DAY FOR BIG PURSES
FOR FIGHTS IS GONE
Jack Johnson Says He Must
Fight for Little Money
in Future.

BOSTON, September 24.-Jack Johnson,
New York today to take up the PROPOSE
ton made by Hugh Mcintosh the Aus
tralian promoter, for battle in England
with Sam Langford for purse Of $25, 900
and expenses. The champion, when seen
at the Hotel Upton this morning,
said that he intended to leave for
Gotham last night and meet the Amer
lean representatives of the Australian for
the purpose of closing the match today,
but important business here made him
postpone the trip.
Il am going to sign up for that purse
If I can break away from my theatrical
contract for FIVE or six weeks. I realize
that 1 cannot get bigger purse any,
where at the present time for q bout with
Lansford or any other man, and am 60
ing to accept the match. The fighting
game is in the rut for the time being and
that offer Is one that should not be thrust
aside just now.
From present indications cannot see
any immediate 'uplift' for the sport, and
right. I am willing to sign with Sam on
q winner-take-all basis. am also going
to insist on a side bet. The purse Is q
small one compared with that Reno bum
die, but McIntosh's offer Is worth consid-
ering, IL Langford puts up something on
tho side, as an added incentive for me to
cut loose from my present engagements.
IF / close certain arrangements here
today I will leave for New York this
evening or a little sooner"
The offer from abroad and Johnson's
inclination to get down to real business
made a strong impression on both Sam
Langford and Joe Woodman. II am
ready TO sign for Sam on any fair terms"
said Joe. I'VE will make side bet with
johnson, and do anything at all that Is
fair to bring about a meeting

FOOT BALL RULES GET
REAL TRY-OUT TODAY
The Games Will Give Cracks a
Chance to Put Theories
Into Actual Practice.

Today the new foot ball rules will re-
ceive their first real tryout in actual
competition. OF the many games sched-
uled that between Carlisle ano Villa
Nova at Harrisburg. Pa, will be watched
with greatest interest by rule makers
and coaches alike. 1t is conceded that
the rules this year lend themselves more
than ever to open foot ball, and conduce
toward trick" playing. 1t is also con-
ceded that the Carlisle Indians excel at
tricky foot ball.
Up at Ithaca, Cornell will try some
of the new foot ball on Hobart, and in
Philadelphia Pennsylvania will practice
on Ursinus. These are the three big
games OF today. and all Of them Will
be closely analysed by the foot ball
solons during the coming week.
The forward pass will undoubtedly be
used freely by the big teams in today 8
games, and a fairly good line on the
effect of the recent rulings on this par
ticular piece Of foot ball strategy will be
demonstrated.
Although none of the contests set for
this afternoon is in itself important, al
together they will serve as a great try
out for the game as 1T will be played
this season. Theories will be put into
practice, and the good ones. as shown
by results, will be separated from the bad
ones.
Besides the three already mentioned,
the following games are scheduled for
today:
Western Maryland at Dickinson,
Bloomsbury Normal at Lafayette, st..
Bonaventure at Syracuse. Rhode Island
at Amherst 'Aggies," Hebron at Colby,
Norwich at Holy Cross, Alumni at Ge-
neva, Troy POLY" at Williams, William
and Mary at University Of Virginia,
Buchtel at Western Reserve.

MULBERRIES ARE SCARCE.
Famous Trees in Finsbury Circus
London, Bearing Lightly.
Foreign Correspondence of The Star.
JnNnON canto-har 4.


LONDON, September II, 1910.
In the gardens OF Finsbury Circus,
among the smooth lawns and flower beds
still gay with brilliant geraniums and
calceolarias. the famous mulberry trees
are now due to bear fruit, but here. as
everywhere else, this appalling summer
has left its mark. and berries are very
scarce.
The fruit IL always presented to Guild
hall, and in some past seasons the gar
deners have picked several platefuls from
the three fine trees that for the last eight
years have stood i'm this little oasis of
the city, When the circus was place of
residence for city merchants. at the be-
ginning of the nineteenth century, it is
easy to see how the trees fourished, but
now that the whole circus Is ringed in
with lofty offices IL seems wonderful that
the trees should still survive. Charter
house Square, in another part of the city
has a mulberry tree. and so has Throg-
morton avenue, one of the narrow alley
ways near the stock exchange, but neith-
er of these trees ever bears any fruit.
