AS 1t might have been written in
B. c.:
"On the eve of the great battle
between the Roman Coliseums and the
Carthaginian Pharaohs, Coach Ram
eses expressed himself as we'll pleas
ed with the outlook.
Finishing touches were put on the
work OF the Pharaoh squad last even
ing with a light signal practice. No
heavy work was INDUCED in for fear
OF Gripping some Of the men for to-
days battle.
1.-THE Romans arrived in the city
last evening in their galley, and are
resting today after the rather ardu-
GUS trip. They will go into the game
today with the determination to win,
and win by big score.

Ing. Man for man they outweigh us,
but l believe our line can hold. Au-
gustus Is the man we have most to
fear. If his linemen can Withstand
his attacks, we can count on our great
backfield to do the business
1.-THE betting around the hotels last
evening was at even money. There
Is plenty Of Roman money in sight,
but the Carthaginians are holding of

The newspaper fight between Cans
and Nelson has the Nevada affair fad
ed to q gentle whisper.
Nelson started it with a plant that
he had been robbed of the decision by
tho referee.
Cans came back with the state
ment, backed up by the referee, that
1t was a plain case of foul on Nelson's
part.
Nelson wanted another battle.
Cans said he could have It IL he
came to terms
Nelson declared he was still cham
pion and wanted to dictate terms.
Cans came back with a body blow
Offering to meet Nelson and give so
per cent Of the gate receipts to char
ity.
Nelson went him one better and
offered to fight and give all the gate
receipts to charity.
It's now up to Cans to offer to meet
Nelson with one hand tied, and give
all the receipts and a $4,000 side bet
to home for prize fighters who have
lost their voice.

Last week was one of the heaviest
that the pugilistic game has expert
enced In many day. Not only were
there three bouts of more than ordi-
nary interest-one a championship
ahair-but there was talk of other
matches. which, II made. will give to
the pugilistic fans something to think
and study over.
or course, the most important to
followers Of the game, at least To-
cally. Is the fact that Nolan's actions
in attempting to get Battling Nelson
and Joe Cans together during the past
week was the featupre Of the week.
Next in line Of local interest is the
Cain and Cooney Kelly fight, which
takes place in Belleville. ILL.,, next
Sunday.
Virginia City Is evidently Jealous
of the notoriety which came to Cold
field upon the successful staging of
the Gans-Nelson fight and wants a
little piece OF the advertising itself.
Consequently one Mike Brennan, for
merly Of Chicago. a bookmaker, has
onered Kid Herman five different pro-
positions, and Herman has accented
three OF them.
A purse of $4,000 was offered Her.
man to meet either Nelson, Cans or
Britt, and the Kid snapped up the
offer. hook. line and sinker.
The other was bid of $4,000 for
meeting with either Young Corbett or
Terry McGovern. and this the Kid
turned down.
mot enough money" quoth Nate
Lewis, the Kids manager, and SO the
matter stands.
Nothing has been heard yet from
the other parties. but Herman stands
ready to meet Britt. Nelson or Cans,
or all three.
There is just one condition that
Herman makes, and it will probably
be satisfactory to all parties. That is
that the weight be 1873 ringside. Her.
man has been waiting for a chance
Of this kind for long time, and now
he is lying awake nights wondering If
his dream of coin and glory is really
coming true.
Any one of these matches, II made,
will attract world of attention from
the fans all over the country, for next
to the heavyweight class the light
weights carry the banner of interest.
The high caliber of the boys makes
any bout between them either a fight
for the championship or so close to It
that 1t is almost the same thing
Jack O'Brien showed a couple of
dubs the difference between a real
fighter and mutt when he knocked
out Fred Cooley and Jim Tremble in
the same ring at Los Angeles the
other night, and took only IL rounds
for the two men.
Indeed, 1t is certain that If he wish
ed he could have turned the trick in
six, for he simply toyed with Tremble
and allowed him to stay so long only
to give the crowd run for it's money.
On Cooley he wasted no time, but
took ample revenge for the abuse he
has suffered at the hands of the Chi
cago fighter. He pasted big Fred all
over the ring. and, after beating him
numerically, slowed him away with
dream tablet in the third round.

Sporting Spiel.

There isn't genuine sportsman
In the country who does not deplore
the increasing tendency on the part
OF pot hunters to go into the woods a
week or ten days, or two weeks, be-
fore the opening Of the big game sea-
son.
The story they always tell is that
they are going to "get their camps
ready" but such fiimsy pretext is
getting frayed out at the edges
Twenty-four hours is ample time for
any woodsman to get permanent
camp in readiness. and the real rea-
son, Of course. is to get little shoot
ing before the deer become wary.
The deer have a small enough
chance az 1t is. and they are rapidly
being driven farther and farther back
into the wilderness, and becoming
scarcer and scarcer year by year.
A good sportsman is the man who
recognizes the necessity and value of
the game laws. and obeys them, no
matter how easy 1t may be to dodge
their provisions.
The trouble about the infringement
of the game laws is that It grows by
leaps and bounds. Those who would
not break them. IL left to themselves,
find 1t almost necessity. in order to
get shot at deer, to go into the
woods early. BY the time the sea-
son opens they become so wild that
It is impossible to get within hailing
distance Of them.

As to who gave the orders it is signifi-
cant that no change was made in the
Independent platform IRON the begin

relating to state taxation OF corpora

municipal suffrage Tor women and con-
demning the activity OF oftice-holders
in politics, but these were dropped out
after the conference. II has been
stated that the Democrats included
planks favoring weekly payment OF
wages by corporations and the passage
OF an employers liability law, both Of
which Mr. Clement had previously
gone on record against, but we have
not seen the printed text OF these
planks anywhere.

Congress finally succumbed to the
Standard Oil company and the beef
trust. In the closing hours OF the
session the Senate had to recede from
its position on the rate bill and the
meat inspection measure. The pro-
vision making oil pipe lines common
carriers and subject to rate regulation
was stricken out, so the Standard will
90 on uniettered, as before. The
expense OF inspecting the packers
products is saddled onto the govern
ment-s3,000,00O a year-instead Of
being borne by the packers. 1t is
peculiar that on these questions the
conservative Senate took the radical
view, while the interests OF the
monopolies were defended by the
popular body, the House. There
were doubtless some proper reasons
for the attitude taken by the House,
but the country is not satisfied, and
only acquiesces because the bills
as finally passed promise great benefit,
which might have been altogether
lost, had not the Senate yielded on
these points.
