ATTELL IS READY.

Abe AttelI writes from West Baden, Ind, that Battling Nelson and his man. ager. Billy Nolan, are not on the level, and tried to sidetrack Abe in their re- cent fight in Philadelphia. Abe says that the Dane agreed to weigh in at 130 pounds, but refused to get on the scales. although Attell said he would fight him if he weighed ton. Attell says that Lee Harrison will back him against either Britt or 'NeIson for twenty rounds for 5000 if the men will agree to make the same weight for him that they made for Young Corbett, namely, 129 pounds Abe calls atten- ton to his record of over 190 fights. most of which were twenty rounds. He has only lost three times. never by q knockout, and has only had one black eye. which same was handed to him by Eddie Hanlon. His one de- sire now is to fight Nelson or Britt. and he is not particular which comes first He is the featherweight cham pion, he says, but always has togo ou. of his class to get on a match.

Passaic, June 3.--A brutal prize fight, pulled off in a deserted barn in DelawaIina. just outside the Passaic city limits Thursday night. ended in a general row in which fighters. officials and spectators joined. Alexander Dun sheath of Passaic and Johnny Mawhin- ney of Paterson, lightweight pugilists of considerable local notoriety. were matched for a finished fight, the tip had been quietly passed around among those interested in the sport, and the barn in which the mill was held was filled. Dunsheath, at the end of the third round, sent blow to his op- ponent's jaw with such force that his right arm was broken at the wrist. Dropping the arm to his side. the Pas safe boy continued the fight with his left and had his opponent nearly beaten when at the end of the seventh round he declared he could go no further. A howl arose from his packers and the

 Cronan. Gresham. Owens.

City hall has been engaged Tor one of the best wrestling events of the sea son, which will take place either on June 2 or one week later. It will eclipse the John E. Kelly and Ed O'connell match in that it will be all event in which the championship of the world In the welterweight class will be at issue. The articles of agreement have not yet been drawn, but the rep resentatiyes of Alex Swanson of this city and Billy Cnaki of Bridgeport will meet in the Democrat office on Thursday, June 8, at some hour that will be accommodating to both parties, to decide on the specifications. Swan son now claims the championship of the world at 145 pounds. at which weight he wants to wrestle. He has defeated Harvey Parker. the Little Demon,v at that weight. and he will wager all kinds of money he can beat Cnaki at the same weight. He has aI ready posted a forfeit with the sport. ing editor of the Democrat to bind. the match. There is no doubt but what Dick Howell of Bridgeport, manage- of Billy Cnaki, will take up the offer. for he has been anxious to pit his man against Swanson or any of the top nOtchers. assl i
 The affair will be managed by a CO terie of citizens who are interested in sporting events and they will stand all expenses in connection with the match. They have already engaged the sport Ing editor of the Democrat to look after the management of the tOurna- ment and his first act was to secure City hall, and this has been done The management will make an offer to other wrestlers to cbmpete on that evening, so that there will be three star bouts. John E. Kelly and Jack Roach are about matched and Roach has already posted his forfeit of S25. and Kelly expects to do so in day or So. Both these wrestlers have inti- mated in their articles that they were willing to wrestle for the side bet of $50 each in private or before q club. The management will make them an offer to put up their $50 side and then wrestle for purse which will be hung up by the club. This will be a good chance for Kelly and Roach to settle their differences.
 Another match which the manage ment wants Is that between George Gresham and Dick Owens. These two chaps met Thursday night before the Simonsville Athletic club and Gresham was declared the winneniaiAInnager Curtiss. for Owens, is not satisfied that

Young corbett Whipped By Eddie Hanlon - Nelson Trimmed By Kid Sullivan Other Fight News.

