Noteworthy Cure of a Notable NewspaperArtist, Whose Sketches, PortraitsArtist, Whose Sketches, Portraits

and Cartoons Have DelightedThousands.Thousands 7

There are few newspaper readers in the twin cities and its contributoryterritory who have not laughed over the cartoons, admired the sketchesor been "gratified by the portraits which bore the signature "Bris." It isa pleasure to present to our readers a portrait of the artist, from a sketchmade by himself. Charles Fred. Brisley has for years been the artist ofthe popular and influential St. Paul Dispatch. Read what he says abouthimself.

In a recent interview Mr. Brisley says that up to a short time ago hisnervous system was generally run down. This was caused by the arduousand confining character of his duties. He suffered greatly from loss ofappetite and "from that bane of artistic workers, sleeplessness. He readthe announcements of Dr. Charcot's Kola Nervine Tablets, bought a boxof the now famous remedy and used it with what he calls "Wonderfulsuccess," He says "The remedy toned and invigorated my system, re-

storing both appetite and refreshing sleep. In addition to the generalimprovement in health I desire to call attention to on. of the chief meritsof Dr. Charcot's Kola Nervine Tablets— the remedy acts as a substitutefor beer and other stimulants and leaves absolutely no bad results aftertaking." "' . .

Dr. Charcot's Kola Nervine Tablets are acknowledged b y physiciansand patients to be the greatest medical discovery of the cen tury for thecure of all nervous diseases, for invigorating blood, brain, . nerves andmuscles and as a systemic tonic. They, are compounded upon the pres-cription of the greatest nerve specialist of' the age and cure where all

GItIFFO DEFENDS MAHERGRIFFO DEFENDS MAIIEH.

Views of Sum Austin, Fltzpntrick,I .mi m > Flood and

Others.

Special Correspondence of the Globe.NEW YORK, Dec. 12.—Has Peter

Maher, alleged champion of theworld by the gracious transfer of thetitle by James J. Corbett, a streak !of "yellow" in his composition?. In Jother, words, is he a quitter, a cow- \u25a0

ard? That is the remarkable propo-sition which is now being discussed iby the leading sportsmen of America, |the more remarkable from the fact ithat no champion of any country, Ifrom the days of Tom Cribb and iTom Hyer down to those of Jem Mace jand John L. Sullivan, was ever sus- Ipected of such a weakness. Pat !Sheedy, Budd Renaud and Jim Hoi- ;land unhesitatingly declare that 'Maher is a quitter. They were all iheavy losers upon the Irishman in ihis battle with Bob Fitzsimmons at !New Orleans, however, and may jhave some prejudice. In view of ;Maher's alleged weakness and his ;proposed great battle with Bob Fitz- ,'Simmons for the championship of Ithe world near El Paso, Feb. 14, the Jfollowing opinions of Billy Madden, Ithe famous manager; Sam Austin, jthe sporting writer; Sam Fitzpat- jrick, who brought out Peter Jackson, lJoe Goddard and Kid Lavigne; |Young Griffo, the pugilist, and Tom IFlood, the noted sportsman, will be Jof interest just at this time: = |

MADDEN SAYS MAHER.

Tony Sage, the famous Dublinsportsman, sent Peter Maher over tothis country four years ago, and re-quested me to take him in charge. : Idid so, and serit him up against sec- |ond and third-rate men. He whipped !them all. Jim Daly was the best of jthe lot, and Peter polished him offJquite easily. He showed no signs jof "quitting" in any of these bouts. II then matched him against Bob Fitz- jSimmons. He had Fitzsimmons al-most whipped in the first round, jbut he lost his head, and did not i

know how to take advantage of his jopportunity. Bob did, and kept Peterat arm's length after that, jabbing ]him in the mouth and nose until iPeter was choking. In the twelfthround Peter quit, but I do not thinkthat any criterion of his couragenow. He was then a green boy, home-sick, heartsick and half scared to ;

death by the great crowd present.and the ovation he received. He was tquite overcome by. the idea of the jgreat things that were expected of jhim, and had stage fright of the jworst kind. He did not know much tabout the game then, and . as hewould not train, was not in the bestphysical condition.

