held his reputation yesterday afternoon
as the eIeverest lightweight in the Pa
cifc fleet and boxed all round young
Fox. The extraordinary thing about
nit Fox the more he seemed to like it..
There have been some famous punish
ment gluttons in the ring but, go down
the whole list, and it will be hard TO
find a more confirmed gastronomiss of
that variety of grub than Fox of the
Perry.
Trinkle gave a great show of clever
boxing and also proved that he had a
decided wallop. Fox gave brilliant
demonstration of the man who refuses
10 be hurt. This was Fox IS third ap-
pearance in a ring and, while he showed
nothing very much in the way of clever
ness he certainly did show the most
wonderful gameness and aptitude for
using his brain when in tight corner.
There was nothing but reclamation
when Paddy Ryan held up Trinkle .
hand in token that he had won, even
Fox's hackers admitted that he had lost
the decision, but the fans were very
well pleased with the showing that the
lad from the Perry made and there was
a general sentiment that he will be a
great boxer some day if he stay by the
game.
Trinkle is a miniature edition of Gun
boat Smith with none of the latter s
awkwardness. He has a tremendous
reach and heavy shoulders that enable
him to hit hard. He Sims down from
the hips and is very fast and shifty
on his. feet Take him all around he
sizes up like a typical lightweight
boxer.
Both lads were in good condition al
though Fox showed signs of distress at
times. Trinkle s straight left which he
followed with right hook to the jaw
were very effective all the rnne and he
always had the better of lit in the ex-
changes. Fox would shake his head
but, unlike Battling Nelson, the past
master of that art, he was unable to
land intelligently when he did come on.
The first event was a slap-bang six
round go between soldier Mccullough
and Chuck Corners of the Pennsylvania.
The soldier had all the better of the
first three rounds and had the sailor
trife groggy at times, but Corners
came back during the last three periods
and evened matters up sufficiently to
entirely justify Paddy Ryan in his
draw decision which was we'll received.
The second preliminary was a dull
affair in which Waller of the Pennsyl-
vania entirely outboxed and outgener-
allied Jack McFadden. The latter in
sisted on a draw decision if both men
were on their feet at the end of the
go and. for that reason, Ryan gave it
a draw, but it was patent to everybody
that Waller had very much the better
of it. McFadden evidently looked on
the whole thing as joke and lost more
of his waning popularity by foolish an
sies and much unsportsmanlike use of
the elbow.

Leahy were introduced, and it was
stated that Reilly challenged Mead
