He is clad in a grey bathrobe and wears his usual golden smile. The negro'’s first move was to ascer- tain where his wife was located. At 1:20 p. m. Willard entered the ring amid prolonged yelling and cheering. The crowd went wild the young giant, screaming and hand-clapping as over trousers and a black sombrero. Opinion is general that Wil- lard’s youth will defeat Johnson ten rounds. Willard weighs 245 pounds, John- son 228. Johnson is favorite at 7 to 5. In the challenger’s corner were the following seconds: Tom Jones, Willard’s manager, Tex O'Rourke, Walter Monoghan and Jim Savage. Johnson was sec- onded by Tom Flanagan, George Munro, Sam MeVey, Dave Mills, Bob Armstrong and Colin Bell. The two pugilists shook hands for the movies. The ring grad- ually cleared of all except Ref- eree Jack Welsh, seconds and’ principals. Johnson objected toa woman spectator in the press ring and she retired to an adjacent box. The negro, stripping his bathrobe, showed himself clad in bright blue trunks and no beit. Fight by Rounds.

The champion landed frequently but his blows appeared to lack their old power, Amidst feinting could not then be a candidate against the ex-Mayor. A great deal of comment has been created by this about town, everybody expressing the greatest disapproval of this underhand method. It is even contended that those concerned may be guilty of conspiracy. Contrary to what those who managed the affair expect, how- ever, it is now known that Alder- man MecClymont may still be a eandidate for Mayor. The result of it is, however, that another election for alderman will be nec- essary to fill the place vacated by Alderman McClymont. The city is thus put to the extra expense be- cause aldermen refused to do their duty and stayed away from the meeting at the request of low- minded politicians. Situation wanted by young man. Experienced salesman and busi- ness education. High class refer- ences.

A left by Willard started the negro’s mouth bleeding and the latter slugged the white man to the ropes. : Round 10,.—-Johnson was slow eOming from his corner. Willard scored two lefts to the face.
