CHEIP FIGHTERS ONCE,
ON TIP WiVE HOW
How Fickle Fortune Has Re­
warded the Sons of
Swat.
If any one of the contrasts in the
ring is to be especially commented
upon at .present, it is the difference in
financial status prevailing among some
of the men who are on the center of
the stage just at present and that
existing a few years ago. Take Abe
Attell, for instance. When he won
from George Dixon in the fall of 1901
he had just been brought from the
west by Jack McKenna. Attell had
made quite a reputation, in a mild
way, by fighting a couple of draws
with Dixon, but no manager had come
forward to claim him. MicKenna pick­
ed him up and decided to take him
east. He had found Abe hanging
around Young Corbett's training quar­
ters in Denver.
Abe fought Harry Forbes once and
Broad a couple of time in St. Louis
and then wjent on with Benny Yanger.
This was the biggest house he had
battled before in his career, the re­
ceipts being more than $4,000. Yanger
got the verdict, the police stopping the
fight in the nineteenth. Out of the
amount won Attell received exactly
$15. Today Abe is able to draw down
$1,500 for a six-round go in Philadel­
phia and is credited with making
money rapidly.
Mike Schreck, who can now com­
mand a fair-seized sum in any battle,
fought one of the hardest scraps of
his career in January, 1902, at St.
Louis, with Hugo Kelly. The fight
went fifteen rounds and there was a
total of $7,000 in the house. The fight­
ers divided $400. In their next go
they drew $8,000. Today the same
fight would draw more than that many
thousands on the coast.
Jack (Twin) Sullivan, after fighting
to small houses with Jack O'Brien at
Philadelphia and Boston in 1903, went
to St. Louis in 1904. O'Brien had never
appeared there and was a drawing
card. A house probably representing
$1,500 turned out to see them. O'Brien
had asked $1,000 flat for his end, which
did not leave much for the club and
Sullivan. Sullivan and O'Brien would
draw several thousands of dollars If
they met.
The same evening that Jack Sullivan
was knocked out his* brother Mike,
now mentioned as a candidate for the
welterweight championship, won a
preliminary. He received the magnifi­
cent sum of $50 for his share.
Surely the course of time makes
changes in prize ring affairs as well
as anywhere else.

TRYOUT
Manager Eddie Herr and His Win­
nipeg Team Begin Prac­
tice Games.
The Winnipeg, Northern Copper
Country league team under the leader­
ship of J. M. Lamb and Manager Eddie
Herr, began the season's practice in
this city yesterday afternoon when the
last of the candidates arrived from
their respective homes. Mr. Lamb is
one of the three directors of the Win­
nipeg team, and although he will not
manage the club this year, as he has
in seasons past, he will remain with
it during the practice games, the first
of which will be played at Minnehaha
park with the Toozes.
Eddie Herr, the new manager, is a
St. Louis man who has been playing
baseball in the Western leagues for
the past ten years. He is a pitcher and
last year twirled good ball for the St.
Joseph team of the Western league.
The puzzle problem of Minnesota
towns still attracts the interest of our
young readers. Several perfect ans­
wers were received during the week.
The names of the successful guessers
will be published later.
The following are the correct ans­
wers for last week:
Terry, X)jinn,^ Gle^cke, Sawyer and
Wills catchers, Voss and Crisp first
basemen, Luderous and O'Nell second
basemen, Ryan^and Dougherty third
.base* ...Welder __shortstop. King and
Sassenbach outfielders, Henderson,
Monroe, Piper And-Cox. Of these men
five are known, to be favorable and
with fourteen(men,to pick the .remain­
der of the team from, the outlook is
bright.
In speaking of the team, Mrt Lamb
said: "I think we will have a good,
team, although without first seeing the
regulars together, there would be little
chance to predict anything. Winnipeg
is a good baseball town and there is
no reajson why the fans' should not be
given an opportunity to uphold a win­
ning club. Of course, the season will
not begin for nearly a month, but
what I Have seen of the candidates
pleases me and I can safely say that
our new manager, Eddie Herr, is the
right man in the right place."
