Mccoy Looked Well.

The fight between kid" Mccoy and
Peter Maher is not off. 1t will take place
the last week of December or the first
week in January This was agreed to
by the principals and William A. Brady
Mccoy, when he attended the meet
ing in New York recently, looked well
and professed nearly to have lacovered
from his indisposition. Mccoy called
on Brady and requested that the battle
with Maher, which was originally
scheduled for Dec. 2, be postponed! for
three weeks. This was satisfactory 10

The suggestion that he was afraid of

Hanlon and Syndicate Ball.

In Baltimore last week Hanlon ex-
pressed his views upon syndicate base
ball and incidentally paid his respects
to President Soden of the Boston team
as follows: Il do not believe in what
is called syndicate ball. l think the
ownership Of the seven clubs should
be distinct; but there is vast amount
of canting and hypocrisy in this mat
ter. The syndicate business was forced
upon US. We would gladly have parted
with our interest in the Baltimore club
last year, and I believe that separate
owners for the clubs would be the best,
for the game. The syndicate owner
ship, no doubt, was objectionable; but
I will leave it to the public to judge
whether or not we in Baltimore and
Brooklyn made the best of the stua-
ton, as it was forced upon us. After
the season opened we made Baltimore
and Brooklyn as distinct as any two
clubs in the league Although, at one
time we We're sorely pressed for play
ers in Brooklyn we did not call upon
Baltimore for a single man, but spent
large sums of money in buying players
from other sources. The Baltimore
club was allowed to keep and develop
from Brooklyn, and I will leave it to
any one who saw the games to judge as
to the intense rivalry between the
| teams. Now, l want to call your at
tention to another aspect of syndicate
F., ball, which has not received half the
attention ii deserves, particularly in
view of the recent structures of Mr.

know, Mr.. Soden owns a large interest
in the New York club. Well. last fall.

! needed Strengthening, what did Mr..
Soden do? Why, he went over to his
New York club and had Meekin, the
Giants great twirler transferred to
| Boston without paying a sou! That

And yet the pious Mr.. Soden poses as

Addison MI. Kelly,

When it was finally announced that
Garny Cochran would not accept the
position of coach to ,California's team
for a third season the leading question
was: who will take Garnys placer
Almost instinctively all eyes turned
toward Ad Kelly, who had been Coch-
rams assistant throughout the season.
And although them after has not been
definitely settled, nevertheless, the
strong probabilities are that Ad, or
king" Kelly, as he is called at Prince
ton, will rule California's gridiron for
co.
Coach Kelly's football career began
at Banard's school in New York city.
Here Kelly was prepared for college,
years as left hafback. In 80 Kelly
entered Princeton college, and played
his favorite position on the varsity
team his freshman year. He was in
every big game of that year, and was
considered a phenomenon. Kelly also
played left halfback for Princeton in
SO and 81. but also during those two
years he was a member of the ALL
America team, being regarded as far
and away the best halfback in Amer
lea. He has the enviable reputation of
having never failed to make his dis
lance against any odds when running
with the ball.
Coach Kelly's work with the Cali
fornia backs has been invaluable. He
has relieved Cochran from all care of
the men behind the line this year. and
their wonderful improvement is due to
his efforts. Kelly Is a tireless worker

~ is well liked by the members of the
team and very popular with the stu
dent body.

D. j. Tobin of San Francisco, who

Ansnn Predicts.

While the talk of war between the
National and American leagues is in
progress, Arson does not hesitate to
say that there is big game of bluff go
ing on somewhere In speaking of the
American league, Arson admitted that
after all there may be something in the
reports that the American will locate
in Chicago. He argued that the pre-
tended opposition of the local National
league club to the entry of the Amer
lean league was simply a bluff on the
part of President Hart. He said that
as A. G. Spalding and others had re-
fused him Western league club in Chi
cago, the owners of the local club Were
not willing now to stultify themselves
in giving consent to other parties. An

| has proved the most successful from
a financial standpoint in the history
of college athletics at the University
of California. For this noteworthy
achievement the greatest credit must
be given to I. j. Muma who last spring
was elected manager of the football de-
partment.
Mr.. Muma was prepared for college
at the Oakland high school, where he
held several positions positions among
his classmen. He entered the univer-
sity in 49, and in the following year
was elected manager of the Daily Cali
fornian, the leading student newspaper.
In his Junior year he was elected man
ager for the Blue anad Gold Annual
cept the position of assistant football
manager.
Last spring Mr. Muma was chosen
regular manager to succeed E. J.
Brown, who had been Californa's first
successful manager. Mr.. Muma at
once entered upon his duties in the
most earnest way, and spent his entire
vacation in search of new football ma
terial and in finding a coach. For the
latter purpose he took a trip to New
Mexico after Garny Cochran, and it
was through his efforts alone that the
great coach was induced to come ba ok
to California
Mr.. Muma combines great business
sagacity with untiring energy. He is
shrewd and far-sighted, besides hav-
ing the unusual faculty of keeping
from his right hand the business of his
left hand.

NJofFatt-Gardner Match,

Jack Moffatt, the hard-hitting middle
weight of Chicago, who is regarded as
a coming man in his class, will make
his New York debut at the New YORK
Athletic club, where he will face George
Gardner Tom ORourkes New England
boxer, in 25-round bout on Dec. Il.
Both men being rugged fighters and
extremely clever with their hands,
should put up very interesting battle.
Moffatt gave Tommy Ryan something
Of an argument for 20 rounds at Daven-
port, Iowa, and although Ryan Won,
he admitted after the fight that Moffatt
was a much faster fighter than he had
given him credit for, and expected him
to beat many a fighter who is looking
for championship honors.
John P. Dunn, who has charge of the
placing of all the English boxers, IN
the interest of W. A. Brady and the
Coney Island Sporting club, has sue
ceeded in matching Will Curley of New
castle-on-Tyne to meet Terry Meow
ern in a 25-round contest, 121 pounds, at
o'clock. The date has not been set
tied upon, but the match is fixture. :
Austin Gibbons. who was considered
in the late sos to be worthy of light
weight championship claims, is caval-
ry soldier in the Philippine service.

Catarrh.

Catarrh is one of the most obstinate
diseases, and hence the most difficult to
get rid Of. ,
The disease is in the blood and all the
sprays, washes and inhaling mixtures
in the world can have no permanent ef4
feet whatever upon it. Swift's Specific

only remedy which can reach the dis
ease and force it from the blood.

A Surprise.


The news that Kid Mccoy has
broken down was as surprising to me
as it was to other people. writes Ma
lachy Hogan. l did not believe the
first reports, but Of course the doctors
statements make it plain that the clev-
er kid" is in trouble. Men who saw
Mccoy in New York at the time Of the
big fight assure me that he never looked
in better condition in his life. He
weighed apparently about 1853 pounds
and seemed to be about ready to do
what he has wanted to do so long-get
into the heavyweight class good and
strong. It's too bad to see so clever
a boxer go wrong physically. He GER
tainly could not have been in better
hands than up at William Muldoon's
farm, and some old weakness must
have cropped out. On the face of the
present reports few will expect Mccoy
to get ready for Peter Maher by Jan.
l, as he now says he wants to do.

Finally it was brought
