Mbez While MQu
Prove Surprise
ToOdbe Cans

TOE CANS, commonly known as the
"Old Master fights here Friday
j night Nobody knows just what Joe
will do to Jabez White. The last Eng
lishman he fought was Spike Robson,
and Joe hit him on the glove when Rob-
son tried to block with It, Curtain!
We don't know anything about White
In New York except BY reputation His
only fight In America was with Jimmy
Britt in San Francisco Here is what
the San Francisco Bulletin had to say
last week:
THE Joe Gans-Ja6ez White match has
finally been clinChed, as the fighters
have deposited Their forfeit money and
have begun active training They are 10
box ten rounds, the weight being 1885
pounds While both are all in 50 far as
the term goes in fighting circles they
are the two ceverest lghtweights in the
profession, and the sports should wit
ness one OF the most brilliant exh,bi-
tons OF skill with the padded mttts that
they have ever seen. The Briton put
UP very SNOWY and classy fight with
Jimmy Britt when he fought the Native
Son here. In fact, he was SO shifty that
when he had his strength he made Britt
look like a novice, and at that time
would have won in romp in a ten
round go.
Everybody knows how scientific Joe
Is, and as he Is In all proba bility much
stronger than the Britsher, he may be
able to wear him down In ten rounds,
but II all reports sent out from Balti-
more concerning the ex-champions
health can be believed he will have
to stamina"
Pretty good boost for White. How
ever, don't bet your money on boosts
Joe Cans has shown pretty good
knack OF gathering when he wants to,
except when he meets Nelson.
TUNNY-every fighter has his mas
ter. Great as Cans is, he makes
no bones OF admitting that'he has
had enough of Nelson's game. II amt
no plain hawg," says Joe. NO more
Nelson
When asked II he didn't still think
he'd have chance to knock out the
Dane, Joe answered.: I've had three
chances, amt /? | punched him every
time until my arms nearly fell of. I'm
not getting any younger and better"
IF Joe beats White, for all that, he
may be induced to meet Nelson for
ten rounds. The question would be
how Nelson would regard such match.
Bat likes the long distance. Also in
their three fights Cans galloped along
very well for the first ten rounds and
nearly walloped Bats head of, The
same thing might happen in ten round
bout, greatly to Ganss credit. And
don't believe Nelson and Cans either
would or could frame nice exhibition,

I'll recently, gave employment to
about five thousand hands. Many of
the most notable among the German
sculptors had their first training as
carvers of meerschaum pipe bowls
The supply, however, has now almost
ceased. and the only important beds
in the world to-day are in Asia Minor.
The industry there is now controlled
by American and British capital. with
the result that the stuff is now so per
