 It is said that Charlie Fitzgerald is willing to come back to Brockton. He is satisfied with his present berth but likes home better.-Brockton Times.
 Danbury will be taken into the league undoubtedly, and arrangements are being made now to get the rink III readiness. One of the Massachusetts teams will be in that city as soon as everything Is ready.
 There will be three home games here next week. Tuesday we will play New Britain Friday we play Meriden, and Saturday Wallingfofd comes here. Those will be three corking games, for each city has a cracker-jack team.
 Tuesday night will see the opening of the game ill this city. when New Britain comes here to fight for vic tory. The lineup of the home team as at present believed will be Tarrant and Griffin rushars: Menard. center; Conway, half back, and Chatfield, goal.
 Manager Harrington may go to Mas sachusetts today to look up some new f players. He will certainly bring back with him Tarrant and possibly Moon- ey. He will also make a try for Bar ney Doherty, who is now on the Sa- lem team. The Salem team is about to go under and Barney could be used down here with Conway.
 The outlook in the Connecticut league is not particularly rosy. At Waterbury an old-time small rink must be used, and in Hartford the game will be played in q park, in the summer pavilion. How the winds will whistle through such place as that this winter!- Brockton Enter prise. Wrong, my boy; we have the best rink of any polo city,
 Manager Doe will not make the Massachusetts trip with his team as such a course is not necessary.A good thing about the Lewiston club is that the manager isn't obliged to accom- pany his men everywhere they go to see that they conduct themselves as polo players should. A better class of men morally couldn't be gotten to- gether Lewiston Journal What q guardian angel Doe would make, to be sure. That must make those who know him smile.

 San Francisco, Nov 16.-Sporting men who witnessed last nights con- test for the championship of the world between Jim Jeffries and Gus Ruhlin agree that it was one of the most dis appointing fights ever put up by heavy weights of reputation. No one eX- pected such q tame termination, and when Billy Madden, acting for Ruhlin, threw up the sponge in the fifth round a howl of anger shook the lafters of the pavilion. Referee Corbett plainly showed his surprise and at first thought the sponge had been thrown into the ring by some practical joker. In an interyew after the fight Corbett said: Il think Madden made q big mis- take He should have thought of the crowd that had paid a big admission fee to see the fight.

 Billy Madden said that he decided to stop at the end of the fifth to save his man from worse punishment. "I did not want a knockout he said.
 Ruhlin got over his grogginess quickly He was not badly punished and bore no serious marks of the fray. There was little trace of heavy body blows in the fifth round and he is little the worse for wear.
 Ruhlin and his immediate followers spoke in awed tones of Jeffries's DOW CT. They agreed that he was d terrible tighter and sought to console them selves for the defeat by extolling the champions fearful power.

Escape from Swamps.
Ike Levy, charged with robbing the
pawnshop of Edward Haskell is still at
large, but the police are leaving nothing
undone in an effort to locate and arrest
him. A complete description of the man,
and his companions. has been sent
throughout the country by Supt. Reilly,
and the police chief says that it is only
a matter of time when Levy will be in
the clutches of the law.
The Augusta authorities believed yes
terday that they were on the track of
the man, and wired that he had been in
that city several days. This could not
have been the case, and the Augusta
chief was notified of the day of the
clerks departure, which was "a hours
later than the suspect was seen In Au-
gusta. There appears to be no doubt
of the fact that Levy and his compan-
ions managed in some way to elude the
vigilance of the guards, and get through
the Gordon that had been thrown around
the swamps at Meldrim. Supt. Reilly

The large black collie dog Jack, owned

bv the wheels of the heavy three-horse
engine from the Central FIRE station. and
death was instantaneous Without even

mangled remains were all that was left Of

The engine was hurrying to answer an
alarm from box "a, at Liberty and West
Broad streets. Driver Conn Flynn had
given the three blacks the reins. and
was urging them forward at terrific clip.
The gong on the machine sounded the
danger note, and pedestrians and vehicles
gave way to the engine, as II was drawn
wildly down Oglethorpe avenue, leaving
cloud Of dust in its wake.
At Barnard street the trolley cars stop
ped short, and the fire apparatus was per-
mftted to pass. The heavy engine scarcely
struck the tracks and the three horses

that time in fine style. Since then he

latest of which is Warren P Lovett. a
prominent, but smooth citizen of San

In connection with the arrest of Lovett

the man. The attorneys had been given

of affairs and left at once for Savan-

In this city he secured two large trunks,
which he filled with rocks and glass.
These he shipped to himself at Sanders
Vile. When the heavy trunks reached
that place they were az once seized on
the papers held by the legal firm. They
had been marked jeweIry and glass and
were sent c. o. d. This didn't phase
the lawyers and they promptly took
charge of the fat trunks.
1t was given out that the two trunks
containing valuables would be sold at
the Court House. and a large crowd was
attracted by the announcement. Lovett
was there, too. and he did not seem to
relish the idea of having to lose his val

Court House by one of the attorneys in
the presence of the large crowd. 1t is
needless to say that the legal light was
astounded when he found on top of a
