MCOY HAS \ WONDER.

Memphis. Tenn. April 4.-Kid Me Coy. the crack pugilist. has tried out Pitcher Frank Smith of the Chicago American league club. in a tpn-minute bout. and announces that hc believes smith is the man to whip Jeffries.
 Fl believe that Smith could give Jeffrics hard fight now. without any further training. and in q year he can lick Jim" said Mccoy. after he had come from the room in the Clarendon hotel where the men had boxeI for ten minutes. Mccoy was puffin- from the fast work. while smith was merely m"pping a little precipitation If his brow. He was not blowing in the least.
 smith is one of the most magnifi- gently built men I ever saw" said Mccoy. He has blow that whe, it falls it feels like SleslyeIlammer. had to caution him several times not to hit too hard and to remember that IL was only a friendly cut. kept tapping him for about six minutes. Then we had little rest and for three minutes I told him We would rO it hammer and tongS-
 He came at me like a hull and had the hardest time I ever had in my life.

Skimmilk with Grass

In some tests made at the Utah ex- pertinent station. skimmilk was fed in connection with grain and with pas- lures. It was found that the larges: total gain was made when the hogs were fed skimmilk and grain. without grass. There was. however. very little difference The conclusion seems to be that .skimmilk is not of very great value when hogs are getting grass as we'll as grain. and. on the other hand. it shows that grass is not especially beneficial when pigs receive an abundance of milk along with their grain.

ANOTHER WRESTLER ARRIVES.

New York. April 4.-GeorSc Hacken- schmidt. the mighty Russian wrestler. evidently will not want for suitable op- ponents when he arrives in town. There are at least two good men wait ing for tussle with him. and the latest one seeking n match is Ali Ap- t"uin of Turkey. Aptouin has been i'm ported here by Sam Fitzpatrick, who will .act as the Turks manager. Alp touin resembles the late YOusouf enough to be his twin brother. He stands over six feet in height and weighs about 230 pounds in condition. Aptouin declares that Hackenscllmidt refused to meet him in Europe. As the Turk is the only available man at ,;raeco-Roman style hereabouts. it is likely that Aptouin will secure the first contest with the Russian. 1t is un- ierstood that Iackenschmidt will not notice any challenges from Fleming be cause of the latter's suspicious bout with Egrherg and the fact that Hack enschmidt threw Fleming in Europe in less than two minutes about four years ago.

PSEUDO HOLY CROSS TEAM,

Worcester. April 4.-Crimmal pro- ceedings have been instituted by the Holy Cross faculty against the mem- bers of a pseudo Holy Cross basket ball team which has been masquerad- ing through New England under the name of Holy Cross Reserves. By the use of the name of the local institu- tion, those in charge of the team hav3 been able to secure games with num- ber of the strong amateur and pro fessional teams and have obtained large guarantees, which they pocketed.
 The last appearance of the so-called Woods Bros team of Portsmouth, x. H.. the latter part of last week. As T result of this contest, the members of the so-called Holy Cross team were suspended by the New England Anna teus Athletic association and the Holy Cross authorities were informed of the fact. This Was the first that the au- thOrities here know of the matter and an Investigation was immediately be- gun.
 The matter was turned over to the police and Inspector Patrick. O'Day will handle the case for Holy Cross. The only charge which can be pre- ferred against@ the as usnrpers, of tho name of Holy Cross is that of obtain ing money under false pretenses, and this charge has been preferred. There is q student of Holy Cross supposed to be connected with the affair, and if it can be proved that he was instrument tai in forming the team and obtaining the games, the authorities here say it will go hard with him.

HACK" IN NEW YORK.

