MORAN, He TELLS
Of HIS TROUBLES
English Pug Relates a Long
Tale of Startling
Woe.

Los Angeles. Cal. May 3O-With one
badly bloOdshot eye and a cash in
mis- forehead that gave him the appear
ance Of having been hooked up by a
COW, owen Moran arrived in Los An
geles ready to go into training for his
fight with Jack White
He had his photograph taken in
com pany with a cane and was allowed
TO tell his troubles; both of which
proceedings interested him considera-
bly,.
shoot me quick, steve" he said to
the photographer, while ! am feeling
like John D. Rockefeller. You don't
need a flash while 1 have this stick
III bet I look like Jimmie Britt with
all this scenery
As to the troubles. owen said that
the lot of English boxers in these days
AT 'ome." he said. I'VE don't get a
chawnce. over here you have TO go
about fighting these blime home
champions"
Moran says that the craze for Amer
lean fighters has become so great in
England that the home talent is prac-
ucally ignored To get d hearing, the
English fighter must come TO America
They make a hero of a fighter over
here he says, but sometimes il IS
tough on the fellow who goes up
against the local hero
In proof Of which he cited his re-
cent fights against Joe Mandot and
Charley White.
Knocked lIandot.
He says that he knocked Joe Man
dot out cold in the second round Of
their fight in New Orleans
When we began TO fight" said Mo-
ran, I saw at once that Mandot had a
bad habit of drawing back his arm
when he struck, very much as Stanley
KetcheI used TO do In the second
round ! laid for him and the first time
10 . naf fra1 On
the point Of the jaw.
He went down like a log and laid
there nine seconds before he moved
but the referee simply stood in the
corner, with his mouth gaping open.
He didn't count a lick When 10 sec
Onds had elapsed, 1 looked for the
referee to declare me the winner; but
he looked up with a start and began
counting.
As / realized 1 would have to kill
him and carry him to the funeral in
order to be allowed a decision. I didn't
try again for knockout, but simply
stood of and jabbed him.
In spite or the TACT that Il was
MandOts home town, the crowd was
so sore at the referee that they all
threw cigars and pop bottles at him"
Also Charley White.
Moran claims TO have been unfairly
treated in his fight with Charley
White
IN the second round" he said.
this fellow got his head down and
butted me like a bull He opened a
cash over my eye that they had to
take five stitches in.
I'm the ninth round I got a good
chance and slammed him an awful
crack in the stomach. He backed off
and began to grOan. 100, wait a min
ute; 90. my stummick; 90, my stun
lex
The referee asked him, Did you
get fouled?
White still doubled up, said, Yes,
I guess so; 90, my stumick.' And they
gave him the fight on a foul"
Moran will go into training at
Doyle's for his fight with Jack White.
He VIII be obliged to go very easily
until his eye thoroughly heals.

JOhnnies Dundee
and Kilbane Meet
Two Johnnies to Have Try-Out
Matches First and VIII Be
In Keen Fettle.

New York, \. Y, May 3O-JOhnny
Kilbane, the featherweight champion,
will make his second appearance in
this city on June IS, when he will bat
tie Johnny Dundee 10 rounds at the
St Nicholas rink. For his stunt the
champion will receive $4,000.
As Battling keefe says, " 'Tis soft
money"
This will be the battle of battles in
this town Dundee is credited with
being one of the few boys about here
who have chance with the champion.
A good fast boy, he also possesses the
WallOp that counts. Dundee has the
idea that he can drop the champion.
If he does then Wen have champion
in this town.
The lads Will weigh in at 122 pounds
at Z o'clock, which Will bring them in
the ring about 124-
Both boys will indulge in one battle
before the big affair. Kilbane is to
meet Tommy O'TOOle in a six round
bout at Philadelphia on June 3. and
Dundee viii meet an unknown on June
3. These bouts will put the BOYS on
edge Ever since kilbane won the
championship the Gotham fans have
been aching for a battle between him
and Dundee. Now that everything is
arranged we will hear nothing else
kilbane and his manager, Jimmy
Dunn, have arrived from Boston.
where Jimmy Walsh was given a draw
with the champion. Dunn had little to
say, except that Walsh is a native son.
Also that Moody was selected as the
referee and at Che last moment Flaherty
was substituted.

