"The story that Gleason and I had agreed to take the battle to San Francisco is absolutely false.

We never had such an understanding. He has been talking the matter over with Jeff and Berger and knows how they feel about It. We will get down to business tomorrow when the big question will be decided." It is believed by Rickard's friends that Gleason will announce that he has given in to Salt Lake bid. The very Tact that the final meeting' is to occur there points to that conclusion. euros Catarrh by removing the cause from the blood.

It so thoroughly purifies the circulation that there Is nothing left to inflame and irritate the mucous linings of the body, which is the most prominent and dangerous effect of Catarrh. As long as the mucous membranes and tissues are kept in a state of inflammation and irritation by an impure and infected condition of the circulation, Catarrh will remain. It3 disagreeable symptoms of ringing noises in the ears, mucous dropping back into the throat, headaches, watery eyes, difficult breathing, and even stomach disorders and weakened health, cannot be permanently relieved untU the blood is purified. Local applications alone can hava no real curative value, because such treatment does not reach the blood. Sprays, inhalations, lotions, are valuable only for their cleansing and antiseptic effect, but if depended on alone Catarrh sufferers will find a cure impossible.

Nothing equals S. S. S. for curing Catarrh. It goes down into the circulation, gets at the root of the trouble, and removes every particle of catarrhal matter from the blood and enriches this vital fluid so that instead of irritating the different mucous portions of the body, it nourishes them with rich, health-giving properties.

Then the symptoms begin to pass away, and Catarrh is permanently cured. Book on Catarrh and any medical advice free. THE SWIFT SPECIFIC ATLANTA, GA. TOE LL MEET HANDICAP championship order. Earlier in the Winter he was brought here by the Armory management and matched against Hubbell, the young bank clerk from Erie.

Stanislaw Zybszko Cyganiewics is the full and almost unpronounceable name of the great Polish wrestler who will be seen in this city in the very near future. The strong man of Poland has been called Zybszko since coming to this country. His name has been shortened because the people can pronounce it with some degree of correctness. Even as it is, the name of the wrestler is pronounced in many different ways. The man who came to America with the express determination of taking the heavyweight championship of the world back to Europe with him, was born in the little village of Stanislaw-ice, in the province of Gallicia, and in addition to his great strength and prowess on the mat is a graduate of the University of Vienna and has served as a lieutenant in the Austrian army.

Like the world-famous Hacken-schmidt, who was also a graduate of a European college and a civil engineer by education, Zybszko is a gentleman and is far above the usual professional in intelligence and Intellectual attainments. Although he has wrestled all of the leading mat artists and has been in many countries of the world, Zybszko gives his age as twenty-eight years. WRESTLING HALF HIS LIFE. Zybszko has been wrestling since he was fourteen years of age. One year later lae began to take serious interest in the He took instruction under one of the best professional wrestlers in Austria.

Zybszko went to Vienna and wrestled Raicevich, the Italian wrestler, who was recently beaten by Frank A. Gotch in this country. He was but twenty years of age at the time he met the Italian. The Italian won the match. At the age of twenty-four Zybszko graduated from the University of Vienna, taking a degree in law.

After leaving college he served one year as a lieutenant of infantry. It was when Zybszko left the army that he seriously took the wrestling game as a means of livelihood. He wrestled in Turkey, France, Russia and England. He has met Padou-by, the Russian giant, twice at Gra-eco-Roman, with neither man securing a fall. A year after this Zybszko defeated the Russian.

He has defeated Nenhoulah, the Turk, the same man who was seriously injured by George Hackenschmidt and who challenged Frank Gotch when the world's champion was in England last year. Zybszko has also met Beck, Olsen, Lureck, the Russian, and Beaucaries, the French champion. In 1906 Zybszko won the world's Graeco-Roman title at Paris, there being 65 men entered in the tournament.

Tryua Cobb is the baseball wonder of the present day. We all know that the Georgian, has no rivals when it comes to the long hits, the daring work from eack, the stolen bases and the terror he brings to pitchers and fielders. Still, but little is really known of Cobb.

In comparison with many other players of less renown. The Georgian keeps to himself more than is usual with players of the day, and few people really understand either Cobb or his playing style. It Is generally believed mainly from the dash and apparent swagger of his play that Cobb is a swell-headed and intolerable sort of pest, inflated, blev-iating, boastful. He isn't. He was a fresh sort of a boy when be began the game, but his freshness was not boast ful or mere swell-headedness.

Cobb the man Is a modest, quiet admiring, and people who have met him either in Detroit or Georgia, ere invariably charmed with his ways and speech. Writing of Tyrus Cobb, a Georgian who knows him, says that Cobb the most popular young fellow in Augusta, Js not merely a hit-or-miss batter, whose success has terrorized the pitchers, but a student of the game. "Cobb's ideas, as applied to the improvement of bis own skill, are interesting," says his friend. "He figures that study of the pitchers will do better than all the practice hitting in the world, and the improvement of big percentage seems to bear him out. Each man who goes against CTobb is made the object of special attention.

If Tyrus can hit him right at the start and keep hitting him he dnes not worry. If the pitcher proves too much for him Cobb will do some thinking, watching and planning, and, so far, has seldom lost. For two years Doc White of Comis-key's team had Cobb for the goat. Twice, it is on record, he made Cobb fan three times during a. single game.

It looked as if White had Tyrus for a mark forever and it became a standard Joke of baseball that there was never yet a. Buffalo like that which White held on Cobb. "Cobb kept up the war against his master. He tried changing his stand at bat and the way he held his stick, but never did he get the ghost of a hit off White till he stepped quickly back of the plate and met the ball after the break. That settled it.After that the buffalo was gone Cobb had White, and White had Cobb no more." AUTO RACES ENDED WITHOUT ONE THRILL At Ncrw Orleans, The Second Mardi Gras automobile meet at New Orleans ended yesterday afternoon.

About 3,500 persons witnessed the contests and were disappointed in the programme. There were but four races, instead of the six scheduled, and one of these was an uninteresting drive between amateurs.

In the fourth mile de Palma burst a tire and was forced out.

Up to that time he end Oldfleld had been running neck and neck and the race prorrised to be a close one. De Palma used a Flat and Oldfleld a Benz car.

Hoagland will give the Erie man six laps or about 550 yards start on ten miles and attempt to beat him.

He has been practically advanced to the presidency of the Albany club. He has taken an interest in the holdings of the Senators and feels confident that Albany will be the best ball town in the State League this season. His one ambition, Clarke says, is to advance the attendance figures to 100,000 for the senson, and he feels confident, when Wilkes-Barre can produce such an attendance, Albany can outstrip the mining town. Clarke assumes the responsibility of the Job of running the affairs of the Albany team because of President Winchester's desire to relinquish his hold because of business.
