Tommy Ryan Knocks Out Frank How
sun In Fourteen Rounds.
CHICAGO, Dec. l3.-Tommy Ryan is
still the champion weller weight of the
world. He retains the title after q
fourteen-round fight with Frank
Howson, OF Sheffield, England, fought
near here. this morning. From pro
fessonal and scientific standpoint the
contest was beauty. The battle was
remarkable for fairness not call Of
''foul" was heard, not an advantage was
taken, not an angry word was exchanged
by the contestants. Ryan emerged
from the fight unscratched, while his
opponent has one eye nearly knocked
out and one cheek laid open. Howson,
while as quick as cat, was handi-
capped by his inability to hit hard, and
too much training. Ryan displayed
best generalship.
The fight was for $1,000 side and the
welter-weight championship. 1t was
witnessed by about 800 people. Ryan
was the favorte III the betting. George
Siler was referee. Harry Gilmore and
Tommy White were Howson's seconds,
and Jim Manning OF Buffalo and Henry
Baker of Michigan acted for Ryan.

Time was called at "a a. m, After
sparring for an opening Howson got in
a right-hander on Ryan's neck that
Jared him for a moment, the round
ending with severe left upper-cut on
the Englishman's cheek.
In the second round Howson recei we'd
a blow on the cheek from Ryan's left,
and countered on the latter's eye. Ryan
gave his opponent two rib blows, and
when time was called Howson seemed
winded.
In the fifth, Ryan sent the English
man down with hard left-hander, the
round closing with three blows on How
sons ribs.
In the sixth, the Englshman planted
his right and left on Ryan's ribs, the
latter returning the compliment with
a blow that closed the EngIishman' 8
left eye.
In the seventh and eigth, Ryan placed
several severe short-arm let's on How
with several hard body blows, receiving
one good rooster himself.
In the tenth, evidently thinking his
opponent was getting tired, the Eng
lishman started with both hands, but

During the next three rounds Ryan
planted blows ON Howson's badly dam
aged eye and iacerated cheek. When
the thirteenth round closed Howson's
eye was entirely closed. In the last
round. after Ryan received few right
hand swings on the ribs, he tented with
his right. AS Howson slowly turned
his face to dodge, Ryan gave his left
swing on the jaw. The Englishman
rolled up his eyes, gasped and sank to
the floor, completely knocked out.
While not rendered insensible, he was
so badly Jared that he could not get up,
and the fight was given to Ryan.
Ryan's next fight will be in San Fran
cisco with Danny Needham, for the
championship.

WORLD OF SPORT.
THE SACRAMENTO CLUB WINS ITS
OPENING GAME.
The Los Angeles Nine Put Up Wretched
Fielding Game-Gossip of Interest to
the Admirers of Sport.

Three times yesterday the Los An
geles club had the game won, only to
lose it in the ninth inning, thus dis
gushing the large contingent pulling for
the home nine.
The game was very cratic one after
the first three innings, and both teams
went to pieces at critical periods, but
the local team was determined to Guido
their northern competitors. Eight errors
were piled up by the short-stop and sec
ond baseman of the Los Angeles team.
There was Jonah hanging around the
short-stop. McAleer gave up in disgust
after making several ragged plays. Lob
man took his place, but this did not
help matters, as Pete signalized his re-
turn home by making several corky
errors.
1t was a shame that the Los Angeles
club gave such a wretched exhibition
of fielding as Cobb was in grand form.
The Senators could not find him until
late in the contest. He struck out four
OF the first five men of the Sacramento
club that came to the bat, and would
have certainly made an enviable record
if he had been given decent support.
1t was very pretty game for the first
few innings. In fact, no one reached
first base until the last half of the third
inning, anu then it was made on an
error
The rungetting began in the fourth.
McAleer got his base on balls. DUNCAN
made sacrifice hit, and McAleer scored
a little later on passed ball. Holiday,
who reached first on account of the
catcher's muff, scored on Decker's base
hit past the short stop. The visitors re-
sponded with one run. 1t happened in
this wise. McGuirk hit hard to
McAleer who made good stop, but
threw wildly to Decker, and as result
McGuirk went down to second and
scored on McCloskey's hit to right field.
Sacramento got in another on the
fifth and they afterwards never missed
the opportunity to score, thanks to the
blunders made at short stop. 1t was
five to three in favor OF the home team
at the end of the sixth.
The Senators tied the score in their
seventh venture. Los Angeles made two
in the eighth, thanks to Hassamer drop
ping Lohman's sky-scraper. The players
from Sacramento responded with two.
This tied the score again, Los Angeles
failed to make a circuit OH the ninth,
but the Senators did, aided by an error
OF the short stop and the game was all
over. The score follows:

crank, but one of the species who re-
quire muzzling when he gets among
people who do not care to hear baseball

digs up Manager Harris. Then he gives
Manager Harris painters about running
q ball team. If Sam had more money
he would buy out league franchise
and do the Robinson act. The other
day he was at headquarters chattering
as usual, when he was asked to pick
out a good ball team. After some
careful study Sam said: "In the first

Donald or Power for manager. Then
think 1 would get the following team:
Lehman, catcher; Blauvelt and Tyler OF
Los Angeles, pitchers; Decker, first

every other department OF the territorial
government, including the United States
and territorial courts and the territorial
library. Most of these departments now
have quarters in the new territorial cap

but the palace is still the official resi-
dence Of the governors OF New Mexico.
Seen from its courtyard, the antiquity
Of the building is revealed despite hume
rous renoyatioms and repairs, in the fallen
plaster, the rough walls, and the adobe
roof, ON which the tall wild grass waves
in the breeze. Rooms built against the in
sideof the rear wall face the court, and
all this part Of the elitice undoubtedly
presents much the appearance that it did
in the days of the Spanish governors.
During the turmoiIs and invasions Of
nearly 200 years, the archives OF New
Mexico had been carefully preserved in
the palace through every mutation Of
power; but in the year OF 1870, W. \.

into the streets and sold as waste paper.
Grocers and butchers used the old state
