Long, the matchmaker, my word that

it is going through.
"As to the weight, | don't see why
Ketchel should not make the same
weight for Papke that he did in Mil
Waukee. That was -154 pounds, at 8
o'clock. But l won't insist on that;
but will agree to 156 pounds three
hours before ringside if he wishes.
But if he weighs 1853 pounds at 9

HONOLULU, 7. H., September 8,
190S.-The forces of good, that work
for reform and righteousness, must be
active and doing, if they are to over
come the mighty powers of evil that
are ever pushing to make more of their
i'll gotten dollars from the vices and
sorrows of mankind. One of the
greatest reforms of the century is now
taking place in the vast Empire of
China. 1t is the fight against opium.
It is indeed a noble effort and is meet
ing with remarkable results. From a
recent report we note that Frederic s.
Isham has been travelling in eastern
Asia, and has given special attention
to the efforts being made in suppress
ing the opium traffic. He found that
in many places the people who pro.
flied by the opium trade are now CO.
operating with the authorities for its
eradiction; that opium smoking is now
generally looked down upon by high
caste Chinese, and everything seems
to point to the success of the crusade
against it. But he informs us that, in
giving up his opium, the Chinaman is
slowly but surely acquiring a new vice
whisky drinking.
Cheap whisky" he says, "is being
imported and consumed to an extent
that causes thoughtful men much con-
Germ. The Chinaman works hard; he
is not lazy; his food is barely sufficient
to sustain him. The drug probably
was much INDUCED in, owing to this
fact; as its use is being slowly curtail-

Ketchel and Sam Langford, the ne
gro" said Joe O'Connor, manager OF
Young Ketchel, yesterday. Il can set
tie the matter for the present by saying
that Ketchel will never box a colored
man while have anything to do with
him."
Ketchel, who was standing by, smil-
ed when his manager spoke, and the
writer said to him:
How do you feel about the mat
ter personality"
We'll so far as | am concerned, l
am willing to fight anybody. l am
not particularly stuck on the idea of
graphing and clinching with a coon,
but l am fond enough of the game to
be willing to give any man a chance.
Joe O'Connor is my manager, though,
and whatever he says goes with me
and every time. He says l must not
box negro, and that means that the
color bar is, up"
Under the circumstances the pros
poets of a go between Langford and
Ketchel are anything but bright.
