OPINIONS ON FIGHT BY ONE BUGS BAER.

1 Sticking Willard into the same ring with Dempsey is like trying to raise cabbage and rabbits on the same farm. Jack will knock him for a row of Chinese pagodas. He has about as much chance as one apple in an orphan asylum. By the time that Jess powders i Dempsey’s nose with that Djer Kiss I left a few times, Jack will be wishing that he was back home in a nice, safe tornado. The fight is as one-sided as the heels on a bowlegged hobo’s shoes. ■*’’ ' Place a thousand-smacker bet on Willard’s beak watch it grow. The money, not the beak. Jess will flatten him like a wet sock in a wash wringer. Dempsey has no more business there than a guy with an appetite has in Childs. Jess mixing it up with Dempsey is like a bear fighting bumble bees. ] When the bees go away the fight is over. They buzz that Willard is a lobster, but remember that those birds are dangerous. Wheh they’re alive they have claws, and when they’re dead they give you ptomaine poisoning-

If Jess can play a golden harp he will get a chance to use his musical talent about the fifth round. ■ ... v. Willard will drive Dempsey’s teeth so far back into his complexion -that they will cut his hair. Jack will hang him over the ropes like the week’s wash. Dempsey won’t want to see a glove for ten years. He won’t be able to see anything for at least I five. When Willard comes to in the second he yvill pipe a rainbow in the water bucket. Dan O’Leary and Edward Peyton I Weston are the only birds who can bet on Willard and reach home the same year.
