The Vanquished Man.

The VanQuiShed Man.
The defeated man was just as good
as when, on the crispy morning on the
plains of far-away Nevada, he lowered
the colors of the then peerless Corbett.
He was just as active, just as clever,
just as tricky and just as fearless of
punishment. He went unfalteringly to
his defeat. He was the aggressor even
at moments when he was bleeding and
unsteady, and when, stunned by the
blows he received, he reeled instructive
ly toward his opponent. He was fight
ing all the time, and punished his op-
ponent, but found him different op-
ponent than any he had met, and diff
cult man to fight.
The fight was the most important in
the pugilistic world since the meeting
of Corbett and Fitzsimmons at Carson
City, March II, 1897. It was the first
defeat Fitzsimmons had sustained in
90 contests since coming to America,
not counting, the contest which he lost
to Sharkey on an alleged foul, and he
was strong favorite in the betting.
The New Champion.
Jeffries is "a years of age; was born
in Columbus, O., and is the son of
clergyman. AS Fitzsimmons held the
heavyweight championship of America
and there was no serious claimant to
the title in any other part of the world,
Jeffries by his victory comes into fair
ly well established claim of being the
world champion.
No Trouble with Police.
1t was a great fight to watch, and
commenced and ended amid scenes of
intense excitement. 1t was all very
dramatic. George Sler was the ref
cree. The men fought before crowd
of 5000 persons. There was not sug-
gestion of interference from the police
Chief Devery occupied seat by the ring
side, but never entered the ring. When it
was all over he sent Capt. Kenny in to
clear the ring. The contest was pulled
off without wrangle, and was devoid
of the brutal elements that Chief Dew
cry alleged he feared. Never was a
crowd handled with greater order and
less friction. 1t was all perfectly or
derby.
