They will carry him back" replied
Julian, whereat all chuckled.
I'll soon have a chance to do him
up,' said Fitz, "and stop his wind, put

Yes said Fitz, that is all there is
to him. only want to land once on
him.
While passing the penitentiary. just
beyond the outskirts of the city, very
little was said, Fitz being particularly
silent He had visited the institution
and saw the footprints of the preh1Stor-
ic man supposed by geologists to have
been IA feet high. While walking in
the vicinity the feet Of Fitzsimmons
had not made as large an impression
in the mud, but the other end of him
is SO organized that it is not impossible
that ne thought he was just as big a
man as his predecessor who took his
$50, 900 years ago.
1t was pretty generally known about
town what time the fighters were due
and the sidewalks were crowded with
people when the FftZ party drove BY
There was no particular enthusiasm
merely a how are you FitZ, OF wish
you luck or a limited cheer or two
from an acquaintance or an admirer.

BETTING AT FRISCO.
$1,000 to $500 on Corbett Finds No
Takers.

San Francisco, March 1.-THE local
pool rooms last evening were crowded
with people until long after midnight.
Betting was brisk in small sums, but
there was lack of Fitzsimmon's mon
ey Notwithstanding the tempting odds
of 10 to 615.
It was generally anticipated by COM
petent judges that Corbett might be
10 to ~ favorite but that the short end
should go begging at 611 came in the
nature of surprise especially as there
are many speculatOrs who take the
short end irrespective of their opinion
of the merits of the men.
John Humphrey, the bookmaker was
around last night to bet 81, 900 ON Cor
bett against $500, but he was not able
to place the bet. He figures that less
than $4,000 would be wagered in this
city on the fight.
There was a decided change in the
betting in the Hawkins -Flaherty fight
last night.
The Califonian's stock has materially
advanced in the past "A hours and the
betting last night was 10 to on Flaher-
ty. On Wednesday some of Hawkins
admirers got SO against 81. They were
naturally elated as they had an excel
lent chance to hedge part of their
money if they so desired this morning

Smith was first choice at 10 to 8 this
morning

coRBErr WINS THE TOSS.
He Chooses the Southeast Corner of

Carson, March 17.-The matter Of
choice of corners was decided by a
toss up" Corbett's representative win
ming the toss. He chose the southwest
corner of the ring, wishing to get the
sun at his back, and leaving Fitz no
choice but to get the sun at the north
east corner.
Charley Mitchell has come to the
front with a challenge to fight the win
ner, the following cablegram having
been received by George Siler, the ref
cree:
Mitchell has deposited a forfeit of
$500 with the Sporting Life to fight
the winner for 22,000 or Sullivan, with
IN any reasonable time, either in Eng
land or America Kindly cable your
reply.
ATKINSON, Sporting Life"
This is the second of the challenges
that has been made to the winner the
first being that of Billy Madden, who
on Sunday attempted to get the two
men to say that in the event of vic
tory they would fight Joe Goddard
There are others to come and it is like
~ that the winner may be challenged
by Peter Maher, Denver e. Smith and
Tom Sharkey- 1t is not at all likely
that either man will pay any attention
to the challenges. There is much money
in the fight besides the purse that has
been offered, and neither man is pre-
pared to throw away the chance of
making money by exhibitions and the
atrica1 enterprises that will be his for a
year at least after the fight.

HOW THE ARENA LOOKS.
Dressing Rooms Are Far Enough
Apart to Prevent Trouble.

Carson, March 1.-THE arena in
which the great fight was pulled of Is
situated about one-third of a mile from
the main street of the town and is To-
Gated in the center of the race track.
The structure is entirely of undressed
lumber and has no top Arrangements
were made for a canvass covering in
case of inclement weather, but unless
the snow came down in great force
and it rarely comes down in any other
way in Carson-the men were to be
compelled to fight practically in the
open air.
The arena Is a twelve-sided affair,
each of the sides being section, and
each section containing about 1,500
seats. The seats in each section We're
divided into three classes, those nearest
the ring held a $4O the seats next
above them at 500, and those at the
top, which were not numbered, were
sold at IS. All of them are good, al
though the view from the cheapest ones
is somewhat distant and the fine points
them. The ring was raised about four
feet above the floor of the arena and at
each corner was an iron post, which
was carefully bound up in cotton bat
ting to protect the men in the event
of their falling against it. The floor of
the ring was covered with canvass yes
terday, although Corbett preferred to
fight on the bare boards as the canvass
he said was likely to hinder the foot
movements of the fighters.
The entrance to the arena was through
one gate only and this was the main one
which is used for similar purposes when
racing is in progress From the gate to
the side of the arena stretched a side
walk of loose planking which affords the
spectators a passage over the mud that
during the last few days had been turned
into almost quagmire by the many peo-
pie who had been tramping around the
arena to see how it looked.
There are four tunnels in the side of the
building, one each from the north south
one of these tunnels was placed last
night a large white cloth bearing in
black letters the letters of the sections
which could be reached by the passage
outside of the building lead up to the SO
seats.
Big ushers. each armed with a huge
cane, were located at the entrance to each
paSSageWay and at the bottom of each
stairway, and it was hard lines for the
without the proper credentials. No mer-
cy was shown to the buffer and he was
uncermoneously hustled off the grounds
In justice, however, it must be said that
tne ponce arrangements were excellent and
that there was very little trouble in get
ting the spectators to their seats.
The ushers for the most part knew their
business and there was more difficulty
IN handling the crowd than there would
have been in a metropolitan theater of
much smaller size. Under the seats at
the west end of the arena was a small
shed about ten by fifteen feet which was
set apart for the use of FNftzSimmons a q
dressing room. The dressing room of
Corbett was situated at the south side
OF the arena The passages by which the
men entered the ring We're at right angles
to each other. The dressing rooms were
so located in order that there would be
no possibility of the men or their trainers
coming IN contact and causing trouble
