SACRAMENTO, Aug. 29.-Sacramento
md san Jose battled for lS innings to-
lay. the locals finally winning out by a
core Of 3 to ?. No better game Of
baseball was ever played here. The
ielding was of high order, many SEN
sational plays being pulled off.

Both Stricklett and Whalen pitched

times. but was exceedingly effective
when men were on bases.
Stricklett protested after Hooper
scored because Umpire Mccarthy would
not send the runner back TO third base,
claiming that he should be allowed but
two bases on an overthrow. When Nc
Carthy refused Stricklett struck at
him. A fight was only prevented when

together four more evenly balanced
masters of the manly art than Attell,
Moran. Nelson and Cans.
1t will be years and perhaps life
time, ere the San Francisco sports will
have the opportunity of viewing such
an attraction again. The fact that each
brace of boxers has met before and
made ring. history only serves to add
but served to demonstrate that they
will battle even harder this time, for
there is more at stake.
According to the present flow and
ebb of popular sentiment, the meeting
of the lightweights will be the stellar
event and the one that viii attract the
ring goers. From the moment the
match was made, two months ago,
fightdom has taken kindly to it, till,
at the present time, the interest which
is being manifested gives promise of
making it the lightweight battle of
years.
But the Importance of the feather
weight struggle should not be lost in
the cloud of smoke that the light
weight encounter has raised. This fight
will undoubtedly prove one of those
ring affairs which the fans like to de-
clare they would walk miles to see. 1t
will bring together the greatest feather
weight that the British isles boast and
the most wonderful little fighter that
Uncle Sam has given to the world in
many year. Their meeting last New
Years day clearly showed that both
men are as evenly matched as any two
who ever entered a ring, and that they
should clash again.
There is but one drawback to the
fight and that is the distance, 23
rounds. The last time they met the
boys went rs TO a draw and now the
wise followers of the game can not
figure out how either is going to gain
a decisive victory wien the route will
be two rounds shorter. At this. Attell
has the better of the little Brfton for
with his cleverness he figures to look
out for himself very nicely in such a
limited go.
The Admission day fight will settle
as a tighter. Many thought. that when
Nelson bowled him over on July and
snatched from the old master the proud
title he held for so many years that he
was done with the ring, but, instead
he begged for another chance on the
plea that he was caught mapping, and
the Dane very graciously bowed to his
request. Hence the great match.
Joe Is as confident as man ever was
that he will come back. He still VOWS
after the third round of the last bat
tie and he then realized too late that
lack Of proper training mad beaten him
before the battle was we'll on. Despite

of those fighters who lose heart and
spirit. especially after so many years of
active ring service. One decisive beat
following close on its heels it would
appear that Joe's sun will set quickly,
and he will go the way of so many
other great ones whose memories are
now forgotten since the new genera
tion sprang into being.
NELSON DAUNTLEss
Nelson needs no analysis. He is the
same formidable, dauntless lighting ma
chine that he was when he got his
start by putting the rollers under the
tough Spider Welch in Salt Lake City
some four years ago. The new cham
pion has never changed since that time.
Whenever he fought it was with his
way from the first rung to the last
one on the great ladder of fame. He
was never lucky or fortunate. What
ever he has he gained by his wonderful
tenacity and his undying gameness.
Nelson is the ideal fighter In the
strict sense of the word. Cleverness
they figure to remain hostile to each
other for all time. All the Battler
knows is fight He eats, sleeps and
practices fight. Whenever he starts, he
finishes. He never 1oafs, he never kids
in the ring and. above all, he is on the
square This more than anything else
is what has made Battling Nelson the
king of lightweights. Everybody knows
what he will be on Admission day.
Everybody knows that he will tear
right after Cans and never stop. He
knows, as well as the multitude, that
black Joe is going to give him a terri
bic lacing for few rounds. Nelson
fully realizes that he will not be in the
going till the mill Is advanced, but,
then, there is bound to be q change.
Naturally, the majority of ring goers
favor the Dane after his last showing.
According to present conditions, the
public is going to send him into the
ring a favorite over the man he van
quished less than two months ago. No
matter what the price. Nelson will have
his hackers. Any man who can and
stanch supporters. He is the popular
idol and 1t is up to him to hold. the
championship after his long struggle to
attain it.
ATeTELL Is TAyORITE
The short route OF the feather weight
battle makes Attell a choice over Mo-
ran. The men who study the events of
can win over Attell in 23 rounds. Most
of them take it for granted that Moran
must knock Attell out in order to be
declared the victor and they cannot fig-
ure cut how Owen will accomplish this
great feat
Moran certainly will give us the best
there Is in him. He Is one of those
conscientious little fighters who be-
his cleverness but his gamepess and
plodding powers and his ability to hit
that makes him the fighter he is. He
is going to play for knockout and he

great fighter, but marvelously clever
boxer. II he cannot win via the knock
out route within the stipulated %
rounds he has fine chance to dance
around and pepper Moran with that un-

is why he refused to go a long route
with the Briton.
Abe is one of the craftiest men in
the ring today. He weighs every pos

OF signing up for a go. If he sees that
Moran is too tough for him he will un-
doubtedly stay away and make long

to the referee to decide which is the
