England, was never really recognized as the real champion of the British Empire. He will always be classed as near champion. He certainly gave our John L. the hardest battle of his life, at Chantilly, France, which was declared draw after a struggle of thirty-nine rounds. Mitchell also showed considerable class when he first met Sullivan in Madison Square garden. by flooring our big champion in Eh<a second round. The English man ct that time was really only a welterweight, and certainly surprised the New York fans by his clever dodg- ing and ring generalship. But when he got in front of Jim Corbett it was another story. Years of high life had entifc American title holder, who knocked him into dreamland in three one-sfded rounds.
 Is 1t not almost a sin to call that present master of the manly art Packy Mcfarland, a near champion? :? it, and lacks a few pounds when at his best (140) to be a, welter. So there you are. He is the most scientific boxer at present and without a title. Maybe he does not care about any, as 1t was with lion-hearted Pete Mo boxing artists that have passed and gone.
 But we ought to give most of the near champions whole lot of consid- eratton. Many of them have fought harder and more often than the real Champs" There is Jack (Twin) Sul- l1van, who has been banging, away in the ring for the past fifteen years and is still going. Look up his rec ord of some 300 battles, more or less, battles, where he has shown great gameness and cleverness. I think his ring record is far better than most champions. Yet he has no title and probably never will. But, oh, my, what 8 lot of milling he has done since he started as a boxer in 1898. There are. many other near champions who should not be forgotten. They may not stand out so strongly in the lime light as the real title-holders, but they certainly deserve a whole lot of credit for the hard milling they have done in the roped arena

OF BALL GAME THAT MADE
 DAKOTA FAMOUS

Today is the twenty-second anniv- ersary of the ball game that made North Dakota famous.
 By reason of that historic contest the names of Fargo, Grand Forks and Devils Lake are known 10 hundreds of thousands who otherwise would have lived and died in utter ignor- ance of the existence of those cities.
 It was a great advertising stunt that was pulled off on July IS, 1891, when the Fargo and Grand Forks teams of the Red River Valley league played a twenty-five inning score1ess game at Devils Lake, N. D. The players who participated in that pis- time have long since vanished from baseball ken, and the league is dead and buried and forgotten but the fame of that game still goes clattering down the corridors of time.
 Never again, perhaps, will the fans lamp such @ score as this:
 Grand Forks 0 0 0 0 0 o 0 0 0 0 0 co.
 Fargo 0 o o 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 co.
 The long distance record establish d by this contest stood until May 31, 1909, when the Bloomington and De-

eatur, H., clubs of the Three-I league played twenty six innings at Bloom ington, H., Decatur finally winning to 1.
 The Grand Forks-F Fargo clash still stands, however, as the longest run less game in the record book.
 Other extraordinary long contests include the following:
 American League, at Boston, 19O6- Philadelphia 4, Boston 1, twenty-fou1 innings.
 Pacific Coast League. at sacramen- to, 1911-Sacramento I, Portland 1 twenty-four innings.
