Highwood- Benton Club Plays
Speedy Ball Behind Fishers
Hurting and Beats EIectrics
Chamberlain Blows in Fifth Frame as Visitors
Gather Trio of Hits and Runs;
Remneas Finishes.

Playing a fine brand of ball behind
a twirler who famed 16 Electrics, the
Highwood-Fo Benton nine took Sun
days game at Earling park, 4 to /.
Fisher, who halls from Belt, was the
slabman who had the Electric bats
swinging at space only and he looked
good all the way, holding the hits to
a meager four, and only ope of these
for an extra bag. This is the same
the Belt club a fortnight ago and
famed more than q score of the Cas-
caders.
Chamberlain started on the mound
for the Electrics and allowed but a
single until the fifth frame, when he
got into so much trouble that Alex
Remneas relieved him and held the
visitors scoreless for the rest of the
game. 1t was in this inning, however,
that the damage was done, and Rem
meas took a lost cause on his hands.
There was one noticeable failing on
the part of the locals as they came to
bat. Almost without exception,
Fisher elected to toss the first one
or two clean over the plate. no mat
ter what the situation, and it was
rarely that a bat would swing until
Umpire Brentson had declared one or
two strikes and the twirler had the
batsman in the hole. 1t was a crying
pity to watch fat ones come over and
never draw a swing.
The visitors chalked up a counter
in the initial frame. With two tucked
away, thinner placed a single beween
first and second, stole second, and got
to third when a throw in from that
bag to the box went over Chamber
lain's head. A moment later he scored
on a wild pitch.
Innings went by like clockwork then
until the Electric share of the fourth.
With one down, Shorty Bross let I'm
pire Brentson call two strikes on him
and then poked a pretty single over
short. Daniels popped out to Iddings.
With two down. Bross legged 1t for
second and made it. Knight then
drove the ball into his favorite spot in
right field for two bags and scored
Bross. Martin rendered the swan
song with a Whit to retire the side.

have been a 20-round bout.
Carpenter never had a chance after
the third round. He was barely able to
respond to the bell at the beginning of
the sixth. With his right eye com
pletely closed and his nose broken, he
was unable to put up a guard.
In the sixth the negro fighter planted
a series of terrific rights TO Carpen-
tiers head and the French idol sank
TO the floor. One of his legs caught
between the legs of the Senegalese as
be fell.
The crowd, the largest that ever wit
messed Il boxing contest in France,
sensed the end. All was uproar.
The referee, Harry Bernstein, at
first ruled that Ski had been d%isquaii-
fled for tripping but the thrOng,
which considered that Carpenter had
been beaten squarely, by a better man.,
received the decision with a great cho-
rus Of boots and jeers and even threat
.ened the referee with bodily harm. The
three judges of the fight, Victor Brey-
er, Jean Pujol, F~renchmen, and Mrs.
Dennison of London, went into con-
sultation. An hour later they declared
the negro the winner. Their verdict
was received with terrific cheering
from the spectators, who had remained
in the arena for it. Carpenter had
been booted by large numbers of the
crowd as he was taken from the ring
to his dressing room.
The defeat of Carpenter was entire
ly unexpected. He was the favorite
when the men entered the ring and the
crowd was d~umbfounded when they saw
their idol pummeled all over the ring
and subjected to terrific punishment at
the hands of the big black.
Tried Every Possible Trick
Carpenter tried every trick of his
ring knowledge to stave off defeat.
Twice be was warned for butting dur
ing the fifth round. 1t seemed evident
that he was anxious to be disqualified
by the referee rather than to suffer
the ignominy of a knockout. When his
subterfuges became apparent the crowd,
which previously had been pulling for
him, jeered and hooted, and cheered
the negro.
When the gong sounded at the COM
mencement of the fight. Sikh appeared
timid. He covered up in fear of
Georges terrible right. The Sene-
galese, however. seemed to take cour-
age after having received four rights
to the jaw, which failed to make the
slightest impression on him. Carpen-
tiers face took on q puzzled look as
the burly battlcr took his blows and
back looking for more.
So confident was Carpenter Of ulti-

With the crowd settling down to see
which side could break the / to / tie,
the visitors started off the fifth with
a ground out by Harris via Martin.
Kjose, the stocky backstop, dashed one
at Martin which was too fast to
handle. Fisher then whitfield, and the
Electrics were breathing easy. Calm
before the what? Yes, it was, and
right here was where the visitors
opened up wide with the ash. Kjose
negotiated the orthodox steal for the
situation. GOssack cracked a streak
ing hit just inside third for two
bases, scoring the catcher. Greedy
dropped a single into the short right
garden, scoring Gossack, and counted
a run when thinner ripped off a three

lain's last delivery of the afternoon,
Remneas going in here to strike out
Iddings and end the rna
Remneas was in trouble a couple of
times after this, but pitched himself
into the clear.
The only other feature of the after
noon was the finding of a watch
charm by Groundkeeper Brown, who
is holding it in hopes the loser will
either claim his property or someone
else will lose a watch to go with it.

