The annual outing of the First Ward Republican club was held Sat- urday afternoon in Weigand’s grove and was a success from every point of view. Caterer Eppler served one of his finest fish “feeds,” many call- ing for a second “helping.” The base- ball clubs of the First and Second wards played and the former with “Bert” Loomis going at his best was victorious by a score of 11 to 9. There were many scintillating plays, chief of which was one by Alderman Jester, when he grabbed the eluslve sphere, while lying prone upon his back. Klambt twirled for the Second war- ders in a creditable manner. A game of quoits between Mayor George A. Quigley and Howard M. Steele at- tracted no little attention. The form- er's unerring aim was too much for his next legislature running mate, who was defeated by a large score. Chief William J. Rawlings remind- ed the crowd of “Silk” O’oLughlin, as he called “Strike tuh” in the ball game and he conducted it in a man- ner that would do credit to Thomas J. Lynch. Practically all the wards in the city were represented at the outing, the Third by Representative I. W. Schultz and Chief Rawlings and the Fourth by Howard M. Steele, all of whom were invited to change their residence to the First. All in all, the affair reflects credit on the committee in charge for it was a complete suc- cess. SUB MITK STATIONS. Demand So Gr New Places Will Be Opened. The patronage at the Burritt school milk station has been so large and steady that it has been found neces- sary to open two new sub-stations and owners of stores have consented to their use free of charge. Curran’s on Broad street will be one of these new stations and the other will be in Smith's store at the corner of Clark and North streets. Thursdays when the mothers bring their children to the station to be weighed they will be given a ticket for milk and instead of coming to the central station for their supply, need only to apply with the ticket at either of the new stations. At present there are seventy-six babies being cared for by the station. Once a week the youngsters are welghed and in many cases the r sults are surprising. The Milk Sta- tlon association is very grateful to the owners for the use of their space and it will mean much in the con- duct of the work BELL-ANS Absolutely Removes Indigestion.

Meskill in police court this morning to plead not guilty to a charge of breach of the peace. The girl was arrested by Officer Axel Carl- <on yesterday afternoon when, it was elieged, she appeared at the Soader- gren home to demand her child and “'started things when her, Judge Meskill gave scme good advice and judgment. : The Sodergren family was projected into the public’s eve Saturday when two squabbles ensued over the cus- tody of the child. Mrs, Sodergren had Leen caring for the baby and took it down strect Saturday morning. While she was in the Mohican Market she left the little one outside in the car- riage and the mother, Miss Horan, came along and took it. Then fol- lowed a squabble which was referred te the police. At the time howevew, the mother kept the child. In the afternoon the child’s mother visited the depot where she met Sader- gren and another young woman. The two women engaged in a brawl and Sodergren was also mixed up in it, to the amusement of the lazge crowd and the annoyance of Officer Frank English. The affair came to a head yesterday when the girl de- manded her child. Mrs, Sodergren stated cared for the baby since six months old and it twa vears of age. Now, mother Insists on he does not think s care for it. M also testified mother. Baby Cries for Mother, When Miss Haran was called to the stand the little baby, sitting quietly fn Mrs. Sodergren’s lap, suddenly set up a loud wail of “Maa-ma, I want my maa-ma’ until it was necessary to take the child from the court room. Miss Horan said she was not married and that Sodergren had refused to make her his wife. She said that far a time she supported the baby and then expected him to. “Now I want my baby and I'm going to have it too,” she declared. The girl further testified that Sodergren once secured a marriage license and would have married her only his mother wouldn't let him because she has “gat a girl for him with lots of money.” Judge Meskill, upon learning that the child’s mother is not married ad- vised her to see Charity Commmis- sioner Hart at once and have him get Carporation Counsel Cooper to compel Sodergren to contribute towards the baby's support. nd can't I have my queried the young mother. “I have no right to pass judgment on who shall have the custady of the child,” stated Judge Meskill, “‘except to state that under the conditions of ite birth the child is wholly yours.” Lively Scrap at Laundry. There was a lively scrap at Ben- nett’s Union Laundry Saturday after- noon between the praprietor, J. B Pennett and Arthur Pl her of 88 Prospect St., an emplaye, which was continued in court today when Mr. Bennett appeared to prosccute him for assault. The case was ane in which there were many mitigating circum- stances and Judge Mesklll imposed the small fine of $5 on Pleucher. Mr. Bennett explained that Pleucher been employed by him and v tc have left his employ Saturday. When he came to balance up his ac- counts there was some money that he had not callected and, according to the terms of his employment, it was due Mr. Bennett. Pleucher had a bond but it was so badly worn that Mr. Bennett thought it valueless so he rdered his bookkeeper ta credit Fleucher with 6 he had turnca in and then said to credit hi with $30, which was the two w pay due him. Mr. Bennett — e BRIP AND NEURASTHENA There is a form of neurasthenia that follows the grip. Doctors call it “‘post- frippnl” nearasthenia. One of the orenost medical authorities of New York city in a lecture in the interna- tional clinics, said: ‘‘Broadly speaking, every victim of the grip will suffer from post-grippal neurasthenia also. Lowering of ner- vous tone with increased irritability is the most striking effect of the disease, Janguor of mind "and body, disturbed, fitful sleep and vague pains in the head and elsewhere. The treatment calls for rest and a tonic. ’ Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills, a non-alco- holic tonic, are {mrriculnrly suited for building up the blood and strengthen- ing the nerves after an attack of the izrlp, The rich, red blood expels the ingering germs from the system and transforms despondent grip victims in- to cheerful, healthy, happy men and ‘women. i If you have had the grip get a box of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills now from the nearest drug store and begin the treatment at once.
