and will do much to prevent boxing
altogether. One of the main things
that makes death in the prize ring fire.
quent is the fact that a fighter, al
though he may be organically sound
when he takes up the boxing game as
a profession, often let's dissipation and
the riotous living incident to victory
undermine his strength and vitality.
This goes unnoticed for long time,
and many fighters with weak hearts
and impaired circulation live to a green
old age and finally die Of natural
causes.
The cases where fighters have been
killed are of course exceptional, but it
has been the exceptions which have
caused the legislation against the
game. The two deaths recorded in yes
terdays papers, will again arouse
much comment and athletic exhibitions
of the future in Ohio cities, of which
boxing matches are a feature will be
few and far between.
WERNER'S REORGANIzED.
The Werner base ball team has been
reorganized and placed under the
management of Jack Giffen, and will
play the remainder of the games of
the season under his management. A
game has been arranged for with the
East End team and the contest will
be decided on the Silver lake grounds,
Saturday afternoon. The Werner
team, through its manager challenges
any team in the city to a game or series
of games.
ACCEPTED KENT'S CHALLENGE.
At meeting of the Akron Gun club
which was held Wednesday night, the
challenge of the Kent club was ac-
cepted and the Kent club will he no
titled of the acceptance. No date has
as yet been set for the match and the
matter will likely be postponed for
sometime. The reason for the special
meeting was the fact that the next
regular meeting of the club will not
take place until September and the
match will probably be shot before
that time. Nothing further was de-
veloped with reference to the meet
ing of Northern Ohio Gun clubs which
Is being spoken of with favor by mem
bers of the Akron club and other or
gaDizations.
BOWLERS BUSY.
Bowling on the local alleys has be
gun to pick up. The proprietors OF
each of the alleys reports that the
bowling clubs have got together and
that dates for the alleys are already
being sought. Bowling for the season
at the Grand alleys will probably be
gin with match game between the
Grands and Cleveland team the first
week in September Alleys have beer
planed and polished, new paint anG
varnish has improved the appearance
of the various places and this winters
bowling season will be as busy or buster
than any since the beginning of the
games popularity some years ago.

PARK IMPROVEMENTS.
Plans for the Aquatic Gardens APP
proved-Plans for an Extensive
Menagerie Completed.

Landscape Gardner Edgerton, OF
Philadelphia, who is under contract to
prepare plans for and supervise the
work of improving Nay Aug park. was
in this city yesterday with the plans
for the aquatic gardens and for the
animal houses, and grounds surround
ing them.
The plans for the aquatic gardens
were approved by Director of Public
Works Roche, after a careful cXami-
nation. The pond which is at present
located at the left of the main entrance
to the park, is to be enlarged by about
one-third of it's present size. \ high
wall is to be constructed around the
edge, and outside this walk will be
laid out. There will he beds Of water
flowers arranged in the corners and
in the center of the pond, which will
be supplied with water from the
Scranton Gas and Water company's
plant.
These plans also include arrange
ments for the Improvement of the
grounds surrounding the pond and for
the erection of vine-covered arbor
about fifty feet square to the west of
it. The specifications will be immc-
diately prepared by Mr.. Edgerton and
as soon as this is done bids will be
asked for, so that the work can be
begun at once. Director Roche yes
terday estimated the cost of this i'm
provement at about s., 800
The plans for the menageric have not
yet been approved. but they probably
will be today. after Director Roche has
suggested a few changes. The plans
provide for a deer paddock 260 feet
long by 125 feet wide. with deer
house 2OXl6 feet in size.
Beyond the deer park an animal
house, 80 feet long by 50 feet wide,
will be constructed. There will be ten
cages 70" the animals on one side of
this. while on the other will be a rep
tile case and an avary for birds. In
the grounds surrounding the animal
house. provision is made for an open
air aviary, and for a pool for water
fowl.
1t has not yet been decided whether
work on the menaGcrie will he COM
menced this year or not, but Director
Roche said yesterday that it was very
likely that it would
