slowed up gamely, but it was evident
taat he could not long stand up to such
punishment. To stop it Phillips
again got in the LaBlanche swing,
but with success, this time, the blow
seeming to daze Tehe, who staggered,

FOURTH ROUND.
Tehe tries to force the fight, but
Phillips, who is evidently ION" to his
sledgehammer blows, lodges him.
Both winded, and round ended with-
out blow being given.
FIFTH ROUND.
11:37.- Both seem determined to
finish. Phillips somewhat reckless,
but gets in three strong body blows
on Tehe-two just below the heart,
the other over the right lung. He
evidently intended to wind him, aud
seemed likely to succeed il be could
parry the Tehe sledges, one of wh,ch
was a: last landed under Phill'ps's chin,
keeling him over. As Phillips went
down Tehe's right knee seemed to
follow for couple OF seconds. Then
Tehe withdrew to let his opponent up,
who .hereupon addressed the referee
and crowd shouting: "What do you
call that?" Fighting renewed Sharp
work. Both mad and hit rather wild.
Both got in some sounding thwacks,
but Tehe's count more than Ph,llips's,
as he hit him squarely on top Of the
head. Phillips, evidently ratified,
dazed, struck foully. frank foul''
from the crowd. Tehe shouted to re-.
fierce: "Let it go!'" Cheers from
the crowd, which wanted to see q
fight. "Order! Order!" 1t also
wanted square fght-that is, where
neither principal can have an unfair
advantage, and the "best'' man will
win.
SIXTH ROUND.
Phillips does not come up looking
so spry rs heretofore, and it is evident
that his science cannot offset Tehe's
strength. Besides, the latter is an
all around athlete and although slow
and heavy in his movements, he sur
prises all by the certainty with which
he "gets there" at the right moment,
and the way he smiles and seems con-
6dent of Winning. He forces the
fighting. That just suits Phillips, as
he evidently thinks that he must
"wind" him. To this end be gets in
three terrific body blows on Tehe, and
the advantage is with him. The men
lock arms as usual, and Phillips is
warned not to foul again. Where
upon he protests: "I'm getting the
worst of it now" He, however, pitched
, in savagely, and was doing such tells
ing work that everybody expected
Tehe to be winded, when the latter
