy out of wliat
looked like a base hit.
Ten earned runs in one game is not
a had record. That is what the Ivys
and the-soldier boys got. It shows that
both teams hit the liall and that there
was some clean lidding with men on the
bases.
In a double header at Cleveland yes-
terday Earl Mopre shut Chicago out
with one hit in the fiiwt game which
was the champions' first shut out of the
season. In the second game Chicago
hammered Harley McNeil for twenty-
two hits and won easy.
Grandstand umpires are always on
hand. In fact they arc |iart of the
game. But the judge of play is the
mail ou|he dianiopd. ' Horaces the playa
as they come up ami renders this de-
visions at'cordipgly Kut becanpe they

you. play all the harder and if’yoti are

Jake Herzog is making a record with
the stick. Two doubles’and a pair of
singles out of live limes'up is not bid.
Barry overlooked a bet when he failed
to tag Newkirk who ran into Hill'd at
a dead heat on a drive to that corner.
He fielded the hall cleanly but tluew
wild to first and gave -He: opposition
a good opening.
Each succeeding game is increasing iu
interest. The second series is drawing
to a close and there is sonic lively spec-
ulation now oh to who will play the
Katys for the cup. The I. AG. N.
team is at present in the best position
for that opportunity but the Ivvs are
still iu the race with strong hopes of
coming in at the home stretch

HALLAHAN HELD UP.
POLICE PREVENTED HIM COM
PLETING HIS JOURNEY.
He Wanted to Teach Religion on Rio
Grande But Hln Pistol Got Him in
Jail.
John Hallahan arrived over tlie I. &
G. N. this morning and no sooner had
he Alighted from the train than he wao
placed under arrest by Police Officer
Beilstein ami it ehnrge of carrying a
pistol was lodged against him.
Hallahan stated that he came from
New York City where lie had read the
Bible ami had started to gp forth into
the world and scatter religion among
the people along the Rio Grande river.
He hud intended to buy a horse upon
arriving here he said but l»ad the mis-
fortune of having sixty dollars stolen
from him la*t night near Austin.
Judge Kroeger upon beholding him in
thc Corporation evurt this morning woe
of the opinion that Hallahan needed a
wash ami thought he had come in on
the bumpers. The Judge asked him
what he was <b>ing with n pistol in his
possession to which Hallahan replied:
“1 was going to the Rio Grande." Halla-
han evidently has the impression that
the neighliorhood around tlie Rio Grande
to unsafe without a revolver.
Hallahan was very anxious to leave
the city and proilwcil three silver dollars
and a watch anil said lie could get out
of the citv with them.
But Judge Kroeger thought it’best to
hold him for awhile as he had come all
the way from the great metropolis of
New York ami must therefore be quite
fatigued.
Hallahan will lie held by the authori-
ties for furt her investigation regund-
ing a robbery that wa« committee on
the train hist niglit msvr Austin m which
a Dr. Wither* was rphbcd of quite a
large sum of momw.
Hallahan was rather talkative and
stated Hint lie liked Texas very well
as far as he ha*l gone already. ।

WAIL STREET DOMINATED.
ALMOGT ENTIRELY BY GREAT
STEEL STRIKE.
Capital Views the Situation Seriously.
If Labor Is Solidified Into One Great
Trust There Will Be a Wholesale
Migration of CapitJl.
New York August 13.—Wall street
h;|* been almost entirely dominated by
the great steel strike the aleci stock*
themelves having discounted Ike influ-
ence more perhaps than the general mar-
ket. This sto»w» how seriously capital
vtow* the question at issue. I'lw strug-
gle i* upt for wages or hours. The men
are generally well employed ami art
raining good wages; heuce there is lit-
tle suffi ring exev|4 what i* self-inflicted.
ami the striker* have thus far received
lit Hi; public sympathy except from the
radical dements of trade* unionism. The
strikers wi’h to comia-l the steel man-
agement to employ union men at some
of it* mill* whubher it will or no. It
aim* to solidify labor into a trust of
the mightiest and most tyrannical Mjft
and deprive employer* of their rhfhtful
liberty to employ union or non-union la-
bor *» tliey see tit: to compel non-union |
mi ll to join fort** or lose their ms upa-
tion. In short it aims to do nothing
le** than run the mills themselves and
a**umc a dktatnrship more tyrannical
and dangmoii* -than tnat ever conceived
by any eombination of capital. There
maw lie some trade combinations which
possess objectionable feature* but none
c managers have given thought to
such unjust measure* as the Amalga-
mat ml association is attempting.
The right of lidior to organize is free-
ly ndiuitted. and labor leaders must learn
that cni|doyers have the-right to utilize
union or non-union labor as they see tit.
It i* a mistake to My the life of union-
i*m i* at stake in this struggle; should
the strike fail as it probably will
unions will exist as before but their
attempt tn wrest control from the own-
er* uf property must be defeated or the
country would face a crisis and depres-
sion too dangerous to 'be contemplated.
Labor is sadly in need of wise and cap-
able leader*. It has suffered gricv-
. ously from reckless and malicious dem-
agogue*. men who for their own end*
preferred to stir up envy and
strife to seeking fair play nnd
' mutual respect between employ-
ier and employe. tlf tote labor . ha*

was-to'yaml reproach. l*it they have net
Iwen tuen of n high order of to;*iness or
executive ability. Usually they are son-
| timcntaltot* and signally unfitted by na-
-1 ture Ao leiel ju matters so complex and
irtihiicol a! tIKHe *uiroum|ing modern
industry. Bt(ikes rarely succeeds they
■I aceonqilish b na than any other method.
। In the vast majority of cases they in-
jure rather than benefit the workingman
aikl labor’* chief progress in the way
of wagos and hours bu* been through the
I path of rational nogutiattou. If there
' were move hihor. leader* with the abili*
ty and wisdom of Chief Arthur of the
। Engineers' Brotlu rhuuiL. our industrial
i history would oontajn fcwtir dark spots
; than it does: and belter retottons v<«ild>
’ exist between cnjiital and labor. The
more hanmonious Hicsq Jiecmie the bet-
ter Jor the country at large and public
opinion should denounce those who em-
bitter the differences between employer
and enqdoyc. Both sides would gain
by working on a basis of mutual rspect
and fair play.
The stock market continues in a
waiting attitude. Summer quiet pre-
vail* everywhere and until the vacation
period to over and general business re-
slimes it* accustomed swing there is
likely to be little.beyond a good trading

I send you by this mail a ‘‘Manila
Times" which I think will interest you.
It gives an account of the inauguration
of Governor Taft. The Governor's speech
is especially interesting and will give
yon a very good idea of tlie enormous
strides that have liven made out here to
the past six months. The Islands are
now entirely pacified with the exception
of Malvar in Southern Luzon and Luu-
bati Samur and 1 think in all ju ibaii-
ility they will be in before you get this.
I thank you for tho regularity with
■which you are sending me my paper it
is wv main consolation. Verv siue rely
