They Will Box Six Rounds at Philadel-
phia Tonight.

Philadelphia, Aug. 10.-Sam Lang
ford, the Boston negro, and Al Kauf-
man of California, the only men in

chance at Jack johnson. are in fine
condition and ready for their six
round bout tonight on the grounds of
the National league baseball club.
Kaufman has been in training at
Island Heights, n. J., while Langford
put on the finishing touches at Mer-
ehantville, N J.

worlds. champion, they have declared
themselves as exceedingly anxious to
make a good showing tonight. They
feel that the man who gets the bet
ter of this encounter will have first
claim for fight with Johnson.

forty pounds heavier than Langford,

up matters with speed and skill There
is no general betting on the bout in

COTTON GROWING A FAILURE.
Farmers in India Are Meeting With
Little Success.

Washington, Aug. 10.-Difficulty is
experienced by cotton growers in India
with both staple and yield. Many ex-
periments have been made with the
object of improving both, reports Con-
sui E. Haldeman Dennison of Bombay,
but thus far with Indifferent success.
Egyptian and other exotic varieties
have been introduced from time to
time, but the results have not been
encouraging. Under garden culture
the finer staples have responded we'll,
but, tried in the fields, they have fails
ed to produce the results they show in
their native soils. Future efforts will
be devoted to the improvement of the
staple and yield of the native cotton.
A native tree cotton from which great
results were predicted few years ago
has proved disappointing, according to
the consul. 1t did very well in garden
trials, but when the attempt was made
to grow it on a large scale failure fol-
lowed.

If You Are Fat and
Hot Read This Article

There is no necessity of fat people suf-
fering as they do Most fat people are SO
good-natured they do not care how they
look or how they get along during the hot
weather. As mater. of fact there is a
natural fat reducer that in the past sew
eral years has been demonstrating that it
will reduce fat and not tear down the body
or leave big, flabby rolls of. skin and
wrinkles. This method is the famous Mar
mola prescription, which is now prepared
in tablet form to meet the demands of fat
people in the summer and to enable them
at all times to take their fat reducer after
each meal. One of these little tablets
taken after a meal turns that meal into
good food for the blood and stops all fat
producing elements from going into the
system. Marmola Tablets has an army
of men and women who testify to its sue
'oess, and you would tire reading what they
say of its triumphs. MarmoIa tablets not
only stop producing fat in the body but
they reduce flesh at the rate of from Il
to IS ounces day They are harmless
and do nothing but assist nature to give
to the body the nourishment it requires.
They are sold at all drug stores. price IS

Company. Ss5 Farmer Bldg, Detroit, Mich.

HE IS HELD ILLEGALLY.
That Is the Claim of Weddings Attor-
neys in st. Louis.

st. Louis, Aug. 10.-Three attorneys
and five Louisville witnesses will ap-
pear before Circuit Judge Hitchcock
this afternoon in the hearing of the
application for a writ of habeaS corpus
filed by Joseph Vending charged with
the murder of Alma Kellner in Louis
vile. The attorneys allege that Wend-
ling is being held here and has been
here Illegally since Sunday.
A telegram from Jackson, secretary
of Governor Wilson of Kentucky, re-
ceived today advised the attorneys that
a requisition for Vending had been
issued on the governor of California,
but none had been issued for Missouri.
Weddings attorneys said if the writ
of habeas corpus is granted they will
advise the prisoner to surrender to the
sheriff of st. Louis. They want to get
the alleged slayer out of the hands of
Chief of Detectives Carney.

HORDEs OF INDIA COMING.
Big Movement of Punjabs, Moham-
medans and Skins to u. 5.

Calcutta, Aug. 10.-A remarkable
emigration of Punjabs, Mohamme-
dams and Sikhs, who are leaving for
Hong Kong, with the avowed inten-
ton of proceeding to California, is en-
gaging the official attention of Will
lam McMichael, the American consul
general here. Some of those who are
turning their faces toward the new
world are taking their families with
them, but the greater number belong
to the fighting castles and are under
the impression that they can get on
the American police force. They are
confident that they can at least get
posts as watchmen.
The immigrants explain that they
have relatives in California who have
written them, saying that they have
found a good land and urging those
addressed to join them.
Fifteen hundred natives sailed for
the east on five ships last month and
many more are preparing to follow.
Mr.. McMichael said today that none
of the immigrants had visited the
American consulate and probably that
they would not be permitted to land
in the United States. He expects
Washington will make representations
