WRESTLING POSE.
up again. The doctors took eight
stitches above my right eye and eight
more over my right cheek bone.
The cut over my left eye took seven
or eight stitches. Every tooth in my
head was loose. For two days after
the fight l couldn't eat. couldn't
move my jaw. and 1 thought it was
surely broken. One of my ears was
in bad shape.
Fitzsimmons, when he was taken to
the Olympic club after the fight to
have hot salt water baths and be rub
bed down, tainted as soon as the rub
ber touched his ribs. He tainted again
a few hours later when he tried to
raise his left arm to reach for a hat.
That was from my body punching over
the heart. Fitzsimmons right hand
was smashed. He landed 1t over my
eye and drove the first two knuckles
back over an inch, splintering the
bones into small pieces. He was
game fellow. Long afterward he ask
ed me one day if l had noticed during
the fight that he was turning his right
hand to land with the last two knuc-
kles. These were the only two left.
and yet he was hitting almost as hard
as with a sound hand. The joints of
Bob's left hand were buckled toward
the end Of the fight. but he didn't hold
back his punches.
And the funny thing is that a sport
ing writer in San Francisco supposed
to know something about the game
saw all this damage done in the ring
and then went away and wrote that
the fight was a fake He sent out
story that 1t was framed" for Fitz-
simmons to lie down In the eighth
round and that when the time came
Fitzsimmons dropped his hands to his
sides and said. "Hit me now" That
was funny when my own brother Jack
bet $500 I'd knock Fitz ont in five
rounds.
The whole country laughed down the
"fake" story. Ny friends all knew
that there wasn't money enough In cir
culation to induce me TO fight crook
ed fight. Fitzsimmons was always on
the square. The fight itself was evil

sets in the west. When this time
comes the people will have plenty OF
chance to see the wanderer.

that the election of two years ago
as far as county division was con-

not cause to be published in any Of
