When he was asked the other day If he would meet the. winner of the O'Brien and Ber- ger fight, he hummed and hawed a little, and then said: Well, I've promised my mother not to fight any more; she Is opposed to 1t. and she is pretty old now.
 Fighting Is not what it's cracked up to be-" said Jeffries, "and there is not as much money In 1t as one would think. 1 couldn't we'll aford to fight for $10.000 purse, as spend that amount of money in a year for living expenses. You see, l 1.-Two well. 2" 7-'si

THE DIAM OND
ONE WINS AND
 OTHER LOSES
Springfield Defeated Worcester Once More While Norwich Lost
 the Third Straight to Lynn.

Worcester, Sept 13-Springfield made it two out of three by winning from Worcester yesterday afternoon, 6 to 3. Luby was in the box for Springfield, while Burkett put Frock against the Ponies for the second time in this series. Luby had the better of the argument, letting up only in the sixth, when Worcester punched three singles with double and base on balls that scored three runs.
 The crowd rooted hard for Worces- ter to continue the run getting after this inning, but Luby settled down and stopped W9rcester's rally. Spring field went out in order in the first in- ming, but went right after the game in the second when they scored four runs on two hits, coupled with errors by the Worcester fielders. Keane and O'Rourke played a fast game in their positions, and won frequent applause from the crowd. These two have cer- tainly taken a fast hold on the fans in this city.
 Billy Dyer, who was with Holyoke IOT SllOTl WulIc IlliS sedSoH, CUNSiSu second for Worcester, Chadbourne so- ing back to his old position in left Walls strained ligament keeping him on the bench. In the second Inning, Meagher was removed from the game by Burkett, Dyer going to short, Chadbourne covering second, and Hartman going to left.
 The Ponies were without the ser vices of Pat O'Connor. Robarge was behind the bat, and Long capered about in the right field. The latter player drove in two runs with tlme- ly single. Tom Standard was in left again and got in pretty catch off his fellow colleglan. Billy Dyer WOr- cester fielded wretchedly, making eight errors during the game. The score:
