But Luther M Carty found out that stirring Willard ‘up was like tossing a brick Into a bee- hive. He slammed Jess, and Joes jabbed Luther's head back between his shoul- @erblades and nearly lifted him from hia fect with uppercuts. He beat Mc- Carty that night. When he fought Soldier Kearns here he took the bout as a joke. Through the first few rounds he cavorted about the ring like a circus clown, laughing with unaffected good humor at the Sol- dier's wild efforts to connect with the kind of a punch he landed on One Willard ducking under Round Davis, fast Kearns began whanging away at Willard'’s body.

O¢ course Morris was put against @ fellow who wan very good at that time—Jim Flynn. Flynn gave the fat ané awkward giant auch a beating that fobody in the Garden that night had the slightest suspicion that Morris would ever fight again. No man not endowed with unlimited courage and « fair ehare of self conceit would have fought again, for that matter, But Carl Showed the stuff that was in him when he went quietly to work again at tho New Polo, as acon as he was able to appear on the strects.

When he started again he knocked out Jack Geyer of Denver and beat a gum- ber of other men, His two flehts with Jim Stewart, then at his best, were corkers, But the New York public couldn't forget what a show Fiyan had made of the giant. When Carl's name was mentioned people said: “Oh, yea—wonderfully game. But he'll never di And that @nded it.
