sifteen miles of the Japanese feet, con-
s.sting of two battle ships. and five

BRITT COMING EAsT

New York, April 6.-Jimmy Britt tfe crack California lightweight who whipped Young Corbett a few weeks ago, is coming east to negotiate with some of the ambitious pugilists who are after his scalp and incidentally to fill theatrical engagements in Chicago, Washington, Boston, Phila- deIphia and this city. Britt expects to leave San Francisco tomorrow in company with spider Kelly, who is no stranger in these parts. Britt's arm which he injured in his encounter with Corbett, is still sore, but he thinks that with careful nursing ii will be all right again by the time he arrives in town.
 When Britt gets here he will in all probab bility be met by Al Herford ou behalf of Joe Cans. Herford has posted $1.0OO in Cincinnati to bind a match with Britt for the negro at 133 pounds, weigh in at o'clock, or 13l pounds at the ringside. The money has been up for several days, but SC far, Britt has not sent any response It is likely that the forfeit and challenge will go unnoticed, for Britt it is said, will not entertain q bou

Jesse Foley was again q caller at the Democrat office to-day, and wanted to know if any word had been received from the friends of Dave Cronin. He was informed that no word had been received. He then renewed his chal- lenge to Cronin, stating that his (E'o- ley's) pupil would wrestle him and beat him. Perhaps out of those chal- lenges may come match before very long.
 Word comes from Manager Dick Howell in Bridgeport that Billy Cnaki has gone out of training for the pres ent. However, he would get into the game again if Kelly ever got in shape to perfect himself for a match.
 Jack Roach and Ed O'Connell have been matched once more, to meet in Naugatuck A match to finish be tween these two mat workers would be good card, but the referee should be empowered to give his decision on the points made by each man and then there would be something doing.

St. Clair, Champion 4ra4 sea:.:.es
 ton was taken and the future of the sport assured in Chicago. Forty acres of admirable ground have been secured in the out skirts of the city for a coursing park. The coursing ground proper will cover about thirty-fve acres of level grass land, well drained, so as to give both hare and hounds secure footing. There IS no coursing ground in the country more admirably adapted for fast trials, as every corner of the large field may be seen plainly from the grand stand. At each end of the field a portion of the ground will be fenced of to be . used for escapes" for the hares when pressed hard by the hounds, so that their chances of being captured will be reduced to a minimum. The hares will be brought from Kansas and Indian territory, and allowed to run at liberty over the entire field, and will soon be as much at home as on their native heath. Speaking of coursing, Joseph M. Brennan, one of the founders of tn.
 Ellerslie Cross Country club, and one of the best known cross country riders in the west, said: While coursing was only introduced in this country about thirty years ago, Ireland and England have been the home of the sport for centuries. The best meetings are held abroad by clubs, whose memberships are most exclusive. Nearly all the big stakes are run over private demesnes. Beauty in a greyhound invariably goes with speed, the necessary quality of successful dog, but sometimes 8 rather plain-looking hound will run rings around the handsomest bench show winner. Take St. Clair, for instance, who was unbeaten in his day. He was not what would be termed handsome hound, but his muscular development was wonderful, and no dog ever took
 his measure in course after the hares. He was very successful in the stud also, his winnings there and on the turf footing up his owner over $40,000. The points most desired in a good greyhound are straight back, sloping shoulders, broad chest, and good hind quarters, we'll nruscled. He must have good, soundA feet and stand well over his toes. The old saying. The race is not always to the swift holds good in coursing, as dog may be very much faster than his competi- tor in the srun-up' to hare. but when the latter turns may not be able to recover himself as quickly as his less speedy competitor, who is probably 8 more strongly muscled, steadier dog and 'E1Tks the hare better in close

TRUBY DESERTS HARTFORD.

Hartford, April 6.-Word was re- ceiyed in this city yesterday from French Lick, Ind, that H. G. Truby, the infielder who was signed by Mana ger Tracy to play with the Hartfords this season, had signed with the South ern league and had left for his home at Ironton, O. Truby has been at the springs at French Lick getting boiled out for the spring campaign and re- ducing his weight. He was said to be in fine condition and claims to have discovered a new system whereby he can make a team play pennant ball. Truby played with the Hartfords two years ago and he alleges that $50 is due him for salary. 1t is understood that Manager Tracy is willing to ad- vance him his carfare here, but he did not want to take any chances in send ing such sum as $75. Manager 1 Tracy heard a few days ago that Truby was liable to disappoint him but 1t was not known at that time that he had signed in another league. As Truby will not come 1t is expected that Daly will play the second bag. Manager Tracy has several infielders and the loss of Truly will not inter- fera with his plans.
