partially covered her naked shoulders,

claws OF animals, and her bare feet were
protected by thick sole of horny patch

At the sight of the man she screamed
wildly, and attempted to rise and es-

was procured, and she was conveyed to

SMITH ourpo1NTED coRBErr.
Featherweight Champion Roughly
Handled by q Novice.

Young Corbett, who wrested the title of
featherweight champion from Terry Nc
Govern. was made to look like a novice at
Smith at the National Athletic Club. Phila-
delphia. Beginning with the second round.
Smith was all over the champion. landing
straight lefts and rights with freedom
that visibly disconnected his doughty op-
ponent. In the vernacular Of the ring"
Smith jabbed his head OF.
The first round very nearly ended the
bout. Smith made bad mistake Of forcing
the milling and mixing 1t up roughly with
the champion. This was entirely to the
latter's liking. and the Quaker boxer was
down three times in the initial round. TAX
ing the limit the first two instances, and
the bell saving him the third time.
This was the only time that Corbett had
a chance to stop his clever opponent. While
Smith was down three times In the remain
ing rounds. his falls were due more to slip
ping than blows from the champion. Prof
thing by the experience of the first round.
Smith avoided Corbett In the remaining
rounds. The Philadelphia man jabbed the
Denver boy with straight lefts until Cor
bett would force him to a corner, when
Smith would cieverly evade him or ciinch
Corbett was hog fat. The superauous It's
sue hung in rolls around his stomach and
back. He perspired freely. and pulled like
q wfnded race horse. In the early rounds
his lack of condition did not seem to affect
the force of his blows. but a. the bout pro-
crossed he tired very fast. and his vigor
was entirely lacking.
In the final round he was so completely
exhausted that he could hardly hold up his
guard. and had Smith been capable Of CIV
ing him the blow he could easily have ended

After Dublin had shown by his preiimi-

and Townsend are all big men. With them
it Is brains and cunning instead of muscle.

Figure the National League pitchers the
same way and the same results will be
found.
Said one Of the leading American League
managers recently:
THE pitchers who are doing the best
work in fast company these days are big
men. Give them to me every time. unless
the little fellow can demonstrate that he
has exceptional control and more than ordi-
nary Judgment. 1t Is the big men who
have the speed. and that Is what pitchers
have to have these days. Why? Because
the batters are getting next to that slow
ball: they are timing 1t with greater accu-
racy and men who haven't burst Of speed
had better keep of the pitchers slab. Even
medium speed Is not winner any more.
The big man can get more speed on his
ball. and besides can send 1t to the batter
at any angle that has an advantage over
the best efforts OF shorter pitcher. The
overland delivery. as exemplifed by Ma
thewson. is the coming successful style. 1t
Is the hardest for the batter to solve and
gives the pitcher the greatest amount OF
speed

The Norris Peters Company Nine
Wins by Is to 2.

The base ball team Of the Adams Express
Company went down to defeat yesterday
afternoon at the hands of the Norris Peters
Company's team, on the latters grounds.
by the score Of Is to 2. The game was one
sided from start to finish and 1t was
through careless play that the Express
Company managed to get in its two runs.
The game was well patronized, there being
over 1900 persons on the grounds, and. in
fact, all games nov played on these
grounds bring out large and enthusiastic
crowd.
w. Beckett and Gates made up the bat
terry for the Peters team. and what few hits
were made of Beckett were so scattered
that they did not help much in ran getting.
and not a man was able to steal second on
the strong throwing arm Of Gates.
For the Cypress Company Harvey and
Amber started in as the battery. but In the
third inning the Peters boys took very kind
ly to Hanvey's curves, and when the inning
closed every man on the team had been at
the bat and six runs stood to their credit
This was little tD0 much for Harvey. SO
he retired In favor OF Beavers. but even his
elusive curves did not f66f the Peters boys
as they landed on him Frequently and piled
