San Francisco, Sept with only
four days remaining before they en-
ter the ring, Britt and Nelson are al
ready in the finest shape being prac-
tically down to weight.
The question of a referee is not yet
settled. Nelson insists that Jeffries
cannot referee, and will hold for Siler
to the end. Siler arrived at Salt Lake
this morning and will referee the
Schreck- Willie fight there tonight He
will arrive here Friday. There Ia
no doubt of his acceptance if selected
for referee. Britt will refuse to have
him, believing he can induce Nelson
to again consent to the selection OF
Jeffries, in case they can come to
terms with the ex-champion in the
matter of fee. Nelson says he will
never consent.
Betting continues this morning at
ten to seven in Britt's favor Short
enders are laying many small bets at
this price, but no big wagers are yet
recorded. The sale OF seats is heavy
and the receipts will be the greatest
ever drawn by San Francisco fight.
Jeffries wired this afternoon he
would accept $1,000 as fee for referee
ing. He at first demanded $4,000
VIII Not Have Jeffries
Manager Billy Nolan. representing
Nelson, delivered an ultimatum late
this afternoon. He said. There will!
be no fight If Jeffries is to be referee.
We are prepared to fight Britt and
will enter. the ring for that purpose,
but under no circumstances what
ever will We consent to have Jeffries
act as referee

Scalp Humor Cured by cuticura Soap

great deal of annoyance and inconven-

many remedies and so-called hair
tonics, q friend induced me to try

humor was cured in short time, my
hair was restored as healthy as ever,

Every housekeeper should know
that if they will buy Defiance Cold
Water Starch for laundry use they will
save not only time, because it never
sticks to the iron, but because each
package contains IL oz.-One full
pound-While all the other Cod Water
Starches are put up in 5-4-pound pack
ages, and the price is the same, 10
cents. Then, again, because Defiance
Starch is free from all injurious chem
icals. If your grocer tries to sell you a
l2-oz. package it is because he has
stock on hand which he wishes to
dispose Of before he puts in Defiance
He knows that Defiance Starch has
printed on every package in large let
tiers and figures "l6 ozs" Demand
Defiance and save much time and
money and the annoyance Of the iron
sticking. Defiance never sticks.

MEASURES THAT ARE STANDARD
Much Care Taken to Preserve Them
Correctly.

A gallon is exactly ten pounds o!
distilled water; so when housewives
say "a pint's pound the world
around they are mistaken. The i'm
perial standard yard which is the
same as our own, is the distance be-
tween two fine lines on bar OF
bronze, measured at G2 degrees Fab
renheit. The bar is kept mounted on
eight rollers III a special steel safe in
London. The standard pound is kept
IN a silver-gilt box contained in a
bronze box, the top of which is secure
~ screwed down and the whole placed
in a special compartment Of the same
safe. The German metric system
took the place of more than twenty
local measures. The HessG-Darmstadt
foot was less than ten inches, the
Schwarzberg- Rudolstadt foot more
than fifteen.

This act means a radical improye-
