no uncertain fashion and from difficult
leaves he gradually drew the balls into
a corner only to lose them again on q too
confident position for himself At these
times he was frequently forced to break
the worries and then disaster followed.
His best showing was in the twentieth
inning, when by deft cue work, he gath
cred in a bunch of thirty-one buttons
and his next best attempt was in the
ffty-firSt inning when he nursed them
for nty-four caroms. PreSby made

Two coats of ice were made on the ST.

cold weather the surface freezes so hard
that it is almost Impossible to curl

On the other hand, when the weather

parts of Canada and the United States
agree that in moderate weather this rink
IS the best they have ever rolled a stone
on. This is because the ice cannot re-

Kinks are mushy, this one has ice lust

CHICAGO, Nov. 7.-sam Bolan, work

they are training. Al HEREFORD, the man
ager of the colored fighters. visited the
boys yesterday and he found them work.
ing for their respective bouts at latter
sails next Thursday night. Cans goes
against the Brooklyn terror, Terry Nc
Govern, and Henry Lyons meets Art
Simms. Both have hard jobs on their
hands and both appreciate the fact. They
are therefore working hard to get into
shape. HEREFORD appeared to be pleased
with the work Of the pair, and said when
leaving:
Neither boy needs watching. They
are great friends, and take a keen inter-
est in each others success. They urge
each other along and Bolan keeps them
busy, just to keep them from getting
rusty"
HEREFORD is strong in his faith in the.
ability of his proteges to cope with the
men they meet, and says he is willing
TO bet that he will draw the end of the
purse most desirable. He is confident
that Cans can make the weight, 1873, at
o'clock, and still be strong enough to
make Terry take the count before the
six rounds are closed. He thinks, too,
that Art Simms is not In it with Henry
Lyons, whom he considers the peer OF
i Ofl10y W1llle IN ms pest Gays.
Whether his judgment be good or bad
remains to be seen but true it is that one
of the hardest punchers in the ring is
Cans. True, Frank Erne beat him. but
many claim that this was due to acct
dent. He has improved since then, how
evr, and although Terry knocked out
Erne is a nondescript match, Cans is
still looked upon as a winner by those
who figure that his superior strength and
weight should make him an assured ia
vorite The handicap is against him,
for Terry is not an easy mark for the
knocker-out. He has been hits the jaw
and has but once been feazed. Cans is
working hard, Lyons is putting in good
licks, and will try to show that he is in
the same division in his class than Cans
is in his.
