pend so much upon his skill and foot
work as he did in his previous battle
here.
In the second round both men
sprang to the center of the ring and
Parrieau landed with left and right
TO Lewis's face. Lewis rushed in
but the Canadian met him with
straight jabs and in the clinches got
the best of the argument. He seemed
to have Lewis practically at his mer-
cy and in this round opened up an
ugly cash over the Denver boys
right ye. His blows not only land
ed like drops of water in an electric
storm but they were of the kind that
tell, and it was very evident h a they
had a serious effect upon his oppon-
ent. Lewis went to his corner at the
end of the round with a worried look
on his face and his seconds worked
heroically on his damaged optic.
During the third, fourth and fifth
rounds Barrieau was clearly laying
off and his air of confidence was un-
mistakable. He invited the Denver
boy to hit him, evidently with the
view of a~scertaining whether he had
anything left. The blows were with
out steam and Barrieau simply
smiled, O and then sending in a
light tap to keep the game open.
In the sixth round the Canadian
started to work again and both men
mixed it several times. Lewis is a
good, game boy and showed we'll
here against his exceptionally clever
opponent. Barrieau again opened up
the cut over Lewis's eye and the
blood streamed down the Denver
boys face.
Through the seventh and eighth
rounds there was but little change,
Barrieau going after his mar and
Lewis putting up as game a fight as
any one would are to witness.
In the ninth round Lewis made
many friends by his gameness and
the manner in which he rushed in
under all circumstances showed him
to be one of the most willing fighters
that ever entered the prize ring.
In the tenth round Barrieau did
his best to put the Denver boy away,
but the time he had lost in the third,
fourth INT fifth rounds was o much
to overcome. He gave one of the
prettiest exhibitions of scientific
fighting ever seen in any ring. He
landed almost at Will, sending
straight lefts. right swings and vi
cious uppercuts to every section O
Lewis above the belt. Lewis wa
much distressed but managed to sta,
the round out.
OF course challenges were in ordel
and both Kid Irish of Salt Lake ant
Eddie Johnson of Ely challenged tn,
winner of the contest. Barrieau will
iremain in the district some time ant
1t seems highly probable that he viii
get a match for Labor Day.
Eddie johnson and Barrieau are
capable of putting up a fight that
should attract every man who has
a drop of sporting blood in his veins
Those who witnessed the last bout
furnished by these boys will always
remember it. Johnson is anxious t.
redeem himself from hat decision
and there are many who believe he
| can do it. BE this as it may, it would
be a fight from gong to gong and one
well worth three times the usual
charge made for admission here.
As a curtain raiser for the Bar
rieau-Lewis bout Harry Beeeher and
Pete Vassiliou furnished an excellent
exhibition. These boys went eight
rounds of two minutes each. Beech
er is one of the cleverest boys that
ever pulled on a glove. He conceded
about twelve pounds to his more
sturdy opponent. but this he easily
offset with his boxing skill.
Vassiliou is known as the Greek
demon and as such he is we'll named.
He knows little or nothing about the
