2 GENERAL SPORTS. SlaTin's Latest 'Offer to Fight McAnliffe on the Turf. Heath of a Noted Champion Hand- Ball Plsyirs Ccmirg to This City. Ectjllir.tr at Alameda. This has been a bad season for professicnal sprint runners on this roast.

Not more than six weeks ago, 11. -I. Johnson, the champion t-bort -distance runner of the world, and a winner of a great Sheffield 1 iii tip, passed over to the great majority, but bis name will be handed down and remembered as the premier 100-yards sprinter. On Tuesday night Archie McConib, the well-known 7.1 -yards' sprinter, who, although born in Massachusetts, was raised in the vicinity of North Peach, in this city, expired after a few' days' illness. Pneumonia was the fatal disease.

One week ago McComb was enjoying excellent health, but having exposed himself hen in a heated state to the chilly atmosphere one night, he took a severe cold, with fatal result. McC imb worked for years at his trade in the woolen-mills at North Reach, but, having developed phenomenal speed while contesting in -races against local sprinters, he east his trade to the winds and joined the ranks of the professional athletes. He ran bis first race at Ninth Peach against the champion runner of that locality and wen easily. East season McComb aud his anion. Skinner, returned from Australia with a handsome sum of money.

This year McComb, Skinner and a veryfast man. which the former picked out from the professionals In the Fist, had arranged for another trip to the Colonies, but of course death has upset all their plans. Mc- Comb was 32 years of age, ami the funeral will take place to day trom bis mother residence on North Point street, near Polk. ll' I.tl XX and slavix. JoeMcAuliffe cabled to a relative of his in tit city yesterday that all means are be- by the SUvtn contingent to job him and that the scheme now the battle Lake place on will not men who are interested in welfare are surprised at Madden very poor judgment while nmnr puMllsl's interests in England, say that tf Madden is the great financier be is represented to be, he made the mi-take of his life when he consented to allow Mc- Auliffe to do battle under the auspices of the alleued Ormonde Club, which is iv reality cue club.

Mow tue question is, whatw.ll be the result of the present state cf a very badly mixed up kettle of fish be? Siavin and liifriends will use their utmost endeavors to Ibsv. big fight it out the bare 'mis ou turf. Certainly, if the police will "lit pugilists to thirty it is not at all likely ttat Sl number of rounds, even with extra weight site of mittens, will be allowed. C. course al sorts of reports will be flushed across the Atlantic, until such time as the matter will be permanently decided one way or the other.

Roth fighters are in need of money, and the upshot of the present condition of affairs will probably be a tier from the Olympic Club of New Orlean' lo have the question of fistic superiority d- elded ou this sale of the pond.

POJMIRE! How He Suffered and Was Cured. MR. M. GIBBONS. Michael Gibbons is among the list of popnlar rail, way men em ployed on the 3.

P. system. "I suffered for years." the gentleman said, in an Interview with a reporter. "My ease was oue of general debility, which came on me gradually until it had gained such a hold that at times I was Incapacitated for work of any kind. My entire system was broken down.

I lost all my color, and It seemed as if my blood had tnrned to water. 1 lost ln weight until I almost became a skeleton; no matter how much rest I would take I would have a continual feeling of languldne9s, having scarcely any ambition left. Se- vere pains existed alltnruugli my body, but prlncl- palry in my back. My appetite failed me to such an extent that at times 1 would not eat what one would call a hearty meal In two days. My nerves were so unstrung that the least noise would make me tremble.

I seemed as though I cared to do nothing but remain in bed the greater part of the time. At nights I could not sleep soundly, and for hours I would lie awake. "I tried Innumerable doctors and all kind! of patent medicines 1 could hear of, but I was invari- ably made worse by their treatment or nse. Last month I was persuaded to try the Cosmopolitan Dispensary, and I firmly believe they saved my life. Day by day I gained in strength, and was enabled to once again attend to my avocation.

Since I com- menced taking their treatment I have not had any further care or trouble, and to-day 1 am almost fully recovered from one of the worst attacks of nervous debility lhat any man was ever afflicted with and recovered from." 0 William F. Kane, an employe of the California Furniture Company on Geary stieet, says: "I was so weak 1 could scarcely walk up the stairs to the Cosmopolitan Dispensary. I was suffering from Asthma and Catarrh. I had a continual pain In the side and could neither eat. sleep nor work.

Their remedies did me so much good that now I sleep well and am working again. My appetite Is good, and 1 really believe they will effect a permanent cure In my case. Other physicians failed to do me any good." Mr. Kane has been a resident of San Francisco for 28 years and lives at 1713 Post street, where he will corroborate the above statement at any time. The Cosmopolitan Dispensary Is a Medical and Surgical Institute, located permanently at the Junc- tion of Stockton, Ellis and Market streets, for the euro of all Diseases, Afflictions and Deformities.
