Outlook is Bright For
Mammoth Attendance
New Year Night.

The ring where Tommy and Johnny
F2lbane of Cleveland will go fifteen
rounds New Year night will be elevated
so that all can see what is going on in

Tickets for the show will be sold on
the train from Cleveland the night of
the match to accommodate out-of-town
patrons. Akron has disposed of all the
seats sent there and have applied for
more, which were sent last night. From
present indications IL will tax the Audi
torium to hold the lovers of the spaTrlng
game New Year night.
Two good preliminaries have been ar
ranged Tommy Gavigan, who will go
eight rounds with Battling Kelly sends
word that he has a reputation 10 make
and wants to make Canton his starting
place on the road to fame. Kelly says he
will try and make it a stopping place for
Gavigan. Needless to say the best man
will win that match.

orable impression at his maiden appear

in n curtain raiser Of four rounds dura-
tlon. Stahler is dieting himself on scrap
iron to make him strong. Strapp has a
stellar reputation wherever he has show
ed and the curtain raiser will be on a par
with the remainder of the performance.
The reserve seat sale opened at KlaftCr
Brothers store yesterday and a big hole
was made in the ticket rack From the
outlook right now many are going to start

HIGH SCHOOL, WILL HAVE
GOOD HOCKEY TEAM
CLEVELAND AND SIMPSONS TO
MEET SUNDAY AT WILSON'S
RINK,

Ice hockey--which has recently been re-
vived with much success in Canton, can
justly be said to be one of the most
thrilling and interesting of our Ameri-
can games, not only to the players but
spectators alike. Its main drawback in
this country has been the uncertainty Of
the weather, but since Canton now pos
sesses an indoor rink and games can be
scheduled with some degree of certainty,
the game will without doubt become our
most popular winter sport.
Canton already has several good teams,
and 1t is now planned to organize High
school team, as the enthusiasm among
the students is high, and there are many
good skaters among them, Most of the
Cleveland High schools have hockey
teams, and games will probably be ar
ranged between them.
In scheduling the Cleveland All-Stars
for Sunday afternoon, the Simpson
Hockey team is bringing to Canton as
CLASSY bunch of hockey players as there
exists in amateur circles, as the All-Stars
are the pick of the crack Cleveland
Hockey league, the majority OF them be-
Ing Canadians, where hockey is the ma
tional sport. The game will be in Will
sons indoor skating rink, at 4 p. m.
The Simpsons are putting in some
strenuous practices for this game and
will hold another practice this evening
at 10 o'clock, Immediately after the skat-
ing session, when the management desires
all regulars and candidates for positions
TO report.

wish For his work as a Cub during the
last campaign, an extra check for that
amount was handed big jeff and when he
said goodbye to Mr.. Murphy, the latter
assured him he would repeat the dose If
Orvie could gather in 20 victories next
season. Overall replied he would try, but
reminded Charles Webb that it would
take a lot of work to do that WELL and
that he might demand more when the
time came, Mordecai Brown will be an
other West Side artist to get in on the
bonus thing. Brownie was promised
81 900 for his labors in the 1909 battles. He
has not received the gift but is not wor-

The Philadelphia club has refused to

PULLED FIRE BOX SO SHE
GOULD MAIL LETTER

A useless run was made by the
fire department Wednesday morning,
when an alarm of fire was sent in
from box Sc, Mshoning and Third
streets.
The department arrived there to
find a woman, who was not used to
city ways, standing with a letter in
her hand.
She had opened the box and find
ing no slot to insert her letter she
took hold of the hook and gave it a
pull, thinking no doubt that in this
way the opening would be made. She
saw the department whirl around the
corner and gaZed at the apparatus with
awe until Chief Mesnar asked her
where the fire was located
Fire, why there isn't any fire that
i know of. l wanted to mail this let
ter"
The chief could not help but laugh,
as he tagged the remainder of his
department and started those that
had already reached the place back to
their houses.
The woman explained that she had
only resided in Canton for a few days
and was told by one of her neigh.
bors that she did not need TO go to
the postoffice to mail missive, but
that she should drop it in the mail
box.

NO TIGHTS; NO RACINESS
IN GIRL FROM RECTORS

The "Girl from Rector's", which
played at the Grand Wednesday night,
might be characterized as an assort-
ment of frivolous people of exceedingly
light morals and ludicrous situations.
While there IS a little OF the sus-
gestiYe in many parts OF the play still
il could hardly be classed as ''risque." Z"
Everything is too funny and impos-
sible.
The play is written, according to the
program, in the hope that 1t will serve
the useful purpose of uplifting the
morals of the American nation, but
laudible as their intentions may be,
it is hardly possible that its uplifting
qualities will affect the nation to any
great extent.
The bald headed row" expected to

DEATH CLAIMED LARGE
TOLL IN SPORT ORIOLES
Grim Reaper Has Trimmed
Ranks of Distinguished Men
to Unusual Extent.

