lance of the Idaho line.
Mr. Moore found, on reaching Ban
mack, where Thompson had gone to
give himself up, that there was no
witness to the affair, and as the cor

was placed in the custody of the cor

Wont Down in the Third
Round. e..

ST. Louis, Oct. 23.-Joe Choynski, the
well known Californian, knocked out
Dick Moore of st. Paul tonight at the
st. Louis Athletic club in the third
round Of what was to have been a 20
round contest. Choynski was in splen-
did fettle and after the first round he
simply played with the st. Paul boxer.
this awaited him nothing as against
the superior science of the Californian.
Choynski had the advantage in
height, reach and weight, but Moore
was plucky and took the beating like
a stole.
In the first round Moore carried the
fight to Joe at every turn and forced
him about the ring with rights and
lefts to the body. Choynski used a
stiff left jab which Jared Dick badly.
In the second round Joe had his man
sized up and after a rapid exchange,
sent Dick twice to the flood with rights
to the jaw. Moore arose and made a
vicious effort to retrieve his laurels,
the round closing with both men ex-
changing hard blows at close quarters.
The third round was in Joe's favor.
He outpointed his opponent at all
times and put him down three times
in succession with right-hand punches
on the jaw. Moore was game, though
groggy, and managed to regain his feet
twice within the count, but while es-
saying to do the trick a third time was
counted out by the referee, Tim Hurst.
