JOHN. L. SULLIVAN
 IN LITTLE ROCK

Gray headed and fat, though with powerful lines in his face and broad shoulders 10 contra dict the retundity of his waist line, John l.. Sullivan, the pride of the sos, and the hero of many a battle in the squared arena, ar rived in Little Rock Sunday to begin a weeks appearance in the Majestic Theater here. Heis ac- compained by his old adversary, Jake Kilrain, the man who gave him the hardest battle of his life not to get away with it.
 Sullivan has notbeen in Ark ansas for a number of years, but will visit Hot Springs an old favorite with him, before contin- uing his tour.
 Sullivan is as free to talk as he ever was, but he fights shy of the matrimonial question, "a game which he acknowledges is worse than that of the ring, though they are both short battles and soon over now days.
 Prize fighting now is a pud- ding to what it was when 1 fought Kilrain" says Sullivan "and 1 be- lieve that if I was back 30 yea S I would be the champion again inside of 24 hours. It would be a pipe to wallop that nigger. I was never as scientific as he, but I could deliver a right and left which would scatter the aroma of Africa all over the show. 1 fought 143 hard battles in my life, and in them all 1 believe 1 received more punishment than Johnson could give me if 1 was back in my prime. The boys are getting good money now days, but we got it too, and it did not cost us any more to go on. We had to blow it though, at least we did, and that is where the modern fighter has it on us has beens. When I say 1 believe 1 could lick the black champion, 1 do not mean to say he is without a punch and science. He has a bunch of yellow thought and some good boy is going to find it soon, but the crop of the White Man's Hopes now before the pub. lie will hardly take home his bacon.
