used the Assesses were about well and cough
had practically stopped.
He took three bottles of Lung Germine in
all when he was completely cured. Below

PHILADELPHIA, May 20.-Jack
Johnson will not do as champion
That is the consensus Of opinion Of the
sporting experts who saw last nights
battle. when the giant negro, who holds
the title Of champion heavyweight Of
the world, failed utterly to make a
creditahIe showing against Jack
O'Brien, the local light heavyweight.
johnson cannot punch. He has the
height, the reach. and the weight, but
he was slow as molasses last night and
he had not the strength behind his
blows to stow the white man away de-
spite the fact that several times he
landed on a vital spot
Johnson acted as though he was still
afraid of punishment and held back and
awaited his opponent flat-footedly with
the result that O'Brien danced in and
out like a hornet, landing at viii. and
In most OF the rounds outpOinting the
negro. But even O'Brien's friends will
not clam any worlds championship for
him OF the strength OF what he did last
night He could not hit, but that had
been expected. and the only damage he
showed on the negro was to bang up
the latter's left eye trifle.
In the first three rounds O'Brien land
ed enough blows to get a clear lead on
points although in the first, Johnson
got one hard left to the stomach. and
twice in the same place in tie second

Johnson Will Not Do as a Champion,
Say Majority of the Fight Scribes

In the third, however. Johnson was
badly confused by OBrien's stabbing
away with the persistency of hornet
and was putting like porpoise at the
bell.
In the fourth Johnson tried TO force
matters, but quickly winded himself.
and here his lack Of condition showed
very plainly, and he finally stalled while
O'Brien danced around and added a few
more points TO his list.
In the fifth Johnson cornered o 'Brien
and closed his eye, sending him to the
floor hard. This was the only period
where the negro actually fought, and
he had O'Brien in distress, but was Un-
able to finish him.
The sixth was a prize waltz, with
O'Brieu doing most Of the leading and
clinching whenever he got into trouble
The fact remains. however, that John
son was not trained, and was lucky
that he was not fighting a real hard
bitter. Johnson had insisted on a guar
antee Of S., 900. and that was all he got.

man before he is fighter. demanded

was handed s10.375 as his share.

Coored Heavyweight Fails to Show Any Signs
of Championship AbiIity-P -Philadephian
Held Slight Shade
By THOMAS S. RICE.

JACK Johnson seems to have made a
poor showing against Jack OBrien in
that six-round go in Philadelphia last
night.
Even the E~sterical young persons
who have been filing their columns for
many months telling US what a world
beater the negro is have had to come
off their pershes and admit that the
Philadelphia faker astonished their eb-
ony idol. In fact, some OF the climbing
down noticeable in the morning papers
today was quite comicaI. The fulsome
boosters of lii Artha', as they have
been wont TO denote the negro in fond
pleasantly, have had TO back up, and
now they are hedging On the PROPOSE
ton and trying to do it gracefully.
They should plead insanity.
Never Thought Him Great.
AS a matter of fact, the present writ
er has never considered johnson a great
pugilist. and referred inquirers to the
negro's record. which was duly set forth
in Tom Andrews sporting annual He
had failed to knock out Joe Jeanette
in six bouts. and failed to damage TO
any appreciable extent the anatomy Of

fellow carry the battle to him He got

since Johnson went on Burns trail2
II johnson had half the cIeverness
witll which he has Keen credited his
longer reach should have enabled him
TO sta2 off O'Brien and save himself
from the incessant jabbing and sting
ing which he is said to have received
That wonderful science about which
we nave heard so much was lacking.
Johnson Fought To Form.
The truth is that johnson fought ex-
actly TO the form re mad displayed In
otheJ bouts and that form was NOT
Soof. enough to hold O'Brien in check
for six rounds. All of the newspapers
are not so enthusiastic about the big
margin O'Brien is claimed 70 have had.
A majority of the critics at the ring
sioe gave O'Brien at least a shade, but
some Of them put Johnson in a much
better light than others.
As far as the scrap giving a line on
a fight between Johnson and Jeffries is
concerned. there is little TO be said.
Johnson showed what he was for a short
engagement. but there is no way Of tell
ing what he would have done in twenty
OF forty rounds. He was kept on the
jump by an extremely annoying but not
dangerous opponent When he meets
Jeffries it will be a different PROPOSE
ton. for JEFF is no jumping-jack, and
it will be more OF a case of two big
men whaling away at each other. JEFF
fries win not be able to turn the light
ming feints and fancy footWork Of
which the lighter O,Brien is a past mas
ter. and the negro will have a better
chance to get into action. Al least,
that is the way it sizes up to US. When
Jeffries was in condition Johnson would
have had little or no show against him.
but is Jeffries going 10 be his old self
when they meet? If you can answer
that, you will know who is going to
