SOME OF THE NEEDS
OF WINNEMUCBA
Communicated }

The principal streets of Winnie
mucca are fairly we'll graveled and,
no doubt, the work will be extended
by the commissioners when the wealth
er becomes suitable The sand under
this gravel top coat" soon takes care
of the water which percolates through
the gravel and in a very short time
after a shower or a melt we have a
dry roadway.
But our sidewalks are a disgrace.
With few exceptions, they are of
boards, never very good boards, and
now worse that they are old and out
of repair. There are dangerous holes,
sudden step-offs and high unprotected
elevations above the roadbed. They
are in some places a menace to life
and limb and but for our excellent
street lights there would have been
many serious accidents.
We are taking too many chances.

On a Rampage e

The river rose steadily all day yes
terday and is now rolling rapidly.
The Waltonians complain that the
water is too high for good fishing
but believe that there is splendid
sport for the near future, for the flood
will cause the lake trout to ascend
the stream. All the dams on the river
are now passable for the trout.

AMERICANS ARE KICKERs.

After Suffering Defeat Many Com
 plain of Climatic Conditions. 4
 Whenever an American athlete or sportsman is defeated abroad ill any kind of competition, we all settle down to await the customary Vail of ''cli- matic conditions" unfair treatment" and more recently, .'wretched quality of gasoline" or some other excuse for actual inferiority.
 The latest case is James B. Juyenal the Philadelphia scu1ler. who was de feated at Henley by no Jess a person. age than F. s. Kelly, who beat Titus for the Diamond Souls. last year.
 Rather than credit Kelly with being possibly better man, Juvenal again planes the much-abused English cli- mate for his defeat. ,@
 Refreshing, indeed, is the attitude of Louis P. Mooers toward the chauffeurs who defeated him in the recent big automobile road race in Ireland. f
 MT Mooers simply says that men like de Knyf, Jenatzy and Jarrott can teach the best American chauffeurs more than they ever drearnt of about handling, racing autos on a road while going mile a minute.

Hartford, July 3O.-Norwich won the
 second double header from Hartford yesterday and took an upward jump in the race for the rag. Hartford is now a very popular place for opposing teams to play in, as they strike the easiest thing there is to be found on the circuit. Hartford had a patched up team yesterday, the same as in nearly every other. game. A few new faces were seen. The people who are getting out the new city directory keep one man busy looking after the Hart ford ball players. Morrison's chin was cut in the game at Norwich and it was necessary to have several stitches talk en in it. He went out in the field yes terday with his chin bound up. but was forced to leave.

| A six-round go between George Num-
 roe and Tommy Love was arranged l yesterday. They are to box before the | Southern A. C., Philadelphia, on July 1 2S.
 l Joe Walcott has been matched to meet Joe Grim of Philadelphia in a six round bout before one of the Philadel- phia clubs next month. This will be i Walcott's first appearance in Philadel- 1 phia since he fought George Cole there. The California sports have made Jimmy Britt a 2 to l favorite in the lat ter's coming bout with Jack O'Keefe at San Francisco. Britt has already
 wagered $750 on his chances. The mill
 will be decided tomorrow night.
 | A fifteen round bout between Abe Attell of California and Johnny Rea- gan of Brooklyn was arranged yester- day. The pair are to have it out before
 the West End A. O., St Louis on July 3. They will meet at 122 pounds. The officials of the Industrial A. O.,
 Philadelphia, have paid all the money 1 they owe Joe Grimm. After Grimm 1 lost on a foul to Peter Maher the other night the club held out $2OO of his
 purse money. Grimm threatened to bring suit against the club if the
 money was not forthcoming.
 Articles of agreement were signed yesterday for six-round bout between Young Corbett and Tim Callahan of Philadelphia. They are to meet before
 the club offering the best purse within two weeks time Clubs must have
 their bids in by August l. The weight is 12s pounds, weigh in at o'clock on 1 the night of the mill The men must 1 break clean.
 If any match is to be arranged be- tween George Gardner and Bob Fitz- simmons the weight question will have l to be agreed upon first. Gardner now says that Fitz will have to scale at 16S pounds before he will sign articles. He also stipulates that the weighing in must be at the ringside, too. This
 would seem to be handicap to Fitz in view of the fact that only the other day he went on the scales in San Fran cisco and tipped the beam at 2CS pounds. Yet the Cornishman has been
 known to do surprising things and may
 agree to tackle Gardner at the weight the latter suggests. When Fltz met Corbett it is said that he did not weigh
 more than 1561a pounds while Corbett
 carried 187 pounds. This fight was
 decided six years ago and since that time Bob has grown heavier. The ex-
 champion says he can get to 158 pounds
 and be strong. About six months ago
 he posted a forfeit and issued chal- lenge to fight Jack O'Brien or Tommy
 Ryan at the middleweight limit for
 g., 900 a side, yet neither of these two pa1 +1,o4 ha
 offer was no bluff and that he made it
 because he says he is the legitimate
 holder of the middleweight champion
 ship to-day. Gardner declares that it
 would be foolhardy to give away
 weight to such a fighter as Fitzsim-
 mons If Fitz will consent to the
 weight conditions he names, Gardner adds that his packer, Andy Craig, will back him for a big side bet, provided
 the officials of the club where the e.!..-
 counter is held do not object.

POLO IN MONTANA.
Willie Parsons Credited With Intent to
 Run the Game There


 William A. Parsons, the base ball and polo magnate, is announcing his intention of leaving next week for the west, where he is to remain a little time, after which he says he proposes to return to Massachusetts and close up all his athletic interests. Then he is to return to the west, making his winter headquarters in Montana, where the game of rink polo is to be intro duced by the trust manager the com ing winter.
 If William wasn't jollying the man who printed this program he is laying out something of an ambitious plan, for he has a western polo league already on his hands and is credited. with de- sire to get into the one already running in Indiana and Wisconsin. With polo teams in two and possibly three leagues the smooth and wise one would have enough to do to keep even his astute brain working overtime. r
