Up to a couple of days ago about all the strapping heavyweight thought of was the trouble he had on hand for next Fric.y night, and his thoughts were concentrated on the best means of disposing of his burly opponent, but now all i changed.

For Sharkey has heard the roar of guns and the shriek of shells at Ma- tanzas and hearing them he listens for more music of the same kind. ‘While he is preparing to pummel a fellow citizen—or get pummeled—brave boys in blue are getting ready to wal- lop the Spaniards, and shen he thinks of this Sharkey wishes the whole thing was over and that he was once more on the gun deck of a man-of-war. Some of the sailors in the fleet awaiting the signal to bombard Havana were ship- mates of the pugilist once and Tom frankly confesses that he would take more pleasure in sharing with them the prize money obtained from a Spanish ship than in pocketing the purse hung up for the winner of next Friday's event. “Do I wish I was back in the ser- vice repeated Sharkey yesterday. “You bet I do and if this scrap con- tinues I'll get there too. Only I shall go East to enlist if I go back for I wouldn’t take chances on being tied down to one of the ships on this coast. If I go into the navy again it will be to fight and not to be bottled up in this port. “Oh, it's all nonsense to talk about those greasers whipping us in any kind of a fight. 1 wouldn't want anything better than to be one of the crew on Dump gy EXceRrcise IA HE LONGS TO PACE A GUN-DECK ONCE Bombardment of Matanzas Fires Sharkey With a Desire to Rejoin His Former Mates. one of our gunboats and go up against the best ship in the Spanish navy. Those fellows have a few good ships, but they can’t fight. “There’s no need of worrying about any of our ships. The only thing that troubles me is that Spain will quit be- fore.we have a chance to lick her as she deserves for blowing up the Maine. All our boys want is one chance at the Spanish fleet, just one, and after it is all over I stand ready to eat all the Spanish ships left above water and not captured.” Then Sharkey went back to his rope- skipping and after a plunge in the surf got ready for supper.

B. Jen- | nings & Co. sprung another one yester- " day at Ingleside. It was the brown colt | Glorian, which turned up winner of the | mile and a sixteenth handicap at odds of 10 to 1. Johnny Woods had the leg up and with 94 pounds to carry the 3- year-old made an end-to-end affair of | it, winning all out at wire a neck before | Fonsovannah, with Dick Clawson in the saddle. Joe Ullman, the 2-to-1 favorite, | looked dangerous to the stretch, gallop- | ing along in second place, but when | Clayton called on him he could not re- | spond and fell back beaten, | The racing throughout was a shade off color and the attendance was hardly up to the average. Favorites were suc- | cessful in three instances. | Trappean, a 5-to-1 chance, downed a band of *dogs” in the opening five fur- long scramble. Celoso looked to have | the purse won at the paddock, when Shiells on Trappean came with a rush, | beating the Baldwin filly a head. Gran- | dezia, the favorite, with Thorpe up, was | thira. | The event following, a flve and a | half furlong sprint, was another sec- | ond-hand affair. Amasy was made fa- | vorite and as none of ‘he “crabs” be- | hind him could raise a gallop won all | by himself. Pongo, a 25-to-1 chance, | took the place from Gotlieb. | In receipt of weight from the 3-year- oid Valencienne it looked as though ! Miss Lynah could pull off the six fur- | long selling event and she opened up a | 4-to-5 choice. The wise ones, however, got aboard Valencienne, forcing her odds down from 5 to 2 to 3 to 2, at which price Miss Lynah also closed. It proved | hard from Landed Winner of the| | of the fast colt Lobos, was reinstated. a gift for Valencienne, the filly gallop- ing away from the Jennings entry, winning easily from Rebel Jack. Miss Lynah was fourth behind Miss Ross. Canace, the shifty filly from the stable of Nick F long run for 2-year-olds in the gamest possible manner from Sombre, the sec- ond choice. Taking the lead soon after the start the winner was challenged by Sombre in the run home and driving the furlong pole “Skeets” Martin landed her winner from the Jen- nings entry a neck in 1:15%. Owyhee was third, a length in front of the fa- vorite, Milt Young. Martin also piloted the winner of the final race on the card, a mile and a fur- long run, decided under selling condi- | tions. He had the mount on Thelma, the lukewarm choice, and keeping the brown mare out in front all the way downed San Marco over a length in 1:55%. AN INGLESIDE STAKE TO-DAY. Five Starters Will Face the Flag in the Four-Mile Event. The rich Ingleside Stake over four miles will be the feature of the sport this afternoon. The field should furnish some rare guessing, as none of the starters have evér been asked to go the route. Buckwa looks far and above the class hould be able to win. die Ames, who piloted Montallade, was guspended. There was 7 to 1 offered in the opening betting against the sprinter, and as his preceding race, with Piggott up, when he fin- ished fourth, was an indifferent one, it looks as though Holly's horse has simply gone stale. At the conclusion of the racing the stewards held a mesting, and Henry Mason, the tralner That is, he can race nt Ingleside, but still remains suspended at the track over 'the bay.

LOUIS CAHEN & SON, Wholesale Dealers, 416-418 Sacraments S8, Bouts of a whirlwind nature were fur- nished to about 300 lovers of boxing last evening by the Manhattan Athletic Club in their rooms at 1745 Mission street. One became so torrid that a police sergeant, | fearing a repetition of the Griffo-McCar- thy battle, ordered a halt in the middle of the fourth round, just when the spec- tators were warming up to fit. After interesting preliminary three- round goes between Fred Schoenfeld and J. Lahey, Wood brothers, Gus Coster and | Fred Muller, Joe Sullivan and Oscar Hil- | ton, Yama and McDevitt, Ast and Magee were disposed of, Young Muller, an elder brother of the redoubtable Fred, and Jack King, alias Rdberts, entertained the spectators with three rounds and a half of arm swinging and ludicrous boxing. The first round was filled in with long | distance sparring and grimaces, and the second was a repetition of the first, with the exception of a clean knockdown scored by King. In the third Brother Fred tried to coach Brother Joe by mak- ing fistic motions, but it availed him not. Early in the fourth King let out a kink, and swinging his right uppercut MuMer | in the eye, closing it. He then followed | him around the ring administering blows | which, had they landed, would have ended | | hostilities.
