I'Special 1 DELOS (PP:T) BROWN, champion middleweight of the world, and Jack Harberlson of Ogden, claimant to the title, are to meet at Alhambra theatre of Ogden on either May 12 or May 1G. They are to 'weigh in at 15S pounds at 3 o'clock day of match,' the contract calling for forfeiture of $500 for every pound over. The purse is a guarantee of. $1500 to each man. The match is to be promoted by A. G. Skinner of Ogden. Harry Heagren of this city represent- "PUIEK ed the champion at the meeting held yesterday in Ogden, as Brown is now in Idaho wrestling, and consequently turned his affairs over to Mr. Heagren. Heagren dickered for 15S pounds ringside, but Harbertson would not agree to the forfeiture of $500 on that proposition. Champion Brown won the championship a little over a year ago from Mike Yokel in Salt Lake City. Since that occasion he has been challenged several times by Jack Harbertson, who laid claim to the title when Pet returned to Texas without meeting him last time Pet "was here. Harbertson's claim has not been seriously considered by the sporting world, however, but there Is no doubt in the minds of many that he has splendid chances for the title. The question worrying his backers is: Can he make the weight? forHis willingness to put up the $500 feiture overweight is indicative of Harbertson's faith that he can. for should he weigh over 158 pounds he not only would forfeit money, but would also eliminate himself from becoming chamthe champion, as the rules state that 158 title nt pion must win his pounds ringside. Jack made 159J pounds for Mike Yokel and his friends look tor him to get down to the limit with little trouble. TOO I.ICillT FOll lVOIIK.

Chief Bender has been made a member of the Philly strategy board by Pat Moran and he will be out on the lines like he used to be for coaching Connie Mack. Connie, by the way, tells Moran that Bender is the smartest ball player that ever pulled on a uniform. SCIIAXG INJURED. The first serious accident of the baseball season in the majors came to Wal-l- y Schang. catcher of the Athleties, in the opening game. He split his throwing hand trying to stop a wild pitch from Joe Bush, and wll be out for a couple of weeks. TIGERS TUX.MS WINKERS.
