excitement at the ring-side as Bud Renaud,

their appearance, which they did at $50 A.
NJ, and the excitement among the crowd
was increased when it became apparent
that the fight was actually to occur. On
the tOss-up for positions Kilrain's rep
resentative, Mike Donovan, won, and
he selected the northeast corner, Muldoon,
Sullivan's representative, choosing the
southwest corner. At this juncture the
sheriff of the county made his appearance,
and in the name of the State of Mississippi
commanded peace, and retired. this being
the cnly effort on the part of the authori-
ties to interfere with the fight. At this mo-
ment the flag of Sullivan, brought from
Boston, was placed in his corner amid great
enthusiasm. About 10 o'clock the sun went
behind cloud and there was no percepti-
BILE advantage in either corner.
Kilrain, who was the first to make his ap-
pearance, accompanied by Mike Donovan
and Charlie Mitchell. was received with
great applause, but wore very serious air,
as if fully realizing the work before him.
