SOME GOOD F|ST|C
BATTLES WILL
Be FOUGHT
Gus Rubin, the Akron Giant,
Looking for Fitz, 0'Brien
Burns or Kaufman.

That Joe Gans-Dave Holly affair was
only the first of series of good pug
ilistic battles which have been arrang-
ed by the Twin City A. c. to take
place in Seattle. Two of them are to
come off this month Bobby Lundie,
who is considered by all Seattle fight
enthusiasts to be real top-notcher,
will go twenty rounds with the old
Seattle favorite, Rufe Turner. They
will weigh in at 1872 pounds ringside.
which is the proper weight for both
boys. This is considered the best
match that could be made for a Seattle
club, for both boys are extremely pop
ular there. Two preliminaries of high
class will precede the main event The
other bout arranged is rafting light
weight match, Jack O'Keefe, who has
a twenty round draw with Jimmy
Britt to his credit, and who also holds
decision over Britt, has signed to
box Cans twenty rounds at 1873 pounds
rlngside. Tom Corbett, the official ref
cree of the Twin City club, has been
selected to judge all of the contests.
Gus Rubin, the Akron giant is on
the trail Of the prominent heavy
weights. Gus would like to meet Bob
Fitzsimmons, Jack O'Brien. Sam Ber-
ger, AL Kaufman or Tommy Burns.
He says he is ready to take on any of
the above men and is not particular
as to the distance He saws that he
is just as willing to box twenty rounds
as six. Rubin has received an offer
from Philadelphia manager of twen-
fv.ftVQ nf hn
AL Kaufman for six rounds. Gus does
not think the goods large enough and
has wired back, stating that if the offer
was increased to thirty per cent, or if
the club would guarantee him $3.50 for
mis- end, he would accept the match
Up to the present he has received no
reply.
Old Bob Fitz. the auburn topped vet
eran of many encounters, is hoping
that he will not be overlooked when
the cards are dealt for the next op-
ponent for the new California giant.
He isn't particular about whom he
mixes with either. He will take on
Berger, Kaufman or O'Brien. Any one
of the trio will suit. Fitzsimmons is
ready to pull on the gloves once more.
He is spending most of his tic!e on the
farm at Dunellen in New Jersey. His
weight at present is IT'S pounds, and
he says he is in fine condition. All
that a club manager need do is to offer
him purse, and he will jump at it in
a twinkling.
Joe Walcott's return to pugilistic
prominence brought forth from a
prominent fistic commentator a sug-
gestion that should Tammany West
emerge from his retirement Walcott
would probably draw the line on him,
as West had given the Black Demon
many things of painful nature to re-
member when they met In the ring.
It is true that West once caught
Walcott when the latter was out of
condition or In a trance and wallopej
him quite freely, but no one Is better
aware of the fact than West that with
Walcott In condition he would have his
own troubles. i
It is hardly likely that West will
forget the terrible drubbing that he

got from Walcott in Madison Square
Garden, Aug. q, 1900. 1t is true that
the records show that West won that
battle in eleven rounds, but when he
came out of the ring he knew that
some awful things had happened to
him.
From the opening round till the elev-
enth. when Walcott broke his arm"
and lost the decision, the Black Demon
piled West with volley of hot shot
that took all of the steam out of the
white man and had him perilously near
to a knockout on several occasions.
The black fellow shot in rib roasters
and face punches until West. was in
distress, and then, when the bell
sounded for the beginning of the
twelfth round, Joseph mournfully an
nounced that he couldn't fight no
MORE" as he had broken his arm,
whereupon the decision went to West.
who would have had some difficulty
in facing the demon for the next
round
The bout was, of course, deliberate
fake, in which it was arranged that
Walcott was to break his arm at a
given signal and that the knowing fell
lows who had their money on West
would thus cash. Despite the fact that
West had decision over Walcott, the
black man was to 10 favorite,
and the whole thing looked SO fishy
that not much of killing was made
by the plotters.
Before the bout started Walcott was
given permission to wallop West to
his hearts content, with the Injunction
to be careful and not knock the white
boy out. Walcott followed instruction,
and while West got the decision he al
so got terrible beating.
Another individual who thinks he
has it on Berger is Tommy Burns, the
Detroit Italian, who came into promi-
nence by beating Marvin Hart, of
Louisville. Burns offers to meet Ber-
ger in a twenty-round battle with the
understanding that should he not put
Berger down for the count he would
forfeit all right to any consideration
regarding the financial end of the deal.
Burns is eager for battle with
OBrien or Berger, and in order to
tempt the latter into a go, made the
offer. He holds the San Francisco
HAL dn easy proposition and contends
that O'Brien merely wants to meet
Berger in order to pull down big gate
money.
Abe Attell is pursuing Jimmy Britt
SO persistently that a fight seems as
sured, and match may be on the taps
at almost any moment. Britt seems
to have been sidestepped by Battling
Nelson, and as he is one of the ener-
getic sort who believes in working all
the time. it can be said that he has
been casting flirtatious eyes at the lit
tie Hebrew champion, and the latter
is on the edge of the trap and almost
on the verge of falling in. AS an ex-
hibition of fast, scientific work moth
ing more could be desired-and that's
about all it would amount to.

