Mar8hall-Callagher Match Looks Like
a Fake,
And the "Mets" Refuse to Consider
It-Results of Bowling Games
Last Night-Other Sport.

The officials Of the Metropolitan Ath-
letic Club have made an excellent
start in refusing to consider PROPOSE
ton to pull off the Observation-Disclosures
contest at the Fulton club house. That
match was made under very suspicious
circumstances. and the club very prop
erly declined to open negotiations Tor
it. Gallagher certainly could not get
in condition within two weeks, and 1t
is not at all likely that any bona flde
wager was made on the result 1t
looked very much like an effort TO Sc
cure a division of the club purse by
means of fake boxing. Now that the
club has refused to nibble at the bait,
it is not at all probable that the men
will ever come together.
The Hobbs-LeOnard match, for
which articles have been signed, may
take place under the auspices of the
Nets" There is a popular desire to
see d contest between Tim Seaman, the
big Pittsburg boxer, and "Yank' Ken
ney. formerly of this city. All efforts
to complete arrangements for the
match have proven fruitless, owing to
the difficulty in securing communica-
ton with Kenney.

Women to Act Us Jurors.

ped into court the other morning was,
"What has become Of the breach Of prom
Use suite" When told that it had been
compromised and ordered dismissed by
Strivers, the plaintiff, he said:
81 will not take notice Of any such
settlement. The case will have to be
tried, and that by a jury composed of
one half of women and the other half of
men. ] have been looking forward to the
trial Of this case with a great deal of in
terest. and i: will be settled in no other
way than by a trial"
This is the case in which ". G. Striv-
ers sued Miss Catherine West for not
fulfilling her promise to marry him, and
which has created widespread interest
throughout the length and breadth Of
the country. 1t was decided at first to
try this case with a jury composed ez-
~olusivcly of women, but after reconsid-
ering the matter the judge came to the
conclusion that, as the plaintiff was a
man and tho defendant a woman, the
proper thing to do would be to try the
case with six mel and six women.-St.

It has been thoroughly tested in the
