refused tdeplay bslf and the game was
given to Boise, 8'to 0.
Such deplorable conduct a. that il
what w. H. Lucas, president Of the
r. N. H., has been trying to ward off
ever since the opening Of the season.
The rooters perhaps are scarcely to
be blamed when playing with such a
bunch of old-time scrappers as are on
that Boise team. "Paw" Gimlin Of
the Mormons doesn't seem to be a
very aggressive cuss, but when it comes
down to cases he's there just as bad
bad McCloskey when it comes to
urging his men to adopt hull-dozing
tactics.
While the crowd was swarming onto
the field to attack the umpire, one
who is acquainted with Honest John
McCloskey can imagine him just hop
ping about in ghouish glee and saying
things which never appear in print.
Mac, You know, is a queer egg-scrap-
Ply as the old Harry. He takes delight
in picking fight and then letting
someone else do the fighting. He
always gathers around him a bunch of
players who will fight at the drop of
hat
But, whether John was responsible
for the disgraceful affair is not known.
Suffice to say John was there and
that's nuf.

non Is READY TO FIGHT.

Age has no terrors fer Bob Fitzsim-
mons, Father Time may go way back
to Pasco for all Fitz fears him. In
stead of bowling down to the inevitable
decree of Old Dad Time the freckled
hided old fighter is now sparring
around and wants another match. He
don't care to quit the game and take
long rest for the balance of his days.
II purse amounting to thousands
was offered by some Frisco club for
fight between himself and some
noted scrapper Fitz might consider
travelling to California to meet an OPP
ponent in bout of some length, but
Fitz believes he can give the public
and also his opponent all the fight they
want in six-round bout .at Philadel-
phia or Chicago.
Since Fitz has declared himself ready
to meet all corners, fight promoters
who recognize what good drawing
card the mighty Australian is are try
ing to arrange bout between him
and Rubin, tine Akron giant, or Mar
win Hart. who does an idealistic feat
for the fight fans at Louisville.
No matter who his next opponent is
Fitz. who generally takes time by the
forelock and ears. wants to be in shape
to go bruising battle if needs be.
Every day sees the freekled Robert
chasing himself ever the roads from
Bath Beach to coney Island. and when
Fitx wants to give the public a treat
he sprints over the Coney Island boul-
evard. Fitz is a treat believer in road
work, and a run Of eight or ten miles
before or after breakfast is accomplish
ed by the lanky one without much Of
an effort.

that every town and village Of any pre-
