EVEN BREAK IN
 DOUBLE HEADER

Ho1yoke took revenge on the Orators. Saturday,, at Newfield Park, for that ninth inning victory that we pulled out at Holyoke on Monday, they turning the tables doing the same thing in the first game of the double header, win ming the game 6-3, but losing the sec ond 4 to 3 because the fielding and pitching of Jimmie Gibbs was too much for them. It was the first ap- pearance at Newfield Park of the Pa permakers and a fair sized crowd turn ed out to welcome them.
 Frank Beaumont, the former Orator back stop, did duty in the second game. Files was puzzle to the Ora tors in the starter, allowing only half a dozen hits. Bridgeport in this game showed up well in the field, not an error being recorded The score was tie, 3-3, up to the ninth, but the Papermakers landed on Romer for three runs, winning the contest
 Jimmie Gibbs was opposed to Old Man McCabe and had the better of the argument. Gibbs played fine field ing game, accepting nine chances with out a misplay. The Orators put up a grand game in the field, the only being a wild heave by Bour- quin to complete a double play. The locals punched hits with errors in the third session. scoring all their runs.

It was in the third inning after chances had been given to retire the side that the risi- tors landed on Deegan scoring ten runs. Outside of this inning the play was tame, the only redeeming feature being the batting of Hilt who with his two home runs scored ali of the locals runs. 1t was in the first that he drove the sphere over, center field fence and in the third sent Dee- gan and Steinhauser who had been passed with another drive to the fence which hit the cement track and bounded over.

WHY JEFFRIES REFUSES TO
 REFEREE FIGHT

James J. Jeffries refuses to referee the fight between Stanley Ketchel and Jack Johnson next October, although requested by Ketchel to act. Jeffries said today:
 "Ketchel wants me to referee his fight with Johnson, but right here I say no. In the first place, 1t would not be consistent I am heart and soul with Ketchel in that fight. want to see him win. I make no bones about that sentiment. How would it look for me to get into the ring as a. third man with that feeling in me?
 My syrnpathies are with Ketchel or any other-white man who fights John son for the championship, and I hope that Ketchel will beat him, for it will simply save me the troubie.''

purpose of James J. Jeffries He is terribly in earnest in his mission which is to defend the title of the world championship against the black race. It is not so much that Jeffries cares about the money the match will bring, for as is well known he is in-i dependentIy wealthy, his fruit pianta- tions and farms in California yielding him a rich return. His money is care fully invested in paying properties and those who know assert he is worth not far from a quarter of million dollars. He has carefully husbanded his re- sources and it is for the honor of the. Caucasian race that he agrees to once more enter the ring. That he will dispose of the black man when they do meet is the belief of those who have made fistic affairs their special study
 There is a great demand for tickets. for the exhibition at Smiths Thursday night. Seats may now be obtained at the box office or at the leading cafes. Manager Hogan of the Stratfield A C., under whose auspices Jeffries was induced to make Bridgeport one of the few places in New England where he is to appear, today received many or ders for tickets from surrounding towns and those .who propose to avail themselves of what will undoubtedly be the last opportunity they will ever have of seeing the mighty Jeffries in action had better get busy now and secure their tickets. The prices are most reasonable, the regular house schedule for high class attractions be- ing in vogue.

 That was a joke outfit the Chicago Americans sent here yesterday. Suter, the first pitcher tried out had a sore arm. but fooled the Orators early Daugherty and Atz were the. only regulars playing. although Welday gets into the game once in a while. Man. ager Sullivan sat on the bench.
 Frank Hi1t was the real kid yester- day connecting for two homers. which were the only hits made off the Chicago pitchers. That first wallop of Frank S would have hit the fence at Newfield.
 George Bone is very much unsatis- fled with the showing made by the Undertakers last week. O'Brien who has been playing center has been benched- Thomas who has been warm ing the bench will take his place. Reiseigl the bow legged pitcher. who has been doing good work has been indefinitely suspended. If they can carry off a victory from the Orators to-day with that make shift they will be quite lucky.
