THE PASSING OF JOE CANS

I When Cans became champion,
he fell into bad hands and for
several years lie was known as
the o-ookedest FIGHTER that ever
stepped between the ropes. His
greatest fake was with Terry Nc

fights, allowing his opponents to
stay so that he and his hackers
could win the round money. His
fake with Britt was one of the
rawest ever attempted and almost
forced his retirement from the
ring.
Cans placed himself in better
hands, however, confessed that he

Cans took up boxing because
he was inclined to i'll health. He
displayed such cleverness that he
was urged to make boxing his
profession. In 1894 Cans began
to show the real stuff in him and
from that time until he fell before
Nelson, he fought every light
weight that sought a battle with
him and some times he took on
the welters. After fighting his
way through the second a1d third

who burned up the league last
season: Dygert and Atkins, men
any club would pay big money for.
But in working Coombs and
Morgan, Mack was showing base
ball shrewdness. Time was when
neither Coombs nor Morgan
ranked high. They had strength
and endurance and speed, but
lacked control.
In the year Mack spent getting
his youngsters into playing form
he learned that the oftener
Coombs and Morgan were worked
the better their control. 1t was
all a matter of pitching in actual
contests. This year the pair every
other day have become as steady
as clocks.
Bender, who has no superior
when in form, is a fragile athlete,
and this season his stomach has
bothered him. Plank is a veteran
who cannot stand the heat of mid
summer and retain his effective

Krause will pitch his first game
Aug. Is, against Chicago, in this
city. He will come into the game
as fresh blood when other league
pitchers are worn with the fight.
But with Morgan and Coombs
resting, Mack's force would be
reduced to three pitchers, so he
secured Russell, who will report
before the conclusion of the
American league season.
