Amateur base bail has always been popu-

the fact that we have been so long without
a professional team. About 1892 the Young

1894 by the advent OF many college players.

PALAVER OF THE PUGIlISTS
Erne Gets Decision over LaNigne M
the End of Twenty Fierce
Rounds.

The lightweight championship was won
Monday night by Frank Erne from George
Lavigne of Saginaw. Mich. After fighting
twenty fierce and clever rounds Layigne
Went down to defeat and surrendered his
title in a most creditable manner. He was
plucky and game to the core, and for the
first half dozen rounds more than held mis-
own against his adversary.
In the seventh round Lavigne received a
terrible drubbing, and was only saved from
a knockout by the timely interference OF the
gong. Erne was looked upon then as a sure
winner. but in the subsequent rounds it was
seen that he had lost some of his steam.
Just what was the cause of this was not
ascertained until the bout had reached the
limit of twenty rounds and Erne had been
declared the winner. 1t was then found that
he had badly injured his left hand in the
seventh round, and If this had not occurred
Layigne's undoing might have come in half
the time that it took the Buffalo man TO
win.

In his triumphal tour OF the west Jeffries
brings back memories Of the combination
of thew and Drawn that invaded THE coun-
try sixteen years ago under AL Smith. De-
laney, the veteran trainer and the discov-
erer Of ~Jeffries, thinks that for the next
year there will be more money in going
about the country with a troupe of athletes
OF various kinds, and that the public will
take more kindly to it than to the WORKOUT
idea of starring in a melodrama which,
Brady had in view for JEFF after he had
whipped Fitz. Every man to his trade" "
says J%effries, and mine is not acting"
Jeffries and Delaney are negoating with
the various boxing celebrities, and if thefi
scheme pans out they will have the greatest
galaxy of boxers ever concentrated in one
attraction since the sullivan combination in
the early eighties, when Bob Farrell, Steve
Taylor, PETE Mccoy, Joe Goss and other
lights of the swollen gauntlet starred under
Al Smiths management.

II paid Sullivan s55, 900 as his share OF the
profits that season, and l guess that's more
than Corbett ever made as a Thespian, sal i
Al Smith the other evening. Sullivan was
the boxing revivalist. The game was as dead
as a door nail when he burst like a meteor
on the sporting horizon. The Allen-Goss
fight in Kentucky. the flight OF Allen to
England, the arrest OF Goss, and the dis
graceful rackets kicked up by the crooks
that attended that battle killed fighting.
There were no boxing clubs in those days.
and the spectators had to sneak out in the
woods under cover, like a thief in the night,
to witness a go.
But along came Sullivan, with his I'M
expected defeat OF Ryan and his scheme OF
meeting all corners in limited round boxing
contests. Sullivan's proves as a boxer was
not his only value as a drawing card. He
was possessed OF great personal magnetism,
and II he had never shone as a fighter, he
would have made his mark in som other
walk OF life-as a politician, / imagine, as he
had a leaning in that direction and would
have made an ideal hand-shaker, because OF
his ready memory and faculty for retaining
names and faces. Sullivan in two years
cleared $40, 900, but ! doubt if he had the
price Of a bottle of wine two weeks after
the season closed. The fighters, or, rather,
the top-notchers of these days, fight for
larger purses than John ever got, but they
never draw the money to the box ONCE in
their road tours that was pelted over the
sheet by the legions that focked to witness
John L.
II have often been asked II Sullivan, taken
in the zenith OF his powers, would conquer
the latter day boxer. Could he, for exam
pie, whip Jim Jeflries; that is, IL nature
would summon back all the physical abilities
of John l. Sullivan, combined with his style
of fighting, would he defeat Jeffries? I
doubt it. The boxers who are in their prime
today are more clever Of hand and foot than
the fighters who were in their flower when
Sullivan flourished. Sullivan was OF the
rough and ready type and charged on his
victim in a way that the boxer of today
would avoid by side-stepping and slipping
