St Louis, JuneJ2. (Special Tele-gram.)-f-Nelsori
-Whitney. Arthur
Bonebrake, Rifhard Bockenkamp and
James Nugent are the semi-finalists
in the transmississippl '.. tourney.
Nelson Whitney of. New Orleans,
formerly southern ",golf champion,
demonstrated some of the golfing
class which gave him the southern
title when he, , yesterday, defeated
R, . Knepper of Sioux City, 6 and
5, in the third round of the cham-
fpionship flight in-the transmissis
sippl tournament on tne. turn at tne
eighth hole. c N 4T
The menwere even and the youth
ful Iowan . had shown a brand of
golf which seemed ; certain to at
least make the favorite in the' bet
ting play his hardest to win, but in
the afternoon play on the final lap
of the match Whitney outdistanced
the Sioux City man and there was
never any doubt as to who would
wiw the match after the two had
driven from the first tee. Knepper
drove beautifully : during ; the (first
half of the flay and only lost sev
eral holes through hard luck in strik
ing the sand hazards- In the after
noon his driving and putting alike
fell off and he was an easy victim
for the older player.

plain the match better than any
written articles regarding them, but
tiie attention of readers is drawn
to the clause which' provides for a
linish match, best two out of three
falls, which assures a positivewin
ner, -except in case one or the other
of the contestants shall receive a
broken - bone during the match,
which shall be determined upon by
tv.-o reputable physicians.
The referee for the match must
be agreed upon by the principals at
ieast 48 hours before the match and
if they are unable to make a selec
tion at that time, the promoter, Gene
Melady is empowered to appoint a
referee. ; , . ,
The promoter , of the match has
been trying for . three yeas, ever
since -their memorable bout here, to
bring these two man together again.
Sandow insisted that the match
would draw better in New York
or Chicago than it would in Omaha,
but through arguments presented
by everyone in the room,, he was
prevailed upon to- accept the view
that Omaha was the logical city in
which to have such a match staged.
- It was pointed out to him that
erery persotv that witnessed the
first bout would be present to see
the resumption f hostilities and a
host of others who missed the other
show. The greater reputations of
both men will draw men from, alt
over the country to 4?e the match
and a great number of them will
forego the championship mill at
Toledo for" this affair.
The Strangler's manager insisted
upon a guarantee for his man and it
was last week defeated for the state
title by E. A. Campbell bf Wichita.
and who in turn eliminated Camp
bell irom the present tourney by de
feating him in the- first round of
play, won easily from J. L. Johnston
of the St. Louis Country club. j
. Nugent Defeats Gutnand.
Bonebrake's putting , was the big
feature of his game, although his
driving was also , of an "-unusual
character. James E. Nugent of
Kansas City, president of the Trans
mississippi ' tournament . found the
going a bit hard at the outset oi his
match with B. G. Guinand, another
youthful golfer from ..Omaha- and
was only 2 up at the close of 'eigh
teen holes but in the afternoon
Nugent struck his stride and
romped home an easy winner of
the match. ? ... . '" '
To : Richard Bockenkamp, a
product of ..the Muny links of St.
Louis, falls the task of defending
that city's golfing reputation for he
is the only survivor from the Mis
souri town. Brockenkamp found
L. B. Bromfield. .Colorado cham
pion, off his stride and won by a big
margin. The day was perhaps the
warmest of the year and the thirty
six hole ' grind proved ' gruelling,
even to the veteran golfers.

looked as though the deal would
fall through, as Melady is opposed
to paying guarantees for any sort
of . sporting event, but Jack Curley
came into the argument and settled
it with a proposition to pay San
dow $9,000 for his end of the purse,
which is to be 60 per cent of the
receipts and will all go to the win
ner, the- men agreeing to wrestle
winner-take-all. . Sandow asked for
another $500 from Curley and the
famous wrestling "trust" agreed to
pay it, after Carl Marfisi asked per
mission to get in " on it for one
"third. -i-4
Should Lewis win, he will get
$9,500 and Curley and Jfclarfisi will
get 60 per cent of the gross receipts
of the show. Curley said that
Zbyszko would share in that as
well, he getting an equal cut of one
third. Had he not agreed to under
write Lewis' end, the match would
never have been made, for ; San
dow was so insistent that he would
have called off the entire deal un
less he could get the guarantee.
When the articles were agreed up
on and signed and the checks de
posited, each calling for $1,500, a
general sigh of relief went up from
all concerned. The articles were
witnessed by Kid Graves, sporting
editor of The Bee; McRae, sporting
editor of The. Bee; J. N. McCrae,

Toledo. June 12. Working under

boxed six rounds today" after reel
ing off five miles on the road early
in the morning. The champion went
through .. his exhibition before a
crowd that packed the tented walls
of the Maumee Bay camp." There
were nearly as many women in the
crowd as men.
Wiljard stepped three full three
minute sessions with Jack Hempel
and then Walter Monahan donned
the gloves for a similar length -of
time. Half a dozen titnes the cham
pion dropped his hands to his sides
and permitted his sparring partners
to hit him when and where they
pleased. " ' '
Ray Archer," Willard's business
representative.X announced tonight
that a heavyweight named Ketchel
would report in camp tomorrow1 to
relieve Monahan. Archer said
Ketchel, a product of the navy, is
a 192-pounder with an offense -similar
to that of the challenger. r
Dempsey, whose damaged tyt is
healing nicely, will not be permitted