of St Louis wants to back against Ad
Wolgast for the Championship of the
world, and the Milwaukee boy has
again demonstrated his class by out
pointing the clever sOutherner 1t
was no nuke, but a cleancut victory.
Temple winning all the way and show
ing splendid form, not only in clever
ness, but also in roughing and infight-
ing. Some weeks ago 1 suggested that
Temple, who had been d sparring part
ner of WOlgasts, might yet be fighting
him for the title and don't be surprised
if the same comes true, for if the boy
takes care of himself and attends TO
his knitting he has a fine future in the
ring. AS a result of his victory over
MandOt, he has received an offer from
Hugh Mcintosh, of Australia, to visit
that country next season and enter the
big lightweight tourney, meeting the
best 1913 Founders available. His man
ager, Frank Mulkern, likes the idea
pretty well, as he believes the Austria
Ian experience would do him a lot Of
good, the same as it did Jimmy Clabby.
Temple is a tall youth for a light
weight, standing 3 feet IL inches,
but he can easily scale 133 pounds

man and fair to a fault He is also
clever and has a longer reach than
any fighter living. For a big man he is
fast on his feet and he knows how to
sidestep as well as Kid Mccoy. He has
a fairly good punch with either hand
and it viii be a surprise to me if Pal
ger ever hands him a beating; in fact,
/ look for Wells to defeat Palzer on
points. Just remember this-if Pal
Zer can defeat the Britisher decisively
he can be put down as the best white
hope in the world and capable of going
against Jack Johnson. Jim Flynn or
any other heavyweight.
Probably the tip wasn't right about
Ray Temple the Milwaukee light
weight! Temple, before he met Matty
Baldwin at New Orleans recently, was
not given lOOl1in by many, but when
he defeated the Boston boy the old cry
went up that Matty was not in shape
and that it should have been a draw.
Probably d draw would have been all
right, but just the same Temple made
the showing and no one seemed to give
him credit for the same. Then came
his battle with Joe MandOt, the south
ern champion, whom every sport south

san Francisco. Cal. May 3O.-Harry
Suter, who refused to sign his con
tract last spring because Of cut in
his salary over the year before, has
finally come to terms with the man
aSement of the san Francisco club.
Long says that Suter got in touch
with him by telegraph and stated his
desire to join the team. Suter. al
though not in professional baseball
has been keeping in condition the last
two months in Portland and ought to
be able to work right from the jump.
Jesse Baker the portsider from Chi

expected. has so far, been a disaD-
polntment. His arm hasn't been in
shape and he has been easy to hfr

good is not announced. although the
chances are that something of the
kind viii be done Suter won half Of
MS games last year winning % and
losing the same number. but he was
going very poorly the last two months
OF the season.
Some Of the fans have been declsr-
ing that Suter would improve the
chances of the club and they will now
have chance to see what he can DO.

he can administer his brOdie blow just

Both lads are going at the workouts

 Strange Prank of Lightning.

In the current Sunday school quar- terly, In the last Sindays lesson, ref erence is made to hidden treasure" discovered in excavating for the girls school building in Aintab. Turkey. The old building had been destoyed by fire: it was while excavauing for new building that a large metal pot was found which contained 1.200 silver coins about the size and value of our silver dollar The discovery was made in 1909. Many of the coins have since been sold and the receipts have helped greatly in rebuilding the school The cons were dated from 1912 to 1885. The Columbia pastors wife, Mrs. E. o. Foster, has one of these coins, which she has had made into belt pin and prizes highly. The coin seems to have been hammered into shape before re- ceiv1ng the Impress of the dies. and bears in plain figures the date of 1649. It is said that these coins can still be obtained of the American board in Hartford.
