New Haven, Feh. 6.—John Bunyan, often known upon the diamond as old Dr. Bunyan_ said yesterday that he retired from the game forever. Some of his admirers would like to see him back in harness and stingir out the long line hits that he made specialty of, but he says he has been out of the game for two years and as he served fourteen years at the had sion. Bunyan’'s farewell tour was with the well known New Haven team and he is well satisfied that he ended his ath- letic career in a New Haven uniform. He lived in Springfield for some time after he quit playing ball and recent- ly moved to this city. While living in this city, he had charge of the Yale baggage express station and developed his big muscles by smashing the Yale trunks. The station was abollshed some time ago.

Although de- feated in his first bout, Jack fought again in a couple of days, and was victorious over some of the best men of the ring in the next few years.
