i A THE MORNING STAR, WILMINGTON, N. C. THURSDAY, MARCH 8, 1 91 7. THREE PORT 5 STAGE DOUBLE BILL Aberff and Bee 11 Mw Be Put on A 4u;vllary Match to Hanon-Roaa Melee Friday. Nlarltt ' Wilmington wrestling . fans - may be treated to a double , bill Friday night when v hook up and Ed. Aberg, "the human scissors", locks horns with Fred Beell, of Cowpens, S. C. Aberg arrived in the city yesterday looking after Hanson's ccalp tut ne must first show the local fans what he has to recommend him. V This is in strict compliance with the determination of the local promotors plan to use only men of established re putations as drawing cards'-, here In the future. Beell and Aberg will prob ably be put on as an auxiliary match before the biff fellows come on. Beell met Hanson here last week and put up a bum showing. ' He asked for a return match but Fritz informed him that he would have to show the goods vpfore he got another chance. There fore, Mr. Beell and Mr. Aberg may make a riffle at entering the charmed circle Friday night. After battling for an hour and twen ty minutes in Charlotte Tuesday night. Con Albright, of Greenville, S. C, caught Pink Gardner, of Charlotte, with a cloth nolo and slammed him to the mat witn such force that he was rendered unconscious f or 10 minutes and was dazed for some time after re gaining his consciousness. " This was the second of a series of three matches between the -two stars for a purse of $500. The first match was won by Gardner and the deciding contest will be staged in Greenville tomorrow night. One or both of these men are likely to appear in Wilming ton as an opponent to Fritz Hanson at an early date. Both have recently earned decisions over the local man,, and Hanson is 'de termined that he will regain his laurels from them after he disposes of Jack Ross and Johnny Daniels, who are just now "the coming attractions at Voolvin Hall. Ross is billed to appear Friday night and the chances are that Daniels will be along early during the coming week. , Hatty Masuka, a shifty subject of the Mikado, is also anxious to get a shot at Hanson and he, too, may join the all-star aggregation that are to invade Wilmington during the coming months. - Fritz is working out daily at the Y. M. C. A. and . is rapidly regaining the form that he had early in . the season before he got in bad from long train rides and loss of sleep. It was while in this condition that he lost' to both Al bright and Gardner. Later he nominal ly won a bout from Gardner, but un der the referee's ruling, the dontest was .declared a draw. ir?v:--. - . Joe Turner has expressed a desire to come here and negotiations are un derway to arrange the match. Aberg was a caller at The Star office last night and brought the informaion that he was here for the express pur pose of licking Fritz Hanson. He says he is the partner of the famous Waino Katonen, and is ready to meet all com ers at his weight, 155 pounds. Among the men whom he says he has disposed of are Jorgenson, Dan Larkin, Flodine and Herbert Hartley, the lat ter three times within an hour.. He al so claims a victory over Ed. O'Connell, former instructor of wrestling at Yale I'niversity. NEW BERX XOT INTERESTED IX AX EAST CAROLINA LEAGUE Xew Bern, March 7. Talk of reviv ing the old Eastern Carolina baseball league is being heard by local fans but, s in the past few years, they are pay ing but little attention to it as far as any active part that New Bern would take in the revivication of "that! "unruly infant." A few years ago New Bern was right ready to put forth a little of the giving fluid. Several thousand dol lars for this purpose had been sub scribed and plans for the completion of the necessary details were under way. Right at the crucial moment two of jne towns backed out and then and erf New Bernians lost all interest in fe league and formed a city organiza j'On which has been giving entire sat :;iactlon and it is more than likely that "J win furnish about all the ball amg that will be seen here during iae summer month a - - Hobnail signs Contract. todaStn iIarch 7.

