weight classes, with possibly a
few exceptions. never draw anywhere
near the money that the stars in other
classes do? The little fellows can al
ways be relied upon to put up the fast
est kind of battles, but for some reason
the average fight fan likes to see the
big fellows in actions; or If not the
heaYyWeights, then the Hghtweights.
Take Johnny COulOn, considered the
worlds title holder in the bantam
class, and his earnings do not begin to
compare with Ad WOlgast Packey Nc
Farland, Mike Gibbons, Jimmy Clabby,
or Jack JohnsOn's, and still the little
champion is a great favorite in most
of the cities where he has appeared.
Outside of a lew big matches Johnny
has had down at New Orleans, he has
not pulled down any big purses. It is
the same with Johnny kilbane, the
wearer of the former champion Abe
AttelPs crown. Johnny has not been
the busy kid like many others, grab
bing off the coin in all directions, and
it is doubtful whether he has ever had
a bout where his end was more than
$500 or $4,000. Abe Atteu was an eX-
ception, as the clever little Hebrew had
a knack of getting good money for
his services, no matter whether he was
fighting a champion or a dub. 1t has
always been the case with the real
small fighters, however, that their
drawing power mas Deen limited
Battling Nelson was probably one Of
the biggest money getters among them
all, both lightwelghts and heavy
weights, and Wolgast, too, has been a
big Garner. johnson has earned big
money during his two years of cham
piOnship enjoyment, having been a big
card at the theaters and music halls,
although having only one fight in all
that time. Mike Gibbons has been an
other good money getter for the short
time he has been in the spotlight, while
Tommy Rurns could hold his end with
any of them when he was travelling
about jim Corbett and Bob Fitzsim-
mons were also big money earners. but
they had theatrical companies of their
own On the road and that made a big
AS a vaudeville card, John
L. Sullivan no doubt beat them all. for
after he had retired for 10 years, he
came back as a vaudeville card through
his former popularity as a worlds
champion, and cleaned up over $500, 600.
Jack McAuliffe was another big
Garner. Jimmy Barry was a wonderful
fighter and bantam champion, but
never made much money, neither did
Johnny Griffin, another wonderful ban
tam. which goes to prove that the ma
jority Of fight fans like the bigger
ones to idolize.
The eastern debut Of Luther Nc

Carly, the white hope whom BILLY Nc
Carne has been nursing for some time
was quite an suspicious occasion for
the big fellow who had been training
at Col. DickerSOn's ranch, near SPRING
field, No While he did not stop jim
Stewart or have away the best of the
10 rounds of fighting, still he made
showing that brought favorable COM
ment from most of the fight critics and
Oldtime followers of the game. Both
men scaled over 200 pounds, McCarty
being pound under Stewart One
thing that was pleasing to the fans
was the fact that McCarty demon
strated that he can hit hard when he
does connect, for every time he caught
Stewart with a straight punch he stag
gered him He carried lots of power
back of his blows, which is what the
fans like to see with a heavyweight.
1t was Stewards experience that gave
him the edge on McCarty and often as
the men broke away Jim sent in blows
which the New York rules do not al
low. Big Luther also showed that he
has good left jab when he wants to
use it Taken seriously, McCarty looks
as though he will develop into a really
good man, but he needs plenty of ex-
perience before stacking up against
Jack Johnson, sam Langford and Bonn
bardier Wells.
While Jack Johnson is laying back
and announcing tnat he has given up
the fighting game for all time, his
great riTal-Sammy LangfOrd- is win
ming new laurels in far away Aus
tralia The tar baby met miStah Sam
McVea the other day in Sydney and
after 20 rounds Of boxing the Boston
man was declared the winner on points.
This is the fourth 2O-round battle
they have had within the past year and
half and honors have been pretty
well divided-the Paris fight being a
draw, while one was a victory for Nc
Yea IN Sydney, one a draw and the
last one victory for Langford. In the
last fight in Sydney there was not a
knockdoWn by either one, but still the
lighting was hard, according to the
cabled accounts of the bout, and Lang
lord earned a victory by good, clean
hitting. McVea was the cleverer OF
the two. but LangfOrd's rushing tactics
offset the big fellows jabs. This win
for the tar baby puts the championship
question a little nearer solution than
heretofore, as it eliminates McVea from
among the negro aspirants and brings
Lang1ord and Joe Jeanette to the fore
for a big battle. These two heavies
have been fighting shy of one another,
but now, that John Arthur Johnson
states that he is through with the
game, it may bring about a meeting
between Sam Langford and Joe 1t
should be great battle, too. for Jea-
nette is some bearcat himself, when It
comes to fighting. Then, let the win
ner get busy with the many hopes.

Little Armstrong, who passed out the

first game, was at his best and his

roughly in the opening inning of the
game, when the Millers landed on his
