FRANK BATES IS NO FAKE
Tampa Times Has Found New White
Mans Hope and Says he Looks
Like the Real Goods
(Tampa Times, 10th)

Fred Bates, veritable infantile
giant from Cincinnati, is the latest
White Mans Hope" and he has just
been uncovered here, where he has
been in training for the past seven
months in absolute seclusion as if os-
traciZed.
That he is not four-f1uShing is shown
by the fact that he has lodged news
pa per reporters as if they handed out
bubonic plague germs instead of the
real dope. and his presence in Florida
only made known by accident. Fur
thermore, he has no angel to stake
him to a meal ticket but he has that
modest confidence in himself to bring
back the championship belt to the eau
casion camp that he is here on his own
resources and is his own manager and
pay car
Here is some dope on him:
He is nineteen years old: is six feet
seven and one-half inches in height;
weighs in fighting condition 1873
pounds; has a fist on him like slab of
bacon or whaleback lake boat; has
reach of eighty-five inches and alto
Sether shows a development that out
classes any man who ever stepped into
the ring.
He takes philosophical view of
Fistiana. He says that in three or
four years Jack Johnson cannot come
back and he will just be processing it
out of the paddock for the big stake
race. He points to the fact that the
former champs have been put to the
mat for the count because of age rath-
er than pluck, science OF experience

him for three years and will put him
into the shape that won't let Jack
Johnson take back the bacon and will

His home is a tent about three miles
from Tampa and on the bay beach
Daily he takes rowing, plunging, bag
punching and other things. He is
carefully watching his physical condi-
ton. and wine. women and song do
not appeal to him.
He has but one desire, and that is to
be the worlds champion with the
gloves. He likes Florida for training.
but in a week will go to California
and then make a comparison for his
permanent training headquarters
He has never fought professionally
but in clubs put down and out such
men as Mike Schreck and Marvin Hart
and made a monkey of McCrea1, the
man from Missouri, SO that he cut
short his pugilistic career.
He looks the part and says that
Jack Johnson's ring talk will never
beat him.
He surely has the physique. He
certainly has the ambition, although
he makes no pyrotechnics about it. He
manifestly has the confidence, as he is
backing himself on the long trip. He
is absolutely adverse to publicity He
seems to carry gray head on green

HONEST MEDICINE VERSUS FAKES

President Taft's recent message sug-
gesting an amendment to the Pure
Food and Drugs law in its relation to
Prepared Medicines, does not refer to
such standard medicines as Foley's
Honey and Tar Compound and Foley
Kidney Pills, both of which are true
medicines carefully compounded of in
gradients whose medicinal qualities
are recognized by the medical profess
sion itself as the best known remedial
agents for the diseases they are in
tended to counteract. For over three
decades Foley's Homer and Tar Com
pound has been a standard remedy for
coughs. colds and affections of the
throat, chest and lungs for children
and for grown persons, and it retains
today its pre- eminence above all other
preparations of its kind. Foley Kid
ney Pills are equally effective and mer-
itorious Sold by the Court Pharmacy.

There Is more catarrh in this sec
ton of the country than all other dis
eases put together, and until the last
few years was supposed to be incur
able. For a great many years doctors
pronounced it a local disease and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly failing to cure with local treat
ment, pronounced it incurable. Science
has proven catarrh TO be a constitu
tional disease and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Ca
tarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Che
ney Co, Toledo, Ohio, is the only
constitutional cure on the market. 1t
is taken internally in doses from 10

Progressive Georgia

The state Of Georgia IS making more
rapid progress today than ever before
in her history; in fact, her progress
along all lines. commercial. industrial
and social, is something to be marvel
ed at. The people who are responsible
for this progress do not favor the sale
of whisky TO help them any in the up
building of the state. The large cities
are wide-awake, and have on big
schemes for their betterment and de-
yelopment; the smaller cities and towns
are organizing trade bodies, and civic
Improvement clubs; the state agricul-
turally, IS undergoing a tremendous
change for the better. and the whole
state is throbbing with progress, and
not one action of the responsibility of
this progress was caused by the sale
of whisky. AS a matter of fact that
issue has been neglected in Georgia.
The people are thinking more Of the
education of their children, and the de-
velopment of Georgia's resources than
of the liquor problem. Whisky is not
being relied upon to assist in the gen.
eral welfar re of the state nor in the up
lift of her eitizenry.

clean.
Reggie Rawlings, who holds down the

ball little, as did Pierce Riddle, whose
two triples and a pair OF singles helped
a little.

Shock Boteler, while he did not fan