Those From South Dyingr by Hundreds in Philadelphia (Philadelphia Dispatch) More than 700 of the 20,000 Southern colored persons who came to this city within the last three months, over4 taxing, housing facilities, are dying with pneumonia and tuberculosis. More than 1,000 are ill with the two diseases and 2,000 are in distress of various kinds. 'v i These figures are contained in a re4 port made to Director Krusen by phy sicians appointed by him to investi gate the conditions of these people. Many of the cases are discovered too late to be cured. Weather conditions to which the colored people are not ac4 climated,' overcrowded houses, lack of sanitation and proper nourishment are the causes given for the conditions. j Of all cases of illness among them which were inspected by the physicl4 ans 60 per cent are suffering with pneu- monia and tuberculosis and 70 per cent of those affected are dying. The Doug lass and Mercy hospitals, the two ' col ored institutions of the city have eve ry bed filled with patients and others constantly arriving must now be car-: ed for by other institutions. Men, women and children who walk into the out-patient departments of these hospitals asking for relief are found to have, developed active cases. In the Douglas Hospital are now 25 patients, of whom 19 or 20 are expect ed to die. In the Mercy Hospital are ten cases of whom seven are expected to die. - ' ' ! Despite the conditions, scores of oth er Southern colored people continue to arrive in the city daily, and the problem has become pne of the most serious of its kind that the city has had to deal with in years. I ' . .i WINTER PARK SCHOOL WON j ORTH MILLIONS II But Could Not Buy Bread So Goes the Story Like.the Man at Klondike, Who Died of Starvation, with His Hut Full of Gold Many Die Yearly, with Means of Salvation at Hand, Were They i But Able to Use Them. Physicians the world over have known of and believed in the virtues of cod liver-oil. Tftey have, alas, also realized its drawbacks and. the impossi bility of administering Sit where it would do good. Doctors have seen hundreds of , people ..die whom they knew might have been saved had they only been able td take enough cod liver oil to obtain from it a sufficient amount of the .medicinal principles which it contained. It is not necessary to . go to doctors to know why cod liver oil has not been, a popular remedy or to realize how few people are able to.takte enough of it to do them any good. The many wio have needed and attempted to take this: nauseating remedy, if they are still in a, position where they need cod liver oil, tare the ones who should throw their hats in the air and shout their joy from the house-top at" the news which comes to us of Vinol. These are" the people who will never forget the name of this new remedy, nor will they ever cease to thank Mr. Robert R. Bellamy, our prominent drug gist, for bringing it to Wilmington. How simple it all sounds, now that we know of it. Here we have a prepa ration that looks -like and tastes like delicious wine. It is a delicious wine with beef peptones, iron and manganese peptonates and glycerophosphates, only there has been added to it this extract of the cod's liver, this peculiar special extract of the curative principles, the means of obtaining which is the only discovery -about Vinol. Every weak, run-down, overworked man or woman, feeble old people, delicate children, those recovering from any severe illness who need strength and those who suf fer from chroniccoughs, colds or bron chitis should be interested in this prep aration.- - - Mr. Bellamy is kept busy explaining its merits and telling his many friends how it is now possible'to take all that is necessary of cod liver oil, or Vinol, its concentrated active medicinal prin ciples, "to overcome disease. It has not been a difficult matter for him to ex plain; as he lias done, the absolute use lessness of the grease itselt and to dem onstrate the great value of the medici nal properties of the liver of the cod. It has not been necessary for him to tell ' sufferers from such troubles that fat does not make fat, but simply up sets and disarranges the stomach. There are many people right here in our-city who know from but a few days' experience how much benefit they are deriving from' this preparation, and who have already learned that the medicinal properties of Vinol act in a most wonderful manner in checking the Symptoms of disease, while at the same time enabling the stomach to assimi late and digest from palatable, every day food, the necessary nourishment to renew tissue depleted by disease. CUT OUT DRINK" SHE SAYS.; Miss Katherine Locke Advises This as , Preparedness Step.,, (From Philadelphia Inquirer.)' There is a new-old kind of prepared ness afloat, total abstinence, according to Miss Katherine Locke, author and lecturer to woomen of society. At her fortnightly Current TopijC class at the Bellevue-Stratford hotel she did not withhold criticism ' or society circles in speaking of it. She said: "The drink question can also be ap plied to members of the smart set. Let them cut out the wine and cocktails and then they will.be more perfectly fit to serve their country. Should any crU sis arise it will be necessary for all classes of men to fight at the front." Miss Locke said total abstinence should be the "first white line of de fense" in military preparedness. She added: . i "The first and most essential thing to be done f or preparedness is to take the drink out of xhe home and not to wait for any restriction like that imposed on the belligerent nations of Europe at the beginning of the war. It was not until drinking was curtailed by law in England, Russia and France that any great military effectiveness Was evident in their concerted actions." . - - mail Orders filled (Incorporated: Phones IO. 2S0V ' Mun smQwear 99 lilllili! ill Xv Hfesi I know mm will heal this rash I never worry if I have a little rash or other eruption breakout I just put on a bit of Resinol Ointment.
