to-day under the most favorable weather
conditions on a track that was excep-
tionally fast and with a choice array OF
light harness horses. The meeting this
year has been cut from five TO two

down the number of starters.
The attraction of the day was the Blue

quickness and accuracy. Those who
have seen him in the ring pro-
nounce him one of the cleverest boxers
in the business. Any one who watches
him in the gymnasium marveis at his
work. Gardner is a clever bag puncher,
a finished boxer and fighter all over.
1t is expected he will be Z to 10 choice
over Rwan.
The Lowell boy is in the best Of
shape just now and will taper off on
his work from now on. He is always
fast and his wind is good enough to
allow him to go as long a route as
any one He interested the crowd yes
terday afternoon with his clever bag
punching, shadow boxing and rope
skipping. He then put on the gloves
and went three fast rounds with Joe
Angel. He has overcome the home
sickness he felt a few weeks ago and
is now one of the happiest persons
about the camp.
Experts who have seen both Gardner
and Ryan fight and who have also seen
both men in their training camps pre-
dict that the twenty-five round go set
for Friday night will be one of the
best ever seen in this vicinity.

DANE WILL NOT TRY FOR
ClEVERNESS.
Takes the Advice of Jack Root
and Sticks to Old Style.
JIMMY BRITT BEGINS BOXING

When Nelson's advisers had in view the
match with Britt it was their intention
to change the Danes style of fighting
and to develop cleverness in him to Off
set that quality in Britt. According to
Lou Houseman, the clever sporting edf-
tor Of the Chicago Inter Ocean, Jack Root
counseled against this, so the Hegewisch
man is going along at Larkspur develop
ing stamina and hitting power, upon
which qualities he will depend to bring
him victory. Houseman says in his col
umn.
Jack Root, who has just returned from
The coast, tells of an interesting talk he
had with both Nolan and Nelson. Man
ager and boy are both anxious 10 secure
Root to prepare Nelson for the battle.
Nolan figured that the finished boxer that
Root is might help him some in 'clevering
up the Illinoisan.
You don't want to get clever coun-
seled Root. Keep on lighting the way
you have been. It is a difficult matter to
make a man clever after going as far as
you have. Don't change your style. Billy
Meyer did this once, and with poor re-
suits. I'll come on and second and ad-
wise you in your fight with Britt, but
don't think that it would be good thing
for you to change, or even try to change,
your style of boxing -
Britt will sacrifice some of his speed to
develop the stamina required to carry
him a long journey at Colma- but this
loss will hardly be apparent during the
hight.
Yesterday was an active day at the
Britt camp The Californian put in
strenuous morning and afternoon and
the grind will continue until few days
before the contest. Jimmy with Tiv
Kreling spent the morning on the road
going through the park and around
Strawberry Hill. On his return to the
camp a plunge in the ocean freshened
him and also sharpened his appetite. 1t
is not necessary for Britt TO stint him
self when ii comes to eating as he has
no worry about the weight question.
The charge which has been exacted
during the last few days TO see Jimmy
training has proved effective. The reg
ulars and hangers on who usually lounge
about training quarters were conSpicu-
Gus by their absence.
No fee was charged yesterday as the
crowd that went to see the lightweight
go through his training maneuvers could
be comfortably handled. Britt's train
ers are determined that nothing shall
hinder their charge while training. They
claim when the gymnasium is crowded
the atmosphere is impure-a condition
they want to prevent
In the afternoon Britt spent an hour
and quarter at continuous work in the
gymnasium. He boxed five four minute
rounds with Tiv Kreling. In this they
mixed boxing and wrestling. The wrist
machine, punching bag and skipping the
rope completed his gymnasium work,
after which he took plunge in the
ocean
This afternoon Jimmy will box with Al
Kaufman, Manager William f. Britt and
Frank Rafael, who is to be with the
camp from now on.
With party of friends Jimmy attend
ed the performance at the Alcazar last
night He left Immediately afterward for
Sheehan's Tavern.

BATS MASCOT STILL MISSING.
PugiIfst Nelson Searching High and
Low for His Bull Terrier.

LARKSPUR, Aug 22-Battling Mel
son looked well this evening after his
hard days work. The only matter which
seemed TO disturb him was the nom
appearance of his bag-punching bull ter
rier Mike The mascot was lost on
the county road between here and San
Anselmo yesterday Mike" occupies the
closest spot TO Bats heart and no money
could persuade Bat to part with him. He
has frequently had admirers of the Won
derful canine mascot ask him to place
a price on him, but he would always
reply: He is not for sale"
Not hearing any news of Mike" from
the lately enrolled army of dog catchers
in Ross Valley, ne finished his gynnas-
ium work an hour earlier to-day in order
to search the valley on horseback before
dark He galloped rapidly away until
he reached the spot where he thinks
Mike was lost. He went over the terri
tory closely, making numerous inquiries,
but without success. 1t is probable some
covetous admirer of the canine has cap
tured the dog and will try to get out of
the county with him.
Bat, Manager Nolan, Brother Charlie,
Jimmie Gardner and his brother George,
Joe Angel. Kentfield Scott and others
warmed the road between here and San
Anselmo to-day at good jog. The pace
was too stiff for Nolan and Charlie Mel
son and a few others and they gradually
dropped away in the rear.
The weather was a trifie cool, but Nell
son came in with beads of perspiration
exuding from every pore. Martin Murphy,
the well-known fighter of years gone by
and trainer. took charge of Nelson and
gave him a good rub down and bath.
After luncheon he perused the papers
and wrote couple of notes. He spent
forty-fve minutes in the gymnasium in
the afternoon, opening every window in
order to have plenty of air passing
through the room. He punched the sand
bag had the punching bag beating a
lively tattoo on the platform, gave the
wrist machine several turns and skipped
rope doing some fancy work. The spec
tators enjoyed the three three-minute
rounds which took place between Bat
and Joe Angel. The bout concluded
Bats gymnasium for the day. This even
ing. in company with Nolan and friend.
he had his half-hour row over the two
mile course of the Escalle Yacht Club.
Nelson retires at 9 and peacefully
slumbers until Z. when he arrives and
breakfasts at 7:30.
