the boats to three lengths. 1t opened
the eyes Of all. The Minnesotans be-
gan to take some interest in the thing.
1t was a race after all. Still they
argued against hope. They thought
Corning was using all his strength in
the start and would finish weak, while
Walsh would come in strong and fast.
They didn't know Corning. He wasn't
one of the weakening kind. He was
in front to stay and he was doing it
like a major. Half way down Corning
was going as fast as at the start.
Then Walsh's boat began to draw up.
1t was all over then, thought the
watchers on the boat, but they were
wrong again. Walsh crept nearer and
nearer. He ate up a full length with
apparent ease, but Corning never
spurted or changed his stroke. He had
the commanding position and knew
what he was doing. He had steered
badly at first, but was now going
straight as a die to the finishing stake
His friends were hopeful now that in
stead of making a game showing
against the other fellow, he would
actually defeat him. Walsh ate up an
other quarter of a length.
Corning now led by a mere half
length, but he put a little more
strength into his stroke and told the
Canadian that he was in front to stick.
Walsh eXerted every muscle to the
utmost. He saw his glory disappear
ing as they approached closer to the
finish line and tried as hard as he
could to catch up. He couldn't do it,
that's all, and Corning shot over the
line winner by half a length of open
water. Talk about noise Everybody
yelled and every whistle whistled.
Corning had rowed1 one of the hand
soonest single races ever seenson Min
netonka, and he was rendered an ova-
ton all along the line as he leisurely
roWed to the boat house. He was en-
titled to the greatest credit for the
victory. 1t was won only on its merits.
The time was 1:O5.
And so ends the regatta. 1t is doubt

Governor Frank Darr jackson was

1854. In May, 1867, when he was but Is
years old, he moved to Iowa with his
mother and located at Jessup, in
Buchanan county. At this time his
father, Hon. H. w. Jackson, was con-
nected with the war department at
Washington. His early education was
a source of great care to his parents,
and after leaving the village school at
Jessup he took a course at the agri-
cultural college at Ames land after

blessed with three sons-Graden, Ern-

Word was yesterday received by J.
II. Herman from "Parson" Davies,
who is at present in New York, stat
ing that he would like to bring Jimmy
Barry, the bantam weight champion,
to St. Paul to meet some good man III
his class. Herman says that he will
match Barry against any man in the
world at los pounds, and if Dick Ward
would like another chance Barry will
allow him to weigh in at 10 pounds.
Arrangements are being made for q
finish glove contest between Eddie
Schoenborn, of Minneapolis, and Billy
King, of Butte, Mont. James Murphy,

Stanley Wilde is getting in fine shape
for the tWenty-nlile road race, which
takes place at Lake Harriet on Mon-

ners after the race. Wilde is also en-
tered with Nell Sawyer for the five
mile race for tandems, and in their
practice work yesterday they covered
five miles in 1920, which is considered
winning time in that race.

United States.
Arrangements for the great Deere road
race to take place on Aug. u, at 8

are about completed. A large force of
mounted police, as we'll as police on
foot, VIII be on hand to keep the spec,

riders, thus preventing accidents and
interference.
One hundred and twenty-seven riders
will start in this race. Handicaps will
be arranged, giving some a start of
others. The time limit of their handi-
cap depends on the past achievements
of the riders. The distance is twenty
miles. The lake has been surveyed,

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Aug 10
Champion James J. Corbett and Rob-
ert FitZsimmons had an impTomptu
set-to tonight in the bar room of
Green's hotel, but neither man was
injured. Both are stopping at
Green's hotel. Corbett reached this
city about II 80 tonight from Will
mington, where he spared four
rounds with John McVey. He, in
company with his brother, Joe, and
some friends, went down to their
hotel, where they met Fitzsimmons
in the bar room. Corbett walked up
to the New Zealander and said:
well, you're shooting off your
mouth again about me fiunking out
of that bicycle race, and that you
would pull my nose. Now, I'll do
the nose pulling" and with this re-
mark the big champion gave Rob-
ert's nasal organ a smart tweak.
The two men clinched, but before
any damage was done they were
separated. FitZsimmons then turned
upon Joe Corbett, who had grabbed
the lanky fighter, and attempted to
butt him with his head. Joe broke
away from Fitzsimmons, at the same
time saying: you big --, you
can't whip me, to say nothing of
my brother"
FitzSimmOns reached around,
picked up a decanter and hurled it
at Joe Corbett, but it went wide of
re, III
and was in the act of throwing it
at young COrbett, when he was seized
by a special officer. When the quar-
rel had apparently been smoothed
over, Jim Corbett walked over to
FitZsimmons and spat in his face.
The New Zealander was apparently
not anxious to tackle the champion,
and was taken out of the hotel by
some friends.

KNOCKED OUT BY JACK RYAN.
Lively Battle with Wiley Evans
at Cincinnati


CINCINNATI, O., Aug. 10.-The Peo-
pies theater was crowded tonight for
the two boxing contests, under the au-
spices Of the Peoples Athletic club.
The first event, ten rounds between
Jimmy Murray and Charles Burns,
beth of this city, was declared a draw.
Then followed the hottest fight ever
seen in this vicinity. Wiley Evans,
colored. of this city, and Jack Ryan,
of ST. Paul, contested for the welter-
weight championship of Ohio and
$500 purse. In the first round the men
fought hard, Ryan landing several
blows on his opponents stomach which
made the colored man grunt. At the
call of time in the second round both
men rushed at each other, Ryan land
ing repeatedly on the ltomach, while
Evans played for the head. The third
round started with a rush. It was
give and take. Both landed right
handlers, which resulted in a double
knockdown. They took nine seconds
of the count in resting upon one knee
After rising, Ryan rushed and raired
blow after blow upon his opponents
head, finally flooring Evans with a
blow on the jaw. He laid until he
was counted out.
