DANGER SIGNAL.

II the fire bell should ring would
you run and stop It or go and help to
put out the fire? 1t is much the
same way with a cough. A cough
is q danger signal as much as fire
bell. You should no more try to
suppress it than to stop fire bell
when It is ringing, but should cure
the disease that causes the coughing.
This can nearly always be done by
taking Chamberlain Cough Remedy
Many have used it with the most
beneficial results. 1T is especially
valuable for persistent coughs that
so often follows bad cold or an at
tack OF the grip. Mrs. Thomas
Beeching, Andrews, Ind, writes:
During the winter my husband
takes cold easily and coughs and
coughs. Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy is the best medicine for beraking
up these attacks and you cannot
get him to take any other" OBJ

Moran-Morris Fight.

TULSA, OKLA, Sept. 1.-Two former
white hopes" clash here Labor Day
in 10-round bout which is attracting
general interest in the Southwest. One
is Frank Moran, of Pittsburgh, who
stayed 20 rounds with Jack Johnson
in Paris two years ago and was the
last opponent of Jess Willard, and the
other is Carl Morris, up to year or
SO ago, considered most likely candi-
date for the heavyweight crown. A
possible return match with Champion
Willard is part of the inducement held
out to the winner of the Labor Day
rili. Morris is considerably bigger
than Moran, according to figures.

TWO BIC FIGHTS ON
LABOR DAY PLANNED

CEDAR POINT, Ohio, Sept. John
ny Kilbane, of Cleveland, stakes his
title as featherweight champion boxer
of the world on the result of fifteen
round bout to a decision here Labor
Day, with George CLANCY, of Balti-
more. By the articles of agreement.
the title will change hands should
CLANCY win by a decision, which will
be made by Matt Hinkle, referee and
promoter of the match.
Kilbane, one of the fastest feather
weights since the title was held by
George Dixon, won the championship
Feb. %, 1912, through a decision over
Abe Attell, at Los Angeles. Since that
time he has been a consistent winner,
even disproying the old story that he
lacked stiff punch by including in his
record number of knockouts.
CLANCY, though a younger man than
Kilbane, has had busy career in his
six years of boxing. He possesses a
knockout punch, and is an aggressive
boxer.
The men are nearly evenly matched,
with a slight advantage to the Cleve-
land boxer in reach. The articles call
for ring-side weight of 1872 pounds,
and each boxer is confident of making
that. Latest figures indicated that
Kilbane weighed 124 IL and CLANCY
1875.

actual experience as their judgment approves or the
President may fix. not. however less than three
months
c) In view of the farreaching consequences of the
declaration made by the President. accepting the
hour day not only upon the railroads and the classes
of labor involved directly in this controversy but to
the public and upon all industry, it seems plain that
before the existing conditions are changed the whole
subject in so far as it affects the railroads and their
employees should be investigated and determined by
a Commission to be appointed by the President, of
such standing to compel attention and respect to
its findings The judgment of such Commission
would be helpful basis for adjustments with labor
and such legislation as intelligent public opinion so
informed, might demand
