and was back in his quarters in time
to do his regular afternoon work.
An eastern manager took a boxer
over to Britt's Quarters on Friday and
asked the Californian to put on the
gloves with him. The manager spoke
of the affair as little friendly bout.
but when the two boxers were stripped
expected to give Britt a good workout.
Britt gathered from his remarks that
the visitor expected to make little
reputation out of the showing he would
make. Britt took the precaution to
weigh him and found he tipped th
beam at 161 pounds. They boxed quiet
ly for a time and then the visitor made
a wild swing at Britt. The latter took
the blow on his shoulder and no dam
age was DONE The visitor tried again
later and Britt landed one of his
famous left hooks to the body. This
settled the aspirations of the visitor,
as he dropped to the floor and was un-
able to continue.
Willie Britt has arranged for Charley
Reilly, the clever four round boxer. to
go over to San Rafael a couple of days
this week to box with Jimmy. The
latter wants the fast work he knows
he will get with boy like Reilly. Tiv
Kreling will take up the rough work
which Britt thinks will help him in
standing off the rushes of Nelson.
Nelson will adhere to his decision
not to put on the gloves again until
Tuesday. He expects to take an auto
mobile trip in the country today, as he
feels he is entitled to a little recrea-
tion after the hard work he has put
in during the past two weeks

There will be no question of game
ness when Nelson and Britt enter the
ring. as no gamer boxers ever lived
than this pair of lightweights. Each,
however, is figuring thai the other Is
not as formidable as upon the occa-
sion of their memorable meeting at
Colma in September, 1905. 1t Is pos
sible that each will be surprised at the
form shown by the other, as from out
ward appearances the strength of
neither has been impaired. Nelson has
felt that he learned the full measure
of Britt's powers at their last meeting
and that he will be able to offset any,
thing the Californian has to offer.
Britt has two strings to his bow. In
the first place he claims that he studied
Nelson in their two fights and expresses
the belief that he has learned the weak
spots of the Dane and that he will be
able to avail of them to his own ad-
vantage. In addition to this he feels
that the desperate battle in which the
Dane figured with Cans reduced his ef-
fectiveness in a slight degree.
AS each man expects to develop
weak spot in his opponent, he must
figure to set a fast pace to bring 1T
out To dawdle along would mean that
the fight probably would go the full
90 rounds. something which neither of
them wants Each would prefer a de-
cisive outcome rather than trust to
the decision of the official arbiter.
After the fight at Colma Britt made
a deep study of the pictures taken at
the time and he saw many things
which made him anxious for return
match in which to apply the new ideas
he had gained as to the most effective
manner in which to meet the Dane.
Britt thinks he had victory well within
his grasp in the third round, but the
minute interval of rest came just at a
time when Nelson seemed on the verge
of collapse.
The pictures how that Britt feinted
at Nelson and the latter stepped TO
one side to avoid the blow. He was not
entirely out of range and Britt popped

"PARsON" DAVIES HERE
ON 4 PLEASURE TRIP

Charles G. (Parson) Davies, the IA
nous fight manager and sportsman, ar
rived here yesterday and is at the ST.
Francis hotel. Although he came west
in quest of health, Davies is looking
forward with great interest to the
Britt Nelson and the Squires-Burns
fights on July and 4. He said he had
seen the motion pictures at the Or
pheum of Squires in his training stunts
and that he was greatly impressed with
the work of the Australian
In speaking of the Britt-Nelsol
match the Parson said Nelson won
the last fight and, understand. he is
now in as good condition as he was
at that time. Britt. so far as 1 know,
is in good condition. but 1 have not
heard that he has improved any. Re-
garding Joe Rogers. the New York
giant boxer, who is now under the
management of Tom O'Rourke, 1 have
only to say that in appearance he is
one of the greatest men that we have
in this country. He is 27 years old. and
is a man who has never dissipated IN
any way.
When O'Rourke first took him up he
weighed $50 pounds, and now he has
reduced himself to 245 pounds and is in
perfect condition. His chest measure
ment is 55 inches. his waist is AZ:
height. s feet 2 inches. and his neck
measurement 1914 inches. What his fu-
ture will be depends largely upon his
grit. do not know whether his man

over right to the jaw. Nelson went
to his knees and Britt saw chance of
winning, but the end of the round was
able to hold out until the respite came.
Britt thinks that little more luck in
landing his blow earlier in the round
would have ended proceedings then and
there.
Britt claims also that the pictures
show that In the memorable fourteenth
round, which has been pronounced one
of the greatest ever fought in the ring,
he outpointed Nelson. Britt has always
claimed that the blow which ended the
fight in favor of Nelson was a chance
one and it dazed him so that he fell
was rushed back against the ropes SO
hard that he bounded out and was
caught off his guard by the unexpected
action.
Nelson merely smiles when told of
the lines upon which Britt is figuring
there is no such thing as chance blow,
as he is always trying and Is Likely
to land at any time. All the clever men
of the lightweight division have had
try at him and Cans is the only one
who has a victory over him to his
credit 1t took him AZ rounds and then
he was given the decision on foul
and was not able to stop the fighting
Dane.
The training quarters of Britt at
Shannon's villa, near San Rafael, will
be the mecca today of a great crowd of
men interested in the sport of the ring.
Britt and Joe Thomas will box five
rounds. and in addition the Californian
will go through his regular gymnasium
work. Owing to the fact that Britt had
an engagement with a photographer in
this city yesterday afternoon he and
Joe Thomas did not take their proposed
jaunt to Whites hill. Instead they went
over the regular eight mile trip which
marks the usual road work of the box
ers and were back home for an early
luncheon. Britt then came to the city

better buy fifteen cent can Of Tomatoes, divide

The same holds true on other Canned Goods. About

Goods than have been sold in this town-in fact
some Of the other drummers thought that we were
crazy when we told them that had placed an order
for a carload Of Lawson Pink Canned Goods. But we
think that nothing good for the people of Barre.
These goods bought before the rise and give you
the benefit Of the purchase, that they win you

hangs out the sccond-story window Of
Perry Belmonts house AT $50 Fifth ave-
nue.. It announces that the property is
for sale for business purposes. Mr.. Bel
mont sailed for Europe about week
ago and there is little IN the house now
that shows that it was once inhabited.
Workmen are taking out all the interior
fittings. and in a day or so the house will
be entirely dismantIed The furniture
was removed the early part of last week.
The grounds belong to Columbia College.
Mr. Belmont owns the Ieasehold.
A firm Of Fifth avenue real estate deal
ers offer the leasehold for sale. and il is
not at all unlikely that within a short
time another business building will be
erected in the block. which now contains
three. The Belmont house is not i'm the
restricted district, but it is only year or
so since the first business house made its
appearance iu the block Immediately
across the street from the Belmont house
is the residence OF Miss Helen Gould
Others in the block who own property
are Mrs Robert GOelet. j. b. sIaggin.
Frederick Roosevelt, and W. C. Beach.
So far there has been no mercantile in
trusion on the east side of the avenue
between Forty-seventh street and Forty
eighth street but it is not at all unlikely
that the advent of trade on the west side
of the avenue will drive the old residents
to other parts of the city.
