RLALTO GOSSIP
BY jay Davidson

have been performing at Emeryville
this season.
All fears that a rupture would ensue
between the Jockey club and the Brigh-
ton Beach Racing association over
dates for the Brighton Beach meet
ing this year have vanished. The rae
ing association has agreed to pay all
purses owing to horsemen and to put
up a guarantee that all purses won
will be paid this year. The association
also has made peace with the Jockey
club, and will get dates. Despite that
the association refused to pay purses
in 1908, after they had been won, horse
men are nominating to the stake events
in a manner that indicates that the
meeting will be up to the usual stand
ard.
The next show on the card at Maud
Junction will be an all-star Offering
consisting of three ten-round bouts.
Mexican Pete Everett and Jim Cam
eron will furnish the main event, with
Danny Webster and Curley O'Connell in
the semi-windup and frankie Harris
and Joe Livermore in the curtain rails
er. This is good card and undoubt-
edly will draw well at the box office.
1t will be staged January Is.
AL Goodin will ship his string to
Emeryville as soon as he hears an an
nouncement that the meeting has been
extended. He has Old Nick, Creston
Boy, Kinsman, Tramotor and a pair
of 2-year-olds and should win his
share of the purses. Al had a success
full season on the bush circuit last
spring and summer.
1t is coming to be fad with de-
feated fighters to exhibit a dented
cup after the fight to prove that the
victor fought foully. Whether this
would be sufficient to make the pub
lie believe that a whipped man would
have won had he not had the dented
cup is a serious (?) problem, but the
trick is getting stale around Los An
geles just now by being worked over
time.
Another fortnight will wind up JEFF
fries theatrical tour and then the
pugilistic king will return to Los An
geles. Always popular anyway, the
fact that he is to meet Jack Johnson,
claimant of the heavyweight cham
pionship, will make him more so and
he will have to employ a bodyguard
to clear the sidewalks for him. He
will rest up a bit and then start to
training at Burbank.
Jack Doyle is blowing around town
about never having q loser out at his
camp and swelled up like a pouter
pigeon Friday night after Hobo Dough-
erty defeated Kid Troubles. He was
a bit excited after the MemsicWol-
gast bout and talked like he might
give Ad a talking to if the morning pa
pers decided against him and spoiled
the reputation of the Southside club
and its charm. Jack is a good talker,
all right.
