VERY POOR JOKE.

The party who represented himself as Kid Smiths manager over the tele- phone yesterday had better call here after if he desires to use the columns of the Democrat. Perhaps he thought it good joke, but he only hurt others who may want to send in sporting news over the telephone. Kid Smith called at the Democrat office last evell- ing to say that he would have no more to do with Gresham because of the fact that he believes Gresham has withdrawn his. Kid Smiths name. Now. as far as the writer knows. Gresham is as innocent as any man in Waterbury. The telephone message came to the writer yesterday morning and the party at the other end said that he was Kid smiths manager anu, he wanted his name kept off the chai- lepge to Lawson as Smith was sick Perhaps there was some object ill doing. this. but now that everything is explained Smith and Gresham can get together and arrange for their match with Lawson if they so desire.

WRESTLING
EVENT OF SEASON
John E. Kelly and Young Muldoon Are Matched to Meet on the
 Eleventh of January.

Now comes the first real big wrest- ling tournament of the winter, for a match was closed last night which will bring together two wrestlers who are known to all the sporting men in New England. Representatives of John E.. Kelly and Young AIuldOon of New York got together last night and after considerable discussion q match was arranged between the two to take place in the Sinlonsville Athletic club on Thursday evening, January Il. The men are to weigh in at 13S pounds and they will wrestle for a purse of SlOO and 90 per cent of the gross receipts of the house, the winner to take every thing. This is the first time that Kelly has appeared on the mat since his defeat by Ed O'Connell of New Haven. He felt that defeat pretty and night to get himself back into his old condition to get another chance at O'Connell. He feels that if he can beat Young Muldoon that he will be given that chance. Muldoon is one Of the cleverest of the New York wrest. lers and has beaten them all up to George Bothner, but could never force that clever grappler into match. He, too. wants crack at O'Connell, and by beating Kelly believes he can get it. There will be two preliminaries. one of them being between Kid Smith of the Brooklyn A. c. and Young Mori- arty of the South End A. c. The other preliminary is not just ready to be announced.

 T am going to win the next Derby and then quit the track" said Maher to a friend the other day. ''I am anx- ious to be at the very top when I re tire from the turf. and I think I shal. % in for automobiling."

PATSY sWEENY AGAIN.

New York, Jan 3.-George Jansen and Patsy Sweeny fought a rough ! three round draw at the stag of the Colma A. C.. in West 125th street, last night. Both boys are exceptionally strong. but they were so anxious to land telling punch that they kept continually running into clinches and the go resembled wrestling match.
 The first round opened with rush. and after each man had missed dou- ble swing they clincbed and resorted to infighting. Sweeny put some heavy kidney blows over in the mix-up and Jansen played for the. jaw. When the bell rang both men were fighting hard. landing blows that left red marks on their bodies.
 In the second round Jansen estab- lished slight lead by banging his op- ponent on the jaw. and in the follow ing mix-up Sweeny stepped partly out of the ring, bruising his shin. The third round was fast. Both men were out for blood. and after the first min ute of milling Sweeny evened the score by putting hard right over Jansen's heart, which made the latter cover up. When the final bell was sounded hon. ors were about even.
 In the opening bout Willie Shumaker gave away fifteen pounds to Young Guarini of Jersey. and then showed how easy it was to keep out of the heavier mans way, intermittently pecking in a left jab to keep things interesting.
 The next bout was between Kid Slane and Kid Travers. This go was So ehildishly amateurish that Pete Donnelly. the referee. decided to stOf Ii.
 In the other events Owen Flynn haG the better of Mike Donegan in a play s-i %. Tommy 0'Connor and Jack D5aohue boxed a draw. and Bobby Adler bested Tommy Murphy of ter ser in one of the best bouts of the Craufur

BASE BALL NOTES.

Rube Waddell thinks that Cy Young of the Boston Americans is the best pitcher living. Rube ought 10 know.
 Leifield. the pitcher secured by Pitts burg from Des Moines last season, has a record of twenty-three victories in thirty-one games.
 Charley Carr. the tall first basemar with Cleveland last season, says the Cleveland grounds helped to affect his batting.
 Thirty years ago Ned Hanlon was a member of the Rhode Island club of Providence. which landed the New England championship.
 John Ganzel. Charley's brother. is credited with having earned sI.000 last season. and he is preparing to add an. other figure to that showing in 1906.
 Manager Fred Clarke of the Pitts burgs says he made the trip to New York clear from his farm in Winfield. Kan. solely to land Vic Willis. He cer- tainly succeeded.
 Outfielder Left Davis. once major leaguer. and last season with Colum- bus. where he will play the coming year. is doing handsomely with his venture in Minneapolis.
 A Providence writer says that the Boston Nationals get full measure in the deal of Willis for Lindeman. as the latter has ali the earmarks of a star. and that's no pipe dream either.
 Chicago wants tO know the equal of its -Sheckard. Stagle. Schulie and Sebring. Well there's no telling whether Sebring reports. hut most peo- ple would prefer Duffy's trio in min ute-Magee. Thomas and Titus.
 Silk O'Loughlin. the well known American league umpire. inelines to the opinion that batting would bc helped if the pitcher were put ten feet farther back. but Elmer smith. for merly one of the hardest hitters in base l,aIl. says that before the season had advanced six weeks the pitchers would be more effective than ever. Pitcher McGinnity sa.-s he thinks he would be more effective if be were moved back. and that the same thing would be true of Christy Nathewsen-

THE SPORTING NEWS.