At Coney Island I do not think he Iquit with Joe Goddard. I handledthe Australian then, and watchedboth men closely. Maher was uncon-ditioned, and was simply punchedinto a state of exhaustion. He trains jfaithfully these days, I hear, and JI think he would stay to a finish now !with anybody.

—William Madden.

A RANK COWARD.

My opinion of Peter Maher is thathe is a big coward. I saw him quittwice once at Coney Island withGoddard, and upon another occasionof wl ich few know anything. Soon |

after his disgraceful, exhibition -ofcowardice with Fitzsimmons at NewOrleans Maher, somewhat the worsefor liquor, picked a quarrel with aman who had bet against him atSteve Brodle's saloon in New York.The man was no match for him pWysJically,and became thoroughly fright!ened. A quiet man named JohnKelleher remonstrated with Maherconcerning his violent conduct, andMaher' began abusing him. Kelle-her promptly offered to fight himin the back room or on the street oranywhere except in front of the bTBvThe bully weakened. He .wanted Bopart of Kelleher, and "quit" tlj|nand there. It is a shame such a manshould be called champion, and I pre-

diet that Goddard. Choynski, Slavinor Fitzsimmons will whip him if he'

j meets any of them. O'Donnell wis a| "stiff," a gift.

—Thomas C. Flocd.

EDITOR AUSTIN'S VIEW.

Whether Peter Maher possesses thequality of which pugilistic "champs"are made is a question of vital im-portance to those who have been

! heralding him as the second John L.1 1 am of the opinion that Maher doesI not lack heart, despite the argu-

! ments advanced by those who take!an opposite view. When he fought1Fitzsimmons at New Orleans, he wasiraw, untutored and lacking in expe-

|rience. It was the first battle of im-| portance that he had ever fought,

! and he was discouraged by the re-\u25a0 marks of the men in his corner, be-! cause of his failure to take advan-; tage of an opportunity early in the

'. proceedings that would surely havegiven him the victory. Taunted by

a feeling of disappointment, he triedto remedy matters, anil in his wildrage at being unable to put a gloveupon the clever man in front of himhe did what 999 men out of every1,000 would have done under thesame conditions— up the un-equal struggle.

The courageous instinct of the man,however, is illustrated in his de-

termination not to relinquish his am-bition, that of winning the RichardK. Fox diamond belt, emblematic of

Championship glory. \u25a0";The only course left to Maher after

being defeated by the lanky Au-

stralian was to begin again, realiz-ing that he must fight his way to thetop.

Itwas this experience ofa novitiatewhich is responsible now for the

eminence that Maher has attained in

the fistic world. He gave seriousthought to the matter of learning

the tricks of the trade and becamein time an ardent exponent of scien-tific pugilism. Today he is rated asthe most improved man in the ring,

but whether this rating is justifiableor not remains to be seen. His vie-tories in recent fights have been ac-complished so quickly that littlechance has been afforded him to

demonstrate the effectiveness of hisnewly acquired art. He has shownhis ability to avoid punishment, and jhis victories will testify to his mar- j

velous hitting powers. '-".-: ' yY. - *In summing up the argument, 1 i

am of the opinion that the question Iof Maher's gameness should be of jsecondary importance to the one re- igarding the improvement in fistic

skill which his adherents claim he I"has made since he fought Godfrey in

Boston a year ago. At- would -require"a fight of ten or a dozen rounds to

demonstrate to what..extent he hasimproved, yet if he is able to put

his opponent' out in three punchesas he did O'Donnell, I don't knowthat, fistic cleverness is so much afactor after all. —Sam C. Austin. • j

A CHAMPION. j

The Peter Maher of today and thePeter Maher who landed . here four |years ago from Ireland are as differ- ]ent as daylight and dark. Then Peter jwas a novice and had but the most ele-mentary knowledge of the art of box-ing.- Now he is a past grand masterof the game, and a champion among-champions. I.don't think his alleged"quitting" at New Orleans should cutany figure as to his ; present status.At Coney Island I know he did notquit. He wa/3 simply punched out, orrather completely exhausted by hisown exertions and the punching he re-ceived. In both cases he was utterly

In no condition' to fight, never havingtrained an horn. In addition to thishe drank heavily of ales and Dublinstout, and this affected. his head, heartand stomach. Of course, his managersand trainers were fools to let him doit,-;but they did all the same. NowPeter does not touch a drop of either,malt or other spirits, and consequentlyIs in'tho finest of fettle. He also trainsfaithfully for every contest he goesinto. Now he can put up a battle withany man living, and I'll gamble hewill never quit. Condition makes cour-age. 1 have seen the bravest of bravemen shriek and shiver when lying ona bed of sickness and pain. An uncon-ditioned man in the ring Is a ruck manand wiltweaken when the heart won'tperform its functions properly. Thatis what "quitting" generally is.

