PAPKE AND KELLY
TO FIGHT As ROUNDS

SAN FRANCISCO. May 15-Hugo Kel~
ly and Billy Papke are scheduled to fight
forty-five rounds at Colma this afternoons
In fourth attempt to settle the question:
of superiority that has puzzled fight fol-
lowers for years. In previous battles
Papke was awarded the decision in the
first encounter; the second was a draw.
and in their third meeting, which was
called draw. Kelly Is said to have made
the better showing. After such thorough
knowledge OF each others faults. both
men have trained hard for today's strug~
gle and the vanquished cannot urge lack
Of preparation as an excuse for inability
to go the long route. Both have reduced
gradually to the stipulated 1853 pounds
and apparently without loss OF vitality
or stamina.
In fact. SO favorably has each inn
pressed close observers that opinion has
remained almost equally divided as to
their respective merits. Until last night
the odds were at evens. but before mid
vorite. probably because the German is
considered q stronger, harder puncher
and better able to fight three hours
should the bout be prolonged to the ad-
vertised limit. Opposed to this view OF
the matter are the contentious OF Kelly's
hackers. who cite his superior cleverness
and all-round ring generalship as the pegs
upon which to hang hopes.
In explaining the adverse decision In
his first argument with Papke. Kelly
says he broke an arm early In the con-
test. In regard to the twenty-fve-round
fight at Los Angeles, which most OF the
spectators thought was favorable to Kel-
ly, although declared a draw by Referee
Jeffries, Papke explains that he was a
sick man.
There will be one preliminary and them
at 2:30 the old rivals will be called upon
to settle their dispute.
Rifle and Revolver Club.
On next Monday night, May II. at 7:30
o'clock the club will hold several re.
volver matches on its range in the winter
armory, 9Th and L streets northwest. One
match Is for the Harris & Shafer cup
which is for the individual indoor re-
volver championship of the club for the
year 1903. The conditions are twenty
shots at seventy-fve feet with any re-
volver. Another match is for a gold
watch fob donated by the club. and the
conditions in this match are the same as
in the championship match. large
number OF members are expected to be
present. as this shoot will be Of unusual
interest
On the same evening the handsome
French chime clock which was recently
won by the club in its series Of matches
with the Baltimore Revolver Association
for the intercity championship will be
on exhibition. The clock Is a beautiful
example Of the clockmaker's art and the
members are very proud of their achieve-
ment in winning this handsome trophy.
The members will begin shooting on the
outdoor range very shortly and most
successful season Is looked forward to.

Virginia City Not in Danger.

Although Professor George j. Young,
mining professor of the University of
Nevada, states that the land upon
which Virginia City stands is gradually
slipping into the canyon and that there
may some day be a horrible catastro-
phe, r. l.. Fulton and others who are
acquainted with conditions on the Com
stock state that there is no immediate
danger Of a general landslide.
Fulton states that it is true that Vir-
ginia City has been gradually slipping
down the side of Mount Davidson for
the past few years. but that he does not
believe the land will slide enough at one
time to cause the city to sink all at
once He says that there is a big crack
along the side of Mount Davidson above
the city, showing how the mountain
side had slipped, and that timbers in
the mines, originally fourteen inches
square, have been crushed together un-
til they have been made less than four
inches through, and that the sinking is
too gradual to do any great harm.
1t will be remembered that some
years ago a big two-story house sank
from sight one night on the Comstock.
and that only recently a portion Of the
lode known as the Glory Hole caved in.
but aside from this there have been but
few serious accidents.
Virginia City is undermined from one
end to the other and all that is holding
the surface crust in position is the tim
bering. This timbering Is perfect, how
ever, and it is not believed that it would
all give away at one time and allow the
whole city to sink--Eureka Sentinel