ABOUT THE TEAMS
Interesting Stories of What is Being Done by the Managers and
 Players.

Ball players all over the country are waiting for their 1906 contracts with more than usual eagerness. for an un- confirmed rumor is in circulation that many salaries will be greatly reduced. During the war between the two big leagues players salaries were boosted to the skies. It was frequently the case that some of the National league players did not jump to the American league before they had received guar anteed contracts for two or three years, calling for as much as S6,O00 or even SS,000 year. Nearly all of these contracts expired last fall, and as the rival magnates are at peace un- der the provisions of the national agreement, they feel at liberty to offer lower terms to the high class perform CTS. While there is no salary limit in vogue in the two big leagues, it win not be at all surprising if they reach an agreement of this kind before an other year. It was not so many years ago that the National league, when it was a twelve club monopoly had a limit of $2.40O, which was finally abol- ished because the club owners them selves could not live up to the terms of it. Then came the base ball war and a general demand on the part of the players for salaries that were eX- Orbitant But the warning magnates paid them. even though they lost money. Some of the players who are regarded as indispensable can practi- cally dictate their own terms, but they are comparatively few in number. Tho rank and file, however. must stand a cut or jump to the ''outiaw league" which hasn't room for everybody, II must be remembered.

ROTHNER AND SWANSON.

New York. Jan 3.--Sliding weights in the boxing game have found their way into wrestling. and now there is a lightweight championship wrestling match proposed in which the men are to weigh in at 139 pounds.
 This is the ringside weight agreed upon for the meeting between George Bothner and Alex Swanson. who wilt come together on the night of January 12 in Grand Central Palace in finish catch-as-catch-can match. best two out of three falls.
 There is no denying that George Bothner is the champion lightweight wrestler. but there is no kind of req soning that would make a match at 139 pounds ringside lightweight con test. and it will surely not decide any championship under any rule of the sport. That part of it. however. makes little difference. The main thing is that the boys are matched, and it is a pleasant relief after the shooting to and fro of letters in the newspapers.
 This 139-pound arrangement is some thing of q concession for Bothner to make. He earned the title of light weight champion at the weight limit. and Swanson is really much nearer the welterweight class than he is the lightweight.
 The way weights have been juggled of late in all the boxing and wrestling bouts induced him to challenge for the lightweight title. and he has been ac- commOdated by matcn with the champion. hut surely not at the light weight limit. and q match that could not possibly go on any record as a bout for the lightweight wrestling championship.
 Bothner. the champion. is practically meeting him at catch weights. though 139 pounds will he about as low as Swanson can go on the mat and still be strong.

BILLIARDS.
Championship of World to Be Decided
 ill New York.

III .NeW lOTk.
 To settle the championship of the world billiard tournament will be played at Madison Square Garden, be- ginning April and lasting two weeks.
 Six of the greatest living opponents of the game will compete for d medal emblematic of first place among the professionals. The players who will participate in the tourney are Jake Schaefer. Slosson. Sutton, Ora Morn- ingstar, Hoppe and Cure. the French man.
 A committee promoting the tourney is now arranging the details. and it is the intention of the promoters to make the affair the biggest ever known ill the billiard world.
 Julius Bake of Chicago is one of the leading spirits in trying to get the top-notch professionals together again to stimulate the interest in billiards.
 The style of game to be played will be 1S-inch balkline, two shots in.
 After the championship has been de- cided in New York an effort will be made to have the entire list of coll testants go to Chicago to compete in q round-robin tournament for some spe- cial prizes of considerable value.
 George Slosson anticipates an early trip to Paris to rejuvenate the "acad- .emies." In ease Hoppe fails to take the measure of vignaux at 1S.1 when they meet January n. Slosson says he will challenge the Frenchman.
 Victory for either Hoppe or Siosson would delight billiardists in this eoun- try. as it would give more champion- ship character to the coming profes- sional tournament in New York.

DAN. PATCH RECORD.
Resume of Greatest Harness Horse in
 the World.


 Lexington, Jan 3.-A full resume of the performance of the champion har- ness horse of the world, Dan Patch, 1 :55A, compiled here by an authority, shows that the stallion has paced thir- ty-six miles ill from 2:01h to 1:55A, nine miles of which averaged 1:5I F., and six miles 1.5S.
 Since he began his exhibition career of last year, September, 1905. in, sixty six days he paced no less than seven miles under 200. During this period he broke four worlds records and the Canadian half-mile track record, trav- eled 5000 miles after making a stud season. which did not end until the 10th of June, and during which period no less than fifty-two mares were mated to him.
 Dan Patch never lost a race in his racing career. and of the fifty-six con tested heats he lost only two. In one of these he hit the wheel of his sulky and in the other was laid up. as his driver, McHenry. wished to thus size up the field, which was one of much class.
 Among some of. the great horses he defeated in races are Connor. 2:03Ia |: Searchlight., 2:03A: Harold H.. 2:O4; Indiana. 204&. and Riley B., 2:06A NJ. w. Savage, the owner of the horse writes here that dan Patch's program in 1906 will be in the stud until June and then out once more in an attempt to still increase his track fame. To keep him in condition for hard train ing during the coming season, the champion will be logged all winter hitched to sleigh oil the streets oi Minneapolis. It is estimated that a quarter of a million people witnessed Dan Patch's speed exhibitions in 1905.

Nearly everyone connected with Connecticut league baseball al- ways thought that Paddy was pretty we'll supplied with joys as a member of the Springfield Ponies. Whether the rugged backstop is talking to the stands or not, isn't known.
