If tournament today by F. G. Lo Charley had taken care of himself, 6-3, he would-haye been a champion un- doubtediy. As it is, he is the most finished boxer of his day. Against Stone, the Adouls showed the excellent results of the months of training in which he has been indulging. Ad never knew there were so many boxing gloves as land- ed upon him in several of the rounds. He was outboxed about as complete- ly as one good man was ever out- boxed by another good man. Charley sent in his long left and right hooks, stepping in and out avoiding return blows with utmost skill, And all this was done in the face of a short arm body attack most difficult to handle. By the time the 12 rounds ended, Charley was getting tired. It was a good thing for him the battle did not go 15 frames. As it was, he captur- ed all but: three rounds in convine- ing fashion.
