. jabbing for two or three hours 1t
was not that long, however, for Cans
was as wise a trainer as he was a
boxer, and he did not require his
charge to overtax his strength.
With Cans as his tutor, Larkins
had become in less than two months,
we'll trained little boxer who should
have been able to hold his own with
any youngster of his age and weight.
To this end, Cans had labored to
make the boy worthy; so when he
thought that the lad was able, he
gave him trial against one of the
heaviest boys at the "Y."
The crafty master knowing that
one lacking in experience is some
times undone before contest, by
nerves, did not tell Johnnie that he
was to box on a certain afternoon.
Instead, he had the lad working
when his opponent came in. Nor
did the other boy, Nathan Carroll,
know that he had been selected as
Johnnie's trial horse.
Young Carroll came in as was his
custom, watched Johnnie a while and
began to work with the striking bag
Cans, in the meantime, had told the
secretary to ask Nathan to box a
while with Larkins; and it was done.
The two lads met with that enthuSi-
asm known alone to ambition. Cans
refereed and the secretary kept time.
How long are you going to let
them boX?" asked the timekeeper.
We'll try them out in two min
utes to the round with one for rest.
When 1 see either of them getting
tired, I'll call it off," was Gans's
reply.
So started the first bout in which
Johnnie was to be a principal.
In the first round, it was a good
fight with neither of the boys caring
mite for defensive tactics. Their
chief aim, it seemed, was to knock
the other completely off the face of
the earth In one blow Consequent
ly, when the two minutes were up,
both were tired and blowing like
engines.
Cans took his boy into a short con-
ference:
you've got to take your time and

But, Mrs Larkins, you must have
some idea where he is? amt seen
him for the last four or five days. !"
Old Bill was curious.
"All can say is what he told me
that he was going to learn to become
a prize fighter. I did not believe him.
But now guess he was telling the
truth" replied Mrs. Larkins.
Eyes, he was telling me something
about learning to fight and didn't
believe him either. Well. tell him
1 was here, and ask him how he is
making out" were Bills parting
words.
During those days when Bill
thought Johnnie was playing truant,
the subject Of his thoughts was in
the gymnasium taking instructions
from the eX-champion.
Hold your hands up like this!"
Cans instructed and gave demon
stration of what he meant.
That's it! Now, shoot the lett
out quick! Don't push! Jab! You've
got to get it out faster than that if
you ever expect to hit anybody with
it. Now, try again. That's better!
Now, imagine there is somebody you
don't like and he is fighting you.
Keep it up! Hit You've got two
hands; use both of them! Cut out
that swinging! Look here, don't
draw back like that to hit anybody.
Why, that other fellow could get in
there and knock your block off. I'm
derstand?"
There was Johnnie stripped to the
waist, wearing one-pound gloves and
trying to do his worst to an imagi-
nary opponent as Cans talked and
illustrated. After the first five min
utes, the boy was blowing hard; a
while later, and he could hardly hold
his gloved hands up-the gloves had
increased their weight four or five
times, and now after twelve minutes
weighed exactly, according to John
MES estimate, fifty pounds each.
If the boy were allowed to tell the
story, ne would tell anyone that he
had been shifting and swinging and
