DON'T LIKE BULL FIGHTS.
Battling Nelson Considers Them More
Brutal Than Prize Fighting.

lightweight Champion Battling Nell
son en- route from New York to Los
Angeles to train for his fight early in
May with Aurelo Herrara, stopped
over at I'll Paso to see regular Span
ish ball fight which was pulled off at
Juarez, Mexico for the Battler's edifi-
cation.
While the contest was in progress the
Dane apparently enjoyed the excite
ment as much as the other enthus;as-
tic spectators present.
At the conclusion Of the entertain
ment Nelson and Billy Nolan, his man
ager, repaired to a restaurant, where
he was introduced to Mad MOrito, the
star matador. 1t was not long before
the two were engaged in warm con-
troverSy concerning the comparative
brutality of prize fighting and bull
fighting.
Nelson maintained that the slaught-
ering of animals with cold steel was
far more brutal than the exchange of
punches by two human beings pre-
pared for combat. and with equal
chance of winning without killing each
other
Morito declared that bull fighting
was preferable to prize fighting, on the
ground that there was less chance for
taking and crooked work to bring the
sport to disrepute.

The Reason Advanced for
Willie Hopes Action.
President Roosevelt Opens Ten
mis- Season at Washington.
Fall River Polo Players Win Another Victory
in Contest al Portland.

1t is expected that it will be settled
today whether or not Willie Hoppe will
take part in the billiard tournament to
be held next week in the Madison
Square Garden Concert hall at New
York.
Hoppe claims that the company
which is promoting the tournament
owes him considerable amount Of
money and he has demanded that he
be given a guarantee of $4,000 before he
will agree to play.
Louis Cure, Jacob Schaefer George
Slosson. George Sutton. ORC Morning
star and A. G. Cutler, the men who
are entered. are firm in their stand
that neither of them will give Hoppe
a match if he does not play in the
tournament.
II is claimed by the promoters that
their contract with the young cham
pion has nothing to do with any match
games he may arrange and that his
matches with EisnauX and Slosson
We're arranged on Hopes own re-
sponsibility. 1t is understood that the
champion claims the promoters should
have paid his expenses to Paris when
he went over to play Nignaux.
Maurice DAILY. who is probably the
best posted man in New York in all
phases of the billiard business. is of
the opinion that Hoppe is ill advised in
the stand he is taking.
"Thc promoters pay Cures expenses
To this country" says DAILY. because
the Frsnchman is put To financial loss
in leaving his business in Paris to
come here Ia make this tournament an
international affair. None of the play
erS who are here have been allowed any
bonus. | can't see why Hoppe should
be favored above those who put up
their entrance money and are ready to
play for the purse.
"Of course the champion is a big
drawing card. but he must have some
body to play with. While 1 think he
* the best player before the public to-
Gay. I also think he will have his work
cut out for him against quartet of

to Norwich.
During most of the season of 1905 he
played with Norwich in the Connecticut
League and finished third among tn
league pitchers.
Considering that he was but kid
and was up against some of the best
batters and most seasoned players lin the
business. he did remarkably well.
Josh is utterly ''rattle-pOof ana n1
amount Of yelling from the bleachers OF
by the coachers can phaze him in tht

shoots. drops and variations known to tht
game and some of his own.
He depends mostly on slow rises. drops
and breaks-a delivery which may be hit

pitchers do.
