announces that should he be defeated
by Johnnie Dundee Tuesday night he
will retire permanently from the ring.
White is sincere, or believes that
he is. which amounts to the same
thing, but it's a good 2 to 1 bet that i no matter how his next fight goes he !
will stick with the game. I
Many boxers have made this same j
statement, but memory fails when one tries to recall one man who ever stuck by his words In this respect.

would be his last in the rinsr.

Strikers on way to state house. Pour girls marched at the head of 100 strikers from Governor Poss' Hyde park plant, on their way to the stat house at Boston, to demand a public hearing of the state board of arbitration and conciliation. Recently the governor announced he would move his plunts to Canada. He has decided that the strikers who are demanding a "living wage" shall not enter the state house, and has conferred with Chief Whitney of the state police regarding the visit of the strikers. Fifty policemen are camped in the corridors of the state house, ready for any disturbance or demonstration the strikers may start. Governor Foss refused a public hearing and said "it was an attack by political forces to either force him out of pjUtica ox oat of business! : ;
Philadelphia, Pa.. Aug. 11. With i record of nix victories and seven de
feats on the present Invasion of the
east, after a start of six straight de
feats, the aspiring White Sox were in
a wood to enjoy thoroughly their day
off and anticipate with eagerness the
resumption of baseball warfare with
the big Macks today.
Various means were employed by
various athletes to get the most re
taxation yesterday. A few took the
train to Atlantic City for a swim and
some sea air, some visited historical points of interest in the city, and some stayed secluded in their rooms with
interesting reading matter. "Buck" Weaver, of course, went to his old home in Pottstown, Pa., to visit his father and sister, and to present in person to the latter the small bit of French poodle dog which he carried religiously all the way from Chicago. "Buck" has become so attached to the small canine that he fears a spell of melancholia when he returns without It.

Are you perfectly well? You may not

I want to talk with you about your condition and explain my methods of treatment. KIDNEY AND BLADDER DISEASES QL'ICKLY Ct'HED They are often caused by early excesses, alcoholic liquors and severe sickness, the usual symptoms being chilly and feverish spells, worn-out feeling, puffinesa under the eyes, drains, smarting, burning and .swelling. My long study and extensive practice in treating kidney diseases Insure success in all cases not past the
cyative stage. I determine the condition by analysis of urine, and the many severe kidney troubles I have cured, after they had been given up by other doctors, give me great confidence in my method. MEN WITH CONTRACTED DISEASES. IN CONTRACTED DISEASES my patients are thoroughly cured in less time than any other less thorough forms of treatment require in producing doubtful results. I don't use strong, painful, injurior injections that do-(treat harm. My method cures without pain; gives Immediate benefits and a lasting cure. No charge for a confidential talk on the subject.

Despoiled by rain of their chanoe to even up the season's aeries with Philadelphia, the Cubs departed last night for Boston, where they are due to begin tomorrow their final invasion of the east.- The Phillies, who were just as disappointed as the Cubs over yesterday's postponement, left for home by a different rovte, and have two open dates in which to rest up. There never was any chance to play the final game of the series here aftei the rain, which brought joy to so many millions, hit this section of the map. The west side grounds were flooded.
and all hope of pulling off the fray was abandoned early. The players reported to the park and packed up for the trip, but did not don spangles. This is the first postponement on the west side grounds since April 11. The, opening of the season was postponed from April 10 to 12 by bad weather, but every scheduled game has been played on the Cubs park since then until yesterday. This was the first Sunday date scheduled for either Cubs or White Sox that has been prevented by rain either at home or abroad this season. Consequently there was not much chance for complaint

PETROSKEY TO MEET M'ALLISTER AGAIN San Francisco, Cal.. Aug. 11. Differences of opinion regarding the decision of the bout between Bob McAllister and Sailor Petroskey may
prompt Promoter Jim Coffroth to rematch the mlddleweights to box again on either Labor day or Admission day. The other holiday bout being considered now is a match in which Gunboat Smith will be a principal. The Gunner may be sent against Sam Lang-ford.
While a Smith-Langford bout is stll under consideration, Coffroth is sure Smith will be a member of one of his cards. Just before the Gunner defeated Jim Flynn Friday night in New York, Manager Jim Buckley wired that he would match Smith with heavyweight in the world. and he named Sanm Langford, Coffroth has not decided whether Langford' would prove the best opponent, but it is thought he leans toward the Boston negro. Coffroth would also like to get Tommy Murphy a match out here, but the Harlemite appears to be the one man that is dodged by the first class lightweights and a match with him against a second rater would hardly be . a drawing card.
