Grand Rapids, Mich. Anderson's past
record makes it certain that Welsh
will have to go at. top speed all the
time, not only to win, but to keep
from losing.
For Anderson, though little known
throughout the country, is one of the
very top layer of the lightweight di-
vision, and has a string of knock
outs to his credit that sounds i'm
pressive. He has dropped Sammy
Trott seven times, and Paul Sikora,
no SLOUGH of a fighter, was put out
before he knew a fight had begun.
Tommy Gary, Harry Donohue and
Jerry Murphy are a few more who
have met disaster against Anderson.
Patsy DrouiIIard, the Canadian
lightweight, failed to hold his own
with the Indianapolis boy.
Anderson, though he can easily
fight at 1873 pounds, is built along the
lines of a middle through the should
ers and chest. He carries a terrific
driving punch in his thick arms, and
is fast enough to plant the blows eff
fectiveIy.
Jimmy is short, being only five feet
two inches tall. That can work either
as an advantage or a drawback for a
pugilist, but Anderson turns it to his
own account and opponents find him
difficult man to connect with. At
the same time, he is fixed to do some
terrific body punishment.
This fight has not been receiving
great attention, mainly because An
derson is little known among the big
fellows of the game. Manager Sui
Ivan declares Jimmy will be well adj
vertised after this battle, as he will
give Welsh the fight of his life.
Willie Richie is said to have signed
to meet Freddie Welsh in New York
the night of March II in ten rounds.
Willie will not come east until a
couple of weeks before the fight.

Petrograd. (via London). Man 22.-
The firing of between 100000 and

on the comparatively short front north
of Przemysl. in Galicia. gives some
dea of the extreme violence of the
operations along the a river front.
by means of which the Germans hope
to establish themselves firmly on the
right a n of the river. Into this small
area the Germans are said to have
crowded 1000 field guns in the closest
formation ever seen in battlc-being
for uch an extent of territory.
Four days of this terrific artillery
fire enabled the Germans to occupy on
the right bank of the San 20 miles Of
the 10O-mile course of the river be-
tween PrZemysl and Sandomir. The

ity Of the heavy German formation.

by Russian army officers to have pre-
vented the Germans from executing
which might threaten the
Russian flank. Although the Germans
occupy a portion of the right bank Of
the liver, the main defenses of the San
appear to be still secured.
The Austro-German force which
made it's way across the river is at
tempting a movement southwark to en-
circle Przemysl, but as yet this aneu
yer has not been developed sufficiently
to threaten the fortress from the east.
Bombardment of Przemysl from the

flicting serious damage. The fortress

Four Days in a Well.

In Georgia a colored man,employed
by a doctor to do general chores has
a habit of going off hunting for a few
days without giving any notice Of his
intention, SO the other day when he
did not show up, no inquiries were
made. But this time he was hunting
for help. While passing through a
field at night he fell into an old un-
covered we'll. forty feet deep. He
could not climb out, SO he passed the
night yelling for help. The next day
he yelled some more, but no help
came. Fortunately the we'll was dry,
so he got sleep. but his situation was
sufficiently desperate. 1t was on the
afternoon of the fourth day that some
laborers heard a faint Hello" and
tracing the sound rescued the man
from his queer prison. He looked
weak, but was not bodily injured, and

P~etrograd. (via London). May %
An official statement referring to the
recent fighting in the Carpathiar
mountains was issued here today and
reads:
"In the fighting of the past three
weeks. since the beginning OF the op-
erations of the enemy In the Carpa-
thians, their losses on May 10. May IL,
May IL and May 13. during which the
fighting lost some of its intensity, av-
eraged 10000 a day. On the other II
days they were much heavier, especial
ly during the period between May Is
and May 19. when they amounted to
several times 10000 daily.
Certain regiments of the enemy
have been reduced to a single company.
Their total losses during this period,
including 10000 prisoners captured by
us. ave undoubtedly reached to one"
fourth or perhaps one-third of their
total strength.
The score of guns lost by the enemy
In this fighting is as nothing compared
with their total number, but it must
be born in mind that owing to the lack
of horses nj the scarcity of projec-
tiles-between 1000, 900 and 5000, 900
shells having been expended by the
enemy during this period--the enemy
left behind ON old positions several
hundred guns. This circumstance has
helped to equalize the odds. which were
in favor of the enemy"
