- Who will win ?" is the oft-repeated
question Que hears on all sides just now.
The query, of course, refers TO Sullivan and
kilrain. 1t is curious how Judgment is
swayed by sympathy. Many persons are
planking their dollars on the man of their
choice, who have never seen either man. or
really know what Sullivan's or Kilrain's
strong and weak points are. It seems. how
ever, to be the general verdict of the most
experienced judges of pugllists that if Sulli-
van is fit in prime condition-he will
win, but that if he is not III very best condi-
ton, then Kilrain will have n comparatively
easy victory.
Sullivan and Kilrain are the most notable
examples OF two different schools of boxing
seml-facet' ouslv STYLED the ''sluggers " and
the "iabbers." The smuggling school, OF
which Sullivan is the most prominent expon-
ent, represents the aggressive, rushing style
of fighting; the go in to win" method :

good opportunity to strike a blow that will
repeated lighter blows than on terrific
Knockout swings, which may not land and
are exhausting.. Kilrain heads this school,.
Others who believe in the same tactics are
Charley Mitchell. They are the tacticians of
the ring. Dempsey is one of the greatest
of ring generals.

Jack McAuliffe's offer to Billy Myers to
box ten rounds not having been accepted by
the Streator lad. he is now being beset
with offers from aspiring light-weights to take
Myers's place. Jack prefers Mike DAILY, OF
Bangor. Me-. but DAILY has not offered &c
spar. Jack Hopper would like the chance,
and SO would Billy Dacey. Hopper's theat.
rical engagement will probably prevent his
sparring. Billy Dncey says as Jack will no

ought to spar him the ten rounds. And the
