DARK CLOUDS IN
PUGILISTIC SKIES

Tt looks as though the combine of dusky-
hued fighters has cornered everything In
the nueilistic game. The tar babies have
the snort nailed down tightly and clinched
underneath. 1T also appears as II this
state of affairs Is going to continue for
some time. There doesn't seem to be one
white heavyweight who can give john
son any kind Of tilt. There is sure to
be a colored heavyweight championships
as sure as there will be booze on New
Year day and big heads the day after.
Mr.. Samuel Langford, from the City OF
Culture seems to be the baby who VIII

they meet.
Jim Coffroth Of California will offer
Young treasury to get this fight and has
already got his line out for the match
The weight question does not bother Sam:
He can make the middleweight limit and
will get in the ring with any or the Dig
men. Ketchel and Kaufman do not look
very promising to beat the big colored
man, and there is no chance for Jim JET
fries coming out to fight again, though 1t
is the general opinion that he would be
beaten if he did go up against the dusky
one.
Then there is Jack Blackburn, who can
make 40 pounds without any trouble, and
he seems to have the welterWeight market
under control. Blackburn Is having the

boys are having making living at the
boxing game. despite the fact that they
are on top at the present time. A report
from Philadelphia says that Young Pierce,
a Observation-Disclosures colored-is coming
along at rapid rate, and will soon be in
line to meet the best feathers in the coun-
try. Every one knows what Daddy Joe
Cans was. , colored figher must get to
the top in order to get any recognition.
and right now it looks as If the colored
gentlemen are sitting right on top Of the
ladder. and it will be a hard matter to
knock them off.
The question on the Pacific coast at the
present time seems to be whether Lang
ford Is Ketchers master. According to
reports from that section OF the country.
Langford and Ketchel will be matched
in the near future, and there is sure to
be some clash when this pair get in the
ring. The manner in which Langford
hoped around Fireman Flynn gave the
fight fans In the Golden city the impress
sion that he was just as good as he was
said to be. There is no doubt that this
match will take place sooner or later.
Langford is just crazy to get on with
Ketchel, as the dusky one from Boston
thinks that he Is right in line now for
the heavyweight championship.

Worlds Series to Continue.

CINCINNATI, Ohio, January q
Among the National League owners there
Is no intention of abandoning the games
for the worlds championship. which have
become such an important factor in the
final base ball contests of the year. Now
and then for the last two months there
have been rumors that the games might
be discontinued. There have been init
nations that the greed of players has
had something to do with the Indifferent
manner of some of the owners toward
further worlds series. 1t is true that
the players have rather overdone the eff
feet of demands upon the public at large,
through the owners of the clubs, making
too much insiStence upon extraordinary
return for something which is supposed
to be a part of professional ball player S
reward for doing his work well.

Donald and Povey. who were two of the
shining lights in the game. jumped their
contracts, and this action has been taken
by the league officers For some time
the air in hockey circles here has been
clouded with rumors OF desertions, and
these rumors have had more than the
usual ominous bearing. At last they
have come to a head and the first ordeal
has passed. and the Western Pennsyl-
yanfa Hockey League has withstood the
assault which the Jumpers" apparently
thought would put hockey on the back

NEW YORK, January 2.-The action of
the English Lawn Tennis Association in
deferring action on certain proposed
changes In the rules. particularly those
referring to foot faults. until a better
understanding could be arrived at with
the national association in this country
was wholly reasonable. while being strik-
ingly fair. 1t is hoped that the spirit
which led to the resolution being tabled
will be accepted here at its face value
and that an effort will be made to meet
the English association half way in for
mulating a rule which will be acceptable
to both countries.
