The department of athletics has re- ceived many propositions in relation to holding professional competitions during the period of the exposition and in all probability many important national and international profession- al events will be held in boxing, wrestling, baseball, tug-of-war and Marathon running.

OFF RITCHIE'S HEAD (Continued from Eighth Page.) fashionably gowned women, furnished a background that has never been equalled at a prize fight in Great Brit- ain. Father Boudier, vicar of St. Michael's Anglican church, Islington, was master of ceremonies. He s known to his parishioners as one of the most popular clergymen in this vicinity. He is an ardent sportsman and encourages his flock to play foot- ball and cricket and to learn a bit of boxing. When a curate at Cardiff he established a temperance saloon which was a great success, Father Boudier took the place of the Rev. Digby, who was refused permis- sfon to so act by the bishop of Lon- don. But Digby received a big ova- tion when he appeared and shook hands through the ropes with Father Boudier, The odds just previous to the fight were 6 to 4 on Welsh, but durjng the early rounds the odds Ilengthened, with few American takers. Welsh the Better Boxer. George Considine lost a large sum on Ritchie, and speaking about the fight sald? “Welsh is a wonderful fighter. T would give Ritchie the better of it In only three rounds. It was a magnifi- cent contest, with Welsh showing him- self the better man practically all the way."” ¢ Ritchie appeared nervous when he entered the ring and many times was hooted for holding, although Welsh was guilty, only in a lesser degree, of the same thing. Ritchie seemed some- what overtrained, but stood a lot of punishment. At times, when the American fighter got in those fierce uppercuts, his countrymen gave vent to cheering, but it was soon drowned in roars of thousands of Britishers at the superior work of Welsh. Be- fore the fight began Britishers joined in singing patriotic songs, which also marked the close of the contest. In winning the bout, and with it the world’'s championship, Welsh was a revelation to even his most ar- dent admirers.’ He was quick as summer lightning, a veritable phan- tom, as he darted about the ring snapping home his wasp-like blows to the face and body of the Ameri- can. His punches were not particularly hard. They stung for the moment without doing much damage, but served to canfuse Ritchie and make him miss his counters. In the in- fighting, too, Welsh easily held his own, and, boxing like a flend, had a long lead at the end of ten rounds. ‘Wonder on Defensive, What served Welsh best in his many moments of distress was his wonderful defensive skill. HE stooa there, hovering just out of range, a bland smile of contempt for his man lighting his features. Feinting craft- ily, he made the Yankee fall into many a false lead. His feet, mer- curial in their quickness, shuffied half a stride, and the plunging American heat-proof, And that would miss, and like fury Welsn would sting him again and again, At the end Ritchie bore off tne marks of battle. One of his eyes was badly bruised, swollen and blackened, and a lacerated lip added to his troubles. Welsh had his distance down to the last word. He maae few false leads, and swaying wita leads robbed them of force, or shirc< ing his head a bit allowed them to slide over his shoulders. Ritchie, realizing from the start that he was confronted by his mas- ter as a boxer, tried to end the bout with one crushing right hand count- Uneeda Blscuit Tempt the appetite, please the taste and nourish the body.

That same punch had carriea him to victory in many a hard fought battle on the other side of the water, and he counted on it again but count- ed in vain. Welsh was not such a fighter as Ritchie had been used to meeting. He kept watch on that right hand with eagle eye, and whenever Ritchie started it Welsh was either well on his way to safety or stepped in ana took it on a protecting elbow or shoulder. Ritchie in Tears After Bout. London, July 8.—Ritchie broke down when the decision was given against him, and was in tears when seen in his dressing room. He fe- fused to talk then, but later, at the hotel where he is stopping said: “I do not intend to make a holler, but I do think the worst I should have got was a draw. Welsh was holding all the time and 1 was doing the fighting. Therefore, I think the decision was not fair to me.” Ritchie hurt his right hand in the bout, but otherwise was not much damaged, except for a few bruises on the face. TAKEN TO HOSPITAL. Jonathan Draper, of Fairview street, was removed to the Hartford hospital yesterday with an acute attack of appendicitis. As this makes several attacks that Mr. Draper has had it is pessible that an operation will be necessary. However, his case will be clcsely watched for several days be- fcre any definite step is taken. Mr. Draper has for many years been em- ployed at the American Hosiery and is prominent among local Foresters. — s lhitfemores Shoe Polishes FANEST QUALITY LARGEST VARIETY “GILT EDGE, " the only ladies’ shoe dreasing that po-lrlv:lyeam:l:: .ln BII:k;.

He was placed in charge ot the probation officer for six months. Fighters in Court. James Felt, William Martin and Edward Hanson, charged with breach of the peace and beating each other, pleaded not guilty. Attorney P. k. McDonough appeared for Hanson. Officer Massey said they were fighting in front of Clark and Brainerd's store last night. He arrested Felt as one of the fighters and declared that Mar- tin was another of the fighters. The officer did not see Hanson in the scrap. JFelt claimed that Martin haa followed him and struck him. As it appeared that Hanson was not in the fight the case against him was thrown out. Martin explained that the troubie started over a fight that took place last winter. This witness also claimed that Felt drew a knife,” un- opened, to hit him with. It ap- peared that there is bad blood be- tween Felt and Martin. Luke Reynolds testified to seeing the fight which resulted in the arrest and sald Felt struck the first biow, after challenging Martin to go “down the avenue” and “have it out.’”” Han- son, who was standing with Rey- nolds, testified to seeing the scrap, { but said he was not a participant himself, Martin was discharged was fined $10 and costs.
