CHAPTER XXIV
Milling weakly at times, the men
were beginning to show the terrific
strain. Kilrain dropped helplessly
whenever the chance came, and it was
not until the sixty-eighth round that
Sullivan was able to land a blow that
began to turn the tide toward a cer
tain defeat of his challenger. Kilrain
was falling to the ground to end a
round when the champion delivered a
right upper-cut with all his strength.
It caught Kilrain under the chin, lifted
him from his half-reclining posture,
and sprawled him in a heap against
the ropes. He was in very bad shape
. when his seconds lifted him and car
ried him to his corner.
From then on, Kilrain fought as if
in a daze. Although he never ad
| mitted it, it is more than probable
I that Kilrain was, even then, out, but
! fighting on mechanically with a fight
| er's spirit. He slipped vainly and
f skidded around the ring as Sullivan
j vainly tried to put over a blow that
f would finish the fight.
| In the seventy-fifth round Kilrain
| caught a very light tap to the neck,
I but he reeled and went down under it.
1 He had to be assisted to his feet and
1 to his corner. Once seated there,
f Charley Mitchell left him and walked
| to the Sullivan corner, where he again
j proposed that the bout be called a
1 draw. Sullivan loked at him contemp
I tuously and growled:
| “Let him stand up and fight like a
? man. We'll call it no draw till it’s
| over.”
| Mitchell carried the news back to
J the Kilrain corner and Mike Donovan,
1 another of the Kilrain supporters,
j picked up a sponge from the water
1 bucket, walked to the center of the
| ring and threw it into the air. The
I fight was over. Sullivan had gained
| the victory by a knockout, but it was
- over one of the most courageous men
he ever had met. Kilrain protested
vainly and wept when Donovan car
ried the sponge to the center of the
ring, and afterward he told friends his
heart had been broken.
The fight was the last ever held in
this country with bare knuckles, under
London prize ring rules. It left John L.
Sullivan the champion under this code,
an honor which never has been
wrested from him. When he again
fought j-this time to meet James J
Corbett, it was with gloves.
The bout dispelled any belief held
by spofts followers that John L. Sul
livan \\(as through. The hero had re
turned’and he was just much of a
hero a3 ever.
Both men had a lot of trouble before
they finally settled their differences
with tine law over the Richburg fight
Sulliva| was hauled from a train in
Tennessee as he was passing through
on his ‘way back east and haled be
fore a j court. He stated afterwarc
that it cost him more than $25,000 tc
get out,of his difficulties.

OUR AVIATORS IN ITALY
DESIGNATED AS COWBOYS
ROME, Peb. 20 (by mail).-—“Flying
Cowboys” is the popular title given
here to Uncle Sam’s first fighting
corps in Italy. The American aviator
officers and students located at a
training camp in southern Italy are
frequently visitors in Rome and as
they all wear the United States army’s
service hat. popularly known here as
the “cowboy” hat, the word cowboy
has been applied to them.
That these aviators are regarded as
cowboys was illustrated by an incident
with a cab driver that occured when a
party of them were on leave in Rome
and went outside the city walls to sec
the Catacombs of St. Calixtus on the
Appian Way. When the aviators got
out of the cab near the entrance to
the burial place of the early Christ
ians, they asked the cab driver to wait,
so he could drive them back to the
city.
“But my horse can't stand the trip
( back with such a heavy load.” he ex
plained. “It’s war time and we haven’t
corn or wheat to feed him, so he’s too
weak. I’ve got a family to support
and I must take good care of this
horse. You cowboys ought to under
stand how it is.”
“Very well, we’ll buy your horse,
J won’t we fellows?” spoke up one of
) the aviators who had just been paid
I off. “If he’s still alive when we get
back to town we will sell him back to
you.”
While the proposition was made in
' j all seriousness the driver, thinking he
' was about to be made the victim of
some wild west trick, abruptly refused
and drove off with his plug, leacing
! the “cowboys” to walk back.
