BEST SPORTING PAGE IN NEW YORK Wells has made 133 pounds ily for Brown, says Manager McDonald, and then he tells us we know nothing about putting on or taking off weight. 8. GEORGE M'DONALD, man- ager of Matt Wells, dropped in yesterday afternoon to tell us that Wells has made the weight #0 easily that he is finishing his Jong trail ing period with three days of almost complete rest, merely strolling about « little on the road to keep his muscles Umber and his joints well offed. “Wells has made the weight without losing a particle of strength—certaint: ald Mr, McDonald. “In England we know how to train jockeys or fighters. In America, you don't know anything about it. Why, the way your fighters eat in America is most amazing to any sane main. I remember going down on @ train with Jim Hall when he was to fight Piizimmons tn the South, All the way down, at stations, Hall was eating great hunks of your American pie! Imagine {t! Pie! When I told Charlie Mitchell about !t he nearly fainted. In the ring, of course, Hall was like Papke the other night—very soxey! “We know how to train and how to eat. You Americans don't do enough Toad work before a fight. We English are on the road, walking and exercising Ughtly, all the time, We don't overeat. When American jockeys come to Eng- Jand and learn our system of keeping fit they stop growing fat and really get into very good shape. “Yes, Wells is fit, and he'll surprise you.

I'll tell you @ Uttle one myself that Mr. Morgan prob- ably doesn't know about yet. Does Mr. Morgan know why le didn't get Brown matched with Wolgast? Mr. Morgan was dickering with Tom O'Day, the California promoter, here in New Yott, ‘When Brown's end of a match was all wrranged O'Day started West to talk Jones into line.

The real knockout blow is a harp, jarring blow, not a Of course some fighters can the crusher with sudden snap that gives it the deadening qualitios. ‘Without that snap the heaviest punch {g merely a violent shove. Fitzsimmona was the hardest hitter of his time. Fitz was very exact and Geliderate in placing his fists.

He drove in his blows with the sudden snappy Quality that stuns, Jeffries learned his style of hitting from Fitzsimmons, but he was more of a battering ram -a crusher—than Fitz, He didn't knock his men out as quickly, although he knocked them out.

ONS WEIEMED ONLY (68 Pours “THE WARDEST WUTTER, Miller Huggins Gives Giant Roo _Disease Midget Cantinats | Base Run- ning Comes Near Causing Downfall of Local Team. BY BOZEMAN BULGER. NIFTY pinch of base running by Miller Huggins in the last inning of the opening game with the Cardinale came as near giving the Giants heart disease as anything that has struck them this summer, and in- cidentally put the fang back in their seats with a gaap. After that one safe blow by a Cardinal batter end the old game would have been up salt river. Devore gave fandom its firet symptom f heart disease when he muffed Hug- tera fell down, however, and there wae a certain degree of comfort in the alr. The next batter got a base on balls. ‘Then came the nerve crusher, An easy @rounder was hk straight at Fietoher, and it would have been the third out, Dut the infield forgot to figure on Hug- gins. This tittle Cardinal wonder, tn- stead of hoofing it for third dn @ hurry, slowed up in front of Fletcher and danced a jig long enough to make the Giant shortstop lose sight of the ball, n he Jumped over it and hiked on. Having lost the direction of the ball for a moment, Fletcher made a bad | fumble and everybody was safe. With | the bases full and two out, the fans all of a gudden realized that @ single would tle up the score and @ double would probably win the game, Then it was that Marquard tightened up and suc seeded in retiring the last batter.
