Joe Cans Fails to Whip His Three
 Men. "

Baltimore, July 16.-Joseph Cans learned last night that it is hard task to knock out three men in eigh- teen rounds. He had agreed to beat three lightweights each in six rounds, at Ford's theater, but failed to carry out the contract in one bout.
 All but one of his opponents stayed the stipulated six rounds, although they were badly punished. Kid Thom- as made the best showing, but he only was saved by clinching throughout the last two rounds.
 Gans's first opponent, Harry Berger, only required one more punch when the bell announced the end of the bout. John DOnahue only lasted two rounds. He would have been knocked out but the police interfered. On points Cans won each bout easily.
 Harry Berger of Philadelphia was the first man to meet Cans. The negro lightweight took things easy for the first two rounds. In the third Cans cut loose and sent Berger to the floor with left to the jaw. The Philadel- phia man managed to stay the round and came up for the fourth apparently fresh.
 { Cans inflicted severe punishment in the next two rounds, but failed to knock out his opponent: He punched Berger at will during the last minute of the sixth round, but the latter was well trained. According to the arti- cles of agreement no decision was ren- dered.
 Cans did not appear tired when he faced John Donahue, another Phila- delphia lightweight. He took no chances with Donahue, and started right out to finish the job. .He had Donahue staggering at the closesof the first round. A right hook to the jaw sent him to the floor. He staggered to his feet after eight seconds. but was not allowed to continue. The police interfered, as it was certain that Don ahue could not have lasted another minute.
 After a rest of about ten minutes Cans again appeared in the ring, this time to meet Kid Thomas. promising lightweight. Thomas made favora- ble showing in the first round. but it looked as though Cans was waiting.
 Cans landed several hard blows on the head in the second round In the third Cans rushed Thomas to a corner and landed two hard uppercuts He followed with stiff left to the jaw and Thomas seemed to be in distress.
 Cans cleyerly blocked several left swings in the fourth and followed Thomas around the ring. sending left and right to the body. Thomas was staggered by two lefts at the opening of the fifth round and he clinched to save himself. When the men were parted Cans rushed at Thomas and landed an uppercut. and Thomas again clinehed. The latter was very weak when he reached his corner. Thomas clinched repeatedly ill the final round.

WITH THE WHEELMEN.

According to cablegram received yesterday at the N c. A. offices Ill New York, Frank J. Denny, the Buifa- To rider, was beaten in the final of the worlds championship event for ana- teurs at Berlin. Denny easily won his heat. scored first in the semi-final, but lost in the final after a hard race. Den ny will return in time for the national championships at Buffalo, where lie will meet Marcus Hurley, the crack amateur of the metropolitan district.
 All previous indoor cycling records from one mile to fifteen miles were smashed by Will Stinson of Cam bridge, Mass, on the ten-lap track in Madison Square Garden last night. Stinson met Johnny Nelson of Chicago in a fifteen mile motor paced race, and from beginning to end rode at break neck speed, beating Nelson by about 675 yards.
 Fully 5000 persons sweltered in the big building, but they were so wrought up over the race that they forgot their discomfort in the excitement. Nell sons pacing machines became useless at critical points in the contest and the little Chicagoan lost nearly two laps in consequence, but he was beaten from the very start, and no matter how good the pace he had no chance against Stinson The summary:

of the spectators applauded willie the best people present were disgusted at the exhibition. Later in the game Mat thews threw the ball very close to the umpire's head, evidently trying to hit him. The ball had gone behind the back stop and Matthews had recovered it and in throwing it in he made the second attempt to hit the umpire. His work yesterday was not all commend able.
 The score and summary:

At Bristol.

Bristol, July 16.-Superior fielding and good eye for hitting at oppor- tune times was what made Bristol de feat the ex-champions from New Ha- ven yesterday afternoon. Eddy was in the box for the Bellmakers and Rainey of Portland caught. He played a good game. The great feature of the game was the wonderful work of the Bristol infield. An official umpire did not show up so Managers Canavan and Reisling agreed on having James Me Ginnis of Bristol officiate. His work was entirely satisfactory to both sides. The score:

Bridgeport, July 16.-It was an ex- citing game yesterday with New Lon- don, made more so by the features aside from the base ball playing. Schmidt disputed the decision of the umpire and was sent to the bench. Then Battam ran into the crowd to get q ball, was interefered with by spec tatOr and the spectator got punched. Battam was arrested, but was later re- leased, and Bridgeport won the game. The score:

All season tickets and passes issued by Manager Connor will be recognized under the new management.
 This afternoon Manager Harrington signed K. Fitzpatrick to play second base and he will probably captain the Waterbury base ball team. Peter Kiernan will be released.
 Three of Waterbury's players were fined for getting over the bay last Sun day in Mystic. They were paid off this morning by retiring manager Connor, and Weisbecker, Murphy and Kiernan found themselves minus some of their salary.
 Barcelona council, K. of C., having defeated Hendricken council, is now anxious to try conclusions with the Sheridan council players, and to that end they challenge the Sheridan fel- lows to meet them on the diamond. Unless the Sheridan players have lost the use of their good right arms and the brilliancy of their eyes. if game is played, we look for the downfall of the Barcelona players. Sheridan's IS record on the ball field since the days of 'S5 to 20 is one to be proud of. However, there is no record so good in base ball but what it occasionally meets with reyerses, and it may re- main for Barcelona to haul down the Sheridan banner.
 The schedule for the week is as fol lows:
 Tuesday--N Norwich at Derby, New London at Waterbury. Bridgeport at New Haven, Meriden at Bristol.
 Wednesday, Meriden at New Lon don. Bristol at Norwich, Waterbury al New Haven, Bridgeport at Derby.
 Thursday Meriden at Norwich, Bristol at New London, Waterbury at Bridgeport, Derby at New Haven.

deal more comfortable at home and
have been spared the risk of an en-
barrassing journey under exciting cir
cumstances.
'The president should have stripped
himself of all incumberances for such
a public trip, just as an army on the
eve of rapid advance orders the sick
and all non-combatants to the rear.
The success of the trip was in the
very outset weakly exposed to need
less and very obvious risk of failure
at any moment. The risk of Mrs. Nc
Kinley's presence ought to have been
avoided as carefully as the president
would have felt obliged to avoid it

When a Teller is Out of Job"
All Nature is sick from the heels to

She is all out of keller and out of re-
pair, RI
When Teller is out of job
Hain't no juice in the earth, or no salt
in the sea.
Hain't no ginger in life in this land of
the free,
And the universe, amt what it's crack

When Teller is out of job
What's the good of blue skies and of
blossomin' trees
When your boy has large patches on
both of his knees,
An feller's out of job?
Them patches, l say, look so big to
your eye
That they shut out the landscape and
cover the sky,
That the sun can't shine through
them the best it can try,
When Teller is out of job.
When a man has no part in the work
of the earth
He feels the whole blunderin' mistake
of his birth,
When Teller is out of job.
He feels he has no share in the whole
of the plan,
That he's got the mitten from Ma
lures own ham,
That he's a rejected and leftover man,
When Teller is out of job.
For you've lost your holt with the rest
of the crowd
And you feel like dead man without
any shroud,
When a Teller is out of a job.
You are crawlin' around. but you are
out of the game,
Yes, dead with no tombstone to puff
up your name.
You may hustle about. but you're dead

But he's left out behind, on the shell
