BY JEFF THOMPSON.

NEW YORK. Oct. 2g. - Signs are not lacking that the day Of the white hope Is near a, hand This is not due sa much 10 the improvement in rh, ability of the white heavy weights in sight. as To the natural and unavoidable deterioration of the crop oi the negro fighters who have held the center of the heavyweight stag" since Jack Johnson beat Jim Ieffries at Reno.
 For th" past two or three years there has been a quartet of negroes
 Johnson. Langtord Jeanette and McNey who had the edge on any thing in the fighting line with q white skin. Outside of Johnson. not one of them would have had a look n for championship honors in the days of Corhetr. Sharkev. Fitzsim- mons and Jeffries. but there were white eiants in those days and there arn not just now.
 Hence the superiority of the negro fighters. But the life of the fight ing man is strenuous one even HOW II requires strength. agility and youthful muscles and the years are dealing with the black quartet just as they have dealt with the great white fightcrs who preceded them
 loannette has undoubtedly gone back since he fought l.aneford a year ago. although he has not encountered an opponent formidable enough to defeat him decisiyely The men he has met lack class. He has scored a large number of quick knockouts. but most Of his victims were merely "setups" Recent. he has struck a snae on more than one occasion
 lust how good Laneford and Me Eey are at this date it is difficult to judge Lanaford was beginning to show signs of retrogression be fore h. left for Australia II" has certainly improved in the inter val. A for McNey. h" is the weak est member of the big four in any ease, and is getting on in years as well Possibly Jack Johnson would emerge from his retirement if of fered enough money and very easy victim
 II is a question too. if there are many more real fiahts in Johnson.
 II is therefore within the bounds nf probability that the next cham pionship fight will see a white heavy. weight champion.

DOG LANGUAGE IS DIFFICULT.

DUBLIN,-Professor R. J. Anderson of University college, Galway, who dealt with the so-called speech in lower animals at the meeting of the Geological section at the British association at Dundee. says the "early training of dogs, horses and other animals go far to obliterate any tendency to marked development Of original lines of thought"
 It is to be doubted, he says. wheth- CT any great advance could be made in the development of dog Ian guage."

SNOW HELPS SOME,

The snowfall on Tuesday evening was Godsend to the freighters and wood haulers. In many places the trails were absolutely bare of snow, this being especially the case on the Valdez trail. A heavier fall would not have been objected to, but those most interested are thankful for small favorS

When Robert Fitzsimmons and Pc. ter Maher were introduced at a boxing show the other day. the writ CT recalled the day they first met in the ring at New Orleans just 20 years ago. Maher was a terrific hitter and the idol of Erin's sons Fitz had whipped the lamented Jack Dempsey and was the W rld's mid dleweight champion. In the second round Maher landed a tremendous right-hand swing on Roberts jaw and knocked him clean through the ropes. The Cornishman seemed to be done for. and the referee started to count the fatal seconds. Joe Choynski. who was handling Fitz, had his wits about him, and ripping off the leg of chair he struck the gong resounding whack The ref cree, believing that the round was over, stopped counting. and Fitz was dragged to his corner. He revived quickly. and acting under Choyn- skis orders. he fought Maher at long range thereafter Maher could not reach him and received so many binding jabs in the face that when the twelfth round ended Peter said:
 "I cant go on The red-headed divvle has blinded me entirely"
 So Fitz was the winner, but Maher demanded another battle and they came together at Langtry. Texas. four years later. Maher got elkali dust in his eyes several days before the mill and was in poor shape when he put up his hands. He was put to sleep in less than two minutes when Fitz landed short hook on the point of his chin.

MAKE PROGRESS
 0N EXPOSITION

There is no question but that the magnificent site and majestic sur roundings, natural and artificial-thr hills of San Francisco sloping back and adorned with beautiful homes and resembling Constantinople will be far superior in general appear ance to any other exposition that has ever been built It will also ha the first exposition that has ever been built on the waters of the sea"
 Remarkable progress is being made by the Standard American Dredging company In raising the grade of the exposition site where the state build ings, drill grounds and live stock exhibits are to be loacted. Within d period of six days, the big dredger South Bay has pumped 30,000 yards of sand from the bay to the site and at the present time many of the signs that were erected to de note the locations for buildings that had been selected by governors Of various states. are practically rest ing on the new fill Sixty-five per cent of the fill has been completed Palm trees, weighing 4,5O0 pounds are being planted in Lobos Square in preparation for the Panama-PaC' fife International Exposition, by a squad of men under the supervision; of John McLaren, landscape engineer of the exposition
 Plans for the service building. the first structure to be erected on the Panama Pacific International expo sition site at Harbor View. have been completed It is expected tha this building will be completed by the first of the year, and many of the departments will immediately take up their new quarters.
 The senate has provided 25,010 for the repair of the historic old WaTSHlp fortsHoutn, SdWe to De eA- hibited at the 1915 fair and to re main permanently thereafter in Sar Francisco. The house turned this down. but it is expected that the Exposition company will be able to land this prize.

