NEWS OF THE SQUARED CIRCLE. DEMY RYAN, of Australia, but who has claimed Loulsville as his home for the past three years, will experience the turning point in hig career to-night at Music Hall. He and to Jack Root, the middleweight champion ol the West, will meet in a twenty-round glove battle. If Ryan wins his future will be a little uncertain, as money will hunt him then. But if he loses he will quit the prize ring forever, and go on down that narrow, endless path which begins high up the hillside of fame and ends at the cornerstone of oblivion.

Ryan is in good physical shape. He knows that he has only one chance In probably four to whip Root, but he really belleves that he will be able to land his deadly right which has sent so many good boxers to the land of nod. Ryan expects to cut right in and fight as fast and a6 hard as he can until he wins or loses. Ho has spent all the money he has made beIng "a good fellow," but If he should hap. pen to defeat Root It would mean thousands of dollars to him in future matches alone.

Root arrived in the city early yesterday morning and procedeed at once to Bruen's' place, where Beauscholte Is training. Root's manager, Louis M. Houseman, and Bat Masterson, the noted Denver referee, will arrive here this morning, having left Chicago last night. Root and Beauscholte did their road work together yesterday, and boxed six fast rounds in the afternoon. Both of these Chicago boxers look to be in fino condition and fit to go the route.

Root said last might that he thought he would beat "Australian" Jimmy Ryan tonight, although he not hold Ryan cheaply, as he had boxed him before, and he considered the Australian a do tough prop. man who always had a dangerous right-hand punch that would put any boxer out of the business it it landed on the, spot. will be careful to keep out of the way of this awful right of Ryan's, though, and administer a few of my favorite straight leads that I think will bother Ryan some, AB they always have," said Root. "Ryan is an old ring general and a hard man to beat." Root thinks well of Beauscholte and says he has chance with any middleweight In the business right, now. "Of course, I can't tell how good a man Marvin Ilart is, As it was reported he was a sick man some two months ago, and It 1s pretty bard for a man to "round to" so quickly, but I will give you a tip--Hart will have to be at his best to beat Beauschoite.

"While I do not want to boost myself, I think I am fairly clever a8 a boxer, and I will say 1 have boxed with Beauecholte several times in training, and he 18 as fast and clever as most any of the middleweights I ever met. He can stand the gaff, too, and the condition he is in should afford the public great contest, whether he succeeds in defeating Hart or pot. "If I should beat Ryan and Hart gets around Beauscholte and Hanrahan, would like to have a chance at him. can get good backing to go against Hart, and I believe I can beat him. At any rate, my manager, Lou Houseman, 18 ready and willing to post $5,000 or any part of it with the sporting editor of the Courier-Journal, which says I can land a winner over the Louisville we champion.

Money talks, you know, and since are ready to put up our money, we think we can win. I am eager to see him box, and will be present at the ringside Friday night to 502 the Hart-Beauscholte contest. It ought to be warm while lasts. gincerely hope Hart has fully recovered from his The semi-wind-up for the Root -Ryan contest to-night will be a ten-round affair between the veteran, Pete Traynor, and the local boxer, "Butch" Fletcher, Bat Masters, local boxer, and "The Dixie Boy." from the South, will box a six round preliminary. Marvin Hart, who boxes Jack Beauscholte Friday night, has about completed his training for his contest, and will only do light road work from now on.

He locked to be In condition last night, and spoke of his coming engagement with his usual confidence. He said he felt hetter than he ever did In his life, and while he was not as heavy as before his late Illness he was sure he was faster on his feet and in his boxing. think I will win from Beauscholte Hanrahan In less than ten rounda, and 'atter I get through with them I will be pleased to tackle Jack Root any old atyle he wants to box. of course. prefer to box straight Marquis of Queensberry rules, as it is more popular with the public and gives better satisfaction.

but if Houseman. Root's manager, prefers the breakaway-clean style I will take a crack at Root that way. I want to keep on boxing as long as I can win, and wil tackle any middleweight in the business." Manager Dickins, who has charge of the Beauscholte-Hart contest. said last night that all arrangements had been perfected for the show, and everything Indicated a packed house. Bat Masterson On the Way.

Chicago, Oct, Masternon, of Dodge City fame, who is to referee the contest between Root and Ryan at Lou1sville to-morrow night, left for the Palls City this evening over the Monon. "Bat" was suggested by Jimmy Ryan, and Lou Houseman, Root's manager, agreed to the selection of the famed frontiersman. Jeff a Big Favorite.

F. Meyers during the coming meeting, was breezed a mile In the center of the track in 1:44 and was under a stout pull all the way. The fast time made by Springwella gives an idea of the condition of the track. She will be a starter in the inaugural dash on Saturday, and with a lot of fast sprinters in the race it would not be surprising if new world's record was hung up in the event.

Several hundred horses were brought out during the day, most of them being put through their training preparation before noon. There quite a number of twoyear-olds already at the course, and the events for youngsters are sure to be well filled and bring out large felds. Several of the young men who will take part in the race for gentlemen riders, which will be one of the features of Saturday's programme, helped to exercise the horses yesterday.

Just to get In condition for Saturday's big race. There seems to be quite a rivalry of the good-natured kind among the prospective contestants for the possession of the handsome silver and gold loving cup which will be given to the winner. The list of probable starters is growing as the day of the race draws nearer, and it would not be surprising if as many ns eight went to the post. Murray Hendrle, the Canadian gentleman rider, not be here on Saturday. He wired yesterday that he had engaged to ride at Baltimore on that day in the steeplechase events given by the Baltimoro Hunt Club.

Clark Kirkman and WIll Jackson, of Nashville, will 1 be the only out-of-town riders who will have mounts in the race. An army of workmen is putting everything at the course in apple pie order, and a fence 1s in course of erection which will shut off the quarter stretch from the betting ring and grand stand so that the grooms and stable hands cannot get in. It 1s the intention to keep the infleld clear of people during the races, and the attendants will wait in the paddock until a race is over before going to the front of the Judges' stand to take care of tho horses. As the private boxes are not many In number, but aro large, seating twelve or fifteen, they will probably be divided off and two boxes seating six or seven aplece will take their place. It is expected that there will be a good representation of society at the races on Saturday, as many applications have been received for boxes seat reservations.

Mayor Weaver and Candidate Grainger have signified their Intention of attending the races, as well as many of the Aldermen and city officials, and if the day 1s fine there should be a record-breaking crowd at Douglas Park.

"Eclipse First; the Rest Nowhere!" An article that everybody prefers to any other in its line must necessarily be the best.

The beer that everybody drinks wherever it has been introduced must necessarily be the best beer that can be had. Once the beer of the Frank Fehr Brewing Company is introduced in any home, in any town, or in any country, the question of supremacy is at once settled. They want the Fehr brand and no other. It is to the beer trade what Eclipse was to the race THE REST NOWHERE." It is useless to say that any other beer Is just as good unless that other beer has shown the ability to compete with the Fehr brand in the open market; and surely no other Louisville beer hag shown such ability. The Fehr brand 1s used in more Louisville homes than all other brands combined, and it 1s the only Loulsville beer that Is recognized at al away from home.

Try this beer and see if It lan't the best you ever used. Frank Fehr Brewing Co. DYSPEPSIA TABLETS. IT IS NO EXPERIMENT. Tha great preparation we advertise has passed the experimental stage.
