Masquerade and Shooting Bee.

It isn't often that one man can mix
up q masquerade and shooting bee
and yet get outside of the rigors Of
the law, and yet Jim Virgins proposes
to do this.
On the day before Thanksgiving
there is to be a grand turkey shoot
and everyone with a flintlock or a fir-
ing iron of any kind can take a hand
at the game. Mr.. Virgins has been
compelled to send to California fer the
birds, as the crop on ;. this side is
pretty short. and in consequence the
birds are large and fine ones. Thanks

FIGHTER JACK MUNRoE.
Butte Miner as Good as Jeffries When
the Latter Was a Raw Recruit.

AS fighter Jack Munroe is making
strides 1t seems not at all impossible that
before many months have passed he may
realize his ambition and enter the ring
again with Champion Jim Jeffries as his
opponent.
The miners fight on Tuesday night in
Boston, in which he cleanly and conclu-
siveIy beat AL Limerick. the giant from
Buffalo. while it did not stamp him as a
CHAMPION or a master of all the fine art of
boxing, showed without doubt that he Is
hard. straight hitter, forceful lighter
Munroe appeared to enjoy that fight as
much as any of the spectators. He laughed
all through il. and even when Llmerlck
landed some hard blows did not lose any
part of the confidence with which he
started.
Munroe seems to have improved since he
fought Peter Maher. a little over month
ago His punches had better direction and
ne did not waste any strength In tanning
the air wildly with his fists. When LINER
ick rushed Munroe met him with clean-cut
hooks or straight jabs that drove him stag
gering back, and when the giant stood
away the miner either jabbed him or forced
his way to close quarters. smashing away
at the body with short arm blows that
would damage any one on whom he landed
Munroe was deliberate all through the
fight Even when he had Limerick nearly
out he did not lose his head. so many
fighters do under the same circumstances.
rushing wildly and missing blow after blow
He calculated every punch that he started
He stood erect and made the most of his
reach. With the straight left he did lot
of damage, jarring the big mans head
back between his shoulder blades.
Many have seen Jeffries fight when he
was a beginner at the game AT that time
he did not box any better than Munroe does
now and did not show much aggressive
ness. Jeffries, at least until he became
champion, was a very careful fighter He
never rushed and mixed 1t up with
seemed content to let the other man
wear himself out hitting. and then to
go in slowly and finish him. That was
the reason that in those days it was COM
monty said that Jeffries fought like an old
washerwoman." The fights in which he
took part were not pretty to see.
Munroe has some of the Terry McGovern
spirit. He is willing at any moment to
rush In and mix it. He loves to sink his
fist into his rivals ribs, and gloats over the
effect of a clean punch on the jaw with the
same pride thst connoisseur of paintings
exhibits as he points out the bold lights
and shadows of a Rembrandt or the i'm
pressonistic handling of a Milet. Munroe
likes to be hit. to throw off the blow and
laugh at the ineffectiveness of II. Fighting
to him Is as interesting as playing a game
OF foot ball, and that is better than a pie
mic
Today Munroe has lot to learn about
boxing. but he has intelligence, ahd he Is
improving rapidly. Jeffries knows so much
more about the game that II the two were
to fight tomorrow he would win, without a
doubt. But he would know that he had
been In fight. Those short, snappy

the finish reused him strongly to secure

Lingo, with flying start, made the most
of his advantage and led the pack to the
finish He was firing rapidly at the end,
but managed to hold out long enough to
win out by a length from Zyra, who was
second throughout the journey. Floyd X,

overhauled them rapidly. but the distance
proved too short and third position was
the best he could fill at the end. He was
clearly the best horse in the race.
The bad start was due in large part to the
crazy antics of Dutch Carter. who turned
and twisted around and made many Oh the
other horses nearly frantic.

During the next few days the stewards of

Nine horses made up the field for the race
which Is under investigation. Bengal ap-
