o'BR1EN WANTS AT FrTx.

Jack O'Brien, who went to Frisco
to see Gardner and Fitzsimmons meet
in the ring, has gone to visit his in
valid sister at Albuquerque, N. M.
After a short visit with her he will
go straight back to Philadelphia, II
is not generally known, but O'Brien
is the sole support of five sisters and
one younger brother. One of his sis
ters he is educating in Paris and the
others are attending college in Phila-
delphia. The OBrien children were
left orphans when Jack was beginning
his career as fighter. In those days
it took all that the young man could
earn to buy them the necessaries of
life, but since he reached the top OF
pugilism roses have covered their
pathway.
'If Fitzsimmons will box me sin
rounds at Philadelphia l know of q
club that will hang up a $4,000 purse,
said O'Brien while in Frisco. Il am
sure we could split it to the satisfac-
ton of both. If Bob would not want
to box six rounds l hear that boxing
is going to open again at Fort Erie
and we could go there and spar 20
rounds. 1t doesn't matter to me. In
regard to Tommy Ryan 1 have not
heard a word from him. l would pre-
fer to go 20 rounds with him. Alec
Greggains spoke to me about match
ing us out here and I hope he does,
but still believe that Ryan does not
care for any of my game
O'Brien said that he had several
matches In sight at Philadelphia this
winter. and therefore he expected a
busy seasons as well as a profitable
one.

German Relchstag.

BERLIN, Dec. 3.-The session of the
relchstag which was formally opened
today is expected to be one of the
storminest in the history of that body.
Thanks to their recent success at the
polls, the socialists are stronger than
ever before. Furthermore, the social
democratic party is unquestionably the
best disciplined and most compact po-
litical organization in the empire, and
if its web laid plans do not miscarry
the government will see many of its
pet measures baked during the pres.
ent session. As usual. the government
is obliged to depend for support on
the Centre (the Catholic party), which
has always opposed the socialists and
which, fortunately for the government
of Emperor William, continues to hold
the balance of power in the reichstag

The Socalled WRESTLING

wrestling match is scheduled to
occur at Swedish Brothers hall some
time tonight between strong man
who styles himself Mcmillan" and a
Swede named Olson. The name Nc
MILAN must not be COMPOUNDED with
Mcmillan, the catch
wrestler of worldwide reputation.
This fellow is but poor show along
side of Duncan. Nothing is known Of
Olson and whether he can wrestle or
not can not be decided by the match
tonight. Against man like McMil-
Ian, providing the latter were not
ruptured, he don't seem to have much
of show! In discussing Mcmillan,
Young Yousef." the Turk, says that
in his hands Mcmillan would simply
be as a child, although stout one.
McMillan's great drawback is the rup-
ture, which saps his strength in a
match. AS the Turk puts it, Hold
him in one position five minutes and
he will weaken"
