Dobbs and Elberfeld pleaded

In the fracgs. McElveen failed to
appear in court to prosecute,
though in a statement made at the
Aragon hotel he declared that the
f«ud between him and Dobbs is by
no means settled and that he will
have satisfaction from Dobbs "in
his own way and at his own hands.”
Will Get Satisfaction.
Undoubtedly the friends of Mc-
Elveen are urging him to a thor
ough revenge upon the Montgom
ery manager and have offered their
aid. Trouble in some private meet

day '? possible, though McElveen
says he has asked his frjends.to let
him attend to getting th® satis

In the course of the trial of the
two Montgomery men this morning
Dobbs declared that he struck Mc-
Elveen purely byway of defend

told him I was sorry he hit me.
but that I was ready to make up is
an absolute falsehood,” said Mc-
Elveen today, aa he nursed the eye
that Dobbs nearly closed forever
when he struck him. never told
Dobbs that or anything else, and
the feud between him and me isn't
settled nor won't be, whatever is
the outcome of the case in court.
"Manager Hemphill of the Atlan
ta club came to me yesterday and
tried to smooth things over ’for
the good of the game.’ I've heard
my fill of 'the good of the game.'
That man hit me in the face with
out any cause. If I can't* resent
that assault personally as a man
without the good of the game being
hurt. I want to know it.
“That's a private assault Dobbs
made on me—man to man. Well,
I’m a ball player, but I'll tell you
again that that thing is between
Dobbs and me, and I'll settle it with
rny own hands.
Will Settle It Himself.
"That's what I've told my friends
when they've come to me by the .
dozen to tell me they wanted t,o
, help me get even with Dobbs. I've
told them that I’m much obliged
for their friendship and I don't re
fuse their offer of aid, because 1
may need it. I . an't tell about that,
but this is something I'm 'perfect
ly competent to take eyre of my
self, and Dm not going to tell you
how or when I'll do it; but I’m go
ing to do it, and until I do it,
there's going to be no settlement of
that feud."
"But you won't have any trouble
with Dobbs on the ball field, will
you?' McElveen was asked.
"I won't say about that. I'm go
ing to be on the ball ground ready
to play this afternoon, but I won't
say a word of what IT], do until 1
settle this thing myself."

Chronic Ulcers Mean Bad Blood
If outside influences were responsible for chronic ulcers, then exter
nal applications and simple cleanliness would be a curative treatment.
But the trouble is always in the blood which has become unhealthy and
diseased, and keeps the sore open by continually discharging into it the
impurities and infectious matter with which the circulation is filled.
Salves, washes, lotions, etc., may cause the place to scab over temporarily,
ebut the blood is not made purer by* such treatment
and soon the old inflammation and discharge will
return and the sore be as bad or worse than before.
Nor will removing the place by surgical operation
insure a cure; the cause still remains in the blood
and the sore is bound to return. S. S. S. heals old
sores by going down into the blood and removing
the impurities and germs which are responsible for
the place. S. S. S. thoroughly purifies the circula
tion and in this way destroys the source of every
chronic ulcer. In addition to purifying the blood
S. S. S. enriches this vital fluid and in every way assists nature in over
coming the bad effects of a chronic ulcer. Book on Seres and Ulcers and
