with could always rely. Hard Luck
joe was another name that the fans
attached to him, for he had the faculty
of getting hurt about as frequently as
vas possible; but he was game to the
core and often continued in the game
under conditions hat would have driv-
en- almost any other man to the hos
pital. Sugden did not begin playing
professional baseball until after he
was 81, some five or six years later
than he average player. But his
splendid headwork and his ability soon
made him a valuable man and he has
been in the big leagues for nearly a
dozen years. When Comiskey came to
Chicago in 1900, Joe was with the st.
Paul team, moved here, and played at
the south side park for a couple of
seasons. Then he was traded to Nc
Aleer in st. Louis, where he has been
ever since. Mac" has depended on
Joe as his steady worker lei since he
look hold of the management of the
Browns, for aside from Sugden the
Browns have been weakest behind the
bat. With the passing of Sugden to the
minors practically the last of that old
guard who learned to bunt by switch
ing the bat and dropping the ball with
the handle, will have gone from the
big leagues. When the bunt was first
permitted that manner of turning the
trick was largely utilized, because it
was believed the handle of the bat
dropped tile ball deader than the large
end. Tins has changed this, however,
and with few exceptions the bat has
never been switched. Joe was one of
the very lust. In st. Louis and here in
Chicago Sugden was known as a
pinch hitter and nearly every pitch
err in, the American league feared him
when he was sent to bat at a crisis.
Though lever a heavy batter on the
season, Sugden could come nearer than
almost any other player in the Ameri-
can league to cracking out a safe hit
when it was needed most. st. Louis
fans knew this and he was a great
favorite at Sportsman's park, where he
will be sadly missed this season.

PHILADELPHIA. March Is. - Be-

300. The men fought under straight
Marquis of Queensbery r%ules-to punch
away until ordered to break by the
referee.
Among the leading New Workers. seat
ed close to the ring was Harry Payne
John A. Drake occupied seats only a
few feet away
Both men were trained to the hour
and were as ft as their careful train
ers could possibly make them. For
mer pugilistic celebrities were seated
about the ring-Tom Sharkey, Jack
McAuliffe, Brooklyn Jimmy" Carroll,
George Considine, John Considine. Tom
O'Rourke, Paddy Roche and Mark
Mayer.
The men were to receive 10 per cent
of the receipts, of which 45 per cent
was TO go to Nelson, win or lose. There
was considerable betting on the bout,
with Nelson a slight favorite.
First Round-Nelson missed a left
and both clinched, and it was twenty
seconds before they separated. The
crowd Kissed, and Nelson led with left
to head. They again clinched, and the
referee warned McGovern for holding.
There was another clinch, and Me-
Govern sent a hard left to the head.
They were clinched at the bell and as
they went to their corners there were
nothing but Kisses.
The fourth round was the first round
in which there was any real fighting.
McGovern swung wild with his right,
but drove d left to the wind. Nelson
sent Il left to the face, and then they
clinched and wrestled across the ring.
Nelson pounded McGovern's kidneys
in the clinch. Nelson sent a light left
to the face. and McGovern missed a
swing for the jaw. Nelson was grow
ing stronger. while McGovern seemed
to be weakening. Nelson sen a hard
left and right TO the jaw, and Meow
ern was weak as he went to his corner.
Fifth Round-McGovern sent a left
to the head, and Nelson cOuntered with
{; left to the wind. Nelson sent Il light
left to the stomach. McGOvern rushed
10 Il clinch and refused to break when
ordered by the referee. McGovern sent
three lefts to the face. but the blows
did not have any appreciable effect on
Nelson. When they broke Nelson drove
a terrific right TO McGovern's jaw.
which made the Brooklyn boy wabbly.
They clinched, and as they broke away
the bell rang.
Sixth Round-NelSon missed a right
swing and then rushed to a clinch.
McGovern missed Il right for the wind
and then sent Il right uppercut to the
wind. Nelson sent a light left to the
face and then missed Il terrific right
for McGovern'S chin. Nelson drove
McGoyern into Il neutral corner and
landed two hard blows on the wind.
McGovern was almost out when the
gong sounded. 1t was Nelson's fight.
1t is doubtful if McGovern could
have stood the gruelinS for another
round. There was some rough work in
the early rounds by the Dane. He fire.
quently used his right elbow and bore
in on McGovern repeatedly with his
head. Nelson deserved the decision.
but as no decisions are rendered when
both men are on their feet the fight
was classed as Il draw. Neither man
was knocked down during the fight.
but McGovern slipped to the floor in
the fifth round while trying to escape
from the Dane.

POWER PLANT BURNS
San Francisco Gas and Electric
Plant Is Destroyed.
Fire Starts in New Addition to Plant
Crude Oil and Gasoline Tanks Ex-
plode Brick Walls Prevent Spread
of Fire.

san FRANCISCO, Feb. 22-About /
o'clock this morning fire broke out i'll
the central station OF the San Fran
cisco Gas 4 Electric Company, located
on Joseph street, between Third and
Fourth. The blaze started in a new
addition to the building and new dyna-
mos were being installed when the fire
started. The building contained num-
Der of crude oil and gasoline tanks and
explosion after explosion followed, but
fortunately within heavy brick walls
and none of the firemen was hurt. The
new section of the building was gutted
completely. The building was the
source of electric light and power for
the central portion of the city and all
the downtown streets and buildings are
in darkness, save where gas fixtures are
in working position. The fire also shut
of all downtown telephone service and
played havoc with the telegraph service
of the Western Union and Postal Com.
panies. Many wires running out of
the city were rendered useless. 1t is
impossible to make an approximate of
the loss at present, but the damage will
be heavy, the burned buildings having
been filed with the latest electrical ma
ehinery. 1t is expected that great in
convenience viii be felt in the city to-
day owing to the destruction of the
power plant and wires. Lower streets
are served by auxiliary supply plants.

There i little prospect of Arizona
and New Mexico becoming a state Joint.
ly, at this session of Congress. Already
the feeling Of the Senate against bind.
ing them together in statehood is
strong, a. it is being made clear to the
legislators Of the upper branch that
Arizona bitterly opposes such a course,
and will fight it to the last ditch.
Arizona had far rather remain a terri,
tory for some time to come. than be
yoked with her sister, and the strong
delegation working here has satisfied
the Senate of that fact. No matter
what is the sentiment from other quar-
ters, the Senate will not force state
hood upon Arizona under such circum.
stances.
Oregon's delegation leans toward this
view strongly. Senator Fulton has ex-
pressed himself repeatedly to the
steering committee, and Senator Gearin
is also understood to be against forcefuI
jOinture. as the divorce court for states
is slower than the mills of the gods.
