 History club house will 'ibe erected at an estimated expense of A,50O,0 GOO While this club will no, doubt have boxing, the glove game will not be the chief feature. All branches ot
 athletics will be encouraged.
 The Audobon Sporting Club is the third project now under way, and this club will devote it's energies to box ing exhibitions. A site has been ob- tained at 18th street and a $25o, ,00o house will be erected thereon. The
 plans call for a gymnasium on the l top floor The boxing arena, which
 will seat 5000 persons, will be located on the ground floor
 1 When these three great clubs are completed New York will be able to
 witness boxing bouts under the same
 conditions of comfort and quietude
 enjoyed by boxing enthusiasts in Eng land. .

CLAIMS EWING
 HARDER HITTER THAN BABE RUTH

New York, Mar. 1.-WhiIe the meeting of the major leagues was on in Chicago recently one of the veter- an baseball writers said to Al. Spink, long connected with baseball.
 "You've been watching the game a long while. Have you ever seen any one who could hit the ball harder and farther than Babe Ruth?''
 Yes he said, 'I believe that Dan Brouthers, Roger Connor or Buck Ewing of the old army could hit the ball farther than Ruth
 In fact, have never seen a harder nor longer hit than Buck Ewing made one day in the Polo Grounds in New York in 18Ss."
 Ewing, a giant in build as well as name, stood $ feet 2 Enches in height, came to bat with the score 3 to 0 against his team and three on base.
 When he hit the ball it appeared to mount to heaven, and as it sailed away over the centerfeIder's head: over the fence in center, and over the carriages and tally-hos which then always filtered that part of the ground, the great crowd actually held it's breath in awe. Ewing and the three men ahead of him crossed the plate.

Heinie Zimmerman
 May Sue the Giants

Another baseball suit soon may be aired in court. It is reported that Heinie Zimmerman is about to resort to law to collect his share of the Giants end of the last worlds series. It will be remembered that the other Giant players voted not to award a portion of the spells to the great Zim, it being their contention that had Heinie taken proper care of himself at critical stages of the last campaign the club might have won the pennant-
 Heinie announced that he intended to appeal to the National Commission to collect the amount he feels is his due, but it is now said that, having caught the spirit of the times, he will go over the heads of the members of the commission and haul his team mates into court.

CHARLEY WHITE SEEKING BOUT
 WITH LEONARD

New York, March 1-CharBey W hite, the Western lightweight star, is s-head- ing this way to put some of our hghtweights to a real test. For many years White has been away from these confines. as most of his time was spent at various army camps. Now he intends to make up for lost time and re-estabIish himself as one of the contenders for Benny Leonard's title.
 With Whites arrival it will mean a needed impetus in that division. The fight fans are sadly in need of new faces, and White is the boy that should stir up the desired strife. A good strong two-handed fighter, he can be expected to make it interesting for many of the leaders now appear ing around. this vicinity. Dave Dris- coll, the manager of the Jersey City club, is anxious to secure White to meet the winner of the Dundee-Jack- son imbroglio, which takes place a week from tonight.
 There is sort of a hoodoo connected with the career of White. He should have been the worlds champion. He had, Freddie Welsh beaten to a frazzle in Denver a few years ago and failed to take advantage of his lead. Before that fight he trounced Willie Ritchie when theA latter was titleholder, but the bout was too short for White t' wrest the crown from Rftch1e'S brov After the Welsh scrap White started to improve his speed, and when h was going good the war came alons and he passed up his ring life.

Fewster and Meusel
 Will Fight for Third
 Base On N. Y. Yanks

New York, Mar. 1.-As Wilson Fewster is going south with the first bunch of Yankees and Bob MeuseI is coming to Jacksonville from Cal ifornia, Huggins will be able to be- gin trying out candidates for Frank Bakers job at third base as soon as he begins training.
 Both of these players are at home in the infield and outfeld. If MeuseI shows that he can play third satis- factory Fewster will in all probability be assigned to center field berth with the Tanks.
 As the vanguard of the Rupert Illusions prepare to leave for camp the impression seems to grow strong CT that Frank Baker will report to the club after all. If this should prove so, then Meuse1 and Fewster will fight it out for the center field position.

ALLEN MAY STILL
 ME1ET BOGASH HERE

The defeat of Red Allen by Spider Roach in Waterbury on Saturday night will not spoil the proposed bout between Louise Bo- gaSh and Allen. In spite of the fact that he was put away by Roach, Allen has a big following in this city and the bitter rivalry between him and Bogash would make the proposed bout a draw ing card. Allen was knocked out in the third round on Satur- day and Roach has been unlxind enough to say that Allen wasn't really hurt but took what is known in ring circles as ''high dive.''

CUBAN MARKETS USEFUL TO TEST POPULARITY

 Trade with Cuba.

The attention of American manu-
 sacturess- new to the export business is directed by the National Foreign Trade Council to the potentialities of
 the Cuban market, which is easily ac-
 cessible, but yet characteristic of the
 vast, markets in. tie. republic further

 stepping stone for :" those companies wi. hing to test the possibilities of sell ing their products abroad. By trying, to introduee his products: in this mar ket first, the 'nlanufactra'er will be able to gauge the conditions he may expect to encounter in other Spanish speaking countries without the handi- esp of long-distance negotiations.
 '' Cuba at present offers an excellent field for American products. The greatly: inereased Drospsrity in the lsan.;, due to the fortunes made in sugar. and tobacco. has given, rise to 9 >..eu,a ,d for.luxurits of all kinds.
 Although the Unitea.States was able se obtain practically a monopoly of ."acle with Cuba during the war, our are cautioned to be very. careful in their dealings with this market as the exporters of other countries are availing themselves of every opportunity to recover their former trade.
