Briant Beats johnson.
~NE of Johnson's greatest victories
I was over a formidable fighter
named Stephen Oliver, but who
was known in the ring only as
Death" because his face became white
as a ghost when he was in the ring.
Johnson's supremacy was challenged
by the giant, Perrins, who offered to
fight anybody in England for 500
guineas. The challenge was promptly
accepted.
I'VE may safely declare" says the
Sporting Magazines writer, that
never was so great disparity between
two pugilists matched against each
other, and yet the smaller was a
large man. johnson danced around
Perrins. 1t was four minutes before
a blow was struck. The fight contin-
ued an hour and IA minutes and 5000
pounds changed hands. Johnson
with a sudden blow, split Perrins
nose and blacked his left eye. The
odds turned 10 to ! on Johnson"
The fight ended in the tenth round,
when "Perrins gave in from dread
full blow in the center Of the face"
After 16 victories johnson finally
was beaten by Big Ben Briant.

* at Figg's arena a curious pre-
cursor of the -Carnera
battle between an Englishman
named Whitaker and an italian
giant known as the Venetian Con
dolier."
The "Gondolier" was known as a
breaker of jaw-bones. His backer
was a "nobleman of advanced stand
ing" Figg supported the Englishman.
II do not know, master" Figg told
the noble lord, "if he may not break
one of his own countrymen's jaw
bones with his fists, but l shall bring
him a man he will not break his
jawbone with sledge hammer
The fight was before the politest
company that ever was seen on such
an occasion. While the Gondolier
was stripping, several English gentle
men remarked particularly the tre-
mendous figure of the man. His arm
took up all observation. 1t was
surprisingly large, long and muscular.
He advanced, pitching himself for
ward with his right leg and his arm
full extended and, as Whitaker ap-
preached, gave him such a blow upon
the side of the head that knocked
him off the stage over the railing,
which was remarkable for its height.

Capital Golf Clubs Skeptical
Regarding 1884 Tournaments

TT MERELY is the cooperative plan
as applied to the running Of golf
tournaments, and before long, II
such scheme we're started, most OF
the clubs would be doing it. During
the war several invitation tournaments
were held by Washington golf clubs
with entry fees charged which went tc
the Red Cross. Why not some similar
scheme, with a very much curtaileo
prize fund and with all money above
actual expenses to go to charity or tc
unemployment relief in 1884? 1t seems
to make sense but whether 1t will be
adopted or not is problematical.
After all, there is no need for elabo-
rate prizes, costing up to $500 for six
flights. Modest prizes whose total cost
would not exceed 5000 would serve the
same purpose as the more costly lay
outs of cleaning ware which have gone
to winners in past years. A winner Of
an amateur event is not concerned with
the intrinsic value of his prize The
sentimental worth of the trophy is val
over the jewelers. counter.
Some method of making invitation
tournaments self-supporting might be
worked out during the Winter prior tt
the annual meeting of the District Coll
Association which is held early ir
March. Certainly the plan is worth
consideration.
