night l went over to San Francisco
from my home in Oakland and strolled
into Maynard s, which was then run
ming. | was just in time to see a fight
between two men, both Of them young
fellows, for n small purse. One of them
was Buffalo Costello. He beat his man
handily and liked the way he worked
so much that I brought him over to
Oakland with me that nioht.
The first thing / did, after a few
preliminary fights, was TO match him
against Tom Cleary, who is now dead
The two men fought in the old Coli
scum here in Oakland, and every mer
chant and professional man of San
Francisco and Oakland was ut the ring
side. Buffalo won the fight in three
rounds, but just as he knocked Cleary
out there came all sorts Of trouble
AT that time fighting was against the
law, and Just as Cleary was counted
out the police raided the place. You
ought to have seen those staid citizens
scurry to get away. The police round
ed up most of those in the building
and they kept making arrests Of those
that got away for two or three weeks
after
Buffalo Costello was genuine won
der, He was only 21 years of age, but
he defeated no less a person than Frank
Slavin, then heavyweight champion Of
Australia. He went broke after his
fighting days ended. The last time
handled him Was in '94. Then
matched him with Alex Greggains for
purse and a bet Of S2500 per side.
They fought eighty rounds to draw,

there are now in opposition to the fight
game. When / say "any man. / mean
it, for though Mccormick weighed only
about $50 he had standing challenge
in the New York Clipper to fight any
man in the world, But Tom also went
the pace and he IS dead
It wasn't till about 'S3, however,
that people out here began to show
great liking for the game At that time
Jerry Slattery arrived from Ireland
Jack Brady, Native Son, was con-
sidered the best man on the coast, and
l matched Slattery against him. They
fought twenty-nine rounds and then
there was a free-for.all fight. Charlie
Rooney, whom the old fellows will re-
gambling house, was referee, and in
the general mix-up he called the fight
draw.
Brady Hard Hitter.
Then l took hold OF Brady, and I
honestly believe he was the greatest
fighter of his age. He could hit as
hard blow as Jeffries with either
hand, and had standing challenge to
fight any man in the world. He beat
Herbert Slade easily when Slade was
in his prime, and he beat Clarence
Whistler, the wrestler and strong man.
with one punch. But Jack, too, went
the pace, and you know the rest.

The Top Notchers.
Now [ have TO come to what ism u
so much ancient history The three
men whom / haven't mentioned, the
greatest of them all, are James j.
man. Corbett won the championship
him until he lost it to Fitz. Then L
looked around for some one to beat
Fitz, and | found the man in the per-
son of Jetfries. | only knew Jeffries a
little while when the Chronicle pre-
dicted he would win the championship.
But 1T is hard to tell you anything
about these fellows that you don t
know. JEFF, of course, fought his way
to the top very slowly, while Corbett
really sprung from obscurity to the
championship in an afternoon by de-
feating Sullivan, the mighty John l..
jeff was going along III good shape
when he went up against a fool propo
sition. The big fellows were laughing
at him and he agreed to take on two
good men in the same night and finish
them inside Of ten rounds.
He got the decision over the first one,
but broke his hand doing it and had
to rest for some time. Then he came
back, stronger and better than ever,
and you know the rest Most of his
battles were fought here in California.
and not so very long ago at that Of
course, JEFF will go down in history
The Salt Lake tribune. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1890-current, 1906-08-19

as the greatest Of them all, for after
beating everybody in sight he had to
retire because the great sporting pub
lie realized that there wasn't another
man in the world who had any license
to go up against him, jeff is the only
undefeated champion OF the world, and
he is likely TO hold the title for longer
than any of us will live to keep track
of the game.

COW GOT DRuik.
Found an Open Barrel of Hard Cider
and went on Gag"

This mountain village is scandal
lied today. A COW, a poor innocent
COW, went on "jag" yesterday and
ran wild through the streets, crush
ing helpless chickens and dogs, fiaunt-
ing her tail at w. C. T. U. headquar-
tiers and mooing defiantly at the local
constabulary.
Hard cider caused it all. The cow
was leading the simple life in a pas
ture near the home of John Miner. In
the morning Miner placed barrel Of
the orchard beverage in the pasture
and left it open, so that the sun would
aid in the hardening process. This
lifting of the lid was the cows undo
ing. She shifted at the cider and de-
tected the aroma of apples.
Then she took a long drink. There
isn't much use in telling the rest. It's
the same old story with cows as well
as men. One drink wasn't enough.
She drained the barrel as far as she
could reach, and then she tipped it
over. After this she initiated the ex-
ample of one of her ancestors, by try
ing to jump over the moon, but she
only landed out in the roadway.
What happened after this is more
like a page in the comic supplement
than an actual historical event in
Normanville. The cow took short
cut to the heart of the Town and be-
gan butting into everything. This lit
ertlly. because she was moody cow.
When she had overturned wagons, de-
srroyed fences and smashed windows
she finally rolled into ditch and fell
asleep.
A posse was soon organized and her
cowship bound and muzzled. 1t was
thought she had rabies. All were as
founded when DR.. James Garrett pro
nounced her drunk.
