FIRST ROUND.

In the first round Jackson led off with a
light tap on Slavin's body. Prolonged
sparring then ensued. Slavin did not force
the fighting at the great rate expected
jackson, though, hit with much force, aud
kept his long left arm constantly in Slavin's
face. Twice Slavin clinched and was or
dered by the referee to break awey. He
then tried to land with his right on Jack
son, but the latter jumped away. The
round ended very evenly.

AT the close of the fight Slavin, as he Law
helpless and dishgured, appeared almost
dead. He presented a woeful appearance
and showed plainly the effects of terrible
punishment. His eyes were tightly closed
face badly swalen and discolored, and BODY
covered with blood. Jackson, too, lost
some blood and showed marks of the terri
