Waterbury Democrat., 1901-09-05


 dleweight, made this discovery when he went to Hibing, Minn, not long ago to fight Jim Arnold.
 The. pugilists had just finished the first round of their argument when q smiling and urbane sheriff, 'accompanl- ed by d select body of deputies armed with Winchesters, appeared on the scene and requested the principals to stop playing The request was inn mediately complied with. and the az grieved spectators wended their way home disconsolate. But the next night the admirers of the manly art arosesto the occasion. g23
 There were no coaches, han dy, but several flat cars s,sstoodaemnty on q siding close at hand. ssA short talk with the railroad officials follow ed, an engine was counled to the fiat cars, and away went the train far into the heart Of the pine woods, carrying some 400 persons. who were bound to see a fight at all hazards. Fifteen rounds were fought con the turf, at the end of which the referee declared the bout draw. and the triumphant spec tators returned to Hibbing fully satis- fled with the result of their trip.

FIGHTS IND F|GHTE ERS.
Jim Jeffries is a Two nded Fighter But Not Aggressive.

He Has Laid Good Men Low With
 Either Hand-Ruhlin Has Not Shown
 Near As Much Cleverness- George
 Dixon Tells About All The Money
 He Has Made and Spent Railroad
 Company Helps Out Some Fighters.
 la an effort to guess what will be the result of the Jeffries Ruhlin fight, q frenzied person with q typewriter at his mercy has dashed off the following gems of thought:
 "A full left arm swing vs a jolting, star-p producing left jab are the top giants.
 '.Jeff. the champion. has the swing copyrighted in half dozen different languages.
 .Ruhlin has stamped his trademark on the cleanest cut 'iab' that was ever doped out in the pugilistic mart.
 Neither, strange to say, has right worth a bad penny in Widest Africa.
 "So, with nothing doing but a pair of swinging, jabbing lefts digging holes in the Frisco atmosphere the wisdom of Solomon-and 'tis said the sage was passing wise-could hardly hope to figure out the result.
 You've got to bet on left swing or left jab or you'll be camping out
 Eff either one or 'tother had a right blind man could figure out an Al handicap"
 It will astonish Champion Jeffries to learn that his right hand is mot worth a bad penny" Robert Fitzsimmons and Thomas Sharkey will also be as- tonished. Fitzsimmons has a dim recollection that a heavy right hand blow on the jaw from Jeffries sent him to dreamland at Coney Island. Shar- key is positive that Jeffries' right hand ed bombardment loosened couple of his ribs, and various other pugilists have painful memories of contact with Jeffries' right hand.
 The assertion that Jeffries uses full left swing is also calculated to arouse mirth. One of the best blows he hit FitZsimmons was straight left-hander on the mouth in the sec ond round that caused the old chap to sit down on the ring floor. As a mat ter of fact. Jeffries either ends his left straight or hooks it slightly, never using full arm swing. It was hook that brought Corbett to the floor in the twenty-third round at Coney Island Jeffries is two-handed fighter. but lacks the aggressiveness to carry a battle to his opponent.
 Ruhlin's celebrated iab is creature of imagination. The eoAkron Giant knows little except to rush in and paw the air with both hands. His defense is nil, as was proven by the Fitzsim- mons bout. Were Jeffries to rush in he should have no trouble in putting Ruhlin away in short order. The chances are, however, that Jeffries will put his left shoulder against his jaw, and wait round after round for an opening. The bout promises to be dull and uninteresting, and a draw would aStOniSl no one

AERIDEN DONNED AGAIN.
We Take the Last Game and
 the Series From Our Rival.

Bobby Durnbaugh's Curves Were Hammered All Over The Lot-No Sensational Features And Small Crowd-The Baseball By Electric Light Was a Fizzle of the Worst Kind-We Are Playing Our Last Home Game To-Day-ResultS of Other Games.
 Waterbury won an easy game from Meriden yesterday by batting Durn- baugh all over the lot 1t was the smallest crowd of spectators that has witnessed ball game since Manager Harrington has taken hold of the team It looked for time as though Meriden was going to win the game, but the boys had their eye on the ball and Bobby Durnbaugh was weary in the last inning and let down in his speedy pitching. There were no exciting fea- tures aside from the snappy double plays executed by the home team The score and summary:
Waterbury Democrat., 1901-09-05
Last, game at home today.

Last game at home to-day.
 We play in Norwich tomorrow and New London the next day.
 Manager George Harrington can raise his hand with Jim O'Rourke and swear that he has come out ahead of the game. It is strange but it is true nevertheless that Jim O'Rourke was the man that pulled him out of the wet, too, for that Labor day game was a purse filler and no mistake.
 'They had McPhee. Beckley and my self putting up $60,000 for the Mill waukee franchise." said Frank Ban croft of Cincinnati. yesterday. eff we had done that we would have been taken before probate judge to see whether We ought to be sent to an asylum" There's more interest in baseball, however, than there has been in five years. I notice this in the country towns, where the game is played more than ever this year. am able to judge from the number of applications we have had for exhibi- ton games"
 There is altogether too much talk about selling games in the Connecti- cut league. That sort of vague shoot ing in the air does the game no good. If our contemporaries in the Nutmeg state can prove that players there are selling games they will do the sport a service by exposing the dishonest play CTS, that they may be punished. But some of the Connecticut brethren cry Another game sold" about every time their favorite team is downed, and like the cry of Wolf" in the story the thing is being overdone and is getting ridiculous.-Brockton Enter prise. Correct to a dot.
 A telegraph dispatch. arrived at the ball grounds yesterday afternoon for one Al Lawson and if that dispatch called MT Lawson away from the city with his electric apparatus many peo- pie who put up their good coin last night would have been saved those coins. That electric ball game is the biggest bunco and gold brick swindle that has ever been invented. Water bury and the Watch shop teams were advertised to play game last night under the new lighting system, but it was the biggest kind of farce. It was electric light robbery and no mistake. About four hundred people were re lieved of their quarters and Lawson can now go to the next city for more easy ones.