anxious to finish his man, missed many
blows that would have ended the bout
had they landed. Meanwhile, Georges
occasionally shot wicked rights against
his opponent, which, however, failed to
slow him up. Up to this time the
negro showed no marks of punish
ment.
In the fifth round Sikh again sprang
TO the offensive from his corner, in
tending quickly to polish off the
Frenchman. Carpenter met the attack
with a low blow and was warned by
Referee Bernstein. The low blow
seemed to enrage Sikh, who went furi-
ously at Carpenter, missing numerous
swings. Finally, however. he caught
CARPENTER with a short hook to the
law and the Frenchman went down.
Carpenter, who was near the ropes,
gripped them in rising and butted Sikh
in the stomach. phe Frenchman was
HELPLESS. Again he was warned by the
referee for butting. Meanwhile the
crowd was yelling to the referee to
stop the encounter. When the bell
a Carpenter ~groggily staggered to
his corner.
When the gong rang for the sixth
round. Carpenter came out hardly
able to stand. The majority of the
spectators expected his second, Des-
champs, to throw in the sponge, as the
Frenchman was unable to put up his
hands. A short uppercut from Sikh
cent Carpenter reeling backwards and
then the negro drove hard rights and
lefts 10 the body. Carpenter crump-
led TO the floor half way through the
ropes. completely out, after n minute
and ten seconds of fighting. Sikh

Sikh Slow at Start
The crowd evidently was of the
same opinion as Carpenter, for it
Justify cheered Georges, the Senegal
csc not having landed d solid blow up
to this time.
The French champion appeared thin.
His complexion was sallow and his
face drawn, for he had stripped off
apparently in good condition for the
fray, although somewhat fine. Georges
weight was announced at 1872 pounds.
Sikh, stripped, was a beautiful pie
ture of health and condition. His
skin was like ebony as compared with
the Wilderness of that of the French
man. Carpenter smiled in his usual
deb0nair style as the bathrobe of the
black man fell from his shoulders.
In the first round Sikh rushed out of
his corner and met Carpenter before
the Frenchman was fairly out of his
chair.
Carpenter, however, caught the
black man with two straight rights
Sikh covered up. and then went down
to one knee from a light left. The ref
cree ordered him up.
Carpenter then swung two hard
rights TO the jaw. Sikh took them

Carpenters face wore a puzzled ex-
preston, although plainly he was hold
ing back. Sikh did not land a clean
blow.
In the second round, Carpenter
with a look Of disdain on his face, re-
peatedly jabbed Sikh with his left with
out a return. Then, as Sikh was rush
ing in, he caught the negro flush on
the Jaw with a terrific right swing
Carpenter drew back, expecting Sikh
to drop under the blow. Ski. how
ever, instead, rushed in and shot two
short hooks to the body. This sur
prised Carpenter.
Couldn't Dent Skis Jaw
Just before the bell Carpenter again
caught Sikh flush on the chin, but the
negro merely grinned at him. 1t was
easily his round. but the Frenchman
was putting hard as he wandered to
his corner. Also be had lost his con
fident smile.
In the third round Sikh rushed from
his corner toward Carpenter. Car

tiously. Then he tented with his lief,
and, obtaining an opening, drove a hard
right to Skis jaw. The negro dropped
to one knee and took a count of seven
Then he jumped and caught Carpenter
with left and right swings to the stom-
ach. Carpenter went down and took
a count of four.
When the Frenchman arose, he
plainly was groggy. Sikh, seeing his
advantage, showered rights and lefts
upon him, playing always for the stom-
ach. He had Carpenter gasping for
breath and staggering at the end of
the round.
In the fourth round Sikh pummeled
Carpenter all over the ring. The
Frenchman was barely able to with
stand the punishment. He was bleed
ing, his right eye was closed, his nose
was flattened and his mouth wide open.
Carpenter resorted to all the known
tricks of his long experience. He en-

GOOD JOKE ON DANISH KING
Monarch Jumped Too Quickly to Con-
cIusion That Eskimo Was
Actuated by Loyalty.

An amusing story of the king of
Denmark's recent visit to Greenland
was recently told by NJ. Aagaard of the
Danish legation, to members of the
Danish club In London.
AS the royal yacht was approaching
Greenland dark speck became visible
on the open sea. 1t proved to be a
solitary Eskimo in his little cayak
(native canoe). The Eskimo came on
board and his loyalty In having braved
the perils of the sea in such frail
craft assured him the warmest of well
comes. The king presented him with
cigar and, what the Eskimos most
highly prize, a rifle.
On landing, the king described the
incident to the Danish commissioner
In Greenland and asked him who the
man was.
The commissioner, In accents Of hor-
ror, replied: ''The mans an escaped
convict. He broke prison yesterday,
stole canoe and put to sea. We
thought he had been drowned"
