This is for teams of six. and the conditions are unique, in that they provide for a skir mlsh run and 10 shots rapid-fire at 200 yards.

Wilcox to Send His Handsome Fair of Blacks, and They Are Expected to Repeat i . Honors Won Last Year. Portland will be well represented at the Seattle Horse Show, which will be held September 2, 3 and 4, a number of the most prominent owners of fine horses here having; signified their In tention of making entries. Theodore a. Wilcox has taken the lead in announc ing that he will exhibit, and his hand some pair of blacks, Hindoo Prince and Black Chief, will doubtless repeat me honors they won In their former home last season. Mr. Wilcox will enter in the tandem, Victoria and Brougham classes, for all of which his horses are esDeciallv well adapted. Sanford Hirsch will send his magnifi cent pair of chestnuts If he can get them In satisfactory condition for ex hibltlon, one of them having been slightly out of form during the re cent heated spell. This animal will be up to its usual standard In another day, however, and with a pair of this class and the perfect appointments which Mr. Hirsch has provided, he should be a winner In each of the several classes In which he will make entry. An effort will be made to secure the F. W. Leadbetter pair of blacks which he recently purchased In Los Angeles. These animals are former Chicago show winners, and can compete with anything they will meet in the Coast exhibitions, Mr. Leadbetter also has a pair he is driving tandem, and Intends using them in the sporting tandem class. Scott Brooke has not yet returned from a vacation trip and his plans regarding the entry of his new pair of bays are not known. The spirited chestnut pair recently purchased by Mrs. C. H. Lewis will be a decided acquisition to the Se attle show, and Mr. Kramer is using every effort to have them entered. The Seattle show will be an outdoor affair this year and there will be op pbrtunity to exhibit show horses to the very best advantage. The stabling ac commodations are ideal and every com fort and accommodation will be ac corded the horses and men. Seattle made such a generous showing at the Portland show last Fall, and is expected to do so again this year, that the Hunt Club is urging all owners of fine horses here to make an effort to re spond by taking their animals over for the September event. It Is unfortunate that the show occurs so early in 'the season, for many of the most prominent sportsmen and society people are away on vacation trips and will not return In time to get their horses in condition for exhibition. Samuel E. Kramer, the New York whip, who is here assisting President McGrath in preparing for the Portland show, will go to Seattle tomorrow night and remain until after that show, act ing as judge of appointments and equipment. Mr. Kramer is authorized to accept Seattle entries and those con templating making entries should con sult him without delay. i Work for Injunction Reform. CHICAGO, Aug. 22.

NEW YORK. Aug. 22. Captain J. B. Watt, of the Lusltania. has handed In his "Hello, Jones, what's the trouble?" "I'm all In, down and out. Got a-pain in my back, my stomach Is all out of gear, and I haven't hardly enough energy to breathe." "Why don't you see a doctor?" "I've been to a half dozen already, but here I am In the same fix. Saw my family doctor first, and he gave me a lot of dope to take.' One compound was to build up my stomach. Another was a stimulant to make me 'brace up,' and the last was a nerve medicine to stop the pain in my back. Well, the dope made my stomach worse than ever. Even the smell was nauseating, and the horrible taste it left in my mouth was worse than the stomach trouble. "The stimulant gave me energy for a while, but after I had taken It for a few days I had to double the dose to get the same effect, and it soon failed to do even that. "The nerve medicine re- . lleved all pain, but, like the stimulant, It, too, lost Its power. "After that I concluded my doctor didn't know his busi ness, and I went to several others, but with the same re- suit. "I was determined to find some permanent relief, so I called on Dr. Van Soakem; he has the biggest reputation of any, doctor In town, you know. He looked me over and then wrote out a pre scription for some dope. It was the rankest stuff I have ever taken, and it certainly put me on the sick list for keeps. What hurt me almost as much as his medicine was Dr. Van Soakem's bill. The size of it was enough to make a man sick. He didn't waste any time on me, either. I'm done with doctors and drugs for all time." "Now, just wait a minute. I know & without drugs. That Is Dr. Hall, of Seattle. He uses electricity. I've met a number of people whom he has cured, and they say his treatment Is all right. Dr. Hall has -a -free book which explains all about his treat ment and methods. Call or write for that book, read It over, and then use your own Judgment. Good day, ' Jones; I hope you will be better next time I see you." . . Acting upon his friend's advice, I sent book explaining his treatment. This book Is one of the most interesting works I have ever read. It is beauti fully illustrated, and deals with human way. There is none of that professional rot for which most doctors' literature Is noted. It is written in plain language and the Information it contains Is worth a great deal to any sufferer. . After reading his book, I called upon I found to be an excellent specimen of health. A glance at this strong, robust man was an Inspiration to me, so I said: "You must wear an Electro-Vigor, doctor?" "I do," was his reply. "The doctor who Is afraid to take his own medicine is not to be trusted." Dr. Hall showed me letters of praise of people, whom he had cured with his One read as follows; When I Promise a Cure You May Rely Upon It That I Will Cure You The fear that you could not be cured may have deterred you from taking honest treat ment.
