he Is the fastest man in the amateur
ranks today and hopes to prove this

AS far as condition goes, Burns is

particularly pleased with the prospects
of a fight with Baldwin, Newarkers
know what a great, battle he put up
against Tommy Carey a week ago, and
he promises a revelation tonight. He
intends to unbelt his right hand, in
which he carries the knockout punch,
and, with his cleverness and great left
jab, he may win before the six-round
limit.
The rest Of the Vendome's good card
sparkles. Tommy Rowan, of Brooklyn,

New York's greatest light
.aI.hA A-I4Aa ir In AM

<TTARLEM TOMMY" MURPHY,
New York's greatest light
weight fighter, is in our
midst. He is out at the Hilton Hotel,
Hilton, a short forty minutes ride
from Broad and Market streets m a
Springfield avenue trolley line. He
came over from New York yesterday
with his manager, Johnny Oliver. and
a retinue of handlers, and established
training quarters at the Hilton hos
telry. He will remain there and do his
daily training until next Tuesday night,
when he fights Battling Hurley at the
Club Vendome.
1t has been some years since New
ark has been the stamping-ground or
top-notch fighters. Murphy Is the first
one to come here to do his training
for a battle since the palmy days OF
Bob Fitzsimmons and Jimmy
Accordingly, keen interest Is being
shown in his presence, and the training
quarters will be the Mecca for fight
followers for the next seven days. Muir
ply has an up-to-date camp. With him
are Bull Mccormick, as sparring part
ner, and Frank LOFTY, another fighter.
Joe Howard is in charge of the camp
and head trainer.
Murphy Is a conscientious worker
while in training, and people who go to
see him work will get plenty of action.
His program will be road work and
field sports In the morning. and boxing
and gymnasium stunts in the after
noon. Hilton is admirably situated for
a training camp, and Murphy is much
pleased with conditions there. There
are four roads running in four different
directions right from in front of the
hoteh The main thoroughfare Is
Springfield avenue, out over the Hilton
flats and the old Irvington-Millburn
bicycle race course through Maple
wood and Mi1lburn, and as far west as
you care to co.; there Is a road to
South Orange, while two other routes
lead to Unionville and Connecticut
Farms, all through stretches of open
country.
In the rear of the hotel Is a baseball
field, and the first thing Murphy did
upon his arrival yesterday afternoon
was to get into his training toys and
bat and catch fies. He likes baseball,
and can play a fair game. This morn
ing he buckted right down to work
with a spin of several miles on the
road. Tho long, old-fashioned bar
room in the hotel has been fitted up
as a gym, and here he will do his box
ing and bag-punching.

Quarter mile Sprint Is Stellar
Event for "PrOs."-M0tOr-
Paced Race.

q ONE rare sport is in store for the
bike followers tomorrow night at
the Newark Velodrome track, as
a crackerjack card of races has been
arranged for the mid-week cycle meet
Five events in all are down to be de-
cided, which includes two national
championship races and a twenty-mile
motor paced three-cornered match race
between Elmer Collins. George Wiley
and Menus Bedell. Then there is a
three-mile handicap for the profession
ais and a three-mile open for the ANA
Tours.
The titular event down on the card
for the professionals is a quarter-mile
dash, in which all of the stars will
ride. This affair should prove to be
one of the greatest aces of the season,
for all the pedal pushers are Keen on
the "four-forty dashes." Champion
Frank L. Kramer is apt to find the
going rather stiff in this race, as the
other stars are out for his scalp. 1t Is
well known among the bike followers
that the East Orange flyer Is riding like
q house af1re this season. Then it must
also be remembered that the other
cracks, Joe Fogler, Norman Anderson,
Paddy O'Sullivan Hehir, ALI. Goulette,
Eddie Root, Freddy Hill, John Bedel,
Floyd Krebs, Eddie Rupprecht, Charles
Stein and Freddy West are In prime
condition and are able to give the
champion a hard battle in the short
dashes. Fogler, Hehir, Root, Goulette
and Anderson have made up their
minds to show Kramer the way in the
race tomorrow, n in order to win the
champion will have to ride the distance
in record time. All the men made fast
time in their workouts at the track
yesterday, and Fogler did the quarter
in almost record time. With every
rider extending his best efforts to win,
the race should furnish a rafting good
finish.
When Elmer Collins, the national
champion pace follower for 1909, George
Wiley and Menus Bedell, are pitted
against each other in the twenty-mile
motor-paced race, some excellent rae
ing should develop. Collins is riding In
wonderful form at the present. He
proved that two weeks ago, at the open
ing night meet, when he won the motor
pace race Wiley and Bedell are also
in good form and should give the
champion a stiff battle. Bedell proved
his ability as a pace Follower to the
satisfaction of the local followers a
week ago when he put up such a great
race against Collins and Moran. Had
It not been for an accident at a most
indppnrtume time he would have wor

himself he had swallowed a large guam

which came until the eighth inning.
This good work was backed by strong
hitting and errorless playing by his
fellow players.
Weber was then called upon to pitch
against the Chester A, c. the present
league leaders. He answered the call
and defeated the Chesters, Bringing his
team into a tie for first place. In this
contest he did his best work, striking
out seventeen men and allowing four
hits, which were well scattered, Inc
were unable to produce a single run
Weber's good work is greatly helped
by the harmony which exists between
his fellow players during the games.
