M.AJORITY OF BOXERS ARE VIRTUAL
LY OUT OF IT BEFORE TURNING
THIRTIETH MILESTONS.
*In former years a pugilist was not con
sidered in his prime until after he had
passed 30o," said a veteran follower of the
prize ring recently. "A fighter who is
still at the top of his class after his 28th
year is considered a wonder. Of course
there are exceptions, as in the case of
Bob Fitasimmons. He is certainly a well
preserved man, and it will be many
moons before we find another like him.
Pitz is nearly 42, but he can fight as well
as he did to years ago. Then there are
(Tommy Ryan, Joe Choynski and Joe Wal
cott. Choynski was never a champion,
but he is a great pugilist, for all that.
"Take the old-timers, such as Barney
Aaron, Jem Mace, Doony Harris and
others. They did their best fighting after
they were 30. Then there was Joe God
dard, Frank Slavin, the later Peter Jack
son, Billy Edwards and Pete McCoy.
John L. Sullivan was all in, so to speak,
before he was 34. Kid McCoy is under
3o and has been forced to retire because,
according to his own admission, he can
not fight any more. George Dixon lost
the featherweight title to Terry McGov
rn when he was in his 3oth year. Mc
Govern, in turn, was defeated by Young
Corbett before he was as. Pedlar Palmer
won the bantam championship of the world
from Bill Plimmer when he was so, and
gave way to McGovern four years later.
Although Palmer is a38, he has been re
garded as a las-been for some time. Billy
Plimmer was compelled to quit the ring
before he was 30.
Kid Lavigne, one of the best light
weights the arena has produced in the
last decade, was all in before he was ao.
Frank Erne, who succeeded him at the
top of his class, went down before Joe
Gans, the present lightweight champion,
in his a7th year, and now he has retired.
Jim Corbett was knocked out by Bob Fitz
simmons and lost the heavyweight cham
pionship when he was 3s. Tomni Sharkey,
although only in his 3oth year, has been
out of it ever since his last fight with Jim
JeTffries in 1899. Sharkey always paid the
strictest attention to his health, too. Star
light, the veteran Australian middleweight,
who has been the trial horse for a num
ber of the foremost Australian heavy
weights, past and present, is still fighting.
Starlight is nearly So, but the youngsters
have all they can do to beat him in de
cisive fashion.
"Harry Forbes, who is only a young
ster, having been born in 1879, lost the
bantam title to Frankie Neil a few months
ago. Forbes has been fighting ever since
1897. Jack McAuliffe was not more than
31 when he retired. Gus Ruhlin, who was
born in 1872, is still in the ring, but he
has never shown much form since he was
put to sleep by Bob Fitzsinmmons three
years ago. Peter Maher has been out of
it for years, although he is still a young
man. He was born in 1869. The Sullivan
brothers, Spike and. Dave, have bleen re
ceding in form for years, yet neither of
them is over 30. Kid McPartland of New
York, who was expected to fill Kid. La
vigne's shoes some day, has retired from
the ring. McPartland was born in 1875,
but he was forced to quit the ring a year
ago, when he was knocked out by Joe
Gans.
"The method of modern pugilists in
training and looking after their health is
different from that which the old-timer
used to undergo. Present day scrappers
make twice as much money as some of
the champions did in the past, and they
live only for today."

RHEUMAT ISM
AN INDE8SRIBABLE TORTURE
Because Rheumatism sometimes comes on suddenly it doesn't
prove that it is a chance disease or one due to accidental causes. It
takes time for it to develop, and is at work in the system long before
any symptoms are felt. The blood, is the first point of attack, and
the poisonous acids that cause the aches and pains are then distrib
uted through the circulation to different parts of the system, and
settle in joints, muscles and nerves; and when the system is in this
condition it needs only some exciting cause like exposure to night air,
damp, chilly weather, or the cold, bleak winds of winter, to arouse
the slumbering poisons and bring on Rheumatism. The severity
of the attack depends upon the amount of acid in the blood and the
quantity of acrid matter in the
joints and muscles. Some peo. RHEUMATISM IN ELBOWS, WRIBTS

