WRESTLING
GREAT WAS
 THIS MATCH
Cotch and Farmer Burns Go Some The Young Turk is a
 Wonder.

Birmingham, Ala, Feb 13.-Th!r- ty-five hundred people saw Frank Gotch take two out of three falls from Farmer" Burns the other night in a grueling contest lasting 58 minutes for the three falls. Burns was game, but could not stand the gaff of Gotch's famous toe hold.
 Gotch gained the first hold in 31 minutes, using the toe hold and changing to the English bar lock. The first few minutes on the mat were devoted to foot work in a tacti. cal endeavor of each one to let the other fellow start something. Burns was almost pinned to the mat after about twenty minutes when Gotch secured the inevitable toe hold, changing to a half-Nelson, which Burns broke.
 Considerable excitement was man. ifested when Burns dropped Gotch off the platform. Gotch fell on his head, but the big fellow came up smiling.
 Farmer" attempted to use the toe hold, but gave it up as a bad job. After the fall rest of ten minutes was given the wrestlers. The second fall was gained by Burns in the quick time of six min utes. He surprised Gotch with the old arm lock and side roll hold and Gotch was thrown before he had any idea of what was happening to him.
 After another intermission the two champions came up to the scratch for the third. and final session.
 This was the most strenuous round of the match, as both men showed unfaltering determination to do CT die.
 The Farmer" was heavily pun ished by the big chap and less 'eso- lute man would have gone under in half the time Burns was being ham, mered around the mat.
 This fall was secured in 21 nin- utes by Gotch. The inevitable toe hold was the means employed and as usual was effective. It was either go uo"h ou IhC mat UT d UTOhcu leg TOT Burns. He stood the strain for . long time, but there was no chance to get away from it.
 Burns was outclassed at all times as was we'll known to all who were acquainted with the ability of the two men. Burns age and inferior weight initiated against him to a greater extent than anything else.
 Atlanta and Knoxville are both trying to get Burns and Gotch to go on for a match, but 1t has not been decided what they would do about it.
 The second preliminary was one fall between Bob Crawford and Young Turk of Waterbury, Conn, lasting 19 minutes. This affair was of more than ordinary preliminary interest. The Turk secured the de- cision over his heavier opponent.

THE PUGILlSTS
GAME THAT
 NEVER DIES
Man Who Was Never Beaten to Be Tested-Mellody and Thomas
 to Meet.

Bloomington, III, Feb 13.--Wil- liam Papke, the Illinois Thunder bolt" whose unbroken record of vic- tories is attracting much attention in the pugilistic world, may meet an eastern man soon.
 Maurice L. Collins, manager of Mike Donovan of Rochester, N. Y., has challenged Papke, and a bout may be arranged for Marcn or April. Papke has two fights on for this month, and may meet Fitzpatrick of Chicago or Rhodes of Kansas City in March. The former lost the decision to Papke when they met in Peoria recently, but wants to meet him again.
 It is likely that a bout will be ar ranged with Rhodes some time this spring. Donovan, the latest candi- date, is we'll known welter-weight boxer who has met and defeated many good men. He claims 127 bat ties without knoc' out. He has met and defeated such men as Joe Walcott, Young Peter. Jackson, Joe Thomas and others. Donovan wishes to meet Papke at 14S to 150 pounds. The former is Papke's usual weight. He has a brilliant future, but ne needs bit of coaching from exper- fenced men of the ring. He is verit- able whirlwind, and appears to be impervious to punishment. His back CTS cannot be made to believe that he can be downed by any man of his weight, but he has yet to meet high class, experienced men, and those who have watched his exhibition think that he would profit by the ad- vice of a veteran instructor.

BURNS IN NEW YORK.

New York, Feb 13.--Tommy Burns reached Broadway yesterday, and un- der the chaperonage of Tom O Rourke he met all of our set. The husky Ca- nadian fighter, who has fought his way to about the top rung of the heavyweight ladder. is at present contemplating match with Bill Squires. the Australian heavy.
 There has been whole lot of mys- tery surrounding Squires ever since the first announcement that he was going to come over here and send Jeff to the alfalfa farm for all time. It may be that Burns will land him for a match. and if he does not it will not be for lack of trying.
 Unless Squires has a whole lot more class than Jack Cox, the other Australian who came across recent ly. le had better stay just where he is and be content to busy himself with the home crop.

WE EAT THEM
 UP LAST NIGHT Bridgeport Succumbed to Our Clever Polists New Britain
 Beat Hartford.

Dicky Fierce did not materialize last night with the rest of the Bridge port bunch and he will be much dis appointed this morning in two ways. First because he was not in the bunch of beauties that had their pie lures "tooken'' while the fans shout ed all manner of jibes at the photo artist and secondly hecause his com rades were driven into the cage of defeat by the team of real, list. polo players that honor tlils c.ty with their presence. The lO,al fans wrrn some what disappointed I,ariinln Intk. did not come her to exhibit his prowess and they were rc.hes scared of the result of the game, because Tommy Holderness was not in the lineup. Tommy has gone to his hone to at tend the enreral of a relative and last night Johnny Griffin took his place. Lid the local poloist show uL well? We'll we rather guess. He played the game as he did years ago and his passing and breaking up of combi- nations was just as spectacular. He took advantage of every opportunity and has the credit of making two of the goals for his side.
 The first period was fast and rough with both teams fighting like troopers. Waterbury seemed to be the slower of the two, but Sutton was there with his pads on. that had been passed upon by Architect Rorty and declared within the bounds of reason and the Bridgeport bunch couldn't get the leather behind him. Waterbury could do nothing with Mitchell either and the battle went on to the end with neither side scoring. Waterbury woke up in the second period and they went after the game red hot. Bridgeport caused them to awaken for Duggan scored the first goal of the night and then the locals stepped some and when that period ended. we were four to their two. The third period was rapid fire one and each side succeeded in getting just one goal. When the bell rang for the fin ish the two teams were pretty well winded. The lineup and summary:

HACKENSCHMIDT.GOTCH.

