one reason for this. in all probability.
Is the fact that Ryan prefers meeting
men for whom he does not have to train.
Conducting a saloon Is not particularly
conducive to conditioning. and, though
Ryan has not been connected with the
publican business for more than year.
he probably does not want to enter long
and arduous course OF training before bat

That the men are now matched does not
necessarily mean that they are going to

modern pugilism. They will probably get
together about the same time that Bob
Fitzsimmons gets ready to retire from the
ring-which Is about the time the coming
generati tion will be in its prime.
Local boxing seems at a standstill al
though several minor matches are sched-
uled for decision. They are mostly at the
smaller clubs and are In an embryo state
as yet AS some OF these contests, how.
ever. are between local men who fulfill
all the requirements Of the Police Board
as relating to residence and club MEM
bership. Il seems possible that the city
will have some minor bouts IN the near
future.
The rule about fighters being local men
enables quite an array Of pugilistic fol-
lowers OF this city to have things TO
themselves. and It seems probable that
some work Of a fighting nature will be
recorded in the near future.

HANDBALL MATCHES WANTED.
Doctors Neville and Hill Are willing
to Play All COmeFs.

Beneficient publication Of handbill af..
fairs in The Republic has stirred UP the
players. Very many Of them resent the
manner in which they have been classified
as inferior to others and want to play
matches to prove who is the best man.
This seems to be an opportune time for
a handball tournament at the Missouri
Athletic Club. By taking out the screen

Doctor Neville could, the writer believes,

to take which a man must be experienced.
Doctor Hill, his partner. also has difh-

THE SECOND GAME.

The second game was the more hotly
contested of the two. Finnegan's Sports
mans showed well with the league lead
ers; and at present are the favorites of the
socker fans.
The teams started playing at a rapid

fifteen minutes Of playing Ficel. on a
brilliant left-wing shot from the twenty

bars. Gleason. minding the goal, tried.
but failed to bat the pighide out.
Five minutes after this the ball was
