OLYMPIANS STAND
FOR PURITY In
ATHLETIC SPORT
Declare That Any Member Box
ing for Outlaw Club Will
Be Made a Professional
FIGHTERS DO NOT APPEAR
Teddie Wolfe Gains Easy Vic
tory Over George Braun at
Lincoln Club in Four Rounds

The directors of the Olympic Ath-
letic Club met last night and took
decided stand against the new Califor-
MIA Amateur Athletic Association.
which aspires to control the amateur"
fighting game here and in Oakland
The Olympic Club will stand by the
Pacific Athletic Association in it's
struggle for purity in athletics and
will not recognize the new organiza-
tion.
The directors decided unanimously
last night to PROFESSIONALISM any ath-
lete of the club who appears in a box
ing contest held under the auspices Of
the California Amateur Athletic Asso-
citation. This decision is final and it
will have its effect on the boxers OF
the club.
George Braun, who fought in the
main event of the Lincoln Clubs show
last night, will. without doubt, be de-
clared a professional He is the only
man from the Olympic Club who ap-
peared and his amateur standing is as
good as ruined.
The principal boxers carded to con-
test at the Lincoln Club exhibition last
night needed the warning of the Pacific
Athletic Association officials and did
not appear.
Instead of Carroll and Martin. the
Lincoln Club substituted Braun and
Teddy Wolfe for the main event Wolfe
proved an easy winner. In every round
he had a decided lead over Braun and
the latter seemed unable to land a good
punch.
Wolfe opened the fourth and last
round of the bout with a rush He
chased his opponent around the ring
and had MIN going. He crossed Braun
six tim-s and finally landed a vicious
uppe -cur ON the jaw. Braun dropped
to the floor and his seconds then
threw up the sponge.
George Larkin lost to Joe Podesta in
four rounds. POdesta did most of the
leading but Larkin fought bitterly
throughout and many were Of the Opin-
ion that he should have been declared
the victor. Al Elkins suffered the first
defeat of his career. losing a tame four
round contest to Jack O'Brien.
Jack Doyle knocked out Charley
Webber in three rounds. Jessie Corn
we'll GOt the decision over Denny
Byrnes and Dick Cullen Outpointed Abe
Label in a four-round battle. Three
other BOXERS besides Carroll and Martin
failed to put in an appearance and
substitutes had TO be secured.

FEAST OF KALOGERO.
OBSERVED IN NEW YORK CITY
WITH SIMPLE CEREMONIES.
Sicilians in New York, Believing in
the Healing Powers of Their Pa
tron Saint, Seek His
Humble Shrine
New York Special.


AS the Irish honor st. Patrick SO the
inhabitants of Sicily pray to San
Kalogero. In whatever land the Sicilian
wanders, the feast days of the year for
him are those devoted to the memory
of Kalogero, who discovered the heal
ing spring of Sciacca in Sicily, and by
the virtue of its waters banished disease,
and even in prosaic Manhattan, the lit
tie colony of Siciiians wedged in be-
tween the Bowery and Broadway still
celebrate with all the ancient rites and
ceremonies the festal days Of San Kalo-
gero.
Annually, when the time of the three
days feast arrives, dreary Elizabeth
street tenement houses are festooned
with brilliant lines of bunting, and the
red, white and green of Italy, surmount-
ed by the arms of the house of Savoy,
mingle with the red, white and blue Of
America Long arches of many COL
ored lights are flung across the narrow
street, and hundreds Of Sicilians, wear
ing uniforms of every description, ma
tional costumes and also Garibaldl
shirts, throng out to pay their annual
homage, National bands play familiar
Sicilian airs, and for the time this cor
ner of New York is transformed into a
semblance of the fair island of the
Mediterranean.
This year, perhaps as mark Of es-
pecial gratitude, San Kalogero was
honored the other day with a huge
shrine, built against the wall of tene-
ment, it's gilt magnificence covered by a
fringed canopy. On the shrine was
placed portrait of the ancient saint
healing a Crusader, who knelt before
him, accoutl ed in full armor. The altar
was ablaze with tinsel glory and COW
cred with pink and white decorations of
paper and thin muslin, and before it a
hundred candles, the offerings of CRATE
full Sicilians, burned steadily.
The New York Tribune states that be-
fore the original shrine in Sciacca, the
home of the saint, pilgrims for genera

finish-for evening wear.
Some of the newest gowns are cut en-
princesse, and embroidered with velvet
leaves; occasionally they are further
decorated with precious stones. White
and vieuX rose seem to me to be the
favorite evening shades just now. Once
again there is craze for old brocades,
but these are not stiff.
1t has been a magnificent season as
far as the best dresses are concerned.
At the same time the girl on a small
allowance can invest in most effective
muslins, quaint chine silks, and many
inexpensive fabrics which can be made
up in the 1880 styles, and with the al

crepe de chine has many possibilities
for the intelligent amateur to get va

are distinctly good colors for evening
wear.
OF course for dancing and really hard

get a fairly good one it need not be
lined; then it cleans and dyes admir-
ably. You can always make a change
by having two or three different COL

directed by the Sicilians of New York in
Elizabeth Street)
tions have deposited their crutches and
canes, having been healed by the spring,
through the interposition of San Kalo-
gero. There, as at Lourdes or the shrine
of st. Anne de Beaupre, huge heaps Of
discarded crutches are eloquent testi-
mony to the efficacy of the saint. But
in this improvised Elizabeth street
shrine there were no crutches, but in
stead of number of wax models of broken
legs and arms and bruised heads, realis-
tically colored to show evidences Of
disease. There were, also, two wax
models of babies, contributed by CRATE
full parents whose little ones owed their
recovery to San Kalogero, and not a
few one and two-dollar bills, the ex-
pressions of more practical gratitude.
To the. Sicilian San Kalogero is a
most potent saint. When illness visits
his house he first prays to San Kalogero
and then summons a physician. If the
invalid recovers, the praise is to San
Kalogero and only part of the fee for the
Doctor When the feast days of the saint
come around again the grateful votary
pays homage at some shrine erected in
the saints honor, and there deposits
some financial expression of his graft
tude.
The Italian of the mainland has moth
ing to do with the Sicilian saint or his
feast. San Rocco, the wandering
French priest of jolly memories who
banished the plague from Italy and re-
turned to France TO be executed as a
spy, is his patron saint. The feast
comes in August, when most of the
buildings of the Italian district are
decorated. There was great fear and
trembling in Little Italy last year be-
cause the shrine erected to San Rocco's
honor took fire and burned.
