JEANETTE SHINES AS TEACHER Chapter XXIX By GEORGES CARPENTIER (Copyright 1920, by United Feature Syndicate. All rights reserved. Reproduction prohibited) The fight wth Jeanette, aside from being & mosft disappointing encoun- ter, did this much. It made both Des- camps and myself realize that we had made no mistake when we decided that I should enter the heavyweight division. The bouts with Wells were too short to give us a line on my real ability to stand up against a heavy- weight, but I had gone fifteen rounds with Jeanette and both of us knew in our hearts that I had given the negro a beating. The bout with Jeanette was anoth- er remunerative venture for me and instead of looking at once for more ring encounters I began to spend some of the money that had come in- to my hands in recent bouts. First of all, I bought a home for my moth- er and father and with it went a cafe in Lens They carried on his busi- ness until the Germans came, which was not very long after, and then it of course was wrecked. My own for- tune also was taken away, so that when the war ended I found myself with very little money. I rested for a long time fight with Jeanette ana Phillippe Robinson, a fighter who worried me very little, for I knocked him out in three rounds at Beviers, 1 began to consider myself worthy of an engagement that would bring me high honors about this time, and looked to the United States to suppl we with what would be necess: for that elevation. In this country tfen boxing followers were in the throes of a search that would bring out a man competent to wrest the heavyweight title from Jack Johnson. “White hopes™ were the fashion. The country teemed with them. Various tournaments, as [ recall, were held to determine which of these men should be called best of the white race and Gunboat Smith eventually came to be looked upon as the leader of the divison. London promoters came to me and asked if 1 would be willing to fight the American for the championship of the white race and I assented im- mediately. My part of the proceeds was $20,000. 1 knew that Americans are particu- larly interested in this encounter, for it resulted In the defeat of their en- trant. True, the defeat was the re- suit of a foul blow, struck at me while I was down, but it was, none the less, a defeat, and probably much less painful tha nthe deeat I feel I could have administered to Smith had the bount continued. Americans have had numerous explanations of this set before them, but I want » to feel that in detailing it myself 1 shall endeavor to be truthful in all particulars. after my then met Georges and Madame Home Carpentier m stick our heads from the car windows than a cheer set up, and when we stepped from the carriage the demon- stration grew in volume. The people seized me and carried me to a waiting carriage. It was a very pleasant sensation to think that these people of a foreign land should make such a fuss over a visiting pugilist. It was a fine dem- onstration of their affection and they did not ce it until I was set down at the hotel and had vanished inside its doors. More than one woman kissed me as I was going into the carriage, a fact that makes me blush now when I recall it. Reaching my room in the hotel I yeilded to demands that T present my- self at the window The street was filed with people, all shouting at the tops of their voices. I bowed and bowed time after time and waved my hand, but they would not g« way My eyes filled with tears of joy. I could neither speak nor think coher- ently. , The thought that I, an ob- scure French boy, was being coddled by the English public in such fashion was overwhelming. I tried to think of what I had done to deserve such treatment and could only recall that T had twice beaten their champion. That I should be given such a welcome for that seemed an impossibility I have always felt that this bout was one of the most shameful that I ever took part in because of the ac- tions of my opponent, not through anything that I did, I think of it now with a feeling of horror, or it never occurred to me that an American could be so brutal as to strike an op- ponent while the latter was down A great to-do was made the bout.

Then one day John heard of & place in the far West where golden oppor- tunities awaited young men of pur- pose and character, and he decided to 80. It was when he was bidding Allison good-by that the vine-covered cottage dream came to him again, and, act- ing on a sudden impulse, the next mo- ment he was telling her all about it. ‘Would she be willing to start life with him in such a humble home? Would she wait for him? Then suddenly he stopped, abashed at what he had done. With flushed cheeks the gifi’ told him of her career, and the ladder of fame she must climb. No, she couldn’t promise. They could be friends, though—good friends—but nothing more. She was right, of course, John reasoned. Then he determined anzw to-amass a fortune, and some day, aft- er she had won fame, he would lay Ms wealth at her feet. Yes, he would wait until he could offer her a man- sion instead of & vine-covered cottage. In the days that followed letters passed between the two occasionally, but it was five years before they met agaln, in an Eastern city. Here they spent eseveral happy days in each oth- er's company, and their friendship diepened, but they parted again just “good friends” for the young man'’s fortune was not yet made. Again the years slipped quickly away and at last it seemed as if John's dream of wealth was to be realized. One day he received a letter from Alli- son telling him that she had secured a much coveted position in a city school. After this message he applied himself to his business with renewed energy.
