NEW YORK, Aug. lit isn't at ali
strange that crack pugilists are good
eaters,'' said the old New York
sport last week. "Some Of the old
time champions knew how to order and
lived on the fat of the land. Tom Hyer,
for instance, was the idol OF the old
washington market butchers and could
go as far as he liked.
"'Here. Tom, is one Of the finest five
pound steaks that I've ever cut. I'll send
It across to the restaurant and nave It

Bennett, one OF Hyer's admirers, year
ago.

never cared TO eat alone.
John c. Heenan was a good liver and
always put up at first class hotels. He
rather surprised the sports OF England
with his lavish ways. He was also a new
type of a fighting man to them. They
had been used to the low-browed fellows
with the pugiliste swRgger and rough be-
havior. But Heenan was an American
tighter who wore a silk hat and fine
slothes and who lived like a lord.
when John Morrissey first came down
from Troy he was a rough and ready
chap, but he soon got in with the big
gamblers here and learned to eat and live

it, exclaimed Jeff, But the other fellows
put up such a stiff gum that the
newly made champion consented to be led
into a better restaurant. OF course It's diff
ferent now with Jeff. He has learned some
thing about high life and he can polish off
an expensive meal with the best Of them.
STANLEY Ketchel a few years ago was
a waiter in a San Francisco restaurant,
where he learned much about the gas
tronomic art. When he was training up in
Jerome avenue for his recent battle with
Jack O'Brien 1 sat at the dinner table with
him one day and discovered that he was
quite an epicure for a man Of his calling.
He knew what and how to order In good
form and how to eat it. Ketchel is not
such a heavy eater as Sullivan and JEFF
fries, but puts the food away like a healthy
young man with an open air appetite.
Jack SkeIly, the former featherweight
champion, recently astonished some of the
natives of Yonkers by ordering a canvass

a lot Of fancy stuff on the side for lunch.

when Joe Coburn was the special pet

lived at the top notch. Law thought moth

ana often staked Joe to a couple of thous-

burn many a time dining in the SWEETEST
hotels along old Broadway. It was Law
who gave away $4,000 worth Of diamonds
to some sports and pugilists at Saratoga
one day just as presents. 1t was no wonder,
therefore. that Coburn became a high liver

Law gave Coburn a couple Of saloons,
