The cold weather has little effect in keeping the South End members away from the clubhouse. Last Sunday morn- ing over thirty-five members rowed away | from the boathouse in barges, skiffs and shells. A crew, composed of Joe Lyons, T.

The South new handball court will be an attractive addition to the club. Although unfinished, it gives signs of surpassing any court in this Such James C.

MESSENGERS CAME T0 THE RESCUE A Fair and Belated Western Union Operator Who Was Insulted. Hinchman | Three Gallant Boys Thrashed the Ruffian and Drove ° {im Away. Three messenger boys who work in the Western Unicn Telegraph office on Market street, under the Grand Hotel, performed a gallant act a few nights ago, when they drubbed a ruffian who had insulted a lady at the crossing op- posite the office. The victim of the insult is herself a | Western Union operator, nd was on | her way to take the last Valencla street | car when accosted by the man. Fear- ing for her safety she went to the office oppesite Montgomery street, and asked the service of a messenger to escort her to her car. After she had left the office with the boy the other attaches learned of the difficulty, and three of the youngsters, none over 16 years of age, started out to investigate. They found the loafer standing on the ccrner, and promptly | attacked him. Finding himself out- | numbered, the fellow took to his heels | and ran down Second street to Mission, | where he was overtaken by the three | messengers and hammered into a state | of complete subjection. The boys modestly decline to tell any- | thing of their adventure as knight er- | rants, except by significant winks, and | the fair operator has not been bothered | since. —_———— The Wasp This Week.

Gentlemen: Baco-Curo has certainly done all you claim for it in my case. I have ab- solutely no desire for the narcotic,in fact when_anyone is smoking where I am, the odor is unbearable to me. Your remedy is wonderful, and I have recommended its use to several other soldiers and they are going to giveit a trial. I think that if I ever get to using tobacco again it will be learning | the habit over again. I have not the least desire for tobacco and I regard myself as en- tirely cured Yours truly CHRIS. JENSEN 6th Cavalry, Troop D, Fort Robinson, Neb, The wonderful part of a_cure from BACO- CURO is that it removes every trace of nico. | tine from the system, leaving it as free from the narcotic as it was before the first smoke or chew.
