NEW YORK, July 25. Freddie Welsh, the latest tiling In champions, has vir tually retired from the ring for a year. Whllo the new lightweight champion has made no announcement to this effect In as many words, the 'Welshman has In timated an much. It Is Freddie's Inten tion to discard the fighting mitts and keep the ring resin off his shoes for the remainder of the current year nt least It took Welsh something like eight years to get a whack at the champion ship. He waited In lino for almost a dec ado, and now that he is In a position to name his own price, ho Intends to reap the full fruit of the harvest. Harry Pollok, whose publicity cam paign was so cleverly engineered that Ritchie was Inveigled Into fighting Welslt In the enemy's country, Is sponsor for the statement that Welsh will make an extended tour of Kngland, France and the continent, before ho returns to the nr FRANK O.

It Is said that an amount over twice the value ot the first prize had to be paid In order to assure the presence ot Leaker, Capo blanca and Rubinstein, leaving practically nothing to offer tho rest. It Is under stood that Lasker himself received no less than M.600 apart from what he won as prices. That the committee was quite helpless In this matter Is only too apparent. Its chief aim was to bring about one ot the greatest of modern tournaments. With prlio fighters making fortunes out of their profession, no one will begrudge the great chess masters whatever bonuses they may be able to command. Still, the sympathy ot the chess fraternity will go out to those of the masters who havo not been deemed entitled to equal favors. If It has coma to the point where chess experts aro to be paid for their services lrrerpectlve of whether or not they are prlzo winners, then surely those mastora who do not posses quite the same "Welt beruf" should not be permitted to leave empty-handed when fortune decrees that they occupy places low down In the list But, aa all tournament committees are fully aware, the raising ot funds Is a most thankless Job, and hat Its limitations. In the end, this question, like most others, must be solved by the law of supply and demand, but In the meantime the "strike' of tho masters referred to will not haw been In vain, if thereby future committees will be made to give more careful heed to their rights. As a matter ot Information, It may be added that America would not have been represented at St. Petersburg, although a sum of something more than POO was set aside ' for .Marshall's expenses, had not a committee ot.the Manhattan Chess club set to work and raised as much more for the American champion's family, which had to be provided for during his abeenoe. Of this committee Herbert R.' Llmburg was chairman, 'with O. W. ' Field as treasurer and V, .N. Stacy, the well known western player, aa booster-tn-chlef American Chess Bulletin. and he has na credentials to act for any one but himself. What will Interest more people Is thar plan outlined tor the control ot matches for tho world's championship, a program which, It Is said, has tho approval ot Dr. Lasker. Tho rules In contemplation pro vide thai matches tor tho championship be of not less than six to eight games up, with a time limit ot fifteen moves an hour, or thirty moves the first two hours. The title holder has the right to namq tho sessions of play, which must not be gin before 10 a. m.; nor later than 8 p. m. 'The playing time will be four hours a day If there Is only one session, or six hours If there are two sessions, one of four hours' and the other of two, with an Intermission of one or two hours. Tho champion need only contest the match on neutral ground; and It two places offer tho same terms, ho can exercise his option. He must be ready to defend his title within a year of the receipt of the challenge, and give his opponent three months' notice of the time of starting. If offense Is offered him by the challenger he need not play, provided tho ohamplon's objection Is upheld by tho president ot the -federation. With regard to tho flnanolal end of the match, the cham pion Is not obliged to play unless the match amounts to SCOOO,- 20 per cent of which belongs to the title holder as his fee, the remainder being divided between courage, the wonderful speed, the willing nature of this great black gelding, and nowhere Is there a horseman who believes Ai4w tiA nM.an, cm n...tlnn will there com. a horse who can equal the -rif . games. -'Lannln wonuvrcui ywiunDftnoo o. ill" imuiaK trotter.

