stump and lighted the fuse, and was
just turning around to leave when, for
some reason or other, the fuse burned
so rapidly that the charge went off

against a barbed wire fence with great
force. His arm was broken and he
was badly cut about the head and
hands. Adolph Minks took him to
! the Northwestern hospital as soon as
possible, where it was found neces-
sary to put stitches in his head and
hands. Some fear is entertained that
he will lose his sight. At latest re-

could be expected.

will meet Yussof Hussane. the big
Turk, in a finish match tonight at the
Empress ,heater in Butte. Big crowds

oriental.

strenuous work during the past few
days. His big frame has been SUBJ
jected to the most gruelinG workouts
and he is daily impressing the onlook
ers with his skill. as wen as his speed
which. for big man. is unusual to say
the least. Hussane will enter the ring
weighing 200 pounds.
Connolly is also in splendid shape
and as usual is confident. Pat will
weigh about 1873 pounds.

ALEXANDER WORK
HORSE OF NATIONAL

The test of pitching greatness. the
ability to hold runs to minimum,
and stll keep from putting every ounce
of strength into the effort. is slapped
right up in front OF the baseball pub
lie and made to stick with greater
force in recent pitching records, per-
haps. more than ever before
Ferdinand Schupp, John McGraw's
young sensation. was at the top Of the
list in the National league for last
season. but he scarcely counts In such
a computation Of figures. But Grover
Cleveland Alexander, the real leader Of
the league. shows what real pitcher,
one with coolies of control, can do.
Alexander appeared in - games
during the season. and he pitched IS
complete contests. Only one man.
Meadows. st. Louis, took part in more
games, 81, but even he did not APP
proach Alcxander's record OF COM
pleted games. The figures credit him
with going the distance on only II
occasions. +-7
Not only did the Philadelphia marvel
finish best in 33 Of the games he fin
ished, but he pitched abseballs to more
batters than any other man. having
faced an even 1900 batsmen Yet
with all those men facing him he held
his wild pitches down to just three
and hit only 10 men. He issued only
so bases On balls, slightly more than
an average Of one in each game. He
was touched however, for s2s hits and
was the only National league hurlcr
to pass 900.
Other pitchers faced more than 1000
batters and nearly every one Of them
has n wilder record than Alexander
shows. when It Is considered that
the Nebraskan established a new rec. :

Columbia's wrestling team will in

OF two Cinnamon. II present indica :
tions prove correct. Y. c. Lee and l..
II. Zip are the two orientals who are
out for the sport. Lee is competing in
the ll5-pound class and Zip in the 1885,
pound class. Coach Gus Peterson of
the Blue and White grapplers is en-
thusiastic ov~r the showing Of both
candidates, sad predicts that they will
surprise many of their American add
vcrsarics in dual meets this winter.
Both Lee and Zip are students in the
extension teaching department. but the
two expect to enter college in Febri-
airy at the beginning Of the new sc :
mester. Lee in particular has easily
thrown every opponent he has met in
the bantamwcight class. and Zip has
been just as successful among the
featherweishts. The Chinese contin-
gent at Columbia is enthusiastic over
the record of the two Chinese.

Slim Sallee Expelled by Fra
,terRity Because of Sign
,ing Contract.

New YORK., Jan. 1.-THE baseball
players frFtNrhity, through it's presi-
dent. dawn ~ f'ultz, today threw
down the gauntlet to organized base
ball and declared that unless the
.magnates agreed to the requests Of
the fraternity there would be no need
OF training camps this spring.
A. evidefce Of the intent Of the fra
ternity to fight for what it terms Its
Just rights. sthe organization announced
i had expelled Pitcher Harry r.
lSlim) Sallee from membership be-
cause he had signed a contract with
the New 44rk National League club
after he hxpromised he would stand
with the fraternity until given the
word that would permit Of a contract
acceptance.
President F'ultzs statement in part
is az follows:
& The report that Harry +. Sallee
recently signed contract with the
New York Giants has been investi-
gated by the fraternity and found to
be true. Sallee was a member Of the
fraternity and voluntarily pledged
himself with between 500 and 700 play
ers. not to enter into contract until
he was instructed to do SO after our
request to organized ball had received
proper consideration. AS no consid-
Grafton whatever has been given our
REQUESTS to the board, and as Sallee
acted In direct violation of his pledge
he was today expelled from the fra
terntty. THIS is the necessary result
Of any such act, and no exceptions Gao
be made. Sallee now stands discred-
tied among ball players as a man who
broke his word and who would not
stick with his people"

