will pry the lid off of baseball in the
Northwest. The lineup will be: cat

Recently a flash came to this coun-
try informing us that Bob Fitzsim-
mons one of the craftiest and best
fighters that ever stepped into ring,
went down to defeat and that the
epitaph was, He could not come
back"
This same expression will be writ
ten about James j. Jeffries on the
night of July 4, after his battle with
Jack Johnson for the championship
Of the world is over For no matter
how highly they sound the praise of
Jeff now, when he clashes with John
son he will meet his conqueror. 1t
will be a case of science against brute
strength, and in this affair the science
of Johnson will come out on top.
Color Doesn't Influence Him.
/ want to say that 1 am not favor
ing Johnson because we are of tie
same color. If l thought that Jeffrics
could whip Johnson l would be one D.
the first t express by conviction
have been N the game too long to al
low sentiment to cut any figure. L. S
simply a case of whach man l con-
slider the superior, and my choice is
Johnson Again, with me there is no
such thing as the color line. There is
nc doubt that all fair minded men viii
agree with me that fighter is a fight
er pure and simple no matter Whethe:
he is white or black so, therefore, no
one must think that 1 am prejudiced.
When Johnson returned after beating
Burns, every one got excited and
shouted, Jeff will have to lick John
son and bring back the title to the
he might have done so. But now it is
entirely different. In his prime JEFF
fries was a bunch of muscle and bones
that no man could hurt. He has had
years of rest and, at present, the re-
tired champion is simply a mass of
soft flesh that is in such a condition
| that it will be impossible for him to
get back to the old days. Jeff will
| train hard, but nature has had such
an easy time that it will not respond
sufficiently to the treatment, and when
he faces Johnson he will be far from
| the Jeff of old.
| Jeffries may manage to get rid of a
lot of overweight, and may appear as
| fine as fiddle when he sits in his
corner, but take it from me, that old
vitality, which is absolutely necessary
for any kind of a battle, will be miss
| ing and then what can you expect?
1t is almost a positive fact that all
the folks who refuse to give Johnson a
chance within Jeff simply figure
through prejudice against the colored

Crook in Tolls.

Pinkerton Detectives Duhain and
ShevIin last week apprehended a no.
torious ticket-raiser at Moncrief Park
in the person of Red Rogers. The
latter. who has done time in sever
al places, when searched had COM
plete outfit for raising tickets on his
person, including ink, plaster, tickets
and crayons. Captain Duhain, who is
in charge of the policing of the track,
stated that Rogers is the king of tick
et-raising, and the man who initiated
Gray Patch" now awaiting trial in
Brooklyn, N Y, on a similar charge.
Davenport, another clever artist in
this line, is also a pal of Rogers. The
tickets found upon the person of Rog-
ers were mostly from Tom Shaw's
book. Strange though it may seem, it
was through the bookmaker's cashier
at New Orleans that Rogers did time
down there.
On that occasion Rogers presented
raised ticket at ShaW's book. The
cashier noticed the forgery and grab
he'd Rogers by the wrist, holding him
until the track police arrived 1t is
said that Rogers also got in trouble
at Los Angeles last winter.

81 CAN CONE BACK
SAYS TOMMY BURNS

would be a sudden resolution on the
part of Jack Johnson to accept McIn-
toshs offer for a Burns johnson con-
test
Some little time ago an Australian
cablegram conveyed the news that
Burns and Bill Lang, old man Fitzsim-
mons most recent conqueror, had been
signed up to box at McIntosh's Sydney
stadium. No confirmation of this an
nouncement has been received and
while it is possible that the Langford-
Burns match has been made, suspi-
cion exists that the cable has simply
garbled the fact that a Langford-
Burns match is engaging the attention
of the English fight arrangers.
If the announcement that Lang ana
Burns are to fight in Sydney is cor
rect Burns future as ring man will
depend upon the result. If Lang dis
poses of Burns, and such a thing is
among the possibilities, the Burns
Langford affair will probably fall
through and any further references
Tommy Burns may make to a return
match with Johnson will sound more
ridiculous than they do now.
And in the meantime, while Burns Is
quite an idol in Australia, it is the
opinion of Antipodeans, who have had
wide experience in such matters, that
Tommy Burns by one year of retire
ment has spoiled himself as a fighter.
A correspondent says: You have no
idea of the size Burns grew to while
he was taking life easy. He looked
more like an alderman than a pugilist,
and if he can remove that load of nesn
and take up boxing where he quit it
he is a man in a million"
That Tommy himself has some
doubt as to what the future holds for
him in the bruising line is confirmed
by his remark: "They can say what
lilcy Inc, Out lhSdtilSoi WI AZ
worst thing in the world for a fighter"
ketcheI Wanted In Australia.
Word comes from Australia that
there is a keen desire out that way to
bid welcome to Stanley KetcheL but
Judging from the Michigander's pres
ent tactics he is in no hurry to jour
ney to the land of the golden fleece.
Mcintosh has placed all kinds OF
propositions before Ketchel, but with
out result, and it is learned from
private source that Tommy Burns
would like nothing better than to have
Ketchel under his wing during a round
the world tour that would begin IN
Australia and end in the United States
With all respect to foreign induce
ments, the official prospect is brighter
for Ketchel in his own country than IN
any part of the world. When he elects
to begin an earnest course of prepara-
ton he will command more matches
than any other man in his particular
line.

