16 tll;\T WITH THE BOXERS Busy Times at Both the Coney Island and Oolumbian Olubs, WHISPERINGS OF THE WHIRLING WHEEL | Entries shooting and Fishing -Dog Day Yelps from the Bienchers and All the for the Treeders Moot FTER tho crawfish eorge Dawson {n his £10,000 match with Tommy Ryan, it was repor Ryan had & match with Johnny Reagan to box six rounds at 148 pounds for the gate receints and to take place either in New York or Brooklyn. When this story was first promulgated I doubted its authenticity. [ couldn’t figure out how Ryan, who is a man of at least ordinary shrewdness and intelli gence, would enter into such a condemned idiotic compact. Reagan is no man's mark. He gave Jack Dempsey one of the battles of his life, and since that day on Long Tsland has grown bigger and stronger, and I think, botter in every way. He stood the Nonpareil off for forty-four rounds, succumbing in the forty-fifth after one hour and ten minutes of torrific fighting. That Ryan should consent to meet him at 148 pounds for the gate receipts was, to say the least, surprising. If it had becn to a flulsh and for a bone fide stake and the receints that would have been a horse of another color, That therc as nothing in this alleged atch. howevar, is borne out by the state- ments contained in the following: CicaGo, T, July 18.~Friend Sandy: T am_ buck in . Ohicago for an - in- definite stay, have no matches on nand and but iittle prospect of getting any on soon. When I left here six woeks ago I had slgncd with Dawson for side bet and of course the largest purse obtainable. We both osted $1.000 as a forfelt.

TOMMY RYAN, iight be. But he At ho would fight dieht as well safd lo thing 18 he knows that however, t purse. rutl and the only hin Inside Lavhene, whon There is no fight on just now, half so in- teresting to my notion, as that between the little saddle colored Holigonian, George Dixon, and Eddie Pierce. 1t comes off_just two weeks from Monday njght, August 7, at the big cottuge on Coney Island’s surf- ‘washed * shol While there is a vast deal of speculation going on among the orlental red hots, Dixon, as a matter of eourse, is almos universal favorite. The only grounds there is for this, but they bo good oucs, is the long list of easy victories over presumably the best men the three con- tinents could produce,that stands to the little Rembrandt champion’s_credit. In the past six years Dixon has made twenty-nine,actual fights, returning the winaer in each instance save one, that with Cal rthy at Boston in February, 15880, which after seventy rounds of lovely milling terminated in & draw. Why he didn’t win here has never been satisfactorily explained. The only other real try-out the boy has had was with Johuny Murphy before the Gladstone club at Providence in October of the same year, ‘which Dixon won after forty rounds. He came nearer losing this fight than any he has ever had, and Murphy has aiways claimed that it was the toughest kind of tough luck that robbed him of ‘victory. 2ddie Pierce fs one of thelitle ones not to be sneezed at even by champions, and I look for him to make Dixon extend himself. He has but just emerged from the amateur realm, and Johnny Grifiin told mo in_ Chi- cago & couple of weeks ago, that Pierce is a high class man, and thatif he could meet Dixon at three pounds over the limit of their present agreement, ho would beat him sure. They fight at 120 pounds, at which notch Eddic has about alr arrived, Nin, whose heart was broken by a_fluke two weeks ago, credited to Solly Smith, has always proven to me that he knows what a good wan is, und I think, today he is the master of Solly Smith by long odds, and the peer, it ot the superior, of Dixon. He said that Picree would fight ‘as long as he cou twiteh a mu; that he was extremely el 1d us agile as a French dancing ma ter on his props. On such authori be a worthy antagonist for any of them. Still my faith in the Haligonian is not yet susceptible to any very deteriorating jar. The Coney Island ana Columbian clubs have 5o man contests booked that it would take a Phi elphia lawyer to keep track of them. Tho next event at the latter house, howevyer, is that between Paddy Smith and young Corbett, Monday cvening, July ‘which will be interesting only from the that Jim Co tt will be behind his ¢ - fornia protege and Denver I2d Smith behind his inflammato! complexioned brother., As & “ourtain raiser” for this event Henry Baker and Con Riordan will thump each other for ten rounds and whatever else they oan get out of it, Following this at the same club, on Au- 21, comes the featherweight battle between stocky little Johnny Van Heest avd young Griffo, the Australian, They are to weigh in 8t 122 and the contest will be fora urse and a side bet of #,000, Geor oing Griffo's producer and' Mike Haley, Van Heesv's. When these two hot ones meet the fun will be fast and furious, and Jjudging simply from appearance, and form, it looks as if Griffo would have way the best of it. Imet the Australion in the office of the Columbian club a week or so ago and had quito a talk with him, and I must acknowl- edgo that in a fighting way I like him very much. He is very talkative and full of Erunkl as a monkey. He is a black-haired, lack-eyed, swarthy looking individual, with o very Dagoish air. He stands a full head over the St Paul boy, who is only 5 feet 2, and has big muscled arws and the legs of a middleweight on him, He looks much of a marvel to me, and how he1s to get down to weightisoneof those things I pretend to know nothing about. He says he can accomplish it, though, by hard and incessant work from this out, and he likely can, but to take off adipose and secure firmness of cuticle and solidity of flesh, and gather strength and flexibility of muscle at the same time, is an- other thing, and I doubt Griffo's ability to doit. Likehis fellow countryman, Hughey Napier, Griffo has no business iu the feather weight class. If he can accomplish what he [ i,. he can he ought to whale Johnny with but little trouble, Tofalller with his height, he s woll proportioned every way, with a fight- ing frame out of llghl, square shoulders, deep chest, with & thick neck fitting well dnto the scapular, and a face on bim full of the lines of a_determined, unrelenting and gamey This, however, will be a fight worth a trip across the country to sce, P.

