OF Interest to Sick People.

We have all the sympathy in the
world for sick people, and want to
treat them in a serious way. There
is no humor in pain and affection,
but hard earnest fact. 1t is impos-
sible for the patient to impress on
others the extent of suffering they
endure, and their anxiety for relief.
To get well or be relieved is their
one thought. Any remedy that will
bring this about has their everlast-
ing gratitude. We have thousands
of letters from people who have had
dyspepsia, sick headache and bilious
attacks, who tell us how thankful
they were for having used DR..
Gums Improved Liver Pills. They
are sold at all drug stores for 25c
per box. Only one for a dose. These
pills remove the cause of disease
and make the skin clear and healthy
looking.

agreement is at the end of the follow

only possible contender for the light

Every newspaper representative in
Goldfield today went to Columbia to see
Cans work. The Importance of the
delegation seemed to have sufficient
influence upon Cans or his trainer to
decide that the negro would not weigh
again in public nor box in his exhibit
tions. This seems TO be another stall
for odds. / am at loss to decide the
outcome, but in my opinion the Balti-

Clifford for the preliminary with Lun-
die. He gave me an imitation of what
the main event on Labor day ought
to be. He believes that Joe is as good
boxer as he has ever seen. He says
Joe knows Nelson's plans of a battle.
He says many are figuring on fifteen
round fight, and that after that point
the Dane is supposed to have the ad-
vantage.
He says. too. that Joe is one of the
O'Brien kind, who can shoot in a mitt
and cut the other fellow up about the
face and eyes and beat him into SUBJ
mission. He says that if the fight
goes more than dozen rounds Nelson
will not be strong enough to knock
out four year old kid.
Van Buskirk may be right. I have
my doubts / like Bats keenness

Cans supporters have pretended to find
in the conditions made by the willy No

can't do two things or be in two places
at once. The understanding now is that
the weights shall be made and the fight
started on schedule time 1t has been
advertised that Nolan dictated the ar
ticles that were drawn and signed and
that Siler was his choice for referee.
Siler punctured a couple of holes in
the articles covering the points which
Cans manager has heretofore con-
tended were In favor of the Dane. On
the agreement that the fighters should
break at the word of the referee Siler
convinced Nolan that there might be
situations in the clinches after a daz-
ing blow was delivered where the
referees word might not be heard, and
the LAYING on of hands TO force a
break would not only be popular with
the spectators. but in accordance with
a referees prerogative in conducting q
fair contest.
IN another point of the articles, stip-
ulating that the man who Knocked the
other down should retire to his corner,
siler convinced the Danes manager
that prizering ethics would only re-
quest that the man who delivered the
telling blow should step behind his

Los Angeles herald., 1906-04-12

Walter Scott, who is best known to
che American public as "Scotty,"
bought an auto yesterday, acquiring the
proprietorship of a siX-cylinder Frank
lin at the expense of $415O, r. c. Ham
lin concluding the deal with the miner
actor after a lively demonstration in
which all of "Scotty's" cravings for
speed were amply satisfied.
The Death valley mystery, who has
been reported as having lost his roll
and Joined the army of pikers. had
$415O more than he could spend handiy
and he concluded to buy a devil-wagon
so that he could break as many rec
ords and the machine, if necessary,
without being forced to buy demoi'
ished benzine buggy
"Scotty" hinted yesterday that he
really had to have an automobile and
Hamlin heard of the desires of the
mysterious individual. No sonner said
than done and Hamlin had "Scotty''
loaded into a Franklin and speeding
away to nowhere in the fastest time
of the season.
After various meanderings in the city
and suburbs they halted under the
overhanginE boughs of the sheltering
palms of Westlake park and when
"Scotty' had taken several longing
looks at the machine he asked the price
and closed the deal without haggling.
Incidentally photographer hap
pened" along about this time and
"Scotty" ordered everybody from the
Los Angeles herald., 1906-04-12

tiles that pedestrians may any moment
witness an exciting race between
"Scotty" in his Chug-chuG and a squad
of policemen on wheels.
In moments of enthusiasm "Scotty
allows himself to talk about going after
the auto record between Los Angeles
and San Francisco, and those who
know "Scotty" will not deny that if he
decides to try for this record he will
rub it close or break his machine OF
his neck trying.
The Pasadena record is yet his
hobby, however, and when he recently
tried for it the only thing that pre-
vented the establishment of a new rec
ord was the accident in which he and
three others so narrowly escaped with
their lives.
"SCotty' is no novice at handling the
wheel, and his reckless spirit carries
many prospects of exciting rides and
record breaking feats when he goes out
for a spin along the country roads.
Whether he will ship the machine
with his show and give his wild rides
and reckless driving feats as a sub
stitute for the parade and other means
of advertising his show is not known
and he has not said what he proposes
to do with the auto when he leaves
Los Angeles.
In fact, it is within the range of pos
siblities that the machine will be
kinding wood before the end of the
week. as he has a supreme contempt
for anything that blocks his road and
cares as little for a street car as for a
stray bit of paper.
