Atlantic City. June -Oyershadow-
ing the cut over Jack Dempsey's left
eye and the possibilities attending It
when he faces Georges Carpenter at
Jersey City July 2. is the growing
comment on the wonderful improve
ment he has shown with his left hand
in training bouts.
Always a good right-handed hitter,
Dempsey has displayed such marked
accuracy and power in delivering his
portside punch that even old timers
have marveled
Jack Kearns. manager Of the cham
pion, claims credit for the develop
ment Of the left hand. Kearns tied
his protege's right arm 10 his side
and forced him to box and punch the
bag daily with his left.
In the early fighting days Dempsey
used a nice left but always 10 the
head Now he hooks first to the
stomach. throwing all his force behind
1t and even before his opponent has
time 10 step back. ne sends the same
left TO the jaw.
Jacks sparring partners win be
compelled to wear headgears when
boxing is resumed to lessen the danger
Of reopening the wound over the
champions left eye, which was split
open last Sunday when Larry Will
liams butted him trying to evade a
punch. Since then Dempsey has done
no work with the gloves.
Dempsey plans to resume boxing
Saturday provided the wound con-
tlnues to heal rapidly.

HELD THE
TITLE ONLY TWO YEARS
Jefferies, the BoiIermaker, Put
Out "Lanky Bob" in Eleven
Rounds in 1899.

Only n little more than two years
were given 20 Bob Fiizimmons IN
which to enjoy the glamour and the
gold that accompany a heavyweight
championship The honor was knocked
from his sturdy shoulders by James
j. Jerries, on June 9, 1899. at coney
Island.
.Ienries had graduated from a
boiler making establishment Into the
roped square with two rugged fists
that pounded F'itzsimmons into sub
mission in eleven rounds. and which
efabIed the new champion to stick
at the head Of the fstic procession
for many years
Jeffries moved cautiously IN the ring
until his ire was aroused, whercup0n
he created a thunderboIt with one Of
his big fists.
The first Of these titanic wahops
was uncorked BY the Californian ~
the second round. II landed upon
Fifzsimmons' Jaw and Fitz landed on
the floor He was up and doing IN %
Hffy, however. and continued his
wlairlwlnd arfack The Californian
was the bigger man and accepted an
the punishment that the champion
could infiict.
Fitzsimmons became weary from his
fncessant though ineffective efforts
and IN the tenth round Jearies knock
ed him to the floor twice. In the next
round the Californian landed a zip
ping drive over the champions heart
and followed IL through with rights
and 1efts to the jaw These blows
dazed F'itz and JEFF sent him down for
the full count with crushing right
hand blow 10 the chin.

CARPENTER MAY HAVE
TRICKS THAT WILL WIN

Manhasset. y. y, June 9-Folks
hereabout who would like to view
Georges Carpenter going through his
PAGES in secret training but can't,
have expressed the opinion that the
challenger is fooIing the public. They
believe he has more up his sleeve than
he Is willing TO let the world in general
know about. and that his somewhat
listless attitude when boxing for
newspapermen is but a ruse.
While the French champion is not
always Hstless before the critics. he
has thus far refused To effectively
demonstrate just how he is going 10
conduct his offensive campaign when
he enters the ring with Dempsey.
There is no doubt that the debonair
prizefighter is speedy for he occasion
ally seems to forget himself when the
newspapermen are watching him, and
displays few Of the traits that have
made him famous.

Pickford This Week
 Strand Theatre in Reuiual
 Of Little Lord FauntLeroy

Mary Pickford has a big surprise
 prepared in her newest picture, Lit
 tie Lord Fauntleroy," which opens at the Strand theatre Monday for a weeks engagement. The surprise is a combination of three departures from her former production system. One is the length of the picture, 10 reels. Another Is the fact, not that she plays dual role, but that she is in the dual role two distinctly separate persons who are required to play opposite each other throughout the story. And the third is that the extra role which she undertakes Is that of a nature woman in sharp con trast to her other performance as little boy of ten.
 The story of Little Lord Fauntle- roy" Is a fayorite with both the last generation and the present one. This novel child of romance by Frances Hodgson Burnett actually swayed the country in the early nineties, and created costume vogue which either afflicted or delighted the chil- dren of that time, depending upon what their temperaments happened to be. The long curls, the velvet tam, the lace collar, the flowing sash, the knee brooches and the slippers of the young hero were wished by dot ing mothers upon sons who, like the lad in the book, writhed between loyalty to mother and the budding spirit of manhood The moral in- fluence of the story, however, pre- vailed over all resistance for a long

time, owing to admiration felt even by
 the most rebellious for the fine char acter drawn in Little Lord Fauntie-
 roy. Mary Pickford has taken this story and without changing it's plor
 has so humanized the role of the boy that she comes prepared to gTve a laugh for every tear. As the mother, Dearest" she gives a demonstration of what she has often expressed q preference for, her ability to de- iineate an appealing adult character.
 The story of Little Lord FauntIe- roy' is that of an American boy whose father Is the younger son of noble family in England. The heir to the title dies, and the Earl of Dorincourt, head of the family, sends suddenly for his grandson, whose mother he regards as unworthily plebian, and has him come to his castle in England to be reared for his future high station in life. The lad Cedric, is found by Havisham, the solicitor, as neighborhood char acter, wild but loved for his good nature, on poor street In New York For her own part the mother dreads the change in fortune, since the earl Is old, proud and grabbed. How erer, she stiles her misgivings and sets sail with Cedric for England The latter has to leave behind his good friends. Hobbs the grocer. Dick the bootblack and the applewoman. How they figure later in the story, how Dearest has to face sacrifice of her sons love and company, how the synical earl battles against the

TWO HEADL|NERS
 LOEW'S THIS WEEK

l Generally one headliner is enough
 for any vaudeville bill, but Manager
 James decided that just one topping
 act wouldn't do for his bill for the
 first half of the week at Loew's
 Bijou.
 One of the headliners is Nearly a Prince" royalty romantic comedy
 revue with music. Franklyn Byron, musical comedy fayorite, heads the list of capable players in the cast. Nearly a Prince" is featured by
 songs, some exceptionally clever comedy and a number of original canoes.
 Van and Carrie Avery share the headline honors with their latest act. Madam Sirloin, Medium" A scream Is the only way. critics say, 10 describe the side splitting fun of this satirical one-act comedy, Van Avery is known as one of the great est of black face comedians, and ne Is the original Rastus.
 There are going to be come sensa- tienai acrobats on the bill. They are present a striking act of gymnas- tics. water juggling and barrel bal ancing. Johnny Dove is all by him self on the stage, but "The Scotch Yank," as he is known, does not need any help with his original songs. stories and dances that arc extrmeIy entertaining.
 Vivian Martin Is the screen star in "The Song of the Soul" Miss Martin has not ben on the screen for many months. but she is sure to win back her place with such . striking drama as this first feature