New York, Dec. 29.-Death has thinned
the ranks of distinguished figures in the
world of sport to an unusual extent IN
the year now near It's close. Pennsyl-
vania and contiguous territory contribute
cd its quota to the grim reaper. In near
ly all branches of professional and anna
teur sports it has invaded high places,
but the baseball world particularly has
suffered heavy losses.
The National league suffered the loss
of its president, Harry C. Pulliam, and
the owners of three of the eight clubs
comprising the circuit The club own
ers who died during the year were Frank
De Hass Robinson of st. Louis, George
Dovev Of Boston and Israel Durham, who
was ere dited with being the chief owner
of the Philadelphia club.
Among others whose names were prom
inently associated with baSeball were
DIR. Maurice Powers, catcher of the Phil
adelphia American league; Edward ~.
Leahy, once a well known catcher with
the Philadelphia club; Charles Pinckney,
second baseman of the Dayton team In
the Central league; Willie Hogg, pitcher
on the Louisville American association
club; j. f. Cone, a veteran OF chicago;
in Pittsburg and other cities, and many
others.
The mortality among turfmen and 9TH
ers identified with racing has also been
great Included in the list are Joel
Fealer a noted breeder of Mt. Sterling,
KY; George M. Webb of Philadelphia, a
well known trainer; Clarence Mcdowell
of Baltimore, whk had presided at many
metropolitan trad 4ks, and numerous oth-
ers.
During the year death removed from
the world of pugilism such well slnown
figures as Willus Britt, Eddie Connolly,
Patsy O'Hara, Martin Snee, Mickey
Sears and James Kelly.

as George Price, the veteran oarsman;

OPEN FIELD TACKLING
FAVORED FOR FOOTBALL
Alterations in Game to Make il
Better Will Be Made.

New York, Dec. %. - There were still
some members of the Intercollegiate
football rules committee in town today
for Profs Stage Lambeth and Savage
remained over for the meeting of the
Athletic Research society. 1t Is undet-
stood that the entire rules committee Will
meet IN this city about the beginning OF
the second week in January to begin their
work on the rules. AT that time the com
mittee will do its best to reconcile all the
suggestions that have been made and will
turn out the best game they are able TO
devise, in accordance with the resolu-
tiun of the l. G. A. a u. S.
Captain Palmer +. Pierce, U. S. A,

and that the check was on the way The
Carlisle Indian school has applied for
membership.
In the Tuesday night conference almost
all the speakers showed opposition to the
open field tackling. A disposition was
shown to befriend the idea, borrowed
from this Canadian game, of giving the
player chance either to catch or to muff
the ball, making the tackler wait, mean
while, three yards away.

NEW YORK FANS ARE
ROASTING MCGRAW

New York Dec. 29.-New York baseball
fans are wondering today what Manager
McGraw, Of the Giants, means by asking
waivers on Centerfielder Cy Seymour, the
the 800 circle last season. McGraw has
admitted that the outfeld of his team
is its weakest department and the fans
can't see where the dropping of the vet
eran Cy, who really played brilliant ball
toward the end of last season, is going
to help matters.
The rumpus that Seymour got into with
McGraw during the training season last
year, when Cy assaulted Coach Arlie
Latham and drew a long suspension as a
result, is believed to be back. of McGraw's S
action.
McGraw is consequently being severely
criticised for letting personal dislike enter
INFO his management of the team. It is
not believed that the other major league
clubs will let Seymour be sent back to
the minors

McALEER'S TIP KILLS
GEO. STONE DEAL

ST. Louis, Dec 29.-Robert Lee Hedges,
iwner of the st. Louis Browns, did not
send his former manager, James II. Nc
Aieer, any Christmas present. Hedges
isn't on good terms with his late part
ner, and says that James r. had no
business to tell Charley Comiskey not to
make deal for George Stone. The
White Sox owner was hot after George,
all right, until McAleer tipped him off
to the fact that Stones injury was likely
to affect his play for more than one
season.
The moment Comiskey learned this he
told Hedges he didn't want Stone and
wasn't seeking players who are on the
toboPgan. The Old Roman was just on
the point Of letting Hedges have Frank
Smith for Stone, when McAleer told him
the physical condition of the once heavy
hitting outfelder. Stone for several
months, according to McAleer, has been
troubled with an injury to his hip, and
shows no signs Of getting any better. AS
long as Stones hip troubles him, Nc
Aleer told Comiskey, the outfielder never
would be able to hit as in former days
