Naughton LaudS Peter Jackson
*s* +s#
AuStraIia'S Most Perfect Boxer

tremely clever. having the fine points
of the game at their command to d
degree which made them appear
graceful in action. Among these Jim
Hall was prominent and Steve O'Don-
nell was another; George Mckenzie,
lightweight, was a very talented
glove wielder and that scamp, George
Mulholland, could make almost any
man who opposed him look foolish.
Fftzsimmons boxed cleverly when he
first came across, but when he began
to study anatomy and devise knock
out punches, he sacrificed art to
utility.
DETER JACKSON was the most
talented exponent of the Mace
school of boxing the writer ever came
across. He knew how to lead and
counter, and time and measure, and
his footwork always rhymed with his
first play. He would duck, snap back
and sidestep in a bewildering way and
he appeared to be always within
range when his adversary tried retail
iation.
l remember Jackson's first match
at the old California Athletic Club in
San Francisco back in 1888. His OPP
ponent was George Godfrey, the Bos-
ton colored heavyweight who, on ac-
count of his endurance, was known 3 s
"Old Ironsides." / Will never forget
the panied look which came ove~
Godfrey's face when he first ran foul
of the Jackson straight left. Peter,
who seemed to have an arm as long
as an oar picked Godfrey off his feet
with a lunging blow and placed him
on his honkers in the floor. Godfrey
had proved himself a game fellow in
many hard fights but as he sat there
that night the expression on his coun-
tenance was one of mingled surprise
and encouragement.
A little later in the evening, George
received a heart punch from Jackson's
right and with glazing eyes and quiv-
ering ribs he feebly held hand aloft
and acknowledged defeat.
TACKSONS accurate knowledge of
J timing was shown in his battle
with Big Joe McAuliffe, the Mission
Giant. For a number of rounds Jack
son prodded the giant with straight
lefts and kept his own head bobbing
to escape McAuliffe's numbering back
fire. Then Jackson tented McAuliffe
into leading with the left. Joe
Strengthened his arm and Jackson
threw his head aside and allowed the
blow to pass over his shoulder. While
doing so he brought his right across
and a sharp spat followed by a trickle
of blood from big Joe's ear, showed
that the giant had been effectively
and heavily countered.
After that poor Joe was cut down
slowly and scientifically. He was too
big to take liberties-or rather
chances-with and Jackson whipped
him artistically and came out of the
melee without a scratch.
| am wandering away from the
point however, and illustrating how
dangerous it is for time critics to
reminisce.
In answer to my correspondent
will simply repeat that Peter Jackson
was the most perfect boxer of all
the Australians | had opportunity Of
studying.

TILLiE RITCHIE, lightweight
I champion, who defeated Riv-

Nv Lille RlICIilH' HshI"eIsh'
w champion, who defeated Riv-
ers, July 4, at San Francisco,
says that Geary Steffen is his proper
monaker when in any society but that
of the prize ring
When Steffen decided to shake the
dust Of his fathers coal yard from
his shoes and take up fighting as a
business he grabbed the Richie name
to satisfy Papa Steffen, the latter not
caring to have any notoriety of the
fighting brand added to the family
name.
Papa Steffen was very much OPP
posed to the youngsters entering the
ring under any circumstances, but
he soon found that there was no use
kicking. Now that Richie has won
the lightweight title and made a small
fortune In a little more than four
years the elder Steffen IS said to be
almost willing to have willie
Richie" cast into the discard and let
the boy sail under his proper name
Pa Steffen has never seen the boy
fight, and never will, he says.
Richie is a Native Son, having
been born in San Francisco February
10, 1891. At the proper age he was
chased to school and received a good
common school education Then he
went to work in the Steffen coal yard
taking his full share Of the hard work
and to this Richie says he owes hi;
strength.
Four Years in Ring.
Some four years ago Geary did his
first fighting. And II was in the
Dreamland Pavilion, San Francisco
where the four-round stars scintillate
A boxer named Willie Richardson was
billed to fight in one of the minor
preliminaries, but at the last minute
Richardson failed to put in an ap-
pearance, and the call for a substi-
tute brought forth tall, likely look
ing chap.
The announcer and Geary had a
short argument and it was over the
name that would carry the pugilist
through his fistic career After much
debating Willie Richardson's name
was cut to Richie and to this day
Geary Steffen has been known as VIII
lie Richie.
That night he fought a fellow ny
the name of Monk Enok, and Monk
lasted less than two rounds.
Since the night he fought MONK
Enok, Willie has had forty-two bat
ties and has won all Of them but four
These he lost through decisions. His

JOHNNY EVERS IS MAKING

Special Prosecutor Breckons viii
Press Criminal Charges Against
Kealoha Instead and, If Sue
cessful, Thus Rid Hawaii OF
Him the Sooner-Expect Ma
guire Settlement Soon.

Prosecutor Breckons returned yester-
day to Honolulu, to be here for 1,ussibly
a couple of weeks. IN the same boat
came Miss Bernicv Dwight, who has
been officiating as the graft commIs.
sion s official stenOgrapher ever since
it went to work. As Ella Long is al.
ready in Honolulu ana as Commissioner
Williamson is In Kau, together with
Expert Field and his assistant, Doctor
Elliot, remains solitary in Hilo sitting
on the i'd.
There was little for Breckons to do
in lIilo after Friday of last week. He
had finished all the work preliminary
to the calling OF the grand jury, which
included the getting out of number
of forms of indictments, which he ex-
poets to see the grand jury return.
They are said to make a very interest
ing little collection.
Brcckons announced in IIilo, just be-
fore he left. that while he was here
lie would endeavor to have the i'm
peachment proceedings STAYED off fur
ther. They were originally continued
until September 90, but Breckons states
that they have been further continued,
by stipulation between the attorneys on
both sides, until September 30.
Breckons states that he will endea-
vor to secure action on the criminal
charges against Kealoha as soon as pos
sible. in order that the necessity for
continuing the Impeachment cases fur.
cher may be obviatcd Once the crimi-
nal proceedings are under way before
the circuit court, the impeachment mat
ter will be dropped Breckons gives for
this the reason that the community
will thus be saved the cost of carry
ing on the impeachment matter. As
this involved rather fine question, no
one being designated by law as the
goat in that respect, the attorneys do
wisely by letting that matter rest.
Attorney Carlsmith will be back in
Hilo in about week, - adds Breckons,
"and that will bring to a head the mat
ter of the negotiations for the recovery
of the money which the county lost
through Mcguire. That will be recov-
cred through an arrangement with the
bank in Hilo. and the trust company in
Honolulu which represented Mcguire s
bondsmen. The bank naturally wanted
right along to wait for the return of
its, attorney, Carlsmith. before it took
any action. expect that the whole
matter will be arranged within two
weeks from now
