Have you ever noticed that almost
without exception. thin, pale, dyspeptic,

This is of itself proof enough that such

Murphy around the ring in lively style.

0 land a single good blow. He stood
Up bravely and took his punishment
luckily as Palmer rained blows upon
lin with his right and left. The pluck
f the Yankee boy was heartily APP
,lauded. In the third, Murphy landed
once or twice, but did no apparent
!amage to his opponent. Murphy
tarted in the fourth with more ad

Round after round Palmer rushed
Murphy about the ring. but the Ameri-
can did not show that he had been
FINISHED much until the end of the
9TH round. Then he went to his corner

pulled himself together and made a
plendid fight in the 18th. Despite his
luck he was too terribly battered to
