RIG SUCCESS
Philadelphia, Pa., Jan. 16. Jack O'Brien today closed two star attractions for his American Athletic club here, the first of which will bring Jack Johnson and Sam Langford together within six weeks for a six round battle. While O'Brien refuses to give the details it is understood that both men have agreed to put up $2,500 forfeits within the next week and that they will fight for a $10,000 purse. The second attraction is one In which Battling Nelson will have his tryout on St. Patrick's day. Nelson today put his signature to the blank contract as to his opponent, being willing to meet any man in his class. He will spend a month in Honolulu in an effort to get in condition. ,

Everything is in readiness for' the monster wrestling carnival to be given tonight at Dexter 'park pavilion for the, benefit of the widows and orphans
killed in the recent stock yards fire.
The event, which is under the auspices of the Chicago Athletic association, promises to be one of the greatest ever held in this city, and one that will long be remembered by those who give it their support. The officials of the Cherry Circle club have been untiring in their efforts to
make the meeting a success and have pulled every string to get men well up in the wrestling gam. The result has been that Champion Frank Gotch, George Hackenschmidt, the "Russian Lion," and one of the men who is after the title holder's scalp, Yuslf Mahmout, the Bulgarian, who, Gotch says, is one of the best mat men in America today. Charles ("Kid") Cutler and oth
er local and foreign mat stars harVe agreed to make up the entertainment. The spirit of charity shown by some of these riven who really have no interest in the affair personally Is something to wonder at. On the plea of the men in charge they have comn from all parts of the country at their own expense to aid the unfortunate and the support of the sporting public, which, when it gets right down to brass tacks,
is made up of a good portion of charity, will more than compensate them for their trouble and travels of many
miles.
From the present outlook it appears that there will be a huge crowd on
hand. The prices, considering the stel
lar attraction and the cause for which it is being given, are nominal. Owing to the great interest and the long card of wrestling bouts the first event will be started promptly at 5 o'clock. The door will open at 7 o'clock In order that every one will be able to get into the building and be seated before the first bout on the card is staged.
The stag committee of the Hammond
Athletic association are to be con- ; gratulated on every side for not only the program prepared by them, but for the way it was run off. The enter-! tainment was advertised to begin at ' 8:15 and exactly at that time the ref-: eree's whistle blew to start the basketball game. , ! The H. A. A. lost the game by the score of 36 to 30. They were beaten by gentlemen, gentlemen of the Eplph- 5 any church team of Chicago. Every member of this team seemed to move as part of their well oiled basket- 1 shooting machine. The local team was in the lead until the very last two minutes of play, when the visitors spurted ahead and won by a margin of six points. ! The Garden City Quartet came next with several selections, which were very pleasingly given. Charles Rhode accompanied them on the piano, also playing throughout the evening. The gymnastics were exceptionally j
nne. utto Hudson and Mr. Buck performed on the parallel bars, while Hugh Murphy, Carl Johnson and Joe Dubb did many tumbling stunts. J. G. Carr gave several Irish selec
tions which were received with a great amount of applause. Dr. Davis, ac- j
companied by Mr. Moore, rendered several cornet solos, which were highly
pleasing to those present. Im Hoffman, the Bijou haberdasher, acted in the capacity of a magician Saturday evening. His work was on the order of that of Keller. Mr. Hoffman is undoubtedly one of tire best young magicians living today. He performed the trunk mystery in something less than six seconds, which is said by those who know to be faster than any other magician can do the Fair.- niece of work. The boxing and wrestling matches were very good. The wrestling especially, as Warner and Gustafson, the Swede of Itoseland, 111., wrestled for
half an hour, when the match was stopped onil called a draw. Financially the stag was a great success, as will be seen according to the number present. President Loveridge announced that on Feb. 4 there would be another such entertainment
given.
xew iorK, Jan. 16. The crusade
against the kidney blow, which started in England directly after the Welch-
xiistuji uauie, nas readied such a
stage it is highly probable English ref
erees in the future will be instructed
to disqualify pugilists who use this
palpably unfair blow.
Ihere is much opposition to the kid
ney blow in this country, too, although
fight promoters have not yet taken up the matter. The Quechsberry rules
call for a "fair, standup boxing match
which would seem to indicate when the code was drawn up the kidney
punch had not yet come into use. In England it is argued that this blow is contrary to the letter and spirit of the rules, and therefore a clear foul. It is contended that when boxers get into a half clinch and one of them with the free hand pounds his opponent in the small of the back the milling manifest
ly is unfair and does not produce a fair
test of boxing skill.
Kidney punching has been prevalent in many championship battles in this country, though it may be said the Ut
ile lenows employ sucn tactics more
than the big men. This method of as
sault has been pronounced injurious by
many physicians and also has been de
nounced by ring followers who prefer
clean cut work. It is said the kidney punches Battling Xelson received from the late Joe Gans at Goldfleld affected
him internally and so weakened him that he developed a nervous ailment which had much to do with his defeat
at the hands of "Wolgast a year ago.
It would be an easy matter to cut ou
the kidney blow, it is believed, for the
average boxer does not care for it and
would readily agree to its elimination,
The pivot blow was barred many years ago and it is seldom that boxers attempt to use it.

GOTCH FLOPS
TWO WRESTLERS
It Is said that Sherwood Mages of the Quakers will receive more money than any other outfielder in the National leasrue. "Socks" Seybold, for eight years with the Athletics, is mentioned as the next manager of the McKeesport O. and P. club. The New York Highlanders have a promising catcher in Williams, who played with the Canton O. and O. league club last season. "King" Cole and his partner O'Toole have started their vaudeville tour. They are appearing in a baseball skit written by Hugh Fullerton, the Chicago scrfbe. Arthur Irwin is reported to have said "I wouldn't have. Larry Lajoie on my team; he's a left field hitter." Take a squint at Larry's batting average and then giggle.
