JOHNSON TO FIGHT HOPE
A WEEK AFTER FLYNN GO
LAS VEGAS, N. M., June 4.—Jack
Johnson is so sure of victory in his bout
with Jim Flynn on July 4 that he has
begun to plan for the fights he will have
after the Independence day battle. After
sparring twelve rounds with his partners
Johnson decided that it would be good
fun to dispose of the crop of "white
hopes.” After the Flynn battle he an
nounced he would meet, a "hope" every
week until he had disposed of them all.
He followed the usual training program
yesterday.
Over in Jim Flynn’s camp there are a
lot of people who don't believe Jack is
going to have such an easy time. The
chorus is made up largely of Flynn's staff
of sparring partners. Most of the "pards”
are. laid up for repairs and Flynn has
been forced to discontinue sparring until
they are able to don the gloves again.

perhaps ten seconds or even less and
that many df the railroad accidents of
the country probably had been caused
by it.

LEACH CROSS BEATS AND
ALL BUT STOPS BROWN
NEW YORK. June 4. —Possibility of a
championship match loomed brightly be
fore Leach Cross, the Bow ry dentist, to
day, as a result of his victory over
Knockout Brown, the fast little side light
weight. in their ten-round boxing con
test at Madison Square Garden last night.
There was a tentative understanding that
the winner would likely be matched with
Ad Wolgast.
Although Brown set the pace through
out the bout, he did practically no exe
cution, while Cross stood off and shot in
deadly counters that had its opponent in
misery half of the time. Brown was
knocked down twice and in the eighth
round was nearly out.
The majority of Brown’s blows went
wild, while Cross seldom missed his mark.
The boys weighed in at pounds.
About 6.000 persons saw the mill.

Q c C NATURE’S
TONIC
The very great majority of persons need a tonic in the Spring or early
Summer. The system undergoes a change at this season and the entire
physical machinery Is disturbed. The general bodily weakness, a tired,
worn-out feeling, fickle appetite, poor digestion, a half sick feeling and a
general run-down condition of the system, show that the blood is weak or
anaemic, and a blood purifying tonic is needed to build up the deranged
system and enrich the blood. The use of S. S. S. at this time may save
you from a long spell of sickness, and it will certainly prepare you for the
long, hot Summer. Many people have put ft using a tonic until the system
became so weakened and depleted it could not successfully throw off disease
germs, and have paid for the neglect with a speh ot fever, malaria or some
other debilitating sickness. S. S. S. is Nature’s ideal conic It is a
composition of the extracts and juices of roots, herbs and barks which
science and experience have proven are best fitted foi a tonic to the human
system. It contains no minerals of any kind and is therefore perfectly safe
for persons of any age. S. S. S. tones up the stomach and digestion, rids
the system of that tired, worn-out feeling, and imparts vigor and strength
to every part of the body. It purifies and enriches the blood, stimulates
the secreting and excreting members to better action, quiets the over
strained nerves, and makes .one feel better in every way.
