pummel each other with rights and lefts. and both boxers carry marks of their fierce bouts. Fitzsimmons takes everything that comes his way good naturedly, and at the call of time he IS ready for his daily wrestling bout, which is also q gruelling that general Iy lasts about twenty minutes. This concludes the days performance, and Fitzsimmons jumps under the cold shower preparatory to his rub down.
 That Fitzsimmons has lost none of his old-time sprinting qualities was demonstrated on the road the other day. when he finished the last 200 yards of his long journey in twenty, two seconds, beating out his trainers by several yards.
