Science defeats Brawn in
Lumber Camn Fistic Battle
Most interesting Battle of the year proves Steve O'Mara, Then I'll Come
the little man better than Harrigan, the big man. , Back to you
Monday and Tuesday .
STAR DAYS
Wm Russel
Out of the undergrowth comes a
gigantic figure, Harrigan, a lumber
jack bully, crouching with bis great
arms tautly drawn up in battle tense
ness. As his ancestors entered a fray,
so did this brute. His great frame
heaved with the r.nttclpatory excite
ment of combat. He crouched lower
and lower as he neared his adversary.
Then with a giant effort, he leapt for
ward to strike.
In tlie centre of the road stood
Steve O'Mara, tlie modern num. His
fists poised in perfect defense forma
tion. His slender, sinewy figure :i
contrast to tho oncoming giant.
Strength, almost beyond the belief of
man, verged on combat with science
and brains. 'Twas brute force against
inentulity plus physical strength.
The human mastodon met the per
fect machjno. The compact was tre
mendous, the crnsh of bodies, the
fascinating smack of fist against
flesh, the cringe of a bono, the crush
of a clenched fist, the heave of a
breast, the thud of a falling body
denoted the first incident of the
struggle. The mastodon arose, the
perfect machine stood poised, cooly
awaiting the second rush. As Harri
gan rushes forward Stove O'Mara
performs a half pivot, tlie forward
leg bends slightly, the nhoulder ls
pressed 'far back, the left hand
curves, swoops down, reaches In be
tween tho flaying arms of the giant
and lands with a crushing twist on
tho huge projecting Jaw. The rush
is stopped. The giant blinks, he is
slightly duzed.
Angered now to red heat, the brute
poises an instant and then, with low
ered head, he rushes in. The perfect
machine changes his attltudo. He
stoops slowly, until his sinewy right ,
fist is on a level with tlie lowered ;
chin of his untugonist but ho mis
calculates and tlie giant swings a
terrible blow to the slender man's
cheek. The blow would have felled
an ox. Ills rush was so great It car-:
Mud him past tlie falling body of tho
man. He turns, his foot is raised !
and is about to crash down onto the j
race of the smaller man. Steve!
O'Mara twists, and with a super-j
human upheaval of his body he is
erect. SteVe O'Mara, the thinking ;
man, retreats as Harrigan rushes, the ''
bully mistaking the backward move-'
ment for fear, dashes blindly for-1
ward. A resounding crash of born
against flesh and tl.o hum 1, .,11, ..1 ,
man-beast slowly falls. The slender
figure In an Instant is transformed.
More like a panther than a hutnan
being, the knowing left fist of tho
smaller adversary sweeps through the
mr, swiicnes downward, curves In
lands with all the power of a per-1
feclly coordinated system lands on '
the cheek of the dazed and falling !
brute. It is the end. 1
But tho girl? She shrinks away,1
horrified, while the blood bespattered
combatants gather their bearings I
The Intense crowd lauds the victor,
the beaten man arlghts himself, she, I
tlie girl for whom they fought, rushes i
like a frightened fawn, far In tho
