BOXING THRIYES IN GOTHMI
Ringside Sees a Bripht Future with
Jfew Commitiion and Increase
in State' Beocipts.
TO CARD SCEATS THIS SUMMER
NEW YORK, May 1. This promt""" to
The a fnort active summer for the grand
old pmc of boxing for Manhattan anil
environments. Matters puglllstio In this
segment of the universe have been In an
unsettled condition Blnoe the new admln-
itratlon went Into control, what with
a proposed completely reorganised per
sonnel la the boning commission, and an
Increase In the boxing receipt, tax from
t per cent to 7H per cent
These radical change, would appear to
lrove a hindrance to the game, but In
stead they will prove a boon and will tend
to plae the ring Kama on a higher plane.
The Increased tax will ntan tha ex
termination of a number of fly-by-4itght
duba. At present thera ar thlrty-filne
club remaining of tha original compl
roent of 141 that sprung "P when tba
Frewlev law went Into effect In thla
rtate. Greedy managers and grasping club
owners helped pare the large list, until
now there are only a few undesirable
clubs doing business.
Heretofore boxing In New Tork during
the summer months has been practically
dead. Not more than one or two duba
attempted to put on bouts during the
torrid spell, and their expenses absorbed
the receipts all the time. This last win
ter the boxing game In New York was
bordering the moribund stage, as not
more than three or four good bouts were
arranged during the entire sesaon.
But under the new order, boxing as
sume a roseate hue. for at left New
Yorkers are to hare some real flghtfrig
during the summer months. licenses
freely granted to open air clubs now In
the process of formation make such a
condition possible. Already the new clubs
re bidding for patronage, and the press
gents are dreaming of attractive
matches for their respective clubs.
Base ball parks and race courses are
.being impressed by - enterprising pro
moters far their fight arena. Syndicates
have been formed and flret rank bokert
placed under contract for opening shows.
And a strange coincidence Is that each
one of these clubs claims to have the ex
elusive right to match Jess Wlllard for
Ms first battle when he Is ready to return
to the ring. A. an old song runs. "Home
body lies." .
Disregarding the Wlllard angle. It-ln-deed
dons seem as i,f the sport will thrive
here during the supposed off ieaaon.
reparations are being made for Inaugural
boxing shows shortly at the grounds of
the Brooklyn National league ball club,
the park of the Brooklyn Federal league
ball club and the old Brignton ueacn
rare traok.' In this city BUly Gibson Is
considering a suitable site for an open
air arena 'It la Blllvum's fond hope to

Harry Pollock, manager of lightweight
Champion' Freddie Welsh, Is enmeshed In
the Brighton race track proposition; so
It Is a sinecure that the lightweight bos
will appear exclusively at the seaside
arena The Broadway Sporting club will
transfer Its paraphernalia to Efcbet's field
for the summer, and also Its policy of
conducting bouts between the leading
middleweight. Those In charge In the
port at Washington park the Urook
feds' heath will not specialise In any
particular division, bet will put on the
beet matches they can engineer.
Glbbaas anal Pachey. .
If Billy Gibson goes through with his
plana of conducting bouts In the open,
Ms card for Independence day will read
"Mike Glbhons vs. Packey McFerland,
fsnr the world's welterweight champion
ship." Packey has signified hie Intention of
returning to the ring for Just twf more
battles with Gibbons and Freddie Welsh.
The McFarland-Glbbone match has been
hanging fire ilnce last January, and
ha not been cmsumated because Packey
is waiting to see what the Illinois legis
lators will do with the boxing bill they
have under consideration. Packey Is
averse t traveling l.OOO miles to do hat
tla when he can have matters settled In
Ms own bark yard. t
Te Fight CUbby A gal a. -
Mkhaci Gibbons Is priming himself for
a busy campaign at his adopted profes
sion. The clove wlsard had been 'idling
for many weeks, but intends to get boey
in another fortnight; and he will not ba
content until he la universally recognised
the undisputed champion In the welter
n't middleweight divisions.
Mike's first opponent will be Jimmy
CiaUhy, an old acquaintance, whom he
will tax kit- fori twenty rounds in New
Orleans some time this month. This
will be Mike's first, effort over the
twenty round trail, as hes has never
fought more than fifteen rounds at one
time.
. Kveryhwdr After Wlllard.
A1. Reich and Jim Coffey have finally
been matched, and these heavyweights
who have been pestering Jeaa Wlllard
for a n atih, will settle their differences ;
at Madison Square Garden next Wed-.
lirndtiy evening (May t).
Thin pair have been nursing a grudge
asalnst ea".h other for over two years'!'
anil the fana are really eager to see them
square off In the ring. They will weight
almost the . same probably 2U6 pounds
each. a.H It should be quits a slamming 1
Jubilee while It lasts.
SayS Jennings Was
the Greatest of All
fcd Has Ion, famous aa the former man
ager of tha old Oriole aggregation and
iroLably the only Federal league mag
nate to retain the favor of Organised
Base Ball, believes that Hughey Jennings
In his playing days was the greatest
shortstop of all Urns. He says:
' Jennings was the greatest of short
stops. He never would budge from his
roition to cover on a nit and run flay
arntU he saw where the ball was hit. He
would take the throw over second while
on tha dead run and If there wag a
living chance he would get his man,

You and all the dtlxens of Omaha will

Important Issue. No doubt many of your
friends that are not particularly Inter
ested In base ball will pass up this Im
portant matter unless yon tell them It Is
a matter of vital Importance to you.
You are the ones that are Interested,
and now the time Is ripe for you to do
something to encourage the national pas
time. Get out and dig up votes for Bun
aay base ball and show the peoplo of
Omaha that the base balllsU have some
prestige. At the mass meeting held last

teur association held Its regular meeting
mki i-reaiaent Isaacson said that he
didn't care to hav. the association go
on record relative to the base ball ques
tion unless It was necessary, because he
was afraid that the candidates would
think that the association was endeavor

No matter If the houee burne down.
Or Mnmine wants to buy;
And If they ak you where I am.

I'm on my way to see 'em play.
And Mrk the Drummer dun;
We'll knock that gang all o'er the lot.
And on 'em rmt n ban.
Believe me boy, we've got some team;
We'll always set that way.
So let me be and bother not.
The Rourkes are here today. . ..
They shot an umpire In California a
short time ago. Tlpperary Tip ought to
end a few of .his present crop out there.
It Is mid Frank Baker Is listening for
the call of the game. Nix, he's listening
for the jingle of the roln.
Connie Mark is quoted as saying that
he wants no more of Baker, as Baker
went back on his word, treated the club
unfairly and that he has no time to treat
with a man who deals unfairly. Uh, huh.
Phil Ball, it Is said, wants to get la
Organised Ball After lamping the stand
ing of the Sloufeds In the percentage
table, we can't, blame him.
Jess Wlllard says foot ball Is brutal.
Probably J. Johnson would say the same
thing about J. Wlllard.
Larry Chappelle has gone back to Mil
