that cost him the title and the major share of the purse Up to the four teenth round the Belfast boy had u safe lead and Billy had found some hard sledding in his earnest efforts to cop the title. In the fourteenth chapter Ike was seized with an i'm pulse to show off anl make a grand stand play. He was born acrobat and he decided that a back flip would be the proper caper to show his con- tempt for his opponent. To think was to act with Ike, and the crowd cheered when the Spider pulled his stunt
 Among other accomplish Bis- ly packed a right-hand punch which he affectionately called Mary Ann,"
 and which was popularly called the
 torpedo punch,' Just as Ike landed | on his feet afteI doing tEe back flop l Billy unlimbered his artillery, and the
 torpedo punch connected fair and
 square with Ike's jaw. Whereupon | Weir was afflicted with an irresistible
 desire to take a snooze, and before he , had ended his nap the referee had counted off ten and had handed tho gorgeous belt to tho Australian. Murphy was born in New Zealand
 
 Irish descent, but most of his neigh 1 borS and associates were from Lon l don and vicinity, and Billy carly ac- qulred a CoCkney line of conversation which was inexpressibly funny. Billy always had the idea tha' he was a born orator, and whenever he met a gang of sports there were always cries of Speech. Speech" Billy was always willing to oblige, and his addresses, delivered in a cockney dia- lect in which there were faint traces of an Irish brogue, always caused a riot.
 Billy made a great reputation as d 1 fighter in New Zealand and later in 1 Australia, and tEc sports in the Cali | fornia A. C.. sent tim an invitation to 1 come to America. This listened good | to Billy, and he worked his way over I; on steamship which reached San Francisco in Juno of 1889. The sail ors filled Billy so full of wild yarns about the Pacific pirates that he toted a gun all the way over and slept with
 the weapon by his side. Shortly after
 his arrival Billy knocked out Johnny
 Griffin. of Braintree, Mass, and a few months later became feather weight champion by whipping Weir. He did not long retain his honors, and late in 1890 he returned to
 Australia and was defeated by Young Griffo Billy continued fight Ing until 1906, when he retired. Ike Weir was a bright lad, and i'm mensely fond of practical jokes. He would often stop in the middle of a street and dance Irish iigs and reels until the reserves had to be called out to scatter the mob of spectators. Af- ter he quit the ring Ike became
