lack force while Kilrain did very eff
fective work. ,O'Donnell has gained
nothing in reputation by his work tonight,
while the work of Kirain was rated
high in Boston.
Both men entered the ring at $50
O'Clock and the weight and condition of
kilrain caused much comment. He was
fat and clumsy and weighed in at 800
pounds. 1t was apparent that he had had
little training, while O'DOnnell was in eX-
ceilent trim, and tipped 173 pounds. With
O'DOnnell were Ike Weir, James Mackay
and Billy Delaney
Kilrain was seconded by Jim Mccarthy,
Jim Shehan and Il. Gebhart while in the
background sat j. l.. Sullivan, whisper
ing instructions and words of cheer to
his old antagonist. The fight by rounds
was as follows:
First round-O'Donnell was the agrees
sor and led with his left, which was clever
ly stopped by Kilrain; O'Donnell then led
with his right and landed on Kilrain's
stomach, followed with q left swing for
Kilrain's head. Then O'Donnell got in
at wind. Kilrain led with his left, missed
and u punch sent him to his knees. Kill
rain took the limit to rise and was forced
to his corner.
Second round-O'Donnell forced the
fighting and a punch on Kilrain's nose
brought blood Kilrain rallied and with a
right handler on O'Donnells neck nearly
threw him off his feet. O'Donnell, with
a rush pushed Kirain and he fell. Ris-
ing, Kilrain was met with a left and right,
which he cleverly avoided. They clinch-
ed and Kirain caught O'Donnell in the
face, but received two stout punches in
the face in return.
O'Donnel followed with a half dozen
blows upon Kilrain's mouth and at the
close Kilrain was breathing heavily.
Third round-O'Donnell landed at will
with his left upon Kilrain's mouth and
registered a dozen blows without trouble
until near the close, when Kilrain swung
his left and met O'Donnelrs jaw sharply.
Fourth round-Kilrain was again on the
defensive He was fighting against
great odds and received great punishment
in the face and ribs. In the last minute
of the round, Kilrain, obeying instructions
of John L., which could be heard all over
the hail. forced the Australian boy to the
ropes and punched for the wind. The
spectators stood up on their chairs and
shouted for the BaltimOrean as he punch
ed O'Donnell.
Fifth round-John L. Sullivan discarded
his tile and patted Kilrain upon the back
as he was pushed from his chair. O'Don-
nell, with clinched teeth, rushed and got
punched in the wind. Counter blows were
exchanged and in a break away Kilrain
got in his left twice and O'Donnell planted
two singing punches upon Kilrain's nose.
Sixth round-Kilrain landed his right
with effect and got a swinging right from
O'Donnell on his ear and a right on the
heart. Kilrain's nose was now a bright

was making up his mind, John l.. Sui
Ivan, who sat outside the ropes, close
to Kilrain's corner, from which position
he had been coaching the BaltimOrean,
mounted a chair and waving his hat de-
manded a decision. He shouted:
whats the decision, Patsy? and when
a draw was announced he sprang into
the arena and rushed towards O'Don-

aside. Then he clasped hands with ALL

swinging his arms showed the latter how
the fight could have been won.
He was ready, he declared, to challenge
the winner if the referee had only named
one. The ex-champion was finally led
off by his friends and the scene which had
caused the widest excitement ended.
1t took referee Shepard five minutes
to make up his mind what decision to
make. Kilrain had the best of the
last round and at times it looked as if he
was going to put O'Donnell out He
had not the force, however, but his old
time pluck asserted itself and with
rushes he dazed the Australian boy, who
had been smiling confidently for seven
rounds and had landed at will upon the
Baltimorean. O'Donnell was the clev,
