Jack Munro0 Has Decided to
Stick to the Ring.
There Is Nothing Doing at the
Mines He Declares.
WILL FIGHT RUHLIN.
Has Accepted Terms for a Sep
TENDER Bout at Butte.
Thinks He Was Nervous and
Scared Before JEFF.

San Francisco, Sept. THAT popular
expression Back to the mines,' doesn't
so with Jack Munroe any more. He
has passed up the mining game and
will continue fighting as long as he can.
Munroe has reconsidered his determine
ton to quit boxing and today told his
manager, Harry Pollak, to get all the
fights he could for him. His first con-
test will be with Gus Rubin at Butte,
Mont. They will meet this month some
time, the negotiations will be closed in
a day or so and the date named later
on.
Although I said that would never
fight again after JEFF whipped me on
Friday night" remarked Munroe today,
Il have come to the conclusion that 1
have just as good right as the other
big fellows to seek public favor. and
think there are a whole bunch of them
that can whip
Munroe was very nervous when he
fought Jeffries. and that, in a way, &C
counts for his poor showing. The cham
pion hit him an awful wallop on the
jaw in the first round, sending him to
the floor in a dazed condition This, too,
helped take all the fight out of Jack
before he got fairly started, and it is
argued that If he ever gets going he
will more than redeem himself for the
poor showing he made on last Friday
night.
Manager Pollak said that he was
confident that the miner would yet
make his mark in the fighting game.
and to show his confidence in Munroe
he will make a side bet on every match
he takes part in. At that Rubin and
4unroe will not make a bad match.

A TEAMS STRONG SPOTS.
O'Rourke Thinks First BaSe-Hart
Says the Catcher.

Chicago, Sept. 1T consider the
hub of ball teams at first base now
adays," said Bill O'Rourke, owner and
manager of the Omaha team in the
Western league, who was in Chicago
yesterday. at used to be that the
player that was picked out to play
this position was given the place if he
could stand UP and catch the ball and
bat little. Now a first-sacker has to
have the head arm, batting ability
and be able to cover as much ground
as most any man on the infield."
ST do not agree with you that the
first baseman is the hub of the team, "
said President Hart of the Cubs, 'for
think a catcher is just as important
as any man on the team. If team
has a poor catcher it may be the best
in every position, but it will not win.
Both places are very important and
team that tries to get along with poor
players in these places will fall down.
There have been many changes in the
game in ten years and the minor
leagues are now playing better ball
than the majors were at that time.
For instance, the first baSeman these
days has to play deep and cover a lot
of ground. Ten years ago he kept
pretty close to the bag all the time
and made the second basenan cover
all the ground between first and sec
ond. Such a thing as having the sec
ond baseman cover first when the first
baseman fielded the ball was unheard
of in those days

FOUGHT TO A DRAW.
Neil and Tommy Murphy Had a Ter
rife Battle at PHILADELPHIA.

Philadelphia, Sept. FRANKIE Neil
of San Francisco. the bantamweight
champion, and Tommy Murphy of
New York went six rounds to a draw
at the National Athletic club last
night. 1t was terrific fight from be-
ginning to end and both men received
hard punishment Neil. however, had
slightly the better of the bout.
Neil was the aggressor throughout
but Murphy gamely met every rush.
The Californian had a very slight adj
vantage in the first three rounds, but
in the fourth the New Yorker square
ly met the rushes of his opponent and
fought him back. When the bell rang
in this round Murphy had Neil
against the ropes. In the fifth Muir
ply hit Neil almost at will and had
the champion greatly worried when
the bell rang. The last round found
both men fighting at a terrific pace.
Each delivered telling blows but
neither could land decisively.

Capt. Hurley Tells Harvard Football
Candidates to Start Training.

Boston. Mass. Sept. 1.-The can
didates for the Harvard varsity foot
ball eleven have been ordered to start
training today and to report for the
first preliminary limbering up work on
Soldiers field Monday afternoon, Sep
TENDER 10, at $780,
Capt. Hurley realizes that he has a
hard task ahead of him in developing
an eleven to down the Ellis, and is
determined to make the going fast
from the outset. All the candidates
have been ordered to give up smok-
ing and drinking and every excess.
Regular hours are demanded from
now on, as every aspirant for a posi-
ton must be ready to stand gruelling
scrimmage work the first week.
Early in the summer the most
promising candidates for the team re-
cefved footballs, and they have been
instructed to perfect themselves in
punting, dropping on the ball, starting
and catching punts.
1t is the intention of the football
management to get down to business
as quickly as possible and two or
three days only will be given over to
preliminarieS.

TOOK THE LAST.
Sedalia Gets the Final Game of the
Series.

