He { was in his 73rd year, and had been | in feeble health for some time. | He was the last of the autocrats, {ruling bliliards with a despotism-- } benevolent but iren-clad---which ne- | ver weakened even after he had long { passed his zenith. Other players Tore- red their way upwards and insistently j contended that the G.O.M. was no jonger champion in anything but | name, but Roberts would not con- {cede an inch, steadfastly refusing to play on level terms. {+ ere was pathos in the last ap- pearance - of Roberts in London | {writes Regent"). For Londen had { forgotten "him, and that very nearly broke the Old Master's heart. He and Melbourne Inman played a fort- night's match in Hanoversquare on a table with pockets under standard. John came into the saloon on the first afternoon and glanced round to see row after row of almost empty i benches. Not a flicker of emotion passed over that rugged face, but Just then John Roberts must have realized, as he thought of the old Egyptian Hall and Argyll Hall days, that his star had set. He was crush- ingly defeated, for the magic had gone for ever from that wonderful right arm, and he was no longer the Great Wizard, caressing and cajoling | could caress and cajole them.

The New York Yacht club will de- fend America's cup in a race against Sir Thomas Lipton's Shamrock 1V off Sandy Hook about July 18th. The statement was made by a res- ponsible official of the New York jolub dn answer to a United Press cable from London that Sir Thomas 'Lipton had been notified in a pri- vate message of the a ay i the challenge. { The New York club met Thurs night, but it was reported after the meeting that no official action had been taken on the challenge. "Details of the race have been ag- reed upon practically, the papers have not been signed. There is no doubt that they will be, however, within a week or 0," it was said at the club. "The challenge was accepted ten- fatively in 1914" it was said. "When war caused a postponement of the race that year, assurance was { given the Royal Ulsier club that if it | would challenge later it would be ac- | cepted. {| "There fas been no question that the New York clad would be willing 10 defend the cup. Aceeptance of the challenge, officially submitted seve- ral months ago, has been delayed by negotiations over the time of the race and the course. But it has been decided to stage the race in the mid- die of July off Sandy Hook. i "Sir Thomas Lipton's Shamrock 1 1V, which is now being refittéd here, (will be the challenger, and either ithe Vanitie or the Resolute will be the defender. Both the Amerjoan can- didates will be brought out in May and tested in trial races during the months of May and June." | Sir Thomas Lipton was greatly gratified over assurance that the , challenge had been accepted, and {was apocially pleased over the ton- { cesglony made. To the United Press correspondent in London he said: "Of course, the date of the race is three weeks later than I suggested. Corns Go! You Bet. | Just Use "Putnam's."

Belleville, 11; Trenton, 5. U.F.0. TEAM WINS, AS BATTERSEA AULTS The U.F.O. hockey team of Joyce- ville won from Battersea bw the lat- ter's default on Tuesday afternoon. The game was to have been played off at Washburn and the U.F.0. team was early on the ice fit for the con- ! test. The U.F.0. won from Battersea last week and this was a return game, The Battersea team did not sut in an appearance and the impa- tience of the waiting team grew to something worse as the time passed ond no word was received in expla- { nation of Battersea's failure to keep the engagement. The U.F.O. team is as follows: J. Joyce, goal; Norman Greeley and C. Martin, wings; K. Wiltsie and Hec- tor Hughes, defence; Hilliard Berry, centre; R. Wiltsie and G. Reed, sub- stitutes, W. B. Fanklin, of Joyce- ville, is manager. . Mr Franklin hae his team In good shape and will make a strong run to capture the Edwards' Fontenar Cup as another U.F.0. trophy. The first game in the series "A" will take place between Sydenham apd U.F.O. { at Washburn at 8 p.m. on Friday. COCHRAN IN CONTROL. Holds Contract on Carpentier For BR ¢. B.

The mes- sage read: "Awaiting your decision. Have entertained no other offers what- ever. Will mot do so until released by you." Cochran, who will sail home next Saturday, intimated he would hol the bout in England if he can sign up Jack Dempsey. Major League Schedules. President Ban Johnson, of the American League, has returfied from a hunting trip to Louisiana, where, with President Heydler, of the National League, he drafted the ' contested exhibitions seen at the "V'* BAPTISTS DEFEATED z YOUNG HEBREWS In the senior 8.8.A A.A. basketball game played at the Y.M.C.A. gym- nasium on Tuesday evening, the Young Hebrews met their first defeat of the season, when the Baptists out- Scared them by 11 to 3. The game was probably one of the mos: closely this season. APSBalf timo the gocre was 5 to 2 in favor of the Hebrews, but a few minutes before time was ct)ed the winners played superior ball. The defeat of the Hevrews last ovening means that there will be a great more interest in the senior series. as a number of the teams have lost only one game so far this sea- son. The teams lined up as follows: Young Hebrews-- Yanpolsky, Mor- ris, Abramsky, Sugel and Friedgut. Baptist--Cruse, Reid, Kaight, Hansell and Singleton. Referee--Kenneth McCullough. Cooke's failed to put in an sppear- ance and Sydenham seniors won the game by default . TROTTERS FOR ENGLAND. | { One Hundred Head Shipped Over This Season. | After having shipped "and more than one hundred American trotters to England this season, George Watson has booked forty-five more for export on the SS. Manhat- tan, of the Atlantic Transport Line, which is scheduled to sail from Bal- timore on Jan, 28th. The Manhattan is due at New York on Monday with thirteen valuable horses, eight of which are thoroughbreds, end 258 Jersey and Guernsey dairy cattle, owned by T. F. Cooper. of Coopers- burg, Pa.; Charles Hill, of Rosen- dale, Wis., and other importers. Owing to the outbreak of foot- and mouth disease in England the i United States Government has sus- | pended all permits for the impor tation of British cattle. This lot got in only when the steamship com- pany arranged to transport the ani- mals from the islands of Jersey and Guernsey by boat direct to the SS. Manhattan, without allowing them to set foot in England. Three hun- dred more valuable Jerseys and Guernseys are awaiting shipment on the SS. Michigan, which leaves London on Jan. 26th, and the offi- cers of the Atlantic Transport Line are now trying to obtain permission | from Washington to bring them in under the same conditione. Racing in Spring. That there will be horse-racing in ' Canada in the spring was the siate- ment made by Lieut.-Col. William | Hendrie at Hamilton. "Will there be betting?" he was asked. "Yes. Without betting it would be useless to have the races. Another thing, without the pari-mutuel or booking system in effect there would be iiticit betting and that would be one of the worst evils we woull have to contend with," was the answer, Colonel Hendrie added that pre- parations are already being made at Woodbine for the spring meeting.

More "Heavy Metal". ! Moncton Transcript: ---- Dempsey wants $500,000 to go to France and fight. He places & high value on his fighting powers. Perhaps that is why he stayed at home when other men were going to France to fight for $1.10 a day. It is rather surprising {that he would demean himself to fight with a man who fi t for five cents a day when he was@ifered a big sum to come to America." THAY L THERE'S MyTT Now. IT'LL GET HIS GoAT.
