POLICE STOPPED IT.

New Haven, Jan 16.-An attempt to put through a boxing bout be- tween Charlie Doherty, Jeff Doher- tvs brother, and Wally Altieri, at the athletic carnival of the Allied Printing association, held in Forest CTS hall. 5 Church street, last night. was stopped by tho police. Hearing that the word has been passed along that the bout would take place at the entertainment, Chief Cowles sent Sergeant Phil Smith with Pa trolmen McCrane. Eagan and Carton in plain clothes 10 enjoy the first part of the entertainment and to put a stop to the last. Everything went along finely until the time for the bout, when. a halt was called as the combatants were about to step into the ring. The management did not like the idea of having the bout stopped and protested. Arrest was threatened and the printers finally calmed down. Sergeant Smith ex- plained that the license for an ath- letic carnival. which had been grant ed. did not mean a license for a box ing match. lazy Winters and Jack Bostwick gave a first-elass exhibi- ton of wrestling, struggling for thirty minutes. While neither se- cured a. fall it WAS generally con ceded that Winters had the better of the match.

WOMAN SPORTING EDITOR.
For Two. Years She Has Held the
 Position.

The Trinidad, Col, Evening Chron- icle-News is, in one respect, distin- guished above all other newspapers in the United States in that 1t has woman sporting editor.
 The young woman-she is only 24 years old-who holds down the sporting editors desk on the Chroni- cle-News so we'll that the applica- tions of male candidates for the job are never considered, Is Miss Ina Eloise Young.
 When she was asked to tell how it happened she said:
 "I have been doing newspaper work for three years-general re- porting, and covering everything from a fire 10 a suicide.
 Tt was by accident that I became sporting editor of my paper two years ago. At the opening of the base ball season, which. in the west, Is the only real sporting season of the year, there was snot man on the paper who could even keep a score or knew practically anything of the game.
 ''I do know base ball. for I learned 1t about the time when boys of my age learn to play ball. My brother taught me the game because he al- ways needed somebody to fill base or some position and I could do it
 When grew up he taught me how to keep score and l evolved method of my own of following the players from the home plate around to that station again-if they could do it.
 "I began covering games to i'll in until a man could be secured for the position. and have been doing it ever since. the managing editor con sidering my work sufficiently good to guarantee keeping me.

New Orleans, Jan. 16.-George H. Holle's Colloquy, backed for thousands st to 5 by plunger and piker alike. won the second race at the Fair ground track. The victory of the Russell mare was a sad blow to the gentlemen Of the high stools, for they were forced to pay out at least S12,000 after the race.
 Colloquy's win was pretty narrow one, for Toy Boy came like shot at the end and almost nipped the leader. Momentum ran third. In driving finish Pedro won the Magnolia selling stakes by short head from Temaceo at to 1. The winners follow:

THE DIAMOND
MIKE DONLIN
 GIVEN PRAISE
Jimmy Callahan Says He is the Greatest Ball Player in the
 Country.

Jimmy Callahan, formerly Of the White Sox, who is running an inde pendent club in Chicago, with whom Mike Donlin played last year, says that Donlin is one of the best inside players in the business. Said Cal lahon the other day: Few men can work with the stick the way Donlin does. For instance, we had q play last year, an old one, but good, never" theless. It is one that works better in the mi-professional class than it does with the big leagues, where the third basemen are wiser. We started off with Donlin ill second place and then switched him down to fourth place in the batting order to clean up. I batted just ahead of Mike, and occasionally it happened that would lead off at the beginning of an in ming If I got on second base with one or none out Donlin worked the play.
 He would hold his bat out over the plate as if ready to bunt. If the third baseman came ill on it that let me Sltdl i'Si'i''' let the ball go by for a first or even a second strike. If the third baseman moved back to take the throw to get me Donlin would lay down the bunt. I could always depend on him. When I played with the White Sox l used to work this play with George Davis. He was d corking good man on fly like that. Very few big leaguers will take second strike to help out such a trick, but Davis would do it at any time Then with the runner on third he was in position to score on d long fly, hit, or anything good that came along. Donlin knows how to shoulder basemen about to catch thrown balls better than any player I've ever seen. Mike is up to all kinds of snuff. He played first base for me last year and did splendidly. His bat ting was terrific

JOHN L. WRATHY.
Fires Out Man Who Asked Him to
 Drink.

