NEW SPORT IN PARIS.
Racing IN 80 Steps Is Latest
French Athletic Test.

One hundred-yard dashes straight up
in the air-that is a new sport that has
made hit in Paris
How long could the best athlete keep
going if he had to step as far Up as he
does forward each time? 1t takes a
stout heart to run straightaway What
a strain it must be, then. to run the
distance up a winding stairway!
The presence Of the EineI Tower is
responsible for this new test of lung
power and endurance. The engineer
who built the tallest structure in the
world for the Paris fair of 1SS9-a dis
tinction it still holds after nineteen
years, perhaps never figured that the
towering pile would be the scene Of
athletic contests.
Only a few Sundays ago Paris turned

speed going up the steps to the second
platform. This is distance of $50
feet, the height of many modern sky
scrapers.
The winner in the independent class.
J. Bielen, made the distance in min
utes and is seconds. Quite a difference
between that and ten seconds of fat
running. In making the trip Bielen
had to mount $50 steps. Only the hard
lest athletes can mount these steps
without slowing up to a walk.

RING STARS ARE UNPOPULAR
Few of the Present Champions Have
Many Friends.
Cans Was Kissed at TOnOpah, but
lie Is Not the Only One Who
Is Not Liked.

In Tonopah, New. on Tuesday after
noon a crowd of close to 5000 fight fans
stood up and hissed Joe Cans, acknowl-
edged to be the greatest lightweight
fighting machine that ever fought in the
ring kid" Herman, looking like a
novice and helpless before the negro
master. was wildly Cheered even when at
his worst
Cans is surely an unpopular champion.
His color for one thing is against him,
and his fake fights have added to the
dislike the fighting world has for him.
He however. is not the first one
jim Je6ries. standing even higher in
his class than does Joe Cans among the
light-weights, was never popular. Abe
AtteH is not. Tommy Ryan was never
idolized.
Jefries is not man of striking per-
sonality. His great bulk is also against
his being popular. And then. too, h. Is
like Attell. the greatest feathcr-Welght
and Ryan, the best Of the middle-weights
he cares nothing for what the public
thinks
Kid Mccoy was never popular. II was
the case of Ryan and Joe Cans; the pub
lie seldom believed him sincere. Jimmy
Britt was always disiiked in many
quarters.
I'm "a good drawing card because they
don't like me-" Britt once said. ''They

PLAYERS ARE SENSITIVE.
KeenIy Feel Stings of Sarcasm and
Hate Adverse Criticism.


Sensitiveness is one Of the character
istics Of baseball players, many mem
bers of the profession being touchy in
spots and some all over. They dislike
to have their work criticised in a derog-
atory way. as # units them for duty
and keeps them in q disturbed state OF
mind. They keenly feel the stings of
sarcasm or the jibes of disappointed
fans. In other words, adverse criticism
breaks them all up.
While the majority of present-day
managers advise their players to keep
plugging away and ignore criticism,
many are unable 10 follow that sensible
advice. They cannot stand the gaff
Of adverse comment. Baseball history
tells of a number of good players who
chose TO retire from the profession
rather than be subjected to remarks
which rankled within their bosoms and
upset their equilibriums. Posing as
they do in the continual limelight as
public celebrities, bali players should
possess natures impervious 10 attack.
but all are not built alike.
When the bIeacherites get after a
player the music begins and is cOntin-
uous unless the offender turns the tide
by making a good play and is forgiven.
Baseball fans are fickle class-always
have been and always will be. They
are very apt TO hand a ballplayer q
bouquet one day and a lemon the next.
Few fans are lenient in judgment
but once a player makes good with
them he possesses an army of friends
who hold him up as an idol until the
passing years bring stiffness 10 his
joints and he drops out Of sight into a
lesser league.

NO BOWLING ENTRIES
Washington Teams Are Tn
decided About Tournament.
CHANGE TO ATLANTIC CITY
Matches which Were Scheduled for
philadelphia Have BeeD Trans
ferred to Seaside Resort and Wash
fnGton Pin SpilIers Are Not Likely
TO Participate in Games.

It looks as if Washington will not be
represented in either Of the national bowl
ing tournaments that are to be held
within the next two months.
When the Eastern bowlers decided TO
withdraw from the American Bowling
Congress the city association decided to
affiliate itself with the National Bowling
Association, which is composed Of the
strongest teams of Baltimore, New York,
Boston. and Washington, and there was
every indication that the tournament
scheduled for next month in Philadel-
phia would rival. in number Of entries
and quality of bowling. the matches Of
the American Bowling Congress at St
Louis about the same time So enthu-
siastic were the Washington pin spillers
at the idea Of an Eastern tournament
that nearly 100 rollers expressed their in
tention of participating at Philadelphia
Within the last two weeks the pro-
moters Of the Philadelphia tournament
have sent out notices that there will be
no matches in that city. but instead, the
tournament has been transferred TO At
Iantic City. beginning March p. and ex-
tending about ten days. Washington
sent no representative To the meeting
that decided TO change the scene of the
tournament, and all the information
received at local headquarters has been
through the blanks sent out from the
Philadelphia alley owners, who VIII
finance the Atlantic City venture.
Relations with Journeys.
So far as registration of the bowlers
is concerned, the relations with the St
Louis and the Atlantic City tournaments
are the same, with the exception that
Washington was prime mover in the
formation of the Eastern association, and
George 5. Livingston and George T. Cox,
both Of this city, were elected vice presi-
dent and a member Of the executive
committee, respectively.
During the week the Washington City
Association will meet and decide just
what is so be done in regard to the com
ing tournaments but at the present time
it looks as though no teams viii COM
pete. unless some of the club members
are willing to bear the expenses Of send
ing the teams.
Washington has always fared well in
the national tournaments, and this sea
son the bOwICrs were especially confident
OF bringing home "a share of the prize
money. but the shifting Of the matches
from Philadelphia and the change Of
dates has practically killed the scheme.

offer Of the Wolverines 20 compete in q
dual indoor meet with them this season.
While all the members of the varsity
track team favored the acceptance of the
challenge Of the Western champions, il
was the opinion Of the authorities that
the Red and Blue after a hard series Of
indoor meets throughout the country,
their own weekly sports and the relay
races and the intercollegiate champion
ships. would have little time for a battle
with such a worthy foe as the Wolverines
on the cinder path.
