Defeated Tim Callahan in Eighteen
 Rounds at Louisville
 Louisville Dec 11--In one of the speediest battles of the year Dave Sul- livan of Ireland and Tim Callahan of Philadelphia met here last night at the Southern A. C. in fight scheduled for twenty rounds. In the eighteenth round Callahan was disqualified. He was outpointed and received stiff gruelling. There was preliminary bout of ten rounds between "Shang" Parret, the ''Terrible Dago.'' and George Shuh, both of this city. They came together at 133 pounds. shuh got the decision. It was not long be- fore the principals of the night took their corners. Sullivan's seconds were Willie Charleton, Harry Charleton and Patsy Grubbs. Callahan's esquires were Billy Roache, George Cain. Kid Hubert and Miles Brooks. They weighed in at 3 o'clock in the after noon at 124 pounds. The men had an impromptu scrap while waiting to weigh in. Sullivan was on the scales with the beam bobbing up and down. Callahan contended that Sullivan was overweight and Il hot argument en- sued. When Callahan approached in q stopping position to inspect the scales Sullivan struck out with the right and landed on Tins jaw. think ing that Callahan was advancing in q hostile attitude. Before further dam- age could be done the men were sep arated. It did not take long before the boys began real business. They set fast clip and punched away viciously. In the third both fell to the floor in q clinch. In the fourth Calla- han had Sullivan's left eye puffed from repeated jabs. Despite this Sul- livan was the aggressor in the fifth and sixth rounds Dave hammered away at Callahans kidneys. while Tim retaliated with jabs and soon had Sullivan bleeding from the mouth
 Callahan came up slow for the sev
 enth and eighth rounds. In the tenth Callahan smashed Sullivan hard and had the Irishman in trouble. Sullivan did not give his opponent any breath ing spell in the eleventh and twelfth rounds. Both went down in a mix-up Sullivan then sent Callahan through the ropes twice with a left on the face and a right on the head. Tim was in q bad way and in another mix-up both fell out of the ring. In the thirteen tn Sullivan fioored Callahan with a swing on the jaw and the Quaker took the count From this round until the seventeenth Sullivan had Callahan guessing. In the eighteenth Callahan rushed from his corner and after clinching deliberately threw Sullivan l with a thud to the floor. He was cau- 1 toned. Callahan evidently forgot the warning, for in another mix-up he l grabbed Dave around the neck with the right and swinging him over his i hips brought Sullivan down. Then Referee Hurst disqualified Callahan.

 The New Haven Palladium has this account of last nights game in New Haven: The Blues lost their first home game to Waterbury last night, by the score of 6 to 1. Fox, the goal tend for the visitors, put up magniti- cent game, and his stops put him well up in the favor of the crankS. The entire Waterbury team put up an eX- cellent game. They played polo from start to finish. even if HoldernesS di;i play on his ankles most of the time. It was q fast game and every effort was made by the home team to cut down Waterbury's lead but without success. Bone was all over the floor and took every chance that came to him. but although he was well second ed by Canavan and Whipple Jason did not seem able to get into the game He caged three. out of four goals talk en by the Blues, it is true, but he had to be urged to get into the skirmishes continually. and when his support was most needed in the third period, he seemed to go all to pieces. and was evidently completely exhausted. La l tiOnS played a star game and made some of the most sensational stops o. 1 the year. The visitors were cheere( repeatedly during the game for thei team work and they deserved it. Tht summary:

We'll done Waterbury.

It is said that Janelle has jumped Lewiston and will play with Plymouth again. He doesn't seem to like the idea of playing goal. Plymouth is the place for him, anyway.-Brockton Times.
 That Rockland team has probably played it's last game in that city and will be transferred to Bangor. At Rockland the patronage has been de cidedly poor since the season began- Portland Press.
 Rusher Jason quit the New Haven team Saturday night because as he told his friends, that the polo writer of the. New Haven Leader did not praise him enough.-Hartford Post He played last night. How about that?
 The Waterbury Democrat with Fri day nights game in mind, says Lewis plays to the grandstand. -, Meriden Journal. Quite wrong, MT Journal man. the Democrat made no such statement. That was a "neighborly' dig.
 Springfield came precious near being the first to win in New Haven. Billy Aufort would have given considerable to have captured Fridays game. Hard luck, WiIliam.-Boston Herald Good luck. Messrs Jacques, Guest and Par sons.
 Davy Cusick tells some very inter- esting stories of his trip to Europe with a pleasing English accent. He is the only polo player who refused to go to Windsor castle or shake hands with the Prince of Wales.-Charley La tions's talk.
 The fall of the Maine league has been predicted for the near future, possibly before Christmas. The same prophet has it that the Southeastern will be strengthened all along the line at the same time in more ways than one.- Brockton Times.
 We have three tough contests for the rest of the week. Tonight we meet Hartford in the latter place, Wednes- day Springfield comes here and Fri day Hartford takes trip down this way. Two of those games, at least, should be victories.

It is said that John Roberts is to get into the game right away and that he will play with Lewiston.

 Waterbury Players Made Good
 Showing.
 It has been many weeks since the base ball season closed in the State league and many have wondered why the averages of the players were never published. The fact of the matter is that one of the towns in the league was slow in getting in the official scores. That town was Derby Sid hey w. Challenger of the Bridgeport Post. who has had charge of the work, has finally completed the averages and they are given below. It was a long, tedious task and by glancing over the names and figures, all interested can see that the work was well done. The following are the averages as com piled from the records of the official scorers:

days, when every town of any size

everybody who are interested in any
kind of advertising, there is no ex

the advertisement can be inserted
in the paper about as eheaply as it
can be printed on handbills and cir

are best able TO buy the articles ad

handful and the circular as cheap

less goods, and not one circular in a
dozen is ever read, or even picked
