Landlord Has Punch.

It took sam Langford just Two rounds
and one punch TO put John Vile down
and out in their recent 60 Vile Is one
of the toughest fighters in thesTing, and
when a single punch slows him away
there must be something in that punch.
Bob Wilson. who appeared al the local
Orpbeum the past week, told the writer
nat Ianrford had one Of the hardest
lunches he ever saw. Wilson saw the
ficht at Frisco where the Boston tar
baby sent Flynn down and out IN the
first round. He says the blow that did
the business did not travel more than
six inches. and that it came quicker
than a flash. Hardly had the fight
started before Flynn led with a hght
left. q. sort of feeler. for Langford' 5
- With one movement, Wilson says
.gford broke down the lead and
crossed his right TO the jaw. sending
Flynn down in a heap. Wilson thinks
Tancford is the one man to down big

champion in the ring.

Walker on Jack o'Rrien.

Sporting Writer Walker OF Los An
geles has the following to say about
lack O'Brien since his recent fight with
STANLEY Ketchel at New York:
Faker Philadelphia Jack O'Brien took
the whipping of a lifetime in order TO
get his name in the papers again. Some
of the eastern sporting writers are now
advocating that O'Brien should be re-
ceived back into public favor again
simply because he entered the ring
against a better man, Stanley Ketchel,
and took a licking that he could not
escape.
O'Brien is the most notorious faker IN
the pugiIistic world today, and should
he barred out OF every boxing club in
the country. 1t is not the fact that he
was caught red-handed in Los Angeles
that alone stamps the Philadelphia
man as being the most dangerous char
acter before the Queensbury public to-
day. O'Buien has faxed time after
time. and what makes his position all
the more despicable is that he gloried
in his ability to cheat the men who paid
their good money to see honest con-
tests.
O'Brien, after his undoing in this
city on May s, 1907, published a sensa-
tioDaI set OF confessions" which were
printed in New York City IN these ar
ticles ne confessed 10 taking fights al
over the United States Becoming en-

thusiastic over his own misdeeds,
O'Brien sought to pose as a hero FOR
having been clever enough to hoodwtnk
the smart fight promoters and boxing
experts OF the country.
The point is this: A man who has
engaged in wholesale taking, such as
O'Brien had proudly confessed 70, can
never again regain the confidence Of
the public. O'Brien's misdeeds have
netted him a fortune, he being rated
as one of the wealthiest pugtlists in the
world today. Unlike Joe Cans, he can
not plead poverty as an excuse to
crawl back and ask forgiveness. The
philadelphia faker has had his day. No
real sportsman viii ever tolerate
O'Brien and his sure thing methods
again.
Admitting that everything Walker
saws about O'Brien is true, how can the
same writer consistently boost Tommy
Burns? Every word said IN the above
article about O'Brien is equally true Of
Burns.

There is no denying the fact that
James J. Jeffries is a long way from
being the man who retired from the
worlds championship four years ago.
When the big fellow was practically
forced into training four months ago
nv a public demand that he take the
measure Of Jack Johnson II was
thought that in a short time Jet would
come out with the announcement thaI
he could soon train into condition, ana
that he would meet the black peril
since then the public has watched the
hia fellow in his work. and the reports
are anything but encouraging. II Is
claimed by many who have seen Jeffrles
IT, rbe last two weeks that the former
champion is in no better shape now
than when he first began doing hgnJ
work. Al Los Angeles some months ago.
These reports come from his friends
and those whose hope is that Jeff may
return TO the ring and defeat the dusky
champion. The writer's VINO three
months ago declared Johnson would be
easy for Jeffries, and who have since
seen jim, now say il is impossible Tor
the boflerrnaker to ever get in shape 10
whin Johnson. II seems impossible that
Jeffries could have gone back so TAR IN
fo1r wears. but Il must be true. The
writer does not think Jack Johnson ever
was or ever viii be in d class OF the
Jeffries Of old, but every athlete has his
dav. and it is possible that the greatest
fighter the world has ever known mas
seen his.

Just Suppos'n.

Just suppos'n all this talk about Jim
Jeffries not being able to get in the ring
is bunk! Suppos'n the big fellow is hit
ting the high places at night and puff
ing like a steam engine during his
training in the daytime 10 fool the
Wiseheimers down east on his real con-
dition, SuppOs'n Jeffries creates an
impression that he is all in and switches
the betting odds in favor of the negro.
Suppos'n he is right, and knocks the
block of of one Jack Johnson! What
a killing those on the inside would
make,

CLARK GRIFFITH
INVENTS QUOT BALL

Atlanta. Ca, April 1O.-Clark Griffith
has discovered a new style Of delivery
that viii be just as much a puzzleT as the
spit ball The new-fangied deliVery mas
been christened the "QuOit ball
Griffith made his first demonstration
with the QUOT BALI with Charley Sturr
doing the receiving. The famous master
of the slow ball has given this new de-
livery a lot of study, and as it is some
thing absolutely new, It should prove a
sensation.
THE quot ball is started below the hip
The pitcher takes q long swing, with the
back Of his hand toward the batSman-
ne throws the ball very much Ike q
man playing quoits losses the quot. but
of course he puts a twist on it. Tor the
purposes of footing the batter As the
bali leaves his hand, Griff puts bunch
Of reverse English on It. and the sphere
boop. with the reverse on il, rolls on the
floor. o.
ct was the funniest kind Of q ball
ever caught" said Sturr- after the dem

VaiIshura Hard UP.

All spring the cry has gone up among
the Wiseheimers OF the city that there
would not be any bicycle talent in salt
Lake the coming season The same
source Of Information had it that
that Vailsburg had all the riders signed
Up. and that there would be nothing
doing in Salt Lake. The Vailsburg track
opened last Sunday, and TO quote a
Newark paper: There were not SO
many Of the pro stars present as the
crowd would have liked, but there was
a classy field of amateurs" This would
Indicate that maybe Vailsburg, instead
Of Salt Lake, will have to do a little
hustling this year for riders.
