ANNIVERSARIES ti-
 OF RING BATTLES

1899-Peter Maher knocked out Joe Kennedy in second round at New York. Joe was a California giant, who had developed his muscles as a longshoreman, and westerners looked upon him as a coming champion of the heavyweights. Joe whipped Gus Ruh- lin few months before he went East to tackle Maher, and, as Gus had fought a draw with Maher, the Coli fornians expected that Peter would be equally easy for their hero. Such didn't prove to be the case, however. In the first round Kennedy, who was very clever boxer, made old Peter look like selling platter pitted against a thoroughbred. The New York fans were all excited, and agreed that Ken nedy was all the Californians claimed for him, and then some. In the second chapter Joe started in blithley to put the finishing touches on the groggy son of the ould sod. He started a blow that was backed by the best of intentions, but Peter also let loose a wallop at the same instant, and con- nected with Joe so forcefully that the looming champion" might have had a thousand counted over him before he anne to. That healthy wallop from Peters fist put a quietus on Kennedy's championship aspirations. Later he became a sparring partner for Jef- fries, but that was the heighth of his fame.

Meriden Boy Held
 Up As Model Kicker
 By Charley Brickley

The Boston Globe publishes a pic ture of Jimmy Fitzpatrick. the Meri- den. boy who is shining as a kicker in the workouts of the Boston college football eleven, and has the following nice things to say about him:
 James J. Fitzpatrick, the best prospect in the ibackfeld so far was only allowed a short session in the scrimmage, as he bruised his hip a few days ago and Brickley wants him to be in the best of shape by Satur- day. Fitzpatrick has ben bunting the ball more than fifty yards regularly and is besides an lexpert passer with the left hand, so he may be counted upon to do a good lot in the SCOT ing.
 He is a product of Meriden. Conn.,, High, where he was halfback on a team that scored more than 450 points In a season nd was not scored on. He was a good ki> ker then, besides being first rate in carrying the ball and a

Princeton Youngster Kicks 16 Field Goals
 In Practice Session

Lake Minnewaska, N.' Y., Sept. 23- Included among the arrivals at the Tigers lair in the mountains last evening was Alex Wilson, Captain of the Yale football eleven last Fall. The former Yale gridiron star is visiting his three brothers at the Princeton camp Tom Wilson is assisting Speedy Rush with the linemen. Marion Will son, another brother, is out with the squad, and probably will be first string end this year. The youngest of the quartet, Kenneth, is tutoring at Lake Minnewaska, and will enter Princeton this fall.
 The scrimmage- yesterday afternoon lasted over an hour. The Varsity, with a patched up backfield. had little trouble in scoring on the scrubs. Billy Moore made several long runs through an open field. Moore is also develop ing into somewhat of a drop kicker, and in practice yesterday morning kicked sixteen out of possible twenty goals from the thirty-yard line.

 'The Hour of Temptation'' deals with the revenge of. woman whose soul has been dragged in the dust by a man she put all her trust in, and who in later years seeks vengeance on his daughter, only to find herself at the end of the play the same noble hearted woman she was when the story commenced. The Prologue and three acts carry one thoi-ugh scene after scene of intense interest, so that at times the audience hold their breath waiting for what is next to transpire. There are no dull mo- ments, every action is well timed, and thrill after thrill, surprise after sur prise follow each other in such pid succession that one is held in thrall- dom throughout the evening. The play is headed by the brilliant young woman, Eleanor Montell, who as an emotional actress is second to none at the present time, before the footlights and here charm and magnetism Is such that the audience loves her from the moment she enters to the fall of the curtain. An excellent supporting act has been furnished which includes William Morris, Clyde Bates, c. R. Sage, John D. Lorraine, Charles B. Ross, Ella Morris, Marguerite von Reese, Roma Lauri, and John Martin. The staging is up to the standard of high priced productions the va cbt scene in the second act standing out as an elaborate piece of stagecraft and the illusion is so strong that one can imagine one self in the deck of real vessel.

Throwing Bottles at
 New York Clubs May
 Stop All Boxing Bouts

New York, Sept. 23-Throwing pop bottles and other things that may come handy into the ring threatens to become a habit. Last week at the Empire A. c. a small riot occurred when the rowdies in the gallery be- gan to hurl missiles of all kinds into the ring. Tine other night at Phila- delphia the same thing happened. During the bout between Joe We'll ing and Sammy Robideau the latter did so much cnnching that the spec tators showed their resentment by herhng things at the fighters.
 This species of rowdyism is some thing new at fight clubs. Hitherto the practice of hurling pop bottles has been confined strictly to baseball games. Baseball may be able to stand that sort of thing and survive but the much maligned sport of box ing will never be able to do so.
 Evidently the practice is catching, and unless serious steps are taken to check the evil at once it will become so common that the authorities will be compelled to take action. The Empire A. C. where the trouble oc- cured last week, may never recover from the blow. Several crack box CTS who were to be matched there have refused to appear. They say they cannot take chances of being assaulted.
 Those who occupied ringside boxes during the bombardment are not like ly to take any more chances at that club, and it. will be no surprise if it is forced to suspend operations In the long rum it might be best for the game if the clubs located in the tougher sections of the city were wiped out The daAger is that no distinctions will be made when the next reform wave comes along.

THE sELIGMANs.

The first of the Seligmans, of the famous New York banking family, was Joseph, who was born in Ger many S7 years ago today. He came to America at the age of 19 and went to Pennsylvania, obtaining a position as cashier in a coal mine at a salary of $400 a year. His younger brothers, James, who died last month, and Will jam, followed Joseph to America in 1899. After working at various jobs the brothers decided to become ped- dlers, and went to Bethlehem and enant their savings for stocks of cheap s-,elry. Another brother, Jesse, soon -.,sned them, and, after a successful career as peddlers, Joseph opened a store in Greensboro,s-Al Other stores were opened by the brothers, and in 1s46 Joseph and James opened an importing house in New York. After the Civil War they went into the banking Business in New York, and other brothers established branches in London and Paris. The immense for tunes made by the brothers were based on the capital of $1o0 which Jo- seph took with him to America.

It Nis rare treat that the theatre goers of Bridgeport have in store for them when ''The Hour of Temptation" comes to the Lyric Monday night. This is a new drama from the pen of Leo Morrison, whose dramatization of .Three Weeks caused such a sensa-

An interesting ,sidelight on his play was his appearance last Monday with the Harvard squad where he was taken by Brick1ey, who was at Soldiers' field, to tune up the Crimson kickers.
