On Tuesday night August IS, Adam Stewart, district board member of the miners union, organized a large num- Der of the miners at Drifton, Walker county into local of the United Mine Workers of America. These men are employed at the Corona and High Level mines, which belong to the Sloss-Shef- field Steel and Iron company.
 On Wednesday evening Mir Stewart accompanied by Eugene Sullivan, also 2 member of the executive board held an- other meeting and added more members to the organization from among the miners.
 The superintendent of the miners was away at the time the local was organ ized and some misunderstanding arose which resulted in the dismissal of some of the men.
 A protest was made yesterday to the president of the company. MT. Maben, who had been out of the city for several days. together with J. W. Mcqueen, second vice president. and T. c. Culver house. the general superintendent.
 MT. Maben knew nothing of the trouble until his return yesterday afternoon. He was unable to make any reply to the pro- test, but the matter will be taken up be- tween the officers of the company and the mine workers today, and an under standing based on the merits of the case will, 1t is said, unquestionably be reached.
 MT. Halier Out.
 Joseph Haller, district organizer of the United Mine Workers of America, district No. 20, who was shot in the arm at Horse Creek last week, Is convalescent and was at the miners headquarters yesterday.
 It will be remembered that MT, .Hanier and r M.

A QUIET GAME.

The following from the Boston Post
of Saturday is interesting to those
who think boxing so awful:
If a band of civilized Comanche In
dams had been on Soldiers Field yester-
day afternoon at the time of the final
inter-class lacrosse championship
game between the junior and sopho-
more teams, it is likely their old saw
age instincts would have been aroused.
For about an hour gruesome and
bloody battle was fought, which in
many ways resembled an Indian
slaughter more than the quiet old gar
rison game that our Canadian aborig-
ines used to play. Belaboring each
other with sticks, bruising each 9TH
er's shins, and smashing each other
over the head the two teams fought it
out desperately until, after the smoke
of battle had cleared away, the ju-
niors were found to have won the
game by the close score of to 9.
Ralph Bourne, a member of the junior
team, had his hearing appendage torn
nearly from his head, while many an
other player received bruises which
will cause him pain and discomfort
for many days.

MILLER MATCHED
WITH JOE HANDLER
Match Settled Yesterday for Eagles Benefit
April e.

Handlers match with Tim Kearns at
New Britain recently will go down in
Connecticut boxing history as one of
the most strongly contested bouts ever
seen in thatAetate, the game in which
Kearns went out before Handlers trip
hammer right after defeating all the
best men of his class. Herman Miller
is one Of the most recent men to go out
before Handler. He handed it over to
Miller in the 18th round of terrific
going on Nov. %, last, in Baltimore.
That Miller will try to hand back
a little larger package in their next
and second meeting goes without say
ing. Miller'S capabilities are now we'll
known here and from the fast gait
he can go a fair line can be drawn
on the steam Handler must have pos
sessed to have laid it over the Dutch
man" in thirteen rounds.
Some of Handlers bouts are as
follows: Tom Broderick, K. s: Jack
Downey, w. 20; Danny Duane K. 10;
Tommy Cleary, K. 5; Spike Sullivan,
K. II; Kid Mcfarland, D. 6; Charley
Seeger, D. 20; Herman Miller, K. Is.
Some of Miller's are: Eddie Lenny, D.
8; Jack Ward, w. 6; Tom Wallace w.
8; Charley Motion, K. 8; Bobby Thomp-
son, w. s; Joe Barrett, w. 4; w. Z;
W. s; Bobby Dobbs, K. II; D. 20; D.
20; Jack Ryan, D. 10; Tim Kearns,
w. 10; D. 20: L. +. 3; Cyclone Kelly,
D. 10; Spike Sullivan, won forfeit
money, $50; George McFadden, won
forfeit money, $50; Jack Ryan, D. 20.
1t is the intention of the management
to arrange two preliminary bouts for
the benefit. Jack Sheehan will! be
matched against Ed Durane at 1875
pounds for six rounds. Sheehan is
well known to the patrons of the S.
a. c. and won the preliminary Of
the Miller and Ryan bout in three
rounds. Durane is a brother of Jack
Durane who is doing good work Just
now in the North.
The second preliminary will be put
on between Young Jolle of this city
and kid" Duffy of New Orleans, for
eight rounds at lis pounds, provided
Jollie can get down to the weight.
Jollle is too we'll known to need any
introduction. Duffy is a crack BAN
tam of New Orleans and has lust ar
rived in the city looking for a match.
Cuban Joe" will not be able to appear
in the ring for awhile as his parents
think he is too young.
The Savannah morning news., 1903-04-15

