"WALSH GREATEST
The fact is not generall known that1 Vernon M'cGlrr, associated .with McAleer Brothers, has one of the fastest mares in the wrld in McAleer's stables on the south -side. The horse Is tone other than the fa-
mous pacer, Alcyfras,- 2:03, which j was recently purchased by McGirr I from the D. W. Northropt estate. She
is eight years old and has the world's mile record for mares on a half mile track. This record is 2:04 and was made at Muncie on July 24, 1911. This record was made in the open without a pacer. -
' At Indianapolis . Alcyfras ran second to Evelyn W, which made the record of 2:014 and her own time was 2:02. She holds fourteen track records in Indiana," and is said to be one of the five fastest horses in the world. Next spring the mare will be shipped to Mr. McGIrr's father in northwestern Canada. Alcyfras races In hobbles. Alcyfras was sired by Alcyone, dam Sassafras, 2:13, by Almont Jr., 2:1514. The death of D. W. Northropt made the purchase of the horse possible at a reasonable figure. v She will be raced in Canada next year.

"If he could have threo days ret-t between gimps I don't see how any team could ever' win a game from Walsh." said Donovan. "H has wry thing that a pitcher needs to win hail Raines, and' if he were not sent in several times a week, as often is the case, he would be practically unbeatable."

Received on or before Jgfa 1912 " will draw 3 Interest from January 1st.
over finances, Jock Johnson today is to
bind himself to tight in defense of the heavyweight championship he won moons ago from Jim Jeffries. The colored star, one James Flynn, who will go down into history as the man who trimmed Carl Morris, and Jack Curley,
promoter and- manager of note, are to
assemble this afternoon around 3 p. m.
In Parlor L. of the Hotel Sherman and append their signatures to a set of articles. The papers will state that the
boss black boxer and the Pueblo fireman are to battle forty-five rounds or to a finish some time before June in an arena to be staged in one of two Nevada towns. Metropolis or Windward. It Is supposed they will guarantee Johnson $30,000, though the exact terms on which the champion and
Curley have come to an agreement have not been announced.
Tt will be the first gathering of
heavyweight celebrities for such an
Important matter as the closing of a championship match since Johnson and Jeffries and their retainers met in a
New York hotel over two years ago,
there to clinch terms for the fiasco at Reno. There will be the usual bunch of sporting lights about, also some scribes and the customary chatter be
fore the men take the pen in hand. 'But
as far as can be learned everything is cut and dried and any arguments
ply in the line of press agent efforts. Jim Flynn got in from Pueblo at midnight. He was due at 2 p. m. yesterday, but the train from the west was snowbound for hours. Jaraey looked well and happy, said he. would be the next world's champion and then went to bed.' He wanted a good sleep before meeting Jack Johnson face to face. It Is eighteen months since Johnson suddenly turned from a big smiling darkey into a black tiger and crushed the fight out of the California boilermaker in the fifteenth round at Reno. From that day to this Jack has not swung a glove at anybody except In play en the stage. It Is high time he is fighting and proving he still Is the champion, and for that reason the box
ing public will take great Interest in the formalities Of -hls afternoon. The
date of fistic controversy will be named today, and the guarantees, percentages and division of picture rights announced. Two Nevada men are to post $10,000 in real money to convince all concerned they can pull off the match. Johnson and Curley will put up substantial rolls of bills as guarantees of appearance. This money all Is to be placed tn a local bank. Then the public will be able to settle back and wait for the day when the game fireman steps out to "fight for the white 'face" against the ebony master of boxing.