does, cannot be cured with ex

pains or drive them to some other part of the body, but do not touch
the disease or improve the condition of the blood. The thin acid

purity and strength, so that all poi

TWO CLEVER BOXERS ARE TO OPEN
A ACHOOL FOR THE SCIENCE
IN THE METROPOLIS.
Buffalo, N. Y., Nov. t !.-What will un
doubtedly be the largest and hest equipped
of modern gymnasiums and physical cul
ture schools in this country will be opened
in the immediate vicinity of Broadway and
lorty-secondl street. in the very heart of
New York city, some time before January.
It is to be conducted under the personal
direction of two of the greatest and must
scientific boxers the prize ring ever saw-
Frank Erne, the lightweight champion of
the world, and that famous of light heavy
weights, Kid McCoy. These two noted
celebrities of Fistiana will have as their
pupils some of the most prominent mil
lionaires of New York and many Wall
street brokers.
Negotiations for the opening of this
physical culture school have been under
way for the past three weeks. It is said
that two prominent sporting men of New
York, who have been connected with box
ing for years, will back the venture. Ex
Champion Erne and Kid McCoy will be
the two instructors, assisted by other men
of prominence in the line of developing
muscle.
It is the intention of the promoters of
this school to conduct it on an expenslive
scale. None but the wealthy will he
sought as members, and the fees to be
charged will bar the comtmnon clas.. The
school will be located on Broadlway, if
present plans carry, and will be on a
Brodawy scale. It is said that hath
Erne and McCoy will teach mboxing les
sons and that special experts for other
gymnastics have been engaged.
Erne, who is at present at his home in
this city, was visited by Kid McCoy sev
eral days ago. McCoy was on his way
back to New York after visiting his pa
rents in Indiana. Erne and Mct('y spent
a day at Erne's home at I.ewist,n. Final
arrangements between the two were com
pletedI before Mct'oy sttarted for G;othamn.
Erne will depart for New fork shortly
after "Thanksgiving da;y and will prsonl
ally direct the fitting up of the gym
nasitln.

ing at the end of the season is used to main
tain otlier biranches of competitive sport which
are not self-supporting. But it is a system all
wrong, accepted because custom has made it
seem a matter of course. It is wrong because,
the prices charged for tickets are extravagantly
and absurdly high, and are fixed not by the
student sentiment, but by the demands of pay
for its annmusements. But hundreds of stutdents
cannot afford to see their own university team
play its important games, even on the home
field. It is true that many thousands of grail.
untes and others would pay even $5 a seat to
see these great contests, but that is no reason
why the undergraduale should he conlpelltel
to "stand and celiver"t for the privilege of
seeing his fellow-students engage in a branch
of lport which is supposed to be organized and
naintained for their benefit.
When it comes to making the players and
chaches pay the exorbitant prices for their
ticket, the fiscal system suggests too much
the operation of a "get-rich-quick" syndicate.
If college sports cannot be carried on without
such heaping treasuries for their expenses, itf'
is timne to overhaul the systems and see where
reductions can be made. If the admission fee
to a reserved seat for undergraduates were
made st, and the rate for the rest of the pat.

beginning would be made in the right direc,

VERDICT FOR TOBACCO FIRM
They May Sell or Refuse to Sell, Just
as They See Fit.
St. Paul, Nov. 13.-The United States
court of appeals yesterday decided that
the Continental Tobacco company did not
violate the interstate commerce law or the
anti-trust law when it refused to sell to
Joseph P. Whitwell, a St. Paul tobacco
dealer, its manutfactured product.
The court says: "The tobacco company
and its competitors were not dealers in
articles of prime necessity, as corn or
veal, nor were they rendering public or
quasi-public service, like a railroad com
pany. Each of them, therefore, has the
right to refuse to sell its conmtodities at
any price."

In the very first round of that fight

'Ihere was iltz lying across the top

dead as Julius C:.aesar.
'To give an idea of how far Fitz was
gone, it may Ibe stated that Joe Choynski
cut the beIll cord half a minute before the
round was up, and this rest, with the
minute between, was not sufflicienlt to
hritg the great Australian fighter around.
As Iitz gut lip for tilte second routld he
