General Demand

of the Well Informed of the World has
always been for a simple, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy of known
value; laxative which physicians could
sanction for family use because its COM
ponent parts are known to them to be
wholesome and truly beneficial in effect,
acceptable to the system and gentle, yet
prompt, in action.
In supplying that demand with its ex-
cellent combination of Syrup of Figs and
Elixir of SIENNA, the California Fig Syrup
Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies
on the merits of the laxative for its remark
able success.
That is one of many reasons why
Syrup of Figs and Elixir of SIENNA is given
the preference by the Informed.
To get its beneficial effects always buy
the genuine manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale
by all leading druggists. Price fifty cents
per bottle.

NEAR A MATCH FOR BURNS.
KetcheI Compares EaVorably With
Tommy i'm Many WAYS.

Chicago, Sept. 3.-The oft repeated
prediction that Ketchel is fast out
growing, both in quality and weight,
the middlewefght class, has led close
friends of Ketchel to believe that no
fighter short of Tommy Burns will
ever satisfy the husky Grand Rapids
youth. Ketchel is a classic in build.
History of the ring does not record a
more perfect figure in grace or de-
velopment. 1t will be seen by the
comparison that Burns outmeasures
KetcheH in nearly every respect ex-
cept height. Burns is undoubtedly the
better developed athlete of the two, al
though Ketchel has a more perfect
and has a bulldogs determination
never knowing when he is licked.
He has just signed up with Papke
for a Labor day fight at Jim Jeffries'
club and if he wins this, as his friends
on the coast are confident he will, it
will be the end practically of his at
tainment in the middleWeight class.
He will undoubtedly fight many more
fights in this class and expects by close
training to develop himself-along with
adding weight, so that by the time he
should enter the ring with Burns he
will have the additional 2A inches in
height and will otherwise outmeasure
Tommy Burns, still retaining his ac-
tive, 1.-THE figure. When Ketchel meets
Burns, if he ever does it will be the
greatest fight in recent years. 1t is
claimed by many men who have seen
Ketchel fight and studied his system
that he is the only man in the world
who can give Tommy Burns fight for
his money.

A few remarks from the Oklahoma
City Times: What's the use of playing
for this pennant anyway If the Nets
are going to let the Salt Packers beat
them? It's third place for us
now. We are pretty lucky to be there
and if we lose again today Joplin is
liable to grab us. Fenner does
not appear to be going very good. He
is making his daily hobbies and is not
hitting the ball. Pity Goes could
not have made a mistake when he
threw a ball to McClintock in the game

Setley's block off.

pitcher but he was as wild as Tessie
Alderman and fielded in the style of
Rip Hagerman.
With Topeka winning two games out
of every three and the Nets and job
bers see-sawing back and forth, it looks
pretty safe to hand the pennant to To-
peka. But there may be a slip yet.
The truth is out again. Hagerman
was banished by Shuster at Springfield
in the first game because he took bat
and put a mark around the plate.
The Midgets have won three out of
the "rejuvenated'' Midgets?
Hutchinson News: 1t is now practi-
cally conceded that Topeka has the
rag, although there is yet time for
some other club to win out. This makes
two of the pennants for Richard.
Wichita has already won the pennant
twice. Aren't these two towns kind
of hoggish and isn't it time for the
honors to be passed around? Here's
to you Cooley, for you kept the flag In
Kansas.
joplin News-Herald: It's peculiar
how this batting goes. Cobb, who was
hitting at a 400 clip for two months,

papers accuse Cooley of refusing to let
any umpire work in the series at To-
peka except Setly. But at the same
time it is admitted that had the series
been at Oklahoma City Shuster would
have been the only one wanted. AS
far as the writer is concerned, ne would
rather a hundred times over trust ms

MURPHY DID BEST WORK.

Round Battle in New York.

ROuhu BautIe III new AOrk.
New York, Sept. 3.--A great crowd
was present at the Navarro Athletic
club in Ulmer park last night when
Tommy Murphy had the better of six
round battle with his former sparring
partner, Leach Cross. The fight was a
slashing one from start to finish, with
Murphy the aggressor. Under the
rules no decision was rendered, but 1t
was evident that Murphy was the SUI
perior. There are those who believe,
however, that had the fight gone to
ten rounds Cross would have defeated
Murphy, for Cross was gaining
strength with each round and Murphy
was weakening. The fighters weighed
in at 1913 pounds and Cross was made
favorite in the betting.
