late!r for Coulon's boxing form has
not been very good of late. He is
going to prepare, however. for his
championship battle with Kid Will
! Jams, set for July 4 in Baltimore in
earnest, and as real hard tryout
he has agreed to take on Frankie
Burns. of Jersey City, on June 16.
On the outcome of his contest with
Burns we may be able to size up his
chances with Williams. From this
distance, though. it looks as if a new
bantam champion were in sight.
@
Gunboat Smith isn't afraid to fight,
but he kind of wants to select the
men whom he would like to fight
For that he will be criticised, but he
will be able to stick around the big
end of the game longer, which is
considerable consolation. Smith isn't
anxious to fight at all, but If he
does fight, he must name the man.
The size of the purse, too, is much
mooted question with the Gunboat,
who believes he has an honest claim
to the heavyweight championship,
and therefore a right to demand
substantial price for his services.
Smith wants $1,000 for his bit for
ten-round bout in Madison Square
Garden. He will get about 30 per
cent. of the gross receipts, which VIII
be about $4,000, against an opponent
like George Rodel, who gave Smith
quite a time of 1t in their last fight.
That's some money at that, If Smith,
like some of the others who have
tackled Rodel, isn't handed a good,
sound licking"

We will have more Australian
cyclists to admire and talk about in
a few days when the three sprinters
who arrived from the antipodes yes
terday get down to racing form. The
men in question are Reggie Nc
Namara, Bob Speers and Frank
Cory. They were on the go more
than eight weeks, but they look well
and almost fit to race even now OF
this trio of Australians, who, by the
way, are surely becoming the lead
ing sprint cyclists in the world, there
is some doubt, it appears, as to who
has the most speed Mcnamara
though on all around riding, is be-
lieved to be the best man. He won
the Australian championship two
years ago, defeating Alfred Goullet
and Jackie Clark in the final for the
title. He also rode as a partner with
Clark in a six-day race in Australia
and is considered a very good man.
Some of the boys at the track say
Mcnamara is as good as Grenda If
so, he is good enough for anybody.

The sports out in Los Angeles are
making quite a fuss over the fight
billed for next Tuesday night between
AID Wolgast and Johnny Dundee.
Time was, and not very long ago,
either, that such a contest would be
looked upon in pugilistic circles as
little short of slaughter. But now,
with the once great Wolgast ebbing
his strength away in riotous living
and gambling, he is simply looked
upon as having the call in the betting
over Dundee, and no more. AID, ac-
cording to the dispatches, is 10-to-6
shot With so much advantage
weight and experience-he should be
at a prohibitive price. Dundee, how
ever, is young and strong and coming,
and he is sure to have the short-end
following that is always in evidence
when any betting is going on.

POUGHEEPSIE, n. Y, June T.
A stiff south wind kicked UP quite a
sea on the Hudson yesterday, and
the course was not fit for practise.
In spite of the rough water Coach
Rice had his Columbia crews out for
a short pull. He took them up the
river around Crum Elbow, where he
found a comparatively smooth stretch
and coached the men in body and
blade work.
Coach Conibear and his Washing
ton oarsmen expressed themselves as
much pleased with the course but
look forward to the coming of warmer
weather with some tnxlety.
The Wisconsin shells arrived yes
terday. The crews and Coach Vail
reached their training quarters in
the afternoon.

from another source-from the
Yankee viewpoint-quote Charles H.
Sabin. much-interested enthusiast.
The changes in the American team
at this late day." Mr.. Sabin declared,
were a big mistake The dropping
of Whitney and the Waterbury boys
will surely weaken a team that would
have to be surely as strong as two
years ago to win. England has not
much to fear as TO the outcome
@
Such is the situation in polo circles
today. England, with a great polo
team, is here with everything in
apple-pie order, ready to annihilate
us, and we are not only ready to be
slaughtered, but we have done our
best, goodness knows, to make it as
easy as possible for the enemy. OF
course, there is always the chance
that success will come, despite our
own efforts; but there is small use in
banking on something that seems
hopelessly lost. Almost as painful,
though, is the desire of the polo
authorities to endeavor to have the
outside element believe that nothing
is wrong on the inside and that the
shifts in the team were really at
the request of those who retired.
Without going any further, those who
know of the Whitney Keene friend
ship" know full well that Harry
Payne wouldn't step an inch aside in
a thousand years to allow Foxhall to
pass.

