Fight fans in Bismarck and vicinity
are awaiting with interest the out
come of the important ring battles
scheduled for next Monday, Labor
Day. Matches have been billed in
practically every big city in the en-
tire United States and the results of
every fight will mean deal to the
followers of this sport.
Skill versus the punch will feature
two championship ring battles on
Labor Day. Freddie Welsh, king Of
the lightweights,. defending his title
over distance for the first time in
&c months, pits his glove-craft
against the Knockout that turks in
Charlie Whites left hand in 20

o., against George Chaney's sleep
producing Southpaw wallop. Both
battles will be to a decision.
The sporting public is confidently
looking to Kilbane to romp through to
an easy win by virtue of his speed,
cleverness and ring generalship. Fans
contend that CLANCY won't get close
enough to champ to even worry him
a little.
Welsh, though slight favorite over
White, presents different betting
proposition. Like Kilbane, the man
who dethroned Willie Richie, is a
boxing wizard but he lacks a kaye
wallop. This battle will be the fixst

SlSLER DOOMED IF HE
DOESN'T CHANGE STRIDE

George Sisler, rated the best first
haseman in either major league has
a foot-fault! It's the only minor
shortcoming of which he is guilty and
it's responsible for his present Grip
pier condition.
The star of the st. Louis Browns
doesn't know how to stride across
first base SO as not to throw all his
weight on one foot. Up to the pres
ent time he has been laundering
down to first and leapng onto the bag
with one foot. in hope of beating the
throw by hairs breadth.
The result of this has been that his
ankles are weak. His knees, too, pain
under the strain.
IF Sisler doesn't change his stride
and step on the bag for more natur-
al move, he won't last five years in

ing his ninth year in harness. at
least he will lose his speed and that's

YUAN SH| KA|'S LIFE
ATTACKED BY OkUMA
Japanese Premier Declares
Chinese Dictator Was Gross
SensuaIist.

TOKYO. July 8.-(By maiD.-An at
tack on the life OF the late Yuan shi
Kai OF China. and on the characteristics
Of the Chinese people. has been made by
Marquis okuma, premier Of Japan. in
the July number OF the Shin Nippon,
the premiere own magazine. out today.
The attack, coming from the head of
the Japanese government. upon the
people of country IN friendly relation
with Japan, has created a profund SEN
sation throughout the empire.
yuan Shi Kai's death Is only deplor-
able for his own sake" wrote the pre-
mier. according to what Is declared to
be abridged but literal translation. His
death has revealed China In all her
weakness.
II 10 less than half a year since the
revolutionary outbreak gave a shock to
his brain. and the fact that this short
term Of nervous stress uhould have
prostrated Yuan both bodily and mem
tally proves the fundamental moral
weakness which undelies the Chinese
philosophy of life.
"The Chinese are disciples OF the
worst form Of hedonism. the doctrine
that pleasure is the chief god Of life.
The first thing Yuan did, on realizing
his ambition. was to bury him1elf In the
depths Of the court, surrounding himself
with a special encourage OF near rela-
tives and favorites and guarding the

safety Of his person with three-fold
hedgen of soldiery.
"A good ruler knows he has the re-
spect and affection OF the ruled, but q
bad one must ever be tormcnted by An
uneasy conscience, the CONSEQUENCES OF
guilt. Yuan Shi Kai. while guarding
himself with ouch a strong armed force,
had not forgotten to indulge In all the
luxuries OF a medieval epoch.
Yuan was poverty stricken In this.
that he ever hungered voraciously for
the pleasure Of the flesh and had no
moral support to ease him. He had been
reduced to the hopelesp stage OF moral
inbeciiity; he was lacking In the power
to overcome physical and moral difti-
culties. "Yuan's death Is a great mis-
fortune not only to himself. but to the
Chinese people. for II shows that the
people are touched more or lens by the
same vice which destroyed Yuan. Yuan
had no less than six proper wives, ana
the number of, his concubines is beyond
our Imagination. Such astounding NOR
al degenercy. engendered, no doubt, by
centuries OF evil national habit, ap i 10:
Is quite incompatible with the spirit OF
a patriot who Is ready to give his body
and soul in the case OF his country
men.
