San Francisco seems to have taken up the cudgels for Abe A-taH The San Franciscan has never before been popular in his home town. and it is likely the usual sympathy for the underdog together with d spirit of opposition to whatever is done in Los Angeles that has created inc feeling he was worsted.
 While il is seemingly true that Referee Eyton was carried away by the partisanship of the crowd in favor of Kilbane, you can read be tween the lines Of the interviews.
 Wolgast. for example, says il was a close bout. although he didn't be lieve the title should have changed hands on the outcome
 Andy Gallagher, although criticts ing the referee, admitted that he had seen Attell in much better con tests. Gallagher didn't say that he thought Attel had gone back, but intimated that his performance could have been improved upon.
 Photographs of the match during its progress have been received and they don't altogether bear out Attell's claim that Kilbane was holding from start to finish. Further. the then champion looks to be a mighty tired chap.
 In spite of that defeat, there is

July by special steamship. and on the way to our winter quarters at FIagler Bay We shall lay in our SUD- ply of walrus and bear meat and take aboard our dogs. As soon as winter quarters have been estab- lshed We shall send the ship home.
 The work of breaking in the new men, and of getting ourselves hard. cned for the real work to come in the spring, will begin at once. We shall start by taking short trips with the Sledges. working them and our provisions gradually toward Cape Thomas Hubbard where the dash to trocker Land is to begin.
 For at least twelve days out of the month in the Arctic winter there is brilliant moonlight. and those days will be utilized for sledging and con. diUoning ourselves.
 From Cape Thomas Hubbard, where we start out onto the ice that affords Us our chance to work across the 1@0 miles of water to Crocker Land, We shall take ten sledges with eight dogs 10 the sledge and each sIedgo loaded with 300 pounds of provisions

 KELLER PICKS WINNERS.
 Willie keeler declares that the two greatest pitchers he has faced in his long diamond career are Amos Rusie the ve-aran now in Seattle. and Ed Walsh. Willie says that although he has gone through an entire sea son without whiting, these fellows caused him to swat the ozcne twice in one game on different occasions.
 PEOLI Ohio. March 3. This little Buckeye hamlet. lost behind the Tuscarawas hills. is best identified as the home of Denison Tecumseh "Cy" Young ball player. farmer. au- thor and sportsman. Peoli doesn't occupy a place on the ordinary map. but the grand old veteran of twenty, two major league summers has win ter mail addressed there, and he is not ashamed of it either.
 II will be Young's twenty-third year in the major leagues. but the great pitcher who, with Bill Dineeu. snatched a worlds championship away from Pittsburg in 1903. cant see anything significant in that. He looks hale and hearty and there is not trace of soreness in the great right arm that has been the object of his tenderest care for these many years.
 II seemed pity to bore Cy with baseball talk at a time when he was busy in the barnyard with his sheep
 "I am not worrying about my fu- lure in baseball" laughed Cy, as he opened the barn door in order that three hundred of his woCly pets could scurry into the sheep pens
 You see" he added. I'm just like any ordinary pitcher There are days when 1 may not be just right. have had such days through my whole career. But when I am right am as good as ever. My arm is not sore, and l am as good constitu. tiOnally as ever.
 'I have been blessed with a pret. ty good right arm, and l have tried to take the best of care of it. My system of conservation has been based on nothing more than com mon sense. I haven't had it worn out through useless massaging and rubbing after games. Some day it may go back on me, but that time has not come yet"
 'Mathewson says he hopes to beat your record of 300 odd games won. yentured a visitor.
 More power to Matty," laughed Young. But he must not take it for granted that l am done yet. expect to win many more games"
 '1 love the old game" concluded Cy, and I don't mind talking about it, although, like all other players, must shy away from arguments and discussions during the season. When ball players love for the game ceases then he ceases to be a ball player. I feel the thrills of every game at this late day just as I felt them as a kid on the lot over yon der"

