Burns and Squives Habe
 Weber Seen Each Other
BY w. w. N AUCTION.

Harbin Springs, Cal. June 24.-In the history of modern pugilism 1t is something rare for a pair of fighters to be denied the satisfaction of seeing each other in the flesh until they enter the ring. There was a case of that kind when Jack Demp- sey and Fitsimmons boxed at New Or leans and it looks now as though similar experience awaits Tommy Burns and Bill Squires of Australia.
 Articles for the Burns-Squires match were drawn up at Los Angeles, the Au- stralian being represented by his mana ger. Barney Reynolds. When Burns reached San Francisco he selected train ing quarters a days journey from where Squires is camped. All the details of the worlds championship have been perfected and there being nothing for the principals to discuss 1t is practically certain that neither will gain glimpse of the other until they stand together on the roped platform at Colma on the afternoon of the Fourth of July
 It is quite probable, however, that Squires and Burns would recognize each other if they met by accident tomorrow. When Dempsey saw Fitzsimmons for the first time standing on the ringside weigh ing machine at New Orleans he rolled up his eyes in astonishment. He had no idea that the arrival from the antipodes was so rangy and broad -shouldered.
 In these days fighters are photographed more extensively and we have also nov ing pictures. Queensberry rivals are en- abled 10 study one another's lines, and for that matter see each other fighting past battles in the form on shadows.
 If there is anything in seeing the pie ture of rival in real action thrown upon a screen Squires has an advantages over Burns. The moving photographs of the

| first o Brien- Burns contest at Los Angeles were exhibited in Australia and Squires was among the spectators Squires was thereby permitted to gain some knowledge of the way Burns fights.
 It may be that Tommy has viewed the picture of Squires sparring before the rapid-action camera at San Rafael. but that is poor recompense. What Squires saw was a reproduction of a genuine en- counter. What Tommy saw, if he saw at all, was merely sham fight
 Tommy admits that it is quite a con- tract training for a man he has never seen either in the ring or out of it. But so as not to be caught mapping he is preparing for everything that may possi- bly, crop up during fighting hours on the fateful Fourth.
 The articles call for forty-five rounds. and if through the exigencies of Queens berry warfare forty-five rounds should be required Burns believes he will have vim and sprightlness sufficient to carry him through the long summer afternoon.
 If it is to be a short bruising engage ment-a clash of strength and test of speed and hitting powers-he feels he will be able to hold his own against the mys- terious man from abroad.
 Anyhow, not one of the little details of training which have bearing upon long fights and short fights, smashing fights and clever fghtss is being overlooked.
 Ask Burns if he thinks he is faster or cleverer than his prospective opponent and he will tell you frankly he doesn't know, and has no means of learning short of getting into the ring with Squires. Ask him if he thinks his personal strength is equal or superior to that of the antlpodean and he will tell you that he believes he Is at least as strong as thes "Southern Cross Champion" "Squires may weigh few pounds more than do and he may not, but l have vet to find the man within ten pounds of my weight who is stronger than l am.

 1t so happened that Wilhelm had read in Memphis paper where this pun was originally cracked by Count Castro, and when he called Demonts attention to the fact that he had inadvertently plagiarized. there followed a rough house, to quell which required the assistance of several spectators.

 The end comes after a black-face mono logue put on by MT. Brode, who made a hit while establishing the proof that Graveyard Dust is Graveyard Dust. That's All" The players are in a good humor, and are ready to play ball. They realize that they have been up against it. but realize. too, that they are able to deliver the goods. Going up' Is their watch word, and that Montgomery will be the first vic- tim, goes without saying. Watch the Barons cop the double-header this afternoon.
