MRS. FITZsIMMONs CONFIDENT.
She Says Her Bob VIII Surely Win the
Fight, She Knows 1t.

She Says Her Bob VIII Surely Win tho
Fight, She Knows 1t.
Fitzsimmons put in light day in hon.
or of the coming of his wife and did less
work than usual. From this time on
work than he has been doing. His
heavy work is over and he will do moth
ing but rough exercise to keep himself
good condition and keep up his wind
Yesterday in the latter part Of the
morning he sprinted up and down the
yard at Cooks ranch. Back of the house
there is a straighaway of 100 yards, and
Fitzsimmons would go flying down the
whole length and then turn sharply off
to one side and go tearing in among the
trees at the liveliest kind of pace. In
and out among the trees he would run
at top speed. trying to increase his
agility by making quick turns around
the tree trunks. He kept up this work
for the better portion of an hour and it
was hard work, too but when he quit
he was not distressed in any manner,
although breathing hard.
Mrs. Fitzsimmons took a journey
around the ranch yesterday morning to
see where her husband had been doing
greatly pleased with all she saw. She
said her husband was certain to win the
fight. Il never saw him look SO well,'
she said, and l know he will win the
fight surely. He looks better to me
than when he fought Maher the last
time, and I think he could have won
over Corbett at that time. Oh, Bob will
win the fight all right. / know he will
and / am never mistaken in such
things
In the afternoon Fitzsimmons did a
little work in the yard and then punched
the bag for half an hour. He did not
spend much time at work, however. and
hurried back into the house where he
put in the balance of the day playing
with his small boy. Dan Stuart was
on the street a couple of hours and de-
clares he is on the mend.
The arena is practically finished and
yesterday men were going through i,
| with pots of black paint. marking out
the seats. by which it is seen that one
man will be expected to settle himselt
| on eighteen inches of undressed lumber
| If he is very fat he will have to plane
| himself down or draw himself up a bit

Western Ease Ball League.

Detroit, March 10.-The Western Base
Ball league directors last night reported
their action upon the two questionable
drafting cases. In the Nicol matter the
board decided that President Wander
beck, of Detroit, was guilty of tamper-
ing with a player of the Milwaukee
club, and decreed that Vanderbeck, in
lieu of expulsion. pay fine of s100 to
the league on or before March Is. In
the Hahn case the board found that
Vanderbeck had drafted Hahn from
Mobile knowing that he had been prac-
tically contracted for by st. Paul. The
board decided that Hahn goes to st.

Of Corbett-Lanky Bob Has His Wife and

Arena Is Nearly Complete.
Carson City, New, March 10.-From
this time until the day Of the fight Jim
Corbett will lessen the work he Las
been going through in preparation for
be as heavy as anything he has gone
through up to the present time. but he
will take it easy on one day and harder
on the following day. He will alternate
the work in this manner until he has
finished his training. This course has
been decided upon by Trainer Charley
White. who is bit fearful that keeping
at the work and at one kind of work
too steadily will tend to make Corbett
tire of work or rather tire of the constant
repetition of the same work every day,
and grow stale"
Corbstt Is Fast on His Feet.
Said Trainer White yesterday: "Cor-
bett is the fastest big man on his feet
that 1 ever have seen. 1 have seen
Fitzsimmons in all his work. and I do
not think he is as fast on his feet as
Corbett. although Fitzsirnmons has a
side-step which is quick as lightning.
Anybody who thinks Fitzsimmons is
not fast on his feet is making a mis-
take; but at the same time he is not as
fast as Corbett. and whenit is considered
that Corbett is in some respects a larger
man than Fitzsimmons, it can be judged
that Jim must be a pretty clever man
in order to be faster than Fitzsimmons
and is just what he is. He is faster
by a good deal. In fact he is just
enough faster to lick Fitzsimmons good
and plenty"
Days Training of the Californian.
Corbett took to the road yesterday
morning for the first time since last
Friday and put in two and one-half
hours at it. After his return Corbett
took to the hand ball court where he
put in a short time playing ball with
his brother Joe. He then took his bath
and rub down and sat down to wait
for dinner. After this was over he sat
around the place until after 3 O'Clock
when he started in on the regular work
of the day. This was not one of the
easy days. He toiled at his little wind
lass until his forearms had lost nearly
all of their feeling, and then went in
for the bag, punching it for over twenty
minutes without letting up. Then he
hurried away to the hand ball court
where his four trainers, Jeffries, Nc
Vey, Edgren and Woods were waiting
for him, AMI he kept them very busy a:
they came at him, one at a time.

A GRAND SUCCESS.
The First Hagey Club Concert Draws
Crowded House.

The friends Of the Hagey Insti-
tute are in high gleo over the grand
success OF their initial concert and
literary entertainment at Y. M. @. A.
Hall last evening; aud tho members
OF the Social Club are deeply CRATE
full to the distinguished amateurs
who 20 nobly volunteered their
services. More especially to Mrs.
Montague-Turner, Mr.. Donald de V.
Graham, Mrs. W. w. Hall, Mr. r. G.
Monteagle, Mrs, Walbridge, Miss
Kate McGrew, Miss Love, Mr.. j. w.
Yarndley and Mr.. j. f. Brown are
their Heartbeat thanks rendered.
With such an array OF musical
talent presented, no wonder the at
traction was so great that even
standing room was at a premium
and a large number OF those who
desired to be present were forced to
go home disappointed, or to attend
the band concert at the Hawaiian
Hotel.
President Harrison is to be con-
graduated upon the success of his
program, and the reunion OF last
evening in furnishing a most de-
lightful evening will undoubtedly
benefit the cause in whose aid our
esteemed vocal and instrumental
artists volunteered their eminent
services.
