CHAPTER XIV

Milling weakly at times, the men
were beginning to show the terrific
strain. kilrain dropped helplessly
whenever the chance came, and it was
not until the sixty-eighth round that
Sullivan was able to land a blow that
began to turn the tide toward a GER
tain defeat of his challenger. Kilrain
was falling to the ground to end a
round when the champion delivered a
right upper-cut with all his strength.
1t caught Kilrain under the chin, lifted
him from his half-reclining posture,
and spraWled him in a heap against
the ropes. He was in very bad shape
when his seconds lifted him and car
ried him to his corner.
From then on, Kilrain fought as if
in a daze. Although he never ad.
| mitted it, it is more than probable
/ that Kilrain was, even then, out, but
fighting on mechanically with a fight
er's spirit He slipped yainly and
skidded around the ring as Sullivan
vainly tried to put over a blow that
would finish the fight.
In the sevcnty-fifth round Kilrain
caught very light tap to the neck
but he reeled and went down under it.
He had to be assisted to his feet and
to his corner Once seated there
Charley Mitchell left him and walked
to the Sullivan corner, where he again
proposed that the bout be called a
draw. Sullivan loked at him contemp
tuously and growled:
Let him stand up and fight like a
man. Well call it no draw till it's
over"
Mitchell carried the news back tc
the Kilrain corner and Mike Donovan
another of the Kilrain supporters
picked up a sponge from the water
bucket, walked to the center of the
ring and threw it into the air, The
fight was over. Sullivan had gained
the victory by a knockout, but it was
over one of the most courageous mel
he ever had met Kilrain protested
vainly and wept when Donovan car

CHAMPION

ried the sponge to the center of the
ring, and afterward he told friends mis-
heart had been broken.
The fight was the last ever held in
this country with bare knuckles, under
London prize ring rules. 1t left John L.
Sullivan the champion under this code,
an honor which never has been
wrested from him. When he again
fought-this time to meet James j.
Corbett it was with gloves.
The bout dispelled any belief held
by sports followers that John l.. Sui
livan was through. The hero had re-
turned and he was just much of a
hero as ever.
Both men had lot of trouble before
they finally settled their differences
with the law over the Richburg fight.
Sullivan was hauled from a train in
Tennessee as he was passing through
on his WAY back east and hailed be-
fore a court. He stated afterward
that it cost him more than $4,000 to
get outIOf his difficulties.

OUR AVIATORS IN ITALY
DESIGNATED AS COWBOYS

ROME, Feb. 20 (by maiD Flying
Cowboys" is the popular title given
here to Uncle Sans first fighting
corps in Italy. The American aviator
officers and students located at a
training camp in southern Italy are
frequently visitors in Rome and as
they all wear the United States army's
service hat, popularity known here as
the cowboy" hat, the word cowboy
has been applied to them.
That these ayiators are regarded as
cowboys was illustrated by an incident
with a cab driver that occurred when a
party of them were on leave in Rome
and went outside the city walls to see
the Catacombs of ST. Calixtus on the
Appian Way. When the ayiators got
out of the cab near the entrance to
the burial place of the early Christ
ians, they asked the cab driver to wait,
so he could drive them back to the
city.
But my horse can't stand the trip
back with such a heavy load" he ex-
planned ITS war time and we haven't
corn or wheat to feed him, so he's too
weak I've got a family to support
and l must take good care of this
horse. You cowboys ought to under,
stand how it is"
VERY well, Well buy your horse
won't we fellows" spoke up one OF
the aviators who had just been paid
off. "If he's still alive when we get
back to town we will sell him back to
you"
While the proposition was made in
all seriousness the driver, thinking ne
was about to be made the victim OF
some wild west trick, abruptly refused
and drove off with his plug, leaving
the cowboys" to walk back.

NOVEL MEANS ADOPTED ID
 RAISE FUNDS FOR STAMPS $

FL PASO, Texas, May 3.-Highland Park schoolboys have many ways of making money with which to buy war stamps and "help to whip the kaiser" as their badges read. One boy washes dishes for his stamp money. Another picks up tin cans on the vacant lots of this suburb and sells them to the junk, dealer, who recovers the solder from them. Another enterprising boy greased and polished neighbors' auto mobiles. Another real boy got his first stamp money for taking dose of castor oil Other boys carried newspaper routes, polished sisters shoes, pressed big brothers clothes, and yet another walked three miles to school each day, saving his car fare for war stamps.

IN GREAT ALARM
OVER WAR ASPECT

WASHINGTON. Sept. 14.-The
American offensive at their very door
and stories Of long range gun about
to be turned loose on their towns is
giving the war a new aspect to the
Germans. An official statemnt from
France today says there are evidences
of excitement everywhere across the
German border and quotes the follow
ing from the Mulhausen Tageblatt:
"The American offensive in upper
Alsace and the long range gun sup
posed to be intended to reduce to ash
es the towns of this country is madly
alarming the inhabitants. Even peo-
pie Of high rank tremble at the news
like little children listening to ghost
stories. OF course the evacuation of
the Mulhausen and the whole Of AL
SAGE is again in question and it is said
that all measures for the actual evacu-
alton Of the German duchy from Baden
to Freiburg has already been taken"
The German papers remind the pub
lie that severe punishment may be in
Cured on those who spread such ru-
mors and say there is not the slightest
reason for enxiety, but at the same
time. however, the papers continue to
publish the rport.
