SPECIAL DIsPATCH TO THE cALr.

Z CHICAGO. Dec. 2O-"The story that

cent for that coon. and, 1 wouldn't
There is only one fight the people Of
Nevada want or will patronize. That
is return match between Cans and
Nelson. I stand prepared to put up
$4,000 cash for that fight I know
that 1T would draw $4,000 to the
gate"
Thus spoke Tex Richard. the Nevada
fight promoter. at the Auditorium An

tinue his way West

patrick asked me to stand for an Of

he wanted to boost the negro. and

CANS MUCH TALLER
THAN HIS NEXT
OPPONENT

The students of boxing who find pas
time in figuring out the merits of two
boxers through a table of their meas
urements will find comparison of
Cans and Herman an interesting study.
For the first time in years Cans will
fight a man considerably smaller than
himself He is three inches taller
than Herman, while Nelson was three
quarters of an inch taller than the
Baltimore man.
Cans has an advantage of nearly i've
inches in reach over his next opponent,
where he had an advantage of four
inches over Nelson. This matter of
reach is deceptive comparison, as lack
Of it does not seem to prevent a good
man from winning when he has the
class over an opponent. From the
waist down there Is but little differ
ence In the conformation of the rival
gladiators.
Cans has the most wonderful under
pinning of any boxer in the ring. With
all the strain of training on the road
and in the gymnasium for many years,
and then the actual contests in the
ring, there is not blemish on his
legs. While they seem slight, they
have carried him through many trying
places in the heat of competition. The
measurements of the boxers follow:
CANS. HERMAN.

The Butterflies handicap for all ages,

feature of the card for today at Emery
vile and will tring together a fair
field of sprinters. of which the mighty
Shot Gun is the class. Jennings noted
son of Artillery has been assigned the
top weight of 126 pounds, and despite
the fact that the race is at longer
distance than he! is ordinarily supposed
to like, he will undoubtedly go to the
post short priced favorite. Shot Gun
is probably in better condition at pres
ent than ever before in his long and
successful career He has hitherto
packed $50 pounds to victory over
shorter route. He has won with lighter
weight up at seven furlongs. Brown

are that he will win all the way. Ro-

gerous ones in fhe race. IF Miller rides

There is little class to the other
races but they. promise some excellent

The opener is FIR maidens, and several
of the twelve entered look to have a
chance. The Skipper is a speedy trick
and has beers running with better
horses in his s,nly two starts. Last

good boy up soday he may graduate.

Finnigan slipped down will never be
known, but when the latter's head
hit the inadequately padded floor of
the ring he went out. Carroll is
credited with having knocked him out.

some resounding blows struck are
those in which Mauro Herrera and
Iron Man. Charley Dunn and Johnny
Murphy and Jack McFadden are the
principals These men usually throw
all science to the winds and sail in
to wipe an opponent off the map.

AUTO ENTHUSIAST
RETURNS FROM
THE SHOW

G. a. Hawkins, manager Of the West
ern sales department of the White
Company, has returned to the coast
from Chicago. Hawkins, in an inter-
view yesterday, said:
While away I attended the automo-
bile show in New York The White
Company had the largest exhibit and
made the greatest number of retail
sales.
1.-THE White car for the coming year
is great improvement over the other
cars turned out by our company. 1t has
five-inch rear tires. The springs are
forty eight inches long and three
inches wide. The generator is of the
same capacity as that of the famous
'Whistling Billy which holds the
worlds mile record of 4S 3-5 seconds
Webb Jay, who took it through the
fence at the races held in Buffalo a
couple of years ago, thinks the car
is still winner and is willing to try
to prove it. The engine of the 1907
car is stronger and more powerful
than in the celebrated racing car.
THE greatest feature in the 1907
White car is the new regulating sys-
tenn of steam generation, which main
tains an approximately constant pres
sure under all ordinary operating con-
ditions. whether up hill or down. and
makes 1t as automatic as an electric
motor to operate.
1.-THE condenser is three to four times
as efficient as in previous models and
the gasoline consumption is less on the
average than heretofore"
Thomas H. White, president and
founder of the White Sewing Machine
Company, accompanied by Mrs. White
and Miss Ella White, are in San Fran
cisco to spend Christmas with c. A.
Hawkins.
White has practically retired from
business, the management of the
automobile business is entirely in the
hands of his three sons-Windsor r.
White president of the newly organized
White Company, which has taken over
the entire automobile business of the
White Sewing Machine Company
A unique automobile tour is about
to be made across the country, from
the Good Will Farm at Houghton,
Mich. A car has been specially built
to carry twenty-one orphans, who will
make the trip to Seattle. They will
stop at the principal towns en- route
and give shows. The proceeds will be
devoted to the orphanage at Houghton.

POLO ON ROLLERS

DIVERSION

Polo in any form is an exciting sport
and now the managers of the skating
Kinks are about to present polo be-
tween expert skaters from the cities
in the interior. The first of a series of
match games will be played at the
Auditorium, corner of Page and Fill
more streets, on Saturday night. The
opposing teams will be from this city
and from Vallejo. The same teams
will play on Sunday and Monday nights.
On Christmas day and evening the
poloists from Santa Rosa will play the
Auditorium team and some interesting
matches are expected. The Auditorium
has been especially prepared for roller
polo. wire netting protecting the spec
tators and the entire building having
been wainscoted-
If polo advances in popularity it is
purposed to form coast league, which
will include teams from all the large
cities and regular schedule will be
arranged. Many expert skaters are
being developed and the new game
gives them an opportunity to display
their skin on the rollers.

The last of the four-round boxing
bouts of the present year will be
held in Dreamland Pavilion tonight
under the auspices of the Occidental
Athletic Club. The programme has
been so arranged that there should
be some clever boxing, a couple of
bouts in which there should be more
hard hitting than science and one
comedy bout to relieve the strain on
the nerves of the spectators.
The skilled boxers are Jimmy Car
roll and Harry Jones, and they are
expected to put up fast bout. Car
roll has gone to the front rapidly dur
ing the last year. He made a hit
by defeating George Finnigan some
weeks since. Whether it was the

Gossip of the Track

The track seems to be drying out
more slowly than heretofore when 1t
has been as thoroughly soaked by the
rains. The absence. of drying wind
from the north and the dampness in
the atmosphere are assigned as con-
tributory TO the long continued heavi-
ness OF the course. The morning gall
lopers are still being sent around the
sticks, and for that reason workouts
possess little significance. Shot Gun
ran very impressively in a trial six
furiongs yesterday, however, and COW
cred the distance In 1:23-a much bet
ter showing than was made by any
other horse that was sent around the
sticks during the day.
Al Konigsberger bid Baker UP from
$500 TO $500 after that horse won the
fifth race yesterday, and E. G. Sweitzer
did not care TO retain the horse at
any such figure. Konigsberger added
Baker TO the string that Billy Cahill
is handing for him.
Two other sales were also report
ed during the day. Barney Schneider
disposed Of The Only Way to William
Walker on private terms, and Al
White purchased Anvil from Charley
Murray. The latter will continue to
train the horse.
The stewards conducted an inquiry
into the poor showing made by Bush
thorpe, the heavily played favorite in
the first race. Jockey Mcintyre told
them that his mount had been pinched
out by other horses when the barrier
went UP. end consequently failed to
break with the rest Of the field
The officials of the track will allow
no coming two-year-olds to start in
the Juvenile races after the first of
January that have not been thorough
" schooled at the barrier. Only a
small proportion of the owners have
so far taken advantage of the oppor-
yearlings
