 ao extensive an entertainment that a couple oi men acted as bookmakers, and odds were offered and taken right and Jeff. The character of the race was such that bets could be accepted to within a few minutes of it's close.
 ssTha animals were furnished by the house. A white line was drawn across the floor at each end of the bar-room, making the course straight away, and about 20 feet long. The animals were dumped OH the floor at one end. As soon as the roach saw the spiGer he'd start to run. The spider would jump over him, and the roach would run in the other direc- tion, it was for all the world like a bull fight, with the spider the bull and the roach the torreador. As you can sec, sometimes the. race would be in one direction and sometimes in another. Sometimes the bets would be against the time it would take the spider to get the roach, and sometimes against the shortest time in which the roach could keep free. Sometimes the bets would be that the roach could get across the room first, or vice versa. It was great thing to watch, and lots of fun for the cowboys. The spider usually won, which always mads the odds in his favor"

TEAMS CLASH TONIGHT.
Big Advance Sale of Seats for Indoor
 Football Tourney.

The big football tournament which will be given in Madison Square gar den tonight will bring out some of the strongest teams that ever played on the gridiron. X line on the interest taken in this event may be drawn from the fact that the advance sale of seats already has amounted to $5.000. The heavyweight champion ship lies between three big teams New York. Syracuse and Orange A. C.. The New York team has the heaviest line of any team this season, averag ging 206 pounds. Every man is a former star player on one of the big Ameri- can college elevens. Four of the play CTS were varsity captains. @
 The Syracuse team, which will meet New York in the main event tonight, is almost as heavy as the New York team. Syracuse managed to pick up all, the crack college players who were not otherwise engaged. Bill Warner, the Cornell football wonder. will play left guard on the All-Syracuse eleven. He was captain of Cornell for , two years. His brother, Glen Warmer, fa- ,niliarly known as ''Pop7 Warner, also will play. Warner has spent q week with the All-Syracuse team, and 
 ru11aor says that the Salt City aggre- gation will have some surprises to spring. Warner brought with him to Syracuse Hawley and Bemis Pierce, two of the famous Carlisle Indian play CTS, whom he developed. @5 The preliminarr game tonight will be between the Monitor 4. c. team of New York and the Colonfals of New Jersey. In this game the halves will be 15 minutes long. In the main event twenty-minute halves will be played Tomorrow night the main event will be the game between the Knickerbocker Field club and the WarIow \. G.. The other games will be between the Brighton A. c. and the Transit A. C. On Wednesday night the winners of these two preliminary
 games will meet to decide the light weight championship The winner of
 the New York Syracuse game will be matched against the Orange A. c. in the final clash of the tournament. Fred Wenck. the all-around athlete of Yale and the New York A. C., will act as umpire The referee will be W

Seating Capacity of American League .5.<f Grounds in New York.

NNAOulluS III NEW I OEk.
 New York, Dec 29.-James K. Kill foyle, president of the Cleveland
 American 4 league club, was i'll tou 5, yesterday. He arrived on Sat,1rd, ,:
 10 fix up few details relative to the
 new ball club to be located here and
 when seen by a reporter said:
 we have made arrangements for
 our new grand stand here l It will be a horseshoe i'll shape and double decker. The girders will be of steel.
 but the stand will not be a cantileyer.
 The seating capacity of it will be = ooo, which will make it a much larger
 structure at the, Polo grounds. which seats about $500. The new bleachers will sent about. II ,0OO. the one back of first base holding G.O0O and the other
 behind third about 5000. This will give us a total seating capacity of inearly 1000 as against 14OOO at the Polo grounds. ,@
 The new grounds will be large enough to accommodate 10000 speeta- tors. There were never more than 20,G00 people in the Polo grounds at any game, taking the actual turnstile
 count into consideration Tn our grand stand we will have a large num- Der of private boxes in the upper tier and plenty of reserved seats which will be sold on the coupon plan at a Islight advance over the usual rates. The regular admission to the grand lstand will be 75 cents and to the bleachers 90 cents. We. have not de cided about the 9 cent admissions. There are accommodations at the Polo grounds for only 1.2OO persons at a lquarter, which leads us to believe that
 New Workers are willing to pay half dollar to see high class ball.
 Tom Loftus will not be connected with the New York Americans. He will remain with the Washington club, where he is finacia1ly interested with Fred Portal Under Loftus's man agement last year the Washington club made some money. He had an idea that he would like to be the busi- ness manager of the New York Amer i jeans, but Portal would not let him 1 go. But Clark Griffith will come here as manager of the team. This has l all been fixed up. and Griffith will call the new team together early in March l for trip south All of the men signed will be on hand without an ex- lception we believe.'
 l A report comes from Pittsburg that 1 the American, Hague promoters have made q deal for the purchase of the
 Washington club for $5O,O0O, as. it was impossible for them to secure the De- troit franchise. When NIr Kilfoy,e

friend of mine returning to camp after day's shooting, says a writer in Navy and Army, suddenly came in sight of big she bear with two cubs following in single file, proceeding along ridge, the forms of the three being sharply silhouetted against the sky. It was very long shot, but lie determined to try it, so drew a bead on the old she bear and fired. The result was curious. The procession stopped, the she bear scratched her self hastily then turned around, and. regarding the cub immediately be- hind with grave disapproval, boxed it's ears soundly, and then went trur- ding cn along the ridge, evidently under the impression that her frolic- some offspring had been up to some unusually objectionable tricks.

 London. Dee 29.-Ratsey's will start to-day on the sails for Shamrock III. Independently of covering the largest area of any sails ever built in this country, they will possess several new features. These have not been di- yulged, but the secrecy and reticence IEnaintained by the heads of the firm have led to the belief that there must be some unusual departure.
 The blocks will be made by Rowe of Cowes, who has been prominent in this branch for fifty years, although he did net turn those which were used lon Shamrock IT. This was the only exception in all of the challengers for the America's cup where he did not do the work. He turned the blocks for the old America when she was in Cowes waters in 1851.

 The coming bout between Abe Attell and Eddie Hanlon, which is to be de- cided at San Francisco next month, will undoubtedly be a big betting af- fair. Hanlon is much thought of by the Pacific coast sports. Ike Bloom, AttelPs manager, has already wagered $1 GOO at even money that his man will be victorious.

 Eddie Bald says he will surely go to France in the spring. According to the stories told by the American riders who returned from there this winter. the French francs are .easy money."Z The Americans go over on a guarantee and get the money before they ride in 8 race. Training over there is not as arduous as it is here. for the Frenchmen do not diet as strictly nor abstain from wine. It was training camp gossip here during the six day race that at least one of the victories won by an American on the other side was due to the fact that he recuperated from the conviviality of the night before better than his ri- val, the indulgence having been in Kentucky products. to which the psan from the states was accustomed.
