going wild over the Chicago sensation.

him the most feared lightweight in the
game to-day.
a local promoter is after Terry Nell
son to meet Mickey Cannon here next
Wednesday night. If Terry is secured
to meet the Pittsburg boy, Eddie Han

winner.
Two news items were received this
morning concerning George Chip. One
says that Chip won't be able to box for
a long time. owing to a broken shout

sent against Nike Gibbons in New York

hands. secured In recent fights Both
expect to be able to box next week.
It's about time some of the local pro
moters were digging up a suitable op-
ponent for kid" Young, the champion
newsboy scrapper. Young has defeated
every boy he has been asked to meet
in Atlanta and is now entitled to
matches with the best of them.
Jeff Gaffney and Terry Nelson will
clash In a scheduled ten-round go In
Chattanooga tonight. This is the first
bout TO be staged there in over year.

Jimmy Grants victory over Spider"
Britt last night gives him a strong claim
to the Southern bantamweight cham
pionship. Kid Herman of New Or
leans, is also being highly touted, but
Jimmy is more than willing to meet
Herman to decide who is entitled to the
honor.
When it is taken into consideration
that Jimmy defeated Britt with his
right hand out of commission, one can
not help but praise the Chicagoan. 1t
has long been a known fact that Jimmy
carried his best wallop in his right hand
and after the second session Grant was
forced to rely on his southpaw mem

Meyer Prizes surprised fans when he
refused to quit with Eddie Walsh. Meyer

Feds Should Be Strong in 1915
Three Cities May Be Dropped

we have made a mighty hard fight
against tremendous odds-against
odds so big that few persons ever
thought we would last right up to
now. But we're here to stay-and
we'll stay a good bit longer than any
other parties who have been here be-
fore us.
1--WE mean to give the fans major
league baseball, and when they come
to our parks and see the games l
guess they will admit they are getting
it. Some of our enemies have de-
clared that our lineups will be COM
posed of 'hasbeens' and 'neverwus-
sers' That's a bit laughable.
0TT is true that we have some vet
Grams on our rosters, but they
still have two or three good years of
baseball in their systems. Long be
fore they are forced to go into the
discard many of the youngsters we
have will be ranking among the
brightest stars that ever shone on
the diamond. We have under con-
tract now some young players, here
tofore unheard of, who will prove to
be sensations in their first year out
Had we cared to sign up players
already under contract to organized
baseball we could have secured the
signatures of at least $50, and among
that number are the greatest players
in both of the big leagues. But when
we started out we announced that we
would not sign up a player who was
under contract, and we have adhered
to that rule"

orous posterity to this remarkable med
icine. The action of S. S. S. in the blood
is of absorbing interest.
One ingredient in S. S. S. serves the
active purpose of stimulating each eel
lular part of the tissues to healthy
and judicious selection of its own es-
sential nutriment
Not only this. but II from the presence
OF some disturbing poison there is a 10
cal or general interference of nutrition
TO cause boils, carbuncles, assesses and
kindred troubles, S. s. S. so directs the
local cells that this poison is rejected
and eliminated from their presence.
Then, too. S. S. S. has such specihc
stimulation on these local cells as to
preserve their mutual welfare and a
proper relative assistance to each other
In very brief time S. S. S. has the
reconstructive process so under control
that remarkable changes are observed.
Al! erupttve places heal, mysterious
pains and aches have disappeared and

ATEW YORK, Feb. 19.-The Fed
eral League circuit in 1915 will
be stronger and more compact
than the rather unwieldy one with
which the Federals will open the 1915
season.
President James A. Gilmore. of the
Federals, refuses to state definitely
just what cities will be dropped in
1915 and which new ones will be
taken in but from one of the men
close to Gilmore and the Federal af-
fairs comes the tip that Kansas City,
Indianapolis and Buffalo will be sup
planted by Cleveland, Cincinnati, and
either New York City or Washington.
The Federals just now are at work
building stands that will seat from
IS 600 to $4,000. With the exception
of Chicago, St. Louis, Brooklyn and
Baltimore, the stands being erected
are regarded as temporary structures.
AS little money as possible is being
put into the erection of these stands.
no doubt because it is planned to
abandon them next year.
uT'HE 1914 season will be something
of an experiment all the year for
u.s." said Gilmore. For many of us
il will be the first year in baseball.
But we are learning fast; we are
learning new things each day, and al
ready we have learned through the
horrible mistakes made by the organ
lied baseball people.

COMMENT
BY Ed w. Smith.

@HlCAGO, Feb. 19.-Only
matter Of 500 miles apart
is a vast difference in fistic
tastes of San Francisco and Los
Angeles, the homes of the twen-
ty-round battle and the only
places OF prominence outside of
Nevada where the boxers are per-
mitted the luxury of the Mara
thon route. The case of Jimmy
Clabby. Hammond star, is d
strong one in point. San Fran
cisco liked him immensely, and
the critics there said he was the
real wonder of the world when
he trimmed Sailor Petroskey. Jim
my then took the sailor down to
Los Angeles, and while he
trimmed him in twent'- rounds,
the critics there Immediately said
that Jimmy was the real punch
less wonder" and that he would
fail because of the absence of the
big wallop.
TT was never figured around
L here that Clabby was much of
knocker-ou at aIy stage of
his carer, and his friends did
not figure that with his extreme
cleverness he needed better than
the ordinary punch to win his
battles. The fact that he didn't
drop them for the count in four
out of FIVE of his contests didn't
initiate against his popularity
around here, for he seems TO
have just as many friends as
ever among the fans.
IT'S a biq puzzle to Eddie Nc
Goorty's friends how IT ever
came about tina. Jimmy was able
to take him twice, once in Den
yer, which was. something of A
doubtful verdict and again in
Butte, which also was open to
some question. But Clabby took
him" that's sure, and got away
with 1t fine, especially in the
Butte battle, in which Clabby
was fioored twice in the opening
round.

r IMMY GRANT, the sturdy little
Chicago bantam, stopped "Spi-
der" Britt in the seventh round
of a scheduled ten-round go. at the
Columbia Theater last night. Britt
hit the canvas six times, and at no
time did he have a chance against
the. Chicagoan.
Had not Jimmy broken his right
hand in the second round. it is doubt
full if Britt would have lasted four
rounds. Jimmy hoored Britt once IN
tn, second and fifth rounds, three
knock-out blow came in the seventh,
After the second round Grant relied
entirely on his left hand. He worked
this member Hike piston rod, and
Britt was a badly beaten fighter at
the finish.
Grants victory over Britt entities
him to matches with the best boys in
the country. Jimmy has done all
that has been asked of him, and is
to-day by far the best boy Of his
weight around here.
Two other corkingj bouts were on
the card. Meyer Prizes refused to
uuit, and for once put up a great
scrap, winning the decision over Ed
die Walsh in six rounds. Meyer made
good use of his left hand and piled up
a barrel of points.
In the opening bout of the even
ing Kid Williams and Battling"
Shepherd put up a great four-round
draw. The two youngsters fought
every minute of the time, and a
draw verdict was fair to both boys.
