MERIDIAN, Miss, March l5.-The
Itime-honored position of DOME BUSH
as the matinee idol OF the Detroit ciub'
remains mistaken as yet, but the fact
remains that Detroit is likely 10 be the
happy possessor OF considerable al
dition to its list OF bachelor ball play

Mr. Coviugton is unmarried. So are
Messrs. Mitchell and Cavet Mr.,
Drake is still a bachelor. though he Is
admittedly lowering on the brink. Mr..
LATTE hasn't been harnessed yet.
Neither has Mr.. Corcoran. Neither

able scarcity OF timber for idols,

personal nature with Grand Rapids

Chick" comes very near being the
ideal fiance. The other day he was
riding on a street car, seated ahead OF
two rather gaily-attired young ladies.
Various advances failed TO attract his
attention and finally, one OF the south
ern bellies began toying with one OF
his sleeve buttons. Chick" was hor-
ror-stricken. He turned around and
said:
why, what do YOU mean? What is
your idea, anyhow"
The lady desisted and made no fur

Clevelander Too Fast and Clever for
Trott, But Loser Is Game
To the Last.

III eight rounds Of fast fighting,
Tommy Kilbane. OF Cleveland, out
pointed Sammy Trott, OF Columbus
o.. Wednesday night before the Wind
sor Athletic club
Although Trott lacked in cleverness
over his rival, he was right there
when il came TO taking punishment
and in spite of tusilade OF LETT
jabs and hooks that usually bounced
against his jaw, he would always
come back eager for more. Trott
pressed the milling from the opening
round but Kilbane's speed made
Trotts efforts futile. Trott had a
right uppercut which he used but
not often enough 10 do any damage
The bout was by far the best that
the club has conducted.
In the semi-final Tommy Linn, %
Buffalo and George st. Pierre had
a tame six-round draw and in the
opening bout Murphy and Oleson
gave humorous exhibition OF the
manly art.

Both can hit with the damage OF a
mules kick. so somebody is apt to
drop before the Goth round.
The men will make 1873 pounds
ringside, but this weight is apt to
bother Memsic as he is really well
ter weight and has had lots OF trou-
bic in the past getting down TO the
lightweight figure Wolgast will prob
ably enter the ring three pounds be-
low the required figure. The fight
will be held in the old Vernon arena,
