(Spectal 40 The Evening Wortd,) ATLANTA, Ga., March %.—Man- ager Wolverton of the Highlanders is trying to arrange a game for his team with the Boston Nationals for this city on Thursday afternoon, The Braves and the Hilltoppers have met three times in past years in in- terleague battles and ‘twice the American Leaguers have been re- turned winners, Since the New Yorks came into the American League in 13 they have won six games and lost five tn competition with National League clubs. They had defeated the Reds twice, beaten the Glants twice and lost to thom four times and defeated the Bostons twice. By reason of thelr success in contests with National League clubs in the past, Manager Wolver- ton is sure that if a game ts ar- ranged with the Bostons his boys will emerge the winners, Series of Three Games With Reds to Open Saturday at Cincinnati. Atlanta, March 3. Highlanders begin the five I final days of training here to- day. There has never been en- other training trip Ike the present one, but Manager Wolverton has not wasted any time in spite of all the bad weather. The team has lost only one @ay'a work, and there was a flood on that particular day. The New Yorks are scheduled to play the Atlanta Club to-day and to-mor- row, They have no more pee ached- wled then until they pac on Fri- day and leave for Cincinnat! Iand bemin @ series of threo.games with the Reds the following day. No doubt the leader of the New York club has made up his mind as to how his team will Hine up for the opening game, It will probably be just the way they have been playing in the exhibi- tion games with the Atlanta club. Wolverton acems to be well pleased with the material, and will now start wpon the task of picking out the extra men for the infleld and outfield, ‘Charlie Hempht!l and Wolverton were in conference for a long time Saturday night. Hemphill would like to secure some of the men Wolverton dot intend to keep. Something velop in that respect before leaves here Friday, but_no likely to be sold until the season is about to start, as the Colts have many exhibition games to play. Wolverton has been praising the work of Coleman and Stump, two new in- fielders, and may carry them, If he does not they will be placed in a good Jeagee. Both have shown the dig league style as far as the training trip goes, What they would do in big league contests remains to be seen, but they look promising. However, {t will not be long now before all that 1s settled.

BY JOHN POLLOCK, The National Sporting Club of Amer- {ca to-day made an offer of a $16,000 purse for a ten-round bout between Matt Wells, lightweight champlon England, and Packy McFarland of Chi- cago, the match to take place on a date convenient to both boxers. McFarland and Wells were matched to meet at Madison Square Garden, but the Garden lost its license before <he date of the contest, McFarland has never fought In New York except for the Fair- Mont A. C., and at present he ts under contract to Billy Gibson to box twice more for him there this year. Tommy Burns, the ex-heavyweight champion, is evidently sincere in his intention to get back into the fightng game, for ho has posted a forfeit of $140 with @ sporting editor of a newspaper at Alberta, Cun., and issued a chaileni to fight Jack Johnson for the heav weight championship of the world in twenty-round bout to take place on La bor Day afternoon at any place John- kn son selects, The following is a copy of the challenge which Burns sent to the big champion: Jack Johnson, Ohicago—I chal- lenge you for « twenty-round bat- tle, to be fought at any place yo may name, but I prefer Alberta, on Labor Day.
