Los Angeles. Cal, Sept. 1S.-James j.
Jeffries failed to stop Hank Griffin. a
local colored heavyweight, in four
rounds here tonight. He had agreed to
give the colored man $500 If he failed to
put him out. Griffin weighed $50 pounds
and Jeffries about 220. The big cham
pion rushed the colored man at the be-
ginning of the first round and had him
down very quickly by simply pushing
him over. Hank was up and fighting in
two seconds, however, and succeeded in
landing several times on the champions
chest. In the second Griffin seemed to
be inclined to mix 1t little, but chang
ed his mind when the champion jabbed
him in the ribs. He did little except to
try to hold the big mans arms. He
was down nine seconds on two different
occa sions. In the last two rounds Grit
fin made running race Of it, occasion
ally stopping long enough to tap jeff

mothers never thought of using any
thing else for Indigestion or Bilious

seldom heard Of appendicitis. Nervous
Prostitution or Heart Failure. etc. They
used August Flower to clean ont the
system and stop fermentation of undi-
gested food, regulate the action of the
liver, stimulate the nervous and Or
ganic action Of the system. and that Is
all they took when feeling dull ana bad