Ardock Disbanded.

The Ardock baseball team disband-
ed last week. Oslo was to have play,
ed there last Saturday in the wind
up game of the season. but for some
reason they failed to connect and the
boys stacked their buds for the season.
Fourteen games were played during
the summer, seven of which we won
and like amount lost, 500 per cent.
Seven of the games were played on the
home grounds with a winning Of four,
and of the games played away three
were won and four lost Crystal and
Oslo failed to play return matches.
The boys had a very successful year
and are we'll satisfied. 1t is to be
hoped that next season they will be
able to get as good a team in the field.

TYPHOID IN WINNIPEG.
Special to The Evening Times.

Winnipeg, Man., Aug. 1.-THE num-
Der of cases of typhoid fever in the city
is continually increasing, though as
nearly as can be estimated it Is not so
great as at the same time last year.
The month of August has always been
the most prolific Of typhoid cases in
Winnipeg as 1t has been the case in all
northern cities as shown by statistics.
This peculiar condition has never been
satisfactorily accounted for by medical
authorities with whom 1t is a question
for much study. The matter as at
present before the authorities is that
of four of the city hotels where nearly
twenty cases of fever have developed
recently, mostly among the help. The
same milkman who supplies these
hotels supplies many others and also
large boarding houses, SO that 1t is
althogether unlikely that the milk
supply Is to blame for the large out
break of the disease. Throughout the
country the disease is very prevalent
and many cases are being brought to
the hospitals from all parts Of the
province.

 Two Lengths on Thames.
 In the presence of over 100000 people who lined the banks of the Thames and crowded innumerable excursion steam CTS. the crack eight of Cambridge de- feated Harvard's speedy crew over the famous Putney to Mortlake course. Two lengths separated the shells at the finish.
 Cambridges victory is regarded as a triumph for the English style of row ing. as the condition of the crews was such that there was little to choose be. tween them individually. Cambridge led from the start, breaking away at the signal with the swift stroke which was expected to put them to the front in the early stage of the race. Harvard made valiant effort to overtake the leaders hut was unable to do so.
 Harvard's crew was strong at the finish, every man being physically sound, while some of the men in the Cambridge shell showed signs of the severe strain.

 The Eliot descendants met In the Congregational church at 9:3O a. m, with George F. Eliot as chairman. The address of welcome was given by him. He laid special emphasis on the fact that Rector Jared Eliot was cele- brated as physician as well as a preacher in his time, for often in those days the professions were combined. Miss Ruth Eliot, daughter of Dr. Gus tavus Eliot of New Haven, read a pa- per on Mary Willis" a famous ances- ter and granddaughter of Governors Wyllis and Haynes of Colonial times. Dr. Ellsworth Eliot of New York then read a paper on Dr. Mitchell, the dis coverer of Mitchells Peak, and a de- scendant of John Eliot, Dr. Eliot's pa per was an account written from the story of a guide who discovered Dr. Mitchelrs body on the mountain, and on whose summit he is buried

Joseph Santley, in the stellar role. Billy the Kid' is reported to tell powerful story of certain phases of the freer life of the great southwest, for the scenes of the play are all laid in New Mexico, That of the second act represents locale which is absolutely unknown in the east, for it is faithful reproduction of a typical New Mexican saloon with dance hall in the rear. Here are forced to work number of white wo- men who are little better than slaves, but 1t is the turning of one of them
