SPORTS

The fight scheduled to occur be-
tween Jimmy Britt of America and
Jabez White, of England, will not take
place on the date fixed, and perhaps
not at all in this city, says a dis
patch from San Francisco. The Yose-
mite Athletic club has been refused
permit to hold a fight during April.
This action is not unexpected. For
some time it has been known that the
grand jury was investigating the prize
fight situation in San Francisco. Now
Foreman Andrews, of the grand jury,
which has the matter under considera-
ton, declares that money has been
freely used by fight promoters to get
permits for alleged amateur contests.
He adds that the grand jury will
make a full investigation ana asserts
that fights are clear cases of graft
from start to finish.
AS a result of the quarrel among
fight promoters and the grand jury it
is said here that there is a possibility
that the international battle between
Jimmy Britt and Jabez White may
be transferred to Tacoma. This has
been suggested and is said to be favor
able viewed by the White people. Britt
may not agree. He would rather bat
tie in San Francisco, where his pop
ularity is such that he cannot posi-
bly, get the worst of a decision.
Naturally the promoters are leav-
ing nothing undone to straighten out
the tangle. San Francisco has been
a profitable place for holding such
contests. Nothing has occurred here
recently to give bad color to the sport,
and there are many VINO believe that
the result of the grand jury inquiry
will be to weed out the Objectionable
and leave the desirable. At present,
however, boxing is dead in San Fran
cisco.
Picks Britt to Win.
Il think Britt will beat White" says
Tom Sharkey. Il am told White is a
good fellow and a good boxer. He
stands at the top Of his class in Eng
land. But the English style of box
ing and the American are different.
White fights too low and let's the
other man work in too mucn. Britt
will knock White out l believe. The
fight won't go more than fifteen
rounds before Britt gets in that punch
of his and does the trick. Britt is
too good for the Englishman. 1t will
be a good fight at that White is a
good man and will put up a fast fight,
but Britt will put him out; you'll
see.''

New Hotel,

Danvllle AdvOcate;--A report comes
from the little town of Lancaster that
handsome and cOmmOdiOus hotel
will shortly be erected by the public
spirited citizens of that place on the
site where the Garrard stood, which
was destroyed by fire about three years
ago. There is no better town i'm the
State for its size than the capitol of
Garrard. The citizens who have been
working to build the town up should
not meet with the opposition in this
new scheme that developed so strongly
when system of water works was
proposed. In view Of the fact that such
an enterprise will help the entire COM
munitY. it can be safely asserted that
its promoters will be benifited, by
enhancing the value of their own prop
erty, and that the people will regard
them as public benefactOrs.

Finest on the Line.

Lancaster people are justly proud
and very thankful for the handsome
new depot just erected by the L and N
railroad officials in this city. 1t is a
model of convenience, having three
large, attractive waiting rooms, STAIN
ed windows and ornamental woodwork
throughout. One room will be used
for the ladies waiting room, one for
men and the other for cOlOred passen-
gers. Agent Patterson has a large,
airy office, a new baggage room, three
large ticket windows and every other
convenience. Our people are very
thankful for this depot, which rail.
road men tell us is the finest on the
K G division. 1t is now up to the city
officials to see that loafers are kept
away, and good order maintained at
the depot. The railroad people pay
higher taxes than any one else, and
it's poor town who fails to afford the
company's property the same protec
tion it does anyone else. We have
been told that the new Lancaster de
pot cost e. 700.
