' - "Texas" Rlckard'a Offer of $30,000 Purse For Pair to Moot on Labor Day Haa Boon Accepted Nolton Surety Entitled to Championship. With Joe Gans finally deprived of the lightweight championship the fu ture battles for those honors come up for discussion. "Wboovlll be Battling Nelson's next opponent T" Is the Ques tion being asked at the various boxing headquarters throughout the country. There are not very many first class boxers In line to take on the Dane, and Packey McFarland Is the choice of the fight fans. Whether he will be the Dane's next adversary Is a question. His contest with Freddie Welsh, which resulted In a draw, may have a ten dency to have him seek another battle with the Englishman or with others before he tackles Nelson for the honors. Of course the return match recently made with Joe Gans, scheduled for next Labor day (Sept 7) at Ely, Nev, should tinder ordinary circumstances become the Dane's next bout, but there has developed a probability that the fight will be postponed, and that Nei- son will take on some other man be fore clashing with the dusky Bald- morean. McFarland was given a draw with Welsh by Jim Jeffries and. Is down cast over the decision, particularly since Nelson whipped Gans. If he bad decisively beaten the Englishman, there Is no question but that be would be Kelson's next opponent Since Mc Farland secured only a draw the new lightweight champion probably will take on some one else until the Chi cago lightweight whips Welsh, as he says he wishes to do. He is eager for a return match and, as Jeffries wants to stage It before his club, there Is a possibility of their getting together goon. - ' , Outside of Welsh and McFarland tnere are no iigntweignts who are thought to be made of championship timber, and It is more than likely ttat no others will be taken seriously until one or the other or both have met Nel son. . .... ...... ... ,. . It will now be Interesting to note the effect on the lightweight situation with Nelson as champion. The Dane is not a clever boxer and is not even a first class fighter, for the reason that he does not know how to hit But he Is an exceedingly tough proposition for any man to stop and is thoroughly game. He loves a mlxup, and blows that would stop an ordinary fighter do well, after tSe Ytaent fight he 'remark ed that ho has saved so much of the vile stuff that he doesn't krow how to spend it legitimately.

In the early part of 1907 the club released him to Boston. Since Joining Dovey's team Beaumont has played a star game In center garden, bis leg showing no signs of weakness whatever. 1'resl dent Pulllam says Beaumont Is the "handsomest man in baseball today." WHO IS CLEVELAND? JONAH BAITXINO NELSON, WOBLD'S OHAMPIOX LIGHTWEIGHT. not seem to trouble blm In the least. His habit of keeping bis bead down makes it very hard to -get to his Jaw, and many a fighter has broken his hands on his thick, hard skull. Nelson Is pretty sure to make every man he fights weigh In at the lightweight limit 133 pounds ringside. No champion in the world ever had the fights that Battling Nelson has bad to get the honors. He has met every : good man of his weight in the world. ! There was no sidestepping in his. The tougher they were the better he liked them; the faster they were the quicker they dropped. Unlike many of the i other white fighters, be didn't shy at j the great colored man who headed his ' class. I A story of Nelson's life by himself j would undoubtedly be one of the most j interesting sporting books ever writ-1 ten. He has In a few years' time work- j ed himself up from a waiter in a cheap New Orleans lunch room to the highest place in the lightweight division of the , pugiliBtJc world. And. as for money Lajoio's Bluts the Most Unlucky Team In tho American League. There is no denying the fact that the Cleveland Americans are hoodooed by accidents. Year after year some one or two star players are incapacitated. Several years ago Manager Lajoie was ont for nearly an entire season with a bad ankle. Then Bill Bradley bad bis arm broken and was out of the game quite a long time. Last year Terry Turner, "Nig" Clarke, narry Bemis and Addle Joss were the vie- i tiros. Elmer Flick, the Naps' star out 1 fielder, had to quit last summer and only returned to his team the other day. This year the hospital list has been a large one. Fully eight members of the team have been laid up time and again since the season opened. The most recent member was First Base man George Stovall, who had his left wrist sprained and several ligaments torn. He will be out for a month or more, and now comes the news that an X ray examination of Terry Tnr I ner's arm lias disclosed the fact that one of the muscles of his injured shoul der' is presKing on a nerve. This causes tho shortstop great pain when ever he throws a ball.