toriety.'
 Selfishness and jealousy are not the most dangerous foes to boxing in this state lll-adyisei friends of the game are the ones who will be to blame. They are shouting for rules which will permit decisions. That this will lead to an increase in gambling with all the attendan. evils admits of no doubt If we had decisions in New York. the Fraw- ley law would not last six minutes If fights which would arouse public opinion were permitted. the same re- suit would follow It is fortunate Q for the game here that the boxing commission recognizes the situation and refuses to be moved by the clamor of ill-advised friends of the game

PAPKE WINS FROM CARPENTER

PARIS. Oct. 23. Billy Papke. of Chicago. scored decisive vie tory over George Carpenter, the French middleweight champion. to- night in bout that lasted seventeen rounds The French champion de- cided that he had enough at the end of that period and refused to continue.
 The manager of the French cham pion. however. claims that the match does not decide the championship because Papke was overweight at 3 o'clock this afternoon, while Carpen- tier was under the limit. Carpenters immediately after the men had eighed in. but agreed that the fight should go on in order that those who had purchased tickets might not be disappointed.
 It was the hardest fight of my career" said Papke. after Car pentier. the idol of the French sporting public threw up the sponge
 It was evident from the first few rounds that Carpenter was no match for Papke. whose infighting tac tics completely baffled the French man. But he fought with great pluck and determination. At the end of the eighth round Carpenters right eye was closed After that he kept away from the American as much as possible.
 In the fifteenth and sixteenth rounds the Frenchman came back quite strongly.
 Papke opened the seventeenth with terrific left hook to the jaw, which floored and practically fin ished the Frenchman. Carpenter gamely got to his feet and man. aged to drag out the round. but ob- viously he was unable to continue and, after a brief consultation with his seconds he gave up.
 Papke receives 5000 for his end of the purse, with certain other emoluments He had to pay for felt of $l OoO to Carpenter for over weight.
 If the Frawley boxing law is re pealed at the next session of the leaislature. the sport will be crushed out completely" said a prominent Albany lawmaker the other day. "The repeal measure. if introduced, will be aimed at boxing itself not at the clubs and promoters. In short, the measure will make it a felony | 70 put on boxing gloves for contest with friend or foe. either in public or private, punishable by not less than six months imprisonment. with no alternative of a fine.
 i Persons who are laboring under | the delusion that if the Frawley law is wiped out, boxing clubs can go i back to former conditions and oper- ate under the corporation member ship law-and there seem to be some-will learn that they are sadly mistaken It will be crime. with jail sentence attached. to indulge in any kind of a contest with gloves 1 in the state of New York. The law may exempt schools and other in stitutions of learning, however. pro- vided no public or private exhibitions are held by them for revenue.
 The present boxing law has pre- vented sham and chicanery on the part of promoters. It has done away with grafting by individuals who have the enforcement of the laws in their hands. But in view of the hue and cry against the sport, it may be we'll to kill it altogether. Selfishness and jealousy are making ] trouble, also causing unpleasant no

COMPROMISE
Progressive Movement No
Part of Rep ubIican Party.

Oyster Bay, N. Y, July 16.-In ex-
pressing his emphatic disapproval
again Of the plan by which In some
states Republican and progressive pres
idential electors identical upon both
tickets shall be pledged to support the
candidate of the ticket upon which he
receives the most votes Colonel Roose-
welt made clearer than ever before his
determination that the progressive
movement should be bound by no ties
to the Republican party.
81 will acquiesce," be said, "in no
compromise whatever"
Colonel Roosevelt's position is that
his strength Is to be exerted for the
progressiyes and for them only. He Is
unwilling that there should be any
thing resembling compromise between
his forces and those which he claims
represent successful dishonesty" As
a secondary consideration, he declares.
he is averse to the scheme, because In
lining up with the Republican party he
would ALLEVIATE the independent and
Democratic progressive vote for which
he bids.
