THE M
A Pugilistic Joke
Tho Joko of Inst evening, In puglllstlo
circles, was tho announcement from a
supposedly rellablo source that Kid Wil
liams had won ovor Johnny Kilbane.
Williams put up a good fight, but he was
outclassed. Kllbane'a cleverness nnd
nrm reach were two reasons why the
Baltimorean nover had a chance.
Trobably there were other Jokes of ths eve
ning;. Home of them, ot a tlnsnclal nature,
might take on a serious uspect upon closer an
bIvhIs. Hut old rivalry must have Its Itttle
Jokes, no matter what the cost.

Charley AVTilte, of Chicago, In 2 minutes
and 45 seconds of tho first round before
a capacity houso at the National A, C,
last night. Tho end wua so sudden tho
crowd stood up In amazement. "White's
clcau-cut. victory boosts 'nls fighting stock
to tho leading contender for Freddy
Welsh's championship.
Tlireo times White dropped Itobldcau for the
count. Until he landed a left hook to Hob

seemed to be stalling. Whon Sam gained his

Taylor flnlihed tolling oft "10." Jack Me
Uulgan, Itobldeuu'a muuager, leaped Into ths
ring and carried Sam tn his corner.
The result ot the battlo came as the biggest
surprlso tn local tlstlo annuls for many years
and probably waa received unexpectedly
throughout tho country. Kobldeau was boosted
aa the next lightweight champion, following his
wonderful exhlbtllon recently.
Another surprise was hnnded the spectators
when Young Ahcnrn. of Now York, clearly out
pointed mid outfought Jimmy Clabby, of Ham
mond, Ind., In the xenilnnal. The former dls
playod more clevcrnonn, better ring teneiai
ship and landed more punches.
Manager McC.ulgan announced from the ring
side that l?ddle Morgan waa unable to box
(lenrgo Chaney, ot Ilaltlmore, because the Knt
llsh champion was In no condition on account
nt bolng III. It was rumored earlier in the
week morgan was sick, nut upon inquiries
Mctlulguii said Kddlo would positively meet
Chaney.
Jimmy Fox, nf San PrancUco, substituted,
and his seconds loused n towel Into tho ring
tn the fourth round. Cheney's body punches
greatly weakened the coast boy. Ilor three
rounds Fox did npleudiuty.
In the second number. Tommy Howell de
feated Joe llorrell for tho Italian championship
of Pennsylvania, Uith lighten! tried hard for
a knockout. Although each scored soma ter
rlflo kmsshes to the other's head, they proved
gluttons for punishment and were on their
feet at the conclusion ot hostilities.
Tho first hout proved tho most Interesting
number on the program, when Jack McCarron
shnded Soldier Uartrtcld In one ot tha hardest
fought battles seen here for many moons. They
slugged from bell to bell, first ono and then
the other taking the lead. However, McCarron'a
aggrevalvrnesa and mare telling punches earned
him the decision by a slight shade.
