Round four-Gans jumped into Gard
ner from the gong. getting in on the
ribs hard. Gardner swung wildly and
went down with a right jolt on the jaw.

in bad shape when he took his corner.
Gardner Goes Out.

COLLINS IN POOR HEALTH.
Boston Captain ard Manager May
Never Play Another Game.
Especial to The Washington Times.

BOSTON. Mass, Sept. f7.-James Col
lins, manager and third bascman of the
Boston Amerlc League team, has in
all probability played his l.st game of
baseball. He has teen in poor health
for some time, and has decided to quit
the game at least for this year 1t is
quite likely that he will not again don
a uniform, as his health is so psor tnat
he does not think he can do himself or
the club justice. Collins will very prob
ably remain with the team next season
as manager.
Jimmy Collins has long been recog-
DiZed as the premier third basenan IN
the business. All players who hold
down that bag are measured as to their
ability by his standard. The Boston
team will feel the, absence of Collins
services. He played his last game a
few days ago. since which time Gleason
has been playing third base.