The prfsehi -idea of a four-team
league does not altogether please me,"
continued Mr. Lamb, "but I would
much rathtr see four reliable organiza­
tions, such as we have, than six. or
eight clubs to begin with and probably
a wrecked league before the season
was half over. We have the four best
cities in the Northern Cojuntry this
season and I personally think that the
season will be a success in every re­
spect."
WHY IS HACKENSCHMIDT7*
This Charley Hackenschmidt, who
professes to be a wrestler, was thrown
again in Chicago the other night by
some terrible Dane who had also suc­
ceeded fairly well in eluding the swat
of the Goddess of Fame.
Hack has been posing around the
Northwest as a wregtler for a year or
two, but has failed to show sufficient
class to entitle him to meet any of the
good ones in the game. His name
sounds good on account of its striking
similarity to that of the "Russian
Lion," but all resemblance appears to
end right then and there. Charles has
been thrown almost as often as A1
Weinig has been licked and that's a
whole lot.
On the showing he is making as a
wrestler it would not seem out of place
to advise this Hack, to forswear the
mat game and get a job rustling a
rusty hoe in some garden patch. There
are a lot of such situations "open for
acceptance" just now.
ESTIMATE OF BILL SQIURES
Tim MicGrath, the American trainer
who brought out Tom Sharkey and de­
veloped him into the man that gave
Jeffries the most terrific' battle in his
entire career, has taken charge of Bill
Squires' preparation for his American
fights and will tain the Australian
champion. McGrath is considered one
of the greatest judges, of fighters in the
world and his estimate of the anti­
podean is well worth while. liere Is
what he says of "Boshter Bill:"
I believe Bill Squires is a better
fighter than Bob Fitzsimmons or Tom
Sharkey.
This may sound pretty strong to you
on short notice. You will say that no
man can judge a fighter unless he has
seen him fight and that there's many
a man has gone broke backing "morn­
ing glories," but I stick to my word—
Bill Squires will be the world's cham­
pion inside of six months or sooner
if he can get on a m^tch with'Jeffries
in less time.
How to Judge a Real Fighter.
The layman who knows fighting
from sitting at the ringside and watch­
ing two boys exchange wallops is
hardly a judge of fighters, even after
seeing them work, but the man that
grows up with them, who has handled
them in every period of their develop­
ment, who has seen hundreds of them
fight and taught hundreds how to
fight, comes to know fighters even
as the expert horseman can walk into
a field and single out from among the
leggy colts capering through the blue
grass the future kings and queens of
the turf from the mere selling platers
and never-can-bes.
To me a fighter is like a race horse
to a great student of the horse. I
judge him on his points. I stttly him
as a piece of fighting machmery. I
take stock in his bone, his muscle, his

height," weight, girth, depth through
the heart, the proportion of his limbs,r
the way his muscles are'developed and
their' quality, the color and texture of
his hair, the color and .texture of his
skin, his eyes, his mouth, the char­
acteristics of his face. his head, .his
hands, his feet and his body.
When I have gone over him with my
mental tapeline and the. actual figures
in feet and inches, ounces .and pounds,
then I'study him as a thinking ma­
chine. Has he the speed of thought,
tha quickness and .responsiveness' of
brain and muscle, the insight of a
fighter?
8tudies Squires in 8leipb
I study him at rest, when he is off
his guard, when he is alf wrought up,
at .play and work, awake and asleep.
You will laugh when I say asleep, and
yet the man betrays his inriter self as
of en, if not oftener, in his sleep than
in his waking hours, when he wears
a conventional mask.
This study, which is exhaustive, but
does not' require very much time, has
mean while been supplemented by a
view Of my man In action.
With the double estimate it does
not take me very long to find out
whether my fighter is a stake horse
or a mere selling plater.
Jack O'Brien and Billy Nolan.
Doesn't It sound like a vaudeville Joke
Say, after a double eagle goes through
the hands of Jack and his new man­
ager there won't be a pinfeather left
on it it'll get such a squeezing.
