JACK DEMPSEY WINS TITLE
FROM CHAMPION WILLARD

Last Friday, at Toledo, Ohio, Jack
Dempsey became the Champion heav-
vy-weight pugilist Of the world by de-
feating Jess Willard in three rounds
of bout that was scheduled to go
twelve.
Willard, who outweighed his an
tagonist by forty pounds was favor
{, lite in the betting, although the wise
ring followers touted Dempsey. 1t
is estimated that 10000 people saw
the fight and that the receipts were
in the neighborhood Of $5OO,OOO. The
cost of putting on the bout was $4OO,-
600.
Willard received 100000 and Jack
Dempsey although the winner only
got $4,000. This was due to the fact
that W Hard, being the champion and
Dempsey not having attained much
reputat on in the heavyweight cham
pionship class the latter had to con-
tent himself with any arrangements
he could make.
The battle lasted nine minutes. Many
fight fans who had travelled thousands
of miles and paid as high as $50 to see
this exhibition must have realized
that they got mighty little for their
time ard money. However, the cost
Of prize fights has not advanced out
of proportion to necessities, to say
nothing Of luxiries.
Willard WIS clearly outclassed as a
fighter from the first clang of the
gong. Dempsey sailed in and ham,
mered the big fellow all over the face
and body as soon as they got the sig
nal to go. For about thirty seconds
Willard looked as if he was going to
be in the game but that was all. When
Jack felt him out and saw how ea'
it was to land he planted haymaker
on the champions eye that settled
the whole business, although Willard
stood UP and stopped Dempsey's wal
lops for two more rounds before he
knew he was licked
When the gong sountlcd for the
fourth round to begin Willard had
come to realize that he had ended his
career as a fighter. He had enough
He was able to get up, but he had his
100000 earned, he got his win or
lose, so he sat still and his seconds
threw up the sponge.
Dempsey didn't have a mark on
him. Willard had black eye, a swol-
len cheek and black and blue marks
all over his body.
Wizards wife saw the fight and ex-
pressed herself as perfectly satisfied
her big husband had lost the cham
pinship. They are now proceeding
on their way to Kansas where they
have a hundred acres and FIVE chill
dren.
Dempsey being champion, will re-
main in the ring and defend the title
He is "a years of age. Willard is 81

REPUBLICAN, ECONOMY

Hon. Asbury +. Lever in congress
the other day punctured the sham
claim Of economy that the Rcpub.
leans are making. Replying to Con-
grcssmar noorc, Of Pennsylvania, he
sid, as reported in the Congressional
Record:
Take the Agricultural bill, for in
stance, increased by the Republicans,
when it was reported to the House, by
nearly a million dollars, and it went
to Republican Senate and was there
increased over $4,OOO,OOO. (Laugh-
ter and applause on the Democratic
side.) Republican economy!