London, Feb 13.-Articles of agrec- ment for a match between Hacken- schmidt and Gotch have just reached London for Hackenschmidt's sigma ture. Mr Scoville, president of the Missouri Athletic club, has been in correspondence with Mir Cochrane, Hackenschmidt's manager. who has accepted a proposal for a match at Kansas City in May for a purse of S1O.OOO. of which the winner will take % per cent, and the championship of the world. Cochrane stipulated that the club should post 5000 fin Eng land. and that side bet of not less than S1.O0O be posted in New York. Scoville agreed, but he wishes to know the name of the referee.

silk" O'Loughlin was assigned to umpire a game between the West Point and Annapolis teams three years ago. He relates a funny story concerning an experience with the captain of the navy team.
 The score was tie with two men on the bases when the batter hit A ball to the shortstop. He threw to the third baseman. The runner lost his head and made a long slide into the bag The crowd yelled, but silk" waved the runner out.
 The captain of the team rushed to- ward "Silk" and said: Why was he out: he didn't touch him?" "SiIk" came right back with. 'Is it neces- sary to touch a runner on a force play in this league. admiral" giving him a regular army salute at the same time The captain saluted and walked back to the bench.

POLO WHITES.

You can't get by us, Bridgeport. Johnny Griffin was the real thing
 Loxson did some very clever jug. gling.
 Murray connected better with the ball than he has on any other oc- casion.
 Frank Sutton is being beseiged with letters from the Beaver Falls management to go back to the Inter- state league. They offer him almost any old price if he will return as they have won but one game since Frank left there.
 Again we say it, that Bridgeport without Dicky Pierce can never trim Waterbury.
 Carl Chapin of the American has been appointed the official scorer for Waterbury to succeed Mir Clark of the Republican who is planning to leave this city for the wild and woody west.
 We cannot afford to lose our goal tender and Frank had better think a couple of times before he goes back to Beaver Falls. That league will wind up three weeks before the Con- necticut games are ended.
 Hartford though playing in her own bandbox was pie for New Brit ain last night and another chance escaped us.
 John Allen is going to play goal for the new Wallingford team and if all the other players are of the same calibre the borough team will have to be reckoned with.
 Griffin showed traces of his old time speed last night and he made some of the younger player step some to keep up with him.
 There is some talk or bringing the winner of the Interstate pennant east and play with the winner of the Con- necticut league a series of games when the season closes.
 Waterbury would be in first place now if New Haven had not trimmed them last night. How sore they must be in Waterbury. What's the mat ter with the Brass City, When Bridgeport gives them friendly toost toward the leadership they ,m- mediately throw it away by losing to an inferior team.-Bridgeport Standard. And we beat another in- ferior team last night.
 It is up to the Dumplings to make good in Waterbury tonight. As the Waterbury Democrat puts 1t Bridge port has the pennant bee buzzing merrily. and Waterbury will try to iisarrange the bonnet" An insult like this should not be allowed to go by without notice. R-r-r-rrr-re- Venge.-Bridgeport Standard.
 Gr-r-r-r-r.
 Tommy Holderness played d good blocking game for the Rough Riders last night. The cnly thing the matter with Tommy is that he gets excited loo easily and holds his opponent fin. 'tead of blocking him. Tommy also has habit of kicking the bail. but with all his faults he is a tower of 'trength to the Rough Riders. and opposing players know it, too.-New Haven Union.

SHOULD BE FAST.

A welter-weight championship fight
 between Honey Melody, of Boston, the title-holder and Joe Thomas, of California, is being nursed by mana gers and promoters. Thomas. who has given Melody a decisive beating at catch-weights, now looks like a burly middle-weight, but he says he can make 142 pounds and will do so provided $1,0O0 is posted as a forfeit by the champions packers.
 The proposed battle is one of the first in the crop of fruit that was ripened when Melody stopped Willie Lewis in four rounds Monday night at Valley Falls, K. I. Johnny Moo ney. Mellody's keen manager. says that when Thomas posts a forfeit he will be ready to talk business. Ac- cording to the Boston idea, Thomas weighed nearly 160 pounds when he sent Melody crashing to the canvas last fall after eleven rounds. Having had recent profitable experience with a man who tried to shrink from light heavyweight 10 welter on rush schedule. Melody and Mooney are ready to welcome the sturdy and undeniably rugged Californian as a 142-pounder
 There will be no Valley Falls or "147 pounds at o'clock" in the next fight which is advertised for the well ter-weight championship. Yesterday it was established as bullet-proof truth that the managers of the fight CTS in Monday nights battle agreed several days before the fight on the 141 pounds proposition and advertised the battle as a welter-weight cham pionship affair. This accommodated Lewis more than it did Melody. be- cause 1t was possible for the cham- pion to work of a few pounds. Lcwis would be shadow at 142 pounds.