In the next championship battle be-tween Maher and Fitzsimmons I thinkMaher will be a winner. \u25a0_...

* 7-7.*-- .—Samuel Fitzpatrlck.

NO QUITTER.

I refereed the battle between PeterMaher and Joe Goddard at Coney Isl-and, and I can state positively Maherdid not quit. He was in poor conditionand was simply beaten into a stateof helplessness after he had the otherman almost done for. Itwas a furiousbattle of three rounds of the give-and-take order, and Goddard's superiorcondition told, altr/ough he was theworse punished man of the two.

Peter did quit at New Orleans,, I amtold, but I do not set much store bythat, as he was green, inexperiencedand untrained at the time. He gaveup a struggle in which he had nochance to win. Joe Goddard did thesame a little over a year ago withLang In Australia. He entered thering sick, hoping luck would pull himthrough. He gave up in the seventhor eighth round, saying: "It's yourbattle. Ican't go on, but I'll meet youagain." He kept his word, and notlongago whipped Lang. Surely no oneever accused Joe Goddard with lackof gameness. Why accuse Maher whenhe acted in precisely the same manner,and under precisely similar conditions?I am sure that, fit and well, no man inthe world can make him quit now.

—J. P. Eckhardt.

GRIFFO DEFENDS MAHER.

Peter Maher, the new champion, ofthe world, Is no quitter. The chap thatsays so is either a blooming fool or ablooming rascal. He either does notknow, or ifhe does know is trying todo harm to one of the best fellows onearth: I'd like to meet that fellowand persuade him he's wrong. Thechances are that he is some managerwho has got a no-good pugilist hewants to boom at Peter's expense.

Maher did not quit at Coney Island.That I have on the best authority. Hewould have won with Fitzsimmons atNew Orleans if he had been rightlyhandled. He was a green boy thenand didn't know anything. Neitherdid his handlers.It's different now. Peter is a general

at this "stage of the game. He has;improved 100 per cent and is alwaysin the best of condition when he fights*.He will fight them all, Fitzsimmons,Choynski Goddard, Slavln and Jack-son, if they are Maher wants noinvalids, like some people Iknow— and,mark my words, he will whip them all.

—Alfred Griffith (Griffo).

Everything heate seemed to sour and create acid andgases in the 'stomach; he had painslike rheumatism in the back, shoulderblades and limbs, fullness and distressafter eating, poor appetite and loss offlesh; the heart became affected, caus-ing palpitation and sleeplessness atnight.Igave him powerful nerve tonics and

blood remedies, but to no purpose. Asan experiment. I filially bought afifty cent package of Stuart's Dyspep-sia Tablets at a drug store and gavethem to him. Almost immediate re-lief was given and after he had usedfour boxes he was to all appearancesfully cured.

There was no more acidity or sourwatery risings.no bloating after meals,the appetite was vigorous and he hasgained between 10 and 12 pounds inweight of solid, healthy flesh.

Although Stuart's Dyspepsia Tabletsare advertised and sold in drug stores -yet- I consider them a most valuable

j.addition -to- any -physician's- -line ofremedies, as they are perfectly harm-less' aftd'can be 'given to .children or'

invalids or in any condition •'\u25a0 of thestomach with perfect safety,. beingharmless and containing nothing butvegetable and fruit essences, pure pep-sin and Golden Seal.

Without any question they are the ;safest, most effective cure for indiges-tion,' biliousness, constipation and all :derangements of the stomach howeverslight or severe.

Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are madeby the Stuart Co.. of Marshall, Mich.,and. sold by druggists everywhere atfifty cents per package.
