"SNIPER" GETS PICTURES OF HAVANA FIGHT At Least This is What Jack Johnson Alleges Ex- Champ Then WILLARD Jess Willard's direct financial reward for beating Jack Johnson probably will be between 18,000 and 110,000, or more than 1100 for each minute of actual fighting time. While Promoter Jack Curley stated that the complete figures could not be made up just now he gave out the following estimates: Total receipts 1110,000 Expenses 170,000 to 178,000 Net 182.000 to 140,000 Willard will receive 25 percent of the net.

Johnson received 130,000 before the fight started. 'I knew all along that Jess would win," said Mrs. Jess Willard, at Los Angeles, when told of the outcome of the fight at Havana. She appeared happy, but not at all surprised. Her only other comment was made to Jess Willard.

So long." "Oh. yea. I expect to do better pitchint this season than I did last." said Jefr Teereau. "McGraw expects It, too. Good-bya" "I like Knoxville," remarked Fred Markle, the Giants' famous first sackr'.

"Hope to come again." "I am glad I joined the Giants," and Hans Lobert smiled. That's all be would say. Hs, also hurried into a car and "beat It" to the station. "Oh, no we are not worrying about the Braves," was the comment of 131, Chier Meyers. "Why should we? Keep your eye on the Giants this season." The Giants breezed into Knoxville late Thursday afternoon, arrivittg here from New Grimm.

and a. short time later engaged the University of squad in a baseball battle at Chilhowee park. Fans Disappointed. There is little question but that Majority of the fans went out there to see either Mathewson. Tonna or Marquard in action.

But they did not get to see them. McGraw elected to use Ritter and Schupp, unknown re-emits so fez as the rank and file of Knoxville fans are concerned. Ritter and Schupp pitched good ball, and all that sort of thing. but if Mathewson, or ligexquard. or, even Teereau.

had been sent in for a single Inning the fans would have been pleased. It may be argued that the stars cannot be allowed to pitch in every exhibition game in every town. That they have throwing arms that must be conaerved for the regular season's work. True enough. But there are three pitching stars on the New 'York team and an inning for each one every third day certainly would not put said star out of commission.

If there are fans In the country anywhere deserving eon- sideration at the hands of the Giants, these same fans reside in Knoxville. It will be remembered that when MoGrew and his clan visited this city two )ears ago they were feted and dined, and that for the first time in the tory of baseballto quote authority with the team at that timea squad of ball players were entertained by the business men of a city. But that is a thing of the past, some may say. And it Ia. But some folks can still remember There was quite a bit of burry and flurry around the Hotel Imperial Friday morning, when the Gianta were leaving for their train.

Hundreds of fans gathered to see the big fellows off. It might be remarked in passing that it is sioubtful if there is another delegatton of ball players in the world e)) ettar known to the public than Mo- thaws pennant chasers. The squad was scheduled to Oa King college in Bristol Friday after, DOOM By Dixie Hines SOW jai Ts The Sexism'. NEW YORK, April new playstwo and a revival to be more tocurateenjoys the schedule this week. Of the trio by far the more notable is the revival of "John Gabriel Borkman," by Ibsen, which is to be offered at the Lyceum theater with the distinguished German actor, Harr Emmanuel Reicher making his debut as an English speaking actor.

Herr Reicher has founded The Modern Stage, an organization for its object the presentation of the plays of unusual literary and dramatic interest, and which might not be seen on the stage. His first performance was "Elga," by Hauptman; which-brought back to us that charming, Intelligent and sterling actress, Hedwig Reicher, not unknown to our discriminating playgoers. But chief interest centers, quite naturally, in the appearance of Germans notable artist. Herr Zeicher himself. and this event takes precedence over Nil others for the present.

of the other two plays one is "The Revolt," by Edward Locke, which til to find a place to rest at the Maxine Elliot theater. Mr. Locke wrote "The Case of Beckr and that other inter-eating and successful play The Climax. F.

After several changes in management Mr. Cort took control and it was presented at Hartford, not, however. without inviting unfavorable comment, which took tangible form in Boston when the mayor of that city forbade its further production on the ground of indecency. Rather than change the lines Mr. Cort terminated his engagement in that city and now brings it to us for further proof.

Slight reference le made to the visit of the New York Giants. These same Giants were the guests of Frank Moffett, a number of Knoxville fans and the University of Tennessee baseball team out at Chilhowee park Thursday afternoon.

And by the way, a large flock of the faith was there, too. held the pesky New Yorkers to seven hits, which is pretty good pitching betimes. Tennessee garnered five bingles during the nine spasms, two of these going to Thom: lason and two to Mr. Keith.

As this 'latter player received a couple of free passes One is not surprised that the box score indicates that he batted something like 1.000. Capt. "Peck" Ashe experienced much difficulty in heading off the pill on a number of occasions, with slightly disastrous results. But bobbles and wobbles will visit the best of baseball families. As soon as McGraw walked into the "dog-house" just over from the grandstand, he said: "This is fine weather you are giving us.

The best we have seen this spring." Then he hurried the fellows into action. It was not many minutes until the Chilhowee diamond was alive with Giants at work. There were no sensational plays. Williams made an excellent catch in right field once during the contest. Ragland scooped up two or three difficult ones at third, while one or two Volunteers got caught between "the TEXAS LEAGUE SEASON OF 1915 UNDER WAY DALLAS, April 9.The 1915 season of the Texas league began yesterday with all teams playing before large crowds.
