We feel perfectly safe in saying that
the bill tomorrow night at the Lewis
town Athletic club will be one of the
best, if not surprising all the former
ones that has been pulled off in this
city. It is certainly going to be some
go when the local boy, Paddy, climbs
through to mix things with that Rich
ards boy. 1t is plainly evident that
Richards is a great deal of the scrap
per that Paddy is and that he likes
the give it to me and I'll hand 1t
back" sort of game. Both seem to
have been vaccinated for punishment
and they don't mind it, so you can
look for something good in that one
scrap, and it's even money in our opin-
ion. The main event will be good
one, but looks to us to have surprise
inside a few rounds, as they have met
before and each Is clever and at the
same time anxious, but not to be
caught without the punch that takes
the count. Kelly is fast and care
full fighter at all times and it will be
McCarty's effort to reach him, and
MAC" is shifty enough to get in at
most times. This will mean much to
either of these boys and 1t will be one
of the best bouts from point" view,
at the same time both reserving for
that one wallop that each of them
carry, that will mean the next 60 with
Rogers in the final elimination, and
one Of these two is going to meet him
and both want it for their own.
Hamilton News: Jack Douglas, the
Butte featherweight, refused to enter
the ring with Jerry Dalton, for their
scheduled 12-round bout at the Lucas
opera house December 81 and was dis
qualified by Referee McCafferty Of
Missoula from appearing in ring In
Montana. AS result Douglas was
unable to meet Matty Smith in Hell
ena last night and Dalton took his
place and decisively defeated the Wis
cOnsin boy.
Jack Kelly and AL Richards of Butte
arrived in the city Tuesday and are
registered at the Fergus. Kelly will
meet McCarty in the main event at
the Lewistown Athletic club on the
night Of the 14th, which promises tc
be the fastest that has yet been put
on here. Both of the boys are in fine
condition and will be worth seeing.
Philadelphia, Jan. 5.-Johnny Xii
bane of Cleveland, featherweight
champion, knocked out Eddie Moy OF
Allentown tonight in the fifth round Of
a scheduled six-round boxing contest
Both boys weighed 1876 pounds.
Steve Ketchel, the Chicago light
weight, who met Phil Knight in this
city last summer, is now a hero, as
he rescued maiden in Chicago ant
saved her from being struck by {
heavy auto truck. The Chicago Rec
ord-Herald has the following to ga!
of the incident:
"Steve Ketchel, the lightweight
fighter, saved the life of Miss Heller
Kerger of 1881 Southport avenue thi
afternoon. Miss Kerger was CROSSING
Franklin street at Madison street thi
afternoon and in the darkness faile'
to notice a big truck of the Chicag'
Telephone company which was passin
at the time. She stepped directly II
front of the truck. Ketchel, who wa

just behind the girl, made Tying
tackle and whirled both himself and
Miss Kerger to safety, the front OF the
truck striking Miss Kerger's hip as
the pair fell past it. Miss Kerger was
bruised, but was able to continue on
her way unassisted.'
Jack Doyle, the old Oriole catcher
and White Sox scout, started some
thing when he announced through the
Chicago Record-Herald that he had
scheme to solve the problem OF pass
ing batters Intentionally. The publish
ing of Jacks ideas started a bunch OF
fans figuring, and as result B. b.
Johnson, president of the American
league, has been besieged with letters
offering suggestions.
The American league chief yester-
day announced that he had perused
closely all the offerings, but none will
solve the tangle. Faults are found
with each and every one, but Johnson
will welcome suggestions looking to-
ward remedy. The big thing for am
bilious fans to consider is that there is
no possible way to determine beyond
a doubt whether a pitcher Is really
wild or not attempting to put the ball
over the plate.
Doyle's suggestion was that the
question of being slipped base on
balls should remain optional with the
batter-that Is, if the pitcher ex-
pressed desire to rid himself of a
particular batter in this fashion. The
trouble is that the pitcher Is not tell
ing such things. Moreover, the pitch
er might be wild and the batter de-
mand ball through the heart of the
plate. What If the pitcher couldn't
comply with the demand.
Another thing that Doyle thought
batter refused transportation he re-
quest the pitcher to give him one ball
in four at which he could swing. In
the event of the finger refusing, the
umpire to deliver the order, he would
be subjected to fine. However, it
would be impossible to determine
whether or not the mound artist actu-
ally refused to groove" one.
The letters received by Johnson are
faulty. There is no way to Judge a
pitcher. He might be fined, but it
would be an injustice because nonof-
| tenders would suffer. Bases on balls
might be eliminated entirely, but what
would become Of the promising young
pitchers who break into the big show
with lot of stuff but are deplorably
shy on control. They would be help
less and useless during the period of
| year, or more, in which they might
solve the mysteries of putting the ball
| in sacred territory.
There is no reason why the rule
should be tampered with. If pitcher
slips pass to batter Intentionally
the pitcher stands the biggest chance
of suffering. The batter loses nothing
outside of the chance to make a hi
and the odds for this are against him
Few if any writer's are in favor Of
ruling out the intentional pass. The
biggest cry against it is that the pub
lie likes to see famous sluggers like
Cobb, Speaker Collins and others hi
when they appear. They don't want
to see them walk.

