INTERESTING PITCHERS' BATTLE ' GAVE 2 TO 1 VICTORY TO THE GIANTS AFTER NINE LIVELY INNINGS. One game was the bill at the Robert Strange playground yesterday after noon when the Giants scalped the pep pery Dodgers in a well-played game by a score of 2 to 1. From the very beginning the game resolved itself into a genuine pitchers' battle between Boswell and Yates, the former gaining a slight edge on his opponent in both strikeouts and hits allowed. But for an error at an inop portune time victory might have been credited to the losers, yet the ability of the Giants to handle the ball at critical times withou bobbles put the final score as it is given in the official wind-up. Score by innings: Dodgers 010 000 000 1 3 2 Giants 000 002 000 2 4 3 Batteries: Yates and Wilson; Bos well and Casteen; summary, 2-base hits, Casteen, struck out by Boswell 16, by Yates 14. TOWN CREEK RIDES SHALLOTTE. Teams Play a Neck and Neck Game, Ends in Skirmish Practice. Town Creek yesterday eased one more run than did Shallott and won a close, spirited contest of baseball by a score of 5 to 4. The game took place at Landale be fore a large crowd that continually cheered the players on to victory. Town Creek got the better of the hit ting argument by two stiff drives, which since they came opportunely alone would have given the victory against Shallotte. Reports from th game indicate that both teams played good ball and that at times players making plays next to sensational. A small sized row took place at the close of the game.

Says A-I-M is Valuable Medicine "I was suffering from nervousness and Indigestion, and was so weak and sluggish that I could not do my work properly. Acid Iron Mineral was sug gested as a means of obtaining relief from my trouble. After a thorough course of A-I-M treatment I have been cured completely and permanently. It has been three years since I have taken any medicine whatever and today I feel strong and healthy. Acid Iron Mineral did the work and I have not felt the need of medicine since I finished taking it. 1 sincerely recommend Acid Iron Mineral to anyone suffering as I did. It is a very valuable medicine and I know that it has virtue as I have been grekily benefited by its use," says Mr. J. S; Mitchell, of Salem, Va. Mr. Mitchell is a well known and prosperous farmer and when he says that Acid Iron Mineral restored his health, quickly and .permanently you may rest assured , that such was the case. Preparations containing alcohol can not give permanent relief, a reaction often comes, due to the temporary stim ulation eft the alcohol. Acid Iron Min eral is free .from alcohol and will not injure or discolor the teeth. At all reliable druggists in 50c and $1 sizes.