Poor old Bob Fitzsimmons gets out
every now and then and makes a
noise like a real fighter. He has
offered to stop Jack O'Brien in ten
rounds. Bob must have been watch­
ing the bubbles rise in the laughing
water that night. It puts the thoughts
of childhood into one's head, it is said.
ONE LONE CHANCE.
Lewis keeps up his howl about
wanting to meet Joe Gans, and there
appears to be a chance for a great
debate between these fellows. It looks
like more goulash for the Buffalo. It
is the old process of putting the
thoroughbred against the truck horse
with the Lewis lad having but the one
chance of getting Gans with one wild
punch.
On, the boxing end of the game
Lewis has no more business with Gans
than a bush league pitcher lobbing
them up to Hannus Wagner. Lewis
is a stiff mixer who cannot cover up
away from Gans, and he has an an­
esthetic in either airm. He can never
land it with the Baltimore dinge
watching. He might get in wild with
it and stow Gans away* but it Is the
oqly chance.
Gans in condition can hit Lewis un­
til it will sound like grandmother
walloping the sitting room rag car­
pet. He will get him down and out
within twenty rounds, as he will shake
up his nerve centers, a thing he was
unable to do to Nelson on account of
the latter's wonderful growth of bone.
There appears to be only orfe grand
finish to the Lewis-Gans affair, and
that is Gans whenever he gets ready.
ULLRICH IS BUSY.
Duluth papers keep up talk of vic­
tories of Curley Ullrich over the bush
champions of the Northern part of the
state.
There is much genuine regret locally
that the governor saw fit to stop box­
ing in Minneapolis before Curley Sup­
ples got a chance at the head of the
lakes Curley kid. Supples was to have
weighed in at 152 pounds and the
trimming he would have given this
Duluth combatant would have caused
more enjoyment than we have had
since the hired girl set -fire to the
Christmas tree.
There is a feeling in Minneapolis
that His Excellency, Governor John A.
Johnson saved Ullrich from about the
worst beating on record since they
cleaned the rug In the mayor's recep­
tion hail. And there were quite a few
folks willing to dispose of a couple of
bucks, each, to see the performance.
TEDDY MURPHY'S PROPOSITION.
Teddy Murphy wrote here that he
was going to put on a'couple of fight­
ers at the Eagle's show In Milwaukee.
One will be Tony Caponi, and a light­
weight. Now, Teddy wrote a very
fair letter to- Billy Kingston of Duluth,
saying he would match his man Ca­
poni against Tom McCune or Jack
Parries—split the purse or winner take
all and will make a side bet, if either
McCune or Parries' managers want 4*
The News Tribune published the
challenge and Billy Kingston has full
authority to make the match. This is
a phance for McCune or Parries to
show the lovers of the art of self
defense how good they are. Murphy
agrees that his man will stop either
one of the Head of the Lakes fighters
in fifteen rounds. This would be one
of the greatest pugilistic events seen
in this part of the country, in many
years, as both MicCune and Parries
are game men and clever.
A FINE COMBINATION.
Mother,, please rise up and aree who's
arrived! It's Bill Nolan and Jack
O'Brien. Report has it that Nolan
will manage O'Brien for a tour of
England with O'Brien slated with a
meeting with Gunner Moir.
If Bill Nolan pursues his usual tac­
tics Miolr will be compelled to:
Cut off his right arm.
Wear an eight-ounce glove on his
left fist.
Permit himself to be blindfolded or
permanently blinded as Nolan may
elect upbn due deliberation.
Promise not to hit O'Brien in a
vulnerable spot.
Agree to weigh In, with his teeth
extracted and hid head shaved at 122
pounds, ten minutes after t$ie referee
orders to ring cleared.
Give O'Brien 99 'per (Stent of the
purse, picture privileges cash arid
chatauqua lecture platform receipts.
Then after Gunner is trimmed up
this way and the contract signed and
sealed Nolan' will probably ask the
National Sporting Club for $3,000,000
for signing tip the fight.
