WELL WORTH SEEING,
John L. Sullivan's Opinion of the
Coming Fight.

NEW HAVEN, Conn, Feb. 6-John
l. Sullivan, bound for Boston, stepped
off here long enough to get a cup Of
coffee and a sandwich. Sullivan looks
little like the champion ne was He
locks as If he must weigh nearly 300
pounds. He was kept busy answering
questions as to the coming Fitzsim-
n1ons-Corbett fight in Nevada. John
declined to express himself as to the
probable outcome of the fight, further
than that it would be we'll worth see
ing. He was more laxative on the
matter of the law permitting prize
fighting in Nevada. He said
DO you know that's one Of the great
est things that was ever done in that
state? Why that's bound to set an
example for these moral communities

between two men with gloves on their
fists and yet go crazy with delight
at the spectacle Of % husky young fell
lows shaking a football and incidental
ly breaking each others legs and noses,

Idea Of saying that boxing is more
brutal than football. That fight will
be a dandy if the men ever face each
other in the ring, and 1t looks as if
they were going to this time. No, 1

Pat sheedy Likes Bob,s Chances

am not particularly fascinated by the
conduct OF either gentleman as regards this
match, but l guess they are both on the
level now and propose to settle the question
OF superiority. In the past | have criticised
Corbett quite freely in the press and I am
now loath to say anything which may SAVIOR of
prejudice. / cheerfUlly concede him to be
the cleverest big man in the world and
would gladly be convinced Of his gameness
should the test prove it. l have been told
OF so many instances to the contrary how
ever, by people who know him well and who
are keen judges of puglistic merit that | am
reluctantly compelled to believe that in the
past at least he has not had a heart of oak
This weakness, however, physicians and ether
experts say can be overcOme-witness the case
Of Peter Maher-and Corbett may have rem
edied this fault. The Forthcoming battle
will tell. FitZsimmons, on the other hand
has never shown the yellow streak He has
fought gamely and often. He is almost
as clever as Corbett, although not near as
graceful. He has, however, a great habit
of getting there and that is everything
in fighting. Then again, he can hit twice
as hard as Corbett. In fact, he is the hard
est hitter in the ring. That I can vouch for
I saw him hit Jim Hall in New Orleans a
few years ago, and in all my experience
never saw such blow struck in ring It
was fearful. Can Fitz get to Corbett? That
is the question If he can, he will whip him.
If not, Corbett will wear him out in a long
fight. l am inclined to think that Fitz will
reach Corbett some time as he has everybody
else, and if it comes to a question of game
ness. think FitZ will win.

Editor Arthur LumIey Favors Fitz.

For a long time I doubted very much
whether either man meant to fight. AS our
old friend Dugald Dalgetty says, there was too
much talk of eating the bear before hunting
him. Now 1 am convinced that both men
mean to fight, not for any love that they
have for the task, but simply because they
would, in the expressive language Of Chuck
Connors, have to get off the earth" if they
did not. The sporting public would no long
er stand the pugilistic bunlo game they were
giving it. They knew this full well, and
will now hazard all on the cast of the die

one, l was alternately intimate with BOTH
With FftZ it has always been q mania that he
could whip COrbett. For a long time the
Californian, | am convinced. was a bit leary
Of the New Zealander. Finally courage was
summoned. and Corbett got to believe he
could trounce Fitz quite handily. l do not be-
lieve that he can. Fitz. whatever may be his
other faults, has courage and gameness. 1
can hardly say as much of Corbett. He
showed the white feather once with Mitchell
IN private encounter and may do so again
In a crucial crisis. At another time he
rushed precipitately out of my Office when he
saw Peter Maher coming UP the stairway.
He had ASSAULTED Peter-with his pen, not
with his hsts-and he was afraid to meet the
Irish champion face to face. These are not
inspiring examples Of valor. Fitz too is by
Tar the harder hitter, and the other qualities
which go to make champion-namely speed
cleverness, stiffness and ring generalship-
being pretty nearly equal, l look to Fitz to
win. A. IumIav

THE WOMEN ARE NOT MANNIsH.
Outdoor Life and Its Pleas
ures.

American women are rapidly taking
to out-of-door sports. Here are five
who have recently won distinction by
their ability to lead in the hunt, on
the wheel and the race course.
Shooting, cycling and fast driving are
some of the sports which they have
taken up, and not only have they ex-
celled their own sex by accomplishing
extraordinary feats in their chosen
amusements, but they are the envy Of
many of their male competitors.
Three of these women are modern
Dianas and have attracted a great deal
of notice in their respective localities
by bringing down game of all descrip
ton, both large and small. Their I'M
erring aim with rife and shot gun has
gained for them the admiration of
many an older and more experienced
man.
Another prides herself on having eX-
celled in driving fast trotting horses,
while the fifth has accomplished Won
ders as a century rider on her bicycle.
There is not the faintest suggestion
Of the new woman in the domestic
life Of any Of these women, and aside
from being highly respected in the
communities where they reside they are
excellent wives, mothers and daugh-
tiers, as the case may be, and sport is
followed by them purely for the health
full exercise and amusement which it
affords.
Mrs. Catherine Helsel is the name Of
one of these modern Dianas, whose
fondness for roaming over the noun
tains in pursuit Of game has left her

reached this month, bright, witty and
healthy specimen of womanhood.
At the present time she lives with
ner husband, George Helsel, South
Boardman, Kalkaska county, Mich. The
earlier years Of her life were spent in
Ohio, where she became a devotee of
the rod, line and gun. She accom-
panied her father, or brothers, on their
expeditions, and soon became an ex-
pert with the shotgun, and few birds
ever escaped her unerring aim.
More than forty years ago Mr.. and
Mrs. Helsel moved to a small town near
Grand Rapids, Mich, and every fall
spent several weeks hunting. AS game
grew scarce they continued further
north to where they are now located,
midway between the rich hunting dis
trict Of the Boardman and Manistee
rivers.
Mrs. Helsel early aspired to large
game and discarded her double-bar
relied shotgun for Marlin eight-pound
thirty eight caliber repeating rifle. She
has long list of deer to her credit,
and during one season she killed four
teen Of the f1eet-footed animals.
She is extremely modest in relating
her exploits with the rifle, but dclares
that she is never happier than in the

Mrs Belden is young, pretty and
ladylike. She wears a very becoming
hunting costume, consisting Of a cor
duroy jecket and boomers with high
rubber boots and a corduroy cap to
match the suit.
She is fond Of all athletic sports, and,
besides being a splendid horsewoman,
Is an expert swimmer.

any means. I admit he is bit more skill
full, and has the advantage In weight and
height. Fftz, however, has a shade the best
power. A game man can get to another, no

OLD ARTICLES STAND.
Fitz Has Not Signed New Ones for a
Contest.

NEW YORK, Feb. 6.-Robert Fitz-
simmons denies that he has signed new
articles for the proposed fight with
Corbett. He attached his signature to
articles at Taylor's hotel, Jersey City,
last December, and the same document
was signed by Corbett. These articles
are the only ones which have direct
bearing on the agreement to meet on
March IT.. A few days ago, Fitz tore
up the agreement signed in this city
last September, but such men as AL
Smith agree with him that the destruc-
ton of that paper in no way affects
the existing agreement for a bout with
Corbett. On the contrary, it lessons
the probability of any intervention by
the New York authorities, based upon
the violation of the state law, which
makes 1t a misdemeaner to enter into
an agreement in this state to engage in
a prize fight