John L. Sullivan is filling an en- gagement at the Toronto Gayety theater this week with Jake Kilrain. Early Monday evening Minneapolis man visited him in his room at the proceeded the visitor asked John l.. to have bottle of wine.
 The pugilist was obviously ruftie1, and with a dangerous gleam in his eye, he unceremoniously elected the visitor at a double quick pace through the doorway.
 "I got through with that game some time ago." he said, as he slipped a glass of seltzer, but 1t seems hard to convince some people of my sim cerity."
 John l.. fought his last ring battle fifteen years ago, but the greatest fight of his career was won only three years ago, when he overcame the drinking habit.
 "I got away with ten fortunes" he said reminiscently, "and three years ago made up my mind that 1 had to leave the bubbles alone, and I have stuck to that determination ever since"
 He talks very learnedly on tenn perance laws and principles and he believes that if he could have ap- piled the principles he nov advocates to his own method of living fifteen years ago he would have retained the championship for several more years.
 Here are some of the nom de plumes with which John L. has been furnished during his ring career: Boston Hercules, Knight of the Elves, the Magnificent Sullivan, the Hard Hitting Sullivan, the Boston Miracle, King of the Ring, Boston's Phllal- thropist Prize Fighter, Boston 8 Grant, Scientific America, Trio Ham, mer Jack, Spartacus Sullivan, Mon arch of the Prize Ring. Bost0n's Pride and Joy. Sullivan the Great, Sullivan the Wonder, Prizefighting Caesar, Champion Founder, Goliath of the Ring, Roxbury Strong Boy. and the Big Fellow. Another appropriate title now would be John l.. Anti-Sa- loon Sullivan.

THE SPORTING NEWS.
EDDIE HIGGINS COMING.
Fastest and Trickiest Rusher in the
 World For Waterbury.

Manager McMahon has claimed right along that when the time came he would land one of the best rushers in the business for this city. The time arrived when the last few days for the Interstate was wabbling and at once Manager Mac got busy with the telegraph and Higgins and the local manager came to terms III short order. digger" Higgins will arrive in this city next Sunday and will play with Waterbury beginning next week. With the coming of Higgins, Daly may be dropped, or he may be retained as the sixth man. Dan has tried hard to fill the bill and at times showed flashes of good form, but there was always some little draw back which prevented him from mak- ing good :. The local management has been playing about the biggest salaries of any manager in the business and it was reported all the players received cut last night. The locals have no kick coming at that The crowds have not been very big down in the local rink and there was no money in sight for the management unless there was change. The salaries were kept up throughout all the hard times and there should be no complaint if there was little cut. Every line of business in this country in the past two months has made reduction in its force of help and in it's salary list. Why then, should there be any kick coming when a reduction in salaries is made on polo team that has been playing to small money and has con tinually kept at the foot of the ladder

POLO NOTES.

New Haven here tonight.
 Eddie Higgins will be here next week.
 Looks as if Frank Sutton would be out of a job in Bridgeport pretty soon.
 The whole Newcastle team Is going to Bridgeport with Lewis and Mercer on the rush line and Harper in goal. Griffith may be the only Bridgeporter retained.
 It will be easy for "Fido" Sutton to get a position. There are some of the teams that could be improved in the goal tend line, notably Providence and Pawtucket.
 Freddie Pence has been signed by Pawtucket to play at goal. Pence has been playing for the sharon team and is a product of the west and Is rated as a good man in front of the cage. Cusick'is good enough for us.
 With Eddie Higgins and Bob Lox- son on the rush line. Jack Fahey at center. Tommy Holderness at half back and Dave Cusick at goal. 1t Is good betting there is no team in this league that has anything on Water bury.
 All the bluff and bluster Of the ln- terstate league Is now a thing Of the past. The pipe has been smoked and the sun has set. John Roberts. Eddie Menard and Jimmy Canavan are still out there with a lot Of other has, beens.

NEW HAVEN
 HERE TONIGHT We Ought to Take a Fall Out of That Bunch - Great DoiDgs
 in Polo.

We will have the leaders here this evening and if we play the same kind of q game that we did against New Britain the other evening, we should record another victory. New Haven is playing fast polo just at the pres ent time, in fact, as fast as any that has been seen in any polo league ill several seasons. She is now at the top of the ladder and expects to re- main there. Waterbury always did have q knack of hitting the leaders in any sport good and hard, just when they least expected it. That may be the case this evening when we stack up against George Bone and his bunch of fast ones. We ought to see faster polo now also, for the boys on each team will be trying to hold their jobs now that the Interstate has gone up and so many good ones are on the market. It is just possible that Wa terbury will retain all her present team with the addition of one more rusher. However, the boys will be out to win tonight no matter what happens.
