Sandy Ferguson.
Stubborn Fighter Who WO"'f
Train Unien He Feels
Il Like II.

1t is doubtful IL there is anOther cas-
in the annals OF the prize ring like that
Of John II. Ferguson, who sails under
the sObriquet of SANDY" mere IL
without doubt one of the greates'
heavyweights of the last decade. Inat
is as far as fighting ability goes, but In
NO other way.
He has been fighting for eight years
and In all those years instead Oh payins
attention to the game be LOOK up io' .
livelihood and trying to boost niIns,
along he has stood in his Own ilght ahu
never let a chance slip by to 90 Nun
self an injury without taking ruii ao-
vantage of it. He wouldn't train; ne
would disappOint fighters, managers
aud club promoters with a consistency
worthy of a better cause, ana even
when they did get him In the ring II
was about two to one he would make
one of his miserable fights. o II
then he would feel right, and when ne
did it was bad news for his opponent
If Ferguson had the head Of Jim COr-
bett or Kid Mccoy he would be the one
man In the world to have maintained an
absolute despOtism among the heavy
weights. He has the physical ABILITY 10
make a great fight with Jenrles, Out
for some unaccOuntable reason mas JUST
moped along and, instead of being
rated up with the top nOtchers, Is TO-
day considered only an outside chance
who could IL he would" but who is
al unreliable as a March wind. IL is
an instance of where Il man had every
chance in the world to gain fame, for
tune and friends by the use of his tai
ented fists, but who let the chance pass
him without even giving 1t a o OF
recognition as 1t sped by.
1t isn't because Sandy ls shy on
physical gameness either, for he has
engaged In wicked fights, taken a
world Of punishment and won out In
the end. 1T Is only necessary to say
that, he defeated Joe WalcOtt when
that black battleship was fghting In
fine form.
When one looks over a list of Fergu-
sons performances In the ring 1t can
be seen at a glance that he has con-
siderable class. Besides beating Wal
colt, he won victories over Tim FOgar-
ty, Dick O'Brien twice., George Byers,
Bob Armstrong, Tom Carey, Jim Nc
Cormick, "Kiondike," Jim Calvin,
Charley Haghey and a number OF 9th
ers.
In England Sandy defeated six Of
the best heavywelghts. Besides these
victories he has boxed draws with Pad
dy Fenton, Charlie McKeever, Gus
Rubin. Jack Johnson and Joe Walcott.
Six feet three inches In height, weight
200 pounds In condition, fast as a
lightweight, clever, at defensive work,

which he won the famous Pfster tro-
ply and innumerable other races. He
sold athe Colleen to buy a bigger boat.
He is a physician and is the. most pop
ular member Of his club.
Charley Murphy, president or the
Chicago Nationals, has a temper that
resembles Vesuvius out on a Saturday
night spree. A West Indies hurricane
visited Chicago recently, but on hear
ing Charley calling down" n OF his
major league associates tucked its tail
between its legs and a lback home in
wild dismay.
Charley's "Spuds" cantplay fast ball
all right, but the big draft that sets in
when the president getsiriled will pull
the grand stand down ION them some
day.
BY the way, here's a,riddle:
Why is Chicago called the Windy
City?
The answer is, Charles W, Muir

a good right hand and a left that no
body so far has been able to block
with any degree of success, Ferguson
possesses everything that any other
heavyweight has. Some time ago he
was nicknamed 1.-The Stubborn Child"
1t Ia not a misn0mer.
Ferguson, although a brawler and a
man who is in constant trouble of N
sort or another, is q good nan In the
ring when his manager has been able
to get him to train for an event. He
and Rubin boxed an exciting fifteen
round draw, and the BOstOnian insists
he had all the better of the engage
ment. Ferguson also was one Of the
few whiteNheavies who were not afraid
to take a chance with Jack johnson,
and, although the negro always had
the better Of the bouts on points, still
the white man made 1t interesting for
the big black and was invariably there
at the finish and sighting hard.
In his last bout with johnson, which
took place at Chelsea Mass, on July
Is. 1905. the white man lost on a foul
incthe seventh round, at a time when
he was maklngait very warm for the
black. ~ = mi
Ferguson Was born at Moncton, N. B.,
twRenty-seven years ragO. He has a
tremendous reach. He recently placed
himself under the management of John
y. undergraduates to have convinced
the big Fellow that his only chance to
get along Id this game is to train prop
efly and walk a straight path when
not in the ring.

Clarke, captain and manager Of the
Pittsburg Nationals.
There is lots of luck in baseball.
One mar will have everything Il his
way for awhile. while others run in
hard luck. For a series Of games he
will succeed in getting on the bases
daily. Then it will be some days be-
fore he will as much as succeed in get
ting there at all. Take two lei one
hitting for .250 during a season and
the other 200. The former will go far
beyond the other chap for awhile, per-
haps for weeks, but the other fellow
will beat him out. That is because the
latter sticks longer. 1t is the same
way with Il ball club. Good luck will
attend it for awhile and everything Il
will do will be right. The winning
batsman has longer successful streaks
than the weaker batsman, and the Win
ming club has longer successful runs
than the weaker team"

Ancient Gun Unearthed.

While plowing on the farm of T.
L. Monson, Joe Wolschen discovered,
buried about six inches below the
surface Of the earth, an old tlint-lock
rifle of the type used by our revolu-
tionary fathers. That this ancient
musket had long lain where it was
found is clearly evidenced by the
rusted condition of the old lock, and
the further fact that every vestige
Of the wood fabric of which the
stock was made has entirely disap-
peared. The muZzle end of this
quaint gun barrel Is securely plugged
with brass-probably a precautiUn of
the owner who upon receiving a
newer and more effective rifle thus
rendered the old one useless before
throwing it away. None of our
old timers will venture an explana-
tion of how or by what people the
old tirearm was left to rust in its
bed of sand, as weapons of that
character we're long abandoned before
the days of our early pioneers. The
relic Is now the property of Miss
Daisy Frink, who prizes it very
