Among the PugS.

ONCE George Siler published dope
story in Chicago paper in which
he attempted to show that Terry
McGovern had earned and kept nearly
100000 during his career as a fighter,
several sporting writer's have been at
tempting to figure up Frank Ernes
wealth. 1t has been estimated all the
way from $4,000 to $4,000. As a mat
ter of fact, Erne has about $4,000 to
show for his several fights. He did not
get the fabulous sum he has been "a-
ported to have received as his share
of the Madison Square Garden receipts
the other night Harry Brown, of this
city, who represented Erne and
counted up after the fight, showed
me the box Office receipt and 1t showed
that the amount taken in was $50, POO.
This sum was sulit between the club
and the fighters and Erne and McGov-
ern. therefore, received 1850 each as
their share.-Bufralo Times.

Bob FitZSimmOnS although he has

his defeat by Jim Jeffries, more than

Gus Rubin on Aug. TO- The Cornish
man is training at Bergen Beach for
his fight with the Akron Giant" He
has fitted up quarters short distance
from his home, and is working as he
never worked before i'm preparation for
battle, says the Journal. Ruby Rob-
ert evidently has much respect for the
man who robbed Sharkey of his laur-
els, and if he fails to defeat the young
Ohioan it will not be due to lack of
discretion. Fitz knows that a victory
over Rubin would assure him a return
match with Jeffries for the champion
ship. Therefore, he looks upon his
coming battle as one of the most inn
pOrtant engagements of his career.
Champion James JeffrieS, while play
ing with a bulldog on the beach at At

| MCGovern on the same conditions un-
der which the MCGovern- -Erne match
was fought, Ever since the men be-
gan training for the coming fight they
have had this idea in sight, and have
been reducing weight, so as to see if il
is possible for them to get down to 12}
pounds. They are now under the light,
weight limit, 1873 pounds, and feel sure
that they can make 12S if McGoverI
will agree to take on the winner.

HE record of Pitcher Ralph Miller,
of the Hartford club in six sue
cessive games on the Hartford
grounds has not been equalcd

slightest doubt it will stand as rec
ord for the Eastern league for several
seasons to come. Up to the present
writing Miller has appeared on the
slab in six games for the club on the
local grounds. He has met Springfield
twice, and Montreal, Rochester and
Syracuse one game each. Springfield
and Syracuse were whitewashed. Ro-
chester and Montreal scored one run
each, both on errors, Springfield scored
two tallies on the second meeting and
worcester did the same. Five of the
games were victories for Hartford, the
last with Springfield being given to the
Ponies on errors. Not an earned run
has been scored on this twirling on
the local grounds this season. With
the exception of a game in Worcester
and Springfield. when his team was
whtewashed Miller has not lost a
game except by one run.-Hartford

A Remarkable Horse.

rRANK HOLGATE, of Pittston, has
returned home from an extended
trip in Canada, where he had
gone with his famous running horse,
DR.. Larice, having had the animal en-
tered in a number of races. The horse
became suddenly lame and Mr.. Hol-
gate was compelled to withdraw him
from some events at Hamilton, Ham
burg and Toronto where large purses
were concerned. The horse has been
shipped from Canada and is now being
treated by a veterinary surgeon on
Mr.. Holgate's farm at CoXton, at the
foot of Campbell's Ledge.
DR.. Larice is a handsome bay, six
years old, of medium size. He is trim
ly built, a perfect picture in fact, and
is a beautiful steed in every sense of
the word. His limbs are 1.-THE ana
clean-cut and there is not an insight
ly curve or point about him. His head
and eyes denote intelligence and show
that he is we'll and finely bred.
The horse was sired by the famous
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1900-07-28

Strathmore and was bred by John
STRATEGY, the well-known horse breeder
of Virginia. At the horse show in
Madison Square Garden in 1897 this
animal took first prize with ease in
the hurdle, high jump race, clearing
a hurdle at feet 2 inches.
Three years ago DOC" was sold on
the auction block at the American
Horse Exchange in New York city for
$4,000 to Mayor Nolan, of Albany.
One year later Mr.. Nolans son died
and he sold every horse in his ex-
tensive stables, except Doc" who
was sent TO New York city to await a
buyer from London. The buyer never
came and the horse was finally sold
in July, 1899, at the American Horse
Exchange for his board. Frank Hol-
gate was the purchaser and he secured
him at low figure.
