robbed the old lion of his strength,
one of the punches that reached a
vital spot on O'Brien's anatomy
would have had story in it that
has often been told. But the jolt
was gone and Fitz lost.
All through the battle O'Brien
held his head like a great general
and never once did he take a
chance with Fitz, showing the
greatest respect for the worn out
mitts Of the Cornishman.
But so long as O'Brien remained
on the defensive Fitz was power
less. Probably never before in the
history of the ring sport did
fighter show such wonderful abil-
ity in both protecting himself and
evading punches. Many of the
wallops that have made Bob one
OF the most feared men missed fire
so far that they looked ridiculous.
The crowl was always with Fitz,
but when the battle was over it
woke up to the fact that O'Brien
had carried out his plans to let
ter and had won a well earned
battle.
Until the eighth round Fitz
showed some of his old time form,
but On the remaining rounds Jack
used Bob as a punching bag and
cut his face in shreds. O'Brien
proed beyond doubt that he had
something in his makeup besides
cleverness, and while l do not think
that he would stand a very good
show against Jeffries, he would
make any of the other heavy
weights look rather cheap. Even
Marvin Hart would look like a Sec
ond rater before him at the present
time.
Fits career will go down in the
annals of ring sport as the most
wonderful ever known. And unlike
most great men who have fallen by
the wayside, he will always be pop
ular and have a great following.

Prisoner. Have outside Help.

FREMONT, Neb,, May 4--(speclal)-
Further investigation of the attempted Jail
delivery of last night shows that the men
must have had help from outside. The bolt
bars OF the cells were sawed Off, a grating
over where a furnace once stood had been
loosened so that It could be taken UP and
an entrance effected into the tower at the
northeast corner of the building, which is
not now in use, and the rest of it would
have been easy. The work was evidently
done with fine steel saw which, with sew
eral knives, a razor and a piece of gas
pipe, were found in the place. The escape
had evidently been planned for last night
as it was supposed the sheriff was out OF
the city, but he had got wind of the affair
and did not go. When they had got through
the grating they had started to tunnel into
the jail cellar and had already dug for
about sixteen feet.

Miss Sailing Tells of Experience I'm
COntaEiOn ward In Frisco.
SPRINGFIELD, Neb., May A-(Special.)-
Miss Della Sailing daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs w. b. Sailing of this place, went 20
California about one year ago, and at the
time Of the recent earthquake was nurse
in the county and city hospital in the
stricken city. Her home was in Oakland,
and to that place her parents sent several
kilograms, but no answer came from
them and the days went by they had about
given her up as dead, and not until April
"a, six days after the terrible catastrophe,
did they know whether or not she had
persisted. In a letter dated County and
City Hospital, San Francisco, April 20,
and received here April "A, she wrote Of
| her safety and experience, much to the re-
| lief of her grief-stricken parents and
| friends She wrote: our hospital is
crowded and we have sick and dead lying
| on the ground. I am in the contagious
pavilion and we have forty-eght babies
! with measles, scarlet fever, diphtheria and
| all kinds Of contaglon. We have nothing
to eat but bread and milk. We have had
| no water to drink for two days"
She tells how the hospital was finally
saved from the flames by the blowing vi
Of six blocks Of buildings on all sides OF
them, and in closing says: Il would start
for home, but 1 would not desert my duty
| now"