If ho has any good ex- planation to offer he should present it at once. And according to Donahue, Joe Harris, the Australian book-maker over here with a string of antipodean fighters, has a good line on pugilists from all parts of the world. He believes Dan Creedon, who fights Alex ains before the Columbian club next month, to be the king pin of middleweights, not oven barring Fitzsimmons. He thinks Tom Tracey the greatest of welterweights, and ho is specially anxious to match I'racey against Fred Morris, “‘the cyclone,” in order to show Americans how good Tra- cey fs. As to Napier, all the Austrailans agreo that he is a wonder, even for Australin. They will all go broke on Hugh any time he starts, but they rather despair of gettinga start. In the event of Napier not _getting on & mateh, however, they have a lighvweight whom they wish to pit against Austin Gibbons. Heis Martin Denny, and they assert that Austin drew out of a match with Denny and they would like o get_on anathor, to bo decided at the Joney Island Athletie club., Lator reports have it that this latter match has been made.

Dick Moore of St. Paul and Georze Kess- ler, the Butte, Mont., wonder, have been matched for a twenty-round contest for $1,000 a side. and the ovent will probably be one of the future curtain raisers before the Columbian club. Oh, my, that isa joke. The World's fair commissioners have denied Jay Jay Corbett the right to pose as a freak even, in ‘the Midway Plaisance.

