PARTISAN YOUTHS TRY TO
INITIATE YANKEE BOXERS

While novices in the boxing game
generally afford the spectators a lot
of fun, the American sports who have
seen the novice competitions in Paris
declare they are the funniest things
that ever happened in the game.
The French lads have contracted
the craze to be boxers, and most OF
them who climb into the ring have
never had glove on before in their
lives. At the gong they strike most
eccentric attitudes, which would be a
study for a first-rate knockabout on
a music hall stage. You'd think
they were innovating a new thing
i'm the way of guard" is the way one
man describes it in a letter. AL
ready the crowd is rocking with
laughter, and then you see such an
tics as never before-qulte the latest
inventions in swings and uppercuts,
which invariably miss the mark by
yards and finish up on the floor
Footwork is all thcre-reminds you
forcibly of a cat on hot bricks.
Sometimes these youngsters have
been studying photos of big men, ano
out they come with the classic
crouch and other poses a la mode

comical to see the boys trying to pu
fancy punches into execution.

Philadelphia, March "a. j. Drexel
Biddle of Philadelphia has inaugurated
pugilistic Thursday afternoons" that
are attended by male members of the
smart set, professional bruisers, finan-
cial magnates and representatives of
the learned professions.
The grand son of Anthony Biddle
holds that the Bible and the boxing
gloves are allies. His work among the
youth of the churches of the Quaker
City furnishes apparent proof of the
truth of his beliefs. Settling Satan
with upper-cuts and straight jolts.
A. ]. Drexel Biddle of Philadelphia
loves boxing not only for the sake of
the healthful recreation that it affords,
but because, as he holds, it makes for
morality and whole lot of the manly
virtues. AS a consequence he does all
in his power to popularize the flstic
art in the schools and churches of the
| Quaker City, to say nothing of his eff
forts to make it fashionable among
the members of his own set. And
among the ways i'm which he puts his
beliefs into practice are the mi-pub-
lie gymnasiums that have been brought
into being under his auspices; those
of certain public schools, and the infu-
sion of an athletic element into tho
social side OF the church work in which
he takes an active part. In addition
To all this. he has weekly meetings o
a pugilistic sort in the gymnasium
that is attached to his private resi-
dence on Walnut street. The picture
that is given with this shows one o
such meetings which, by the way, ar
unusually held on Thursday after
moons.
In this instance Mr.. Biddle's oppo
nent is Jack O'Brien, with whom h
has fought on many occasions. 1t ma,
be remarked in this connection tina

GOVERNOR WARNER MAKES
HIS POSITION CLFARI R
Gives His Reason for Stopping
Prize-Fighting Throughout
the State.
NO OPENING FOR OUTSIDERS

II simply will not allow Michigan
to be thrown open to boxers of the
country, who, barred from nearly all
the other states of the Union, think
they see an opening here. There are
laws protecting Michigan from prize
fighting and / do not intend to see
them infringed upon"
The above is the statement made by
Gov. Warner at Grand Rapids Satur-
day. The governor is irrevocably
against prize fighting or contest be-
tween wen known pugilistic stars held
as boxing contests.
The state executive fails to see ad-
vertising of benefit in any tourney of
mitts or good i'm them i'm any other
way, and behind him is the old Mich
igan law which denies the right of
prize fighters or prize fight promoters
to operate i'm this state under penalty
of heavy fine.
] When asked why If Ketchel and
Caponi were stopped not all boxing
bouts i'm Michigan are barred. Tho
governor declared that such engage.
ments which had come to his notice
had been taken care Of. The governor
is decisiyely against the letting int
this state of outside fighters and IN
will continue to be.
1t must be conceded that the day o
the prize fighter is fast vanishing
State after state has either totall
barred fighting or else has so curbe
the game that there is no money Il
1t for the better class performers.
The future of the game lies appar
emily i'm the far west where there ar
several states which sanction boXin
even so far as allowing finish bout
AS regards Michigan, however, it be
hooves the fighters to go where tn
weather suits their clothes"

MILLER VS.. ADAMSON.
Two Famous Wrestlers Will Meet To-
niqht in st, Paul,

ni9Nt Sts
A wrestling match of more than
usual Importance and interest to To-
cal fans is to take place this even
ing at st. Paul when Ed Adamson and
Young Miller meet to settle their
differences.
The two men have been at logger
heads for years past. Adamson was
brought to st. Paul several years ago
under an assumed name and sent
against Miller, who was then a novice
i'm the game and considerably lighter
than his opponent. Miller did not know
who his opponent was until after he
had wrestled for two long hours, using
Herculean strength to hold off man
who was acknowledged to be one of the
best at his weight in the country.
Neither secured a fall and the bout
was declared a draw. Later they
wrestled three hours to draw and at
the time of their last meeting. Miller
weakened and in great pain from blood
poisoning, was the victim of flying
mare" which the tricky Adamson used
on him. After the first fall Miller was
unable to continue and was taken to
the hospital, where an operation was
performed. Miller Is confident he can
defeat Adamson when he is in good
physical condition and he has posted
$3.50 as a side bet for their match to-
night.

MATHIS BOOK READY.
Reference Made to Several Tiger Stars
in Story.


New York, March 3.-Christy Math-
cwson's new romance of the diamond
has at last been permanently and
formally christened, and the fans who
have been losing sleep and weight in
the chase for a suitable name are
ready to draw a long breath of relief
ami prepare themselves for the APP
pearance of the story when it comes
which is to be within the next week
or so.
won i'm the Ninth" is the title
finally selected for the anxiously-
awaited book, and there is a rumor
afloat that ascribes the idea for the
title to an enthusiastic Detroit fans
suggestion, contained in a letter
written to Mathewson while the lat
ter was frantically hunting for a
name.
The Detroit players-those old TIM
ers whose names and faces are famil-
lar to fandom all over the country
are prominently in evidence in the
Mathewson story. Hughie Jennings
Bill Donovan, Mullin, Schmidt, Kill
nan, Ty Cobb and all the rest figure
In the tale in their characteristic poses
and favorite stunts. So do the top
notchers of the game i'm the other Am
erican league clubs.
The Mathewson story is to appear
some time in March or April. The
announcement has aroused new inter-
est of the excited, impatient sort
among the fans the country over, and
they seem almost unable to wait for
the book to be bound.
