Foreigners Now Coming Here
To Get Fancy Fight Purses
Things Are Changed From What They Used To Be When the
American PugIsts Travelled Abroad tor Big Receipts.
Fighters Are Killing the Game

1t was all the rage a few years
ago for American boxers to invade
England and pick up the loose change
over in the tight little isle, but now
the conditions have changed; it is the
English fighter who seeks the coin
on this side. The big purses being
offered by promoters in New York
and other places have attracted the
foreigners and they are anxious to
get some of the soft money" Matt
Wells, the lightweight, got taste of
it, and Bombardier Webs, the white
hope among the heavies, got still
more of it and is coming hack for
more of it this fall. Freddy Welsh,
the former British champion light
weight, has been picking up the coin
for several years, and Jem Driscoll
the featherweight champion, had some
of it and is now coming back for
more. Owen Moran also had his peck
cts well filled. Sid Smith, the BAN
tam, was one failure, as he got away
before having a chance to be INTRO
duced properly. Now comes Jack Har-
TlSOIl, the he" LiluulS"elSuI CHdIl-
pion, and Eddie Morgan, the bantam
weight, from England, looking for
glory and greenbacks. Of the two.
Morgan looks like probable winner,
as he has beaten some of the best
bantams OH the other side and is
highly touted by all the sporting crit
les. Harrison got into the champion
ship class when Jim Sullivan gave up
the belt. Harrison is a husky look
ing chap and has put up some credit
able fights, but he hardly classes WITH
Eddie McGoorty and Jimmy Clabby in
point of science. They have clever
manager in Jimmy Johnston, and that
may help them a lot. Another good
youngster who is over here from Eng
land is Johnny Hughes, the bantam.
He has had 125 fights and has won
eighty-three by the knockout route.
One of his wins was over Charlie Ee-
deux, the sensational French. bantam
weight, who is also coming over here.
With the coming of the British
fighters will be several French box
ers. Louis De Ponthieu, the light
weight, is already here, and it is eX-
pected that Henri Pet, the light
weight, who was obliged to retire
two years ago and enter the army,
may return to the States soon. Char

Maui Takes The Odd Game And
Goes Home With Championship
Tony Medeiros Batted Hard While Errors Contribute to to
Score in Favor of Valley Isanders-vsitors Show Their
Superiority Over Local Team

The Maui ball team, accompanied
by a triumphal escort Of Joys, carry
ing Victory, spelled with a cap" V,
took steamer for the Valley Isle this
morning The visitors are carrying
home a large amount Of Honolulu
bacon, and left thoroughly pleased
with themselves and things in gen.
eraI.
Maui took the odd game of the ball
series yesterday afternoon, and q very
odd game it proved to be. ANY team
that can hang a 8 TO 4 defeat on the
J. A. Cs. with Tony Medeiros offici-
ating on the slab is going some, and
that's what the Mauites did yesterday
They went still further, and pounded
Mr.. Medeiros SO hard that he retired
from the bex after six innings, minus
his smile, with eight hits chalked up
against his delivery. Henry Chilling
worth tried to stem the tide, but the
visitors had their batting clothes on
and garnered a couple of hits and
another run for good measure.
IL was Maui's game after the fourth
inning, when three runs came in. That
gave the Valley Islanders a to 3
lead, and it was apparent that they
were out to win, and would probably
annex game and series. Somehow,
they had no respect for MedeiroS
shoots and slants, trying him out with
a double in the second, and then Civ
ing the ''all together boys" signal in
the fourth and whanging out three
two-baggers and a clean single. II
was terrible.
This swatfest was partly due to
Zerbe's troubles in the sun field, for
a couple of flies to his territory could
have been gathered in had he been
able to locate the sphere. AS it was,
he lost sight of the ball in the sun on
both occasions, the result being that
before he could retrieve it couple
OF sacks had been taken by the rum
ner s.@
Foster Robinson was touched for
six. hits, but he was never in trouble,
and seemed able to use his head as
well as mis- arm. He had good sup
port, and also d team behind him that
could bat in more runs than the other
fellows could make. All Of which fill
ed Mr. Robinson with confidence and
helped his pitching. az
The Japanese made single runs in
the second, third, fourth and ninth,
while the visitors seemed to fancy
their tallies in punches of three. They

Tim McGrath was an indulgent per-
son, and he had to be to properly
manage Tom Sharkey.
Tom had many fine qualities. He
could see a freckle on the back of an
adversarys neck-and hit it; he could
look. right through the retina of an
opponents eye and see what the brain
was planning by way of an attack;
but Tom simply couldn't see print.
There was something about the
printed and written word that baffled
Sharkey, and if the language of the
human kind had been all tied down
to one letter *" it would have been
just the same to the sailor.
AT that Tom couldn't get along
without correspondence, and this is
where he rung Tim in.
"Bedad," said Tom, in enthusiasm
to some friends one day, Indication

life. Newspapers is just good fer

and that helps some
Sharkey delivered himself of his
idea on education and went on his
way rejoicing. But the fellows could
not understand just what Tom was
driving at.

COBB Will ASK
FOR A BIG
d
RAISE

Ty Cobb's three-year contract with
the Detroit club expires this season.
Before the Tigers start out In 1913
Tyrus must sign another contract and
the new salary figure named by the
player will undoubtedly make the
most interesting bit of off-season gos-
sip. I'LL.
The salary the Detroit club is pay.
ing to Ty this year and also for the
two preceding years is $4,000 season
in real money. To sign a new con-
tract the Georgian, it is said, will de-
mand the largest salary figure ever
named by a man in. baseball, player
or manager. He refuses to say what
it will be, but it is reported that he
will want between $4,000 and SIS, 700
to continue his career as a Tiger.
Cobb realizes that he is now in his
prime and that the next two or three
years will mean continuation of the
same quality of playing, so if he is
everto better his income, now Is the
psychological moment.
Greatest in the Game. nh
There is no question that Cobb is
the greatest player today, and has
been the peer of players for at least
the last three years. There is also
no question that Cobb is the most
valuable man in the game from the
business end. He brings more money
into the Golfers of club than any
individual in baseball or any team in
the American League.
Connie Mack says Detroit, losing
team, is constantly drawing better
than the Athletics, although the Phil
adelphia team is Juggling a worlds
championship over , the American
League circuit, and recognized as the
best nine-man team ever produced in
Bans organization.
Every club in the league realizes
the value of Cobb as a drawing card.
He means extra dividends for seven
clubs besides the one he plays for.
People who care little for baseball and
many who have no particular interest
in any team go to the park when De-
'troit plays for no other reason than
to see Tyrus perform.
He is the greatest press agent in
the game. There is no one engaged
IN entertaining the public as widely
advertised as he is.

NJ ALEER WANTS

Interest i'll Boston was never

with enthusiasm over the work of our
team. the Giants are more popular

e. Baldwin made beautiful throw
from short left to the plate in the
first, cutting off a run by Chilling
worth.
1t was disappointment to the fans
that "Sox" Cummings, the shoeiess
wonder, didn't cover the second sta
ton as advertised.
Markham played fine game both
at third and short yesterday, but he
made one slip-up. He didn't even try
to knock down Balls bounder in the
fourth, that he might have cut off had
he been faster with his feet.
The Japanese changed their entire
ontfield in the fourth, Zerbe going
from right to left, Walker from left
to center, and Akana from center to
right.
Too bad that Barney Joy didn't get
a chance to pitch against Maui.
WheE Chillingworth relieved Me-

Markham swung over to short, and
Ross went into the game at the third
corner.