Some Changes in
Baseball Rules

Changes in the playing rules this
year are slight, the main one being
the adjustment of the wild pitch and
passed ball Heretofore they were
charged as battery errors, but in flu
ture will be placed in the error COL
umn
Umpires will now be expected to
call off any player who is a superflu-
Gus item on the coacher's lines, with
out their attention being called to it
by the opposing club. The scoring
rules were not touched at all. The
coachers box at first base was limited
to Is feet toward right field. Any
player substituted for another must
be told to the umpire by the captain
making the change, under penalty OF
SIS fine, and the umpire is fined IS if
he neglects to make the announce
ment
BaIk Rules Unchanged.
The balk rule was not changed
Wild pitches and passed balls, how
ever. must be recorded as errors in
the error column and the summary
will not contain wild pitches or passed
balls. The batting order of both
teams must be given to the umpire
at the home plate before play is called
and the players on the list must begin
the game This is to prevent Juggling
of players.
A batter can change from one box
to the other without being penalized
provided he does so before the pitcher
is in position This was the rule last
season, but is made more clear.
Hereafter when the ball hits the
umpire on foul grounds it will not
be called dead, but the baserunner
can take as many bases as he is able
to.
Take Three Bases Now.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 5.-Can
Tommy Burns come back? This is the
question the Australian sports are ask
ing. After II months Of ease and lndo-
lence the lure of the ring is strong
upon the Canadian and he wants to
fight again.
Since his defeat by Johnson the
Australians have seen Tommy grow
into a portly parsonage. Much automo-
billing and high feeding gave Tommy
an obese appearance and it suddenly
occurred to him a month or two ago,
that if he did not begin working off
the avoirdupois he would be eligible
for the Antipodean Fat Mems club.
That Tommy has not found the pro-
cess of reducing the easiest thing in
the world is suggested in one of his
letters to the writer. He says:
"They can say what they like. but
theatrical work is the worst thing in
Tie WOTlU LOT d lighter.
Tommy means, of course, that fat
forms and the wind becomes thick
when a fellow deserts the roped enclo-
sure f,r the footlights.
Tommy Thinks He Can.
That Tommy does not consider his
case entirely hopeless is shown by his
bellicose utterances. He wants to fight
any man living, Jack Johnson for first
choice. Tommy's Australian friend
Promoter Hugh Mcintosh, has made an
offer of $4,000 for a Johnson Burns
fight, the same to take place months
after the Johnson effries affair
Burns is willing to fight on a winner
take-all basis and Mcintosh sends
word that the offer stands good no
matter how Johnson fares in his battle
with Jeffries Mcintosh also offers to
pay all of Johnson's expenses during
the Australian trip.
1t isn't likely that the bout will come
to a head, however, unless there is a
shrinkage in Johnsons demands or an
increase in McIntosh's offer When
Burns and Johnson fought before,
Tommy received $4,000. Johnson says
he must have the same amount for his
share before he will become a party TO
the Australian match.
Personally, do not think Burns has
great expectations of securing a re-
turn date with Johnson, and / have
reasons for thinking that one of the
important engagements of 1910 VIII
be a 20-round fight between Tommy
Burns and Sam Langford at the Ma
tional Sporting club London. next June
or July. --

Johnson Won't Be Afraid.

Johnson will enter the ring with no
fear of losing to Jeffries. That, you
must admit, is a great asset in q
championship battle. In fact, he fig
ures that this fight will be the easiest
in his career. This may not please
Jeffs admirers, but it is the pain
truth. When they start you can go
broke that Jack will use all his clev-
erness to prevent Jeff landing in the
early rounds his terrible right that
has wrecked so many good men. That
means that Johnson will keep on the
defensive until he thinks Jeff has lost
lot of his strength and is having
trouble with his wind
" hen Jack is satisfied that he holds
the upper hard then hs will change
his tactics and try t.. peat Jeff down
with those sharp uppercuts and sting
ing jabs that will take the big fell
lows energy away and leave him 4

If the runner on third leaves the
bag before the ball is caught the UNI

will also decide plays between third
and home
The field umpire will decide all
plays on the bases, and has authority
to remove and fine players. In case
of doubt either umpire may consult
with his colleague, and the decision
arrived at is final. The umpire is
given power to impose s. fines as
follows:
If the player soils the ball; if he
sits on the bench one minute after
being called to bat; violates the coach
ing rules; throws his bat and it strikes
an umpire or another payer, and if
he fails to notify the umpire of any
changes.
Fine Takers.
If the substitutes sitting on the
bench talk too loud or indecently the
umpire can fine each $40 and remove
them all from the bench. If the cap
tain of the team needs any of the

If a player assists and then puts
out a runner he shall be given an as
