The Masters Title.

Professor Key when head master Of
a large London school was one of the
most genial gentlemen that ever filed
that position. He was fond of encour-
aging fun in his boys and was not un-
willing to recount occasionally during
class time when anything prompted it
the manners and customs Of countries
he had visited. On one occasion he
was telling his class about Spain and
said:
do you know, boys, that when a
man attains to eminence there he Is
not called SIR but is given the title
Of 'don?'"
One of the boys here called out:
"Then, l suppose, sir, they would
call you Don Key?"

pletely upset for the remainder of the

But his lordliest renown rests upon
the fact that he has won and held
three worlds championships as pu-
gilist, thus breaking the record. The
middleweight championship he won SO
many years ago that he has forgotten
the date. The heavyweight champion
ship fell to him ten years ago at Car
son City, New, when he knocked out
Jim Corbett in the fourteenth round
by obeying the then Mrs. Fits orders
to "soak i'm in the STATS" delivering
the world famed solar plexus PUNK
that made Corbett has-been. Then,
in his forty-frst year, this aged gladia-
tor won the light heavyweight cham
pionship of the world by defeating
George Gardner.
When you reflect that Fitz is not a
heavyweight at all and never was,
lacking enough pounds to be, his per-
formances take on new significance.
He has gone out Of his class repeated
ly and walloped bigger men to stand
still, or, rather, to lay down. That
is part Of the reason why Fitz is q
fighting wonder. When he defeated
Corbett he weighed in at 1861 pounds
against his opponents 1877 pounds.
Fitz never was really "big man.
He is big in the premises where big
ness is essential to fist fighting, bui
not big all over like Corbett, Jeffries
! and John L. Sullivan. Perhaps the
fittest description of the personal ap
pearance of Fitz, though it is a trife
fantastic, is furnished by a man who
saw him walking up the street one
day:
"Fitz looks like triangle standing
on it's apex"

Price of His Treason.

Benedict Arnold died in London June
IA, 1901. His life after his treason was
a most unhappy one. He was avoided
by men of honor and on many occa-
sions deliberately insulted. He re-
ceived considerable sum Of money
from the British government and made
several unsuccessful attempts to en-
gage in business in British America
and the West Indies and finally re-
turned to London, where he died in
obscurity. His second son, born in
l7SO, entered the British army in 1893,
served with credit in many parts of
the world and three years before his
death In 1854 was made a lieutenant
general. Household Companion.

"Then, too goes on the enraptured

and his chest is tremendous. His
arms, too, show that he is a man of

With which statement various other
gladiators of the age will agree with

Even Jim .Jeffries will not dissent, for
though he whipped Fitz twice. he has
declared that Fitz gave him the worst
beating he ever received in the ring.
Jeffries. by the way, is the only man
who ever whipped Fitzsimmons up te