It now looks that Joe Handler will
meet Herman Miller at the Eagles
benefit in the Savannah Athletic Club
hall on the night of the 22nd Of this
month. That no better match could
have been made those who are con-
versant with the standing of the men
know, and the records of the men will
show. The Eagles are to be congratu-
lated and the manager of the Savan-
nah Athletic Club who arranged the
match, is to be compIimented
In answer to the kilograms to Billy
Wilson in Philadelphia and Florrie
Barnett in New York, sent night be-
fore last, by the Savannah Athletic
Club, three offers were received yes
terday for men to meet Miller. OF
the three one happened to be Handler
and the moment it was learned that
he could be secured he was selected
and the choice warmly backed by Mil
Ter. Joe Handler is a brother of Jim
my Handler, who appeared in a short
bout before the Savannah Athletic
Club some months ago. He is now
rising into the same prominence and
fame which his brother won some
years ago and held for a long period.
He is built of the same game stuff
which made his brother overtax his
strength in taking on all corners just
to be active.
Miller and Handler have met once be-
fore last fall, which bout Handler
won. 1t was that fact which made
Miller ask that Handler be brought on
for the match and which made him
second the selection so strongly He
thinks it is a chance of his life to get
even and means to see that he will.
Handler of course will have something
to say about that.
Besides Miller, Handler has met and
defeated such men as Danny Duane.
Spike Sullivan, Tim Kearns, Tom Brod-
erick and other of the first water.
Duane at the present time is looked
upon as one of the best lightweights in
the business. He recently knocked Dial
Hankins out in Boston. Spike Sullivan.
who Handler has defeated, has, in the
past four months, defeated all the
lightweights in England. He has al
ways been and is to-day one of the TOP
notch men in the game.

I MANAGER M'GRAW
OF THE GIANTS

Thinks His Team VIII Have cs
Onahces Because of Good Train
ing Here.
Manager McGraw of the New York
team seems to be hopeful for the suc-
cess of the Giants in the coming sea-
son. IN an interview which is credited
10 MIN ne pays Savannah a neat COM
pument. indirectly. The interview is
as follows: 10
For the first time in years tha

IS SAID by man who played with

salary Is $4,000 a year. Seven thous-

SAVANNAH BOWLING TEAM
AGAINST SOUTH.
Atlanta Game VIII BE Played and
Probably Many other Teams.

Atlanta Game VIII he Played and
Probably Many other Teams.
Nothing has been heard by the Sa-
vannah bowling team from the
Crescent team of Atlanta, since their
departure after the last match as
to a return match in Atlanta. 1t is
felt here to be certain that the match
will be arranged, however, and the
Savannah team will continue to prac-
tice for the event. When the Atlanta
team left here they said the Atlanta
match would be arranged as soon as
circumstances would permit
A practice match between the Sa-
Vannah team and a picked team from
the Hussars will be bowled on the
Yacht Club alleys tomorrow night.
1t will no doubt prove a good try
out as the HuSSars are crack bowlers
and 1t should not be hard matter to
PICK team from them to make things
interesting for the "all-cracks" team
The Jacksonville Bowling Club has
also sent forth challenge to the Sa-
Nannah team to play here or there in
the near future and if is thought that
as soon as a convenient date may be
arrange the South Village" folks
VIII be taken on for one or more games
1t is not beyond the pale of possible
happenings that the Savannah team
may also have to defend their reputa-
ZION against teams from one or two
otner states before many more moons
nave nlled and waned. The Atlanta
team had defeated the crack team Of
New Orleans and some other states
peIore the match here and since Sa-
Hannah has took unto herself the Gate
Guys laurels the Louisianians and the
other Southerners may want another
shot at the bowlers who may call
themselves the South's champions.
There is no doubt that the Savannah
Team will stand ready to defend It's
Iaurels against any aggregation who
may think themselves worthy, and the
Forest City knights of the ten pin
sport will not be short of hackers, let
Inc team come from where 1t will.
Especially are other states liable TO
challenge if the Savannahians win from
the Capital City cracks in the next
match.