Chicago. April 4.-George Hacken- schmidt, the Russian Lion. left for the east yesterday morning with his man. age. c. R. Cochran. They will stay in New York for a while before returning to London, where the worlds champion wrestler and strong man has engage ments to appear before King Edward.
 On account of the short time allowed him in Chicago the great exponent of the GraecO- Roman style of wrestling was unable to give an exhibition.
 According to n letter received from Mir Cochran yesterday, the great Rus sian, who, by the way, is a German, will be in New York to-day.
 Mir Cochran says that Hacken- schmidt is billed to appear In his fam ous poses plastiques in the private salons of eight of New YOrk's most artistocratic houses. For these show ingS the modern Hercules is to receive Sl.O0O each. says MT Cochran.
 By all true sportsmen it is sincerely hoped that Hackenschmidt, and either Tom Jenkins or Frank Gotch, will come to some terms about wrestling match, in order that New Workers can boast of having seen the undisputetl worlds champion at this game in ac- ton.
 Hack alleges that he is ignorant of the catch-as-catch-can style that is in vogue in this country. and for this sea sons says that he will not meet any of our best men at anything but GraecO- Roman style. In refutatiOn of this Harry Pollok few days ago sent a letter that purported to prove that Hack had wrestlcd two big matches abroad at catch-as-catchca style.
 It is true that when Jenkins went to London to meet Hack the latter made Tom wrestle Graeco-Roman or go without match. Tom Jenkins. fine old sport that he is. agreed, and was thrown, but only after the hardest struggle that Hack ever had. Jenkins now thinks that Hackenschmidt should by all the ethics of sportsmanship, re- turn the courtesy and agree 10 meet him at catch as-catch-can style. His manager, however, might object for fear of losing and thus lessen his drawing powers.
 Hackenschmidt himself would agree to meet Jenkins at the American style. He is fine enthusiast in all athletics in which he is proficient, which in cludes running. swimming and boxing, and dearly loves a contest.

BASKET BALL. GOSSIP FROM WlNSlED
 AND FROM HOLY CROSS

Winsted. April 1.-The Winsted T.. A. B. basketball team claims the ama- teur championship of the state of Con- necticut. The team was organized in 1903 and during the season following made an excellent record. In the sea- son now passed seventeen games have been played of which only two were lost with state teams, one to the Del phis of Hartford and one to the Y. M. c. A. of Middletown.
 In the game lost to the Delphis, Con- nell did not play, and as Wheeler re tired at the end of the first half, the team was weakened, as these are Win sted's star players.
 The teams defeated so far this sea- son are the Independents of Water bury, the Hartford Five. Holyoke High School. Delphis of Hartford three out of four games, Company c of Water- bury, Middletown Y. M. c. A. two out of three games, Easthampton, Mass, Brooklyn Central Y: NJ. c. A., St Georges Field club. Hoboken, and the Seventeenth Separate company, Brook lyn. The total of points won in these games is 356 as against 2S5 points lost.
 None of the men is over 24 years of age and the average weight is 152 pounds. Lynch, the right guard, weighs 175 pounds, and is a terror to visiting forwards. COnnell is cQnsid- cred the fastest player in the state and Captain Wheeler though he ac- quired all'hi experience in his home town. has Outplayed all opponents.
 The management of the team is in a committee composed of T. J. Sulli- van, acting manager; William Slocum, secretary, and George J. Carroll.
 The names and positions of players are as follows: ..
 Eugene Dessereault, Homer HOtch- kiss and Henry F. McKeon, forwards.
 Captain Arthur Wheeler center.
 Jeremiah Cornell, left guard, and Edward l.. Lynch, right guard.
 Joseph Burke, a substitute, gives much promise of good work in the fu- ture and will probably be regular on next seasons team.

Atlanta. Ga. April 1.-The Atlanta team gave the delivery of Walter Clarkson pounding yesterday that ClarksOn will not forget in hurry The game went ten innings, and At lanta won it : to f. The New York Americans led by score of to at the end of the eighth inning. but the hitting of the home team swamped them in the next two. This is their fourth defeat on this trip and second extra inning defeat. The way the At lantas hit Clarkson was unusual. They made n home run and single in the first inning and not a ghost of a hit after that until the ninth when they pounded Clarkson's speed so hard they loOsened the boards on the fences.
 They made eight hits in the ninth nnd tenth innings. of which five were two baggers. They made whirLwiild finish, and the New Workers were lost in the dust. Clarkson used the spit ball as well as the slow ball, but in the tumliltuous ninth and tenth all looked alike to Atlantas.
 The tying run In the ninth inning was sent home with single after two men had struck out. In the tenth il was not all Clarkson's fault. \ double play by New York was. made with two on bases and nobody getting in. hut then Conroy made n high throw to first. letting fin run. Chase made d superb one hand catch of the wild throw, but while he was in the air for the ball the hitter crossed the bag.

