tacks before, his condition was not
Thought to be dangerous till after din
ner, when he seemed SO bad that DR.
Graham aud DR. Mauown were both
called in. They gave him opiates TO
relieve the pain, bat he grew rapidly
worse and expired at $3.50 O'clock that
evening. He would have died several
hours sooner only that a number of
friends worked with him INCREASINGLY
and kept life in him little longer,
hoping that change for the better
would take place. The funeral oc-
Cured Sunday afternoon out at Ma
sontown and the services were held in
the NJ. T. Church, conducted by Rev
Geo Trach of the Presbyterian church
of Kingwood The burial took place

at the Seattle theater Tuesday and Wed
nesday evenings.
The views show the entire ing and tn

plainly shown. After the light ends Ref
cree Siler can be seen picking his way IN

whom he has a talk. Muldoon the time
keeper, is plainly seen all through the
fight. Low Housemln. e'itzsinl,nons'
t!mekeeper. IS also N full view as well
as Billy Madden. The views expose a
questionable tricky action by Houseman,
who, as the gong was about to sound for
the end of round. would raise his hat
In the air to signal to Fitzsinimons and
his seconds the expiration of the three
minutes.
The fact is demonstrated by the views
that Fitzsimmons is clearly the better
man, and that he won by no fuke or foul.
The blows that Corhe.t showered on FitZ-
simmons head. beginning In the third
round and ending Ia the sixth. are true
to life.
The many blows rained on Fitz In tho
sixth that resulted In the Cornishman be-
ing sent to his Knees for eight seconds
make many think they see real fight
before them.
The photographs prove that Fltz was
not weak at the tirue az was evidenced
by the manner in which he held himself
UP. He was not out, however. nor any
where near out. Al the conclusion Of the
ninth second he sprang to mis- feet and
batt,ed Corbett back 10 his corner"
The weakness of corbett will be shown
from the seventh r,und on, though there
was continuous hard lighting throughout.
The last round Is well brought on. Fitz
Is seen trying 10 put out tori'ct., who was
as active as ever but his blows lack
steam II they ever had enough to do seri-
Gus injury 70 MAJ ike Fi.x. The Cor
nishman is TO longer forcing Corbett 10

reproduced blows are right and left

head hack violently. They come close to-
Eether with Fiszsimmons' back TO the

falls suddenly TO the floor.
