Several weeks ago It really looked as
though there would be but few irst

reason Of the fact that horsemen IN
England, France, Hungary Austria ana
Belgium were falling an over them
selves TO induce homo jockeys TO sign
their contracts. But In looking over the
list the "News' finds that many Of The
best jockeys in the saddle today have
been content to spurn the fattering Of
fers from European horsemen and 10
remain at home to take q chance at
fame and fortune on the track. Below
Is given list OF 10 prominent American
knights Of the saddle who will not be
seen on American courses during the

Local Fight Fans Are Deeply H.
teresied in the Outcome,
MEXICAN BEAT TOBY IRWIN
Aud as Toby Won From CIlaerd'
Aurelio Has n PreuJ Good Ihance
Doings o. Others.

10 goes without saying ,hat the big
gest thing that has occurred IN Salt
Lake sporting circles for many months,
was the event at the salt Lake athletic
club on last Monday night, The com
test while short, was sweet to the fight
fans and they were not slow TO voice
iheir approval Of the manner in which
the bout was conducted and the good
clean work Of the little boxers Herrera
ana Jacobs While the latter was COM
pletcly outclassed at every turn OF the
game, he Gid an he could and displayed
samenoss that places him far beyond
the pale OF gutter Those who at
tended TIE bout, ANA there was large
crowd, were wen pleased with IT, but
OF course would liked TO have seen more
OF the littie MeXicans work. The few
WalOps be landed, convinced all hands
THAI he Is a conner ana naturally Inter-
est now centers on his contest with
Jack clifford
When the announcement was made
about four years ago that Herrera was
to fight Terry McGovern, the statement
was greeted with merry IA, ha! He
was regarded as a joke, and not even a
good Joke But he was young at the
business and Of course the Terrible took
the long end of the money bag. But
since that time Aurelio has been taking
care OF himself against some Of the
best llghtweights in the ring, and he
has now perfected a defense and a
punch that makes him dangerous
Inan for any OF the top notchers in his
class. That peculiar crouch which
mysti6ed those who saw IT, was only
adopted during his recent engagements
i'm Butte. but the man who succeeds In
sending him upon junket 10 dream
land win first have to break down that
defense Tuesday evening he left for
Butte, and Is already In training for
his coming argument with Jack Cliff
ford That he has confidence Of WIN
ming, Is evident from the fact that he
has match on with Jimmy Britt AT
Butte on March 2Oth, and coast ring
followers attach more Importance TO
that contest than any they have had
since the Britt -Erne affair, excepting
Of course last Thursday nights cham
pionship battle between Corbett and
Hanlon. Herreras friends figure his
chances thusly.
He Is foxy lie has an impregnable
defense, He is strong, has a punch not
unlike the Kick Of a good healthy army
mule and can take lots Of grueling.
Toby Irwin got the decision over Cliff
ford, and Herera's victory over Irwin
was most decisive. Now TO look at the
other side. Clifford has improved 100
per cent since his famous victory over
Jack Wade His friends claim that he
should have had "a draw with Irwin at
the least. Jack appears slow on his
feet, but can hit like streak Of light
ming He seldom hits without landing
his blows When he lands something
drops. lie Is . walter and Is also a
mixer lie is stronger than the Mexi-
can, can hit as hard and can probably
take more punishment, and is heavier
So figure the dope for yourself.