- "Cotton Top' will be of little use to Cleveland this year. . It would be foolish to say that Cleveland is the only club that is crip pled each year by accidents to players, for such Is not the case, but the truth of the matter is that It Is generally the player that Cleveland can spare the least that Is hurt, while with the other teams their stars manage to keep in the game most of the time. It Is certainly very hard luck for Manager Lajoie. Sweet Mario After Saddle Records. It Is possible that before this season is over Sweet Marie, 2:02, the great daughter of the renowned Mc Kinney, 2:11 will have added several more records to her already long and sensa tional list. Last season this remarka ble trotter did great things on the mile and half mile tracks, breaking records wherever she went with apparent ease, but this season she will be trained to give exhibitions under saddle with the express purpose In view of lowering the present world's record of 2:14 made by Charley Mac over the Glen ville track in 1004. ridden by O. K. G. Billings. W. J. Andrews has asked H. K. Dvereux, the well known ama teur reinsman, to ride Sweet Marie an exhibition mile at one of the Grand Circuit meetings this season, which he has agreed to do. Andrews has Sweet Marie in training and will prepare her for her season's exhibition campaign, which will consist of harness and sad dle events. CI DETRQITREPEAT Jennings' American League Pen nant Pursuers Going Fast 00N0VAN IN GREAT FORM "Wild Bill" Evidently Intends tt Eclipse His 1907 Pitching Perform aneo Won Eight Straight Teair PlaylngAggreMiveBe.il. Will Hugh Jennings again land the American league pennant with bit crappy Detroit Tigers? This la the question tbe fans on Ban Johnson circuit are pondering over. It Is quite early for a prediction, but tho vora clous, clawed team nugh Jennings hai In charge showed such true gauumess, so much pluck on their first eastern trip in climbing from last place to first or ao close to the top they grablied nl It that they most figure In the calcula tlona. Then, too, "Wild Bill" Donovan Is pitching better ball at this time of the season than he did last This is say Ing some. Evidently Bill Is out to eclipse his ltW record, which wn dandy, he winning twenty-four out of twenty-eight games. This season ho won the first eight games pitched, and when it is taken into consideration that It was really bis twirling that won last year's pennant tbe Tigers' chances for tbe 1903 flag are greatly improved. It was said at tbe close of last sea son that Donovan was all In, that be hod been overworked and thnt he on shot his bolt nnd would never be the same pitcher again. Many people do think that Bill was overworked so much .to win the championship of his own league last fall that he was not In his true form to meet the Chicago Cubs, but that does not mean that the Tigers would have beaten the Cubs bad Donovan not been right fur from it for tbe Cubs, Just at the world series time, outclassed tho Tigers. Donovan Is going Btrong now, and his team Is batting strong behind bun and when tho Tigers get their old biff sticks to working together they come pretty near to being tbe real article, Both Jennings and Donovan got very wrathy with tbe umpires on their first eastern trip, Jennings especially, and he has had trouble with various umpires since. He has been under President John son's ban so often that now be may have accumulated more sense than be appeared to carry In his red topped noddle since bis first sojourn In tbe east Hughey Is a star on tbe coaching lines, and fans want to see blm out there In every game. The V ' "5 i s A I "v'' tim "WILD BILL" DONOVAN, ST An PITCHES OF DETROIT AMEIIICAN8. Tigers, too, who are now right on the Job, cannot afford to lose their man ager's electric personality. With Cobb, Crawford and Mclntyre. Detroit undoubtedly has the greatest batting and fielding outfield that ever represented any team on tho Ameri can league circuit, and In Davy Jones, who Is warming the bench, there's another one who would strengthen most any club In either of the big leagues. Unless St Louis makes another big spurt it looks as if Detroit Is going to walk away with the pennant again. They have all the. confidence in the world, and Jennings is keeping them full of ginger. He keeps them "kid ding" each other all tho time, and there is a vein of mischief running through the team that shows how well the men are working together fn spirit as well as in play. FINANCIAL J.
