SUNDAY SCHOOL TEAMS
PLAY SATURDAY AT PONCE

At Ponce DeLeon park Saturday
afternoon the two leading clubs Of
the Sunday School League will meet
in a double-header. In the absence
of Billy Smiths Crackers, fans in
large numbers are expected to pro-
vide the best crowd OF the Sunday
school season for the Saturday aft
ernoon games.
The First Baptist team, leading the
league with twelve straight victories
and no defeats, has been playing
such ball as to attract sidewise
glances from the pennant races of
the larger leagues, and is deter
mined to add two more wins Satur-
day. The S Y. D. club, in second
place, with seven victories and three
defeats, is equally determined to
break up the winning streak Of the
Baptists. Both teams will be in
cIassiest condition for the double
header Saturday which is scheduled
to begin at o'clock

By Left Hook.

I IEREs little tip for the men
who bet good con on the re-
suits OF encounters in the box
ing arena. Never stop betting on
q champion OF any class until he has
been beaten. The suggestion of such
a theme for a little fighting story is
brought up by the manner in which
the Joe Rivers supporters lost so
heavily on the Los Angeles boy in
his battle with Willie Richie, in San
Francisco, July 4 incidentally. the
idea Of it was brought out forcibiy
by some remarks that Battling Nelson
made the day after the holiday while
the famous iron man of the light
weight class was discu ssing results
and congratulating himself on having
picked six out of seven winners after
having bet personally on three of
them and failing to get down on the
one loser that he picked.
I T is a foolish thing to bet against
q champion, even if you don't like
him personally and haven't such a
high opinion OF his fistic merits, be-
cause, according to Bat Nelson. cham
pions always win a lot of battles in

WISCONSIN BOXING BILL
Is SIGNED BY GOVERNOR

MILWAUKEE,, WIS, July IS
Governor Francis McGovern has
signed the Hedding boxing bill and
the sport becomes legalized in Wis
consin the same as in New York
State.
Governor McGovern had protests
from many sources but stated that
he considered that in view Of thou
sands of petitions in favor of the
sport it was only just TO the majority
that they should be given a chance to
show that boxing under proper con-
ditions is much better than under no
law at all.
1t will now be up to the Governor
10 appoint a commission to handle
the boxing game in the State.

BRITTON REAL
OPPONENT FOR
TITLE HOLDER
By Ed w. Smith

NHICAGO, July 1S.-Not since the
days when Frank Garrard and
Martin Duffy, of this city,
looked to be pretty fair champion
ship material in the lightweight class
have the local fight fans been so
anxious TO see a Chicagoan get a
crack at the title, Neither Garrard
nor Duffy ever made good in their
day, but they were Just as highly
regarded along in the late 90s as
are Jack Britton and Packey McFar-
land, present-day Chicago champions
Both Jack and Packey have a world
of friends right here, and to say that
they have their ears to the ground
listening for some sort Of a favora bic
report from the champion on the diff
ferent propositions that have been
hurled at him is putting it mildly.
pACKBY, while not issuing any di-
= rect challenges, has let it be made
known to Richie that nothing would
oellknt aim more than to take him
on in a 20-round contest providing
the weight bars be lowered Just a
little more, say another pound, let
ing the stock yards favorite in at
135 pounds, with the scaling done
several hours in advance of the bat
ties start. With a foe Of the Nc
Farland caliber 1t is not likely that
the champion will consent at all to
any such an arrangement He in
sisted upon 1874 pounds for Rivers.
and then trimmed the Los Angeles lac
TO the queens taste, If queens have
any particular taste in such matters.
But from 1874 pounds three hours or
so before to 1876 pounds five or six
hours before is a vast gap that even
the keen Richie eye is not likely to
measure lightly
PUT the Britton case is hugely DIFF
ferent. Here is a boy who boldly
haunts this offer in the champions
face: Make the weight, any figure
that you choose" and then awaits the
answer. Now, that leaves absolutely
no loOpholes for excuse or room for
single argument. Britton simply
does not care what the poundage is,
Gays so, and there rests his case.
what will the answer be, to say moth
ing of the harvest?
MO sane man could ever accuse
Willie Richie Of cowardice. The
man who jumped into the breach with
Freddie Welch when Ad Wolgast was
taken to the hospital and fought the
English star almost to a standstill
with but a few hours notice then
whaled Ad Wolgast out of his title
and went in and slugged with Joe
Rivers at the latters own game, Is
possessed, as Bill Naughton says, of
lions heart. But Willie is a finan-
cier along with his other accom-
plishments and is not likely to enter
into any contracts that do not promise
the brightest of monetary returns.
There isn't a doubt that if some pro-
moter can see his way clear to offer
ing the right sort Of a prize for the
champion he will lend himself to the
match. Then we will see a real old
time battle between two of the great
est men that ever drew on a pair of
gloves.

BONILLA HERE; NOT
PLOTTING A REVOLUTION
Ex- President of Honduras Sur
prised at Reports-Friend
of Beltrand.

Dr Policarpo Bonila, former president
Of Honduras, who has been guest az tho
Waldorf-Astoria for several days, was the
most surprised man in New York yester-
day TO learn that he was plotting 70 re-
gain the Presidency OF the Central-Amerr
can Republic.
Reports OF political unrest have been
coming from Honduras in the last week.
They told OF plans being formulated In
New Orleans by Honduras exiles TO de"
pose President Beltrand from office. The
same reports have made Or. Bonilla the
leader OF the movement and nave men
toned General Lee Christmas, an American
filibuster as the generalissimo OF the pro-
posed movement. And all this time DR..
Bonilla has been living peaceably at ths
Waldorf, contemplating making his per-
manent residence In New York, whsTs -
plans 10 undertake the practice Of inter-
national law.
The reports connecting DR.. Bonilla are
doubly distressing to him at this time
first. because his wife, who is at Tegucl-
galpa, intends TO join him here and ne
fears that she might be prevented from
leaving the country by the revolutionary
reports, and also because he is friend
of President Beltrand. whose downfall ne
was said TO be planning. II is suspected
by the local friends Of the former Presi-
dent that It is because of his friendship
for the present incumbent that his enc
mics at home have circulated the story
about his alleged plans TO make a reVold-
ton. thereby turning President Beltrano
against him. to the political advantage OF