San Francisco, June 3.-Eddie Han Ion fought Young Corbett to q stand still during the last few rounds of a twenty round contest and got a hard earned decision from Referee HOman at the end of the twentieth round, last night.
 The fight was an exciting one from start to finish. During the first part of the contest Hanlon had slight ad- vantage, but no harm was done to either man. Then Hanlon rushed Cor bett to the ropes. but the Denver man stalled Hanlon off and blocked num- Der of stomach punches.
 Corbett got to the center of the ring and in q mix-up put left and right swings on Hanlon's jaw. Hanlon went to his knees and took the count of nine. He came up fighting and in spite of Corbett's strenuous efforts to put him out, he finished the round strong. For the next two rounds Cor bett went at his man, and in the thir- teenth had Hanlon very tired. Han Ion braced up in the fourteenth and seemed to have slight margin over COrbett. The fifteenth round was
  about even. Hanlon landed a left and right 10 the jaw. but did no harm. The sixteenth round was Corbett's. The seventeenth was Hanlon's round. The eighteenth was about even. although COrbett had a shade the better of it at the end.
 The nineteenth and twentieth were all Hanlon's. All during the nine- teenth he stood up close to COrbett, away at the Denver boys stomach. Corbett was tired and could not hit back.
 In the twentieth Hanlon came up strong and went right at his man. They stood breast to breast, each with his head to the others shoulder. and slugged for all that was fin them. Han- lon was the stronger and forced Cor bett around the ring, playing a lively tattoo on his stomach. He fought Cor bett against the ropes and had him at his mercy. Corbett came very near going off the platform. but staggered

JACK MUNROE TRAINING.

Jack Mmnroe. the Butte miner. and Willie Lewis. the lightweight, have es- tablished training quarters 1T Scharles's hotel, on Jermoe avenue, near Woodlawn. Jim Calvin and Phil Kelly have joined the camp and will train the men.
 Munroe will in all probability be seen in action in the Quaker city with in the next few weeks. He has been down south all winter and returned re- gently prepared to box any of the heavyweig.ts.
 Jack OBrien. Marvin Hart and Jack Johnson have been mentioned as pros pective opponents. and il is likely that Mnnroe will meet one of the three men. Lewis is going to make an effort to get down to 130 pounds in order to fight Nelson. That is the weight demanded by the Dane. and Lewis. who is a lightweight. has an idea that. with sev. eral weeks strenuous work, lie can make the weight

HACK AND GOTCH.

Some lovers of wrestling would like to see Hackenschmidt and Gotch come together, if only to convince the IOwan that Hackenschmidt is really great in his line. Gotch might succeed in pug zling the foreigner with some of his leg work. of which Hackenschmidt knows but very little. But after Hac- kenschmidt got down to business and asserted his herculean strength Gotch would soon be at the mercy of the in- vincible lion. That match between Gotch and Hackenschmidt would be a fine drawing card in England. there is no denying. Hackenschmidts popu- larity in England and the fact that Gotch is an American would help at tract large crowd.

In an ar gument that followed tiie referee was knocked down and genQeal pix-up followed in which bricks Nnd stones played prominent part. An oil lamp near the ring was knocked down and set fire to the building and the crowd
 fled. Dunsheath was taken to tine office of a Passaic physician.

SULLIVAN NELSON.

SULLIVAN NELSON. Baltimore, June Kid Sullivan of Washington put it all over Battling Nelson of Chicago in their six round bout before the Eureka Athletic club here last night. but the referee. proba- bly acting under orders, gave his yer dict as q draw.
 Sullivan had the better of each round after the first. and several times had the Dane hanging on to save him. self. Once the Kid knocked him through the ropes with a clean left swing.
 The first round was even, with botk men jabbing and clinching in the at tempt to feel out the other. In the sec ond Sullivan came up as though he were sure the Dane could not hurt him, and accordingly took all kinds of chances. He iahbed and swung and cOuntered recklessly on Nelson. but the latter could not come back with much effect, and the round was easily Sully's. Once or twice he rocked the Dane with hard lefts straight on the jaw.
 Sullivan further increased his lead in the third. and had matters all his own way. Twice he staggered Nelson with hard right hooks on the jaw as the Dane came rushing in with his head down. In the fourth Sullivan got even better. and once, after rushing the Dane to the ropes, the Kid landed a hard left clean on the jaw that knocked the Dane out through the ropes. After that Nelson swung hard for a knockout three times, but missed by mile each time. It was again Sullivan's round.
 But in the fifth Sullivan set the crowd wild by putting it all over .'the Battler," and had him hanging on at the bell to save himself. The specta- tors were in an uproar. cheering the Washington lad. He had rushed Nell son all over the ring and landed three blows to the Danes one throughout the round. and they were all telling blows at that.
 Like all the other rounds. the last was all Sullivan's. and he had the Dane covering up at the bell. How the ref cree had the face to get mp before the crowd and say Draw" is beyond be- lief. no matter what his instructions may have been.
 Before the battle Kid Sullivan weighed in at 128 pounds, but the Dane refused to get anywhere near pair of scales, as though his weight were a Japanese government secret.

