Women were smitten with the handsome
fighter, and his patient wife finally OBJ
1ected. An agreement to disagree quick
ly followed, and, like the average cham
pion of the ring, the old was sacrificed
for the new by the new hero of the ring
Corbett was not long single. His first
wife has since welded a wealthy East
erner-a business man who Is rated as
millionaire, and, since her wedding, has
dropped out of public sight and public
mind. She is a bright, patient good little
woman, and her happy second marriage
was source of great satisfaction to her
many friends.
JACK DEMPSEY'S VOW.
Jack Dempsey, 1.-The Nonpareil," prom
ised his wife when she agreed to wed
him, in Portland, Or, that he would
quit the ring and devote the remainder
of his days to some calling other than
fighting. In fact, the bright, pretty girl
who became Mrs. Dempsey would not
say aye to Jack until he had made the
VOW. Had he kept it he might today be
alive. But Jack could not resist the
temptation Of making 'just one more
fight" 1t was the opportunity of his ca
reer. he saba purse of $4,000 for a
battle with Filzsimmons. No such MOI
ey az that had been going during Demp-
eey's ring career He was certain he
could win: Then he would retire, he
told his wife, and she finally gave re-
luctant consent. She probably knew that
1t would be better for him to make the
battle that way than without her sane
ton, for she probably realized that ne
would make it anyway. That night, when
the many former friends had deserted
the beaten champion, a patient, devoted
woman bathed his wounds, and wlis-
pered into his ears words Of consolation
and cheer Dempsey was broken
hearted. He went from bad to worse
and finally died.
LESSER LIGHTS.
There are scores of others In tn.

love Of women, who were not bound
to them by legal ties. Jack McAu life.
Jack Everhardt, and 1 might name more,
but 1t would be scarcely fair to expose
any man whose relations in that direc-
ton are not already public property o.
the many fighters who have yielded to
the temptation Of pretty face there
are fewlwho, can truthfully says that
they have prof1ted thereby. I'M the cas-.
Of Jeffries defeat would mean obscurity
for while all the world loves a lover,
all the world also loses faith Ia one
who proves faithless. Should Fougere
carry out her announced determinat on
and follow Jeffries to America, more
will be heard of the Paris music hall
grisette and the big fighter. Such af-
fairs are not among those that cen be
kept hidden from the public.
