He fights SO fast that he is al
most completely exhausted at the
end of each round, but the min
ute's rest sends him back as good
as when he started.
His recuperative power is even
more marvellous than his tremend-
Gus energy. Hoppe does not
waste his time in boxing. He
simply starts both arms going and
keeps them going like piece or
perpetual motion machinery until
the bell tells him to stop.
Less than year ago Hoppe
was fighting for $40 purses, but
his performances became so sem
sational that all the promoters
tried to secure his services, with
the result that he is now the star
of the four-rounders and is get
ting the big money.
Hoppe neither drinks or
smokes.

In each, a Princess sailed,
With starry eyes and dusk-kissed
The moon and stars were paIed.