WILEY WARNS BoTHNER.

Max Wiley of Rochester. who is now being handled by Harvey Parker, re- gards the skill of George Bothner rath- CT lightly. He thinks that Bothner's reputation is of newspaper-made kind and that he will not leopard that repu- tation in match with himself. Now, no one likes boaster and do not wish to be rated as such," said Wiley, but money talks in this big world, as you know. Bothner has contended that he is the legitimate lightweight cham pion and all that, but it seems strange that he will not wrestle any one who Is prepared to do business at 133 or 135 pounds. am as well known as Both- ner. although have not wrestled very frequently in this city.

''Shad" Link of Baltimore is iooxing for chance to meet Tom Jenkins. Link, while not an ideal heavyweight. is strong, husky fellow, clever and willing. He has not had the chance that his reputation deserves. but in every match in which he has partici- pated thus far he has shown fine form. Links victories, though have been oyer men who have not stood very high in the estimation of the public in Their re- spective classes. Still this is no fault of Links. for he has tried his level best to secure opponents of acknowl- edged skill and reputation. Link de

COLUMBIA COURIER

In view of the fact that Rev. Mr..
Dry took occasion to criticize this
paper from his pulpit last night on
the grounds that we had not given
the revival meetings more publicity
we would like to state for the bene-
fit of those who may have given
some weight to his remarks that
when those meetings were first an
nounced we requested the ministers
Interested to furnish US with such
reports of the services as they con-
sidered necessary as we would
possibly be too busy to look after
them satisfactorily. This request
was complied with by one of the
gentlemen on two occasions. Mr..
Dry had the same invitation but
never came near our office during
the meetings, not even to introduce
us to the Evangelists who conduct
ed the services. Now under the
circumstances we cannot see where
the reverend gentleman has any
foundation for his criticism. Every
minister in the city will bear us
out in the statement that we have
been not only willing but anxious
to publish any church news that is
furnished us.

THE surgeons at New Orleans de-
clare that the fight against the yellow
fever has been won, and that there is
no longer any danger of the disease
getting beyond control. The whole
country will breathe sigh of relief at
the announcement, not only because
the present outbreak has passed the
danger point, but also because the
success of the federal authorities in
this instance gives every assurance
that any other outbreak in the future
can be stamped out before it gets be-

WAS. GREAT SUCCESS
Reunion of Racine and Kenosha
County Veterans at Evergreen
Park Proves Enjoyable Event
NEXT MEET AT UNION GROVE

The fifth annual picnic and reunion
of the Racine and Kenosha county
veterans association was held at Ever
green park on Labor day, and the af-
fair was attended with the greatest
success. Practically every old soldier
in the two counties was present with
his family and friends, and as no de-
tails had been omitted in preparing
for the event the day was most
thoroughly enjoyed.
After the regular program prepared
for the edifcation of those attending
the reunion the old vets gathered IN
groups and discussed with intense in
terest scenes and incidents of a half
century ago, and although their num-
bers are greatly depleted and are be-
coming more so as the years pass,
nothing but merriment prevailed as
war memories were recalled and COM
mented upon.
The business meeting was called to
order by Captain David Byard, COM
mander of Governor Harvey post of
Racine.
The annual election of officers of the
society was held, and the following
members named to head the organiza-
ton for the coming year: President,
Edward Buchan of Union Grove; sec
rotary and treasurer, F. H. Lyman of
Kenosha. The vice presidents of the
order comprise all the commanders of
the various G. A. r. posts in the two
counties. 1t was decided to hold the
next reunion on Labor day, 1906, at
Union Grove.
An excellent program was rendered
during the day. Several selections by
quartette composed of ]. D. Row
lands, Darwin Jones, ]. T. Rowlands
and T. M. Jones of Racine were favor
ably received and heartily encored.
The address of the day was made by
Rev. A. C. Grier, who spoke particu-
1ar1y of the life of the soldier and the
sacrifices made by them during the
time of the civil war.
Recitations by e. Enos and Miss
Poe1man, together with solo by Prof.
Menge, were likewise appreciated and
favorab1y received.
AS whole the day proved a most
suspicious one for the old soldiers and
will be long remembered by them.