With Jake Bauers out of the game
and absent from the team, Stonel

| because of a mashed toe, Bevis barely
able to navigate on account of q
sprained ankle. McDill playing his
| last game of the year with Sedalia
because of poor work, with Davis and
| Hutter, both pitchers, playing center
and left fields, the disorganized Gold
bugs from Sedalia found it an easy
proposition to wal1op the Saints on
Wednesday afternoon by a score OF
| s to 1.
1t was like robbing a house when
the occupants are away on a vacation.
! The CelestialS made one vigorous bluff
in the sixth inning, but that f1ickered
out like a candies end. There was
one real redeeming feature about the
whole show-it didn't last long. Just
| one hour and fifteen minutes was
consumed in trying the case-the
record of the year as the shortest
game in Topeka.
One Mr.. HOWE, pretty and docile,
was in the square for the local sect.
Stoner and Davis found him easy as
a sleep on six feather beds in one
heap. Each got three hits, and Rohn,
White, Lee and Edwards also gath
cred one apiece out of the shavings.
The Bugs hitched all their wallops
together, and they worked like vet
Grams.
Jack Edwards, the "boy phenom' -
who is not yet out of his teens, hand
ed out the benderines for the guests.
The youngster got away nicely with
everything. He has almost as perfeZ-
control as the pendulum on clock.
The Celestials got but six hits off his
service, and two of these had hard
mixup with the question mark before
the scorer finally registered them as
safe ones.
The lone one for the angelic was
earned in the third round. Hurlburt,
who has been hitting consistently
Ia al ~ n nr7n xxyI9i n I'm
to first. Abbott whaled out one of his
three-sackers for which babies cry
now, and of course Mr.. Hurlburt had
a nice little quiet stroll home, while
were lodging the high weeds in the
right garden looking for the leather.
The curtain had rolled up four
times before the Bugs commenced do
regularity and precision Rohn, Stoner,
Davis and White all knocked out
singles, and the first two made the
circuit. When White nailed his bingle
throw in returning it. He whisked
the ball twenty feet inside of third
base and the east bleachers had to
stop it. Meanwhile Davis busted him
self in getting home.
In the seventh HOWE and Brown
were responsible for two runs. Both
overthrow grounders from the bats
of White and Lee. Edwards then
smashed out d neat one over IlTSC OdSG,
and both of his predecessors at the
willow went around and around. Then
for luck one more was added in the
final act. Davis made the initial sta
ton on a single. A short grounder
to first sent him to second. Lee
buckled his optics onto one of Howie's
crooked ones and Davis whirled the
f1ume.
It was a disagreeable day. occa-
sionally a. few drops of rain would
filter down between the players and
help make the grounds heavier than
during the night. The game was life
less and SO was the crowd. In addi-
ton, the latter might be adjectived,
small. Nobody was crowded for elbow
space.

JENKINS RETURNS.
The American Wrestler Was Defeated
in England.

New York, Sept. Tom Jenkins.
the champion catch-as-catch-ca
wrestler. is in town after an extended
tour of Great Britain. The American
while abroad engaged in several
matches and appeared at all the prin-
cipal music halls, where he met all
corners.
Jenkins went abroad to meet the
Russian Lion" George Hacken-
schmitt. The men wrestled for the
Graeco-Roman title and the foreigner
was the victor. The match with the
Russian, as promoted by a supposed
reliable firm of English promoters,
guaranteed the men a purse of S.
900. After the match they refused
to pay the guarantee. with the result
that Hackenschmitt and Jenkins had
to enter suit to get the money.
Hackenschmitt promised the Amer
lean a return match, and they will no
doubt meet in the fall The condi-
lions to govern this match will be
at the Yankees style of wrestling, and
at which he is confident of victory.
Jenkins will go after a match with
Frank Gotch, the crack western
wrestler. and will give John PieninG
another match for the asking.

Good Racing at Providence.

Providence. R. I. Sept Ten
thousand people saw plenty of good
racing on the third day of the Grand
circuit meet at Narragansett park.
The weather was fine and the track
very fast The big attra ction was the
Roger Williams stake for a purse of
$4,000 for trotters eligible to the PIP
class last March While seven re-
sponded to the call, Sweet Marie, the
unbeaten California mare, Won.
Consuelo s., held at even money
against the field, was very rank in
scoring for the opening heat and de-
layed the start for some time. When
finally the word was given Tiverton
vorite in hot pursuit. These relative
positions were maintained to the wire,
the former winning by a length.
The second heat was a duplicate of
hand in the affair by removing Smith
from behind Sweet Marie and substi-
tuting Alta Mcdonald.
For the third heat Tiverton led to
well beyond the half. when Sweet
Marie moved up and they raced like a
team to the seven-eighths pole At
this point the New York gelding
weakened and Sweet Marie won by a
length.
The time for the heat (2:O6H) is
the race record for the year, made by
trotters- This was the decisive point
in the contest, as. while Tiverton tried
his hardest in the next two heats,
Sweet Marie held him safely.
The aggregate time of the five heats
is the worlds record, lowering that in
the famous stallion race at Readville

The 2:14 pace went over until to-
day. after three horses had two heats
