many minor stars in the East lately,
but none to whom much kudos was at

1t is barely possible that it will be a
runaway, with Johnson sidestepping
and blocking and Burns boring in all
the time. In which case Burns will get
the decision as sure as houses. But I
do not think this likely. Johnson, if
he fights on the square, and l really
think he is sensible enough to do SO,
will go in with determination one time
in his life, and, sturdy as the Canadian
may be and much as we all want to see
him win, feel bound to take the pes

MARINES BEAT
FORT SKATER

There was a hot game of baseball
at Aala Park yesterday afternoon
when the Marines defeated the soldiers
of Fort Shafter for the third time
The score was 8 to 2 and shows in
itself that the game was a very close
one.
There was no score in the first in
ming, but Masak, that veteran home
maker, did little stunt all by
himself in the. second which sent the
ball way out centerfeld way and
Melted him a home run. Anderson
was on base at the time, so he also
came in and the Marines were two to
the good.
In the third inning the Marines
made another run, and then followed a
long period of scoring, with both
sides fighting tooth and nail to get in
run edgeways. Finally the soldiers
scored one in the eighth and repeated
the trick in the ninth, but this left
them one behind and the Marines were
the winners after one of the hardest
park.
The lineup was: Marines-Winters
h.; Mike, If; Luderman, 3D.; Ander-
son, c.; Masak, Sb,y Pvedman, cf.;
Misner, p; Shove, S.; Boots, rf. Fort
Shafter-Loiette, ss.; McNabb, eff;

Shortly after three clock this after
noon, that is at eleven clock tomor
row morning in Sydney, Australia, Jack
johnson and Tommy Burns, ne Brusso
christened Noah, will start their battle
for the heavyweight championship of
The world.
The result should reach here, allow
ing for twenty rounds and a reasonable
amount of delay in cabling, between
eight and eleven o'clock tonight. 1
understand that Jack Seully has ar
ranged for eablegram and he will
doubtless show his usual courtesy in
notifying questioners of the result.
Most of us, of course, want to see
the white man win because the big
negro has not a particularly ingratiat-
ing wav with him and he has managed
to make himself about as cordially dis
liked as he could if he were trying
TO do nothing else. During his last
trip to Australia he had trouble with
his manager and, while entirely wrong
in his side of the dispute, took the
cowardly method of beating up the
other man who was about half his size.
But, to get right down to pugilistle
precedent, there seems little chance for
Burns provided, and L suppose we must
spell that with great big P, that the
fight is on the square.

which to do crooked work. The sports
there require absolute stralghtness as

of doing these things and it cannot be

lack Johnson has the very obvious
fake with Hank Griffin against him and
Tommy was sadly implicated in the
business that caused all bets to be call
ed off the last time he fought Jack
o 'Brien.
As a matter of fact that fake would
have gone through if it had not been
cd on the spot Just in time TO stop it.
He showed Burns where he would be
losing money and prestige by throwing
to Jack O'Brien as the San Francisco
promoters would certainly give the WIN,
ner of the bout the chance at Blll
Squires.
Burns refused to throw the hight at
the last moment and he and Tom Nc
Carey agreed to have all bets declared
off after o 'Brien was in the ring so
that the latter could not back out:
Burns won his fight with 'Brien and
got the chance at Squires which started
him on his tour of the world, during
which he met and defeated practically
every white man of any timbre IN the
ring.
But Tommy Burns could not put Jack
o 'Brien away when he had him at his
mercy. This happened in two instances:

Rheumatism Developed Burning,

my husband had been q great SUI
terer with rheumatism for nearly fifteen
years. At first it was in his bones, but
after a while it was in the flesh and
finally running sores broke out IN his
legs, from below the knees to the ankles.
There are no words to tell all the dis
comfort and great suffering he had to
endure night and day. He used every
kind Of remedy and three physicians
treated him, one after the other, with
out any good results whatever. So
one day / happened to read about
Cuticura Remedies. I asked him II
he would not try them. No. said he,
it's no use, I've spent enough money
now.' The next day I ordered five
dollars worth Of Cuticura Soap, Cuti-
cura Ointment, and Cuticura Resolvent.
He began to use them without conf
dence but after three weeks all the
sores were dried up. The burning
fire stopped, and the pains became
bearable. After three months he was
quite we'll. Two years later the pains
and sores came back after he a been
working hard and had taken cold.
But as soon as he used Cuticura again
It cured him. Two years ago I used
Cuticura Pills for general debility. They
did me a great deal of good and made
me we'll. Three months since I had pains
in my back and Cuticura took them
away, too. I an prove this test
