The English champion in general
appearance looks like a hard man to

BY outpointing Attell, Wells showed
wonderful science. Attell. always a
great boxer. was there with his usual
skill. but Wells simply outclassed him.
The Briton was SO shifty that he ac-
tually bewildered the featherweight
champion. who. under the circum.
stances, wasn't disgraced by a long
shot. Attell. going into the ring,
weighed 121 1-2 pounds. while the
English champion carried at least 1873,
about sixteen pounds more than the
American.
It was this difference in bulk, and
Wells unexpected cleverness and
speed that made Attell look slow in
comparison. Furthermore, there is
reason to believe hat Attell, having
recently recovered. from a broken
shoulder. was afraid to take too many
desperate chances with it, for a repe-
tition Of the injury would have meant
six months more Of idleness and an
empty pocketbook.

MCDONALD-DEITZ
GO WILL BE GOOD

The Bun" Deitz-Angie. Mcdonald
wrestling match, which will be staged
in East Grand Forks next Thursday
night. is attracting a great deal of at
tention. From present indications.
Keller's hall, where the sport program
will be held, will be the rendezvous Of
practically every follower of the box
ing and wrestling sport in the two
cities.
Both Deitz and Mcdonald are we'll
known. They have wrestled a num-
Der Of times and are about as evenly
matched as 1t is possible for opponents
to be. Before the recent Cutler Chal-
lender match. the two struggled for
thirty minutes without a fall. The
scheduling of the two for a finish bout
will give them an opportunity of
settling the intense rivalry which they
have never had a chance to do before.
An interesting card of preliminaries,
including two sparing matches be-
tween local .wielders Of the padded
mttts. will also be given.
Mcdonald is at the present time on
q farm near the city getting in shape
for the match, and Deitz is putting in
time at the Y. M. c. A. training for
the fray.

Connie Mack remembered Murphy.
and when he was framing that 1902
team he trotted down to Norwich one
day, and when he continued along to
Boston, where the Athletics were then
playing. he had Murphy's contract in
his pocket.
Mmrphy's debut was enough to give
the Giants an attack Of heart failure.
He made six hits in six times up
against old Cy Young. and one OF these
was q home run with three men on
bases.
Murphy knows more inside stun
about the national game than half the
touted wonders. His throwing is a
superb asset. timely always.
He covers right field in splendid
shape. He hits right handed and is
a 300 walloper sixty minutes every

that he throws.

KLEIN RIDICULED
FOR STATEMENT

Philadelphia, Oct. 2s.-The inter-
view given out by Umpire KLEIN. in
which he said that Larry Doyle of
the Chants did not touch the plate
when he scored the winning run in
the tenth inning at the Polo grounds,
New York. Wednesday,, was branded
as ridiculous.
Many claim that KLEIN wa seeking
a bit Of publicity, while others con-
tend that If Doyle really did miss the
plate he should have kept 1t to him
self and not make an attempt to show
that the best teams are guilty OF
headless play.
Doyle says he touched the plate
and rolled completely over 1t. while
McCraw says the same thing and
adds that II Doyle had missed the
plate he would have rushed to hin.
and ordered him back to recross 1t.
Connie Mack said that he placed

WILL TEST HORSES
FOR CONFORMATION
Exhibition Proper Opens at
Fort Myer Tomorrow.

Judging OF the conformation OF the $50

show will begin at Fort Nyer to-day.
Brig Gen. J. H. AIeshire, Maj Henry T.
Allen, Lieut. Col. +. ST. J. Greble. and
Capt Guy V. Henry will look the horses
over and do the preliminary Judging.
The conformation is the general build of
sidera ton. his proportion. and the other
purely physical and technical details of
his makeup If a horse has a sway
back. if his neck is too big. if his legs
are too long or too thin, or if he has
blemishes. he will be marked down in
conformation.
The conformation of the horses counts
p per cent in the majority of the ten
classes to be shown at the exhibition
proper tomorrow. In 4 number of the
classes conformation will not be taken
into consideration. the Judging being
done entirely on performance,
Often a horse who is marked way down
in conformation will perform so we'll
when shown that he will get into the
ribbons. and also a poor performer may
conform perfectly.
The actual horse show will begin at
9 O'Clock tomorrow afternoon. Nearly
1000 private invitations have been issued,
and Washington society and the diplo-
matte corps will be well represented in
the galleries of the post drill hall at
Fort Myer.
The same judges will serve both days.
