JACK MUNROE'S CHANCES
In Ills Coming Championship Bout with
Jim Jeffrles IIoeans Idea.

Jack Munroe doesn't stand much Of
chance with Jeff according to Ma.
lachy Hogan. Read what Malachy
says;
"The Montana man really believes
that regardless Of the outcome OF the
battle, he will stick to the boiler.
maker for good many rounds. He
does not share the belief Of others
that Jeffries cannot be knocked out.
lie himself thinks he can put the cham.
plon to sleep II he lands on the right
spot. Besides he thinks he has i'm.
proved great deal since he first
faced Jeffries In the ring IN the exhI-
billion bout at Butte. At the same time
he IL no braggart and does not boast
Of his prowess and, In fact, will not
conflde IN any but his most Intimate
friends, II would be idle TO speculate
on the bout between the heavyweights
at this distance, but fighting Is almost
as uncertain as horao-raclng. Many
who saw Munroe when he was through
here and who also saw Jeffries In his
earlier battles give the miner just as
good a chance against JeffrIes as they
accorded the boler-maker when he first
broke into the game. Few who saw
the numbering efforts OF Jeffrios In
his first battles gave him a thought as
champion Those who have seen

vanced than was the case with Jeffries
IN the came length OF time,
No ore seriously believes that Munroe
has a chance except Munroe himself
The average fight fan really feels sorry
for the miner bur not so Jack" He
admits that he could have done abso-
utely nothing 10 Jeffrlos had he met
him again after that exhibition bout.
He also admits that Il was the better

SELEE AND TEBEAU.
Talk About the Good. Bad and Indiffer.
ent Ball PLAYERS.

Frank Selee and George Tebeau met
recently in Denver and began generi l.
icing
"All ball players have their good and
bad faults, but at that they are a helm
70 the team In some manner" remarked
Selee.
Yes" replied George, take a player
that strikes out continually and he
helps. Let's suppose there Is big
crowd present and the weather
threatening. Get one Of these fellows
who can't hit the side of a house and
he strikes out before the rain sets I'm,
He Is help to the team IN that way.
But for mine I'd rather take chances
on the rain and have men that can hit
the ball"
"Welmer is the hardest loser / ever
saw" said Seee, when Everett failed
to call a strike on Mailman and Jake
registered his kick.
That's all right" replied Tebeau
give me the hard losers; they are the
real players. Their heart is In the game
and they win. Don't you know that the
success OF Weimer is his big heart, He
may be hard loser, but he is game,
Half the pitchers In the country
can only sec man With a big club in
his hands when the batter steps up.
1t scares them to death, especially 20
in tight place. Welmer never sees
anybody. He puts the ball over the
plate and forgets there Is q man there
to hit It. No wonder he Is the greatest
left-handed pitcher In the business to-
day"
Then the conversation drifted to
first Dasemen. II like Chance better
than any first baseman In the country"
said Selee. Many like Tenny, but
had them both and viii take Chance for
mine. He II a quick starter. fast on
his feet and great on a ground ball,
Then to take his base running Into con-
sIderatlon, where is there another that

Special Dispatch to Daily Alaskanl
 San Francisco, Dec, 2l-At the end of the 2Oth round with both Jimmy Britt and Battling Nelson fighting like bull dogs the gong sounded last night, terminating the greatest fight that ever took place in San Francisco. At the sound of the gong, Referee Billy Roach placed his hand upon the shoulder of Britt, and addressing him self to the audience, proclaimed the California boy to be the winner of the contest. The announcement was well received.
 At the close of the last round, Britt was punching Nelson all over the ring, but he lacked the steam that was necessary to put the Chicago man out The fight exempliGed the full extent of punishment the human animal can en- dure. At several stages oi the fight Nelson was terribly punished but he was always game.

RRITT WHIPS NELSON IN
 HARD BATTLE

Britt had the best of the fight nearly all through the contest. Only once was he in danger. His seconds kept him out of close range, fearing the strong blows of Nelson.
 Nelson is unquestionsbly pugelistic wonder. Though undergoing terrific punishment, time and again he came up forcing the work in Brltt's territory,
 The decision was given Britt for making the greatest number of points at clean hitting.
 The house which greeted Britt and Nelson was the largest in the record Of prize fights. The sales amounted to more than $4O,OCO Sporting men were present from all over the country, and it is admitted by everybody that they got their moneys worth. Both men were trained to perfection. There was much money bet, Britt being the favor ite at 10 to 2.
