drawn. Sleet and snow were falling.
They fought forty rounds and both
were tired. King bumped his head on
the ground when both fell and this
was the end of the fight
They met again in November of the
same year, and after the eighteenth
round long odds were laid on Mace,
who, in going in to finish his man,
left his science out of the question,
and, putting in an expiring effort, de-
livered a right on the left cheek like
the kick of a horse. Mace however
lasted two more rounds before finally
outed.
Mace fought a stupid draw with Joe
Goss, but beat him a few months
later, August 6, 1866. He beat Tom
Allen at New Orleans in 1870, and
when forty years old fought a draw
with Joe Coburn.
Mace was we'll off at one time and
lived in Melbourne, Australia, for a
long time after being a racing man. He
lost most of his money there. | used
to see him in the bar of his place with
his bright well ironed silk hat, and
he would wear heavy astrakhan lined
coat even i'm sultry weather. He was
surrounded by many toadies, and they
would natter the odd man"-and how
he loved hattery He possessed a
wonderful diamond ring, and it an

not have this asset" One night Jem
dozed off in the back parlor Of the
bar and eventually slept very sound
ly Whether his sleep was "helped"
was never properly ascertained but he
never noticed the greasing of his fin

gem. ITS too bad he murmured,
when he discovered his loss. "Who
could have done ito | believe he got
it back by Offering a price, and hence
forth he paid for a "minder' or two
to look after him.
Three or four years ago it was very
sad to see the old man, nearly blind,
sitting outside a sideshow at a Christ

was being taken. He knew the value
of the coins by a sense Of touch. He
would still talk, however, about
racing, and many bank note was

NEW BOXING
RULES FRAMED

YONKERS, n. Y, Oct. 24.-Jacob
Skelly, the veteran featherweight, who
retired from the ring in 1892 and has
recently been appointed an official
referee by the State Athletic Commits
SIGN, has prepared a revision of the
Queensberry rules which he hopes to
see adopted for American boxing.
Some of the more important sections
Of his revised code are:
The weights for all champion con
tests shall be as follows: For ban
tamweights, 10 pounds; feather
weights, 100; lightweights, 1875; weller
weights. AS; middleweights, 1853; light
heayyweights, 40; all ever 10 heavy
weights.
Each champion shall defend his title
at least twice a year, if the challen-
ger posts a $1,000 guarantee. A cham
pion refusing to make a match shall
forfeit his title.
There shall be no continuous clinch-
ing, hugging orAwrestling allowed by
the referee.

NJ LOUGHLIN
ON HIS WAY

SAN FRANCISCO, October 20
Maurice Mclaughlin left yesterday
morning by the Shasta Limited for
Victoria, whence he will sail with
Wright and Larned for Christchurch,
New Zealand, via Auckland where
they will represent America in the
contest against Australasia for the
possession of the Davis cup.
\ large number of friends was on
hand to wish him well on his 1000
mile cruise after the worlds cIam-
pionship honors. Mclaughlin and
Wright have each made this trip once
before, and it is hoped and believed
that the second effort on their part
will be successful.
Prominent in McLoughlin's equip
ment, fans may be interested to know,
are two tin cases, soldered so as to eX-
clude the salt air, and containing four
teen Sutton star raCkets for his use.
Each racket has been most carefully
strung with the hneSt tennis gut, and
is of identically the same shape. The
variation in weight between the heay-
lest and the lightest club does not ex-
coed one-eighth of an ounce.
1t will be remembered that in one
match with Wright at New Port Nc
Loughlin broke five rackets.

Mace fought two great battles with
King, and rather curiously both event
ually found their way to the race
course. Mace, however, was never
more than a small ready-money book
maker, while King W quite a big
man, and this right up until his death.
Mace came to the fore after the
Savers and Heenan battle. There was
a great bullock named Hurst who
weighed over 21O pounds and stood 6
feet ? 1-2 inches. He had been a
wrestler Mace took him on, having
beaten a lot of men previously, in
Guiding Tom Slack, Bill Thorne and
Posh Price. When he fought Hurst
the latter was fifty pounds heavier.
They met on the anniversary of the
battle of WaterlO Mace has often
spoken of it. He said: 81 was all
over him and sometimes felt like
laughing. He would sling his arms
like a windmill. Still he stuck on.
They stopped it after fifty minutes
and gave me the championship"

Jem Mace, one of the greatest of
our English fighters, did not win his
battles alone by his length of reach,
but there is no doubt it was a great
boxing factor with him. | doubt
whether any fighter ever had a more
abnormal length of arm. The tips of
his fingers would reach a long way
below his knee. To this Latural ad-
vantage he added extraordinary scien.
tific methods, and | was most interest.
ed few years ago to see tins clever
est man of a past era pitted against
one of the most scientific boxers of
later days, Charlie Mitchell Both OF
them have spoken about it on a race
course, but now Mace is gone.
Mace, who lived to a ripe age, was
a gypsy. In his earlier days none
could touch him in light sparring con-
tests. but it was not until he was TWEEN
ty-three that he began to talk serious
ly with his friends of his prospects
in the prize ring. The only doubt
which many of his pals had was wheth-
er his heart was in the right place.
This was never proved conclusively.
There are various stories about con-
corning one of his meetings with Tom
King, but they are not authenti-

Mace had one stock compliment
when he kept his hotel. When any
big man was introduced to him he
would murmur. Looks like a cham
pion," and would he quite tickled with
his own cleverness in framing a
phrase he had used hundred times.
He always fancied he would discover
a hope to beat John l.. Sullivan, and
tried to make a New Zealander, Her
bert A. Slade, into a champion, coach
ing him himself. SHADES knees were
knocking together before he met John
l.. in August 1883, yet he lasted three
rounds.
AS stated, Mace made a lot of
money, but his most intimate friends
got the bulk Of it from him. He was
a child as regards business and was
most ingenious when he would ask
client in the small ring of a race
course to wait a day or two" after
the client had gone up to draw after
backing a winner.
Poor Jem Mace Everybody liked
him and no one could resent anything.
He knew every one and was an eX-
cellent racounteur as long as one gave
him time to get out what he wanted
to say Even toward the end of his
life he enjoyed his evenings at the
National Sporting Club He could not
see any too well, but seemed to have
an intuition what was going on the
same as in his heyday he had been
able to know what sort of blow was
coming to him.

There is just this much about it:
Dandruff is a germ disease, is

to badness. When chronic, it
is very stubborn, but surely
