Another extra-inning affair was

Turks copied the long end of the
score, retaliating for their defeat
of Wednesday. The game was
never meant for the Indians, the To-
Gals refusing to take advantage of
the visitors on several different
occasions.
Twice during the long drawn out

Turks, only to lose out in the tenth.

an easy one to roll past him, and

When Johnson fought Kaufman
he weighed 213, which many be-
lieved before he stripped would be
as low as he could get, but the
negro showed an ample waist line,
and heavy arms and legs.
Knowing that in a fight with
Ketchel he would have to have his
speed keyed up to the highest
notch, Johnson has paid particular
attention to his weight, and as a
result will scale in the neighbor-
hood off 1856 pounds( when he
squares off. The disparity in
weight, therefore, will not be so
great as many imagined it would
be.

WORLDS CHAMPIONSHIP TO Be
DECIDED TOMORROW At DETROIT

Who will be the 1909 worlds
champions?
This question is paramount today
in the minds of the millions of ball
fans in this country, question
which sinks all others in temporary
oblivion.
Not until tomorrow afternoon on
the Detroit field will the question
Of baseball supremacy be settled,
for the Pittsburg Pirates, the
champions of the National league,
and the Detroit Tigers, the winners
of the American league pennant.

worlds series.
BY winning yesterday afternoons
struggle, Hughey jennings has
sent the Detroit fans into such
throes of enthusiasm that former
outbursts sink into insignificance.
To say that Detroit and Pittsburg
are baseball mad is putting it easy.
The entire country is aflame with
enthusiasm for the national pas
time and the great struggle going
on in the east between the base
ball giants of the world.
To George Mullin, the premier
slabster of the Tigers, belongs the
circled the bases. For seven long
innings thereafter the Tiger
HEAVIER held the Nationals safe,
credit for victory of yesterday. This
veteran faced the Pirates for the
third time during the series and for
the second time victory rested with
Detroit. His record of wins equals
that of Adams of Pittsburg, while
he has worked in more games dur
ing the worlds series than any Of
the other beavers.
With a rest of one day between
battles, there is strong likelihood
that Mullin will be sent upon the
hill tomorrow afternoon for the
final and crucial struggle.

BY THE RINGsIDER.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 15.-
With both men trained to the hour
and ready for a fast, hard battle,
Stanley Ketchel, middleweight
champion of the world, and Jack
Johnson, heavyweight champion OF
the world, are resting today after a
long and arduous training spell for
the contest that means much to
each.
When they step into the ring to-
morrow afternoon in Coffroths big
open air arena, they will be as fit
as ii is possible for two men to be.
Johnson has worked like Trojan
for this fight, while Ketchel has
never shown so much earnestness
in training.
Strange as 1t may seem, both
Ketchel and Johnson have paid I'M
usual attention, for men fighting in
the unlimited weight class, to their
poundage. When the match was
made it was scoffed at because of
the supposed great disparity in
their sizes. eKtcheil at the time
weighing 1853, while Johnson was
regarded as being as big man as
Jeffries. Ketohel, evidently know
ing what he was talking about, de-
clared that when he faced Johnson
he would be a full Pledged heavy
weight and he has kept his word.
Despite the hard work he has done
he has added instead of dropped it's
sue. Today he weighs not less
than 175 pounds.

The Plain Truth

Digesting food alone does not
cure indigestion or other stomach
troubles any more than a cathartic
cures constipation-is temporary
relief only. But digesting the food,
healing and cleansing the stomach
and intestines does restore them
to the normal condition, and In that
way a permanent cure can be
made. Powell's Stomach Remedy
does this. 1t is the only product
that will do this; 1t relieves the
first dose, and Is very pleasant to
take. Powell's Stomach Remedy
can be depended upon; it does
make permanent cures. DO not ac-
cept of any substitutes. All up to
date druggists sell it.
