of the commissary. The Czarevitch's
health grew worse: he suffered severe pains
in the legs and his temperature rose alarm
ingly. Just then the order was given that
the doctor was to be refused further access
to his patient. The Crarina begged and
prayed the commissary in vain to have this
cruel order rescinded. The poor woman's

The Gear mentions that the guards are
being continually changed, and yet there
had been little sign of help or sympathy
from any of them. Only one man had
shown himself kindly disposed; he had
been a soldier on the German front and
had once been one of the guard of honor
when the Gear had gone to Gagry. But he
was soon withdrawn.
In the diary at this stage are two loose
letters on plain white paper in illiterate
handwriting and execrably bad French,
signed Gun officer russo" They point to a
mysterious episode about which the diary
itself is silent

PHIL DOUGLAS IS ILL;
LEGAL EIGHT HALTED

NEW YORK. Aug. 30.-A tempo
rary lull in the active fight to get
Phil Douglas. former star Of the
Giants pitching staff. back into the
ranks of organized baseball, has been
brought about by the illness of the
banished pitcher.
Douglas is at present confined to
his Washington Heights home suf-
fering from a severe nervous attack
and is under the care OF a specialist.
DouglaS. has been advised by his
physician to take complete rest, and
not to assume any active part for
the present at least in the attempt
to have his case brought before
Commissioner Lands.
Last week Douglas made several
trips to the Yonkers office of his
attorney, Edward Lauterbach, for ex-
tended conferences, but he has been
unable to do so far the last few days.
Mr.. Lauterbach has consulted with
the big pitcher at the latter's home
lately, but has been unwilling to
make a public statement as to what
steps he has taken to have the case
reopened.
According to dispatch from
Chicago last week, Commissioner
Lands declared that he had written
to Douglass lawyer stating that he
would reopen the case II the ban.

.Rutland farmer had earned a fell
apiece. Turner gained a decision IN
the opening bout after forty-six min
utes of clean, lightning-like crap
pling. One Of Turner's flying feet
caught Ketonen on the nose and
started the claret. Shortly there
after Ketonen was held with body
scissors and flopped..
In the second session Ketonen
used the famous Boston split, !"
which he claims to have invented.
In the first bout Turner was twice
in jeopardy but got out OF trou-
ole. After forty.three minutes Ke-
tonen's famous hold forced Turner
to quit. He raised his hand to
referee Pat O'Connor signifytng he
was through.
After q fifteen.minute rest Ke-
tonen came back much fresher than
Turner. 1t required seventeen min
utes before Ketonen got Turner in

shoulders to the mat.
A sizeable crowd viewed the eX-

long wait before the show started
and the delay occasioned by Tur-
ner's failure to appear for the feat.

While there was little difference
in the weight of the grapplers ke-

gamely to the task. The local artist

FIGHTER
WARM ON TRAIL
Of JOE LYNCH
Joe Wright Makes Splendid
Record in Seven Months
as Pro Boxer.

Only a few years ago an indus
trious youngster going to school
used to divide his evenings doing his
home work and reading about what
was going on in fistiania.
The large purses offered caused
the youngster to wonder IL 1t WASH
worth while after all to master the
art of manly defense.
The lads interest increased when
the boys with whom he associated
showed up sporting diamond rings
and gold watches they had won In
the amateur ranks.
The temptation was too great for
the ambitious youngster and he de.
cided to try his skill at the game OF
give and take. In his initial start
he proved a sensation and thereafter
defeated opponents with clock.like
regularity.
The boy is none other than Joe
Wright, Of Rockaway Beach. After
convincing himself that he had
enough of the boxing game In the
simon-pure ranks, Wright turned
professional and has been meeting
with equal success.
Wright is a printer by trade. In
the seven months he has been per-
forming as pro he has established
an enviable record. Last week
Wright boxed a fast six-round draw
with Willie O'Connell. He holds vic
tories over frankie Sinclair and Joe
Reed, and while In the amateurs got
an award over Louis Gugliemini, the
boy who has bene going great guns
since he joined the paid ranks Of the
pugilistic profession.
Wright's one ambition is to win
the title which now adorns the brow
Of Joe Lynch. Jack Gillen is groom.
ing his protege for such an impor'
tant encounter and expects to have
Wright ready within the next six
months. The Rockaway boy has
science, is a good clean puncher and
knows ring generalship, but lacks
the experience of a seasoned warrior.
1t will not take him long to acquire
that.