During all this Nelson had not lost con- sciousness.

The Plungers Had Another Day at
 Charter Oak Park.
 Hartford, Sept 5.-The plungers had another field day at the Grand Circuit meeting here yesterday All four win ners were strong odds-on choices. The best price obtainable against any of the successful horses was 1 to 2N. All four events were disposed of in straight heats. The weather was fine and warm and the track good. though not yet at it's best. The attendance was about 5000.
 The hOppled pacer from Providence. Prince Alert. again proved himself the best in his class in the free-for-all He had the same pair opposed to him as at the Rhode Island capital, Anaconda and Connor. His victory. was even more decisive yesterday than that of last week. With the advantage of the pole position in the first heat, Anacon- da led to the stretch Here Curry brought Prince Alert alongside and in a few strides he had the Kangaroo" horse thoroughly beaten. He finished in hand a length to the good. The re- maining heats were Prince Alerts all the way, he winning with something to spare each time.
 The PIP tr0t went to the New York horse, Chain Shot. He was made a strong choice over the field on the strength of his good race against Dolly Dillon at Providence, when he was separately timed in 2:0SH- He won off the reel. though Senator l.. had him to a drive in the stretch the last mile. Chain Shot is by Red Heart PiQue. by Kentucky Wilkes He is owned by the we'll known Speedway driver. Charles Lloyd.

 Chicago, Sept 5.lThe feature of the card at. Harlem yesterday was the hur dle race at mile and five furlongs over six hurdles, which was won by Eva Moe. CorriIlo and Cassie fell at the third fence. Refugee lost ground at each hurdle, but made much of 1t up between jumps. Eva Moe proved to be good fencer and was game at the end.
 Jockey Willie Hennessey, on Foray, met with a serious accident just before the first race. While warming up the gelding bolted in front of the grand stand and, runningsinto an iron fence, threw his rider, impaling him on the barrier. The boy was lifted uncon- scious from the fence and was taken. to a hospital. where his injuries were pronounced serious, if not fatal. Weather clear; track fast.
 On the Deutschland, which sails to- day, will go two more American jock eys to compete with EurOpe's best. They are Marty Bergen, the old-time favorite. and Carroll Mitchell. Their destination is Russia, where Cash Sloane and Piggott have been literally riding themselves into fame and for tune. Mitchell goes under contract, and Bergen has had inducements from one of the largest stables which caused him to undertake the long jour ney. Bergen can ride as light as he did in the days when he put up a worlds record on Salvador, when he swept the boards with His Highness and won the Suburban with Loantaka. There is scarcely big stake in our turf history for the past dozen of years which he has not won, and lie feels as fit as he ever did. Industrious and sober and with a reputation for honesty which never has been ques- tioned by anyone, everybody will wish Marty the best of good fortune in his venture in Russia. Mitchell is good rider-light and strong, alert at the pest, good judge of pace and force ful finisher. The retirement of MT Murphy, with whom he was engaged, left him free to accept the fiattering offer whichYcaniest to him from. Russia. Both these jockeys are bound to give good accounts of themselves.

GEORGE DIXON TALKS.

Cripple Creek, Sept 5.-George Dixon, former champion featherweight of the world, is here training for his match with Abe Attel which will take place September 12. in the Olympic Athletic club. The contest will be for twenty rounds and for purse of $1,0o0, which is guaranteed by the club. ss,
 When queried ins regard to the at- tachment levied on his share of the proceeds from high fight with "Young Corbett," he said:
 'I hold the same opinion now re- garding ORourke's attachment that did the day after the contest. could not believe that O'Rourke would do such a thing to me in view of the fact that I made so much money for him. I did not think him capable of doing it."
 When asked how much money he had made in the past fifteen years he has fought in the squared circle, he re- hected for few moments and replied:
 During the fifteen years of my ring career have made something like $150,000. Out of this sum I received something like $7,000. the balance go- ing to my former. manager, Mir O'Rourke.
 "Of course my training expenses amounted to considerable and, allow ing for that. to the best of my knowl- edge O'Rourke received between $7O,- GOO and $75, 1000 of my earnings in the fifteen years that I was under his management
 ''As to what I have done with my share of the money made by me I do not consider anybody's business. MT O'Rourke is entirely mistaken when he says I spent 1t on horses women and wine. I admit was foolish and should have held on to my money but was a good fellow and did not dis cover my foolishness until too late. It is true I led fast life for long time, but very little of my money went for women and horses. I have a consid- erable wardrobe now-clothes enough to last me for some time to come.
 T have quit my dissipation and ex- pect to again be at the top rung of the ladder in the IA to 11S pound class of fighters. I am feeling as well now as ever did in my life, and feel con fident that with good care I have a few thousand dollars in my bones yet.
 T have not decided what shall do in the future. My next fight is with Abe Attel, and expect to dispose of him within the twenty round journey. expect to stay in the west for some time. as feel much better in this sec tion of the country than in the east. The fighting game is better here than east, and expect to make some money here.''
 Dixon retires regularly at 9:3O every night and arises at 5:30 in. the morn ing, after which he takes a long run. accompanied by his trainer, Jack John son. This done, he puts great deal of his time in at a nearby blacksmith show swinging q ten pound hammer, helping the blacksmith for exercise. ELY BY THE NIGHT FIGHTS. The boxers are now in the same pre- dicament they were in the days of the London rules. They are compelled to fight in private. and incidentally dodge sheriffs
