 New York, June Joe Choynski, ~the California Chrusanthemum,' who weighed much less than Georges Carpentier, but made great fights against Goddard, Corbett, Johnson, Mccoy, Fitzsimmons and others, has this to say in regard to the big fuss which is to come off at Jersey City.
 'Tt's a very hard fight in. which to pick a probable winner, the fighting styles of the principals being such as to make it practically an even thing-that is, a match in which each man has an equal chance to win Either can win with one punch if he lands properly, so that the whole thing resolves itself into the single question as to which will be the first to reach a, vulnerable point with blow of knockout force.
 Dempsey and Carpenter are very much alike in their styles. They fight along similar lines. In spite of much that might be or may be said or written to the contrary I hold that both men are purely and simply Swingers. Neither knows what a straight punch means and the only way in which either of them can fight is to keep rushing in and swinging away at his opponent. It is not possible for either to hold back

Jack Demands
 Canned Music

Jack Dempsey'S one consuming g weakness, if it may be called that, is "canned" music. He takes it with his meals and during his rest periods and to it's soothing strains he falls asleep at night in his training quar- ters at Atlantic City.
 Otherwise meek, retiring and easy to please, the worlds heavyweight champion is running his secretary and most of his entourage ragged, ' keeping up the supply of records for the talking machine
 Jacks most favored music machine is of rosewood, inlaid with mother of pearl and with all the latest music catering attachments, and the cham pion declares that the phonograph is giving him more pleasure than any other one item of his training outfit.

 vorite one-two to Jeannette's head and
 down went Joe with surprise written all over him. After that Joe used his cunning and science to good eff feet and though Carpenter rocked him hard in the 8th and 9th rounds he could not muster strength enough to defeat his man. While Jeanette S wonderful stamina kept him going the judges gave Joe the decision at the end of IS rounds and Carpenter was a badly disappointed young man. But he had learned one of the great est lessons of his career and after wards the things he learned from Joe made him better fighter.
