Disappointing Year in
Lacrosse Circles

Hope that one of the noted Canadian
lacrosse teams would visit this state
during the present season has been
given up Definite arrangements sat
isfactory TO the northern players could
not be made by local enthusiasts.
In lacrosse circles the last year has
been one OF the. most unsatisfactory
since the sport obtained a foothold in
California. The first disappointment
was the failure of the club teams to
induce the universities or larger prep
paratory schools to take up the game.
Then came the Talagoos' fight with the
association and their withdrawal and
suspension, followed by the retirement
Of the baby team from San Jose and
the poor series of matches between the
Winged o" and Theberge's Commuters
for the championship of the association
Changes in the association rules are
necessary before the sport can be put
upon the footing IT deserves Sharp
recruiting practiced by team managers
in an effort to obtain the crack Cana
dian players that entered the state
with the opening of the season wrecked
the associations schedule and caused
the partial disruption of the organize
tion. Only by the adoption of a long
term residence rule can the wandering
players be kept from goips from one
team to another.

Battler S57O

When Battling Nelson scored HIS first
knockout in the ring, the purse that
had been hung up consisted of 81, and
he never received IL. II was at Ham
mond. Ind. in 1886. and the defeated
pugilist was listed on the cards as
"Wallace's Unknown"
The champion recalled the incident
last night, when he had figured up his
wages for the day. There was quite q
margin between the 81 purse that he
never received and the sum that he
earned last night in doing a double
stunt at the Central theater in this
city and the Macdonough in Oakland.
The Battler drew down for his few
Ininute6 work IN these two playhouses
the sum of $57e.
The largest amount ever won by Nell
son was on his losing fight with Cans
at Goldheld. when the losers end
amounted to $4,000.
Nelson Will say his farewell 70 the
audiences IN the Central and Macdon-
ough tonight. He was given a rousins
reception at both amusement places
last night, the audience in the Macdon-
ough becoming clamorous toward the
end of the play, as the Battler did not
go on until after the last act. He was
called upon for speech and then re-
ceived several curtain calls.
The champion will go to Sacramento
Tuesday, appear there in a theater that
night and then proceed on TO Chicago.

Tennis Experts Of East
and West Compared
By Grant Smith

While the local tennis players made a
clean sweep at Del Monte and incident
ally proved that they possessed too
much skill for any of the eastern stars
outside of the championship class. the
meeting between east and west did not
prove to be entirely satisfactory. Much
credit is due Mclaughlin. James and
Long and their clever performances
stamp them as players of considerable
class, but the question: of how they
compare with the best players in the
east is almost as far from being set
tied as II was before the meeting.
The three visitors doubt did their best
under conditions that were none too favorable.
buh at present they are not Of heavy enough
caliber to defeat the local champions Niles
Wright and Johnson head the second division in
the east and may some dsy hold the national
speed game could not cope with the hard hit
ting. aggressive play of Mclaughlin James snd
Long; In year or two. with the splendid
practice they receive in the east. the visitors
no doubt will improve much more than the local
experts. The latter have almost reached their
limit. while Niles. Wright and johnson are still
students.
Experts in the east develop very slowly as
rule, and a man seldom wins title OF any
Importance until he has played at least 1--WE
years This Is due in part to the short season
and the fact that the players learn the game
by easy stages, Ike a child starting in the
primary school and gradually working up. In
this part OF the country champions develop over
night Nearly every premier we have had has
forged 10 the top within five years and many
have jumped from the bottom to the top IN
less than three years.
Players out this way begin slamming the ball
as soon as they get racket into their hands.
Most of them play almost every day IN the
year and champions develop early but as a
rule have short reign James. Long and Me-
Loughlfn all won the coast championship while
still in their teens. They are at the top yet and
still in their teens, but 1t is safe to say that
they will be back numbers in few years.
The short life OF the local champions Is due
to hard courts. which lack the resiliency OF the

The race was robbed of considerable

they could not reach San Leandro until