Its "remarks on the subject are as follows; "In view of the fact that the four mem bers ot the British polo team which was recently victorious In the International match at Meadow Brook are officers of the British-army and. that the game ot polo .has now won for Itself a place among the sports of the United States array, perhaps the time has come for the arranging of a contest between the army officers of the . two , nations. . "Many games have been played. In eluding handicap tournaments and a cham plonshlp tournament without handicap. In the latter seven teams entered, four of them being from the Infantry. Out of the teams ot tho Fourth Field artillery and the Sixth cavalry alone, not to speak ot others, there Is material enough to make up a splendid team for Interna' I tlonal competition." 964 276 127 864 298 281 195 230 852 820 116 19 105 27 118 22 79 9 US 10 92 8 116 9 88 9 63 8 115 33 94 11 88 28 61 6 91 65 19 15 1 101 fl 101 19 67 5 72 11 66 4 91 5 15 1 77 14 12 .. 103 39 06 107 17 65 8 89 11 t281 97 9 .280 409 354 .345 .344 .843 .343 .830 .329 .823 .829 .827 .327 .321 .326 .333 .324 .824 .321 .819 .319 .819 .317 .313 .815 .814 .318 .818 .310 .306 .306 .306 .306 .303 .296 .295 .294 .294 .294 .293 .291 .291 .291 .291 .290 .288 .283 .283 .284 .2S3 2S3 100 101 90 63 71 Mitchell.

The reasons why 8. S. S., tfcs famous blood purifier, allmlnates Impurities are as latertatlng as they are Important, 80 many people actually seed a safe blood purifier that a knowltdge of ths ic tlon of S. B. S. will srre to clear up much ot tbe doubt existing today. Deeply biding In the small lymphatic pacts tbreughaut the system art burled germs that may have lain dormant for mouths, perhaps years. Through some cause such as a severe cold ths systtm Is la a low state of re. slstantt. Then Is ths time when tbe germ Jump at th opportunity snd soma form ot bloed trouble makes Its appear aaet. When the m aeons mtmbranes are In rolTfd we hsvs cold, catarrh, bronchitis, pneumonia and so on; It the gsaeral pro cess ot nutrition Is disturbed we hare rheu matism, Indlgeatton, haadachs or anemia. And whta the akin breaks out It shows how impurities havs affecttd the blood generally and that the dormant germs havs overcome aature and have the upper hand. Then ts tht time to attack disease germa vigorously with S. S. 8. The action of tats splendid purifier ts a powerful and sweeping aid to tbe natural tendency ot tht body to rid itself of all harmful gar ma. For it this wtrt not so, if nature bad not prevltled us with this wonserfit tendency, few It any cf us would lave sarvlTtd tht second weak ot lntaaey. Ths course ot S. 8. B. leads through tht vast network of lymphatic veins whtrela germs art attacked and held down or made captlrt la the tiny glands of tht lymphatit system. Herein Is tal help to nature for 8. S. S. so stimulates cellular activity that by varloas processes tht gems or Impurities art rejected by tht tissues and are Anally eliminated. Than there la tbe tompltx and extensive plan of mucous membranes lining all tht csvltles ot the body. Herein Is where poleonoui matter collects to be prepared or converted Into a substance to bt readily eliminated. This Is accomplished mainly by tht mucous membranes ot tht lungs, liver, kidneys and bladder and by tbe skin which is a modified form of mucous mem brane. 8. 8. B. has a most peculiar action tn stimulating these membranes to tht ex clusion ot hy;er-6ecretlons. Tbe well known catalytic action ot S. 8. 8. la Important Tbls means that tbe medicinal properties upon tattrlng the blood do not lott their Identity through changes, but continue a medical Influence until eliminated by tht varleas mune torles. The action of B. B. fl. by ataWals throughout the connective tissues dislodges those dlteast germs In hiding, calls upoa all the forces of tbe bdy to check disease and replace with new tlssae-balldlog as terlsls that which has broken down or has become Infected by dlseast germs. This la equally trne ot tboat unfortunate con ditions so often the effect of harsh drags. it la almply a question of getting tht blood clvii d and forcing nutrition wher ever tht damage seeds repair work. As ts well known 8. 8. 8. Is purely s vegetable preparation but contains a most wonderful lngredelnt to overcome blood Impurities and particularly eciema and all akin diseases. Oet a bottle ot S.
