Jeffries, cham | pion of the worid, after four rounds of | fighting to-night at Sutton's Broadway Theater. The decision was well earned. Jeffries had agreed that if he could no stop Munroe in four rounds he would for- feit $200. He failed to stop the burly min- er, and Referee Duncan McDonald had nothing to do but give the decision to Munroe. When the gong sounded at the end of the fourth rocund, and before Mc- Donald had time to announce that Mun- 1902. 33 COW UNDER THE Beanstalk,” Which Merry Bovine Helps Furnish Fun in “Jack CALCIUM IN TIVOLI EXTRAVAGANZA Is a Great Success.

The victory of Munroe over Jeffries was { brought about in the third number of the athletic programme which the champion of the world and Robert Fitzsimmons are glving from city to city on their tour un- der the management of Clark Ball and William Delaney. When the first round started he opened proceedings by pushing Jeffries’ head back with a stiff right jab on the nose. The champion winced and got a left on the head. He saw he was against a foeman who meant to try to | stay four rounds, and he waded in. Mun- roe was-not to be easily found, however, and delighted the spectators by cleverly | ducking vicious swings and getting away from hard leads.

In the third round Jeffries showed more championship form than at | any time during the go. He landed on Munroe’s jaw good and hard and again the miner went to the floor. Twice after- ward Munroe went down and wisely fook the nine secpnds' rest. He was there not to whip Jeffries, but to stay four rounds, and he used his head well. Sometimes he clinched to save himself, but he invariably got the worst of the clinthes, as Jeffries never failed to land on the body. After one of the clinches Jeffries got in a right swing on the body and Munroe went down to stay had not | the gong saved him. When the men came | up for the fourth round the crowd was { wild with excitement and from all sides | came cries: *“Stick to him, Jack,” and Jack was sticking.

He was noted for his tremendous legs and was famil- jarly known to the sporting fraternity as “Plano Legs.” ‘When not playing football Munroe acted as trainer for “Doc” Flynn, Jack Moffatt and ‘“Philadelphia” Jack O'Brien. He was a big, good-natured fellow and was popular. Munroe fought a preliminary battle in this city and was knocked out. He knew little about the boxing game at that time, although he had past masters of the art to box with. Munroe was as slow as the proverbial “jce wagon.” He could take a punch, and when it came to roughing it he was there with both hands. 5 Munroe lost his standing as an amateur | for accepting money as trainer and for fighting professionally.
