JOB THOMAS MEETS KETCHEL
Will Battle Forty-fve Rounds at
Colma To-day.
II Required All of the Gamcness and
Skill of the Champion 10 Escape
Defeat i'm First Meeting.

or all the fights that are scheduled to-
day, that between Joe Thomas. Of San
Francisco. and Billy Ketchel. better
known as Young Ketchel. stands out as
the star attraction. These two men viii
battle at Colma whatever part of forty
FIVE rounds that is necessary to decide
which is the better.
This will be the second time that
Thomas and Ketchel have met in the
ring In their first battle. Ketchel all
but put out the champion in the tenth
round and it required all of Thomas
skill and cleverness to finally pull out
draw after twenty rounds Of fighting.
Until his fight with Thomas, KetcheI
was an unknown quantity in the puglistic
world Then Thomas came to his town.
and contracted with the managers Of the
local clubs to box twenty rounds with
any man that could be secured to fight
him at the welter-Weight limit The club
officials finally picked out Ketchel. and
although it looked like a slaughter to
pit him against the champion. the young
ster announced his willingness to fight
Thomas, and went on.
During the first nine rounds Thomas
had things all his own way and Ketchel
was hammered all over the ring. When
the bell sounded for the tenth round
Ketchel came up strong and after a few
seconds Of fighting he landed a hook to
Thomas jaw that foored the champion.
Thomas stayed down for the count Of
nine, and when he arose he began to
stall" to last the round out Ketchel
was TOO anxious to finish his man, and
kept running into clinches This helped
Thomas, and for seven rounds he fought
on the defensive until he recovered from
the effects of the punch. In the last
three rounds he made Ketchel look like
novice, and a draw was the result
The outcome of this battle is the cause
of a difference If opinion between fight
experts as to the winner of to-day's
contest Some declare that ketchel has
improved, and this time will finish the
champion. instead OF letting his clever
ness save him from a Knockout. Others
are of the opinion that if Thomas can
hold Ketchel off and get a draw after
being almost knocked out, he will be able
to more than hold his own when he en-
tiers the ring fresh and with knowledge
Of his opponents ability. They declare
that Joe was caught mapping in the first
fight and will profit by his lesson. But
you never can tell.

EGAN MAY GO TO DES MONIES.
RumOr that TOvne May Succeed Him

Burlington, Iowa, Sept. An I'M
substantiated rumor is being freely dis

effect that E. F. Egan. manager Of the
Burlington team, viii next season be
made manager OF the Des Moines West
ern League team, and that Babe"
Towne. now holding down first base
for Burlington, viii take over the local
management. Manager Egan is out of

ject
The fact that Egan is closely asso-

the rumor.

AUTO SIGNS DEFECTIVE.
Judge Says Caution Boards Do Not
Indicate Speed Limit.

Pennsburg, Pa, Sept. 1.-Constable John
Biting. of Red Hill. arrested four auto
mobflists on a charge of exceeding the
speed limits in that town, these being
the first arrests Of that kind in the up.
per PerkiOmen Valley.
At the hearing before Justice J. P.
Kline. the accused men declared they
thought they were in a township. and
therefore had a right to run twenty
miles an hour, as the caution boards
along the street read simply Run auto
mobiles according to law" and did not
indicate to strangers that Red Hill was
a borough, where the limit is ten miles.
Justice Kline admitted that the cautions
were defective, and furthermore. as the
constable had not timed the autoists, the
Justice discharged them.
