"You must keep your temper, Jim," he I said, "and not be in too big a hurry to put 1 that follow out. Just be cool and careful every minute you arc in front of him. He | is expecting you to go at him like a bull | at a red blanket and you must fool him." I Dolanoy and Brady followed with talk on similar lines, and to all Corbett prom ' isod faithfully to fight carefully and coolly. | Me was warned particularly to look out for | the work at close quarters. The conforenco closed with mutual ex pressions of confidence on the result and a rather solemn handshaking all around. By this time it was well on toward 9 o'clock, and Corbett begun his dressing for the ring. Mis ring costume consisted of his usual white trunks and tight fitting shoes, lie having decided to light without I tights, despite tho cold climate. For his i trip to the arena he added the gray cheeked sack suit in which he had done his train ing, and his blue sweater, white and black checked outing cap and gray mixed hath robe completed his carriage* costume, the robe being thrown around his shoulders. Corbett's Final Speech. "It is too lato to talk now," Corbett said as ho stopped for a moment before j leaving his room. "Tho time lias now i come when Fitzsimmons and 1 can finish our argument without talking. I don't i know bow ho feels about it. but I am very good just now. I am going to win tho light, and lam going to win it fairly. 1 have trained faithfully and have been well . handled by my trainers. My condition is i entirely satisfactory to myself and my ! friends. Fit/slmmons is in good shape, | too, 1 am told, and 1 am glad he is. for I i wish to win this fight strictly on its merits. | 1 don't want to do any boasting now. 1 ; will do my talking after the light." | "Everybody knows whether tho man is I in condition or not," said Charley White, i the head trainer, "and you can judge from that whether I am satisfied with my work When I took hold of Jim, I said I would put him down at the ring side in as good shape as any man ever fought in, and 1 have kept my promise. As to his winning. ; of course I believe ho will win. Fitz.-J.ni mons is a great lighter, but Corbett is u ! greater one, and today he will prove thai ; we havo not overestimated his ability." I "White expresses my sentiments exact i ly," said Billy Delanoy. "We aro proud of | tho condition in which we have put our man, and we expect a few hours hence to i ho proud of tho condition in which lie has put out Fitzsimmons, for .Tim is going to win." Off For Ihe Ar*#ia. The lumbering, three seatedooaoh which for months has done duty in bringing vis itors to the camp bad been drawn up be fore tho hotel veranda, the four horses eager for the start. "All ready!" said White. And Corbett ran nimbly down stairs and took his place on tho hack seat. White, with the collar of his red sweater ( turned up to his ears, followed, and Brady, McVoy, Delaney and .Too Corbett took the I other seats. | It was hut a little later when tho long j bearded native who sat in the box yelled i out to his horses, and tho drive to the arena began. A carriage containing Jef rios Woods and other attaches of the camp 1 had . 1 ready started, ar.d a procession of carriages, certs or . m anted men followed I tho coach on t!.o two mile drive through , ilie little city and out lo tho arena. The Corbett party was rather quiet during the l ido. Jim leaned comfortably hack in the corner of his seat, no trace of excitement I or uneasiness appearing on his face, j Joo Corbett and MoYoy were the liveli est members of the party, but even they | were moro quiet than usual. Corbett was I recognized when the coach entered the town, and bo wad encouraged by shouts from his admirers, and when the arena was reached the crowds about it cheered loudly as the party left the vehicle for tho dressing room. No time was lost in strip i ping the fightor and giving him a vigorous rub down. After a short rest lie again donned his fighting costume, this time , adding tho belt which his wife had made for the occasion. It was of red, white and blue silk, with a green buckle. At one side hung a green silk rosette and streamer. 1 Corbett drew his bathrobe closely around I him and sat down to await the call to the I ring, exhibiting not tho least nervousness. In the Fitzftimmons Camp. ! Fitzsimmons and his trainers were up ; at 7 o'clock, and Boh took a short walk I I ofore breakfast "to start the blood go ing." j Me did no work after eating, remaining 1 in the open air, bareheaded, moving around quietly, talking with Julian and ids assistants and playing gently with Yarrum. Tho conference with his trainers and : helpers did not last long, as all tho needed advice as to fighting Corbett. and meeting j his known or possible methods of attack had been given during the progress of ; Fitzsimmons' work. "I would not take $14,1)00 for tho purse this morning," said Fitzsimmons. "I will havo it all before night. Ido not be | Hove tho fight will bo a long one. Five i rounds is my limit I think I can land in j that tiino, and if I do that will he the end of the gentleman who has no manners and | only pretensions. Me may hit mo as many I times as he can. I believe I can stand all tMo punishment ho is able to give mo and be able to put him out when I get a chance. Come around when it is over, and you ' will see what shape I am In." "Corbett won't ho in