as A GREYHOUND,

and shoulders, and arms and legs
that DO not seem TO be as strongly
muscled as they are, on account Of
their length. Kilrain, on the con-
trary, looked broad and heavily
muscled, aud looked ike Sullivan
did when he faced the Baltimorean
at Richburg.
There was not much trouble in
selecting a referee. Pat Kendrick
was suggested. lie was urged TO
accept, and did SO. and John O'Neil
and John L. Duffy were named rs
time-keepers Gloves were chosen
and dOnned. They were called four
ounce gloves, bHt looked less than
three. The crowd showed enthusi-
asm, when Vacquelin went over
and shook hands with Kilrain in
the latter's corner to show II was n
friendly meeting. Later on the
PRINCIPALS AND SECONDS
met in the centre and clasped hands
and then the decks were cleared for
action. Muldoon made n little
speech, saying Il was a gathering on
Sunday afternoon 10 witness a glove
contest and he hoped the crowd
would not forget it and think Il had
come TO n prize fight in the country.
IL was n contest for a display Of
skill, strength and endurance, and
not fight. Both sides had agreed
TO abide By the referees decision and
the crowd should do the same. Then
Muldoon stepped back into the
corner. At S:i9 the referee called 1
.'time." The men sprang lightly |
forward and the fight commenced.
Kilrain made the fight scientific
ally and showed all the gereralship /
for which he is noted. In
THE FIRST ROUND
he tried to draw Vacqueliu on, but
the latter was wary and never as
sumed the offensive. Vacquelin
fought on pluckily and got in some
short arm returns on the side. After
that he could not touch KiIrain.
In the secound round Kilrain re-
peated a halfarm blow, and squeezed
Nacquelin with a clinch, so that
when he let him 20 Nacquelin
dropped to one knee. When Kilrain
saw his rival weakening he rushed
in and clinched again, at the same
lime swinging right in on his neck,
It was good chance to end up mat
.ers then, but the police and referee
nterfered. kilrain continued his
-lshes and landed on the neck and

apsed to the defensive. When he :
