Old Fliz Roasts Corbett

with theatrical troupe. but has not
yet decided with what company. Il
intend to force that fellow Corbett
into a match" says Fitzsimmons
Just because he Is circulating stories
to the effect that am an old has
been. Corbett Is afraid to fight me
and is trying to evade a match by de-
Glazing I am too old. If we ever meet
and it's my ambition to get on with
him, he will have cause to regret his
remarks. / never will be too old to
beat him, and no one knows that fact
better than he. My hand Is getting
well; it will take some time, but when
it does get strong l will go after
Corbett and show him how old l am.
The first knuckle of my right hand
may not get as strong as 1t used to
be. but the middle knuckle is all l
want to lay on Corbett. For that mat
ter. / can knock him out with the
left hand. and all I will need to do
with the right Is to use it to block
with. l wouldn't be afraid to fight
him right now with my right hand
broken. 1 knocked him out with a
left before.
Quit fighting? l guess not. There
will be lot Of fighters feeling older
than l do before l get through with
them. First one will be Corbett, an
artificial fighter"
Here Fitz stopped and looked
pleased. The term amused him-he
repeated 1t. Artificial fighter, that's
what he is. Every time he met real
fighter he got whipped. Only reason
he Is doing his monologue on me Is
that he is afraid the people will want
to see him meet me. since We have
both been beaten by Jeffries. He
wants to crawl out of it. and so he
tries to cut under me by saying | am
too old to fight a young fellow like
him. and it would be shame to hit
me-" Here Fitz snorted with indigna-
ton.

through and Owney Patton. manager
of the alleys, will shout from now
until the trip abroad.
The Spokane team clearly outclass-
ed the Walla Wallas and averaged
man for man ahead Of their oppo-
nents.
Little Ryan got his Irish up for
keeps and for him to bowl those five
games was only a workout.
Franz played two games in very
good shape. but fell down badly in the
third. and as his opposition was the
best on the Walla Wallas. Owney
Patton took his place and. after
warming up sufficiently, he left his
man trailing in the stretch, f1gura-

Big Huber had Vaught beaten a

as those blue monkeys one sees on

Dobkins had Trythall beaten out
so badly there was nothing to it for

Dvorak and his four eyes thought

JEFFR|ES' BIG Arm
HAS LOST IN SIZE

CAMBRIDGE, MASS, Dec. TO-
Champion James j. Jeffries was exam
ined by DR.. Sargent, Harvard's famous
physical expert, and two surprising
facts were learned.
The first was that the big mans
strong right arm has decreased in girth
considerably since three years ago,
while the second was that his terrible
left, as the result of constant leading,
has become. so crooked that he cannot
straighten it out. This gives him the
unique advantage of putting the full
force of straight blow into hooked

BRILLIANT ARGUMENT
BY ATTY. CEN'L KNOX

WASHINGTON, d. c.. Dec. l8.-
Another large and distinguished audi
ence gathered in the supreme court
yesterday, even standing room being
occupied by those wishing to hear At
torney General Knox on behalf of the
government in the Northern Securities
case. 1t was Knox's first appearance
in person since he was appointed to the
cabinet. Much interest was manifested
when the understood, smooth-faced
youthful-looking man began his ad-
dress at noon. He proved most bril-

Three years ago Jeffries' right arm
measured 1876 inches, whereas it now
measures l5.9 inches. DR.. Sargent is
puzzled to know how to account for
the loss. On the other hand his left
arm measurement, his chest measure
ment and his height remain the same.
His weight has increased from 228
pounds three years ago to DAT pounds,
while his chest expansion has also in
creased. DR.. Sargent says Jeffries is
a wonder, and has ten years of hard
fighting ahead of him. His only danger
is tendency to obesity.

Father Justa, who was at his devo

breathing and look around, The only
person he could see was woman who
knelt at the rear OF the church and
seemed to be praying.
He went down the aisle to speak &c
her and touched her on the shoulder
Her face fell forward and he lifted hel

Abe Attell and frankie Neil, both
of San Francisco, are to meet for 20
rounds at lis pounds, ringside, before
the San Francisco Athletic club in
January. The men have agreed to
split the money 65 per cent to winner
and 35 per cent to loser.
The rivalry of these two boys on
the coast has been intense for the
past two years, and when they clash
two of the cleverest little follows in
the game will be seen in the ring.

tied.
The local union of the coal miners
of Louisville, the principal camp of the
Northern Colorado coal fields, voted
last night on the revised proposition
of the operators and accepted it by a
vote of 119 to s. The only change in
the revised proposition is that new
is made between thick and
thin coal in the Louisville district. Six
feet is made the dividing line between
thin and thick coal, instead Of five and
a. half feet. Today the Northern Coal
and Coke company was officially mott
fled. The other locals will vote on the
revised proposition tonight. 1t is be-
lieved that the proposition will be gen.
orally accepted.

STICKNEY is READY
FOR KANSAS CITY FIGHT

That the Kansas City grain men are
going to wage war on President A. B.
Stickney and his railroad, because Of his
action in cutting the Omaha grain rates,
now seems certain, and the boycott of
the Great Western system by the South
western grain shippers will probably be
the first blow struck.
But the action of the Kansas City
Board of Trade in declaring war seems
not to trouble the Great Western Off
Gals, for it was said yesterday at the
company's general offices that the dec
laration and petition of the Kansas City
men would not in any way affect the
company's position regarding the cheap
Omaha rates
From a reliable source it was learned
that the action of the Kansas City ship
pers was anticipated when the cheap
proportional rate was granted to Omaha.
President Stickney, it is said figured on
losing a certain amount of the South
western business, but the Omaha bust
ness created by the cheap rates will it
IS thought more than offset the loss from
Kansas City.
The new Omaha grain exchange yes
terday declared it will support President
Stickney in his fight with the Kansas
City shippers and that this support will
take the form of increased business for
the Great Western Shippers will, when
ever possible, send their consignments of
freight over the Stickney line to help
make up for what Kansas City traffic is
lost by the cheap Omaha grain rates
made by the Great Western.