ball PLAYERS, like
ACTORS, ARE A VERY
SUPERSTITIOUS LOT

Jimmie Sheckard, formerly with the
Chicago Cubs, but this year manager OF
the Cleveland American Association
team, is a believer in signs and omens.
He always goes to bat in certain way.
The same holds true OF his manner of
walking to and from the clubhouse be-
fore and after a game.
Frank Chance is considered the most
superstitious leader in the major leagues.
The worst thing he can conceive is TO
see the score board during a game. II
ne accidentally secs the score luck is
sure to change. He has had scoreboards
in two different ball parks moved so
that he could not see them from his
bench.
Clark Griffith. manager of the Wash
ington Americans, is said to be the
least superstitious Of the managers, yet
lif he dreams that a pitcher is batted
hard that pitcher is kept out OF the
game for a few days He says he isn't
superstitous but he can't afford to take
chances.
Most every ball player is supersttious

empty barrels is good luck, load of
barrels filled with anything is mlucky.
a load Of loose hay is lucky, and a load
of bailed hay is unlucky.

"CRIFF" SAYS REFUSAL
TO Obey ORDERS LOST
PENNANT FOR YANKS

players are often OF the opinion
that they know more than their man
agers," said Clarke Griffith. while in
camp at Charlottesville recently, "and
simply on this account New York
lost a pennant 10 Boston in 1904. At
that time / was handling the reins
for the Yankees" The story, as told
by the Old Fox, resulted from one
question:
"Of what value is brains in base
ball?"
"In the fall OF 1904 New York and
Boston we're running neck and neck
for first place. So close had the
teams been that on this day TO which
Ihave reference the pennant was to
be decided.
1T was either Boston OF New York,
and as fate would have IL the sched-
ule brought us together. I sent In
Jack Chebro, who at that time was
one Of the greatest pitchers in base
ball. big" Bill Dineen worked for
Boston. and when he was right had
few superiors. Il is the same Dineen
who is umpiring in the American
League now. and he often recalls the
incident
well, from the outset the contest
became a pitchers battle. Dineen and
Chesbro we're at their best, and the
game went six innings without a
score. In the seventh Dineen began
to weaken. With two out, Kleinow,
who was catching Chesbro. singled.
Chesbro walked. as did the next three
batters. Dineen had forced two runs
over the plate and he was unnerved.
Every man that went to the bat had
instructions to wait to ''em' out

was also sent up with the same or
ders. But he thought he knew more
than his manager. He did not even
look over the first ball, but banged
away at It. thinking, perhaps, he
might clean the bases. What hap
pened? Well, he rolled weakly to the
| first baseman and the side was re-
tired. There Is no telling how many
men Dineen would have walked.
"The Boston team got TO Chesbro
in the eighth for a pair of runs that
tied the count But the toughest part
of the game was in the ninth. when
Chesbro wild-pitched in the. winning
run. Boston beat us 3 TO 2 that day
and with that game went the pen
