Monsieur .Dournee
A Ebbets Field
Lundi Soir
III Renconfre Weinert; Car
pentier Honorera l'Occa-
sion de sa Presence
By Fred Hawthorne

M. Paul Journee, Georges Carpen-
tiers animated punching bag, was
granted license yesterday extending
to him the right to knock one Charles
Weinert, of Newark, for a "gool" at
Ebbets Field, in BrookIyn's classic
precincts, on Monday night-if If. Paul
is able.
Journee, who vibrates the Fairbanks
at about 210 pounds in the shade, is
scheduled to box Weinert fifteen
round bout at Charley Ebbets's ball
park in one of the star events at that
Brooklyn, though popular, resort on
Monday evening. Yesterday the Box
ing Commission issued Paul's boxing
license, permitting Carpenters spar
ring partner to sling the gloves in this
state.
Considerable interest attaches to this
bout for the reason that Journee some
months ago, in Europe, was knocked
non compos mentis by Carpenter in a
few rounds. Without any desire to
spell Paurs Monday evening, we cannot
help speculating on the possibilities of
his approaching engagement with
W@nert. If the Newark "Adonis"
should beat Carpenters record and
devastate Journee in even shorter time
than it took Georges to do it it would
tend to show that something awful was
going to happen to Gorgeous" Georges
on the afternoon of July in Jersey
City, when he keeps his appointment
with Jack Dempsey.
But there is silver lining to every
cloud, only Paul must be careful that
it's not German silver. Supposing
Journee should escape from Weinert
xfriE fo c+a
raspberry crown on Charles brow.
Wouldn't that show that Georges has
q chance with Dempsey two weeks from
to-day? Chorus: "Yes, indeedy; but
so did the celluloid kitty that was
running up Main Street in the place
that was paved with good intentionsl
The same kind of a chancel"
Italian Joe Cans, another Carpenter
sparring partner, will attempt to show
Journee how to do it by taking Augie
Rather, the snappy local middleweight,
round bout, just before Paul and Char
lie start Topping one another.
II being apparent that both Cans
and Journee are liable to get all the
exercise they require on Monday night,
Francois Deschamps, the little cor
poral" of Manhasset, has excused both
boys from sparring with Carpenter
IN his training quarters on Monday
afternoon, when the Gorgeous One
performs for the edifcation of the
newspaper men. Henri Marcot, the
cunning cook: Marcel Denys, the light
weight with the Bronx French accent,
and good old Joe Jeannette, will accept
the Carpenter wallops instead, each
doing little overtime work.
Squire Ehbets, who thinks more of
a nickel than we do of our eyesight,
announced last night that he had in
stalled new lighting system over
the arena at ccbt of $4,000
a fashion note from Fort Leaven-
worth last night states that John Ar
thur Johnson, the noted hunk of coal
who was pulverized by Jess Willard at
Havana, will abandon striped effects
after July 7, when he gives up his
apartments in the Federal booby-hatch,
and affects certified checks.
Jack is said to have received an offer
of 5000 to meet Harry Wills, Of
New Orleans, in a twelve-round bout
at Jersey City on August 8. The price
Of coal is going IN
