JACK DAILY THE VICTOR.
Whipped Jimmy Lynch in Fifteen
Rounds at Alexandria.
BROOKLYN BOY WAS GAME
But Bad Cut Over the Eye Weak
ened Him-Was All Out When the
Police stopped the Fight In the Last
Round Swing on the
Jaw Did the Trick.

"Uncle Dan" Henry, of Alexandria,
threw open his doors to the sporting fra
terDity last night and gave them fistic
treat that was easily the best thing of
the kind seen in this vicinity for some
time.
He had a fifteen-round go between jack
DAILY, OF Wilmington, ami Jimmy" Lynch,
also put on a four-round bout between Two
local lads, Turner Jackson and Jerry Sims.
No decision was given in this bout.
There were nearly 200 members OF the
sporting fraternity present when Daily and
Lynch stepped mo the rng- the " n
mingtoD Iau was looked after by Tony
StaDnard and JACK Dorsey, while VIII
Northridge, jim Heating, and VIII Reilly
were III Lynch's corner. Daily had the ad-
vantage In weight, being probably six
pouDds heavier tnan his opponent.
The fighting was fast and spirited up to
the seventh round, when Lyncn received
severe cut over the eye In avoiding
straight right hand lab. lie saw it
coming and ducked So low that DAILY went
right over his head. In doing so the
Wilmington boys heel struck Lynch di-
rectly over the left temple.
DREW THE CLARET.
The blood flowed quite freely from this
cut, and although DAILY would probably
have won anyhow, IL wea kened Lynch con-
sderably. He put up stubborn, game
contest, and up to the nfteeiun round
honOrs were about even. In the latter
part OF this rOunu Daiy Idndcu Il Ilsnt ii'tiiU
swing full on the point OF the Brooklyn
boys Jaw that nearly put INN out. he
staggered to the ropes and Daly got IN
light tap on the side or the head tndt
fIoored MIN. He rose slowly to his feet
and succeeded in getting his arms around
DAYS neck, and despite the referee e1-
forts to break the men, hung on until the
lieutenant of police jumped into the ring
and stopped the fight.
This acton OF the lieutenant was unwar-
ranted, as he made no attempt To stop tne
brutal proceedings until he saw that Lyucn
WAS as good as out. 1t looked very mucn
as III he interferred to save Lynch from
being counted out The latter was hanS-
ing on Days ueck, all but out, and posi-
lively refused to let go his hold. Under
these conditions he cuuId have been counted
out, as the articles uf the risnt called Tor
a draw ii both men were on their ieet ana
able to fight at the end uf the fntfenlh
round Ine referee therefore AWARDED the
contest To Daily.
