KILBANE To PRESENT
TITLE TO JOE LYNCH
Featherweight Champion Intends
to Retire From Ring.
Championship, However, Must Be Con.
tended for Before Any Fighter
Will Be Recognized
by Fight Fans.

The latest information concerning
Johnny Kilbane, featherweight cham.
pion of America, is to the effect that
he intends to retire at Christmas time
and make a present of the title to Joe
Lynch. 1t would be nice Christmas
gift for Lynch, tut unfortunately for
Kilbane he Will no more be permitted
to be pugilist Kriss Kringle than half
a dozen other champions who have at
tempted to put championship belts in
the stockings of personal friends
If Kilbane ever does retire, and there
Is strong doubt on that point, the title
will be open to competition, and the
featherweight who defeats q majority
of the contenders will be recognized as
the champion.
All previous efforts of champions to
give their titles have utterly failed,
and the champion, after announcing
his retirement has no more to do with
the disposition of the title than has a

RINGS INK STICKS TO HIM
Cincinnati TwirIer Thought He Had
Shaken 1t, But 1t Came Back
in Big Series.

Jimmy Ring was the hard luck
pitcher Of the Cincinnati Reds all Last
season. The team just could not make
runs for him. Jimmy thought he had
shaken the jinx at Chicago on October
when he won a worlds series game
from the White Sox to 0.
But Jimmy's hard luck was only on a
temporary vacation that day. 1t came
back home on October Z when Pat
Moran called him in to relieve Walter
Ruether in the sixth inning with Hap
Felsch on second, none out and the
score 4 to 3 in Cincinnatis favor
Jimmy started off like he had pitched
at Chicago. Gandil popped out, Ris-
berg grounded out and then Schalk
singled and the score was tied. 1t was
Rings game, win or lose.
He lost and mainly because the
Reds, who had made four runs for the
wobbly Ruether, lapsed into their Ma
tional League habit Of forgetting how
to score when Jimmy took the hill.
Moran's men scored less runs for
Ring in the National League season
than for any other pitcher on the team
who worked as much as he.
After he went into the box in the
sixth game, IS Reds went to bat
against Dick Kerr. Five of them hit
safely and one walked. But did even

"CAN | BE
CURED?" SAYS
THE SUFFERER

How often have you heard that sad
cry from the victims of disease. Per-
haps the disorder has gone too far for
help, but oftener it is just in it's first
stages and the pains and aches are only
natures first cries for help. Do not
despair. Find out the cause and give
nature all the help you can and she
will repay you with health. Look after
the kidneys. The kidneys are the most
overworked organs of the human body,
and when they fail in their work Of
tiltering and throwing off the poison
that constantly accumulates in the sys-
tenn, everything goes wrong. GOLD
MEDAL HARLEM Oil Capsules will
give almost immediate relief from kid
ney and bladder troubles and their kin
dred ailments. They will free your
body from pain in short order. But be
