Packey McFarland vs. Matt Wells at Milwaukee. August 28. Packey McFarland vs. Ad Wolgast at Milwaukee. September 11. These two pugilistic gems were practically clinched yesterday. George McDonald, acting for Wells, signed articles in New York for the bout with Packey. Coming on top of this. Wolgast and McFarland agreed upon weight for the fight which promises to be the greatest in point of interest ever staged near Chicago. That the champion and the stockyards Irishman should ever really get together on the poundage question after their months of wrangling is hard to believe, but Emil Thiry, whd is looking after Packey's interests, declared yesterday that everything had been arranged for the bout except Wolgast's guarantee. On the amount of money Wolgast gets depends the weight for the go. If McFarland will allow the champion to have the first $14,000 out of the purse he will be permitted to make 133 pounds at 3 o'clock in the afternoon. If he will give but $13,000 he will have to make the same weight one hour later. Wolgast, Thiry and a prominent Milwaukee promoter are to meet in Chicago today and arrange the details for the match. Wolgast says he will not Blgn an agreement for the bout unless promoter whose financial standing ia

good will guarantee him either $13,000

or $14,000. Just as soon as he sees the money, the champion declares he will put-his name down in big black letters and give McFarland what he has

been clamoring for these many months.

Health Against

Disease

With scores of cities throughout the United States passing ordinances for the regulation of laundries it is argued that now is an appropriate time for the cities of the Calumet Region to pass such a measure. Such an ordinance, it is declared, should stand for health against disease, for cleanliness against filth, for American citizenship Mongolian hordes, for right living against graveling penuriousness, for American labor against Mongolian invasion, for civilization against heathendom. ' SCARE IN PANA DUE TO LEPROSY RUMOR Pana, 111., July 7. Patrons of a recently established Chinese laundry here are worried by a rumor that one of the employee, now at the Deaconess hospital, is afflicted with leprosy. The man was taken to the hospital, supposedly suffering with consumption. An examination resulted in the opinion he has leprosy.

Boston, Mass., July 18. That Sunday

shakeup by Manager Chance did the Cubs a lot of good apparently, for they

went out today and snatched both ends

of a double-header away from the

ftustlers, although the latter were

strengthened by the desertion of Doc Miller and Herzog. The scores were

5 to 1 and 7 to 6.

Big Ed Reulbach performed In the

curtain raiser and with perfect support

held the tailenders safely while the

Cubs batted McTigue oft the slab Inside

of two rounds and cinched their viciuiy

off Buster Brown. In the afterpiece

King Cole hooked up with a former teammate. Pep Griffin, on the slab, anu

came out a winner, but by tho narrow

est possible margin and with a lot of

help from his backing.

Cole was going In the eighth inning

and all gone in the ninth. Even the

Ion lead established by the Cubs before

the finish would not have sufficed If

Schekard had not come to th rescue

with a magnificent play completed by

Doyle. That play stopped a rallly

which seemed almost certain -to wre3t from the- tiring King a victory, with

which he looked capable of walking

away at the start.

he should choose this time Is Chicago's misfortune.

The nearest the Sox came to scoring

was to get on lonely man as far as

fault, for one of his mates made a field

loutn slders were able to reach rst

He had the old speed on the ball and

when the speed's there, there's a hop to the ball that fools the best hitters

in the business. Tt was there all tha time yesterday and with such pronounced effect that Walter might have told the batters what kind of ball he was going ot pitch and they would have been as helpless as ever.