New York may be cruel and all that
and be in the throes of vice and
crime, but Gotham hasn't so far for
gotten herself as to lose sight of her
future citizens in the persons of the
small boys of the schools. Over in
Central Park yesterday afternoon
more than 10000 little fellows enjoyed
to their hearts content a big field
day and a large number of Manhat-
tan's prominent citizens enjoyed
themselves as the boys enjoyed it..
Theodore Roosevelt, fresh from his
latest temperance victory out West,
was there and rather to the fore
front. The colonel, as usual, was en-
thusiastic.
"The most wonderful and crafty
ing sight l ever saw" he said.
Police Commissioner Waldo was
also present, as were Vincent Astor,
General Wingate, Chief Justice
| Dwyer, Job Hedges and others. And
the boys, kings for day, felt them
/ selves as big as the biggest men there
and lorded it over and held sway
whenever the occasion arose.
Soon Newark will have it's big an
nual field meet, with thousands OF
children on view. Down at Wieden-
mayors Park next Friday and Satur-
day the public school games will be
! held. The occasion is the largest in
its way of the year and is said to be
the biggest school meet in the coun-
try. Interest is always keen in these
games and the boys train faithfully
and look forward to them for months
Girls and boys both revel in sport in
these days and the rivalry is beyond
description.
@
In order to add to the interest anc
to the desire on the part of the boys
for success, the Evening Star has do
mated a special trophy to be awarded
to the school winning the most frs
prizes. The trophy will be known a.
The Evening Star Prize" and will
be novel and rich in design. A. G
Balloon, the president of the Newark
Public School Athletic Association
was very much delighted when in
formed that the Evening Star would
give special trophy. Mr.. Balloon
said the awarding of a trophy to tn,
winner of the most firsts was a CAPT
tai idea. and did not mean that tn,
point trophy winner would be tn,
Evening Star Prize" winner. II,
also said he desired to thank the Sta
for its consideration and its interes

The refusal Of the Manitowoc author
tiles to receive a tuberculosis patient
from this county, followed by the rul
ing Of the state board of control that
there is no way by which the judges
of this county can force the authori.
ties Of other counties to recognize their
commitments of tuberculosis patients to
county sanitariums, puts an entirely diff
ferent face on the movement for the
establishment of a county sanitafium
in kenosha county and may force some
action by the county board at the No.
vember session. lf the county is to
provide care and treatment for any Of
the cases in the advanced stages of the
disease it must give all applicants for
assistance exactly the same treatment
and that can only be done in ssni-
tarium under the direct control of the
county authorities. We believe that
the people Of this county will demand
the segregation of these unfortunates
SO that they may not be a constant
menace to the health Of the entire com
munity and if the county judges cannot
enforce their commitments under the
law giving state aid to county tubercu-
losis sanitariums, they must be cared
for in their home county and that
means local sanitarium. Most of the
applicants for aid in this county will
come from the same class as the wo-
man sent home from the Manitowoc
institution but they are the class that
most need looking after and even if
the county authorities were disposed
to let the heads of sanitariums in other
counties dictate to this county which
patients should be sent to them the
whole object of furnishing this aid will
be defeated if part of the sick were
left behind to spread the disease. There
can be no further real progress in the
fight against the white plague until all
of these centers of infection are re
moved, and the people Of this county
are not likely to permit any of the
unfortunates to be Disseminated
against.

iourned without any action being taken.
Sixty people attended the meeting and
it was held by the opponents of the
plan for new building that the notice
given was not legal. At a recent meet
ing of the school directors it was de-
cided to submit the question Of building
an addition to the school to the voters
When the notice was sent out it pro-

Former Member of Council
Died at His Home on Mid
die Street on Thursday.
A SUFFERER FROM DROPsY

John Caster, fifty years Of age, and
formerly member of the common
council from the fifth ward Of the city,
died at his home on Middle street late
Thursday evening after a long illness
from dropsy. Mr.. Caster had been i'll
with the disease since last spring and
for several months his condition had
been critical. The deceased was ma
tive of Germany, but he came to this
country when boy and settled at
Watertown. He removed from Water
town to Kenosha more than thirty
years ago and had since resided in the
city. When he came to the city he
went to work for the old Head and
Grant Lumber Company and he had
spent nearly his entire life in the city
in the employ Of that company and the
Kenosha Lumber Company which sue
ceeded it. He served for two years as
a representative Of the fifth ward in
the common council and was active in
the work of the council during the
two years. He is survived by his
widow and four children.
