PAPKE TO MEET TWO
NEW ENGLAND PUGS.

BOSTON, Aug. ~12.-Johnny Carroll, of
New York, has been selected by the
Armory Club to meet billy Papke to-
morrow night in place of Mike Dono-
van, of Rochester, who has reported
sick. Carroll reached here today, and
looks to be in fair shape for the en-
counter with the Spring Valley "Thun-
derbolt."
1t has already been decided to put
Carroll on first with Papke, n then
Frank Mantell, of Pawtucket, will be
sent into the arena for the last go,
both bouts being scheduled for six
rounds.
The house is expected to be well filled
and Papke will be the drawing card.
Mantell' has many friends In town, and
many of them are predicting that the
Pawtucket lad viii give the Western
boy a battle worth witnessing.
Papke is to meet Sailor Burke at the
National Club, of New York, on August
IS, and expects to get through the bouts
tonight without much trouble.

Great Runner Will Take Part in
K. of c. Games in This
City.

Worlds records are due to go by the
boards at the coming Knights of Co
lumbus games which are to be held at
Hillside Park IN Saturday, August %.
At least Guy Haskins, considered a
superior runner to Melvin Sheppard, is
able 10 do it.
Haskins is the University of Penn
sylvania runne who has met and de-
feated Sheppard. The two men are
bitter rivals, and today the knights OF
Columbus committee announces that
Masking will surely compete at the
games and will try to make a worlds
record.
There is a strong likelihood that Me
Sheppard will be one of Haskins's OPP
ponents. President Conway, of the
Irish American Athletic Club, of New
York. has promised the local commit
tee that he would get Sheppard to take
part in the games here. This would
mean that Sheppard would be pitted
against Haskins. and a hot fight Is
sure to result, as Haskins claims that
he is superior to Sheppard any day In
the week.
The letter of acceptance as sent tc
John f. O'Hara. of the field day com
mlttee of the Newark knights of Co
lumbus. is as follows:

Tomorrow the Torontos will be here

Designer Fife, since the Shamrock
has proved such a success, Is more con-
fident than ever Of his ability to de-
sign a boat under the universal rule
which will be successful in lifting the
cup. During his visit to America last
year Mr.. Fife carefully observed the
new ideas adopted by transatlantic
builders and designers, and many Of
these have been embodied in the Sham
rock. A combination of his own and
American ideas, with improvements
learned from the experience with the

Of bringing back the cup.
Cold Comfort from Our Ynchtsmen.
OAK BLUFFS, Mass, Aug. 12.-Com-
modore Cornelius Vanderbilt n the
other New York Yacht Club officers
refused last night to discuss the cable
from London regarding Sir Thomas
Lipton's Willingness to challenge for
the Americas cup under the condition
that the so-called universal rule apply
to the measurement of h boats. They
said that they did not propose to jump
fences until they came to them, but
added that If Sir Thomas sends a chal-
lenge it will receive due consideration
There Is no universal rule in yachting.
An attempt to create one was made
last year at a conference held In Lon
don, but no American club was repre-
scented. There now is q rule generally
used in this country, and there are sew
eral in Europe.
When Sir Thomas sent his challenge
last October the New York Yacht Club
decided by vote that the Americas cup
should be raced for only by the latest
yachts that could be built on a ninety
foot waterline. The feeling in the club
is that only the fastest boats that can
be built should race for the prize. Sir
Thomas claims that yachts such as the
Reliance are good for nothing except
racing. He wants a contest between
cruising craft. Ex-Commodore Lewis
Cass Ledyard and others have pointed
out that IL an American turfman tried
to enter a truck horse in the English
Derby or the claim of its usefulness he
would be laughed at.

The offer from the Pacific Islands

interesting possibilities.

alton of the various Governments
concerned. 1t is intended to thorough
ly cover Oceania.

also understood that the Pacific Phos-

lation carried out on their possessions,
Ocean and Pleasant Island.
The promoters of the scheme are
meeting with encouragement and by
the end of the year it is anticipated
that a start will be made with the
installation of the service. The COM
pany is to maintain communication,
and for so doing is asking the various
Governments controlling the places to
be benefited. to support the service.
The Fijian authorities are willing, it
is said. to pay large sum for the
installation of the service on the prin-
cipal islands under their jurisdiction.
other islands have agreed to cooper

cap racing, the boats were apt to get
so far apart that a race lost much of
its keenness. Probably there were
good reasons why they did not have
one-design boats and if he could not
have that class of competition he must
race in some form or another with
them. (Cheers) Lady Dudley was
just as keenly interested in yachting as
he was. (Cheers) On one occasion he
