some Gossip Concerning the Glow
Hyhds Match.

@NN
about some things. Its editorial page
last Monday morning contained this par
agraph
"Ifthe sheriff of Carbon county, Wyo.,
had done his duty on Saturday night he
would now be boarding as fine a collec-
ton Of thugs and thumpers as the country
contains. Glow and Hynds should be
sent to the rock. pile for at least six
months each"
And yet, the News sent a leading
member of its staff, Capt. james T. Smith,
who has been connected with the paper
many years, to report the match alluded
to, and he sent by telegraph the longest
and most detailed report of the fight
which has been given. This was printed
last Sunday morning, and repeated Mon
day morning at the same time and in the
same paper from which the editorial par
agraph quoted above was given. and with
the last publication of the report a lot of
paragraphs concerning the fight were
given, which are produced below, as being
OF interest in Cheyenne, and once a week
the Necs prints more sporting news
than any other paper in the West. The
paragraphs alluded to are as follows:
Everyone was satisfied.
Rawlins lost money on LAWN but won
on Glow.
Glow stopped off at Laramie to visit
friends for a day or so.
The actual time consumed in the
match, from call to finish, was twenty
two minutes.
Hynds does not stretch when he leads.
Glow does. The difference is material.
Glow was tw~enty-three years old the
oath of last February. Hynds is now in
his twenty fifth year.
1t was clear grit against clear grit and
science combined. 1t is needless to say
that the combination won.
Hynds' hackers from Cheyenne lost
their money like lords. English manners
are catching in that section.
Harley Mccoy, well known in the days
of the fircmen's tournaments as a rapid
runner, assisted Frank Hayes in taking
care of Glow.
The Scotch in Glow fights Il good wait
ing round, cautious. cool and wary. Then
the Irish steps in and winds up the pro-
gTamme.
The commissioner of The Ncics is in
debted to the editor of the Rawlins Jour
ma, the Democratic paper. for eourtesies
extended.
Lord Ogilvy, the Farmer King and
on of CLOVIS earliest friends, started to
attend the match, but was recalled at
Greeley by a telegram.
Bat Masterson makes IL ready umpire.
He cried fowl only once, having discov-
cred from personal experience that the
Rawlins poultry is rather tough.
JEFF Smith, better known as "Soapy,
stopped the timer on the final Knockout
at twenty-five seconds, when the referee
motioned to Glow to step to the front.
When the leader of the vigilantes
passed Morrison's seat on Saturday morn
ing 3 train, he halted for a second look at
the stalwart young trainer. But he was
not roped in.
The Denver d elegation took in a thou
and or two smooth on CLOVIS right up
pers, and are willing to make affidavit
that the finishing blow in the sixth round
would have felled an OK.
In the three first rounds, during which
the battle was practically finished, Glow
led eighteen times and Hynds eight.
Neither one was timid, though both took
turns in being cautious.
The squared circle" was twenty-four
feet from sideto side and twenty feet from
front to real. 1t was strongly roped, ac-
cording to regulation, the work being done
under the personal supervision of Frank
Hayes.
\. +. Fenner, for many years a promi-
nent member of the Governors Guard, is
chief clerk at the Hotel Brunswick, Raw
Inns, where the Denverites put up. The
house did well by its guests.
1t was Glow eighteenth successive VIC
tory. He has yet to be defeated. 1t is
also to be noted that every man he APP
peared with had the advantage of him
in both weight and age, the extra weight
running from five to thirty-fve pounds.
Hon. j. Duffy, n San Francisco capital
list, was on the train from the west and
took great interest in the details of the
match at Rawlins, He speaks highly Of
Dempsey, now in San Francisco, and says
the sparring Of the phenomenal middle
weight is worth going a distance to see.
Dempsey was expected at Rawlins, but
was detained in Frisco by the lameness of
his right, the result of landing too solidly
on Keenan's teeth. He will soon be in
Denver and will appear with Glow in a
four or six-round contest with soft gloves.
The two young middle weights will make
a clever set-to.

patchers located at Rawlins had two busy
