Meeting OF CAPITAL
CITY LEAGUE

The managers of the Capital City League
will hold meeting at the rooms Of the Alloy
sius Club on Tuesday evening at o'clock
for the purpose of discussing plans for the
coming season. Several applications are on
file for places in the league. notable among
them being the strong team from the gov
eminent printing office and the team of the
Southern railway.
The government printing Office in former
years had league made up Of teams
among the men in the Office, and for a
while did exceedingly well. This year, how
ever, they will concentrate their efforts in
the organizing of one team, and as there
is plenty of good material in the Office they
should be capable of turning out team
fully able to take care of itself In the Capt.
tai City League.
The railroad boys are a pretty husky
bunch and last season gave a very cred
liable account of themselves In the Capt.
tai City League they will find teams that

eight men sculing in a shell will give the
second varsity a great advantage as pace
maker for the first eight with sweeps.
The quality of the men l am working
with is generally good, though 1t seems as
if the eligibility rules will hit the rowing
squad hardest. Heinrich. No. in last
years varsity crew, and Won Saltza, new
man, who had given promise of becom-
ing varsity oar, will probably have to
drop out on this account. Some of the
best men now at work are Capt. Boyle,
Braun, Mackenzie and Roy of last year s
varsity eight, and Cerussi, Gillies and
Robinson of the 90 freshman crew; but
fear that even with these experienced men
it will be hard to prepare crews to row
against Harvard on May IL. Annapolis on
May IL and IN the intercollegiate regatta
in June.

BRlTT-GANS FIGHT
PROBABLY OFF

SAN FRANCISCO, February ia tele-
gram received from Riley, the Tonopah
promoter, last night, in all probability
sounded the death knell of the Britt-Gans
match so far as Nevada is concerned. 1t
was addressed to Coffroth and Selig, man
ayers of Britt and Cans respectively, and
was in answer to a message sent to Riley
suggesting that he cover the forfeits at
present held by the Examiner in accord
ance with the articles Of agreement. The
Riley wire is of the "hifalutin'' kind. He
says he will post "any part of one hum
bred thousand dollars with a bank in
Tonopah, providing Coffroth and Selig do
the same. He makes the astonishing adj
mission that he is Indifferent to public
opinion and then says "any time you want
to do a cash business with me. come on
with your money and I'll cover it,
To a man like Cofforth. who knows all
about match making and fight handling, the
dispatch had an ominous ring. For that
matter the greatest tyro in sporting mat
tiers knows that the depositing OF money In
bank does not place 1t in jeopardy. It would
hardly be in keeping with 1.-The ethics Of
banking to pay a deposttor's money over to
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1907-02-15

somebody else on the plea that the deposit
tor had forfeited it by failing to make good
on sporting contract.
AS all the world knows, Riley originally
arranged to hold the Britt-Gans fight on
March 16 or IS. He gave it out that it was
mis- purpose to have a regular fistic fight
and they and he made offers to all the pu-
gilists in sight, from Jim Jeffries to frankie
Neil.
When Selig and Coffroth received Riley's
message last night they looked extremely
GUM. They finally agreed that the case
required firm treatment and sent separate
kilograms to Riley. Coffroth told the Tono-
pah match maker that Britt had lived up
to the articles of agreement even to the
extent Of posting his forfeit, and that it
remained for Riley to do the same, IL he in
tended to handle the contest. Seligs mes
sage, which was on behalf of Cans, was In
a similar strain.

CHICAGO. February 15.-The real reason
for Mike Donlin's stubbornness in agreeing
to play for the Giants leaked out last night.
Mike is now here. having arrived yesterday

semi professional base ball park, for the
purpose not only of buying the park but
also of taking the team under his wing and

local league with which Jimmy Callahan is
connected, and produced 1900 cold hard
dollars for Jimmy last year. Donlins BUSH

HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS
PLAY BASKET BALL

The girl basket ball teams of Western
and Central high schools gave a clever ex-
hibition of the popular game at the for
mer's gymnasium yesterday afternoon, the
Red and White team winning by the score
of 81 to II. The contest was one of the
fastest seen in the gym for many a day.
and was witnessed by many followers of
both quints.
Miss Lfngley, the clever goal-thrower for
Western, easily carried off the honors for
individual work, she having thrown eleven
goals, most of which were of the difficult
order. The playing of Miss Moffitt of the
winning aggregation was also good Cen
trails star player was Miss Cunningham,
who shot four spectacular goals.

NATIONAL GUARD LOST
TO JERSEY TEAM

In flercely contested game of basket
ball last night at Newark, N. j., the Ma
tional Guard quint of this city went down
to defeat at the hands of the Entire Nous
Club of Harrison, N. j., the score being
81 to 4S. The capital boys were leading
at the end of the first round, owing to
the fact that both teams were using A. A.
U. rules and they being more familiar with
them than their New Jersey opponents. In
the last 90 the old National League rules
were applied. and 1t was Just the reverse,
the winners having them down pat and the
boys from this city having very seldom
used them before. A prize was awarded to
the player scoring the most goals which
was captured by Fred Rice Of the Guards,
he having been successful In twenty-one.
