Bout for Blood to Settle Old Score Is Gory Contest Society Man Gets Worst. PHILADELPHIA. Sept 21. A special to the New York Times says: "There was an old score to settle when A. J. Drexel Blddle met Phila delphia Jack O'Brien In the ring this afternoon at a private West Walnut street gymnasium. Last Winter, as a wind-up to the Indoor season of the Merlon Cricket Club. Tony Blddle, as he Is known In club life, met the former world's champion middleweight In a hot bout. The society man, poet and athlete waa 111 and was beaten by O'Brien. "Blddle has persistently asked O'Brien for a return match. The latter Is train ing for a six-round bout with Sam Langford. who aspires to be the heavy weight champion of the world. Blddle has beer, getting himself fit for a hunting trip In the northern part of Maine. Neither could complain of lack of physical condition. "In the presence of a half doxen club men the men fought It out In the form of the hardest rounds ever witnessed in this vicinity. At the end Blddle was bleeding at the nose and mouth, while his left eye gave Indication of taking on mourning. O'Brien's Hps were swollen, his nose was slightly flattened1, and a big red patch on his ribs showed where Biddies vicious right-hand body swings had landed. Both men were nearly exhausted and there was little to choose between them. "Today's contest was one of the most exciting and vicious that has ever been seen in this city. O'Brien had his pres tige to defend, while Biddle was eager to wipe out the old score. In the last round science was thrown to the winds, and the men slugged with rights and lefts until the timekeeper called a halt. They shook hands, but it waa evident that each was eager to con tinue. Friends of both stopped them." NURSE DROWNS HERSELF Gets Bad News In Letter and Jumps Into River. SPOKANE. Wash.. Oct. 1 (Special.)