it," said Julian. "We don't liko Silor's ruling about the clinches and breakaways, hut we always | get tho worst of it, and wo will havo to stand it this time, as before. Fitz is fit in | every way. Ho could not bo in better con dition. Mo is not as heavy as Corbett, j and his victory will be all the more credit ; able. He will he tho greatest fighter in i Iho world, a wonder, before nightfall, ; and everybody will acknowledge it. His ; muscles are in the shape we want thorn. He is not too finely trained, just right, and ho can stand any umount of pun ishment without distress. Ho con strike a 60 per cent heavier blow than Corbett, and one good punch will put Corbett down and out.. Fitz is a fair, square fighter, one of tho fairest and squarest in the ring, and, though wo got the worst of it by consenting to tricks with which ho is not familiar and has not practiced, we will stand by our agreement to abide by Silor's directions, as we aro confident Fitz will win tins fight, no matter what Corbett may bo able to do in tho clinches or when ho has one arm free." Fitz's Goodby. Tho party began preparing a little after 9 o'clock for tho start for tho arena, being . due there under the order issued by Stuart at 10 sharp. Not much preparation was i noeossary. Fitz put on his cap and was ready. Ho wore over his fighting costume of green tights and colors a suit of light I checked material, a blue sweater and or illnary shoos. His trainers (lid not add to thoir personal adornment, wearing their customary | clothes, a red sweater, a pair of old trousers and shoes to mutch. Before leaving the house Bob kissed the baby and Mrs. Fitzsimmons, and the lat- ! tor said to him, "I'll expect to hear good news from you." i "Vou will," replied Fitz. The little party left the ranch in ample 1 t into to make the journey of three miles' dri ring leisurely. The helpers went ahead i to got things in readiness at the dressing j room. Fitzsimmons and Julian rode in one buggy and Koeher, Stolznerand Mick ey in another close behind and within talk- | ing distance. When Fitz reached his dressing room in the arena, ho was rubbed down and in a short time was.prepared to answer a sum | mons to face his antagonist in the ring. The Arena, i Tho arena in which the great fight was | pulled off is situated about one-third of a mile from tho main street of the town and ! is located in tho center of tho race track. The structure is entirely of undressed lum ber and has no top. The arena is a 12 sid ed affair, each of the sides being a section and each section containing about 1,600 seats. The seats'in each section wore di | vided into three classes. Those nearest the | I ring sold at S4O, tho seats next above them 1 | at ?20 and those at tho top, which were not numbered, were sold at $6. All of ; them were good, although the view from ! ( the cheapest ones was somewhat distant, | I and the line points of the fight could not |he seen from them. The ring was raised , | about four feet ahovo the floor, and at each I corner was an iron post, which was care- 1 | fully bound up in cotton batting to protect the men in Jho event of thoir falling against it. The floor of the ring was cov ered with canvas yesterday, although Cor bett preferred to fight on the bare hoards, | as the canvas, he said, was likely to hinder * the foot movements of tho lighters. | Billy Maddon entered the ring before the ; fighters appeared and said: "I have depos -1 itod $2,500 with Warren Lewis of New j York for Joe Goddard to fight tho winner I of this fight, giving him his own time in side of one year; also have check for $2,- 600 for Sharkey to fight winner, which ■ will bo deposited at once. " In response to -calls, Sharkey climbed into the ring and said: "Gentlemen, 1 have mot both of these men, and 1 would ! like to have first chance. I don't think either of thorn has anything on mo." Tho crowd cheeked, and Sharkey climbed i off the platform. lh Enemies Meet. At 11:59 tho men entered tho ring. ' Both were greeted with loud cheers, though Corbett s'rocoption scorned to ho the heart ier. Fitz looked 20 pounds lighter than his antagonist. Corbett, having won the toss, took tho corner with his hack to the sun. Referee Si lor then explained briefly i to the men his interpretation of tho rules, : and they retired to thoir corners. At this time it was estimated that there were GEORGE SILKR. nearly 5,000 people within tho inclosure. | Corbett and Fitz eyed each other some what nervously while awaiting the call of I time. In Fitzsimmons' corner were Martin Ju lian, Ernest Roeber, Steltznor and Mickey. Behind Corbett are Charley White, l)e --i lanoy and Jeffries, McVoy, Joo Cor bo it, Billy Woods and A1 Hampton. , Round 1 opened with sparring for an opening.

Probably there is no disease that in flicts so much continuous pain as rheu matism. When* it becomes chronic there are few so hard to euro. This disease is caused by an impure state of blood. The impurity consists of uu excess of letlilc acid, and to drive this acid from the blood is the object of all rational treatment. The medical faculty have found iu Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy, a certain and positive cure for this ter rible complaint. Mrs. M. Hill, of Galeton. Pa., stiys: "One year ago I was taken with muscular rhematism. My limbs wore so painfull I could scarcely walk- I determined to try DH.