EBRASKA 13 |- Wall Open witn the Largest Entry List in the History of the Stave. ‘The annual meeting of the Nebraska As- sociation of Trotting and Pacing Horse Breeders opens up at the fair ground's driv- ing purk Lwo weeks from Tucsday next, the Sth of August, and continues throughout the 9th, 10th and 1ith, with four events each day. This meeting will undoubtedly prove the banuer meoting of the association, as every- thing points to a most flattering success, The list of entries, embracing 23 head of the very best horses in the west, excoeds that of any previous year both as to quantity and quality. In consequence of this bright outlool the members of the organization all over the state are much elated, and this is a certain guaranty that on the four days named the citizens of Omaha, and the sur- rounding country, will have an opportuuity of witnessing some magnificent sport. J.0. Kesterson, president, of Fairbury, and A. J. Briges, secretary, of Superior are both pegging away energetically and capidly aping everything nicely for the big meet. othor officers, D. T.” Mount, H. S. Reed and George C. Smith, are also industriously engaged in the same good cause, and with such a body of intelligent and progressive individuals at woric it_can be relied upon that said work will be done and done well Every horse owner or_horse lover in the state should take a pride in this meeting and leave no stone unturned to achieve an overwhelming success, in the Th Nebraska is toduy front rank of the. trotting horse in- and tho eyes of horse owners and horso buyers from the Atlantic to the Pa- ific are turned this way. This is an almost incredible situation, when you take into con sideration that Nebraska nost an un- broken ternitory twenty-five years ago, and the industry above mentiohed has only been receivng the time and attertion of responsible representative men but a comparatvely few years. Now there are hundreds pursuing this faudable avocation and the fair young state is in-a_position that makes her the envy of tho older states who 8o long held a monopoly in the trotting horse. In world’'s records Nebraska is well in the van. holding & number that are excecdingly flattering to the state's intelhgent breeders, and which they appreciate and value beyond computa- tion.

The Roadster Club All Right, * The Omaba Gentlemen's Roadster club, all reports 0 the contrary, never was i a more flourishing condition than at ihe pres- ent time. The gentlemen at the head of this honorable body re men of Lo much good and Judgment to allow any little minor controversy om ‘four wheelers' or “‘two wheelers" or smyether in: (uential sub Ject 1o interferw with the progress of the club, Two Gewne Nobraska Mors Robbie P, 2:144¢, Is not only the first and only trotter totest 2:15, bred in Nebraska, but the only eme to beat it owned in Ne braska. He was timed separately in Lis fourth heat in 2:123¢, being lapped on the winner, and tretted the last half of the mile in 1:041¢. Phallas, 2:13%;, has stood sever yoars as the fastest fourth heat for stallions. Robble P's 2:14'5 is the fastest fifth heat for: stallions and 2:10'5 18 tho fastest sixth heat. The average time of the x heats is 2:15, tho fastest ever made by o stallion, and stamps him as the gamest of trotting stallions in the United States. He is absolutely frictionless in his gait, very handsome, and wore nothing but a pair_of sealping boots in his race. His sire, Charles Caffery, by General Knox, dam Rosalind, ¢, was brought to Nebraska thirteon years ago by Captain Ed Pyle. Ho also brought Maxy Cobb, 2131 at the same time. Maxy held the world's recora for stallions, and Caffery has proven the greatest sire of trotters in tho west. Ho has ten in the 2:30 list, and his gots have held each state record for 1,2, 4, nd 7-year-olds, and the fastest’ Nel braska bred” trotter on both mile and half mile tra Captain Pyle sold a half inter- est in the stallion last spring to Clinton H. Briggs of this city, and he may be congratu- lated on being associated with ono of the best drivers and managers in_the United States, as well as owning such brilliant per- formers. Captain Pyle came to Nebraska thirteen years ago, and started to breeding and campaigning trotters. He lost all his developed stock but twoin a fire at the Omaha fair grounds seven years ago, which toany one with less courage would have caused a failure, but those who know him best claim he has overcome more obstacles than any one engaged in the business, and certainly is a manof nerve. Last yearatthe fair grounds in. this city, while oxercising Newsboy, he was run into' by a horse driven tho wrong way of the track and out of his position. The blow caused unconsciousness for three hours, and it was thought would unfit the captain for future usefulness in the sulky. but the following week at the state fair found him winning the most races at the meeting and having to be assisted in and out of the sulky. Newsboy is a dun gelding with white mane and tail 7 years old, by Brentwood, dam Lemons. Ho was campaigued last year by B.
