is causing no little interest through

following from the Wilson Creek
World shows that Wilson Creek is

game:
1T is understood that the ball
game at Wenatchee between Van
couver's crack league team and the
prune eaters on the 18th inst. will
be called Immediately after the ar
rival of No. in that city. If such
is the case and the train is on time
1t is safe to say that many people
from the towns along the Great
Northern railway will go down to
see the Canadians play ball.
While there are not man, 1ase
ball enthusiasts who do no, know
that the Vancouver franchise in the

All doubt regarding the 25-rcund
scrap that the Jeffries Athletic club
has announced as it's Labor day at
traction was dispelled yesterday by the
receipt of conhrmatory messages from
Manager T. e. Jones, representing Bill
Papke, the Illinois Thunderbolt, as to
their intentions. Jones telegraphed
the club that he and Papke would ar
rive in Boston today and would post
their forfeit according to the request of
the club and would leave Boston for
Los Angeles next Friday. There never
has been any doubt as to the Ketcheh
end of the match, as the champion has
posted his forfeit and kilograms from
him are to the effect that he will leave
San Francisco for Los Angeles in time to
arrive here as scheduled on August 30.
O'Connor, Ketchelps manager, con-
firrned this yesterday in San francisco.
Despite the strenuous efforts of the
northern fight trust to break up this
match in favor of their clubs, the fight
will be held at Vernon as scheduled,
and both fighters will be in Los An
geles not later than the last of next
week. Unless Papke changes his
plans for leaving for the coast this
week, he will arrive about next
Wednesday. He already has engaged
training quarters at the South Size
Athletic club and viii get into training
Immediately upon his arrival, despite
that he will have just finished his fight
with Joe Thomas, which is scheduled for
Friday night of this week. The result
of that fight will have no effect upon
the Ketchell-Papke match.
