By FAIR PLAY, (Cor ight 5, Casper Tribune) JJEW YORK, May 7.—It is not at all unlikely that Jack Dempsey wil! enter the ring for a bout in the course of the six weeks that he will remain abroad, The Writer gets this from high authority, Just before sailing for Wurope there came from England an offer frem responsible parties to pay Dempsey $200,000 to bex any oppon- ent whatever, It was made clear that it made no great difference about the gontender, that the main thing was to have Dempsey do his stuff in England under real fighting gonditions. By way of showing Dempsey's re- lation to Kearns, it should be sald that he transmitted the offer at once to his dapper manager, instructing him to go into the deal as he saw tH, Personally, Jack would not be at all averse to taking on some oppon- ent while abroad by way of knocking some rust off him and preparing him- self tor further bouts in the United States.

For fifteen yd league third base- men to accept élgit or more fielding ehanees in @ nine inning game is re- garded gs a good season's work. To date there haye been nine “eights,” to say nothing of one nine and one “ten,” Jones of Detroit ie credited with one eight; Prothre, Boston Amert- cans, one; Haney, Detroit; ene; Tray- nor, Pittsburgh, one; Robertson, St. Louls Americans, one; Stock, Brook- lyn, one; Spurgeon, Cleyeland, one; Marriott, Boston Nations, one? Marriott bas gone everyone else ope better by adding “ten” to his “eight,” while Kamm, of the Chl- cago White Sex, is credited with @ “nine.” Little Wille of the Sox has had nine in previous years and is Ukely to touch that figure again, Some day he may astonish the world by making a record at third that hasn’t been touched since the old played in’ all the time for bunts.
