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.

ing the greater part of the 1906 season
he was laid up with a bad leg and was
thought to be all In by Pittsburg. 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

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.

Jennings' American League Pen
nant Pursuers Going Fast
00N0VAN IN GREAT FORM
"Wild Bill" Evidently Intends tt
Eclipse His 1907 Pitching Perform

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

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.
