ANTI-BoXING cRrsADEs.

Ever since the pugilistic game orig
mated in England nearly two centu-
ries ago, there have been crusades
against the brutal" sport. Much Of
the criticism in the very early days
was merited, yet the moralists forget
that when boxing was introduced il
supplanted the duel and the far from
tender sport Of sudgellins. Boxers
themselves cannot escape a large
share of the blame for the disrepute
into which the sport has often fallen
II was so in the very beginning Of the
game, when the sporting public, as
well as the opponents OF the game,
were disguised with the brutality Of
a battle between George Taylor and
Brince Boswell, a gypsy, who kicked
each other and otherwise behaved
brutally. It was Jack Broughton who
saved the game in the early days by
formulating the first code Of pugilistic
rules. which eliminated many Of the
most Objectionable features After
the period Of Broughton and his con-
queror. Jack Slack, the pugilists OF
the period from 1850 to 1880 almost
succeeded in giving the game a
knockout. The period was character
lied by fake fights. fouls and brutal
behavior, and the title was almost
openly bought and sold.
Tom johnson, Dan Mendoza and
other great boxers then came to the
front and boxing entered upon its
most glorious era. when It had the
patronage Of kings, princes, nobility,
and the aristocracy of letters and
learning. Queen Victoria. early in her
reign. showed opposition to pugilism
and the game was again on its last
legs in England when the Marquis OF
QueensbeFry formulated his code Of
rules which now govern fistic con-
tests. Nevertheless for many years
during the Victorian era boxing was
not only prohibited, but the railroads
were required by law not to carry
passengers bound for the scene Of a
prospective prize fight.
