Yesterday afternoon Jimmy Dunn, Kilbane’s manager, came into The Evening World office with Ha Mo- bo ad sone of the managers of the club: MeMahon puiled @ roll from his ‘end counted out $8,500 into the hand of the sporting editor—five new $1,000 bills and a $600 bill, Then he turned to go out. “"Wedt a moment,” 14. “Don't said MoMahon, “I you want @ rete! “Forget it don’t want any receipt from you. Just hand the money to Kilbane the day after the fight. Much obliged.” And he waved himself out.

Not long ago Packey McFarland ad- ferted that three or four properly 4 veloped blows are all any boxer needs to master. Kitbane's theory is entirely at odds with this, for he plays no favor- ite in this department of the game, having blows ready for instant use in any emergency. His favorite punch is the left jab, but he docs not devote |much more attention to the develop- |Bent of this than to any of the other jelouts with which he bewildered the |wily Attell and captured the world's jtitle, | LEFT JAB 18 BEST BLOW EVER KNOWN IN BOXING. | ‘My belief,” said tho champion as ho lcame steaming from a hot mill with |one of his aparring partners at training jquarters, “ls that s boxer cannot know jt0o many kinds of punches, Of course |1 lke the left jab better than any of |them because I think it ts the greatest dlow known; but I do not neglect any Of the others in perfecting myself in it, “During my training for every fight I devote a certain amount of attention toward improving all the punches I use —and I use most of them—so there will be no emergency for which I am not prepared. I can't belleve that it 1s pos: alble for a boxer to t to the top unless he uses every kind of punch he |can think of. In the first place, if on |opponent knows you are going to use lealy certain Kinds. of tiowe except when forced to change your st: ot attack he has an advantage right at the start, On the other hand, if he doesn't know what you are likely to uso and te pretty sure he {s likely to get Just what he ten't figuring on the man with a big variety of punches has & distinct advantage.” KNOWS HOW TO U: HI8 BLEN- DER LEGS, The firm thing one notices about Kil- bane {s his unusually slender legs.
