The Los Angeles Athletic club is in
charge of the affair, this being the
first time that the championship has
ever been held in the south. Hereto

Il that the deer season this year
would open with the dove season, which

ing at Aransas Pass, Texas, he landed

JEFFRIES PROMISES
TO BATTLE JOHNSON
SAYS He WILL POST FORFEIT
JULY II
White Champion Declares Theatrical
Contract Prevented Him from
Hitherto Signing Name to
Fight Contract

NEW YORK, July 1o.-Personal
friends of James ]. Jeffries have re-
ceived word from him, they say, that
as soon as his theatrical contract
terminates, July II, he will post $4,000
forfeit and sign articles for fight
with Jack Johnson.
In the last few months there has
been much discussion as to the failure
of Jeffries to post his forfeit, and this
failure has ELECTED much criticism.
Replying to this, Jeffries stated that
his theatrical contract would not per-
NIT him to sign articles to fight any
one, and for that reason he has re-
fused to post a forfeit until his stage
work is finished.

] At the quiet camp in the breeze
soothed quarters at Venice, where the
fighters gather to complete their period
of training, Billy Papke and Ad VOL

beaten pathway. Billy just now has
turned the seaside camp into place
of national prominence, for he mas re-

! serious contender for the middleweight
title.
Little Ad Wolgast, industrious as a

be the supreme conflict of his career.
Under Tom Jones, Wolgast is getting

Follows Straight Course
Battling Nelson's character despite
his name as prize ring contestant, is
one in which there can be found much
to admire. But his greatest achieve
ment, It seems to me, is his persistent
adherence to those rules which he laid
down for himself In early years as the
guiding principles which should carry
him to the goal of his desires-the
lightweight title. There is much for
the thinker to ponder over in that one
phase of this remarkable young man S
career. He is an ardent admirer OF a
rough and brutal game, 1t is true. He
is relentless in his pursuit of foeman
in the ring: he is so wrapped up in his
own life that he fails TO even take a
casual glance around into the affairs
of the world at large; but all the while
he Is working away, not always quietly,
but at all times faithfully, carving out
a true course in the profession he has
chosen. 1t is something a good
deal, when you stop to think of it
to be able to point to untirng efforts
even in an unworthy cause. This is the
everlasting tribute which must be paid
to the Battler-he stuck to his ship
to the very end.
Great Interest Manifested
But turning from this little glimpse
into the inner lire or the champion, tne
fans easily find plenty of food for pu-
gilistic consumption in the prepara-
tions for the coming struggles at Maud
Junction. Out at the cozy training
quarters at the South Side Athletic
club the fans this morning will prob
ably see the pugs coming in from their
road efforts just about the time the
morning ball begins. In the galaxy of
ring stars gathered at the club for
their preparatory efforts the most prom
inent are Battling Nelson and Jim

 cost; follow their lead and be ready
 to state at what price, considering
 the present cost of cows, feed, labor
 etc. you can afford to make and sell milk, allowing yourselves a reason
 able profit. You need not give out
 anything except your price, lln ess
 you choose. The milk companies
 know what it cost them to handle
 and deliver milk, and what is their profit, and they keep it we'll to them- selves. If those figures could be ex- actly ascertained we would hear less about the prosperity of the farm CTS" You have the same privilege your expenses and profit, and yet the farmer who dignifies and honors the title and stands for fair methods, can we'll afford to come out and say: Tt costs me thus, and so to carry on my dairy, l feed and work on such and such plan," be- cause the intelligent farmer would scorn to make profit at the ex- pense of some one else. In fact, his fault has been and still is, not stand ing up more boldly for his rights. In judging others by his high standard he has been slowly but surely be-
 trayed.

BROUGHT COLOR
 TO HER CHEEKS.
Then Strength Returned and This Bloodlcss Woman
 Became Well.

There arc many men, women and even children suffering from anamia, which means "too little blood" The disease is we'll named, for tho patient actually has deficiency of blood which affects every part of the body. There is lack of energy, characteristic pal. Tor, q sense of suifoeating after the least exertion, generally described as short- ness of breath. The disease comes on gradually and is often well advanced before it is recognized.
 Too often medical treatment is un- satisfactory and the disease progresses until it becomes hopeless.
 A long.standing case, which resisted treatment until Dr. Williams Pink Pills were tried, is described by Mrs. Clinton E. Hale, of No. f04 Bristol avenue, Lock- port, N. r., in the following statement:
 "When l was about fourteen years of age began to fail rapidly in health. Although l had always been Q frail child, l now had to quit school. l was weak and tired out all of the time. In walking fast or going up stairs it seemed that l couldn't walk fast enough to keep up with the heart beats. had palpitation of the heart and occasional dizzy spells. l became awfully thin and pale. l had no appetite and suffered with indiges. tion. l didn't have any life orambition and was sensitive and irritable. I fin- ally became so weak that could hardly walk.
 "The doctors seemed to disagree about my case and their medicine did not help me. My parents were alarmed at my condition and, upon the advice of our minister's wife, had me try Dr. Will. liams' Pink Pills. By the time had taken two boxes of the pills I could notice an improvement in my condition Ioould eat better, wasn't so weak and my color came back. l took the pills until entirely cured"
 Dr. Williams Pink Pills have also cured such blood diseases as rheumatism, after-effects of the grip and levers. Owing to the intimate relation between the blood and nerves, the pills have been found invaluable in nervous diseases.
 Dr. Williams Pink Pills are sold by all druggists or sent, postpaid, on re- ceipt of price, 50 cents per box; six boxes for $2.5o, by the Dr. Williams Medicine Company, Schenectady, N. Y.

WE agree with Jul friend, Harry

there should be. When we have an
engagement to meet a man at z o.

instead Of asking him to take din

more hospitality among psople gener-

the same time, we don't agree with
Mr.. Turner'S contention that minis

less hospitality than other people. Mr.
