KILLED IN A PRIZE FIGHT.
A Boy the Victim of a Brutal Mill in a
st. Louis Dive.

brutal prize fight occurred at the saloon of
the Daily brothers in st. Louis Monday night,
which has resulted in the death of one of the
participants. Thos. E. Jackson, aged eighteen
years, is the victim. He fought Ed.
Ahearn, local lightweight champion, eleven
bloody rounds, and at the opening
of the twelfth fell fainting in his
seconds arms. The fight throughout was one
Of the most desperate battles ever witnessed
in ring, science being lost sight of, and give
and-take smuggling marking the fight through
out. The first blood was brought in the first
round, more of it in the second and BY the
time half dozen rounds had been fought the
men and their seconds were covered with
blood, as was the sawdust on the floor of the
ring, while the water with which the men
sponged was as red as blood ITSELF
When Jackson fell unconscious in his Sec
ond's arms he was carried to a room above the
Days saloon and three physicians called in
They worked vigorously, but without avail, and
at IL o'clock yesterday morning Jackson died.
At s o'clock his mother, Mrs. George NJ. Jack
son. wife of the well-known greenbacker was
notified, and sat at her sons bedside, COM
pletely overcome, while the spark of life slowly
faded out.
The affair has created intense excitement. as
prominent people will likely become involved
The referee was the sporting editor of a lead
ing morning paper.
The spectators were principally Pool alley
sports, who made up purse of S30 for which
the men, or rather boys, contested Two-ounce
hard gloves were used. Bob Farrell and Char
ley DAILY seconded Ahearn and Steve Burns and
Mike Mooney looked after Jackson. The fight
started at midnight and the eleven bloody
rounds can be described as wholly without SCI
ence. The crowd of sports sneaked out and
left the battered fighter on Charley Daly's
hands. DAILY, who has fought some yell-knoyn
sluggers, among them Meyer, the Streator,
Ill, pugilist. who made draw
with lightweight champion .McAuliffe,
did all he could for the dying boy, but without
avail. The dead boys body now lies in room
over the saloon where he fought, his face un-
recognizable, and his mother and two brothers
alone with their dead, while Chief of Police
Huebler has ordered the arrest of all parties
concerned in the affair. Jackson was well
known in fighting circles as Jack King, and his
parents were ignorant of his pugilistic ambi-
ton. Ahearn is gasfitter by occupation and
a fighter by inclination.
