TROUBLE WITH WELL!

Champion Chicago Scrapper Conquers Britisher By a . Dazzling Display of Cleverness.

be called the world's champion boxer straight lefts for the face or hooks and

the British lightweight titleholder, In , result was the same.

Wells received a grilling beating and took it like a man. As soon as McFarland had sized up the Englishman he went to work like a skilled mechanic. With stinging left-handers that were propelled with speed and accuracy he made Wells bleed from the nose. Then lie cut open the left ear and also split the Briton's lip, with the result that before the bout was half over Wells presented a gory spectacle. In spite- of this successful assault Wells never stopped trying to land a wild wallop. That was tho only chance he had. He could not outbox the Chicago fighter and when it came to inlighting he found that Packey was his master. McFarland soon became convinced that he had a comparatively easy mark before him and began to let up. He slapped Wells with the open gloves at tfmes and then slugged him with clinched hands. Wells swung for the head until he was discouraged. Packey either ducked or blocked these blows in a way that made the holder of Lord Lonsdale's belt look like an amateur. Wells himself seemed aware of hi strying predicament, for he took , half a dozen smashes in the face at times without trying to retaliate. It was thought by many that McFarland tempered his blows with mercy .near the end of the fight, for he contented himself with fancy footwork, now and then throwing in a blow that told to his great advantage. Wells was the recipient of a great right hand swing on the Jaw in the second round. The Englishman's knees bent under him and he looked as If he was ready to drop. But his bulldog courage asserted Itself and he quickly recovered.
