Even the United States Government places so low an estimate on the Chinaman that It will not permit him to become a citizen or voter. And yet the Chinese sneak Into every town in the United States, where they are TOLERATED, rent some old shanty or cellar and take in washing for a trifle less money than the American Laundries can to It for, and thereby deprive the American labor of bread and butter for their families. . THE BUSINESS MAN HIT. The cunning and craft of these undesirable parasites Is best seen In the manner In which they spend their money. Their principal dish, as we all know, is rice and tea. These they 'import themselves. The opium they smoke is mostly smuggled into this country, beating Uncle Sam to it on duties. The money they spend with the merchant for clothing and eating is practically nothing. What becomes of the $50,000 to 175,000 they make a year, do they spend It with the white man in the Calumet Region? No. The business man who patronizes the Chinks should think this over. You rob your own business every time you do it. ) ' ' ' WHAT THE CHINESE LAUNDRIES DO. Any old building is good enough for them to do work in. No attention paid to sanitary conditions, OWING TO AN ABSENCE OF AN CITT ORDINANCE compelling them to keep their plates clean. They WASH AND SLEEP in the same room. We are particular Laundries catering to patriotic and particular people. Are you one of them? (WATCH THE NEXT ISSUE) -

THE HUNT FOR BUSINESS

Provincialism is a business crime in this day and generation. The man who goes after business off the street, on which his place is located, is the man who wins. The most successful men in the Calumet region are the business men who would not think of doing business without advertising in THE TIMES. They go after business and get it. Their field is wide. The circulation of THE TIMES is over Iwo times larger than all the other papers, daily and weekly, in all the cities and towns of the Calumet region put together.

San Francisco, July 6. That a meeting between Ad Wolgast and Freddie Welsh will be the next big pugilistic attraction in the lightweight division is practcally assured as the result of a conference between the fighters and their "naoeers. The terms of agreement stipulate that the fight shall be for twenty rounds or more and take place some time in September, preferably on Labor day; that each fighter shall post $10,000 as a side bet, and that the lightweight limit of 133 pounds "be made at the ringside. Wolgast has already posted 10,000 with Stakeholder James T. Clark. Welsh posted a $1,000 forfeit and under the terms of agreement must post the other $9,000 not later han August 9. It is expected that both James Coffroth and Milton L. Clark will bid for the fight. Clark has the September date for San Francisco, which means that Coffroth will have to select battle ground outside the city if he secures the bout. He probably would take it to the Point Richmond arena, where "Wolgast -o the title from Battling Kelson.

Wolgast said he would not fight until November if his prospective engagement with Welsh fell through. The claim of Owen Moran that a foul blow ended his battle for the lightweight championship is given scant attention in local sporting circles. Every spectator who was in position to see the body blows which ended the fight says that none landed below the belt line and that Moran was knocked out as fairly as any boxer ever was. It was th same kind of a wallop which snatched victory from the grasp of Jim Corbett at Carson City, when "Ruby" Robert Fitzsimmons sent borne his famous solar plexus. That Wolgast not only won fairly, but that his victory was due to a line of campaign carefully mapped out before the battle, is apparent from a remark made by Manager Tom Jones just before the men entered the ring. "Ad will hit Moran so often in the stomach that he will be ready to either cry quits or go down for the count, as

TYRUS COBB'S BAT VHIPSWHITt SOX Georgia Cracker Earns Five Runs in Early Innings and

pastime yesterday afternoon against the Detroit Tigers and took a sound beating by a count of 8 to 1. Ty Cobb tore the Sox defense into shreds during- the first five innings, giving his team five runs with little help from any one else. That would have been enough, but the other members of the team collected three more before it was over. The Sox made two or three feeble rallies, one of them netting'a lone tally, but for the most part they were easy victims for Pitcher Edgar Willett, who held the Sox to seven hits. Three of them happened to come in the third inning and produced the run. Young Cy Toung and his left handed benders baffled the Tigers the little while he was on the slab. In the fifth Ty Cobb combed a triple, his second of the game, and Toung Cy was excused from further duty, Olmstead taking his place. Olriie worked gallantly in the raving heat, slackening the pace of the Tigers, but not being able to stop them.

The Cubs are confident of their ability to get better than an even break with the Giants in the coming four game series. Their confidence is based on the recent brace in their pitching department. Manager Chance will not pick the pitcher for today's battle until he sees how his slabmen warm up before the game. His choice will be made from Mclntire, Richie and Reulbach and will depend somewhat on how Lew Richie's working arm has recovered from the cold it contracted while . pitching against Pittsburg in that rainstorm a

He can train down to apple pie condition in a fortnight. The site chosen seats 50,000 persons. Curran will train at Belfast. He is now at Plymouth." Tho fight contract was signed by Flanagan for Johnson and by S. Adler for Curran.
