THE PRIZEFIGHT.

(The following was written thirty
years ago, but is as timely today as the
day It was penned,)
Hammer ana tongs. What have We
here?
Let US approach. but not too near.
Two men standing breast TO breast,
Head erect and arching chest;
Shoulders square and hands hard
clenched
And both their faces a trifie bienched,
Their lips are set in a smile SO grim,
And sturdilv set each muscular limb.
Round them circles ring of rope.
Over them hangs the heavens blue
cope.
Why do they glare at each other 500
What, YOU really then don t know?
This is a prizefight, gentle sir.
This is what makes the papers stir.
Talk Of your ocean telegraph!
'Tisn t so great an event by half,
As when two young men 1usty and fall,
With nothing between them of hate
or wrongs.
Come together to batter and maui,
Come to fight till one shall fall
Hammer and tongs!
Round about is a bestial crowd,
Heavily jawed and beetle-browed;
Concava faces, trampled in
As if with the iron hoof or sin;
Blasphemies dripping from off their
lips,
Pistols bullying behind their hips;
Hands accustomed to deal the cards,
~, ln o,llx mn 10
guards.
Who are these ruffianly fellows, You
say.
That faint the breath of this autumn
day?
These are "the Fancy gentle sir,
The Fancy? What are they to herr
Oh, It's their fancy to look at a fight,
To see men struggle, and gouge, and
bite
Bloody noses and bunged-up eyes
These are the things the Fancy prize.
And so they get men, lusty and tall,
With nothing between them of hate
or wrongs,
To come together to batter and maui,
To come and fight till one shall fall
Hammer and tongs!
Grandly the autumn forests shine,
Red as the gold in an Indian mine!
A dreamy mist, vapory smoke,
Hangs round the patches of evergreen
oak.
Over the broad lake shines the sun,
Striking the upland fields of maize
That glow through the soft October
haze
Nature is tracing with langud hand
Lessons of peace over lake and land.
Az! vet this is the tranquil spot
Chosen by bully, assassin and sot
To pit two young men, lusty and tall.
With nothing between them of hate
or wrongs,
One with the other, to batter and maui,
To tussle and fight till one shall fall
Hammer and tongs!
Their faces are rich with healthy hue,
Their eve are clear, and bright, and
blue;
Every muscle is clean and fine.
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1910-08-21

After having Wrestled with about
thirty dishes at a dinner. and after
IAN this being called upon to speak,
Horace Porter declared that he felt a
great sympathy with that woman in
ireland who had had something Of Il
field day on hand. She began by knock
ING down two somewhat unpopular
aoents of her absentee landlord. and
was seen later in the day dancing a
liz on the stomach Of the PROSTATE
form Of the Presbyterian minister. One
of her friends admired her proves IN
this direction and invited her in and
gave her a good stiff glass of whisky.
Her friend said. "ShaIl | pour some
water in your whisky" and the wom-
an replied, ''For God : sake, haven t
| had trouble enough already today!''

The "cub' reporter had gone with

for nearly whole act, said timidly to
the older man, Il wonder whether any
girl could be as innocent as Miss Brown
looks. s. lou might ask her, Inc
older man replied. The ''cub' said
he a rather not; he didn t want to ask
so leading a question, but the older and
more cynical representative of the press
took him back up on the stage to see
the yound lady The Tcub'' gathered
his nerves and asked: "Miss Brown
could--er-any girl be as innocent as
yon look?' eyes. | thinfl she eeuld
but-she wouldn t want to be. -

And their blood is pure as the purest

And their blood is pure as the purest
wine.
It is a pleasure their limbs to scan
Splendid types of the animal man.
Splendid types of that human grace
The noblest that God has willed 10
trace.
Trained, and nourished, and kept apart;
Cunningly fed on the wholesomest
food,
Carefully watched in every mood:
Brought to this state. 50 noble and
proud,
To savagelv tnssle before a crowd
To dim the light of the ewes 50 cfeaf,
To mash the face to bloody smear.
To MAIN. deface. and kill. if they can.
The glory of all ereation-Man'
This the task Of those, luStv and tall,
With nothing between them of hate
or wrongs
To bruse and wrestle, and batter and
maui,
And fight till one of the other shall
fall
- Hammer and tongs
With feet firm planted upon the sand,
Face to face at 'the scratch they
stand.
Feinting tirst-a blow-a guard
Then some hitting, heavy and hard.
The round fist falls with a horrible
thud;
Wherever it falls comes 9 spout Of
blood!
Blow after blow. fall after fall,
For twenty minutes they tussle and
maui.
The lips of one are a CORY cash.
The others are Knocked to eternal
The bold, bright eyes are bloody and
dim,
Ana, staggering, shivers each stalwart
limb.
Faces glowing with stupid wrath,
Hard breaths breathed through
bloody froth;
Blind and afint. they rain their blows
On cheeks like jelly and shapeless nose;
While the concave faces around the
rope
Darken with panic or light with hope
TIL one fierce brute. with terrible
blow,
Lays the other poor animal low.
Are these the forms so noble and proud,
That, kingliRe, lowered above the
crowd2
Where are the faces so healthy and
fresh2
There, those illegible masses of flesh!
Thus we see men lusty and tall,
Who. with nothing between them Of
hate or wrongs
VIII bruise and batter, and tussle and
maui,
And fight till one or the other shall
fall
Hammer and tongs!
Trainers, hackers, and betters all
Who teach young men to tussle and
maui,
And spend their muscle, and blood, and
life.
Given for good, in loathsome strife
Fl know what the Dell will do for you.
You pistoling, bullying, cowardly crew,
He II light up his furnaces red and
blue,
And treat you all to roast and stew;
Oh, he II do you up, and he II do you
brown,