EAST TO MEET WEST
IN TENNIS MATCHES

plan is under way to play an East
VS.. West series of lawn tennis team
matches this winter on the Pacific
coast as soon as George NJ. Church and
Harold Throckmorton. the New Jersey
stars. return from their quest Of the
far east championship in Manila.
Two Of the following players from
the east have been mentioned as likely
to make the journey to the coast and
there team up with Church and
Throckmorton against the west: Rob-
ert Lindley Murray. Karl H. Behr and
Joseph J. Armstrong ~,
These players would make formi-
dable combination for anybody that
might be brought against them. al
though it's not definitely settled yet
just which Of the trio named will be
able to make the necessary arrange
ments for the trip. Murray, while n
native Of California, is now located in
the east and will represent that side
OF the continent if he plays.
William NJ. Johnston. Clarence J..
Griffin. Johnny Strachan, Maurice Nc
Loughlin and Roland Roberts. all Cali
fornians. are among those from whom
the west would have no trouble in
making a selection to face the invasion
from the east. On the asphalt courts
Of California the native sons would be
at distinct advantage over their
eastern rivals as was the case last
year when the two sections met on the
coast.

Former Heavyweight Cham
! pion Now Showing Skill
in Pantages Act.

Bob Fitzsimmons, the famous gladi-
ator of the ring, was in Missoula yes
terday. But Ruby Bob is through
with real prize fighting for the time
being. anyway. When Bob gets to
years. and finds some state where the
cold hearted authorities will let an oc-
togenarian fight, he may again essay
to capture the championship. Not
necessarily any certain class of cham
pionship, for when Bob won the heavy
weight title he weighed only 1853
pounds. and never weighed much over
that in any of his succeeding fights
At one time Fitz held the heavy.
weller and middleweight champion
ships all at once.
Bob is at present In vaudeville. with
the Pantages show. where ne puts on a
monologue and sparring exhibition
with his son, Bobby. junior. who is
said to be quite promising fighter
himself. While the male progepies
of the house of Fitzsimmons are out
with vaudeville show. Mrs. Fitzsom-
mons is doing the Billy Sunday stunt
as an evangelist and is at present
gaining considerable notoriety in
Butte, where she is doing uplift work
among the women of the restricted
district
Fitzsmmons, senior, is a baldheaded
elderly looking man, with n pair Of
long skinny arms, which in his fight =
ing days, resembled rapid fire guns
more than anything else. and as he is
built on the pipestem order and is
lean, he is the very antithesis OF a
pug" Bob's supcrabundance of ex-
ceedingly large freckles are also one
of his numerous claims to fame.
Although Bob is well over 80 years
of age, he has not been out of the
ring very long, and just few months
ago was scheduled to fight a Younger
man in Wisconsin, but the state box

the promoters to stage the bout be-
cause of Rob's age.
Fitzsimmons fought his first bat
ties in Australia and later came to
America, where, after winning several
fights. he stacked up against debonair
Jim Corbett, the heavyweight title
holder in 1897, and though he weighed
only 15s pounds, the lankv fighter
from the Antipodes knocked out the
champion in the fourthteenth round.
Previous to this fight Fitz had won
the middleweight championship OF the
country.
! On June 3. 1899, Fitzsimmons met
big Jim Jeffries at Coney Island and
was knocked out by the boilermaker
in the eleventh round, losing the title
In 1902 Fitzsmmons challenged JEFF
fries and was again knocked out, this
time in eight rounds.
Fitzsimmons made several hundred
thousand dollars in the ring, but lost
most of it in wild speculation and in
betting on racehorses. He has been
declared bankrupt a couple OF times
during the last few years, and at pres
ent depends on his vaudeville act to
recuperate his fortunes to such a stage
that he may back young Bob Fitzsim
mons for chance at the title.
