New York, March 4. "Knockout"

Brown made Ad Wolgast, the light

weight champion of the world, figure

as a preliminary fighter last night in j the ten round battle at the National Sporting club. There never was a second in which the Brown admirers felt worried. This is the second time within a month that Brown has gained a popular verdict over the champion. Brown always carried the fight to his rival's corner. In the second round he gave the champion a walloping that he will remember. The story of the entire fight can be told in a few words. Brown would whip over that stinging left to Wolgast's face or body, and the champion would hug like a bear." At this method Wolgast was a wonder. He could slam a few into Brown's body, but the New Yorker always steered to safety.

' In the last three rounds Wolgast threw what little science he had to the winds and tried to land a haymaker,

but he never got a chance. The last round was a hummer.

Brown, confident he had the victory in

his grasp, tried to win by a knockout

Wolgast was just as determined, and in one clinch both rolled out of. thi

ring. The pair were so lacking in

science that they repeatedly missed by

such big margins that they appeared

ridiculous.

The records proclaim Wolgast

champion, but if he again meets the boy who whipped him twice so far he

will have to go like fury to retain It.
