and he was soon maullng again. Each
round ended with a hard mlxup IN the
last ten seconds. The rest OF the fighting
was slow compared with that IN Phila-

Brown seemed to be firing. He was
slower and his punches didn't have the

stumbling into the kitchen. He had
only been there long enough TO wipe
the sand out of his eyes when there
sounded the tramp OF many feet In the

and a bunch OF boys from the Boys

Brown Dressed Quickly.

In almost no time Brown was dressed,
and the gang"-Brown's gang-was
ready to start for the National Club.
At the door Mother Brown exhibited,
for the first time. interest In coming
events, and as she kissed TX. o." she
said: "Goot luck: come home a winner"
that was all.
Brown has never been known to say
any more than Is absolutely necessary,
and as they wended their way to the
club he was more than usually silent.
For a couple of weeks he has been
bothered with la grippe, and It was no.
ticeable that he was somewhat languid
up to the moment that hostilities In the
ring began.
When welghing-in time came Brown
jumped on the scales and showed that
he was about n and half pounds be-
low the required 1873. Some one carried
he scales up to Wolgast's dressing
room, and on the way there put them
out of commission. Manager Tom Jones
didn't care much whether or not either
man weighed in, but as there was a for
felt up both fighters adjourned to the
refreshment room n were there
weighed on one OF those penny-in-the-
slot machines. Wolgast being within the
weight.
Danny Morgan and Tom Jones are
what might be called astute managers.
When 1t came time for both fighters to
enter the rims Mr.. Danny VI. insisted
that Wolgast be the first to start for
the ring. Mr.. Jones was sure that
Brown would go first, and for fully
hfteen minutes the managers jockeyed
to see which man should be first to the
post.
This CASTOR and Alfonso performance
looked good for the entire evening, and
the spectators were getting restless.
when Knockout came TO the rescue by
starting for the ring.
I'm disgusted; should hays won with
a knockout punch" said Brown after

Who Looks Like the Coming

player, and he says that few OF the men
who were active with him In athletics
hen were men who had taken up sports
before they had reached at least nine
teen years Of age Using this knowledge
for the benefit of his own son, he kept
him away from heavy exercise untn he
had gained his fun strength, and to-day,
instead Of being all burned out
Harry is fun of vigor and nerve energy.

there is every chance in the world that
Hellawell Jr. will some day become Il
champion runner.
James F.. Sullivan says that he be-
lieves It would be a good idea TO limit
the schoolboys to one or two COMPETE

cut down to two a year.
I'm Washington, ID. c., the public

ticeable that when the young athletes

they often make good In athletics at

OF after leaving the high schools"
Wefers also o y that a grave mistake
Is made when the schoolboys are kept