Will Dash To New Land
 Discovered By Pearv


NEW YORK. March 22. - With George Borup and only two or three other white men, Donald B Me Milan, Peary's assistant in the dash 'o the Pie, will start for the farth- est North in July. 10 be lost to civ ilization for two years.
 On their great dash to the un- chartered region which Perry sighted and called Crocker Land. luxuries will be impossible. The dash will last from the first of next February until the first of May and they al ways must face the possibility of being cut off by open water in he spring and forced to suffer or starve 10 death.
 They will have two meals a day, always the same Their breakfast will be experimentation of one quart of tea. eight ounces of crack CTS and eight ounces of pemmican.
 MT. McMillan thus describes his anticipated trip:
 There are great scientific prob lens to be solved by this expedition. If We are able 10 determine derin- itely the existence and area and characteristics of Crocker Land. if we can put if on the map and add it's vast area 10 the known land of the world our trip will have been worth while
 Will Study Tides.
 Tn addition. We hope that our discoveries will have direct bear ing on the study of tides. and as such prove of great value at Washington.
 We may be able 10 discover the breeding place of the Grant goose. which has never been found. Ir is highly probable that we shall find new species of animals.
 We expect to find the remains of Eskimo encampmcnts. and, if Crocker Land runs as far south as some believe il does, down as far as the seventy-seventh parallel il fs even possible that We may find a new tribe.
 The whole history of the north ern country shows that a some time due to conditions of cold probably, the tribes that lived far north were driven southwark leaving traces of their encampments on the way. That same thing may have forced The tribes out of Crocker Land, too. and their descendants may be mingled with the Eskimos that now inhabit Etah

One of the really humorous bits .. HaiIisric press work has come f.. Iighr fhfs c.k. It's a three-page '.er furnished free of charge to a..raorkad newspaper men, and has .a d Git. inc Flynn-Johnson match. No name is attached or any intima- tion as To the contributor, but it looks very much as if fl might come from the fertile brain of one Jack curI.y. who is acting in the dual capacity of manager of Flynn and prmorer of ,he fight.
 ~lf Flynn has no chance in his coming battle" the epistle starts. why did Flynn and his manager make he match?"
 And having set about the query. The same writer proceeds to pro- bound he answer or answers.
 NO, for a losing end" he says. -lor tae conditions are so framed U is the biggest kind f gamble whether there will be a losing end of sufficient size to pay training l expenses
 AS 10 that part of the answer. Cwley has already announced that any one of the several places would willingly guarantee $1O0,OOO for the match Granting Johnson the $3OOOO that he demands. there would still be cigar money and the like left Flynn and Curley out Of the balance of $7o,000
 "Flynn's faith in himself is abid- ing goes on the story. He infects others with his confidence"
 Which causes one to wonder whether Flynn had any of that same confidence before he took an easy tumble before the Boston black in one round
 And so that press story goes on and OH, in an effort, presumably. to inspire the reader with that same confidence that is supposed to exist in the childlike heart of Jim Flynn.
 RUBE STILL ON A BONUS.
 Pitcher Rube Wadell of Minneap- olis has affixed his moniker to one of the most novel con- tracts signed in the association By nf Drh h1 will receive S10 bonus a week dur ing the playing season. If he does not drink he will receive his salary in a lump at the end of the year.

Will Take Sounding.

All the way across the water we shall take deep sea soundings, and our discoveries along this line are expected 10 be extremely important.
 As soon as We reach Crocker Land We shall split up. One group will go northward, dilineating the coast line Another will go south, and q third will push inland. making observations and discovering every thing possible.
 'Peary found the trail of fox when he was only loo miles from he Pole and we are confident that We shall find musk oxen, caribou, foxes and Arctic hares If We only do, then there will be some relief from The monOtony of our provis- ions, but We are not banking on it.
 The main object of our whole expedition is to be the investigation of Crocker Land. of which We hope to be able 10 get news back to civil ization in the fall of 1913.
 Then if we have been success ful. We shall push into the interior of Greenland. which no man has yet explored. Men have been in Green land TO be sure-Peary on the extreme north and Manson through the south. But We plan to work 300 miles into the interior"
