The Elks and the Carlisle inidan

The Carlisle Indians are making

Black Champion Decides He'll Quit

Chicago, July 31—Jack Johnson,
heavywelghtchamplon of the world,
last night said he had fought his last
fight
"Tho promoters won't give me my
price for fighting now and if I wait
a year I'll probably not be in con-
dition to put up a fight worthy of
champion."
Asked if he intended to retire in
favor of any fighter, Johnson said
No. Let Jeanette, Langford ami
McVey fight it out. I think MoVey
will thrash any of them, but that in
their troubles, not mine. No white
fighter can give either of these men
a good battle."
Johnson has saved hiB money. He
said that he was worth $200,000.

Proclaimed by Many a. the Greatest
All Round Player of Generations,
Who Recently Was Traded by
Chicago to Pittsburg.
The worst mistake I ever remem-
ber making in a ball game was the
first season the Cubs won the pen-
nant, and the fact that it turned out
all right made a good play of It.
Chance still Is yelling about It, I
"u"' crowd blamed me  o it
hit and run signal and although he
went out on a hard bounder to the
second baseman, I landed on third. I
don't know what upset my thinking
gear, unless it was the fact that he
didn't sacrifice. We had been play-
ing the sacrifice game, and in that
Blage of the game it looked to be the
play. ITobably the fact that the bat,
ter played hit and run with me made
me forget how many were out; I
thought it was two. The next bat-
ter hit a long fly out to Magee, who
was throwing like a shot. I didn't
even look at him, but Jogged on home
Slowly. I Was within 20 feet of the
base when 1 saw Chance coming from
the bench, yelling at the top of his
voice. He stopped to pick up a bat
as he came, and the expression on
his face was enough to scare a ball
player out of a month's Balary. I
think he was planning to murder me
as I came over the plate. It puzzled
me. I couldn't Imagine what was
wrong, tmt 1 had a sort of sickening
feeling down in ray Btomach that told
me some one had blundered. I knew
then how the Light Brigade felt. I
woke up suddenly and turned to try
to get back to third. Just as I turn- j
ed, a wild howl came from the crowd, I
and looking out, i saw that Magee
had muffed the ball, so I Jogged ou j
over the plate with ttoe winning run. j
I had been playing with the idea
that two men were out, and that I
had to come on They told me that
the coacher and everyone on the
bench yelled at ma to stick to the :
base, and score on Magee's catch, but
honestly, I never heard a thing, nor
did I notice that I was making the
mistake until I saw Chance's face.
I guess Magee saw me going, and was
so anxious to make the easy double
play that he mtiffed the ball. We
got two more runs after that, and won
in a canter, and I tried to tell Chance
that I thad a hunch all the time that
Magee was going to muff the fly. I
learned two things on that play—one
to count the outs, and the other not
to try to kid Chance during a game.
I've always felt very kindly toward
Magee since then for muffing the ball,
and Sherry told me a few days later
he muffed it to keep from showing me
up, which I believed almost aB much
as Chance believed my yarn.

Oklahoma City, Okla., July 30.
After taking a little needed rest
from the strenuous selge at Balti
more, which resulted as he was do
termlned to have it, Hon. W. H
Murray, democratic candidate fo
congressman at large, returned to
Oklahoma City and has been ove--
«helmed by a stream of visiting
friends from the hour of his arrival
the Skirvin hotel. Because Mr.
Murray has not deemed it necessarv
or pertinent that he should attempt
to cover the state in a vigorous
campaign for this nomination, hn
enemies have sought by all manner
of inuendo and insinuation, to de
tract from his well earned strength
with the masses by the circulation
oi erroneous reports as to his can-
d'dacy. In some Instances they have
whispered that he was not a candi
date in good faith, and had with
drawn; all in the hope of withhold
ing from liim thousand* who woul<
gladly vote to add his name to th<
delegation at Washington. Mr. Mur-
ray has so far piid no attention c
these faked reports, but he now eays,
lest some of his loyal supporters
might be influenced by such repe
titions, he announces with all the
emphasis his big soul Is capable Df
that never was he more in earnest
i'i a campaign In his life, than in
hi« aspiration to be named as one
of the progressive democrats who
will go to Washington from Okla-
homa next March to join hands with
the twentieth oentury spirit of re-
constructing these United States i-t
the interest of the plain, struggling
masses,\ and if possible wrest from
the clutch of arrogant greed the last
lope of the Iiosses for class control.
Though unable to make as expen-
sive, vigorous and determined per-
sonal canvass, as has always bee
his p'easure, Mr. Murray feels th,u
he has already won a place in the
hearts of the great majority of th*
progressive citizenship of the stat-,
to warrant him their unfaltering
6tipport in this contest without any
personal assistance on his part. Anil
1 is a fact that no campaigning
should be necessary this year on
the part of "Bill" Murray, as he
| Is known to the thousands. The
only question of his leading all the
candidates for congressman at largj
in the democratic primary lies r
the over confidence of his friendB
If each and every one of his de-
neariy unanimous as possible,
the feat will near the accomplish-
ment. As a member of congress no
one questions for a moment tha:
"Bill" Murray will see to" it that
Oklahoma retains its place on thj
map. Added to this the iact tha-
Mr. Murray is closer to Bryan than
any other man in Oklahoma, and as
close as any man, excepting Sena-
tor Gore, to Wilson, make him the
nore valuable to the democrats of
this state, If chosen to a seat in
congress.

near a path leading to the house.
Soon Ballinger appeared, and walked
right into Chief Hawk's shot-gun.
He gave up readily, with the re-
mark that "you have me, and I'd
just us well not worry." "I didn't
think you would look for me so closi

Just what to do when the kidneys
are affected, is a question, that con-
cerns both young and old. Weak
kidneys neglected in childhood lead
to life-long suffering. People of ad-
vanced years, with less vitality, suf-
fer doubly. In youth or age,' lan-
guor, backache, urinary irregualrity,
dizziness and nervousness make life
a burden
There is one remedy that actB di-
rectly on the kidneys. Doan's Kid-
ney Pills owe their world-wide fame
to the fact that they have cured
thousands of cases of sick kidneys
and cured permanently.
