Boston, July 15.-Jimmy Barry OF
Chicago. the champion bantam weight of

Union Park hall this evening. A hot
battle WAS generally expected and five
hundred spectators were disappointed;
Young Barry proved himself a general
in the ring. 1t was the unanimous
opinion that he was a wonder. When time
was called both spared for an opening.
Barry landed straight left on Ross S
face, following it with another and Ross
begant to size up his opponent, and finally
swung a right for Barry's neck, but
missed Both clinched, but quickly got
away. Barry did very effective work by
continually putting the left straight in
Ross face. Ross landed his right heavily
on Barry's, jaw. Barry then jabbed him
several times in the face. When time was
called Barry had. landed eight straight
lefts and the round closed in his favor
In the second Ross opened with right,
settling on Barry's neck, but before he
could get away he got a straight left in
the face. Barry struck him heavy right
on the jaw, which dazed him, and before
he could recover Barry sent a left in the
same place, knocking him down. Ross
made two unsuccessful attempts to rise
and the contest was awarded to Barry.

Tasso, his IRE story should be so utter
" unknown. His Jerusalem Delivered
has been as popular here as the Inferno
Of Dante Americans have been the
most indefatigable in searching the au-
thorities for the life of Tasso, while
two American writers, Henry James
and Bret Harte, have been conspicuous
in the preparations for the coming cele-
bration. Not that it is difficult TO tell
the story Of Tassos life commercially.
Indeed, the biographies, the encyc!o-
pedias, the books Of critics are rich In
detail. We are told that he was born
ct Sorrento, in Naples, on March II,
1874 His father, Bernardo, was dis
tineuished as literary man, and upon
the birth of Torquato Tasso he was
destined for letters almost as matter
OF course. It Is curious, and at times
nonotonous, to observe how the lives OF
poor but talented youths in that coun-
try. and in that age, became tangled
with the careers of those whose riches
and whose power make the function OF
patron almost inevitable. Tasso was,
we read, no exception. The boy studied
under the tutelage of the Jesuits and
when his father was exiled the boy, in
1854, followed the paternal fortunes
lie left his mother in q convent at Ma
pies and never saw her again.
Young Torquato, from the moment
be entered his teens, became the liter
arr assistant Of his brilliant father.
He went all over Italy with him, study
ing, copying. correcting and, Of course,
writing verses, but the fact Is never
mentioned unless they blossom out a.

fact seems highly significant, for some

Unhappiiy, Tasso seems to have had
. fiippant strain In him, and 1t asserted
itself the moment he discovered that
right In it. He began to make love in
all directions. Practice made him SO
perfect that he had the audacity to try
his luck with Leonora, the sister Of
the duke of Este, gentleman so gor-
geous and naughty that even Gilbert
and Sullivan in their palmiest dsys
could not do him justice. At first
Leonora found Tasso's love equal to
anything of the sort she had had made
to her. subsequently the lady dis
covered that the low-born poet was
madly presumptucus In daring to love
her, the pride of the Adriatic, the star
OF the night, the gem of the aristoorscy
and q column and a half Of other
things So Tssso was clapped into
prison
But when he had languished there
awhile a number Of the susceptible
ladies of the court pleaded so hard for
him that they let the poor fellow go
after he had promised never to do any
thing Of the sort again.
When Tasso got his freedom he util-

femme was the poem thus evolved, and
the great epic made TIA appearance in
1877. 1t was the Trilby of its day.
Everybody was talking of it, writing of
it. fighting over 1t. Tasso was some
body.
But the critics and the scholars tore
the piece 20 skreds. They found flaws
in the metre, in the technique, in the
detail Poor Tasso was driven to distrac-
ton, for he was sensitive TO criticism
they had no mercy on him. What with
revising and rewriting and retorting,
the poet went from distraction TO down.

centric things, and in 1871 had to be-
sent to a prison hospital At various
times he was either released or escaped,
but was invariably sent back. Finally
he wandered in sbject poverty to To-

Finally there came a new outhu-st Of
