He was showing a piece of steel in there when he rested his hand like that"-and the poor fellow put his own hand in the same gears and he fell fainting in my arms with two | fingers gone. If he reads this I want him to know I am still sorry for him. left behind enough coin to make him think he'd won that $500.
 AN OPINION OF HIS VOICE.
 When I was over in Paris was talk en around a great deal and one of the places I visited was the studio of a teacher of music. There was in the place battery of the finest pianos you ever saw. Thinking it was q good | chance 70 have my voice tested, so that if l wanted to go into the ballet when I got old, I'd be ready, I gave the keys of one of the pianos a right | hook and roared out few notes of a song.
 What do you call my voice, profess sor. tenor, soprano, falsetto, or what?" I asked.
 The professor clapped his hands ov- CT his ears, and when the windows stopped rattling he said:
 Don't call it, Monsieur Sullivan. don't call it; let it continue to sleep"
 A French army officer told me that if I'd stay in France he was sure that they could place me in the service az instructor of punching.
 Your way of fighting would be great at close quarters" said the French army officer. "When we meet the Germans again, our men would be trained for close quarters. fighting so that, poof, we disperse them like that!"
 During my visit to France as the natives couldn't very well understand my kind of French and their kind of English was as easy to understand as the yell of Q Baltimore oyster man. we put in most of the time sizing each bother up. Most of the natives had an idea l was chief of a tribe of Indians Tn America, and when I went into the ring, after training on raw meat I painted my face and wore ear rings in my nose. France is nice country but the food they give you is favored with hairoil and they have an idea that grown up has the aappetite of canary hird
 HE'D SAVE TWO GOOD MEN
 While in Milwaukee not long ago I learned that Frank Craig, the liar lem Cooler" wos singing hash in a res taurant there. George Dixon is stranded in England. Young Corbett is going ] " SN-S f'S-AA- AAAGoE AGH llpS UT now soon fighter can go to the bad when he don't look out for himself, ought to be warning to such promising material as Philadelphia Jack O'Brien and Geo. Gardner, two men who did look good to me.
 O'Brien has met Hugo Kelly four times. draw in Kansas City. in Chica go when O'Brien won, in Philadelphia when no decision was given but O'Brien was evidently on top. and last in h. dianapolis when Kelly won Gardner was walloped in Salt Lake City a while ago by Mike Schreck, who had no license to do anything of the kind. and the man who stored away Jack Root and gave Fftzsimmons one of the toughest fights in his carer took a step backward
 Both O'Brien and Gardner have come up through hard work. OBrien went I away to Philadelphia, where he wasn' |, appreciated, and walloped everything in England. Gardner went away from home where he wasn't taken seriously . and after hunting out the best men he could find in Africa and Australia came home to make good. Foolish living is doing them both up. I'd like to get 2 pair of them together long enough tc z bat some sense into them.
 f ABOUT BUBBLE BLOWERS. e The three -cornered taffy- passing swOrray goes on. Jeffrfes says F'itz is the real thing for heavyweight champ after him, Fitz says Jeff is a great mar and that one J. Corbett is the greatest boxer the world has ever seen. Corbett owns up that F'itz a middleweight i. a better man than he is. a heavyweight II and he says that Jeff is a better mar sg than ha ha both and ought to know. Fudge, pish v tush, rats.
 , Fitz has delivered the goods and il entitled to all he has He never got his = reputation because of educated feet But Jeffries has not only sidesteppeC z yours truly but he has ducked Marvin Hart after a dozen promises to mee = him. As for Corbett, when he puts foo racing above straight and above board fighting he might as we'll try to prove that a cruiser is a better fighting mach inc than a battleship. because it can run away from a fight. Those who mak' a trade at fighting know better. HaC ! been able to make Corbett pause long enough on his running to let me hand him one in his pantry. or on the jaw he would have different notions in hi " noddle when he woke up.
 carry more lard near the belt thar I used to do but the swelling has no gone to my head. The lard is beinl . trained from my front and few more months of this kind of wOrl $ I am doing will put me in shape t' # make some of these bubble blowers pu their flags at half mast. To begin witt I'll give history a jolt backwards b! . landing on Charley in September anC unless 1 am a four fiushe- of the two fer size the tall weeds will be populated by phenoms ard long distance pedes ', trains. If I don't, may never see Bos 70 ton and Billy Hogan again.
