Plenty of Battles Promised.

It is, indeed, long time since so many prom
inent pugilistlc contests were arranged as there
have been this week. Some of them may not be
definitely fixed, but it is safe to say that they
will take place. No less than five encounters
were agreed upon by the California Athletic
Club few days ago. According to reports
from San Francisco the contests are as follows:
Pat Killen versus Joe McAuliffe, the Marine
versus Jack Dempsey, Jack McAuliffe versus
Billy Myer, Jimmy Carroll versus Jem Carney,
Griffin versus Tommy Warren. This is GER
tainly feast for those who have an admiration
for the manly art Probably the most impor-
tant of the proposed contests is that between
Carroll and Carney. OF course both are En-
glishmen, but Carroll is q deserter from the
English army and has no desire TO recross the
Atlantic and rush into the hands of the British
military authorities. The California club has
therefore offered a purse of 5000 for the two
men to fight to finish for. Carney will
be paid all expenses from England to Frisco
and return. This is, indeed, a tempting offer
and one which Carney is almost sure to accept
He cannot object to going to Frisco because
of fear of not getting fair treatment. The Cali
fornia Club will certainly see that not an un-
fair thing is done to him. will be surprised
If Carney is not very anxious indeed to accept
the offer, because it will appear to him that
Carroll will not be difficult mark for him. At
first sight it would really seem that Carney
would have little trouble in disposing of
man like ]. Carroll He is not young man
by any means and until recently has not been
generally considered an out and out frstclass
man. He is a plucky man, however On the
other hand Carney is well into the thirties and
the contest will be under Queensberry rules.
This will help Carroll considerably as Carney,
under prize ring rules where he could hug his
man would certainly make short work of Car
roll. 1t may be that Carroll is of opinion that
his hope lies in Queensberry rules. However
if this is SO he may be deceived. 1 am at pres
an af n
and never will, bar accident, see the day when
he'll defeat Carney.

McAuliGe and Killen.

1t seems interesting to patrons Of the ring to
see Joe McAuliffe come to the front again.
For time it has looked as if Peter jackson
had sent McAuliffe into permanent obscurity.
However, the exploded California wonder is ap-
parently himself again and is willing to test
conclusions with Pat Killen. A contest be-
tween these two men will be interesting in
many respects, but chiefly because il will
probably give us an idea as to what jackson
really is. He soon demolished McAuliffe, and
if the latter should happen to upset Killen
effectively, we may then be inclined to think
Jackson the wonder that some of his friends
say he is. say he may" because there are
many people who have only poor opinion
of Killens pugilistic abilities. He certainly
is not an accomplished artist In the science Of
slugging, as it Is termed. This may sound
strange in view of the fact that all the reputa-
tion he possesses as pugilist has been earned
in glove contests. The fact remains, however,
that he is 3 very slow man, and often. am in
clined to think that he lacks that amount of
pluck necessary for good man. He certainly

without doubt that team is playing a very

More Light Wanted.

A petition has been signed by some of the
leading taxpayers, which will be presented
TO the city council at its next meeting,
calling attention to the lack Of sufficient
light, sewerage and police protection in the
neighborhood Of Railroad and West Bouud-
airy streets. The attention of members of
the old council was called to the needs of
that section and nothing was done. The
petition prays for an electric lamp at Rail
road and West Boundary streets which is
set down as about the darkest place in the
city, and at a point where the travel is
great from the Louisville and Augusta roads
and the Ogeechee canal, and with no light
nearer than West Broad street.

The Government Collecting Informa-
ton on the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts.
Mr. William d. Ravenel, agent of the
United States fish commissioner for the
South Atlantic coast, while here this week
visited the Ogeechee and other waterways,
on his mission of obtaining statistical and
other information to be embodied in his
report TO the department as to the fisheries
in the district over which he has charge.
1t is understood that his inquiries were
mainly direc ed toward learning what fish
Of commerce are decreasing in supply and
how the waters may be replenished with
such species as are drawn upon for the
market.
Mr.. Ravenel was not inclined to talk for
the press, as the department found it nee
essary to restrict its agents from a too free
expires ion of opinion on matters pertaining
to their Investigations owing to the fact
that the department had been embarrassed
by statements of some Of its agents, which
were unauthOrizedly held to have official
weight and oftentimes to the chagrin of
the party interviewed, at variance with his
expires ions Mr Ravenel was expected to
leave for Charleston last night.
The government is taking quite an inter
est in the fisheries OF the Atlantic and Gulf
coasts, as the activity of its agents indicates,
and the United States steam schooner Fish
Hawk, bound on a mission to Investigate
the mullet fisheries, passed Iybee last week
on her way to Charlotte Harbor, having
Apalachic9la, Pensacola, Mobile and New
Orleans as her objective points The Fish
Hawk came to anchor at Charleston, Tybse
roads and at the principal sounds along the
South Atlantic coast, where the habits of
the mullet we're watched narrowly by ex-
perts in that line.
