THE PUGILISTS
BOB FITZSIMMONS
 MAY TUTOR.
PIainfield Police Might Become His Pupils Some More News of
 Fighters.

If Bob Fitzsimmons succeeds in his | present undertaking he probably will be sent for by the chiefs of police ot half dozen cities. At least he can open a correspondence school of in struction for coppers.
 The mayor of Plainfield, N J., is negotiating with Bob for the latter's services. He thinks the Cornishman, who lives not far from town, is the l very person to give policemen in- strnction in the manly art of self defense and keep them in training for their duties.
 No" said Bob, yesterday, T have not closed with the mayor yet, but he will have my terms in day or two. I know that Plainfield force and there is some excellent raw ma terial there. Some of the boys acted as my sparring partners while I was training for the Johnson fight. Do think it good thing? Sure I do. If it were part of the police mans duty to become an accom- plished boxer there would be no longer any need for clubs or revol- vers, except when dealing with the most desperate characters. What a town like Plainfeld or any other town for that matter should do is to erect gymnasium and employ a man of science like myself regularly. It would keep the policemen fit, and besides they would be out of mis- chief when they were off duty. Diff ferent towns could hold competitive contests and there would be no end of fun in it."
 Mayor Fisk is New York banker, but he has lived in Plainfield all his life and has always taken the liveli- est interest in the police and fire de- partments He is something of an amateur boxer himself and likes to see good scrap. Unless the Puri- tans object too strenuously 1t is like ly he will make some sort of deal with Fizsimmons.

Fully $4,000 people thronged tho
streets of Anna and the fair grcunds

and it is doubtful If that pretty town
ever before held such Nbig crowd.
General Martin, the presiding Off
Ger of the association made the open
