Sullivan, he added to hia laurels by severely beating Charles F. Mitchell, who came over from England to challenge the conqueror of perless John L.

The fight took place at Jacksonville, January 25. 1894, and ended in the third round. There was much enmity between the battlers, Corbett refusing to shake hands with his opponent before the fight began. His attack upon the Englishman was a merciless one, and in the third round he broke Mitchell's nose with a half swinging blow. His nose already lop sided, Mitchell came away from the ropes only to receive another crashing fist in the same spot.

The blood gushed freely, and on the next blow, Mitchell dropped to the mat. He rose gamely, but as he tottered from the ropes, Corbett pounced upon him, once more crashing his swift right against the Englishman's broken nose. Sending Mitchell down for a knockout. Both of the fighters were arrested as soon as they left the ring, the state charging them with having met by previous arrangement and engaged in a fight. "BILLY" ROCHE PICKS GEORGES Has Punch That Will Mean Something If He Lands Good Blow New York, June 7.

Billy Roche picks Carpentier to win over Dempsey with a K. O. July 2. Billy, you'll remember, had a string of fighters in the days when McGovern, Lavinge and Dixon were mitt kings. He knows fighters backward.

"I've seen Carpentier box only a few times," he said, "but I have to string with him. He boxed for me twice on the other side in shows I ran for the soldiers, and then later I saw him whip Levinsky. He's big enough to whip any man' alive. He's a fighter. There isn't anything he needs.

He doesn't have to weigh a ton to become heavyweight champion. "A man around 175 pounds is big enough. This Frenchman will be there, or thereabouts, when he faces Dempsey. He's about as pretty a boxer as I ever saw for a big man. He can hit, too.

Look over his rec ord and you 11 convince yourself. Any time they knock a man cold with one sock, there's something behind it. He stung Levinsky the first time he hit him and there wasn't much fight left in the Battler after that. He made Bomb Wells kiss the canvas twice, and twice listen to the count of ten. One bust was enough for Beckett.

He didn't come to for five minutes. In Prime of Life "Carpentier'e in the prime of life right now and he is getting the chance he always dreamed of. He's wanted to be champion ever since he was a kid. You'll see him fight like a young tiger July 2. I don't mean to say that Dempsey is a mug, but he isn't the man he was.

He was great at Toledo, but that was two years ago, and hanging around moving picture stuilios didn't do him any good. The best proof of this was his right against Brennan, an or dinary fighter. If Brennan found it easy to hit Dempsey why can't Car penter, who is twice as good as Brennan? And don't forget that Carpentier will put everything he has behind every punch he lets loose He always does. I'm betting that Georges' speed and punch will dazzle Dempsey. That's why I'm stringing with the short enders.

It's going to be the greatest punching fight that heavyweights ever fousht. and I wouldn't be surprised to see it over arter six or seven rounds."

C. show last night. Mike Paulson, the Dane, sent Nate Isaacman, known as Joe McCabe, in ring circles, to dreamland in the ninth round of a schedule ten round battle.

Ivory Eshelman put Hen ner Cobb out in the third round. The defeat that came to McCabe may mean the end of his ring career. He was in the hospital this morning, and may have a fractured jaw.

Last night he defended his title in a twelve round, no decision battle with Rocky Kansas, of Buf falo. During the bout there were few hard or telling blows struck and Leonard had nearly all of these to his credit. It was rather a clever ex hibition of boxing than the vicious fight, that was expected when these two met. Kansas was inclined to be the aggressor moot of the time, but this was counterbalanced by the champion's cleverness in sidestep ping his opponent's rushes and out pointing hjm in a great many of the exchanges. The Buffalo boy's best round was the fourth in which he had the up per hand mainly through his ag gressive tactics.

The sixth round was tame and about evenly divided. In all of the other rounds Leon ard had the advantage. The champion's best round was the eighth, in which, he landed a right hook to the head; a left to the face and a smash ing right uppercnt in cuick order, In the eleventh two lefthand smashes in the face drew blood from the Buffalo man's mouth. A crowd estimated at 30.000 wit nssed the battle. There were two minor bouts of fovr and six rounds and then Mosherg.

The winners also hit the ball, touching up Conklin, a new twirler, at intervals. Conklin, a newcomer, snowed evi dence of having the goods, but hia support was rather shaky at times, errors of omission were more cost ly than these chalked up.
