George H. Mayr, for twenty years a leading Chicago druggist, cured himself and many of his friends of stomach, liver and intestinal troubles of years’ standing by this treatment, and so suc- cessful was the remedy he devised that it has since been placed in the hands of druggists all over the country, who have sold thousands of bottles. Though absolutely harmless, the ef- fect of the medicine is sufficient to con- vince any one of its femarkable effect- {veness, and within 24 hours the sufferer feels like a new person.

We must look easy to the city officials for up until a few months ago they didn’'t take us seriously, but there is one thing vou will notice that after they get in a mixup with us they don't linger around waiting for the second one and all the fights ana arguments we have had within the vear started, but one, this being with the democratic administration. At the present time we haven't got an enemy so tonight I am going to hand out boosts instead of Kknocks. But our motto will still be “A Square Deal or Fight” and the sooner a few swell headed city officials get it into their heads the better it will be for themselves. “We are getting along in the ways of politics as fast as possible.

In the first two bouts it was very difficult to tell which fighter won. There was nothing to it but a am bang affair, but in the last and star bout of the evening there was big doings. This bout was Joe Ryan and Jimmy Murray well known pugilists of this city. In this bout Ryan clearly outclassed his opponent but although quite one-sided it was a “hummer” and kept the crowd in a pitch of excitement.
