Jack O'Brien is to be next opponent OF

Is made on the authority of johnson, who
received a telegram last night from
Phtladelphia asking to quote terms for the
fight. While johnson refused to quote
terms upon which he will fight. he said:
Il will. in all likelihood, meet O. Brien.
II the terms are satisfactory there will be
no doubt of 1t. but want the fight to
take place before / leave for London.
May 25.
Il am keeping In shape and can get into

How about O'Erien," was asked, will

Il won't worry about Jack" said John

The place for the Johnson-O o Brien bat
tie probably will be fixed In short time.
1t, In all probability, will be a six-round
go at Philadelphia. After that Johnson
goes to London for a ten-week trip. Ii
new arrangements are made Johnson will

WRIGHT WINS WITH CUE.
Californian Beats jackson in Anna
teur Billiard Tournament.


NEW YORK, April 22-By an exhibi
ton Of clever nursing H. A. Wright OF
San Francisco won his second game in
the amateur billiard tournament at the
Liederkranz Club last night, defeating
Clarence jackson Of the Illinois Athletic
Club Of Chicago by total Of 400 to 800
at 1872 balk Hne. In the sixteenth inning
Wright broke the high-run record OF the
tournament. clicking OF a string OF 81.
which is better than the cd record by
two points. The run was marked by
some Of the best billiards that has been
seen in the tournament.
SAversl times Wright was confronted by
difiicult positions that required the great
est skill to overcome, but the ease with
which he made masse shots and cushion
draws made the run look like the merest
pastime. On the eightythird shot the
balls lined up on one side Of the side rails,
the cue ball being close to the cushion
and two object balls in direct line and
close to the cue ivory, the line pointing
toward one OF the corners. Wright studied
the shot for some time and then at
tempted a freehand masse, In which
kiss was involved. 1t was only by the
smallest fraction o: an inch that the shot
failed to count.
For the first part Of the game Jackson
and Wright clung on almost even terms.

though II was evident that the San Fran
cisco player was the more expert with
the cue At the close OF the fifteenth
inning there was only one point difference
between the contestants and In the six
teenth Jackson took the lead after 1t had
wavered from one to the other all through
the contest. Wright came back with a
run OF SO. and from this point on
was never headed. While Wright showed
marked superiority over Jackson. there
was evident. too, q degree Of carelessness
that brough his average down TO II 22-2T
when he had good chance to hang up a
record mark. Twice he fouled when he
had the balls In excellent positions for
runs. and these two happenings came at
the beginning OF innings. Jackson made

HIGH SCHOOL BOYS
START TOMORROW

The first game Of the high school series
will be played at American League Park
tomorrow afternoon at 3 o'clock. between

Both teams are booked to make a strong
bid for the championship this season, but
the betting In tomorrow's game is slight
ly in favor OF the o street team. as
''Shag" Rawlings. the star twirler Of the

Business has been going good lately,
and has been hitting the ball with much
consistency but 1t is doubtful whether
the Rhode Island school can produce q
twirler capable Of holding the Centraittes
in check. Brooks will most likely be
Capt. Keane's choice to serve them over.
It Is as yet undecided whether Boetler or
Bullock will represent the o street team,
in the opening contest, but 1t will make
very little difference, as each pitcher Is
abeu. on a par with the other.
A large crowd is expected to be on
hand. as the game Is predicted to be
close and interesting from the start. The
probable lineup OF both teams is as fol-
