DATE FOR MILLER-THOMPSON
BOUT PUT OFF A DAY
Both Men Are Heavy and Want Time to Make
Weight.

An agreement was entered into last
night between the Savannah Athletic
Club, Herman Miller and Bobby
Thompson that the contest between
these two men will take place on the
2sth, a day later than was first pro-
posed.
This will be an advantage to the men
as they have agreed to weigh 145
pounds at o'clock the day of the con-
test. To bind this contract each has
posted $50 and the man falling to make
the stipulated weight forfeits to his op-
ponent.
Matty Matthews, the well-known ex-
champion, whose fight here sometime
ago with Owen Zeigler is still fresh in
the minds of the patrons of the sport,
has agreed to box on Nov. 13 the Win
ner of the Miller Thompson contest.
Chas. Mulhall, the hard-hitting miner
of Summit Hill, Pa, who is the white
welterweight of Pennsylvania, will
leave Philadelphia tomorrow, and on
his arrival will be matched to meet
the winner of Thursday nights bout.
The contest next Thursday night is

one of upper class. One has but to
look at Thompsons record to realize
that he is fighter. Miller's work is 50
well known that it needs no comment.
Thompson started Immediately to
work on his arrival here. and yester-
day morning, under the guidance Of
Jack Sheehan, the hard hitting feather
of Savannah, he took his first run to
Thunderbolt. He gave an exhibition
in the afternoon to few and boxed
three men. and those who were fortu
nate enough to get a peep were sur
prised at the showing he made. Not
only is Thomson a fast and clever
boxer, but he is a hard hitter with
either hand. He is full of confidence.
and is anxious to make an impression
in Savannah. Those who see this con-
test will see a fight that is worth see
ing.
Miller is pegging away. doing his
usual amount of work, and seems to
be no way dismayed as to the outcome
of this contest. These; men met two
years ago in Philadelphia, and the pa
pers there spoke of 1t as one of the
fastest contests ever seen in Philadel-
phia, and all agreed that if a decision
was to be given the bout would have to
be called a draw.

PRACTICE AGAIN TONIGHT.

Another practice of the football team
will be held at the First Regiment

Cope will commence practicing the team

is the only weakness in the team at
present, as there are no substitutes.
Good light will be provided tonight

A FRIEND OF ALASKA.

President Roosevelt met some real live Alaskans during lis recent visit to the Pacific coast He stayed in Seattle couple of days and to judge by the news paper accounts, the Alaskans came in for good share of attention. They gave him reception in the Geand Opera house of that city, which was attended by two thousand people, mostly Aaskans, let us as eume. However the Alaskans were there in forcc and tine president with them and one of them for tho time being. He given gold pan by the members of the Arctic Brotherhood who were in Se- atte; he was presented with address, by Alaskans and both worthy of the people who presented them and of the commonwealth which they repre- scented. We pleased to note this. And are pleased to chronicle the fact that President Roosevelt ovinced knowledge of Alaska that is not shared by men who have been actual if not bona Gde residents of tho territory. From the presidents address we gather that he is alive to the importance of Alaska we'll the opportunities which it presents field for human endeavor. He spoke of Alaska per manent home for millions of people, of its mines, its fisheries and its agricultural possibilities. He said that laws should be framed, mot in the interests of those who wish to skin the country and then leave it, but in the interest of those who intend to go there and stay there and bring up their children there and make 1t in very fact well as in name, integral part of this republic"
 
 president; they are not the clap.trap of per functory address, but without doubt voiced the hon. est cen liments of the president of the nation. He said in the same speech that Alaska should have a delegate in congress who would be faithful exponent of the views of the people; that in the future Alaska would develop intoa mighty commonwealth, simply because of its grand natural and the perseverance and broad intelligence of its people, To all of which subscribe. And the president of the United States can materially aid us in becoming such, and believe that he is sincere and that he will do We don't want to be skinned" especially when We alive, and the president can protect us from the fayng process by seeing it that the try is not opened up to the spoliaion of either nd vduals or corporations, He may for himself also the lasting gratitude of Aaskans if hereafter he shall appoint to federal positions who Al askans in fact we'll in name.
