Boyd, who was elected Governor of
Nebraska, for writ of error to the Su-
preme Court, to test the questions in
yolved in the decision of a majority of
the Supreme Court of Nebraska, who de-
cided that he was not an American citi-
zen, and, therefore, not eligible to the
office of Governor of Nebraska. The Su-

it is the intention of Boyd's counsel to
move to advance the case on the docket

effort will be made to have the case
argued that day, or have a time fixed for
hearing at the next session.

skirt dancing and abandon in terpischo-

by any corps de ballet. The scenery is
handsome, much of it brilliant; the
transformations clever, and the tricks of
clown and satanic imp all well given. 1t

New York League Team.

1--WE will have the entire team signed
inside of ten days. said one Of the di'
rectors of the New York Club to re-
porter five days ago. There is as much
show for this to come to pass in the re-
naming five days as there is for the
Players League to be resusciated.
There is going to be trouble. The
players will be at the bottom of it, just
as they were beneath the outbreak last
year. This time it will not be on ac-
count of Elusive prize money, imagi-
native division of gate receipts, and
each player his own boss, but because OF
a cut in salaries.
The salary of the club for this coming
season will be larger by several thou
sand dollars, than ever before. This.
too. in the facts of the uncertainty that
base ball will be as successful, financial
ly, as in the season previous to the last.
For the players not already signed a
talary limit of $4,000 has been establish
ed and will be lived up to.
GlaSScock has three years compact
which calls for $1,000 salary. The
figures in Welch's are $500. Denny
also has three years contract, his sal
airy the same as Glasscock'S. Herman IS
three years contract brings him $4,000

Murphy have personal contracts for two
years longer at 81, 500 and $4,000 re-

viding the club can buy them off. The
others, with the possible exception of

Ewes Daughters as "Pugs."

The Cincinnati TinleS-Stdr says: leila
Fillmore is one of the latest recruits to
the very small company of pettcoated
pugs. There is something revolving in
the idea of women in the prize ring.
The gladiators do not mind crooked
noses, lumpy ears and little things like
that. They are the souvenirs some
times of victory, sometimes Of defeat.
The spectacle, however, of two daugh-
tiers of Eve pounding each other does
not SAVIOR of sport. leila Fillmore Is
not pretty, but she claims she can whip
any 142-pound woman in America for
$3.50 TO $1,000 side.
Anna Schoen, a Kansas City dame,
the wife of saloon keeper there, thinks
she can stand Miss Fillmore on her
head. and declares that she is willing
to meet her in finish fight, bare
knuckles or gloves. She stipulateS
that the contest take place at one of the
New Orleans athletic clubs. Mrs.
Schoen is twenty-three years Of age,
wears bangs, but is not short haired
like the girl whose challenge she has
accepted.

ed his willingness to fight the winner of
the Mccarthy and Dixon fight for 81 COO.
Billy Bingham, of Toronto, is TO pack
him.
When Bat MatterSOn told Fitz. the
night before the fight. that he was
afraid he would sell out, Fitz said: Il

Jim Hall. and | kept my agreement for
the sake of the money that ! needed.

or three times in his fight with kirain
because of the latter'S determination.
Charley Mitchell, near the close of the
fight, ran over and yelled into Sullvan's
face: "Say Sullivan. will you give us a
present to quit?" Before MuldoOn could
say a word or clap his hand over Sulli-
vans mouth, he shouted so that his
hackers at the ring side could hear him:

There is a different story to the foot
race at Brownsville last week, wherein
Martin" was forced against the tape
his hackers.
James Cherry. the Charleston, W. Va.
runner. was in town Saturday In com
pany with a Charleston sport, who'lS
posing as his hacker.
A big roll of money which Cherry had
in his pocket made him feel good and
he said to one friend on the quiet; This
fellow with me is hunting satisfaction.
He is my hacker just now, and here Is a
big roll of money which he once owned.
| took him up to Brownsville last week
and told him TO back me to lose in a
race with Kerr. who was going as Be
th,me." Well. the Brownsville boys
didn't want me to run behind and when
things were arranged | was anxious to
win. So YOU see the forcing against the
tape was only bluff. The Brownsville
bows did that to square me with my
hacker.
The latter isn't on yet, and won't be
until we secure more of his cash. Any
man who dabbles with foot runners
must take the consequences.
Cherry is now one of the most success
ful ringers in the country.
