Alas for the training that got him in bad. They wired him instructions from Argentine’s strand, they told him by mail how to use cither hand; by registered letters they guided his feet, and told him by wareless what thmgs he should” eat. They sent him blue prints and an_engineer’s maps, and volumes by Euclid and other old chaps. And Firpo had Dempsey so plaguey near out that Jack only needed an opportune clout; a biff on the beezer, a swat on the chm, and Firpo, the Bull of the Pampas, would win! But while he was striv- ing the rules to rccall, the cable- grams, letters, and poslcards and all, and groping around in the back of his head for pointers and counsel that somebody said, Jack Dempsey revived from his ladylike swoon, and pricked all his hopes as you prick a balloon. The Bull will come back when he's rested a spell, all ready to scrap at the sound of the bell, and if he is trained in a sensible way, I'll say to Jack Dempsey, “Good night,” and “Good day!” (Copyright.)
