HAYES STALLS
JUST TO STAY
British Fighter Outpoints
Opponent in Every One
of Twelve Rounds.

Boston, Mass, Jan. 2O-They simply
can't beat this fellow Driscoll.
Jem fought his third fight with Gro
yer Hayes, the Chicago boy, before the
Armory A. A. last night and beat him
at every stage of the twelve rounds of
milling. Hayes. a boy who has fought
fierce six round tits against the best
feather-weights America boasts and
held his own, looked like a third rater
in the face of the marvellous boxing
of the man from over the seas. He
never was in the hunt and was forced
to cover and stall to stay the limit with
the Briton.
Driscoll made mark of his oppo-
nent. He outboxed him, outgeneraled
him and, were it not for Growers care
fulness. probably would have scored a
knockout. The fans sat in amaze
ment and watched the Briton dance in
and out, beat Hayes to every punch,
tie him in knots with clever feinting
and do everything that a fighter can
do to earn victory on points.
After the fourth round Hayes de-
voted his attention to covering UP in
order to stick the bout out. He COW
cred up so perfectly that, try as he
might, Driscoll could not find a spot
on which to slip over the dream punch
In the last round the Briton tainted
Hayes, in fact begged him to come out
of his shell and fight. but Grover
thought discretion the better part OF
valor and hid behind a bulwark OF
forearms until the final bell changed
The bout proved that there isn't &
feather weight in this section who has
a chance with Driscoll. 1t is up to Abs
Attell, and the champion will meet the
best man he ever fought if he climbs
through the ropes to do battle witt

er, should have been in the court OF

a charge arising from domestic in
felicity. Frank Wheaton appeared for
the prize fighter and asked that the

saying that Johnson would probably
never return to this country and was
practically a fugitive from justice.

and Jeffries won't say the word"
Every one in court laughted at this re-
mark and the case was finally set down

Letter From Australia States Thas
Tommy Organized the Cham

San Francisco, Jan. 2o-Tommy
Burns was really the Hugh D. McIn-
tosh syndicate of Sydney. This was the
story contained in a letter from Aus
tralfa to a we'll known sporting man
here today who said that Burns was
really the syndicate and that he ac-
tually promoted the affair in which he
met defeat
Sporting circles here are inclined to
credit the report, as many wondered
why Burns would let so big a slice
of money get away from him in the
match as that which was supposed to
have been picked up by Mcintosh.

BY HENRY NJ. HOYT, JR.

Unmoved, among the motley of the
market place he stands,
With the deeds of divers races in his
little grimy hands;
Round the press of thronging thou
sands, in the thick of straining
strife,
He will cry you for a copper all the
traffickings of life.
Though you hail from sunset Stands
girt by seas of jeweled foam,
He can cheer o on your journey with
a greeting from you home;
Though your heart is linked by memo
ries to the countries of h morn,
He can barter you a message from the
land where you were born.
Through the strident stress of noontide,
through the blazing bloom OF
night,
Down the slow. slack hours of morn
ing, ere the coming of the light,
In the times of joy and laughter, in
the darkest days of dearth,
He can give you brave adventures
from the farthest ends of earth.
At the portals of the city, at the gate
ways .of the sea,
Where the ringing wheels of
shout their sounding symphony,
Where the flags of every nation are to
all the winds u~nfurled,
He will sell you for a penny all the ro-
nance of the world.
