London, Feb. 15. It 1 on to Ireland X for Tommy Burn now. The American champion Is to meet Jem Roche, the ehampkm of Ireland, at the Theater Royal, Dublin, on St. Patrick's day, and ail sporting Ireland la talking of the ;, tight Tho demand for aeata haa been ' Moat gratifying to the, promoters of the ': match. I understand that a number of , the peerage and other society men have engaged aeata to sea the mill, and It '' la stated that more than one lady of . high degree will watch the two giadi " ators battle for the world's champlon- ship. It may be said that fight promoters on this side the water are tnoroughly alive to their ability to charge ana re , eelve big prices for an opportunity to , see a world's championship fight. In u recent advertisement of the Burrm- Roche go, 1 find this scale of charges tor the Theatre Royal event. State seats, lb 6s; boxes (to hold 7). xrom tl ifts; arena circle, is 8a, rarterre, 12 2s; upper circle tfull), 1 la This Is the equivalent of 27.B0 for a ringside seat and 17.60 for a place In the tup gallery, and a month before the fight the lower-priced .seats all were sold. It Is confidently believed that there will not be an unsold seat In the ao use on the night of the fight. . This beats grand opera and Indicates that British fight promoters have noth ing to learn along this line from their akrewd cousins across the water. r . I' f V .Wi,'-it-.s.. Eddie Kinsella, Portland's Star Pitcher. Who Is Asking Manager Walter McCredle for a Salary, Which Is Pronounced to Be Exhorbltant for a Player of His Type by the Local Magnate. " I notice that there is a good deal of discussion and more or less difference , of opinion In the states as to the : welgiita of the different classes of ttghtera. Here Is the Kngllsh scale as laid down for the championships - of the Amateur Boxing association, .' which are to be fought at Alexandra palace on April 16: Bantam. H stone. 4 nnnil (nni tn ; 11 pounds); feather, I) stone (124 pounds): light, 10 atone (140 pounds); iniddle, 11 atone, 4 pounds (168 pounds); heavy, any weight. These weights govern the fighting game here, end there is little disput ing over weights. Perhaps the fight ing men ef the states might learn something from thU aide in thla line, even it the Kngllsh fighters seem un b!a to stand up against the American. Going back to the Burns-Roche fight It may be Interesting for Americana to know the terms of the match. .

Watson as referee, aa well a nominate the timekeeper. One feature of the prizefighting game In i ranee which seems strange to Kng llsh and Americana is the large at - tendance of women at the matches. In . tact, they seem to be most enthusi astic witnesses of the battles. , At a , . recent International tournament in Which an Englishman George Moore, fought Adolphe, a Frenchman, there : ueany as many women aa men present Paris may, by the way, solve the , American pugilistic color line question. J : Mackey, an American negro, haa gotten on several matches at the French capital, and is a favorite with the fight- .. In public Johnson and the other American negroes who are barred by the white fighters In the states might ind Paris a profitable field for a while, at least It is hardly likely that the challenge or the American Intercollegiate Ath- letlc association for an international meet will be accepted by the English ; universities. At a recent meeting of the Oxford University Athletlo associa tion the question was discussed, and It was decided to consult with Cam bridge concerning the challenge, but the lee ling in Oxford is strong against ac a ceptlng the challenge. The recent death of that fine, all ; round sportsman and athlete, "Joss" Redcliffe, recalls, perhaps, one of the most remarkable sporting feats on rec- oNI, of which Radcliffe was the hero. He waa an exceptionally good man In . all classes of sport. When over 43 : years of age, he backed himself to run, wim, row, ride a horse and ride a bicycle a Quarter of a mile each i event and all within a quarter qX an I hour. He woo with something in hand.

Watt Shipp. the Capital City magnate, who will hold the Salem fran chise, came down with the Elks' excur sion and spent the greater part of Fri day figuring with the Oregon Electric Railway company for the exclusive use of a floe tract of ground for a ball park. The plan Is to erect a fine grand stand and clubhouse and enclose the grounds with a high tight board fence. The grounds will be ample and are lo cated on the carllne within a few mo ments' ride of tha heart of the city. Considerable enthusiasm has been man ifested by the Salem fans who want organized Dan again, saiem at one time was one of the best towns ln the Ore gon Btate league and will loyally sup port a in-t,ity league team. Mr. Shlpp has not signed any talent as yet. but is willing to listen to the applications of players ror places on the Salem team. He states that he will try 'to have a pennant winner when he enters the field. The negotiations for grounds which are now pending will come to a defi nite understanding this coming week. Secretary Smith of the Tri-CIty re ceived a letter from T. N. Kennedy, the Woodburn magnate, stating that Wood burn fans would support Saturday ball this season, and that the outlook was much brighter than last season for at tendance at both Sunday and Saturday ball. Jack Helsor and Arthur Pender, who will own the Vancouver team ln the Trl-CUy league this year, are leaving no stones unturned to have everything In readiness for tho opening of the league season In April. They have prac tically closed a deal for grounds close ln on the carllne and are signing up players. Helser reports that the fans hall with Joy the establishing of a Tri City league team in Vancouver and the proposition "looks good to him." C. A. Partlow, who has the Oregon City franchise, is working quietly, rounding up players for his team, and is meeting with success in finding them. The Oregon City ball park will he put in condition as soon as the weather will permit, and the team ordered out for practice. There will be a great crop of ball tossers trying for positions on Trl-Clty league teams this season. Secretary Smith has 2d applications from players who are anxious to cavort in Tri-CIty uniforms and every man prings in rou or five. These applications are re fori- to the leasrue managers as the come in. There is no doubt but some good talent may be picked up. New York's latest models fine shoes can be seen at Kosenmai s.
