When Jim crinkled up his forehead and looked on her with a love smile that
reached the remotest boundary of his face, he looked just the way he
looked at Ruhlin in the third round. But the girl didn't seem to mind. She
knew he was only funning, and she cuddled right up to his solar plexus and
said:

"I am your Nell, the same saucy Nell that sported among the daisies when
we were a little boy and girl together." That statement made Jim look
sincere.

It must be confessed that the epilogue was the most successful part of the
piece. The epilogue was a more or less rapid three-round go. Mr. Yank
Kennedy, an eminent pugilistic artist from California, was advertised as

Hennesy went down for the count of nine. It was plain, however, from the
cordial, if somewhat unsteady, handshake he gave Mr. Jeffries as the
curtain fell that Mr. Hennesy harbored no artistic jealousy.

Wellington, Nelson, Grant, Lee, and Moltke; of Bismarck,
Gladstone, and Lincoln; of Garibaldi and Bolivar; of
Stephenson, Fulton, Morse, and Edison; of Darwin, Huxley,
and Emerson; of Wagner and Verdi; of Byron and Scott, of
Tennyson and Victor Hugo, of Dickens and Balzac, of
Hawthorne and Poe.

In the nineteenth century were all the glories of the
Victorian Era, and in it slavery was abolished in the United
States and serfdom in Russia. It saw the liberatio