INTERSCHOJASTIC RASERAI

Announcement was made yesterday that the Middletown High school had dropped out of membership in the Connecticut Interscholastic Baseball association and would not take part in any of the championship games this year. The only reason given for the step Is that the principal of the school said the team would not he able to play. The withdrawal of Mid- dletown will necessitate change in the schedule for the teams in the eastern division of the league.
 The candidates for the New Haven High school team were out for prac- tice yesterday for the first time this year. About thirty-five boys reported. After the squad is cut down it is pro posed to have Billy Lush. the profes- sional coach of the Yale team. give the youngsters some pointers in the game.

Arizona Sketches.

This exceptionally interesting volume will be surprise to the average reader. The author Dr.. J. A. Munk from long residence in Arizona has been able to pre- sent very interesting book. Not many of us realize how many wonders there are within the con fines of one of our states. In vegetation alone there is condi- tion that cannot be duplicated anywhere else on the globe. Seven distinct life zones exist within a radius of twenty-five miles, running from the arctic to the tropic."
 The Grand Canyon is fully COW cred in a chapter in Arizona Sketches" and the scientific theories regarding its origin are sharply questioned, but a surprise is in store for the reader in the description of Meteorite Mountain, fully as marvellous as the Grand Canyon and very little known.
 In Arizona are the mysterious home of the Cliff Dwellers, that prehistoric people who seem al- Most Egyptian in character. Mummies, pottery and perfectly constructed buildings, utterly un- like anything constructed by any of the Indian races, testify to their civilization.
 Then as if to emphasize the di- versailles of this state, there are the haunts of the Moqui tribe, true aboriginies, declining to mix with the whites, and still prac- tising barbaric rites, like the snake dance, which is fully de- described in this volume.

It may be piece of superfluous advice to urge people at this season of the year to lay in sup pie of Chamberlain's Cough Rem edy. It is almost sure to be needed before winter is over, and much more prompt and satisfac- tory results are obtained when taken as soon as the cold is con tracted and before it has become settled in the system, which can only be done by keeping the remedy at hand This remedy is so widely known and so altogether good that no one should hesitate about buying it iu preference to any other. It is for sale by all drug gists

Territorial Fair Notes.


 The fair management IS arrang- ing for an amusement street on the fair grounds on the order of the midway at Chicago, the pike at St. Louis and the trail at Port land, but the street has not yet been named. In order to get the best possible name, MT. P. A.. Tharaldson, the superintendent of Permits and Privileges, is offering as a prize free admission to all the shows to the person who sug- gests the name that is adopted. Everybody is invited to write MT. Tharaldson and make their suggestion.
 The first day of the fair will be free to the school children of the territory and they are all invited to be present on that day as there will be a large school ex- hibit. This should be an inter esting day to scholars and teach CTS.
 The harness race will doubtless be the best ever held in the terri tory. The large stakes are at tracting the fast horses from all over the country and the track has proven a great surprise to even those who claimed it would be fast. Some of the horsemen think it will be the fastest in the United States and it is certainly goyd enough. While still un- finished, Col. Greene's three year old colt Billings, stepped the mile in 2.IIH. Watch for fast time in the free-for-all-race, the Bisbee Stake race. This race is set for Thursday, Dec. Sth.
 The railroad companies have agreed to give passenger rates of two Co cents per mile each way during the fair and this exception ally low rate will enable every body to attend and they are all ex- pected.
 One special feature of the fair will be the collection of old relics and curios. Paul Blizzard has agreed to care for these articles and they will be in the Woman S department. Every person who has any article of interest, is requested to communicate with MT. Brig gard.
